Overview:
Dear Lord Bloomsbury, I hope you are well and that the cold isn't getting into your silly old bones. I shall be holidaying in France shortly and plan to write a book about it. You see, it struck me (in the bath) that people love travelling and reading books. So why not have a book about travelling? I think your Lordship (silly man) has been missing a hole in the market. So come on old boy. Let's clean up! Yours Sincerely, Mr. Bean. (Travel Writer. A.A. R.A.C. T.S.B.) Though he says so himself, Mr. Bean's done a jolly good job of making this book, stuffed as it is with sellotaped, gummed and bluetacked photos, magazine clippings, sketches and travel memorabilia collected whilst on holiday in France. Not only has he constructed this visual feast all by himself, he's gone to extraordinary lengths to include invaluable advice and guidance to would-be visitors to that land. The language, for example, is a doddle, he tells us; the only French words you need to get by with are 'oui', 'non' and 'gracias'. Mr. Bean knows. He's been.

No one man or woman has ever been in a position to see the presidents, and the presidency, so intimately, over so many years. They called him in for photo opportunities. They called for comfort.

At a time when the nation is increasingly split over the place of religion in public life, The Preacher and the Presidents reveals how the world's most powerful men and world's most famous evangelist, Billy Graham, knit faith and politics together.

The Mighty and the Almighty: Reflections on America, God, and World Affairs - Madeleine Albright

Title: The Mighty and the Almighty: Reflections on America, God, and World Affairs

Author: Madeleine Albright

Price: RM35.00

Quantity in Stock: 1

Overview:

Does America, as George W. Bush has proclaimed, have a special mission, derived from God, to bring liberty and democracy to the world? How much influence does the Christian right have over U.S. foreign policy? And how should America deal with violent Islamist extremists? Madeleine Albright, the former secretary of state and bestselling author of Madam Secretary, offers a thoughtful and often surprising look at the role of religion in shaping America's approach to the world. In this illuminating account, she argues that, to be effective, U.S. policy makers must understand the power and place of religion in motivating others and in coloring how American actions are perceived. Defying the conventional wisdom, Albright suggests not only that religion and politics are inseparable, but that their partnership, when properly harnessed, can be a force for justice and peace.

Sum Doku (Ultimate Puzzle Challenge, For Kids) - Steve Arons

Title: A Special Selection for Mothers (A Don't Sweat the Small Stuff Treasury)

Title: A New Earth, An Old Deception

Author: Richard Abanes

Price: RM20.00

Quantity in Stock: 0

Overview:
Touted by critics and readers alike, A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle is finding a huge following in the culture. Promoting ideas and beliefs that seem godly and good, this bestselling book is wrapping the country in a cocoon of sound spirituality. Or is it? It may sound right - almost Christian, in fact - but something isn't quite right says Richard Abanes, the author of such books as The Truth Behind the Da Vinci Code. Equipping Christians with biblical answers and viewpoints, Abanes helps believers - as well as the curious - understand that Eckhart Tolle's message is dangerous. Easy to read, A New Earth, An Old Deception is a concise refutation of the bestseller, providing a clear biblical response to this new age message. Topics include Tolle's misuse of Scripture, false teachings on God, the Bible's teaching on evil, A New Earth's version of salvation compared to God's plan, and much more.
