Hervé Jaubert
ESCAPE FROM DUBAI
ISBN 978-0-929915-94-4, 348 pp., illustrated with photos
Honored with awards at 2010 Next Generation Indie Book Awards and the 2010 San Francisco
Book Festival
Hervé Jaubert has received world-wide notice for his first book, and he
is currently filming a documentary based on it. He appeared in an ABC
documentary and has been interviewed by The Washington Post and
numerous foreign newspapers. Jaubert relocated his business to Dubai
and created the most sophisticated and preeminent submarine factory
every designed. Falling victim to a corrupt system and egomaniacal leaders, he found himself held hostage in Dubai, by extortion and under
threat of police torture. Using the skills he developed in an earlier career
as an intelligence officer, he escaped from Dubai to the U.S. In 2008.
Escape from Dubai is the real life account of his adventure, from his first
meeting with government officials of Dubai to his harrowing escape.
“Former French spy Hervé Jaubert Pierre writes a shocking book on how he fled the UAE on
a sailboat to Mumbai, without his passport. ...This is a story which
will make fiction thrillers pale in comparison... an escape from
Dubai by this former French intelligence officer... who claims he
was wrongly indicted for embezzlement, fraud and sexual harassment there. But a report in Dubai states that Hervé Jaubert Pierre is
on the run and the police are trying to track him.”

PEACE IS CHILD’S PLAY
On Childhood, Play, and Peace in A World of Contest
Peace is already in the child, who takes nothing more seriously than what adults dismiss as
childish and sentimental.
Peace Is Child’s Play is neither a conventional book about peace nor a book about conventional play. This
book is a radical challenge to hundreds of years of belief in one of our most coveted and cherished ideals;
human conflict is not only natural but also necessary for our survival. The premise of this book is based on
a seemingly absurd idea—peace is child’s play. The degree of its absurdity is only exceeded by the absurdity
of our belief that life is a contest for survival in which making war creates peace. This belief contains
humanity’s most deeply held truths—and they are wrong! Contest is a dead end. To continue to live as if
contest with the world is our only choice is a delusion of the most dangerous kind, reaching it’s grisly conclusion when we play to win and every victory is a funeral.
Peace Is Child’s Play proposes a profound behavioral paradigm shift from a contest world of won to a playful world of one. Not only do I suggest that our current ideas about war and peace are dead-ends, but also
that we have a viable alternative. While we have no problem making children into soldiers, prostitutes, and
victims, it never occurs to us that children might make us into peacemakers. In rewriting the story of
humankind this book is a break from the past for which there are no precedents. I’m suggesting a transformation in which things become so radically different that the old rules break down and we know virtually
nothing.
The purpose of this book is to provide a cipher to the code of peace encrypted in child’s play presenting
humans with a previously unthinkable and seemingly impossible choice: we can choose to make conflict
obsolete. This code is a breathtakingly ingenious neural pattern recognition system inherent in life.
Unlocking this code requires a fundamental rethinking of our ideas about children and childhood, play
and contest, war and peace. Over the past thirty some years I have encountered thousands of children
who are living proof that however absurd it may seem child’s play is humanity’s defining hope for peace.

PLAYING BY HEART – THE VISION & PRACTICE OF BELONGING
Playing By Heart is an invitation to come out and play with our wonderful world, to see
beyond our lists and definitions and join the mystery ourselves. To receive this invitation
requires a child-like participation of our senses and a way of knowing that is more holistic than
analytic, more heartfelt than discriminating. "Come out and play" is more than an iconoclastic
technique, more than a recapitulation of childish frivolity, more than comic relief from stress
or recreational diversion. It involves a genuine transcendence that is grounded in and nourished by life…
Playing By Heart is not a book about a predetermined line of research or a survey into the
nature of children's play. I am not examining moral, social and cognitive development through
play. I am not collecting data. This book is a pirate ship sent to kidnap you, as I have been kidnapped by the children, perhaps a kind of ark, which will transport you so that you might
come out and play with the world.

HEALING CIVILIZATION
Bringing Personal Transformation into the Societal Realm Through Education and the
Integration of the Psychic Family
Foreword by Jean Houston
256 pages, $19.95 retail, ISBN: 9780895561633
In this ground-breaking book, Dr. Claudio Naranjo—Chilean-born
psychiatrist, Gestalt therapist, spiritual consciousness pioneer, author
of 13 other books in English (including The End of Patriarchy), and
member of the Club of Rome—seeks to heal our collective illness, by
bringing his more than 30 years of successful work with individual
and group transformation into the societal realm. It is his hope that
with the help of this book and those who take its message to heart,
our culture can at last be made whole—and true civilization can
begin.
Dr. Naranjo references an extensive literature on the subject of the
“patriarchal mind,” beginning with the German scholar, Bachofen,
and including contemporary writers Rianne Eisler and David Korten. Naranjo not only analyzes
and traces the origins of the patriarchal culture and mindset—but also he recommends radical
reform and restructuring of education of the young to improve the basis of all our contemporary
societies.
Dr. Claudio Naranjo is known for his teaching and literary work world-wide, with numerous titles
in print in Spain, Russia, Italy, Brazil, and many other language markets. He travels extensively and
is much in demand as a keynote speaker and workshop teacher. His best known works in English
language editions are The One Quest, Character & Neurosis, The Way of Silence and the Talking
Cure, The Enneagram of Society, and Gestalt Therapy.

SPIRITUAL INTELLIGENCE AT WORK
Global 13 Publishing
In this groundbreaking book for the corporate world, government and institutions, Colin has succeeded in finding a way to present the Radical Forgiveness technology to the business community
in a way that is meaningful to them, valuable and non-threatening. The sub-title of the book is:
A Radical Approach to Increasing Productivity, Raising Morale and
Preventing Conflict in the Workplace.
The Rationale
Constituting the very lifeblood of an organization are the four main
forms of energy flowing through it - money, data, materials and
"humenergy." If the flow of any one of these forms of energy is impeded, the organization suffers greatly. The first three, being subject to
measurement and control, are easily managed. Humenergy is not.
Yet, we know it to be extremely harmful.
Humenergy is the subtle and largely unconscious unresolved material
that every individual, from the CEO down to the lowest paid worker,
brings to work and acts out in order to heal it - usually to the great
detriment of the organization.
Humenergy is so subtle it does not yield to traditional conflict resolution procedures and will create
problems at all levels within the organization. It is a problem for which, up until now, there has
been no answer.
This book outlines a revolutionary approach to dealing with toxic humenergy. The Quantum
Energy Management System is a low-cost, human-resources tool that, surprisingly enough, utilizes
that which everyone has in equal abundance to neutralize harmful humenergy. It's our spiritual
Intelligence,

The benefits that result from its use include:
• A significant reduction in incidents of conflict, dissent, discord, sabotage, cynicism, racial tension,
negativity, absenteeism, turnover and attrition.
• A significant increase in morale, job satisfaction, loyalty, cooperative team spirit, productivity and
profit.
The book presents its ideas both in story form and didactically. For 136 of the 200 or so pages, a
story runs on the left-hand pages and the logical material runs on the right-hand pages. Thereafter
it reverts to normal.

Suppose you died tomorrow. What would it be like to discover in
your own life review that every event in your life was all part of an
elaborate and beautifully executed plan? That you chose youru
parents? That you agreet up front with other sould to give you
certain “soul-grown” experiences? That you never made a mistake
in your whole life - and so on?
Venting his anger by riding his Harley Davidson motorcycle at an
excessive speed on a wet road, Steve Parker skids and crashes into a
tree. He dies. The rest of the story in PART ONE is about him
first realizing that he is dead and then making his way towards the
light, along with another soul, Joe, who he encounters and teams
up with along the way. Before they go, Steve enters into his wife’s
dream in order to comfort her. Dr. Death comes for them and he
and Joe find themselves speeding up the tunnel of light on a
Harley, would you believe, feeling pulled towards a beautiful loving presence. There he meets Harley, his Angel of Incarnation, who then takes him through his life
review. (This senior angel actually has a penchant for Harley Davidson motorcycles!)
The story provides the template for you, in PART TWO, to map out your own life review up to
present time, basing it on the assumptions provided in the story. One of these is, if you are attracted
to this book you must already have reached your goal for the humber of karmic units gainged in this
lifetime an dearned the right to begin the Awakening Process. This means that from this point on,
you can begin consciously co-creating your life with Spirit as a fully Awakened Being. PART

Health/Healing/Energy Medicine/Chakras/Character types
All those who would like to know more about themselves,
their subconscious shadow and their character will benefit
from this book. In it, readers can find information (from all
cultural epochs and spiritual disciplines) about life energy,
the Aura, Chakras, and their exceptional significance for
health, joie de vivre and finding meaning in life.
Shamans, acupuncture, magic, and medieval humoral theory
all have their say, as does the modern psychological and psychoanalytical viewpoint. The author
combines and connects the scientific worldview with the insights of modern energy medicine and
ancient spiritual wisdom. From this emerges a new worldview in which individual emotional evolution represents the true key.
The hidden connections between vegetative centers in the body and emotional conflicts are
brought to light. The author’s experience in daily practice has brought him to the firm conviction
that energy blocks due to emotional conflicts are the primary cause of interpersonal problems and
the majority of diseases.
Yet conflicts are by no means all negative! Vividly and dramatically, the book portrays how individuals can mature and grow through dealing with their conflicts, and ultimately gain a greater understanding of and insight into themselves and others by discovering their character type.
Emotional conflicts are humanity’s worst energy thieves. Detecting and treating them, in order to
help people realize their actual potential, is what this book is all about.
It points out ways to attain to greater self-knowledge – but also to learn how to understand others
better, becoming healthier and happier in the process. True spiritual growth is only possible after
one has overcome one’s psychic dark side.
The author describes a straightforward new system of energy medicine which he discovered and
developed for detecting and healing energy blocks in the shortest possible time: Psychosomatic
Energetics.
Numerous case histories and practical tips bring the book to life and make it a pleasure to read –
and, moreover, an indispensable companion on one’s own spiritual journey through life.

But for those with the courage to explore the last frontiers--the uncharted expanses of the human mind--his latest report on the "solid state conspiracy," on communication with extraterrestrials and on the imperative of dolphin/human dialog, will grip the reader with its sense of cosmic vision.

how he programs such spaces and experiences through his method of self-metaprogramming.
Displaying a frankness that is refreshingly objective, The Center of the Cyclone offers a rational scientific explanation of how the mind works in those special states of consciousness.

“Spiritual progress does not automatically make a good actor,”
notes author, actor, acting teacher, and theatre director Mark
Olsen. But it can help. Olsen offers both a survey of theatre history
and an in-depth assessment of the acting craft. Among his insights
is the revelation that the acting master Stanislavski trained students to reach the state of “I am,” an ancient mystical connection
that major spiritual traditions consider descriptive of the presence
of God. Olsen includes in this collection of essays and teaching
tools his own program of acting exercises and training modules,
with an emphasis on inner exploration, artistic transcendence, synergy and synchronicity for performers, and personal as well as professional development for
the working actor.

IN THE SHAMAN'S EYES
Memoirs/Esoterics/Healing , Original in Spanish from Peru
ISBN: 0-89556-053-4, 208 pages
This is an autobiography including most the author's life up to forty years
old. Due to a serious illness, Mamani came back from Lima to Arequipa,
Peru. His father looked after his health with the curanderos' teachings. This
experience changed his life completely: a series of incredible meetings and
revelatory dreams followed, especially his meeting with Anta Willki on an excursion to Mt.
Ampato. As his guiding spirit, she gave him a task: to communicate the Inka's
spiritual knowledge and to help humanity to save Mother Earth (called Pachamama). He had to
re-discover and to collect the ancient knowledge destroyed by the Conquest and then to spread it
among modern Indians who had lost their roots

Andrew Lam
PERFUME DREAMS: REFLECTIONS ON THE VIETNAMESE DIASPORA
ISBN: 978-1-57914-020-1, 192 pp., 8 pages of photos
In his first collection of essays, noted journalist and NPR commentator Andrew Lam explores his lifelong struggle for identity
as a Viet Kieu, or a Vietnamese national living abroad. At age
eleven, Lam, the son of a South Vietnamese general, came to
California on the eve of the fall of Saigon to communist forces.
He traded his Vietnamese name for a more American one and
immersed himself in the allure of the American dream: something not clearly defined for him or his family. Reflecting on the
meanings of the Vietnam War to the Vietnamese people themselves—particularly to those in exile—Lam picks with searing
honesty at the roots of his doubleness and his parents' longing for
a homeland that no longer exists.
