Book Three of The Kirk Rogers Series.After they make the long journey home from the Melkotian galaxy, Kirk and his friends find themselves trying to prevent a secret society from kicking them out of Atlantis. Thousands of years ago, militants who were against integrating with human society stole a spaceship called The Illuminati in the hopes that they could overthrow the Newtonian government. When things didn't go as planned, they landed the ship on Earth and put themselves in stasis until technology could catch up.Fast forward to present day and the Illuminati is a super-secret society with two primary goals: Take over the world and take back Atlantis.And Kirk would rather die than let that happen.If you like Star Trek and Star Wars, The Kirk Rogers Series celebrates all things scifi with some familiar themes while having a unique story of its own. Don't worry, even if you don't catch all the subtle hints or Easter Eggs, it doesn't take anything away from the story. I hope you enjoy the series as much as I do, and thanks for reading!

Raymond Shaw is keeping a deadly secret—even from himself.

Book Description
Numbers dominate global politics and, as a result, our everyday lives. Credit ratings steer financial markets and can make or break the future of entire nations. GDP drives our economies. Stock market indices flood our media and national debates. Statistical calculations define how we deal with climate change, poverty and sustainability. But what is behind these numbers? In How Numbers Rule the World, Lorenzo Fioramonti reveals the hidden agendas underpinning the use of statistics and those who control them. Most worryingly, he shows how numbers have been used as a means to reinforce the grip of markets on our social and political life, curtailing public participation and rational debate. An innovative and timely exposé of the politics, power and contestation of numbers.
