Over the past half century, opinion has been divided as to the role
of Lee Harvey Oswald in the assassination of President John F
Kennedy. The rumours began to spread almost immediately that the
accused assassin may have been working for or was being manipulated
by individuals involved with the United States Intelligence
apparatus. The most tantalising piece of evidence came from none
other than Congressman Gerald R Ford, who had served as a Warren
Commission member in 1964. Ford revealed in his (co-written) 1965
book "Oswald: Portrait of the Assassin" that the FBI had an
'undercover agent' in Dallas at the time of the assassination and
that that agent was none other than Lee Harvey Oswald, the alleged
assassin of President Kennedy. The two most asked questions in the
whole JFK assassination story remain unanswered: Who was Lee Harvey
Oswald and what was his role on 22 November 1963? In this book
Glenn B Fleming looks at these claims and presents a compelling
case that all is not as we have been told about accussed assassin
Lee Harvey Oswald.
A bold rethinking of the Civil Rights Movement through the lens of
Black theater "Freedom, Now!" This rallying cry became the most
iconic phrase of the Civil Rights Movement, challenging the
persistent command that Black people wait-in the holds of slave
ships and on auction blocks, in segregated bus stops and
schoolyards-for their long-deferred liberation. In Black Patience,
Julius B. Fleming Jr. argues that, during the Civil Rights
Movement, Black artists and activists used theater to energize this
radical refusal to wait. Participating in a vibrant culture of
embodied political performance that ranged from marches and sit-ins
to jail-ins and speeches, these artists turned to theater to
unsettle a violent racial project that Fleming refers to as "Black
patience." Inviting the likes of James Baldwin, Lorraine Hansberry,
Alice Childress, Douglas Turner Ward, Duke Ellington, and Oscar
Brown Jr. to the stage, Black Patience illuminates how Black
artists and activists of the Civil Rights era used theater to
expose, critique, and repurpose structures of white supremacy. In
this bold rethinking of the Civil Rights Movement, Fleming contends
that Black theatrical performance was a vital technology of civil
rights activism, and a crucial site of Black artistic and cultural
production.
Geopressure drives fluid flow and is important for hydrocarbon
exploration, carbon sequestration, and designing safe and
economical wells. This concise guide explores the origins of
geopressure and presents a step-by-step approach to characterizing
and predicting pressure and least principal stress in the
subsurface. The book emphasizes how geology, and particularly the
role of flow along permeable layers, drives the development and
distribution of subsurface pressure and stress. Case studies, such
as the Deepwater Horizon blowout, and laboratory experiments, are
used throughout to demonstrate methods and applications. It
succinctly discusses the role of elastoplastic behaviour, the full
stress tensor, and diagenesis in pore pressure generation, and it
presents workflows to predict pressure, stress, and hydrocarbon
entrapment. It is an essential guide for academics and professional
geoscientists and petroleum engineers interested in predicting
pressure and stress, and understanding the role of geopressure in
geological processes, well design, hydrocarbon entrapment, and
carbon sequestration.

This book examines the deep and lengthy crisis of legitimacy
triggered by the death of Prince Juan of Castile and Aragon in 1497
and the subsequent ascent of Juana I to the throne in 1504.
Confined by historiography and myth to the madwoman's attic, Juana
emerges here as a key figure at the heart of a period of tremendous
upheaval, reaching its peak in the war of the Comunidades, or
comunero uprising of 1520-1522. Gillian Fleming traces the
conflicts generated by the ambitions of Juana's father, husband and
son, and the controversial marginalisation and imprisonment of
Isabel of Castile's legitimate heir. Analysing Juana's problems and
strategies, failures and successes, Fleming argues that the period
cannot be properly understood without taking into account the long
shadow that Juana I cast over her kingdoms and over a crucial
period of transition for Spain and Europe.
Of all the millions of words written in anger or certainty
regarding arguably the greatest murder mystery of all time, the
assassination of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy, one testimony
remains glaringly absent. The deposition of Lee Harvey Oswald, the
alleged assassin, was silenced by Jack Ruby's bullet before he
could tell his story to a shocked and grieving world. The Two Faces
of Lee Harvey Oswald is a unique work. No other book in the public
domain concentrates on Lee Oswald's point of view; a young man
caught up by, then hopelessly trapped in, history. From the moment
of his return from the Soviet Union, Oswald became tangled in a web
of intrigue, deception and murder. And yet, no amount of
speculation or rumour mongering can lend history in general and
Oswald in particular, his own words. "I'm just a patsy!" Oswald
screamed, as he was led along a corridor in the Dallas Police
Building, shortly after his arrest that fateful weekend. We will
never truly know how innocent, or guilty, Oswald was. But his
memory deserves a hearing. The most accurate hearing possible.

In Wesleyan Pneumatology and Evangelical Mission: Renewing the
Spark Jody B. Fleming argues that missiology in a Wesleyan context
has been heavily influenced by the Western worldview and needs
renewal. Spirituality is central to living in many non-western
cultures, integrated with the physical world of everyday life.
Wesleyan traditions may need to renew and strengthen the
pneumatology found in their mission theory and praxis. As the
center of Christianity is shifting to the global south, Pentecostal
and charismatic expressions of the faith are becoming more
prominent. Without forfeiting their solid foundations, what might
the Wesleyan traditions learn from their theological cousins about
engagement with the Holy Spirit? How might pneumatology be renewed
in order to address spiritual beliefs found in other cultures in
both global and local settings? Renewal also includes the
indigenous voice as essential for understanding cultural dynamics
and spirituality. Contextualization is not new to missiology and so
mission theory is explored from Latin American scholars as another
point for renewal. Partnerships in mission and the role of the Holy
Spirit are highlighted in the of field work conducted in Venezuela.
In Renewing the Spark the author suggests that a fresh look at
pneumatology will more effectively articulate the gospel in
holistic and spirit-centered non-western cultures.
