Aatank: आतंक
by Jack Straw“आतंक” जैक स्ट्रॉ द्वारा लिखी गई एक रहस्य और रोमांच से भरपूर कहानी है, जो पाठकों को सस्पेंस और जटिल पात्रों के जाल में बांधे रखती है। कहानी की शुरुआत जेम्स मेरेडिथ नामक व्यक्ति के साथ होती है, जिसे फर्डिनेंड बुलफोर्ड की हत्या का दोषी ठहराया जाता है। मेरेडिथ को एक ईर्ष्यालु प्रेमी के रूप में पेश किया जाता है, जिसने अपने प्रतिद्वंद्वी को मौत के घाट उतार दिया। हालांकि, अदालती साक्ष्य और गवाहों के बावजूद, यह पूरी तरह स्पष्ट नहीं होता कि असली अपराधी कौन है। कहानी में जेम्स की मंगेतर जीन ब्रिगेरलैंड की भूमिका भी महत्वपूर्ण है, जो कहानी में रहस्य और जटिलता जोड़ती है। जीन एक ऐसी महिला के रूप में चित्रित की गई है जो मेरेडिथ के लिए अपने प्रेम का दावा करती है, लेकिन उसके इरादे संदिग्ध हैं। जीन के प्रति जैक ग्लोवर, जो कि मेरेडिथ का वकील है, बेहद सतर्क रहता है। ग्लोवर को संदेह है कि जीन इस साजिश का असली मास्टरमाइंड हो सकती है, और वह मेरेडिथ को बचाने के लिए किसी भी हद तक जाने को तैयार है। कहानी के केंद्र में यह प्रश्न है कि क्या वास्तव में मेरेडिथ अपराधी है, या फिर वह एक गहरी साजिश का शिकार हुआ है? जैक स्ट्रॉ ने इस उपन्यास के माध्यम से धोखा, प्रेम, ईर्ष्या, और विश्वासघात के जटिल पहलुओं को बखूबी उकेरा है। कहानी का हर मोड़ पाठक को चौंकाता है और अंत तक सस्पेंस बनाए रखता है। यह उपन्यास उन परिस्थितियों की पड़ताल करता है जहां सच्चाई और झूठ के बीच की रेखा धुंधली हो जाती है। "आतंक" एक ऐसी कहानी है जो न्याय और अन्याय के बीच की जटिलताओं को समझने का प्रयास करती है, और पाठकों को अंत तक सस्पेंस में डूबा रखती है।
Abbreviations Dictionary (Routledge Revivals)
by Dean A. Stahl Karen LandenPublished in 2001: Abbreviations, nicknames, jargon, and other short forms save time, space, and effort - provided they are understood. Thousands of new and potentially confusing terms become part of the international vocabulary each year, while our communications are relayed to one another with increasing speed. PDAs link to PCs. The Net has grown into data central, shopping mall, and grocery store all rolled into one. E-mail is faster than snail mail, cell phones are faster yet - and it is all done 24/7. Longtime and widespread use of certain abbreviations, such as R.S.V.P., has made them better understood standing alone than spelled out. Certainly we are more comfortable saying DNA than deoxyribonucleic acid - but how many people today really remember what the initials stand for? The Abbreviations Dictionary, Tenth Edition gives you this and other information from Airlines of the World to the Zodiacal Signs.

ABODE OF LIFE: STAR TREK #6 (Star Trek: The Original Series)
by Lee CoreyThe sixth installment in the Star Trek original series, The Abode of Life.The citizens of the planet Mercan cannot conceive of worlds beyond their own. Their sun is prone to deadly radioactive flare-ups, and the Mercans have organized their life around the need to survive The Ordeal.

The Abolition of the Ottoman Caliphate, 1924: Debates and Implications (Durham Modern Middle East and Islamic World Series)
by Elisa GiunchiThis book explores the decision by the Grand National Assembly of Turkey in 1924 to abolish the caliphate. The Ottoman sultans had long borne the title of caliphs of Islam, with all the prestigious authority throughout the Muslim world that went with it, and in the aftermath of the First World War the caliphate still retained great symbolic relevance.The book considers the questions that arose with its abolition, including whether or not the caliphate should be revived, reformed or replaced by other forms of political affiliation and organization. It also assesses more general issues concerning identity and legitimate authority, and how to reconcile time-honoured religious institutions and concepts with modernity, the nation-state and affiliations of an ethnic and religious nature. The book additionally addresses the debates within the pan-Islamic congresses concerning the fate of the caliphate, and the implications of its abolition for Kurdish–Turkish relations and for the British and French Empires with their large Muslim populations.
Above the Noise: My Story of Chasing Calm
by DeMar DeRozanFrom one of the most outspoken and respected NBA athletes comes a groundbreaking and remarkable memoir chronicling a very public struggle with depression, in the hopes that other people will not suffer alone.&“DeMar DeRozan&’s story is one of adaptability, courage, and love. The persistent effort on his part to rise above is compelling and important.&”—Coach Gregg Popovich, from the foreword &“As men, and especially Black men, we don&’t talk about our mental health enough. We struggle to admit when things aren&’t okay, even when it&’s obvious to everybody around us. I&’ve seen how toxic that can become. I&’ve experienced it myself, keeping everything under wraps until your head and heart are full of fire and rage.&”DeMar DeRozan, six-time NBA All-Star, has been called a &“basketball savant&” (ESPN) and &“the best closer in the NBA&” (GQ)—but when he went public with his depression, it sparked a conversation that reached far beyond the court. By breaking the stigma of speaking out, he added a new, seldom-heard voice to the mental health dialogue: a successful Black male athlete, openly naming his pain and advocating for others to do the same.Now it&’s time to tell the full story. Born and raised in Compton, DeRozan was no stranger to hardship—living in poverty, losing friends to gang violence. In worn-out school gyms and community centers, fueled by hunger and a desire to prove himself, he started to rise, but doubts followed. In Above the Noise, DeRozan opens up about his proudest triumphs and the times he felt so weighed down he couldn't get out of bed. He reflects on what it took to make a name for himself in a new country after getting drafted by the Toronto Raptors, the pressure of playing with veteran athletes as a twenty-year-old rookie, and the pain of losing role models.From a scared, angry kid to a confident father of five, DeRozan traces his journey to basketball stardom and the forces that honed him into the player—and the slowly healing person—he is today. It will encourage anyone who has ever felt alone in their struggles and inspire people to rise above the noise and speak their truth.

Abroad: A Novel
by Katie CrouchNot since Donna Tartt's The Secret History has a novel this intoxicating captured the headiness and dark temptations of university life. The old Etruscan city of Grifonia swarms with year-abroad students—thousands of them from all over. Ostensibly, they've come to study. But really they are here to reinvent themselves, to shuck their identities and buck constraints far from the watchful eyes of parents and others who know them too well. There's a reason Henry James's young ladies went to Europe with chaperones. Today's young ladies don't. In Abroad, the bestselling novelist Katie Crouch—whose Girls in Trucks brilliantly portrayed the cruelties of postcollege New York life on a Southern girl trying to make her way—tears a story from international headlines and transforms it into a page-turning parable of modern girlhood, full of longing and reckless behavior. As the heroine (and the reader) of Abroad will soon discover, Grifonia is a city filled with dangerous secrets of many kinds: ancient, eternal, infernal. "Prepare to have your heart broken while laughing out loud at this breathtaking, scathingly sardonic novel," wrote People magazine's reviewer about Crouch's Men and Dogs. "From her opening line. . . Crouch grabs you and never lets go." In Abroad, Crouch's mesmerizing talents are again on full display.
