The political history of the twentieth century can be viewed as the history of democracy’s struggle against its external enemies: fascism and communism. This struggle ended with the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of the Soviet regime. Some people think that democracy now faces new enemies: Islamic fundamentalism, religious extremism and international terrorism and that this is the struggle that will define our times. Todorov disagrees: the biggest threat to democracy today is democracy itself. Its enemies are within: what the ancient Greeks called 'hubris'. Todorov argues that certain democratic values have been distorted and pushed to an extreme that serves the interests of dominant states and powerful individuals. In the name of ‘democracy’ and ‘human rights’, the United States and some European countries have embarked on a crusade to enlighten some foreign populations through the use of force. Yet this mission to ‘help’ others has led to Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo, to large-scale destruction and loss of life and to a moral crisis of growing proportions. The defence of freedom, if unlimited, can lead to the tyranny of individuals. Drawing on recent history as well as his own experience of growing up in a totalitarian regime, Todorov returns to examples borrowed from the Western canon: from a dispute between Augustine and Pelagius to the fierce debates among Enlightenment thinkers to explore the origin of these perversions of democracy. He argues compellingly that the real democratic ideal is to be found in the delicate, ever-changing balance between competing principles, popular sovereignty, freedom and progress. When one of these elements breaks free and turns into an over-riding principle, it becomes dangerous: populism, ultra-liberalism and messianism, the inner enemies of democracy.

Dr. Art Robinson reached the pinnacles of success in life only to hit rock-bottom. He lost everything - his career, his family, his reputation. It was in those moments of darkness when he had nothing and no one left by his side that he saw the light of the Lord. He realized that God had taken away those things from him that he had loved more than he loved Him. When that happened, he realized that God comes first. And so he picked up the pieces and rebuilt his life, by God's infinite mercy.In this book, Dr. Robinson recounts the events of his life from early childhood to adulthood. Herein are tales of violence, alcohol dependence, loss and self-destruction. It was only in time that Dr. Robinson realized that the battle between self and temptations could have only one winner. If the Lord chooses to save you, you will emerge out of the depths of darkness to light - no matter how impossible it may seem. Ultimately, the trajectory of Dr. Robinson's life proves that there is something profound within every human being. There is something in each of us that calls us to our Lord. You can say this is the story of every man who journeys from a life of reckless hedonism to a life of truth. This is the odyssey of an ordinary man made special by the grace of God.

He's hunted Soviet submarines, walked the corridors of power in Washington, helped create government agencies, and has done business in foreign capitals. Now, Dr. Charles Skillas applies the same technology principles to unmask the real sources and causes of subconscious sabotage, where the terms defense, intelligence, and foreign attachment take on very different meanings. Using his own life and healing as an example, Dr. Skillas deftly transfers his defense technology background to his new career of clearing the submerged minefields of the psyche. Defeat The Enemy Within shows you * how to find help to finally resolve long standing problems that have resisted solution * why traditional therapy doesn't usually work for long term solutions * what you must do for permanent change Dr. Skillas draws on his defense industry background and 23 years experience as a hypnotherapist to blend traditional hypnotherapy, past life regression, spirit attachment, Chinese herbal and energetic medicine, and the underlying wisdom of diverse world cultures to banish the inner shadows that keep you in misery.

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for History Finalist for the National Book Award Finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize "Impressively researched and beautifully crafted…a brilliant account of slavery in Virginia during and after the Revolution." —Mark M. Smith, Wall Street Journal Frederick Douglass recalled that slaves living along Chesapeake Bay longingly viewed sailing ships as "freedom’s swift-winged angels." In 1813 those angels appeared in the bay as British warships coming to punish the Americans for declaring war on the empire. Over many nights, hundreds of slaves paddled out to the warships seeking protection for their families from the ravages of slavery. The runaways pressured the British admirals into becoming liberators. As guides, pilots, sailors, and marines, the former slaves used their intimate knowledge of the countryside to transform the war. They enabled the British to escalate their onshore attacks and to capture and burn Washington, D.C. Tidewater masters had long dreaded their slaves as "an internal enemy." By mobilizing that enemy, the war ignited the deepest fears of Chesapeake slaveholders. It also alienated Virginians from a national government that had neglected their defense. Instead they turned south, their interests aligning more and more with their section. In 1820 Thomas Jefferson observed of sectionalism: "Like a firebell in the night [it] awakened and filled me with terror. I considered it at once the knell of the union." The notes of alarm in Jefferson's comment speak of the fear aroused by the recent crisis over slavery in his home state. His vision of a cataclysm to come proved prescient. Jefferson's startling observation registered a turn in the nation’s course, a pivot from the national purpose of the founding toward the threat of disunion. Drawn from new sources, Alan Taylor's riveting narrative re-creates the events that inspired black Virginians, haunted slaveholders, and set the nation on a new and dangerous course.
