The Secret Computer of the Ancient Gods

A Mathethematical Analysis

By: John C. Compton

The I Ching Project was inaugurated in 1986 when the initial research on an ancient Tibetan Mandala revealed a trigram relationship with the I Ching, the Chinese book of changes. For the past 30 years the author has conducted a private research project, delving deeply into Tantric/Buddhist symbolism and the commentaries of the I Ching. The author’s research work has revealed and conclusively proves the existence of a lost civilisation, whose mathematical and scientific knowledge not only equalled but surpassed its Greek and Egyptian contemporaries. This book contains a series of commentaries, research notes and illustrations selected from the author’s amazing research work which will astonish practitioners, philosophers and scholars of the ancient art of divination. The author demonstrates and show that the scribes of this civilization retained their knowledge and wisdom for posterity within a computerized time capsule of pictographic images. His work proves that the I Ching is not only a book of divination but a profound book of mathematics and science. It also incorporates the original binary code, which can now be attributed to the ancient authors of the I Ching some 4000 years ago.

The I Ching & The T'ai Hsuan Ching

The I Ching Project - Volume 7

By: John Clifford Compton

The content of this book differs from the other volumes of the I Ching Project, because it is a mathematical analysis of the T'ai Hsuan Ching , another Chinese Classic, which is considered to be the lost companion of the I Ching. This research document is based on nine magic squares incorporated on an ancient Tibetan Mandala and the 81 linear line symbols of the T'ai Hsuan Ching, each of which have been given a numerical notation based on the transposition of linear line symbols. The transposition of the three linear line symbols of the I Ching is known and may be represented by the numbers 6, 7, 8 and 9. However, the transposition of the four linear line symbols of the T'ai Hsuan Ching is NOT known. The author's research and mathematical analysis shows that the transposition of these four linear line symbols may be represented by the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, which conclusively proves that the T'ai Hsuan Ching may predate The I Ching as a divination oracle.

The Reign of Elizabeth I

Court and Culture in the Last Decade

By: John Alexander Guy

This book is about the politics and political culture of the 'last decade' of the reign of Elizabeth I, in effect the years 1585 to 1603. It argues that this period was so distinctive that it amounted to the second of two 'reigns'. It also invites readers, at times provocatively, to take a critical look at the declining Virgin Queen. Many teachers and their students have failed to consider the 'last decade' in its own right, or have ignored it, having begun their accounts in 1558 and struggled on to the defeat of the Armada in 1588. Only two major political surveys have been attempted since 1926. Both consider mainly the war with Spain and the politics of war, and each allots inadequate space to Crown patronage, puritanism and religion, society and the economy, political thought, and literature and drama. This book, written by some of the leading scholars of their generation, will be indispensable to a fuller understanding of the age.

Broadway Musicals, 1943-2004

By: John Stewart

On March 31, 1943, the musical Oklahoma! premiered and the modern era of the Broadway musical was born. Since that time, the theatres of Broadway have staged hundreds of musicals--some more noteworthy than others, but all in their own way a part of American theatre history. With more than 750 entries, this comprehensive reference work provides information on every musical produced on Broadway since Oklahoma's 1943 debut. Each entry begins with a brief synopsis of the show, followed by a three-part history: first, the pre-Broadway story of the show, including out-of-town try-outs and Broadway previews; next, the Broadway run itself, with dates, theatres, and cast and crew, including replacements, chorus and understudies, songs, gossip, and notes on reviews and awards; and finally, post-Broadway information with a detailed list of later notable productions, along with important reviews and awards.

The Key Codes of Fu Hsi & King Wen

The Formulation of the I Ching Hexagrams

By: John C. Compton

This book contains a series of research notes and graphical illustrations selected from the author’s amazing research work. It shows how: · The Sixty-Four hexagrams were derived by using combinatory trigrams selected from the Earlier Heaven and Later Heaven trigram cyclic sequences. · The legendary authors of the I Ching, known as Fu Hsi and King Wen, used Key Coded Matrices which enabled them to change the hexagrams of the ancient Ma-wang-tui into the Standard Modern edition. · The formulation of the Trigram Order of Completion was derived by using Knight’s Chess /binary codes and the manipulation of hexagram identification numbers. · The cyclic sequences and trigram line to line transitions were utilized to formulate the King Wen’s hexagram arrangement. · The natural numerical notation for each individual trigram was mathematically derived. · The author’s inter-face code was derived and used to determine the mathematical methodology of the Genetic Code. · Trigram lines are manipulated to form the Inner and Outer Nuclear trigrams/ hexagrams. · The Genetic Code was determined from Fu Hsi’s diagram of the derivation of the Sixty-Four hexagrams. It also includes the constructional details of an analytical model calculator which can be created from the actual design details shown within this book. This document provides the conclusive evidence that the originator(s) of the I Ching used a mathematical system which encompassed a formalistic natural philosophy that sought to embrace the entire world in a system of number symbolism. It shows the links to the ancient Indian Vedic mathematical system which reveals the relationship between the I Ching and the Binary / Genetic Codes.

Historical Dictionary of Wrestling

Historical Dictionary of Wrestling

By: John Grasso

Wrestling as a legitimate contest is one of the oldest, if not the oldest form of sport. There are cave drawings depicting memorable matches in France, which are over 15,000 years old. Egyptian and Babylonian reliefs depict wrestling bouts where wrestlers are using most of the holds known to the modern-day sport. Wrestling was also a big part of ancient Greek literature and legend and historical records of sport indicate that wrestling under various sets of rules was contested at the Ancient Olympic Games in Greece. Today’s modern wrestling is a form of "sports entertainment" in which highly skilled athletes enact wrestling matches in such a way so that their opponents do not get hurt and the matches' endings are scripted (although the audience is not aware of the script). This Historical Dictionary of Wrestling covers the history of Wrestling through a chronology, an introductory essay, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 600 cross-referenced entries on important amateur and professional wrestling, wrestling personalities, announcers, managers and promoters from all eras, and wrestling organizations. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about the sport of Wrestling.

Routledge Library Editions: World War II in Asia

By: Timothy Hall,John J. Sbrega

The 4 volumes in this set, originally published between 1980 and 1983, bring to light and focus on the conflict between Japan and Australia and Japan and the USA. Timothy Hall’s volumes, richly illustrated with black & white photographs, used highly contentious documents as their sources and give fascinating insights into a period of Australian history which is sometimes less than gloious. John J. Sbrega’s tour de force is not only one of the most extensive annotated bibliographies on the USA and Japan in World War 2 ever published, but it also provides invaluable information on lesser known but no less important aspects of the conflict.
