New Releases by Michael Sheridan

The Danish architect and industrial designer Poul Kjaerholm has always been quietly revered in Modernist design circles, but in recent years his work has attained cult status amongst a younger generation of designers and connoisseurs. This exquisite monograph presents a comprehensive retrospective view of Kjaerholm''s work, and also shows the history out of which his aesthetic grew. It features seven shorter essays by the American architect and Kjaerholm expert Michael Sheridan, along with several hundred photographs and descriptive copy. It is the deepest and widest ranging study of Kjaerholm''s work to date.

Punched and kicked by her father and molested by local boys, young Kathy suffered in silence; she had nowhere to turn. Torn from her family at the age of eight and incarcerated ... a series of Catholic homes, she ended up in a psychiatric unit where she suffered terrifying electric-shock therapy and further- cruelty at the hands of her supposed carers. At the age of 12 she was sent to a Magdalen laundry where she fell victim to sexual ahuse. She gave birth to baby Annie just weeks before her 14th birthday. Only then did she realise her nightmare had just begun.

The infamous Magdalen Laundries operated for over eight decades. Thousands of young Irish girls were incarcerated in homes run by nuns and subjected to punishing work routines. Many were beaten and sexually abused. Kathy O''Bierne survived and has chosen to tell her story in the hope that she can help other victims.

This book is organized in thematic chapters, broken down into three sections, which each examine room 606 as a microcosm of the SAS House; reconstruct the original building; and trace the connections between Jacobsen''s masterpiece and his other works, from buildings to household objects.

The calendar dates, which are plainly documented in this book, are the exact dates that Jesus of Nazareth lived in the flesh, and performed his life and ministry upon the earth for the redemption of mankind. The dates are based on the dates of the Mosaic calendar of the Old Testament, the time prophecies of the Book of Daniel, and the narrative of the New Testament, which Jesus fulfilled during his life and ministry. This book, Jesus in Time, reveals the true and exact calendar dates of the life and ministry of Jesus Christ on our present-day Gregorian calendar. It reveals the true dates of his conception, birth, circumcision, presentation, baptism, transfiguration, last supper, gethsemane, crucifixion, entombment, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus Christ into heaven on our Gregorian calendar. This book is composed of four parts, each of which are necessary and that complement each other. Part I deciphers the Mosaic calendar of the Old Testament. Part II reveals the hidden meaning of the time prophecies of the Book of Daniel. Part III presents the exact dates of Jesus'' life and ministry. Part IV bears witness to the restoration of the church of Jesus Christ in the latter-days. The knowledge of the exact dates of Jesus'' life in the flesh simply serves to document his life in our human history. I sincerely hope that this knowledge will be a great blessing to all Christendom, and to all the world of mankind. May we finally know the true calendar dates of the life and ministry of Jesus Christ, the scriptures on which they are based, and the truth to which they bear witness.

Romans do nothing by halves. Nowhere is the espresso more bitter, the monuments as grandiose, the intrigue so ancient and the style as contrived. This book sets out to show the true Rome and the true Romans. It provides a mixture of history, literature and politics via diarists and commentators who chronicle generations of Roman hedonism and decay.
