She was later caught by a coalition allied with the English; the ensuing story of her trial and eventual execution at the stake is one of the most distressing episodes of history, with lies and manipulation forcing a political agenda against all evidence.

I "Den Hemmelige Fodboldspiller 2? kommer vi atter bag kulisserne i Premier League. Den anonyme fodboldspiller har nemlig endnu engang besluttet at tage bladet fra munden og fortaelle opsigtsvaekkende afsløringer om karrieren som professionel fodboldspiller. Forskellen på "Den Hemmelige Fodboldspiller 2" og dens forgaenger, er, at den ukendte forfatter nu også bringer sine holdkammerater og kollegaer på banen, og lader dem fortaelle deres historier fra det professionelle fodboldmiljø i England. Noget de to bøger dog har tilfaelles er, at alt efter sigende skulle vaere ganske sandt - hvilket bestemt ikke gør historierne om slåskampe, piger, penge og personlige nedture mindre tankevaekkende eller interessante.

Upanishads are mankind's oldest works of philosophy, predating the earliest Greek philosophy. They are the concluding part of the Vedas, the ancient Indian sacred literature, and mark the culmination of a tradition of speculative thought first expressed in the Rig-Veda more than 4,000 years ago. Remarkable for their meditative depth, spirit of doubt and intellectual honesty, the Upanishads are concerned with the knowledge of the Brahman, the Ultimate Reality, and man's relationship with it.
