Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year “1968” marked the climax of protests that simultaneously captured most industrialized Western countries. The protesters challenged the institutions of Western democracies, confronting powerful, established parties and groups with an opposing force and public presence that negated traditional structures of institutional authority and criticized the basic assumptions of the post-war order. Exploring the effects the protest movement of 1968 had on the political, social, and symbolic order of the societies they called into question, this volume focuses on the consequences and echoes of 1968 from different perspectives, including history, sociology, and linguistics.

Book excerpt: Scriptural and Secular Parallels is the product of years of extensive and painstaking research. Within its pages are shocking yet convincing revelations that will compel readers to reconsider what has been established as truths about mankind's past, present and future on planet Earth. It reconciles the biblical account of Creation and the Theory of Evolution. It reconciles the question of the succession (evolution) of humans vs. the creation of the biblical Adam and Eve. It applies a timeline of historical events to those events described in the biblical book of Revelation. It provides geological evidence of the biblical flood. It further provides biblical and extra-biblical evidence that the Earth gods of antiquity were the biblical fallen angels-today's "extraterrestrials." It discusses how global warming, vanishing animal and plant species, and extreme weather are God's heralds of the end of time on Earth. It is reader-friendly, and all theories are supported by scientific data, historical facts, and Judeo-Christian and Muslim Scripture. It provides answers to the following age-old questions: "Where did we come from?" "Why are we here?" and "Where are we going?"

Book excerpt: ‘KUMBA AFRICA’, is a compilation of African Short Stories written as fiction by Sampson Ejike Odum, nostalgically taking our memory back several thousands of years ago in Africa, reminding us about our past heritage. It digs deep into the traditional life style of the Africans of old, their beliefs, their leadership, their courage, their culture, their wars, their defeat and their victories long before the emergence of the white man on the soil of Africa. As a talented writer of rich resource and superior creativity, armed with in-depth knowledge of different cultures and traditions in Africa, the Author throws light on the rich cultural heritage of the people of Africa when civilization was yet unknown to the people. The book reminds the readers that the Africans of old kept their pride and still enjoyed their own lives. They celebrated victories when wars were won, enjoyed their New yam festivals and villages engaged themselves in seasonal wrestling contest etc; Early morning during harmattan season, they gathered firewood and made fire inside their small huts to hit up their bodies from the chilling cold of the harmattan. That was the Africa of old we will always remember. In Africa today, the story have changed. The people now enjoy civilized cultures made possible by the influence of the white man through his scientific and technological process. Yet there are some uncivilized places in Africa whose people haven’t tested or felt the impact of civilization. These people still maintain their ancient traditions and culture. In everything, we believe that days when people paraded barefooted in Africa to the swarmp to tap palm wine and fetch firewood from there farms are almost fading away. The huts are now gradually been replaced with houses built of blocks and beautiful roofs. Thanks to modern civilization. Donkeys and camels are no longer used for carrying heavy loads for merchants. They are now been replaced by heavy trucks and lorries. African traditional methods of healing are now been substituted by hospitals. In all these, I will always love and remember Africa, the home of my birth and must respect her cultures and traditions as an AFRICAN AUTHOR.
