The Dumb-Bell and Indian Club, Explaining the Uses to Which they May be Put, with Numerous Illustrations of the Various Movements - Also a Treatise on the Muscular Advantages Derived from These Exercises

By: Ed. James

Indian clubs', or 'Iranian clubs' belong to a category of exercise equipment used for developing strength, and in juggling. In appearance, they resemble elongated bowling-pins, and are commonly made out of wood. They come in all shapes and sizes however, ranging from a few pounds each, to fifty pounds, and are commonly swung in certain patterns as part of exercise programs. They were often used in class formats, predominantly in Iran, where members would perform choreographed routines, led by an instructor; remarkably similar to modern aerobics classes. This work is a reprint of a classic publication on the use of 'Indian Clubs' and along with a brand new introduction, includes a series of exercises to help you get in shape the old-fashioned way.

Defending the Resurrection

By: Ed James Patrick Holding

Did Jesus rise from the dead? The question is one on which the truth of the Christian faith turns (1 Cor. 15). If Jesus did not rise, you may as well close down your church! In this volume, prominent Internet apologist James Patrick Holding and a team of Christian authors provide a series of essays defending the Resurrection as a historical event, taking on criticisms from every angle - from that which is scholarly to that which is plain lunacy! With this book, you'll be prepared to meet many of today's greatest challenges to the core event of the Christian faith. "Both the interested reader and especially the student of this subject should find many worthwhile discussions that are easily worth the price of the book." - from the Foreword by Dr. Gary Habermas

Pierre Nicole, Jansenist and Humanist

A Study of His Thought

By: E.D. James

The present study had its origins long ago in a doctorate thesis presented at the University of Cambridge. The work has been considerably enlarged in scope, if not in bulk, but has always been conceived as a whole. Nicole's thought is, in any case, remarkably coherent. I make use of articles of mine published in French Studies for April 1960 and July 1967, and my thanks are due to the General Editor of that journal for permission to do so. lowe a great debt of gratitude to Dr M. G. Wallas, who guided my researches in the early years. The penetration and lucidity of her criticism were equalled only by her kindness and patience. To Mr N. J. Abercrom bie, who had himself worked on Nicole for a number of years, I am deeply grateful for the gift of books, notes and analyses. Probably every section of this study owes something to his work, hints of the importance of the influence on Nicole of St Fran~ois de Sales proving particularly fruitful. One of the most pleasant moments in the course of my researches was spent at the Rijksarchief in Utrecht, to the staff of which, and to Dr AJ. van de Yen, Keeper of the Archives of the Oud-Bisschoppelijke Clerezij, I am much indebted for their kind help. May 1971 E. D. J.

Tell Me Lies: A Completely Addictive and Unputdownable Crime Thriller

By: Ed James

Fans of Lee Child and David Baldacci will be gripped by this heart-racing FBI thriller from bestselling author Ed James. Megan Holliday opens her eyes and finds herself slumped on her doorstep. The last thing she remembers is being in the car with her two kids. She sees a handwritten note on her lap - Don't call the police. It's then that she realises her car is missing, and her children are gone... Leading the FBI's Child Abduction Rapid Deployment team, FBI agent Max Carter will stop at nothing to find children taken from their families. After all, he was once one of those taken children, so he knows exactly what's at stake. When he hears that a young senator's two children have been abducted and their mother left for dead, he races to the Holliday family home in Washington State. Facing a wall of police cruisers and blacked-out SUVs, Carter quickly uncovers the facts. Megan Holliday was ambushed by a man with a gun as she returned home from taking her kids out for ice cream. Bound and drugged, the attacker left her unconscious on the doorstep with the sinister note on her lap. As Senator Christopher Holliday walks through the halls of the US Federal Building in Seattle, his phone beeps with an alert. Frustrated by the interruption, he takes a cursory glance and is horrified by the image on the screen - his two children, Brandon and Avery, unconscious. The message he gets simply reads Meet me or they die. When Agent Carter tries to make contact with the busy senator, it seems the politician has gone missing, fleeing from the Federal Building and abandoning his distraught wife. If Carter knows one thing, it's that Holliday has something to hide. And he just became Carter's prime suspect. What readers are saying about Ed James: 'What a book!...

As Fenchurch and his team in the Met police service try to identify her and piece together her murder, they're faced with cruel indifference at every turn. Nobody cares about yet another dead prostitute.To Fenchurch, however, she could just as easily be Chloe, his daughter still missing after ten years, whose memory still haunts him, his burning obsession having killed his marriage.But the discovery of a second body forces Fenchurch to peel back the grimy layers shrouding the London sex trade, confronting his own traumatic past while racing to undo a scheme larger, more complex and more evil than anything he could possibly have imagined.Murder is intercut with humour in this fast-paced crime whodunnit set on the gritty streets of East London.

Stab in the Dark: Previously Published as Dyed in the Wool

By: Ed James

Classic Scottish noir: bad food, bad moods, too much booze and tight plots' @ey0k1, TwitterFor fans of Ian Rankin, Ed McBain and Stuart MacBride, Dyed in the Wool sees the return of Detective Constable Scott Cullen, in the gritty and hard-hitting Scottish police procedural series that has set the bestseller charts alight.DC Scott Cullen likes to play hard and fast with the rules and while it might antagonise his colleagues - and superiors - it gets results. But resistance to his cowboy attitude, coupled with fears about a forthcoming police restructure, mean that things aren't looking good for the maverick cop, especially when his personal life begins to crumble.Then the body of a young man turns up in a totalled car in West Lothian. It looks like a straightforward case until that seemingly accidental death turns into two undeniable murders and Cullen gets caught in the risky crossfire of several different investigations. When the case shines a light on the murky underworld of football hooliganism, things become unexpectedly too personal for comfort. Can Cullen work out what's going on, or were his colleagues right about him all along?'Proper modern gritty Scottish crime drama' Kelley, Amazon five-star review'Unputdownable! Just gets better with each book' FMB, Amazon five-star review'Three cheers for Ed James... If you have not yet started these brilliant stories then what are you waiting for?' AngelaR, Amazon five-star review'Can Scott Cullen keep thrilling us? Yes he can... Yet again a great novel from Ed James.
