Ta Chuan is at the heart of the "I Ching," the world's most profound divination system and the basis of Chinese cosmology. Now, in a lyrical and scrupulously faithful Taoist translation and commentary, Stephen Karcher opens up this revolutionary classic and explores it for the benefit of Western readers, explaining to them how its insightful teachings can be applied to life in the modern world. Much of the Ta Chuan is focused on telling readers how to use the techniques of change. This is the most potent spiritual tool in existence, a way to radically transform awareness, open the heart, and contact the helping spirits. The book teaches readers to free themselves from fear and compulsion, achieve their full potential, become wiser and more able, become more helpful to others, and to fulfil their fates.

Nobody likes to think about the possibility of being attacked or robbed, or our children or elderly parents being at risk, but it is a danger that many of us face as we go about our daily lives. From "how to spot an attacker" to "helping others," Safe At All Times tells us how to respond in a dangerous or potentially dangerous situation. It explains what to do in personal attack scenarios that are particularly worrying to most people, including mugging, car jacking, road rage, stalking, and rape. The book covers situations from everyday scenarios such as travelling to work, to safety on ships and airplanes when on vacation. It includes guidelines on how to defend yourself, whatever your size or strength; checklists that detail the best ways to protect your home, car, and property; information on the law and what you can and can't do to protect yourself; and highlights what an attacker looks for, and what you can do about it.

Across Europe and North America, breweries large and small continue to craft rich, flavorsome beers in the tradition of the great monastic brewers. Many are made by monks themselves, working from the seclusion of their cloisters deep in Bavaria and Belgium; other abbey-style beers are produced by modern micro-breweries seeking to preserve time-honored traditions. Now, Roger Protz offers detailed information on these breweries and the beers they so lovingly craft. Lavishly illustrated in color, the book offers an abundance of tasting notes and practical advice, including tips on choosing, tasting, and serving. Roger Protz, who’s been called the "King of Beer Writers" by Time Out magazine, is the winner of many awards, including the Gold, Silver, and Bronze from the North American Guild of Beer Writers. Among his many books are Stout and Porter and The Good Beer Guide.
