This book is intended for those that are in a time of great tragedy and in need of hope to get them through those dark times. I also hope that this will help those that have a finite worldview to have an eternal worldview. One of the purposes of this book is to help people change their view of death and dying, for them to view death not as the end or as a dark and hopeless place but as just the next step of many that are yet to come in eternity. Out of this love that God has for humanity, God sends his angels to minister to mankind. The angels that he uses to minister to mankind are the supernatural creations of God, angels from heaven. This book is filled with nonfiction stories of the dying and how God in and for his glory sends angels to minister to those that are dying and, then once they are have died, carry the souls of those that have died into the presence of Jesus. Some, after having read just a portion of the book, say they had chills. Others have said that they cried and praised God for this book and only wished it had been published much sooner.

Over several years, Christian Suhr followed Muslim patients being treated for jinn possession and psychosis in a Danish mosque and in a psychiatric hospital. Through rich filmic and textual case studies, he shows how the bodies and souls of Muslim patients become a battlefield between the moral demands of Islam and the psychiatric institutions of European nation-states. The book reveals how both psychiatric and Islamic healing work to produce relief from pain, and also entail an ethical transformation of the patient and the cultivation of religious and secular values through the experience of pain. Creatively exploring the analytic possibilities provided by the use of a camera, both text and film show how disruptive ritual techniques are used in healing to destabilise individual perceptions and experiences of agency, which allows patients to submit to the invisible powers of psychotropic medicine or God.

Los Angeles's dramatic setting, Mediterranean climate, and outdoor lifestyle have long attracted creative individuals to its diverse neighborhoods. The thirty houses and gardens featured in City of Angels, designed by renowned architects, interior designers, and garden designers, offer a rich mix of quirkiness, elegance, glitz, and Hollywood pizazz. Expertly guided by author Jennifer Ash Rudick and photographer Firooz Zahedi, we visit Kelly Wearstler's beach house in Malibu, Hutton Wilkinson's exotic ranch in the Santa Monica Mountains, a midcentury modern Schindler house, a Pacific Palisades villa decorated by Oliver Furth, John Lautner's vertigo-inducing modernist glass box in the Hollywood Hills, and Richard Shapiro's overgrown gardens surrounding a magnificent Hispano-Moorish house in Holmby Hills.
