These mystery clocks are fascinating mechanisms.

What is time? Is it merely a convenient way of measuring the movement of celestial bodies, or is it something much more? Why is it important to go beyond the daily clock and calendar? Are the secrets to life hidden within the mystery of time? This book seeks to answer these questions and many more. The first part explains, through basic science, that we are much more than we have been led to believe. Within us is the key to Creation. We are masters of time and space, but we have forgotten this. Our intention in these pages is to help you remember your magnificence. In the second part of the book, we offer practical applications of the ideas presented herein. A powerful new therapy is introduced that has already helped transform thousands of lives. Are you ready to go beyond traditional healing and therapy? Can you gain the courage to look at the deepest layers of the subconscious mind? Perhaps you can experience, in a few sessions, more healing than in years of psychotherapy. If you are receptive to the possibilities above, then open this book and begin the journey into a wonderful new awareness of self that goes beyond anything the world has to offer. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. — revised from the Hopi Elders

A classic of American noir, part murder mystery and part black comedy, set in dark corners of corporate New York City. George Stroud is a hard-drinking, tough-talking, none-too-scrupulous writer for a New York media conglomerate that bears a striking resemblance to Time, Inc. in the heyday of Henry Luce. One day, before heading home to his wife in the suburbs, Stroud has a drink with Pauline, the beautiful girlfriend of his boss, Earl Janoth. Things happen. The next day Stroud escorts Pauline home, leaving her off at the corner just as Janoth returns from a trip. The day after that, Pauline is found murdered in her apartment. Janoth knows there was one witness to his entry into Pauline’s apartment on the night of the murder; he knows that man must have been the man Pauline was with before he got back; but he doesn’t know who he was. Janoth badly wants to get his hands on that man, and he picks one of his most trusted employees to track him down: George Stroud, who else? How does a man escape from himself? No book has ever dramatized that question to more perfect effect than The Big Clock, a masterpiece of American noir.
