      Magnificent photographic journey into the Sahara, Rift Valley, Kalahari and Namib - the people and the landscapes

      The Deserts of Africa
    • From the Rub al-Khali and the Sinai to the Great Sandy, the Great Basin and the Kalahari, Michael Martin, an internationally renowned photographer, has travelled through every desert on Earth, crossing Asia, Australia, the Americas and Africa, to compile this beautifully photographed volume. Far from being bleak and barren wastelands, these deserts boast natural features of staggering beauty. Afghanistan’s Bamian region is notable for its deep turquoise lakes set amidst towering, rocky mountains. The Danakil’s unnamed volcanoes glow in the Ethiopian night, while Chile’s Atacama region harbours geysers that can erupt at any moment. In addition to these awe-inspiring landscapes, Martin introduces us to the stoic peoples who eke out an existence in such inhospitable environments.

      Want to be a successful trader? It's not enough to master generic trading strategies: you must first know yourself. You must understand your own emotional predilections and psychological tendencies. You must learn how to match your strategies to your own personality. You must choose strategies that are sustainable over the long haul, that you can tolerate-and execute. Michael Martin's The Inner Voice of Trading explains why deep self-knowledge is so crucial to successful trading, helps you gain that self-knowledge, and guides you in applying it. Drawing on interviews and discussions with great traders like Michael Marcus and Ed Seykota, he shows how to quiet your mind, develop an "inner voice" you can rely on, and make it your most important trading ally.

      The book presents a thorough defense of atheism by distinguished philosopher Michael Martin, who challenges the notion that unbelief equates to immorality or a meaningless life. He argues that objective morality and a fulfilling existence can be achieved without belief in God. Martin critiques the prevalent Christian worldview in American society, suggesting it is fundamentally flawed as a foundation for morality and meaning. Through his philosophical insights, he aims to reshape perceptions of atheism in a predominantly religious culture.
