![]() SuperFreakonomics: Global Cooling, Patriotic Prostitutes, and Why Suicide Bombers Should Buy Life Insurance $29.99 In there first book they focused on economics in a very good yet different way by analysing the incentives to the actions we take. However in this book they looked at things from a different manner, one that is more for the social science and not in there realm of expertise ( and it shows). I really hope that in the next one they will re-think what they are good at and stick to it. sorry but this one is simply not good ![]() Suicide Bombers EP $18.95 YES - it is official. The apocalyptic return of LEAETHER STRIP is here! Claus Larsen is poised to launch his "Suicide Bombers" EP on the planet this October 2005 and he returns stronger than ever with an arsenal reloaded to the maximum for the ultimate dark industrial warfare all fans have been dreaming of. With countless albums under his belt, Claus Larsen has explored through his career various music styles within the electronic genre ranging from harsh aggressive EBM with distorted vocals to melodic dark synth pop, through more introspective bombastic symphonic orchestrations. This new EP gathers a bit of all these ingredients wrapped by Claus Larsen's unique genius and is no doubt the best present he could be offering to fans of strong electronic music with depth and edge! ![]() Dead for Good: Martyrdom and the Rise of the Suicide Bomber $19.95 Dr. Barlow's examination of suicide bombers, their mentality, motivations and history provides a broad overview of this issue as it relates not only to its use as an act of intentional terrorism, but as an explanation of some of the political and religious ideologies possessed by the suicide bomber as well. To the author's immense credit, however, it is anything but a dry, academic work. On the contrary, the book is insightful and well researched. Using superb writing, Barlow grabs hold of the reader by offering the reader a look into the lives, culture and idiosyncrasies of a people not often examined. Hugh Barlow's literate and thought provoking review of the history of suicide bombers and their quest to purify their faith by eliminating the infidels, and in doing so reaffirm their divine right to rule the world, can cause one to rethink many of the traditional notions once held. This is a great book and a must read. |
