"Hornets' Nest" is a surprising story. One which mixes revenge, American rock stars in the Amazon jungle and political scandals with a language, form and rhythm which shock the reader. An action thriller told from diverse voices and points of view of its characters. Isabela Pastri has watched the rise of Wlamir Turvel ever since the day he assaulted her father and made him an invalid, as well as taking his sawmill in the interior of the Amazon. Now he is governor of the state of Para and one of the most significant drug dealers in the Amazon region. She becomes his lover, becomes pregnant and learns his secrets. Fred Pastri, her brother, has left for the United States, where he lives with his lover Pat, a famous rock star. He abandons everything and travels back to his home town of Belem in search of his sister, between trying to forget and having to relive a family tragedy. He arrives in the midst of a police investigation, journalists, prostitutes and corrupt politicians. It is time for vengeance.

When Richard Bartlett first experienced the origins of his Matrix Energetics program, his goal was only to help the patients who brought their myriad health problems to his Chiropractic practice. Now, nearly ten years after the event that would redirect the entire course of his life, Dr. Bartlett brings the power of his seminars into his new book, The Physics of Miracles. By lightly touching his clients while at the same time applying focused intent, he could restore them to a physically, mentally, and spiritually balanced state, instantly shifting misalignments that had plagued them for years. Most astonishing of all, he could teach anyone how to do this. Now, for millions of people looking for empowerment in an age of declining and impersonal healthcare, Dr. Bartlett shares this phenomenon in a book full of explosive potential. The Physics of Miraclesprovides an easily-reproducible, results-oriented process of change that draws on the fundamental principles embraced by the field of quantum and scalar physics. This paradigm-busting book can teach anyone how to access their creative power to heal and transform their lives.

The Power of Nonviolence, written by Richard Bartlett Gregg in 1934 and revised in 1944 and 1959, is the most important and influential theory of principled or integral nonviolence published in the twentieth century. Drawing on Gandhi's ideas and practice, Gregg explains in detail how the organized power of nonviolence (power-with) exercised against violent opponents can bring about small and large transformative social change and provide an effective substitute for war. This edition includes a major introduction by political theorist, James Tully, situating the text in its contexts from 1934 to 1959, and showing its great relevance today. The text is the definitive 1959 edition with a foreword by Martin Luther King, Jr. It includes forewords from earlier editions, the chapter on class struggle and nonviolent resistance from 1934, a crucial excerpt from a 1929 preliminary study, a biography and bibliography of Gregg, and a bibliography of recent work on nonviolence.
