Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES, WALL STREET JOURNAL, AND BOSTON GLOBE BESTSELLER • One of the most acclaimed books of our time: an unforgettable memoir about a young woman who, kept out of school, leaves her survivalist family and goes on to earn a PhD from Cambridge University “Extraordinary . . . an act of courage and self-invention.”—The New York Times NAMED ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW • ONE OF PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA’S FAVORITE BOOKS OF THE YEAR • BILL GATES’S HOLIDAY READING LIST • FINALIST: National Book Critics Circle’s Award In Autobiography and John Leonard Prize For Best First Book • PEN/Jean Stein Book Award • Los Angeles Times Book Prize Born to survivalists in the mountains of Idaho, Tara Westover was seventeen the first time she set foot in a classroom. Her family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education, and no one to intervene when one of Tara’s older brothers became violent. When another brother got himself into college, Tara decided to try a new kind of life. Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge University. Only then would she wonder if she’d traveled too far, if there was still a way home. “Beautiful and propulsive . . . Despite the singularity of [Westover’s] childhood, the questions her book poses are universal: How much of ourselves should we give to those we love? And how much must we betray them to grow up?”—Vogue NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The Washington Post • O: The Oprah Magazine • Time • NPR • Good Morning America • San Francisco Chronicle • The Guardian • The Economist • Financial Times • Newsday • New York Post • theSkimm • Refinery29 • Bloomberg • Self • Real Simple • Town & Country • Bustle • Paste • Publishers Weekly • Library Journal • LibraryReads • Book Riot • Pamela Paul, KQED • New York Public Library
Book Synopsis Beyond the Ghetto Gates by : Michelle Cameron
Download or read book Beyond the Ghetto Gates written by Michelle Cameron and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-04-07 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When French troops occupy the Italian port city of Ancona, freeing the city’s Jews from their repressive ghetto, it unleashes a whirlwind of progressivism and brutal backlash as two very different cultures collide. Mirelle, a young Jewish maiden, must choose between her duty—an arranged marriage to a wealthy Jewish merchant—and her love for a dashing French Catholic soldier. Meanwhile, Francesca, a devout Catholic, must decide if she will honor her marriage vows to an abusive and murderous husband when he enmeshes their family in the theft of a miracle portrait of the Madonna. Set during the turbulent days of Napoleon Bonaparte’s Italian campaign (1796–97), Beyond the Ghetto Gates is both a cautionary tale for our present moment, with its rising tide of anti-Semitism, and a story of hope—a reminder of a time in history when men and women of conflicting faiths were able to reconcile their prejudices in the face of a rapidly changing world.

Book Synopsis Beyond the Gates of Hell by : Colin Rushton
Download or read book Beyond the Gates of Hell written by Colin Rushton and published by Pelican Publishing Company, Inc.. This book was released on 2011-10-31 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Possibly the longest Jewish survival account of the Holocaust. An inspirational story lingers behind tales of horror witnessed by thirteen-year-old Mayer Hersh in the labor camps of Nazi Germany. In what is possibly the longest recorded survival of its kind, Hersh would spend a total of 5 years and 2 months in 9 separate labor camps before his liberation in 1945. During this time, Hersh would lose 100 members of his immediate and extended family, witness countless inhumane acts, and live constantly on the brink of starvation. Yet, as author Colin Rushton marvels, "he tells his story without bitterness, without rancor, and without hatred because, in a wonderful way, and quite literally, his humanity has triumphed over all the evil he has witnessed and suffered." This tale of a boy's release from Hell ends with a confrontation of the past during his return to Auschwitz in 2002.

Book Synopsis Beyond the borders: The gates and fences of Neuroimmune interaction by : Javier Velázquez-Moctezuma
Download or read book Beyond the borders: The gates and fences of Neuroimmune interaction written by Javier Velázquez-Moctezuma and published by Frontiers E-books. This book was released on 2014-10-10 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neuroimmunology is a rapidly growing emerging field at which two old sciences have converged to integrate two different types of responses into a single coherent response involving the coordinated action of both systems, neural and immune. During long time it was thought that both systems worked separately and in divergent pathways. The brain was considered an immunoprivileged site and the immune organs were deemed as independent of any neural influence and also of nervous innervation. Time has gone and has proven that the borders between both systems were merely artificial. Since the beginning of Neuroimmunology in the 1980s much work has been done to elucidate the gates and fences in neuro-immune interactions. Brain was shown to be under the continuous surveillance of the immune system, even under basal physiological conditions in the absence of any pathology. Likely, it was found a profuse nervous innervation of lymphoid organs and even of single immune cells. Gates for direct neural immune communication were found both centrally and peripherally. Centrally, the gates, but also the fences, were situated at the brain barriers, the blood-brain barrier and the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier, and at the circunventricular organs. Peripherally, the fences constituted the apparent diverse nature of molecules involved in neural and immune signaling; however, time proved that both system were capable of producing the same signaling molecules and also systematically responded to the molecules released by the other system. Therefore, the gates were open for direct neural-immune communication at the peripheral level. This Research Topic aimed to include original reports, reviews and technical reports regarding the description of the gates and fences in neural immune interactions. We intended to provide an extensive view of the mechanisms governing central and peripheral neural-immune interactions, and the role of the borders, the blood-neural barriers, in the regulation of the neural-immune communication.

Book Synopsis Parmenides beyond the Gates by : Meijer
Download or read book Parmenides beyond the Gates written by Meijer and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the main problems in the the study of Parmenides’ poem is establishing the meaning of e‰nai, ‘to be’. Scholars often simply take it to mean: ‘to exist’, ‘to be the case’, ‘to be so’, or regard it as a copula. It’s better to start by fathoming what Parmenides himself has to say about to be and about Being. This cannot be done without recognizing the logical pattern in his poem. Another main problem is: what does not-Being mean? Is the so-called Doxa - as not-Being - a non-existing, hallucinatory world, an illusion, a fata morgana? Or is it only a detector of lies? In the present work the view will be advocated that the Doxa offers the description of a really existing world. A specific merit of this book is that all the problems involved will be examined in continuous debate with what scholars have offered as solutions so far.

Book Synopsis Guarding the Gates by : Riaan Engelbrecht
Download or read book Guarding the Gates written by Riaan Engelbrecht and published by Riaan Engelbrecht. This book was released on 2023-01-19 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a clear and intentional onslaught against the spiritual ‘gates’. This has been revealed by the Lord. This is not an attack for the ‘now’ but an attack that has always existed. This is an attack that is escalating, intensifying and becoming more vicious than ever before. It is an attack to lead people away from God, thus an attack of the destruction of the person. And we are talking here about the ‘gate’ – entry point – of nations, of cities, of homes, of families, and our very lives. A gate is a strategic point. It is a point of legally ‘controlling’ what goes in and goes out of the ‘city’. The enemy is laying siege to gain entry, for once he has entered through the ‘gate’, he comes to steal, to destroy and to kill. For the Lord has shown the enemy has come like an assassin, like a thief and as a destroyer.
Book Synopsis The Gates of Jerusalem by : Ernest Childs
Download or read book The Gates of Jerusalem written by Ernest Childs and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2007-08 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible is clear in its teaching that God's purpose in salvation is more than just the forgiveness of sins and a home in heaven at the end of this life. And yet the majority of God's people do not enjoy the blessings, joy, victory and fruitfulness which God intends for them to have in this life. The real need of the hour is for the people of God to realize the purpose for which God saved them and to begin to live in the reality of that purpose. This book was written with the prayer and desire that our blessed Lord will use it for His glory to enable His people to enjoy all that He has provided for them. Dr. Ernest Childs was saved at the age of 29. Soon after his conversion he went to work for his Lord, preaching and teaching the Word in young people's meetings, rescue missions and anywhere else he could get an audience. He has spent over twenty years in the pastorate, founding two churches and pastoring one other. During that time he has authored a number of books, booklets and tracts, established three home mission boards, carried on a weekly radio broadcast for ten years; founded a Christian school and an evening Bible Institute, and preached in most of the states east of the Mississippi in Bible Conferences and revivals. He has served at Ambassador Baptist College since its founding as Professor of Bible and Systematic Theology. In addition to his teaching duties, he also served as Academic Dean for eight years.

Book excerpt: Return to the statley environs of Rutherford Park and the embattled Cavendish family—from the author of The Wild Dark Flowers. The rain fell softly on the day that she was to be married…Sometimes the longing for the old untouched days at Rutherford would return to her; the innocence of it all, the feeling that England would never change… Charlotte Cavendish has been dreaming of her old home at Rutherford Park. It is April 1917; she is nineteen years old. And everywhere there is change. The war still rages on the Continent, where her brother fights for the Royal Flying Corps. Her parents’ marriage is in jeopardy, with her mother falling for a charming American in London. But not all is grim. Charlotte is marrying Preston, the blinded soldier whom she nursed back to health. Her parents couldn’t be happier about this. The young man hails from a well-established and wealthy family in Kent, and he’s solid and respectable. They hope he’s the one to tame their notoriously headstrong daughter. But as time passes, Charlotte slowly comes to the realization that she is not truly happy. And for a reason she is only just beginning to understand. A reason she dare not reveal to the family—or the world…
Book Synopsis The Gates of Hell by : Alfred Eugene Pearl
Download or read book The Gates of Hell written by Alfred Eugene Pearl and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2008-10 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible is an incredible gift from God. No false religion can "fake" prophecy. The unique thing about prophecy is that it's often difficult to understand until it has come to pass. Then it's clear. This little book is about the fulfillment of Satan's boast in Isaiah 14. He is just now putting the finishing touches on his stronghold as he attempts to "be like the most High". You've seen evil rising around us as we near the end of this age, but is your view 'as through a glass darkly' or is it 'face-to-face'? This book is not 'entertainment'. I won't be weaving an end-times fairy tale. If you are not ready to understand the true empire of evil the prophets foretold, or to be provisioned and equipped to join the assault on the very gates of Satan's fortress: may your chains rest lightly upon you . . .
