“In our deserts the makers of deadly perfume have worked hard to provide us with the weapons to defend ourselves and destroy the Zionists should they ever attack us, or their allies, should they, too, dare to attack us.” —Saddam Hussein In the aftermath of the 1990–1991 Gulf War, Mossad agent David Morton has carte blanche to stop terrorist Khalil Raza from releasing a form of anthrax capable of wiping out millions in minutes. A megalomaniac terrorist holds the world hostage, threatening to poison every major city with a deadly virus. He has the means—a lethal poison—and demonstrates its potency by adding a small vial of it to the drinking water in a small South African town, killing all of the inhabitants. With only seven days to meet his demands, the world’s leaders call on David Morton, a brilliant and ruthless Mossad agent. The result is a tense global chase, leading from China to Athens, London, Libya, South Africa, Tel Aviv, and New York, drawing good and evil closer and closer in a battle to the death. Deadly Perfume penetrates the real world of intelligence-gathering to reveal its secret subculture, with its hidden loyalties and agendas. In David Morton, Gordon Thomas has imagined a world so terrifyingly real that it poses the question, Is it imagined at all?

A new perspective on the D-Day landings with the heroic stories of a number of agents sent into Nazi Occupied Europe.

UPDATED 2019 EDITION • The pioneering book that’s guided millions of parents to more effectively resolve conflicts, communicate, and create loving relationships with their children—from Nobel Peace Prize nominee Dr. Thomas Gordon P.E.T., or Parent Effectiveness Training, began in 1962 as the first national parent-training program to teach parents how to communicate more effectively with kids and offer step-by-step advice to resolve family conflicts so everybody wins.

L.E.T. has changed countless corporations and private businesses-including many Fortune 500 companies-with its down-to-earth communication and conflict resolution skills. Now, this indispensable source has been newly revised with updated research and timely case studies. "The skill-building aspect is why L.E.T. training is a high priority for our managers and supervisors. The chance that leaders will make changes in this critical leadership skill area-the way they communicate-is higher with L.E.T. than with anything else that I've seen on the market." (H. Levine, Vice President, Business Consulting and Organizational Development, Merck & Co., Inc.)

(Kent Stickler, President, The Stickler Learning Group) "L.E.T. is a ground-breaking book and training methodology that has proven to provide skills and tools to managers in a corporate setting. The skills and tools are timeless." (Liz Mazzotta, Training Director, Mutual of Omaha)

Created in 1951 to ensure an embattled Israel's future, the Mossad has been responsible for the most audacious and thrilling feats of espionage, counterterrorism, and assassination ever ventured. Gordon Thomas's 1999 publication of Gideon's Spies, resulting from closed-door interviews with Mossad agents, informants, and spymasters, and drawing from classified documents and top-secret sources, revealed previously untold truths about the Israeli intelligence agency. And now, in this fourth edition, Thomas updates his classic text and shows a Mossad as it has historically been: brilliant, ruthless, and flawed, but ultimately awesome. Six all-new chapters and updated appendices and glossaries examine: *The London bombings: the untold full story of Mossad's involvement *Mossad's key role in the G8 Summit in Scotland *How Mossad discovered that by June 2005 Al Qaeda had acquired fissionable material from Pakistan and former Soviet Union Islamic Republics *Secret phone calls to Washington that led to Tony Blair changing his position over war with Iraq *WMD and Libya, North Korea, Iran, Pakistan, China, and the House of Saud *The mega spy in the Bush and Clinton administrations *The PLO, Fatah, and Hamas * The technology wars, and North Korea's bird-flu war games and "ethnic bombs" *The Chinese involvement in the Los Alamos fiasco
