SynopsisIBM and the Holocaust is the award-winning, New York Times bestselling shocker--a million copies in print--detailing IBM's conscious co-planning and co-organizing of the Holocaust for the Nazis, micromanaged by its president Thomas J Watson from New York and Paris. Expanded Edition offers 37 pages of stunning photos, internal company memos, government memos and other archival materials to produce an even more explosive volume., Most of us have no idea where we're going most of the time. Perfect. "Celtic Christians had a name for the Holy Spirit- An Geadh-Glas, or 'the Wild Goose.' The name hints at mystery. Much like a wild goose, the Spirit of God cannot be tracked or tamed. An element of danger, an air of unpredictability surround Him. And while the name may sound a little sacrilegious, I cannot think of a better description of what it's like to follow the Spirit through life. I think the Celtic Christians were on to something.... Most of us will have no idea where we are going most of the time. And I know that is unsettling. But circumstantial uncertainty also goes by another name: Adventure." --from the introduction, Most of us have no idea where we're going most of the time. Perfect.
