Alice is launched on an amazing journey of self-realization, in which she learns about the transformative role she's destined to play in Braintown, and the truth about her own identity and exceptional abilities.

This book chronicles one individual's lifetime of paranormal experiences involving UFOs, ETs, and MILABs. The author meticulously recorded the details of these events in dozens of journals over several decades. She revisits many of these experiences in this book to better understand their true nature. The bizarre occurrences appeared to involve non-human life forms, advanced technology, and the human military. Were these experiences completely physical in nature? Did they involve interaction within another dimension? Were human or non-human forces responsible for triggering the staggering amount of consciously recalled details? Evolution explores in detail many aspects that have appeared in these events: multiple alien species, advanced technologies and crafts, underground and underwater bases, medical and psychological testing, and procedures. Fifty illustrations and photos are included.

Aimed at both the intelligent layman and the professional economist, the two volumes of this book are the most comprehensive and intellectually powerful explanation of the nature and value of laissez-faire capitalism that has ever been written. They represent a twofold major integration of truths previously discovered by other writers, combined with numerous original contributions made by the author himself. Within economic theory, they integrate leading ideas of the Austrian school with needlessly abandoned doctrines of the British classical school. They further integrate such reconstituted economic theory with essential elements of Ayn Rand's philosophy of Objectivism. On the foundation of these integrations, Dr. Reisman is able to develop the numerous major original contributions that his book presents on the subjects of profits, wages, saving, capital accumulation, aggregate economic accounting, monopoly, and natural resources, among other vital subjects. Based on the same foundation, his book presents the most powerful critiques of Marx, Keynes, the pure-and-perfect competition doctrine, and environmentalism to be found anywhere. A leading part of its trenchant analyses is a consistent demonstration of the natural harmony of the rational self-interests of all men under capitalism-of capitalists and wage earners, of consumers and producers, of men and women of all races and nationalities, including immigrants and the native born, and of competitors of all levels of ability-consonances most will find astonishing, given the prevailing misunderstandings of capitalism. The book's importance and appeal to a general audience are evident in its description of prevailing attitudes toward capitalism and its challenge to learn why they are all completely wrong and the cause of self-destructive political behavior on a massive scale. For those with the intellectual courage to accept a challenge of having many of their firmest and most cherished beliefs reduced by unanswerable logic to the status of Dark-Age superstitions, here are some of the beliefs that Reisman's book demolishes: The profit motive is the cause of starvation wages, exhausting hours, sweatshops, and child labor; of monopolies, inflation, depressions, wars, imperialism, and racism. Saving is hoarding. Competition is the law of the jungle. Economic inequality is unjust and the legitimate basis for class warfare. Economic progress is a ravaging of the planet and, in the form of improvements in efficiency, a cause of unemployment and depressions. War and destruction or additional peacetime government spending are necessary to prevent unemployment under capitalism. Economic activity other than manual labor is parasitical. Businessmen and capitalists are recipients of "unearned income" and are "exploiters." The stock and commodity markets are "gambling casinos"; retailers and wholesalers are "middlemen," having no function but that of adding "markups" to the prices charged by farmers and manufacturers; advertisers are inherently guilty of fraud-the fraud of attempting to induce people to desire the goods that capitalism showers on them, but that they allegedly have no natural or legitimate basis for desiring. Reisman's book flies in the face of all anticapitalistic ideas and demands. Its thesis is that never have so many people been so ignorant and confused about a subject so important, as most people now are about economics and capitalism. It argues that in its logically consistent form of laissez-faire capitalism-that is, with the powers of government limited to those of national defense and the administration of justice-capitalism is a system of economic progress and prosperity for all, and is a precondition of world peace. Following an exhaustive economic analysis of virtually every aspect of capitalism, the book's concluding chapter is devoted to the presentation of a long-range political-economic program for the achievement of a fully capitalist society.

Returning to the heart of the Church of Regents to confront the Grand Regent, Dejian Molijc, proves too much for Laila Johar. She loses control of her mind and body and is imprisoned again by the man she once loved. With her captive, David Aeida returns, still loyal to the Grand Regent, and so begins a battle that will determine both their fates.At the center of that struggle is the Grand Regent, an almost unrecognizable figure. He is disturbed and paranoid, isolated in his tower, and thirsting for vengeance against those he feels have wronged him. For the moment he trusts Aeida, but what he wants is Laila restored, and he expects Aeida to deliver her to him.That is only the beginning of their problems. For the Seeker and the Society of Travelers remain to play their parts. Both desire nothing more than the utter destruction of the Church of Regents and all its works, and there is every chance they will get caught in the crossfire.The epic fourth volume of the Sojourners Cycle centers upon the many betrayals and lies at the heart of the faith of the Church of Regents and the devastation upon the lives of the faithful they have wrought. Desire and guilt, love and revenge, rage and despair will drive them all, with consequences for all the universes.

After crossing the universes to join with Toma Osahi's group of renegades in their battle for control of the Church of Regents, Laila Johar finds herself in a precarious position. While they both share the same goal-wresting control of the Church from the Grand Regent Dejian Molijc-Osahi doesn't know who Laila really is. What will he do if he finds out?While Laila struggles to keep her identity secret, Osahi and his people pull her deeper and deeper into a search for her missing friend, Ana Arajuano, that promises to shed light on the dark secrets of the Watchers' Order and the Acolytes. Before she can find those answers though, Laila will have to face what lies within.Crossing the universes has unsettled the already shaky equilibrium in her mind. If she wants to restore herself, she will have to act fast, for the consequences of what Acolytes did to her are only continuing to destabilize her. And David Aeida lurks somewhere, waiting for his time to come.The third volume of the Sojourners Cycle continues Laila's journey for some measure of justice for what was done to her, while battling universes divided, both within and without.

Born out of the chaos that followed the arrival of the Society of Travelers in its universe, the Church of Regents has as its sacred mission to find the one true universe, of which all others are but reflections. Opposing it stands the Society of Travelers. Claiming to protect all the universes, they outlaw anyone from crossing among them-anyone but themselves-and they will do anything in their power to stop the Church from following its mission. Laila Johar has been at the center of that conflict for years, divided in her loyalties. Once one of the chosen of the Church's founder De Gofroy, and a rising star in the faith, she now has only one goal: to have her revenge upon Dejian Molijc, Grand Regent of the Church of Regents, and her husband, for the fate he has condemned her to. First, though, she needs to find her way home across the universes. That is easier said than done. The Grand Regent's agents in the Watchers' Order are still pursuing her. As is the Society of Travelers. Laila has a plan, though, and a few tricks of her own. But she will soon discover that not everything is at seems and there is no one left, in any universe, she can trust. The Apostate, the stunning sequel to The Forgotten, tells the story of Laila Johar's rise and fall in the Church and her journey, across multiple universes and against incredible odds, to make the man she once loved answer for what he has done.
