During the long years of civil strife in China the Nationalist authorities amassed extensive materials on their Communist adversaries. Now stored in government institutions on Taiwan, these materials are an excellent source for the study of the Chinese Communist movement. Among them is the Bureau of Investigation Collection (BIC), which holds over 300,000 volumes of primary documents on the Chinese Communist movement. The purpose of Chinese Communist Materials is, without any attempt at comprehensive listing of the Bureau’s holdings, to give scholars a representative description of the collection, to point out its implications for research, and suggest new areas for research at the Bureau in the fields of political science and history [1, 4].

2012 Nibiru RisingMany of the ancient races of Earth predicted Armageddon, the end of the world. Tribes spread out across the continents including the Aztec, Mayans, Sumerians, Egyptians and Cherokee, all arrived at the same mystical date of 21.12.12When a signal is discovered at the Parkes Observatory in Australia, Rachael Marks, a young astronomer, must travel across three continents and beyond to uncover its origin and find the truth about Earths past and its future. Are the ancient race's predictions true and can the human species be saved from the coming apocalypse that threatens to end all life on Earth?

2013 Nibiru's Shadow It has been two years since Nemesis destroyed life on earth. After beginning new lives on the small planet of Nibiru, Rachael Marks and the crew of the Emperor begin the long task of rebuilding the human race via the precious cargo of DNA they risked everything to preserve. But as the Olmec numbers dwindle, their gaze is once again drawn to earth's refugees, watching the crew as they celebrate the birth of the first children of Nibiru, with a selfish desire to rebuild their own race. The Olmec must be stopped before it is too late and humanity's fragile future is no more. And after Cheang's suspicious death on earth, the full extent of his deception is revealed in Earth's orbit, as China unveils its final secret, Saviour.

In 1983 President Reagan announced his Strategic Defense Initiative which the press quickly renamed 'Star Wars'. It was meant to be the definitive solution in the protection of the United States at a time of tension and unease between the US and the USSR. However, after ten years of testing and billions of dollars of funding, the project was finally abandoned in favour of more conventional weaponry by President Clinton. After 25 years circling the Earth, dormant and cold. One of the 'Star Wars' satellites christened 'Alexis' is awoken, after a collision in our overcrowded orbit. She returns to her outdated task of defending the US against its cold war enemy. Knowledge of the satellite is quickly covered up by Senator Brasen, fearful it will affect his promotion to secratery in the new government. He hires mercenary Doug Weller to bring the satellite down. Amidst a web of lies, deceit between the government and military grows, as Doug's repeated attempts to destroy Alexis fail, and the measures taken rapidly escalate. His final solution, Resurrect the Space Shuttle Discovery, to use as a modern day trojan horse five years after her retirement. Discovery must intercept Alexis in orbit before the secret comes out and destroys the Senator's career and President Reagan's Legacy.

Imagine the coolest New Year's Eve party ever. Set on the luxury yacht Aeon, just east of Tonga on the International Date Line. Celebrate the New Year, cruise across the dateline with a hangover, then do the whole damn thing again. Mac's idea was perfect and winning the lottery made it all the better, until Aeon is dragged a year into the past, instantly changing the future. Now Mac and everyone aboard must live the entire year again, trying desperately to get their lives back on track. Friendships will be strained to breaking point and lives will be lost as Mac tries to return Aeon to the dateline, single minded in his attempt to recreate the circumstance of the previous year and get his old life back. Mac's future is just a memory.

This book reveals the historical context and the evolution of the technically complex Allied Signals Intelligence (Sigint) activity against Japan from 1920 to 1945.

This book reveals the historical context and the evolution of the technically complex Allied Signals Intelligence (Sigint) activity against Japan from 1920 to 1945. It traces the all-important genesis and development of the cryptanalytic techniques used to break the main Japanese Navy code (JN-25) and the Japanese Army’s Water Transport Code during WWII. This is the first book to describe, explain and analyze the code breaking techniques developed and used to provide this intelligence, thus closing the sole remaining gap in the published accounts of the Pacific War. The authors also explore the organization of cryptographic teams and issues of security, censorship, and leaks. Correcting gaps in previous research, this book illustrates how Sigint remained crucial to Allied planning throughout the war. It helped direct the advance to the Philippines from New Guinea, the sea battles and the submarine onslaught on merchant shipping. Written by well-known authorities on the history of cryptography and mathematics, Code Breaking in the Pacific is designed for cryptologists, mathematicians and researchers working in communications security. Advanced-level students interested in cryptology, the history of the Pacific War, mathematics or the history of computing will also find this book a valuable resource.
