Book excerpt: In the annals of espionage, one name towers above all others: that of H. A. R. "Kim" Philby, the ringleader of the legendary Cambridge spies. A member of the British establishment, Philby joined the Secret Intelligence Service in 1940, rose to the head of Soviet counterintelligence, and, as M16's liaison with the CIA and the FBI, betrayed every secret of Allied operations to the Russians, fatally compromising covert actions to roll back the Iron Curtain in the early years of the Cold War. Written from Moscow in 1967, My Silent War shook the world and introduced a new archetype in fiction: the unrepentant spy. It inspired John Le Carre's Smiley novels and the later espionage novels of Graham Greene. Kim Philby was history's most successful spy. He was also an exceptional writer who gave us the great iconic story of the Cold War and revolutionized, in the process, the art of espionage writing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to Natalie Knight, Natural Healer and Health Coach, "The Silent War is a raw, bluntly honest, inspiring guide to rebuilding lives, perceptions and relationships after Combat or other traumatic events. PTSD is not just a soldier thing." This is literary journey into the mind and life of someone who is dealing with PTSD. Please don't confuse the purpose of this book, it is not written as a medical journal or a psychological textbook, or even as a life empowerment book. This is a real life toolbox with practical working techniques and knowledge to help rebuild misperceptions and misjudgments both, by and toward the person experiencing PTSD and those around them. Using his own life and experiences in dealing with PTSD after combat as a base line for discussion and point of reference for the reader, Cloud Mykals has created a guide, ready to be put into use, so as to give perspective, and provide hope to the person struggling with the PTSD; as well as, the loved ones of this person. Often times family members or loved ones of those suffering from PTSD are hurting as well from the rifts caused in their relationships due to simply not having a point of reference or understanding as to what or even how their loved one, thinks or truly feels. Many time the one with PTSD can not convey these thoughts or feelings and thus vital communication begins to breakdown. The combination of being unable to convey these feelings to the loved one, and the misconceptions, misunderstandings, and misperceptions between them can cause larger revolving issues of resentment, bitterness, confusion, uncertainty, then feelings of being unloved or unwanted and alone within themselves begin to take hold. These feelings only heighten the ever-darkening effects of PTSD. This can cause rising tensions on both sides and without help can all to often lead to disastrous ends, with both, hearts, and relationships damaged on every level and let's not forget the more tragic ends such as veteran suicide. Cloud Mykals knows from experience that dealing with these dark, powerful, and at times seemingly hopeless thoughts and negative feelings can leave you in a world of confused reality, plagued by psychological shifts which have physical effects. It can become both depressing and frightening. Cloud spent many years going through this dark and twisted rollercoaster and on going effects of PTSD after his time in combat during the IRAQ War. For many others it may an abusive relationship, a life changing accident, or a myriad of other scenarios. Whether it is you or your loved one who may be a veteran or a civilian matters not, the heart and mind of us all as well as the pain we experience is much the same. "I have compiled years of my personal life, experience and knowledge in this book to show that lives can be rebuilt and relationships can be mended. "The Silent War" within can be won. A new life awaits, I have already lived exactly where you are; perhaps, our exact situations bringing us to those places were different but either way we are much the same. I extend my hand in friendship to you. Your life has meaning, and worth and you are not alone. Take the knowledge in this book as my gift to you, and pass it on with more of your own to others so that together we may save as many lives and relationships as we can." - Cloud Mykals

Book excerpt: Ben Bova's The Silent War is the breakneck continuation to The Asteroid Wars series that can end only in earth's salvation--or the annihilation of all that humankind has ever accomplished in space. When corporations go to war, standard business practice goes out the window. Astro Corporation is led by indomitable Texan Pancho Lane, Humphries Space Systems by the rich and ruthless Martin Humphries, and their fight is over nothing less than resources of the Asteroid Belt itself. As fighting escalates, the lines between commerce and politics, boardroom and bedroom, blur--and the keys to victory will include physics, nanotechnology, and cold hard cash. As they fight it out, the lives of thousands of innocents hang in the balance, including the rock rats who make their living off the asteroids, and the inhabitants of Selene City on Earth's moon. As if matters weren't complicated enough, the shadowy Yamagata corporation sets its sights on taking advantage of other people's quarrels, and space pirate Lars Fuchs decides it's time to make good on his own personal vendetta.

Download or read book The Private Life of Kim Philby written by Rufina Filbi and published by St Ermins. This book was released on 2003-05-01 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masterspy Kim Philby's secret life is far stronger than any spy fiction. Recruited by the Soviet KGB at Cambridge in the 1930s, he made his way into the British Secret Intelligence Service where he became head of its anti-Soviet section, then liaison officer in Washington with the CIA and FBI—revealing everything he learned to his Moscow bosses. He was in the running to become chief of the British service, but following the defection of two of his fellow spies in 1951, Philby found himself under a persistent cloud of suspicion and he eventually fled himself in 1963. Before he died in Moscow in 1988, Philby had become a symbol in the West of Soviet-inspired treachery—an Englishman from a privileged background who had betrayed the entire free world. With interviews by Hayden Peake and an introduction by Michael Lubimov, Rufina Philby's memoir of her notorious husband provides a portrait of the masterspy that reveals how much he had previously managed to conceal.
