The Life/Death Rhythms of Ancient Empires outlines the flow of history from 3000BC to 1400AD to identify the factors that make up dominant, just, prosperous civilizations that can be described as golden cultures. These factors were found to have common features and the cultures themselves could be described in cyclical terms. This meant that the rise and fall of future dominant cultures could be roughly forecast to some degree in terms of hundreds...

The Revealing (in Greek, the Apocalypse) is the telling of the history of the age of the Gentiles before it happens. The age of the Gentiles, sometimes called the time of the Gentiles or the church age, began with the final act of the Jewish age, the destruction of Herod's temple in AD 70. This is the third of the three and a half ages (or times) of man-a time, times, and half a time. Enoch was the prophet of the first age (the age of the patriarchs),...

In 53BC the Proconsul Marcus Crassus and 36,000 of his legionaries were crushed by the Parthians at Carrhae in what is now eastern Turkey. Crassus' defeat and death and the 20,000 casualties his army suffered were an extraordinary disaster for Rome. The event intensified the bitter, destructive struggle for power in the Roman republic, curtailed the empire's eastward expansion and had a lasting impact on the history of the Mediterranean and the Middle...

The Proposal I wrote the book to provide awareness unto glaring sociological issues. I looked into my life and I saw a lot of mistakes. I made mistakes due to my lack of comprehension. I feel a person should be accountable for his or her actions. I found that society has placed obstacles that hinder and do not contribute to the development of the human being. Thus, the human has to adapt to the confusion called changing conditions. I know that life...

History Holds the Key to Understanding the Present Most of the time, when you sit down with a book of history, you are going to be reading about men. Men who win wars and men who lose wars. Men who create empires, and men who destroy empires. Men who author great works and design great machines that change the course of the world. The thing is, half the people in the world are women. What about them? Women have also done a lot of creating, and destroying,...
