Presence, Prevention, and Persuasion

Can great powers ensure the political outcomes they want and prevent political developments they oppose, by stationing their military forces in distant regions during peacetime? If so, what kinds of military capabilities yield this sort of peacetime political leverage? And what kinds of political goals can-and, just as importantly, cannot-be achieved through "forward military presence?" In the post-9/11 world, as the United States seeks to use its unrivalled global military predominance to build a safer, better world by preventing terrorism and encouraging societies around the world to embrace democracy, these questions take on enormous importance. Presence, Prevention, and Persuasion addresses these issues by looking at British, French, and American experiences in the Middle East, South America, the Caribbean basin, and Africa over the last two centuries. The authors' findings will have a significant impact on scholarship but, more importantly, on American decision-making communities. An essential volume for anyone working in the field of international relations whether it is policy making, diplomacy, military planning or the private sector.

Dr. Edward Hoffman, a world-renowned thinker and writer in humanistic psychology, reveals how the Kabbalah exerted a profound influence on the establishment and growth of Western psychological thought through such towering thinkers as Carl Jung, Sigmund Freud, and Abraham Maslow. With a new introduction and updated bibliography, The Way of Splendor: The 25th Anniversary begins with an historical presentation of Kabalistic metaphysics and cosmology, then discusses the psychological dimensions of Kabbalah on such topics as dreams, meditation, sexuality, community, health and emotions. The Way of Splendor is a classic yet timely book that shows how to integrate spirituality with counseling, emphasizing the day-to-day relevance of the visionary experience.
Swedenborg & Gurdjieff: The Missing Links: Anti-Intuitive Essays for Personal Transformation
A potent little book for those who feel that the currently available spiritual paths are not enough. The author does not sugar-coat the process of true spiritual transformation. You will be called upon to come to terms with yourself as you discover the things that always get in the way of your true spiritual progress. Armed with this special knowledge, you can gain the inside track and have a fighting chance toward reaching your God-given human potential. These essays offer many stinging revelations that will challenge your strongest beliefs to the very bone and take you completely out of your comfort zone. Such anti-intuitive revelations will convince you that: - Being famous or enjoying elite status won't help you - Going to church won't help you - Eating healthy foods and exercising won't help you - Living an outwardly civil or moral life won't even help you This book is not about becoming a citizen of the world; it's about becoming a citizen of heaven, which is why God created each of us. We have failed to grasp this divine goal as a personal obligation and responsibility in our own lives. Modern life has provided humankind with knowledge about practically everything. But we really don't know ourselves. Because of this, the world is full of perplexing problems and atrocities. Even seemingly rational and good-natured individuals have no clue as to the real obstacles that stand in the way of harmonious living. Based on the spiritual influences of Emanuel Swedenborg and George Gurdjieff, the ideas in this book will help you identify what these obstacles are. These new insights will have an unsettling effect on your self-image, but allow you to rise above your current biological self. An essential read for anyone who takes their spiritual transformation seriously.
