Download or read book Madam Prime Minister written by Gro Harlem Brundtland and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2005-06-15 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the world's leading woman politicians tells her inspiring story At forty-one, Gro Harlem Brundtland, physician and mother of four, was appointed prime minister of Norway-the youngest person and the first woman ever to hold that office. In this refreshingly forthright memoir, Brundtland traces her unusual and meteoric career. She grew up with strong role models-her parents were active in the Norwegian resistance and involved in postwar politics. She became known as a pro-choice crusader in the seventies and entered politics as the minister of the environment. She appointed eight women to her second eighteen-member cabinet, to this day a world record, and was the leading figure in the process that led to the Earth Summit in Rio in 1992. As director-general of the World Health Organization since 1997, Brundtland is the first woman elected to run a major UN institution. Along the way, she met a host of international politicians, including Margaret Thatcher-who did not share Brundtland's view on feminism-Mikhail Gorbachev, Nelson Mandela, Ronald Reagan, and Hillary Clinton. Brundtland writes candidly and with humor about raising children in the political limelight and about dealing with political opposition and stereotypes about women. Hers is a fascinating story of one person's ability to make a difference-globally.

Download or read book Fountain of Love written by Leon Collier and published by America Star Books. This book was released on 2007-06-18 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leon has counseled many young people regarding relationships and discovered that a vast majority of them are really looking for true love, but cannot find that special someone. It is out of this context that this book was given birth. Life is full of twists and turns, but with a stroke of spiritual luck, love comes knocking at the door when one least expects it. Fountain of Love perfectly depicts this idea. It is a story about two college students from different worlds whose paths cross, and it was love at first sight. It is replete with life situations that reflect sacrifice, true love, humility, disappointment, and endurance. What grabs the attention of the reader in the beginning of the story is the clash between the Ivy League school and a historically black college. The main character transferred from Harvard University to Jackson State University because he was certain that the young lady he met there is the woman God chose just for him. Their paths crossed at a water fountain, and their lives were never the same.
