Written by Murat Aibassov, an engineer who predicted the war more than a decade before it began, this audiobook exposes the hidden architecture of global systems, the cyclic nature of civilizational collapse, and the elite mechanisms that shape history behind the scenes.

En medrivende historie om en gruppe modige, unge danske mænd, der – ofte ad omveje, der førte dem kloden rundt – kom til at flyve Spitfires i allieret tjeneste. Det er krigens år fortalt gennem en personlig historie – om flugt fra Danmark, lejrliv og kampmissioner. Det er viljen til (og kampen for) at gøre en forskel og kæmpe for friheden, ofte med livet som indsats.

يَرْوي كتاب «25 يوماً إلى عدن» القصةَ الحقيقية لتشكيلِ دُولِ الخليج العربي، خلالَ أسبوعٍ واحد، تحالُفاً من عشرِ دُولٍ، أطلَقَ أكبرَ عمليةٍ عسكرية تُشَنُّ من طرفٍ واحد. وقد تَعرَّضَت تلك الحملةُ لفتراتٍ من المدِّ والجَزْر؛ حيث كانت المُقاوَمةُ الجنوبية أحياناً على شفيرِ أن تُسحَق وهي تُقاتِل والبحرُ من ورائها، لكنها تَمكَّنَت من الصمودِ، وهزَمَت الغُزاةَ في نهاية المَطاف وانطلَقَت في إثْرِهم. إنها قصَّةٌ مُذهِلة تَرْوي كيف تَمكَّنَت جيوشٌ عربية من إنجازِ ما لم تَستطِع الولاياتُ المتحدة الأمريكية إنجازَه؛ أيْ مَنْع إيران من الحصول على مَوطِئِ قَدَمٍ في شِبه الجزيرة العربية. كما يروي الكتاب كيف تَمكَّنَت قواتٌ عربية خاصَّة من «قتالِ شبحٍ آتٍ من الجبال، بجوارِ أهمِّ مَعْبَرٍ بَحْريٍّ في العالَم»، مِثلما رَوى أحدُ المُقاتِلين المُشارِكين في الحَمْلة.

Korea was one of the last countries in Asia to be visited by Westerners, and its borders have remained largely unchanged since it was unified in the seventh century. Though it is one of the world's oldest and most ethnically homogeneous states, Korea was not born in a vacuum. Geographically isolated, the country was heavily influenced by powerful China and was often used as a bridge to the mainland by Japan. Calling themselves as "a shrimp among whales", Koreans borrowed elements of government, culture, and religion, all the while fiercely fighting to maintain independence.

Sein Leben gleicht einem Abenteuerroman. Fidel Castro überlebte und erlebte all dies: Die Batista-Diktatur auf Kuba, Gefängnis, Exil, die Revolution und ihren Sieg 1959, Mordkomplotte, sieben sowjetische Generalsekretäre, zehn US-Präsidenten. Der Kubabesuch des elften, Barack Obama, leitet endlich das Tauwetter in den Beziehungen Kubas mit den USA ein. Weder Wirtschaftsblockaden noch Invasionspläne konnten Castro etwas anhaben.

Although T. E. Lawrence, commonly known as "Lawrence of Arabia’, died in 1935, the story of his life has captured the imagination of succeeding generations. Seven Pillars of Wisdom is a monumental work in which he chronicles his role in leading the Arab Revolt against the Turks during the First World War. A reluctant leader, and wracked by guilt at the duplicity of the British, Lawrence nevertheless threw himself into his role, suffering the blistering desert conditions and masterminding military campaigns which culminated in the triumphant march of the Arabs into Damascus.
