  • MY JOURNEY INTO THE HEART OF TERROR

    An alarming and enlightening first-hand account of what’s really going on behind the borders of the Islamic State.
    ISIS, IS, the ISLAMIC State. It’s an organization that has taken on chilling associations due to the horrific deeds committed in its name. ISIS beheads journalists and yet one, Jurgen Todenhofer, was invited to visit its fighters in Mosul, after months of negotiations. Accompanied by his son, Frederic Todenhofer, who photographed the journey, he asked them to explain their beliefs, motivations, and goals. This book, the most in-depth research conducted on the terror group so far, is the result of those conversations. My Journey into the Heart of Terror shows how the organization grew from its al-Qaeda roots and the role the West has played, both past and present. Along the way, Todenhofer offers startling insights into what ISIS thinks, what it wants and how it can be defeated. Only by understanding our enemies, Todenhofer believes, can we combat ISIS radical, un-Islamic vision and the terror and destruction it brings.

  • OVERRIDE

    Can you really rewire an adult brain?

    In theory the answer is ‘yes’, but there’s a problem: no one seems to know exactly how to do it.

    In Override, science journalist Caroline Williams sets off on a mission to find the answer. Delving into the latest studies on brain plasticity, which indicate that brain games don’t actually do much to make you smarter, she tries to square her findings with the reality of brain plasticity that the brain adapts physically as we learn something new.

    Visiting top neuroscientists in their labs, she volunteers herself as a guinea pig in neuroscience studies, challenging researchers to make real changes to her functioning, but imperfect brain. She seeks to improve on her own weaknesses, such as a limited attention span and a tendency to worry too much, and then branches out into more mysterious areas such as intelligence, creativity, and the perception of time.

    Trying everything from high-tech brain stimulation to meditation, adding bolt-on senses and retraining her stress response, Override is a very intimate, fascinating journey into discovering what neuroscience can really do for us and, crucially, whether it’s worth all the bother.

  • THE HIDDEN HISTORY OF THE JFK ASSASSINATION

    Five decades after one of America’s greatest tragedies, this compelling book pierces the veil of secrecy to document the small, tightly held conspiracy that killed President John F. Kennedy. It explains why he was murdered, and how it was done in a way that forced many records to remain secret for decades.
    The Hidden History of the JFK Assassination draws on exclusive interviews with more than two dozen associates of John and Robert Kennedy, in addition to former FBI, Secret Service, military-intelligence, and Congressional personnel, who provided critical first-hand information. The book also details the FBI confessions of notorious Mafia godfathers Carlos Marcello and Santo Trafficante to reveal exactly who killed JFK.
    Using files and information that have never been published before, Lamar Waldron fully explains for the first time how Marcello and Trafficante committed and got away with the crime of the twentieth century
