Non-fictional books by Dr. Aquino generally fall into three categories: historical, practical, and initiatory.

Historical works include The Neutron Bomb (a study of the domestic and foreign politics surrounding the proposed NATO introduction of that weapon in 1977-8) and Extreme Prejudice (a documentary exposé of the 1986-7 "Satanic ritual abuse" scam at the Presidio of San Francisco.

Two other [2-volume] books - The Church of Satan and The Temple of Set - are not only histories but initiatory analyses as well, examining the philosophical and metaphysical concepts which define and energize those religious institutions.

As one of the U.S. Army's extremely rare Political-Military Affairs Officers [with credentials in Strategic & Space Intelligence, Psychological Operations, Special Forces, Civil Affairs, Defense Attaché, and Foreign Area Officer], Dr. Aquino has also researched and written a second category of books for general readers, his "MindWar" trilogy. The first, MindWar, proposes an end to conventional war by eliminating the impulse to it in the human subconscious. The second, MindStar, addresses the mystery of the human "soul". Finally FindFar tales analysis & planning skills from the 3rd into the 4th & 5th dimensions.

Unsurprisingly Dr. Aquino's fictional ventures - Ode to Esmé, We Break the Sword, FireForce, and Morlindalë ("authored" by The One Ring) - all draw upon extensive political and philosophical principles in their telling. FireForce, Esmé, and Morlindalë utilize the literary technique of parody in a serious, rather than humorous exploration and extrapolation of the original source.

Additionally Dr. Aquino has recovered and Edited a collection of childhood poems by his mother, Betty Ford: Pegasus in Pinfeathers.

All of these books are available on Amazon in both printed paperback and Kindle ebook editions.
