A courageous look at a historic figure. From Oscar®-winner Oliver Stone, Snowden is a riveting personal look at one of the most polarizing figures of the twenty-first century, the man responsible for what has been described as the most far-reaching security breach in US intelligence history. This official motion picture screenplay edition, written by Kieran Fitzgerald and Oliver Stone, includes a foreword by David Talbot and dozens of photos from the film. In 2013, Edward Snowden (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) quietly leaves his job at the NSA and flies to Hong Kong to meet with journalists Glenn Greenwald (Zachary Quinto) and Ewen MacAskill (Tom Wilkinson), and filmmaker Laura Poitras (Melissa Leo) to reveal US government cyber surveillance programs of epic proportions. A top security contractor with virtuoso programming skills, Ed has discovered that a virtual mountain of data on digital communication is being assembled—not just from foreign governments and terror groups, but from ordinary Americans. Disillusioned with his work in the intelligence community, Snowden meticulously gathers hundreds of thousands of secret documents that will expose the full extent of the abuses. Leaving his longtime love Lindsay Mills (Shailene Woodley) behind, Ed finds the courage to act on his principles. Snowden opens the door on the untold story of Edward Snowden, examining the forces that turned a conservative young eager patriot into a historic whistleblower and posing provocative questions about which liberties we are willing to trade for protection.

First published in 1930, this book deals with Byzantine art, not as an isolated province, but as one intimately connected with the subsequent history of European painting. It is an important and exciting addition to the history of European Art and establishes, scientifically, theories which only existed in conjecture before its publication.

Here in brief compass is a survey of early Christian and early Medieval art as a whole with illustrations.

The fourth book by Isle of Wight author Dave Talbot. David explores a few more things to say about the world he finds himself in.

Este libro nos descubre otra historia de los Kennedy, muy distinta a la desenfadada y frívola que se suele contar. La historia de dos hombres, el presidente y su hermano Robert, que mantuvieron una dura lucha contra las fuerzas oscuras de su entorno: contra los generales y los dirigentes del aparato de inteligencia, empeñados en arrastrar al país a una nueva guerra mundial. Una lucha que acabó con el asesinato de John en Dallas, que Robert estaba convencido que era obra de una conspiración del crimen organizado, la CIA y los grupos que planeaban una acción violenta contra Cuba, lo que explica que se propusiera reabrir la investigación del magnicidio cuando llegase a la presidencia. Algo que impidió su muerte: un nuevo y oportuno crimen, probablemente organizado por las mismas fuerzas. Talbot ha basado esta innovadora visión del trágico destino de los dos hermanos en documentación recientemente desclasificada y en entrevistas con más de ciento cincuenta testigos, incluyendo a los más estrechos colaboradores de los hermanos Kennedy.
