Book excerpt: Ika Ivory's life changed forever one fateful night when a catlike beast entered his home and took the life of his elder sister. He was a child at the time, and he grew up believing this incident was nothing more than a happenstantial tragedy; that he was simply unlucky enough to have his home be the target of a wild creature's thoughtless carnage. Ika learned as he grew older, however, that this creature was more than he once thought. The creature's true form was not a demonic cat, as he encountered it as, but a man. A man known as Kirga. News of this 'Kirga' was beginning to spread across Wenworld. There was rarely a newspaper without his name in the headline. Ika began to obsess over the man who took his sister from him. He began to think of revenge. His unbearable need for it solidified when, on the night of Ika's twelfth birthday, his mother made the decision to tell him the truth about why he didn't grow up with a father like the other kids. He found out his mother had seen the creature who took his sister once before. It was the only other time the beast had been seen in their small hometown; and it was the night when it killed Ika's father, before Ika was born. The sister was, in fact, the second act of merciless violence against the Ivory family. After being told this secret, Ika swore that he would find Kirga one day and discover the truth of why his family specifically was targeted in these attacks. There had to be a reason. Ika's sanity and happiness were held together through his youth by his best friend, Chandi MorrowHill, who he met shortly after the tragedy of his sister's death. He became close with Chandi when he discovered she was also the victim of a traumatic experience. Chandi's parents were taken from her by a man named Wriliara. The two of them grew close as the years went by, helping one another deal with the pain of their experiences. In time they created an unbreakable bond. One was never seen without the other. Eventually, the day came when a certain piece of information in the local newspaper set a determined fire in their grieving hearts. It was being reported that Kirga--who was now going by 'Kirga the Hellcat'--was seen travelling with Wriliara, the same man who killed Chandi's parents. Ika and Chandi made a vow that, together, when they were older and stronger, they would seek the men out to avenge their families. Now, finally, the two of them have grown to an age where they feel they are ready to begin their great hunt. However, if they wish to be strong enough to fight these men when the time arrives, then they will need someone to train them in the complex ways of Wenworld magic. This is where their master comes in: a talking rabbit with an attitude and a penchant for strict discipline. He happens to have more than enough experience with magic to train them efficiently. He agrees to see their quest through to the end, assisting the two teenagers in whatever way he can. The world outside the confines of Ika and Chandi's small town is far larger and more bizarre than they ever could've imagined. They have a lot to learn; about the world, and themselves.

In spite of the many warnings from their Wenny Rabbit master, Cinnamon, they went ahead and bit off more than they could chew when they came face to face with the barbarous Vedara. After losing the fight with him, Ika and Chandi realized they needed to focus much more time on training. After following the strict regimen of Master Cinnamon for two years, they're ready to get back into the game. Kirga and his favourite Apostle, Wriliara, are still out there. Their shared vengeance is not yet complete. Kirga the Hellcat is after the famous Zyphur Spear. But in order to get it, he's going to have to steal it from the flying city of Porshalla. An epic heist is approaching, and Ika and Chandi will have to dive head-first into the madness to stop Kirga from getting what he wants. If he manages to steal the Spear, any hope of revenge on him or his Apostle will be out of their hands.

Download or read book Making Of An Economic Superpower The Unlocking China s Secret Of Rapid Industrialization written by Yi Wen and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise of China is no doubt one of the most important events in world economic history since the Industrial Revolution. Mainstream economics, especially the institutional theory of economic development based on a dichotomy of extractive vs. inclusive political institutions, is highly inadequate in explaining China's rise. This book argues that only a radical reinterpretation of the history of the Industrial Revolution and the rise of the West (as incorrectly portrayed by the institutional theory) can fully explain China's growth miracle and why the determined rise of China is unstoppable despite its current 'backward' financial system and political institutions. Conversely, China's spectacular and rapid transformation from an impoverished agrarian society to a formidable industrial superpower sheds considerable light on the fundamental shortcomings of the institutional theory and mainstream 'blackboard' economic models, and provides more-accurate reevaluations of historical episodes such as Africa's enduring poverty trap despite radical political and economic reforms, Latin America's lost decades and frequent debt crises, 19th century Europe's great escape from the Malthusian trap, and the Industrial Revolution itself.

Download or read book When Animals Dream written by David M. Peña-Guzmán and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2023-09-26 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A spellbinding look at the philosophical and moral implications of animal dreaming Are humans the only dreamers on Earth? What goes on in the minds of animals when they sleep? When Animals Dream brings together behavioral and neuroscientific research on animal sleep with philosophical theories of dreaming. It shows that dreams provide an invaluable window into the cognitive and emotional lives of nonhuman animals, giving us access to a seemingly inaccessible realm of animal experience. David Peña-Guzmán uncovers evidence of animal dreaming throughout the scientific literature, suggesting that many animals run “reality simulations” while asleep, with a dream-ego moving through a dynamic and coherent dreamscape. He builds a convincing case for animals as conscious beings and examines the thorny scientific, philosophical, and ethical questions it raises. Once we accept that animals dream, we incur a host of moral obligations and have no choice but to rethink our views about who animals are and the interior lives they lead. A mesmerizing journey into the otherworldly domain of nonhuman consciousness, When Animals Dream carries profound implications for contemporary debates about animal cognition, animal ethics, and animal rights, challenging us to regard animals as beings who matter, and for whom things matter.
