Battling Big Business: Countering Greenwash, Infiltration, and Other Forms of Corporate Bullying
Lorenzo R. Scupoli

Green Books, 2002

Losing control in the media arena as a result of activist pressure has become a public relations nightmare for the modern multinational enterprise. Shell's Brent Spar fiasco is one well-known example, when the Greenpeace campaign against sinking the former drill platform achieved its goals. Monsanto's gross underestimation of the European resistance to the introduction of genetically engineered products is another. As more companies shift to ...

Michael Chandler, Rohan Gunaratna

Reaktion Books, 2008

Five years after 9/11, we question whether or not terrorist activity has actually decreased. Terrorist networks still span the globe and, some argue, they are more powerful than ever.

In Countering Terrorism , Rohan Gunaratna and Michael Chandler sift through ... 		  
  







  
  
Countering the Claims of Evangelical Feminism: Biblical Responses to the Key Questions3 reviews
Wayne Grudem

Multnomah Books, 2006

A Timely Response
When I purchased this ~300 page book, I did not realize that it was a condensation and slight updating of a much larger work by the same author, titled: "Evangelical Feminism and Biblical Truth: An Analysis of More Than 100 Disputed Questions." This book is reduced to about 40 key questions, and it covered most if not all the main arguments that I have heard put forward. Even at 300 pages, this ...

I wish that I had read this before my son started grade school, but now he is in the 4th grade and he went from being placed in special education, to a 4.0 dean's list GPA. God bless the power of prayer and guidance. ...

I found the book critical for deep global analytical reserch to keep abreast with patterns of subtle movement, abroad and right here ... 		  
  







  
  
How Terrorist Groups End: Lessons for Countering al Qa'ida1 review
Seth G. Jones

RAND Corporation, 2008

Growing Consensus
There appears to be a growing consensus within the U.S. Counter-Terrorism Community that the strategy formulated under the rubric, "Global War on Terrorism" (GWOT) has been a costly failure. As this latest Rand Corporation study makes clear, the al Qaeda movement against which the GWOT was in theory directed has actually grown stronger since 9/11 in spite of or because of the GWOT. In this ...

Upon This Slippery Rock: Countering Roman Catholic Claims to Authority3 reviews
Eric D. Svendsen

Calvary Press, 2007

Right On
Being a former Roman Catholic myself, I found this book very helpfull. The previous review was 100% correct.Well written, and to the point. It does what it says it's gonna do. It tends to deal with logic which is a interesting aproach, but effective. Answers demolish the arguments forwarded by the Roman Catholic Church.

Refuting Evolution: A Handbook for Students, Parents, and Teachers Countering the Latest Arguments for ...91 reviews
Jonathan Sarfati, Ken Ham

Master Books, 1999

Excellent critique of evolution-taught-as-fact
I'm glad I read the reviews here before writing this. The attacks by several of the reviewers on Sarfati's book serve only to underscore the blind indoctrination that characterizes evolutionary theory (key word in this sentence: "theory"). While Sarfati's book is not without some eyebrow-raising statements and logical gaps, his critique of evolution-taught-as-fact is powerful and undeniable. ... 		  
  







  
  
COUNTERING HOSTILE SURVEILLANCE - Detect, Evade, and Neutralize Physical Surveillance Threats1 review
ACM IV Security Services

Paladin Press, 2008

Mastering the Art and Science of Surveillance Detection and Antisurveillance
I would never have thought of doing a book review, but when I saw a very critical review of this publication, I thought it was necessary, as I know the author and his very stellar credentials as an expert in the field. First, I agree that the first two ACM IV publications are very valuable resources, particularly for security professionals. However, the review appears to miss the point, as ...
