During the fierce controversy between the divines of the Protestant Reformation and those of the Roman Catholic Church, the latter asserted that the former treated the Bible -and treated it quite naturally- as a wax nose, which could be twisted into any shape and direction.

One of the longest books removed from the government "authorized" Bibles, some references to Jasher were forgotten. For example: "Is not this written in the Book of Jasher?" Joshua 10:13; "Behold, it is written in the Book of Jasher." 2 Sam 1:18. Fascinating. How many of these books and manuscripts were denounced, banned, cursed, no doubt burned and shredded-and last but not least, lost (and conveniently forgotten) for a thousand years. But with an uncanny persistence, the Book of Jasher has found its way back into circulation.

Freedom and determinism. The author of Jubilees is a true Pharisee in that he combines belief in Divine omnipotence and providence with the belief in human freedom and responsibility. He would have adopted heartily the statement of the Pss. Sol. ix. 7 (written some sixty years or more later)
Mars, the planet of mystery, and the planet of hope for a future for the human race in this solar system. This book is a history of the study of Mars and a scientific look at Mars' possibilities and difficulties.

Joseph Smith was a fraud so says the Christian Church. Yet, many points of his Book of Mormon have historical relevance as modern science continues to uncover our hidden past, particularly in the Americas. How did a young man, from rural early America, come up with such details, and convert his goals to life-long research into the mysteries? His claims of an angel giving him this sacred treasure is no different than that of modern channelers or pentecostal tongue talkers who channel angels, God and Jesus.

This volume is a TGS Historical Reprint. Tea was once the commodity of the kings and the aphrodisiac of empires. Tea began as a medicine and grew into a beverage. In China, in the eighth century, it entered the realm of poetry as one of the polite amusements. The fifteenth century saw Japan ennoble it into a religion of aestheticism--Teaism. Teaism is a cult founded on the adoration of the beautiful among the sordid facts of everyday existence. It inculcates purity and harmony, the mystery of mutual charity, the romanticism of the social order. It is essentially a worship of the Imperfect, as it is a tender attempt to accomplish something possible in this impossible thing we know as life.
