Greenland, a name that is in conflict with its current state of ice, ice and more ice. It is also the land that has been in the news about its massive ice cap allegedly melting and going to cause catastrophic sea level rise. Well, that scare-mongering is a gross exaggeration of the truth, yet favoured by politicians, but not based on any proper science. Having been given the privilege of visiting this far-off land I would recommend that everyone puts a visit to this magical mystery land on their travel wish-list. Long before you touch down you may, if the weather is in your favour, view the endless white wilderness and the absolute miracle that Greenland is. It got its name from the Danish mariners who settled there when the climate was so much warmer than today and all around the edges along the coast food was grown and cattle grazed. In those distant days, few if any ever ventured higher up onto the ice cap that already existed long before the Danes discovered Greenland. Highly recommended for the free spirited and free thinkers amongst us. JACK TAYLOR BOOKS OFFER EASY TO READ STORIES AND LOT OF ORIGINAL PHOTOS.

This book explores British policy in Iran against a backdrop of decolonisation to demonstrate the central place this nation had in Britain’s postwar imperial reorientation. Focusing on the period leading up to Operation Ajax and using a wealth of primary sources, it shows that although Iran was not part of Britain’s ‘rose coloured map’, it was a key part of the informal empire; an imperial network sustained through economic and corporate influence. Both a critical bulwark against Soviet expansion and a vital source of oil, successive British governments sought to enhance British power in Iran during and after the Second World War. Highlighting the different forms and textures of British imperialism in the mid-20th century, Jack Taylor shows how as empire was coming to an end in regions such as India and Palestine, imperial interests were reoriented towards other, more profitable areas in the Middle East. However, this book shows that as the British sought to entrench themselves more firmly in Iran, resentment was on the rise in the form of populist nationalism. Demonstrating how British policy makers failed to understand these movements, Oil, Nationalism and British Policy in Iran shows how the US government intervened to restore Iranian autocracy. In doing so, the US supplanted Britain as the foremost power in the Persian Gulf and brought half a century of informal empire to a close.

Examines the representations of migration in African literature, film, and other visual media, with an eye to the stylistic features of these works as well as their contributions to debates on migration This essay collection examines the representations of migration in African literature, film, and other visual media. Inspired by the proliferation of texts focused on this theme and the ongoing migration crises, essays in the volume probe the ways in which African cultural productions shape and are shaped by the migration debates, the contributions these productions make to an understanding of globalization, and the stylistic features of the works. The texts analyzed here include important recent writings and films that have yet to receive considerable scholarly attention, by artists such as Chimamanda Adichie, Teju Cole, Leila Aboulela, Noo Saro-Wiwa, and Marzek Allouache. Current scholarship on migration largely focuses on the journey from Third World spaces to the First World, thereby radically limiting our understanding of migratory flows. This project works against this lopsided analysis ofmigration and considers narratives of return as central to migratory flows. The book also invests in underanalyzed and underrepresented diasporas on the continent including the Lusophone and Indian diasporas. Unlike much scholarship on migration in African cultural studies, which tends to focus primarily on a genre (literature), a region, or a specific language, the current book emphasizes Africa's geographical and linguistic diversity by being attentive to Anglophone, Francophone, and Lusophone areas, as well as an array of texts encompassing various genres.

Malaysia has many different cultures and climates as well as widely varying scenery, so take your pick as to what you'd like to enjoy in this magical land of near-tropical heat and humidity. The most modern architecture can be found in the capital Kuala Lumpur with its famous Petronas Twin Towers, but equally the most deprived areas can be found not far away from the hustle and bustle of modernity. Shopping centres are huge, diverse and cater for all tastes and price-ranges as well as entire floors filled with food outlets. Once out of the traffic jams and city fumes there are massive forests to explore and near-endless gorgeous beaches and several island paradise resorts. The country would warrant several visits to explore all its diverse aspects, one of which could be as a place to retire to from cold and drab Europe JACK TAYLOR BOOKS OFFER EASY TO READ STORIES AND LOT OF ORIGINAL PHOTOS.

Bali, that almost mystical island, so far away from our western world in the warm seas around Indonesia. Those famous Wayang Dolls conjure up a dark world of secret rituals and forbidden practices, but modern Bali is hospitable and friendly, with smiling people everywhere. Some areas close to the airport are by now rather over-exploited but if you take the time to go a little off-road, so to speak, and make Ubud your base, you'll find peace in splendid settings, precious views across valleys and rice paddies, a tolerant and beautiful population and delicious food. There are enough areas to keep you coming back to Bali for many years and I am planning to go back there in November 2014. Hope to see you there JACK TAYLOR BOOKS OFFER EASY TO READ STORIES AND LOT OF ORIGINAL PHOTOS.

Being the smallest inhabited island of the Canary Island archipelago off the West coast of North Africa, El Hierro does not disappoint when it comes to splendid vistas, amazing landscapes and clear signs of its violent volcanic past. Even right now in 2013 there have been plenty earthquakes due to ongoing subterranean volcanism. Living on El Hierro is not for the faint-hearted JACK TAYLOR BOOKS OFFER EASY TO READ STORIES AND LOT OF ORIGINAL PHOTOS.

Holland, officially known as The Netherlands or as the French say at the Eurovision Song Festival: Pays Bas (usually "nil points"). It is indeed the "low lands" with most of the western side of the country, the provinces Zeeland, Zuid Holland and Noord Holland, having been reclaimed from the sea. It's an amazing country quite apart from the ingenuity of the reclaimed land. To maintain its prolonged existence below the level of the ever-present North Sea, the "lower" country is surrounded by dykes, some of which were constructed after the major floods of 1953, but most of them have been around for centuries, initially using the windmills to keep the water at bay, but these days replaced by electric pumping stations. There is a lot of history attached to this tiny country and in almost all villages, towns and cities there are magnificently restored buildings form the 16th and 17th Century. Getting here is easy, as there is a huge airport, Schiphol, with flights from every destination you can think of plus an excellent train network for overland connections to all parts of Europe and also several daily ferry services from Scandinavia and England. This diary gives just a small taste of all that can be enjoyed in the country as a whole and of course specifically in Amsterdam, famous for more than just the majestic old canal serviced buildings.

Cambodia, a country of immense natural beauty, stunning historical heritage, yet scarred by the most brutal and insane suffering imposed upon it by one of its own people in the recent past. The people of Cambodia are as friendly and warm as the sunshine that so readily shines on the million rice paddies but can also make the capital Phnom Penh a veritable dustbowl outside of the rainy season. Take your time to explore this gem of a country, enjoy the myriad of markets, the food stalls and restaurants. Make sure to check the weather patterns before planning a visit there though - in the rainy season you'll need more than sturdy boots to cope with the copious quantity of water that regularly falls from the sky. It's possible to stay in the most modern accommodation and miss the feel of the place, in which case you've not been to the Cambodia that I have had the fortune to visit. You sleep well as well of course JACK TAYLOR BOOKS OFFER EASY TO READ STORIES AND LOT OF ORIGINAL PHOTOS.

Copenhagen is a bustling and lively city with lots of historical buildings but also home to the famous Tivoli and of course the Little Mermaid. Plenty places to have a coffee or a drink and loads of young people make this a must see city for young and old. Most people speak English so language difficulties are minimal. One aspect of this city to keep in mind is the weather Being surrounded by lots of pretty stormy waters, either directly or via a relatively narrow strip of its own land, it can get mighty misty or wet out there, so keep an eye on the longer term forecasts of you're planning a visit. Taking the bus across to Sweden is a must-do that is rarely repeated in any other two countries around the world. JACK TAYLOR BOOKS OFFER EASY TO READ STORIES AND LOT OF ORIGINAL PHOTOS.

This collection asks how we are to address the nuclear question in a post-Cold War world. Rather than a temporary fad, Nuclear Criticism perpetually re-surfaces in theoretical circles. Given the recent events at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant in Japan, the ripple of anti-nuclear sentiment the event created, as well as the discursive maneuvers that took place in the aftermath, we might pause to reflect upon Nuclear Criticism and its place in contemporary scholarship (and society at-large).Scholars who were active in earlier expressions of Nuclear Criticism converse with emergent scholars likewise striving to negotiate the field moving forward. This volume revolves around these dialogic moments of agreement and departure; refusing the silence of complacency, the authors renew this conversation while taking it in exciting new directions. As political paradigms shift and awareness of nuclear issues manifests in alternative forms, the collected essays establish groundwork for future generations caught in a perpetual struggle with legacies of the nuclear.

Proven Formula for a Balanced, Effective Christian Life
Too often churches emphasize the Bible without welcoming the work of the Holy Spirit, who inspired the Bible. Or they focus on seeking manifestations of the Spirit while neglecting sound Bible teaching. The result: a schism in their faith lives in which they cut God--and his power--out of Christianity's equation. How can God draw a lost world to his Son through people who are powerless?
With over 170 years of diverse ministry experience among them, respected veteran leaders R. T. Kendall, Charles Carrin, and Jack Taylor restore balance to the Christian walk. They show that when the Word is faithfully preached and the Holy Spirit warmly welcomed, the Lord manifests his power, bringing salvation, miracles, healings, heart understanding, and much more. Only when Christians honor the Word and the Spirit can they lead empowered, fruitful lives.
