James Williams's account, the first book-length critical study of the poet since the 1980s, sets out to re-introduce Lear and to accord him his proper place: as a major Victorian figure of continuing appeal and relevance, and especially as a poet of beauty, comedy, and profound ingenuity.

Williams was a fascinating individual who, in this memoir, manages to cram more life into fewer pages than almost anyone, a habit of a travelling life that must have served him well

Against the unjust legacies of the traditional sublime, James Williams defends an anarchist sublime: multiple, self-destructive and temporary; opposed to any idea of highest value to be shared by all, but always imposed on the powerless.

This book is about prayer. I realize that as a child of God, we have the victory, but many of us are struggling with strongholds that have been passed down from generation to generation, and as a result those strongholds are keeping us from living victoriously in certain areas of our lives. This book, when the principles are applied will help us to Turn Our Defeat Into Victory, and the weapon that we are going to use is PRAYER.Once we realize that behind every situation that we face, there are spiritual powers and rulers of darkness at work, and before we can tear down the strongholds that the enemy has built, we must be able to recognize who he is. The Bible lets us know in Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places, and now that we know who the enemy is we can move our weapons into place, and that weapon is PRAYER.

Man's plight in this world of physical existence is due in part to his inability to recognize and understand the source, and purpose of all that exists in it. Spiritual laws are the driving force shaping and determining the character and nature of all things. A careful look into scripture helps us to understand that all that has been created, be it the simple microcosm of the atom, or the more complex macrocosm of the stars and planets hold a unique place in understanding ourselves. Even the character of man is governed by laws and principles originating beyond the natural self. LET THIS MIND BE IN YOU is a comprehensive biblical and scientific study into how behavior is governed by laws and natures, revealing insight into creation and the purpose for which all exists. All of creation has the unique ability to reveal the character and nature of its creator. "For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse" (Romans 1:20).

The Christmas Rebellion (1831-2) saw the uprising of 60,000 Jamaican slaves, many of them followers of one Baptist preacher. Initially intended only as a peaceful strike, it escalated as estates were burned down and plantation owners killed. This 1832 pamphlet details the violence and persecution directed against nonconformists and missionaries, who were regarded as having been sympathetic towards the revolt. The materials were published by William Knibb, a Baptist minister, who in 1832 was summoned to appear before parliamentary committees investigating the state of the Caribbean colonies. His evidence and the rebellion itself are regarded as having quickened the pace of emancipation in Jamaica. The documents are reissued here with an 1837 narrative by James Williams, a youth who became an apprentice under the system that replaced slavery. He describes how conditions for former slaves were little improved, with many instances of harsh treatment and unjust imprisonment.

Throughout his career, Deleuze developed a series of original philosophies of time and applied them successfully to many different fields. Now James Williams presents Deleuze's philosophy of time as the central concept that connects his philosophy as a whole. Through this conceptual approach, the book covers all the main periods of Deleuze's philosophy: the early studies of Hume, Nietzsche, Kant, Bergson and Spinoza, the two great philosophical works, Difference and Repetition and Logic of Sense, the Capitalism and Schizophrenia works with Guattari, and the late influential studies of literature, film and painting. The result is an important reading of Deleuze and the first full interpretation of his philosophy of time.
