 The Histories (Oxford World's Classics) by Herodotus, translated by Robin A. H. Waterfield English | May 15, 2008 | ISBN: 0199535663 | True EPUB/PDF | 840 pages | 20.2/41.6 MB "The father of history," as Cicero called him, and a writer possessed of remarkable narrative gifts, enormous scope, and considerable charm, Herodotus has always been beloved by readers well-versed in the classics. Compelled by his desire to "prevent the traces of human events from being erased by time," Herotodus recounts the incidents preceding and following the Persian Wars. He gives us much more than military history, though, providing the fullest portrait of the classical world of the 5th and 6th centuries.  The High History of the Holy Graal By Anonymous, Sebastian Evans 2009 | 369 Pages | ISBN: 1409926761 | PDF | 2 MB According to Christian mythology, the Holy Grail was the dish, plate, or cup used by Jesus at the Last Supper, said to possess miraculous powers. The connection of Joseph of Arimathea with the Grail legend dates from Robert de Boron's Joseph d'Arimathie (late 12th century) in which Joseph receives the Grail from an apparition of Jesus and sends it with his followers to Great Britain; building upon this theme, later writers recounted how Joseph used the Grail to catch Christ's blood while interring him and that in Britain he founded a line of guardians to keep it safe. The quest for the Holy Grail makes up an important segment of the Arthurian cycle, appearing first in works by ChrГ©tien de Troyes - a French poet and trouvГЁre who flourished in the late 12th century. His work on Arthurian subjects represents some of the best of medieval literature. Perceval, the Story of the Grail (French: Perceval, le Conte du Graal) is an unfinished romance probably written between 1181 and 1191. Though ChrГ©tien did not complete it, it had an enormous impact on the literary world of the Middle Ages. Over the following 50 years, four different poets took up the challenge left by ChrГ©tien and continued the adventures of Perceval and Gawain.

The Final Energy Crisis By Sheila Newman 2008 | 337 Pages | ISBN: 0745327184 | PDF | 2 MB With oil reaching $100 a barrel in January 2008 and the US facing challenges to dollar hegemony, few people would now deny that there is an energy crisis and that it is linked to economic uncertainty. However, the mainstream lacks a theory to explain this apparently sudden challenge to optimistic expectations of long-term economic growth and an end to world poverty. The Final Energy Crisis provides political explanations to fill that gap.The authors engage with depletion trends in oil, gas, coal, uranium, soil and biodiversity. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, they study energy trends, prospects, assets and liabilities in different political systems and regions, including the US, Venezuela, China, Africa, the ex-Soviet Union, North Korea, Japan, France and Australia. Far from being a doom-laden work on peak oil, this book offers practical suggestions for readers keen to be part of the solution to resource depletion.This comprehensively updated edition includes 13 new chapters and thorough revisions of existing material.
