Book The Queen s Wife

Download or read book The Queen s Wife written by Joanne Drayton and published by Penguin Random House New Zealand Limited. This book was released on 2023-01-31 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A memoir of a turbulent time — and a chess game that broke all the rules. In 1989, two married women met by chance. They instantly hit it off, but little did they know that their new relationship would turn their lives upside-down. This is the true story of that relationship, which threatened to cost them their children, families and friends and forced them to reassess their sexuality, identity and heritage. Along the way, one — an acclaimed biographer — was to explore the power of objects, while the other — a painter — was to follow her whakapapa back to the first Maori king, Te Wherowhero. Against the odds, the couple’s new life together became rich in laughter, travel, unusual encounters, investigations into Viking raids, the Kingitanga movement, the death of a New Zealand artist, chicken claws, ghosts, eccentrics and much more. A fascinating read on so many levels, this is an important view of our country from its very edge.

Book excerpt: Althonat Global, CEO, Dr. Martina Strömstedt Edgren hovers between life and death in hospital after a Dodger van slammed her Volvo into the icy sea. It may have been attempted murder, nearly identical to her parents’ fatal accident. She had unveiled a sinister plot by a rival company which had engineered a drug that compromised the immune system, as part of its covert “population reduction” plan. At the onset of the controversy, Martina staked her life to save humanity. As the earth spins out of control, the evil cabal tightens its grip on humanity, intimidating the population into submission to dangerous treatment. At every hour, there was a throbbing force that pervaded the universe with a feverish pace drifting here and there destroying lives, leaving the masses grasping for hope that Martina will recuperate and stand as a shield for humanity. If Martina dies, there will be no salvation for mankind. Humanity will cease to exist. Will Martina survive to save mankind? Find out in Traitors Unleashed. ‘Fast-paced and heart-pumping.’ ~ Eugene Libres. ‘The author injects mystery and suspense into a tale of feuding drug companies. The thriller turns pharmaceuticals into sheer entertainment, with the protagonist hounded by individuals who apparently want her dead. Laudable villains are unmistakably creepy like when Martina exposes a shocking (potential) traitor.’ ~ Kirkus reviews

Book Irrationality of Capitalism and Climate Change

Download or read book Irrationality of Capitalism and Climate Change written by Andrew Kolin and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-02-07 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The overwhelming scientific evidence indicates that planet Earth is in the process of undergoing dramatic climate change, which threatens to undermine the quality of life around the world. Irrationality of Capitalism and Climate Change demonstrates how the roots of humanity's assault on the environment are directly associated with the origins of capitalism, an irrational social system in which reproduction of capital on a global scale is destructive to the environment. The author begins with a philosophical analysis of the role that reason and passion assume in social systems., then traces the local and regional environmental effects of preindustrial social systems. The author argues that nations are faced with a global challenge, to construct life-affirming policy that functions as an alternative to the global devastation that the accumulation of capital causes. The book concludes by proposing rational socialism, a life-affirming social system that functions in harmony with the environment.

  • Author : Vandana Shiva
  • Publisher : Chelsea Green Publishing
  • Release : 2022-10-27
  • ISBN : 1645021882
  • Pages : 260 pages

Download or read book Terra Viva written by Vandana Shiva and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2022-10-27 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “All of us who care about the future of Planet Earth must be grateful to Vandana Shiva.”—Jane Goodall, UN Messenger of Peace A powerful new memoir published to coincide with Vandana Shiva’s 70th birthday. Vandana Shiva has been described in many ways: the “Gandhi of Grain,” “a rock star” in the battle against GMOs, and “the most powerful voice” for people of the developing world. For over four decades she has vociferously advocated for diversity, indigenous knowledge, localization, and real democracy; she has been at the forefront of seed saving, food sovereignty, and connecting the dots between the destruction of nature, the polarization of societies, and indiscriminate corporate greed. In Terra Viva, Dr. Shiva shares her most memorable campaigns, alongside some of the world’s most celebrated activists and environmentalists, all working toward a livable planet and healthier democracies. For the very first time, she also recounts the stories of her childhood in post-partition India—the influence of the Himalayan forests she roamed; her parents, who saw no difference in the education of boys and girls at a time when this was not the norm; and the Chipko movement, whose women were “the real custodians of biodiversity-related knowledge.” Throughout, Shiva’s pursuit of a unique intellectual path marrying quantum physics with science, technology, and environmental policy will captivate the reader. Terra Viva is a celebration of a remarkable life and a clear-eyed assessment of the challenges we face moving forward—including those revealed by the COVID crisis, the privatization of biotechnology, and the commodification of our biological and natural resources. “Vandana Shiva is an expert [on the dangers of globalization] whose analysis has helped us understand this situation much more deeply.”—Russell Brand “One of the world’s most prominent radical scientists.”—The Guardian

Book Some Like It Real  Poetry Unleashed

Download or read book Some Like It Real Poetry Unleashed written by Lee Roberts and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-05-20 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Take a purposeful step away from the safety of your front porch. Today is just another day of trying to navigate your way through the toilsome maze of your workaday world. Or is it? At any rate, here and there are scattered the mystical, magical portals, entryways into otherworldly realms consisting mainly of the offbeat and extraordinary. However, on the way to these amazingly funky worlds, you may want to take a detour onto leaf-strewn paths that will lead you to meditative strolls beside rippling streams then on to the high country grandeur of a sparkling alpine lake. Proceed from there to explore a silent and shadowy wood where a snapping twig at the twilight hour will give you goose bumps. Just don’t get too close to the precipice of no return and beware the inquisitive jaws of hungry night prowlers. Your overactive imagination getting to you? Playful references aside, it’s the vagaries of everyday life that can prove even more of a challenge, but nothing’s perfect, right? Thank goodness for life’s little twists and turns. How dreadfully boring it would be without them! Read on and step into a richly woven tapestry of the magical and mundane . . . the fabric of our worldly lives; set to the sometimes familiar, often times fantastic gyroscope of poetry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph addresses the complexity of China-Africa and Japan-Africa relations from a comparative perspective. The volume is divided into five sections. Section I focuses on the divergent perspectives that are reflected in the discourse on China-Africa relations. Section II discusses Japan’s economic modernization and its potential lessons for Africa. Section III compares the foreign policies of Japan and China in Africa and analyzes their supposed rivalries on the continent. Section IV explores the relationship between Southeast Asia and China and its relevance to Africa-China relations. Section V provides an in-depth case study of Ethiopia-China relations over the last century. The book fills a major gap in the existing literature on the triad of Africa, China, and Japan. Under the guidance of the disciplines of African studies, international relations, political sociology, and international political economy, this volume elucidates and examines the complexities of the foreign policies of the two Asian powers toward Africa as well as their economic, political, and cultural underpinnings.
