Описание: In this novel, WHITE MONSOON was a 1992 codename for a Libyan terrorist plot to travel disquised as members of the International Red Cross from Libya to India's Opium & Alkaloid Works to steal the contents of a backyard-swimming-pool sized vat full of over 400 tons of raw opium worth over $36US billion in 1992 once converted to 40 tons of pure heroin and sold on Main Street America.This yarn (PG13 TV14), with its many heroes, includes an incredibly brave 12 year old.AUTHOR BIOGRAPHYScott Nelson grew up in the 60s when LOOK and LIFE magazine published numerous pictorials about heroin addiction. This terrified him as a young man--he couldn't believe people could do that to themselves. Now he realizes the drug is so pleasurable and often laced with fentanyl, or worse, carfentanil that the odds are extremely high that someone will become hooked for life from the very first time they try it or die. Seeking to overcome his fear and wanting to address one of the top problems facing our world today, he decided to go after heroin head on. After completing a previous novel, he had a dream that became the opening chapter of this novel. It was so real he woke up in a cold sweat and quickly wrote it all down while it was still fresh in his mind. He realized he had slumbered into a great way to start his international thriller.Scott's dad, Doug Nelson, and mom, Judy Nelson, both read lots of books to Scott who learned at an early age to listen to the flow of words and how they wrapped together in such a way that just enough detail allowed the reader or listener's mind to paint the scene. They both introduced him to books they enjoyed reading which is how Scott found himself listening to stories about Ian Fleming's James Bond, stories of high intrigue by Alistair MacLean, and later by Robert Ludlum (the Bourne Identity series) and Tom Clancy (Jack Ryan). Scott says these authors all had a tremendous influence on his style, characterization, and story building where conflict draws in the reader.Scott lives with his wife in Utah. Between them they have 7 children and 14 grandchildren. UA-148406214-1

Описание: This is a study of the concept of sovereignty in the modern epoch. For too long modern political theory has assumed the subject; it has also assumed the state. This book asks how each are effected in history through liberal-Enlightenment ethical and political affirmations which anchor themselves in a unique metaphysics of statecraft.

This work examines the cohesion of Raymond Aron’s political thought and argues that its unifying principles are to be found in certain intellectual problems he came upon early in life through his study of German thought. These problems consist of the relation between man and history, knowledge and action, and philosophy and politics. They are explored in three intertwined facets of Aron’s thought – History, Sociology, and Praxeology – which are elaborated by setting Aron in dialogue with three key German thinkers: Dilthey, Marx, and Weber respectively. This work argues that the roots of Aron’s political thought reach back to the 1930s and that his ongoing meditation on the philosophical problems raised at that time endure and provide the framework for his thought for the rest of his life.
