Legion

The Destroyer of Souls

By: Phil Nix

Legion

The Destroyer of Souls

By: Phil Nix

Marine Sgt. Mike Shaffer stood alone on the battlefield, looking up at the beast from hell. He would need every bit of wisdom and courage he possessed to withstand this satanic challenge to his faith. Yet instead of cowering in fear, Mike stood his ground with a conviction that exemplified his Christian character. The source of his confidence was the one who stood behind him—the Advocate. It was his job to defend Mike against Legion’s condemning accusations. Legion could have used any appearance he wanted to deceive Mike: the snake that seduced Eve, one of the superhuman demoniacs of biblical times, or the angel of light that tempted Christ. God had granted Satan one chance to break Mike’s spirit, and it had to be done on the eve of a battle long since lost to history. So the old shape-shifter chose his most intimidating form: tall, dark, and masculine. His naked and genderless body spoke of power beyond human understanding. With eyes of steel, the Advocate stared at Satan’s most feared henchman, his jaw fixed, ready to litigate Mike’s case before God. However, his Defender knew that any physical interference in this inquisition was limited to protecting Mike’s body. The Paraclete had sealed Mike’s soul for the resurrection, so this testing was to question Mike’s spiritual integrity: was he worthy of God’s grace and his kingdom? Although Mike would be given a place of honor in the throne room of heaven for his victory over Satan’s dark force of doom, this story doesn’t end there.

The Muir Woods Handbook

An Insider's Guide to the Park, As Related by Ranger Mia

By: Susan Frank,Phil Frank

Muir Woods: a cool, silent northern California redwood wilderness so tranquil that one could forget it's only a dozen miles from San Francisco. Like any good guidebook, Susan and Phil Frank's Insider's Guides enhance the pleasure of a trip to one of our national parks. But they go far beyond the other guides in several unique ways. Narrated by a friendly and extremely knowledgeable cartoon guide, each Insider's Guide offers a lively, funny tour of a splendid place. Readers will learn when to visit, what to bring, what to see, and how to see it. They'll arrive properly equipped for a safe and enjoyable visit. They'll come away knowing plenty about the park's geological and human history, flora, fauna, and future prospects. The question-and-answer format yields information without a lot of searching. A quick-reference section offers, among other things, a telephone directory, guide to area resources, backpacker's checklist, lists of outfitters and transportation companies, and an overview of regional conservation and educational programs. Susan Frank's text has been reviewed by park personnel and regional experts to ensure timeliness and accuracy. Illustrations by San Francisco Chronicle cartoonist Phil Frank add a warmth that other guidebooks do not achieve. This series adds immeasurably to visitors' understanding and enjoyment of our national parks -- and offers a lot of fun while they're planning their trip!

People and Place

The Extraordinary Geographies of Everyday Life

By: Lewis Holloway,Phil Hubbard

An innovative introduction to Human Geography, exploring different ways of studying the relationships between people and place, and putting people at the centre of human geography. The book covers behavioural, humanistic and cultural traditions, showing how these can lead to a nuanced understanding of how we relate to our surroundings on a day-to-day basis. The authors also explore how human geography is currently influenced by 'postmodern' ideas stressing difference and diversity. While taking the importance of these different approaches seriously as ways of thinking about the role of place in peoples' everyday lives, the book also tries to encapsulate what has been so vibrant and exciting about human geography over the last couple of decades. By using examples to which students can relate - such as how they imagine and represent their home, the way they avoid certain spaces, how they move through retail spaces, where they choose to go to university, how they use the Internet, how they represent other nations and so on - the authors show how geography shapes everyday life in a manner that is seemingly mundane yet profoundly important.

London

City of Cities

By: Phil Baker

City of cities, the modern world’s first great metropolis, London has shaped everything from clothing to youth culture. It has a unique place in the world’s memory, even as its role has changed from the capital of the planet to its playground, and as its lived history has mutated into the heritage industry. In this book, Londoner Phil Baker explores the city’s history and the London of today, balancing well-known major events with more curious and eccentric details. He reveals a city of almost unmatched historical density and richness. For Baker, London turns out to be Gothic in all senses of the word and enjoyably haunted by its own often bloody past. And despite extensive redevelopment, as he shows in this engaging and insightful book, some of the magic remains.

The Prophetic Lens

The Camera and Black Moral Agency from MLK to Darnella Frazier

By: Phil Allen Jr.

Martin Luther King used news cameras as a means of exposing anti-Black violence by white mobs in the 1950s and 60s. Darnella Frazier used her phone to record and post the murder of George Floyd by Derek Chauvin in May 2020. These are just two of many people who have captured images of injustice for the world to see. The Prophetic Lens takes an important look at the use of the video camera as an indispensable prophetic tool for the security of Black lives and greater possibility for racial justice. Phil Allen shows how the camera can be a catalyst for cultural change, using Walter Brueggemann's Prophetic Imagination as a framework for understanding the concept of "prophetic." Chronicling the use of the camera, particularly in film from J.D. Griffiths' Birth of a Nation to Spike Lee's Do the Right Thing, Allen's historical approach reveals how effective this technology has been in achieving the goals of its respective storytellers. The book highlights both the prophetic potential of the camera and the context of Blackness as a liminal existence amid a context dominated by whiteness.

Pheasants, Partridges & Grouse

Including buttonquails, sandgrouse and allies

By: Phil McGowan,Steve Madge

This guide brings together, for the first time in single volume, a comprehensive review of all the world's pheasants, partridges, quails, grouse, turkeys, guineafowl, buttonquails, sandgrouse, and the enigmatic Plains-wanderer - over 250 species in all. The group includes some of the world's most familiar and beautiful birds, such as Indian Peafowl and the stunning tragopans, as well as some of the rarest and most threatened. Some survive in fragments of over-exploited habitats, whilst others are now so familiar in domestication that it is difficult to imagine that they had any wild ancestors at all. As with other volumes in the award-winning Helm Identification Guide series, this book concentrates on identification and distribution, but also highlights conversation issues where relevant. Each species is treated in detail, reflecting the extensive knowledge of both authors. The 72 colour plates, by leading bird illustrators, show male, female, juvenile and subspecies plumages, and form the finest set of illustrations of these birds to date. There is also a colour distribution map for each species. Pheasants, Partridges & Grouse is a welcome addition to the Helm Identification Guide series, more importantly, a landmark volume in the literature of this attractive and vulnerable group of birds.

Contested Natures

By: Phil Macnaghten,John Urry

Demonstrating that all notions of nature are inextricably entangled in different forms of social life, the text elaborates the many ways in which the apparently natural world has been produced from within particular social practices. These are analyzed in terms of different senses, different times and the production of distinct spaces, including the local, the national and the global. The authors emphasize the importance of cultural understandings of the physical world, highlighting the ways in which these have been routinely misunderstood by academic and policy discourses. They show that popular conceptions of, and attitudes to, nature are often contradictory and that there are no simple ways of prevailing upon people to `save the environment′.

The Future Has Been Postponed

By: Phil N. Good

In this awkwardly-paced thriller the future has gone amuck. A Christian group terrorizes the west. Boy Scouts are listed as a subversive hate group. Whooping cranes come back with a vengeance and are eating the Ridley turtles. The poles shift and the North Pole ends up in Libya. U.S. capitalists seek political asylum in Russia. Most Americans are in a stupor from their implanted entertainment systems/GPS locators. NASA mistakenly uses centimetres instead of astronomical units in a major space program. Some outlaw Linton clones accidentally knock a hole in the fabric of time and space. Finally a war breaks out between computers that completely gridlocks all electronic communication. Rapture comes but the massive amount of electronic noise interferes with the transmission so that most people are missed on the first try. What the future holds is unsettling and perhaps dangerously familiar! But in spite of all this, we still have the right to life, liberty and to file suit for unhappiness.
