The Essential Gematria Workbook
Let no one ignorant of geometry read this.
Paperback || Y.H.S. Boon || New Sphinx Press
The New Testament thus contains mystical and esoteric knowledge, myths, philosophies and history. When we understand their coding technique, which is very reminiscent of story sums / word problems, we can begin to decipher the Bible.
And therefore we can be taught such disciplines as arithmetic, plane geometry, spatial geometry, astronomy, and harmony in the same (esoteric) way as the Ptolemaic Greek philosophers taught at their academies.
For example the second line from John 21:1-14.

Horthy and the battle for the Hungarian nation state
The source of anti-European sentiment in Hungary
Paperback || Perry Pierik || Aspekt B.V., Uitgeverij
Hungary rose as a nation state after the First World War, from the ashes of the Dual Monarchy. State regent and admiral without a fleet, Miklós Horthy, played a crucial role herein. The path to independence was far from simple for the Hungarians. Shortly after the First World War the communists staged a coup and the Entente Powers, and in particular the Pan-Europeans amongst them, tried thereafter to reinstate the Habsburg Empire.
This put Horthy, as former wing adjutant of the Austro-Hunga...
The Transatlantic Era (1989-2020) in Documents and Speeches
2021 || Paperback || Bram Boxhoorn e.a. || Taylor & Francis
There is still a gap in how the period after 1989-1991 is conceptualised. The proposed book's challenging designation of the 'transatlantic era' as the motif for 1989-2020 enables the reader to think differently about the period we have been living through. The separation of the 1989-2020 period into three clearly marked-out decades works well for structuring the book, providing a clear overview and supportive base for the book's principal argument.
Accessible for BA and MA students. Makes fu...
