The author of The Energy Codes combines quantum science and cosmic principles with practical tools to awaken your high brain centers and access your capacity to embody divine love—right now, just as you are.In our rapidly changing world, we are challenged to maintain a sense of self and not be consumed by the turbulence. Where can we turn to find the stability we need?The Anatomy of Awakening reveals that all we need is already with and within us, profoundly hidden in plain sight. Dr. Sue Morter, best-selling author of The Energy Codes, identifies the invisible, sacred energetic structure that underpins our human physiology—a flowing throughline that results from the series of compressions required for Source to manifest into human form. She also introduces us to the vibrational frequency of a Greater Love, a force that allows us to sustainably transcend our primitive brain, bringing greater peace and healing.Using an approach keyed to the highest of 12 chakras, The Anatomy of Awakening opens a vibrational combination lock, enlivening us in entirely new ways and helping us become more masterful in our lives. We align with five transformative universal principles or quantum “codes” to reveal a greater Truth:· The Creator Code—Awakening as Source· The Actioning Code—Flowing with Grace· The Destiny Code—Embodying quantum Love· The Revelation Code—Illuminating the Ecstatic Self· The Blessing Code—Unifying the realms into one Divine TruthBy awakening to these subtle energies and accepting that we are already the Divine, we free ourselves from the limitations of beliefs, learn to trust ourselves, and heal on every level. We activate a greater state of consciousness, bringing us closer to our highest selves. We transform.

We live in an age of extremes: populist leaders are setting the agenda, autocracies are on the march, and the liberal establishment is a bewildered blob, devoid of new ideas or fresh solutions. Having once powered progress in the form of democracy, mass welfare and defeating totalitarianism, liberals have the power to save the world again – but only if they rediscover the lost genius of their creed.Guiding us skilfully and entertainingly through the intellectual, cultural and political histories of liberalism, this book lays out a centrist agenda for today’s problems. It reminds us of the dynamism and fixed principles that have shaped the successes of liberalism and warns us against splitting into sub-groups that fail to grapple with the common good. Wooldridge proposes that, as well as reviving social mobility, liberals today need to be much more critical of big business – particularly if it makes money by manipulating choices and spreading misinformation – and rethink the laissez-faire approach to immigration, social disorder, and substance abuse.A powerful call to action, Centrists of the World Unite! shows us how liberals of all parties and none can come together in defending the values of liberal civilization from enemies without and within.

Christopher Clark's Kaiser Wilhelm II: A Life in Power is a short, fascinating and accessible biography of one of the 20th century's most important figures.King of Prussia, German Emperor, war leader and defeated exile, Kaiser Wilhelm II was one of the most important - and most controversial - figures in the history of twentieth-century Europe. But how much power did he really have?Christopher Clark, winner of the Wolfson prize for his history of Prussia, Iron Kingdom, follows Kaiser Wilhelm's political career from his youth at the Hohenzollern court through the turbulent decades of the Wilhelmine era into global war and the collapse of Germany in 1918, to his last days. He asks: what was his true role in the events that led to the outbreak of the First World War? What was the nature and extent of his control? What were his political goals and his success in achieving them? How did he project authority and exercise influence? And how did his people really view him?Through original research, Clark presents a fresh new interpretation of this contentious figure, focusing on how his thirty-year reign from 1888 to 1918 affected Germany, and the rest of Europe, for years to come.
