Book excerpt: USA TODAY bestselling author Christie Ridgway sweeps readers away in this pulse—pounding and heartfelt reader—favorite story of secrets and second chances… After ten years in a coma, Linda Faraday is finally awake. All she can remember is she used to be an undercover operative looking into the shady dealings of an embezzler. And today… A survivor? A single mother to a ten—year—old son? With her enemies still out there, Linda accepts the protection of FBI agent Emmett Jamison as she attempts to build a new life—a simpler, quieter life—and turns her back on the dangerous but important work that’s already cost her so much. But even as an undeniable connection—and an irresistible attraction—grows between them, Linda isn't sure Emmett fits into her plans. Spending days chasing after murderers hardly qualifies. But as she’s drawn into the hunt with Emmett, Linda realizes she was never meant to take the safe road. And her past isn’t quite finished with her. It's time for a final reckoning. For everyone…

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fengdao kejie or "Rules and Precepts for Worshiping the Dao" dates from the early seventh century and is a key text of medieval Daoist priesthood and monasticism, which was first formally organized in the sixth century. Compiled to serve the needs of both monastic practitioners and priests in training it describes the fundamental rules, organizational principles, and concrete establishments of Daoist institutions. Speaking in their own voices and presenting the ideal Daoist life of their time, priests and recluses come to life in this fascinating ancient document. Livia Kohn here offers the first complete annotated translation of the Fengdao kejie. She begins with three introductory chapters that outline the development of Daoist organizations and institutions, discuss the date and compilation of the work, and present key issues of terminology and worldview. The text itself contains eighteen sections that address the importance of karma and retribution, the creation of buildings, sacred statues, and scriptures, the design of sacred utensils and ritual clothing, the organization and structure of the ordination hierarchy, as well as a number of essential rituals, from the recitation of the scriptures to the daily devotions and the ordination ceremony. The Daoist Monastic Manual offers a clear and vibrant description of the lifestyle and organizational structures of medieval Daoism, rooting the religion in the concrete reality of daily activities.

Download or read book Torpedo written by Roger Branfill-Cook and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The torpedo was the greatest single game-changer in the history of naval warfare. For the first time it allowed a small, cheap torpedo-firing vessel—and by extension a small, minor navy—to threaten the largest and most powerful warships afloat. The traditional concept of seapower, based on huge fleets of expensive capital ships, required radical rethinking because of this important naval weapon. This book is a broadranging international history of the weapon, tracing not only its origins and technical progress down to the present day, but also its massive impact on all subsequent naval wars. Torpedo contains much new technical information that has come to light over the past thirty years and covers all of the improved capabilities of the weapon. Heavily illustrated with photos and technical drawings this is a book no enthusiast or historian can afford to miss.
