JAMES BOND INVESTIGATES A VILLAIN WITH THE POWER TO LAUNCH A NUCLEAR WARHEAD Sir Hugo Drax is a multimillionaire tycoon and war hero, revered by the British public for his new Moonraker missile defense system. But there’s more to this enigmatic millionaire than he lets on. When M suspects Drax of cheating at cards, he is baffled that the patriot would risk his reputation and his rocket program on a game, so he assigns Bond to infiltrate Drax’s circle. As 007 probes the activities at the Moonraker base in the days leading up to the beloved rocket’s maiden launch, he learns the truth about Drax’s battle scars, his wartime allegiances—and his murderous plans for the deployment of Moonraker.

In this memoir of carefully selected, yet slightly scattered, deeply personal reflections, a psychotherapist and behavioral healthcare leader explores his relationship with mental illness. At times hilarious and at others heartbreaking, these essays recount the author's struggle to be a "normal person" despite a far from typical background. From his grandmother's birth on a kitchen table in Oklahoma to reconciling having two fathers, one bipolar and one transgender, to his own breakdowns and ongoing recovery, the author grapples with childhood, family, fatherhood, marriage, work, international adventures, and suicide, ultimately finding acceptance and commitment to be the path to healing.

In Search of the Dark Ages

Author: Michael Wood
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 1448141516
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 286

Book Description
Updated with the latest archaeological research new chapters on the most influential yet widely unrecognised people of the British isles, In Search of the Dark Ages illuminates the fascinating and mysterious centuries between the Romans and the Norman Conquest of 1066. In this new edition, Michael Wood vividly conjures some of the most important people in British history such as Hadrian, a Libyan refugee from the Arab conquests and arguably the most important person of African origin in British history, to Queen Boadicea, the leader of a terrible war of resistance against the Romans. Here too, warts and all, are the Saxon, Viking and Norman kings who laid the political foundations of England: Offa of Mercia, Alfred the Great, Athelstan, and William the Conqueror, whose victory at Hastings in 1066 marked the end of Anglo-Saxon England. Reflecting the latest historical, textual and archaeological research, this revised and updated edition of Michael Wood's classic book overturns preconceptions of the Dark Ages as a shadowy and brutal era, showing them to be a richly exciting and formative period in the history of Britain.
