Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Netflix’s series adaptation of One Hundred Years of Solitude premieres December 11, 2024! One of the twentieth century’s enduring works, One Hundred Years of Solitude is a widely beloved and acclaimed novel known throughout the world and the ultimate achievement in a Nobel Prize–winning career. The novel tells the story of the rise and fall of the mythical town of Macondo through the history of the Buendía family. Rich and brilliant, it is a chronicle of life, death, and the tragicomedy of humankind. In the beautiful, ridiculous, and tawdry story of the Buendía family, one sees all of humanity, just as in the history, myths, growth, and decay of Macondo, one sees all of Latin America. Love and lust, war and revolution, riches and poverty, youth and senility, the variety of life, the endlessness of death, the search for peace and truth—these universal themes dominate the novel. Alternately reverential and comical, One Hundred Years of Solitude weaves the political, personal, and spiritual to bring a new consciousness to storytelling. Translated into dozens of languages, this stunning work is no less than an account of the history of the human race.

Book excerpt: In a near future. FBI special agent Jai Young is on the trail of a terrorist group targeting biotech interests. The closer he gets, the more and more it doesn't look anything like a straightforward counterterrorism investigation. It's not just that one of the perpetrators is a deadly female assassin with telepathic abilities and a lioness tail. In a well hidden world known only to a select few, how many others are there of her kind? And if genetically engineered humans really do exist, why create them? And why are several of them now on a killing spree?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Just because you were ordinary there doesn't mean you have to be anything less than extraordinary here." That's the advice orphan Amira DeLante was given when she found herself caught accidentally in an alternate realm. Still unable to swallow her new reality, she found herself beginning to question her past, present, and future. From a geeky childhood to a lonely adulthood, all the 18-year-old teenager knew was to keep her head down and complete her education, come what may. After accidentally transporting herself to the Imperium Realm on the night of a solar eclipse, she was expected to keep the origin of her arrival a secret because it would bring up too many questions to which nobody had answers. Still unable to swallow her new reality, she attempted to blend in with the swarm of elemental students at the Arcadia Academy of Advanced Arts. But, the more she tried to go unnoticed, the more the spotlight continued falling on her. Everything seemed like happiness and sunshine on the outside, but she never expected that buried underneath all that goodwill were rotten secrets which would cause a catastrophe. And when past betrayals come to seek revenge on the injustice done to them, it's the younger generation who has to pay. She finds herself caught in the deep end of a web of lies she wove, the deception of politics, a royal scheme, unexplainable disasters, and more magic than she could handle. The possibility of true peace seems impossible, but along with new friends and acquaintances, a strong effort to thwart pain could definitely be made. The life she knew, completely upended, Amira DeLante steps into shoes too large for her to bring glory to.

Download or read book Equality of Opportunity written by David Davenport and published by Hoover Press. This book was released on 2023-06-01 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over one hundred years, Americans have debated what equality of opportunity means and the role of government in ensuring it. Are we born with equality of opportunity, and must we thus preserve our innate legal and political freedoms? Or must it be created through laws and policies that smooth out social or economic inequalities? David Davenport and Gordon Lloyd trace the debate as it has evolved from America's founding into the twentieth century, when the question took on greater prominence. The authors use original sources and historical reinterpretations to revisit three great debates and their implications for the discussions today. First, they imagine the Founders, especially James Madison, arguing the case against the Progressives, particularly Woodrow Wilson. Next are two conspicuous public dialogues: Herbert Hoover and Franklin Delano Roosevelt's debate around the latter's New Deal; and Ronald Reagan's response to Lyndon B. Johnson's Great Society and War on Poverty. The conservative-progressive divide in this discussion has persisted, setting the stage for understanding the differing views about equality of opportunity today. The historical debates offer illuminating background for the question: Where do we go from here?

Download or read book Divergent Social Worlds written by Ruth D. Peterson and published by Russell Sage Foundation. This book was released on 2010-07-07 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than half a century after the first Jim Crow laws were dismantled, the majority of urban neighborhoods in the United States remain segregated by race. The degree of social and economic advantage or disadvantage that each community experiences—particularly its crime rate—is most often a reflection of which group is in the majority. As Ruth Peterson and Lauren Krivo note in Divergent Social Worlds, "Race, place, and crime are still inextricably linked in the minds of the public." This book broadens the scope of single-city, black/white studies by using national data to compare local crime patterns in five racially distinct types of neighborhoods. Peterson and Krivo meticulously demonstrate how residential segregation creates and maintains inequality in neighborhood crime rates. Based on the authors' groundbreaking National Neighborhood Crime Study (NNCS), Divergent Social Worlds provides a more complete picture of the social conditions underlying neighborhood crime patterns than has ever before been drawn. The study includes economic, social, and local investment data for nearly nine thousand neighborhoods in eighty-seven cities, and the findings reveal a pattern across neighborhoods of racialized separation among unequal groups. Residential segregation reproduces existing privilege or disadvantage in neighborhoods—such as adequate or inadequate schools, political representation, and local business—increasing the potential for crime and instability in impoverished non-white areas yet providing few opportunities for residents to improve conditions or leave. And the numbers bear this out. Among urban residents, more than two-thirds of all whites, half of all African Americans, and one-third of Latinos live in segregated local neighborhoods. More than 90 percent of white neighborhoods have low poverty, but this is only true for one quarter of black, Latino, and minority areas. Of the five types of neighborhoods studied, African American communities experience violent crime on average at a rate five times that of their white counterparts, with violence rates for Latino, minority, and integrated neighborhoods falling between the two extremes. Divergent Social Worlds lays to rest the popular misconception that persistently high crime rates in impoverished, non-white neighborhoods are merely the result of individual pathologies or, worse, inherent group criminality. Yet Peterson and Krivo also show that the reality of crime inequality in urban neighborhoods is no less alarming. Separate, the book emphasizes, is inherently unequal. Divergent Social Worlds lays the groundwork for closing the gap—and for next steps among organizers, policymakers, and future researchers.

Book excerpt: Dose of Insanity is a sweeping thriller about a promising new drug that goes horribly wrong when greed and denial trump scientific judgment. An exciting new discovery finds its way into the hands of giant Apex Pharmaceuticals following the death of a young scientist. Despite the many red flags, Apex's tyrannical CEO Maxwell Hall sees only the multibillion dollar potential of the product and rushes it into development. Once Medulin is announced to the world, only a small Connecticut biotechnology company called Genplex is successful at discovering a viable alternative. Genplex and its young research director, Jerrod Wesley, become locked in a battle of David-and-Goliath proportions as they struggle to reach the market first. But more is at stake than market share. Medulin causes patients to become violently insane, and Maxwell Hall leaves a trail of corruption and murder as he covers his tracks. When Jerrod's daughter, Courtney, is touched by the effects of Medulin, she seeks her own revenge. The conclusion is dramatic, terrifying, and satisfying. About the Author Davis L. Temple, Jr. is an established scientist and scientific writer. He is also the author of three previous novels, Two Letters Then Booger Den (for which he received the Mississippi Author of the Year Award in 2004), Preacherman, and Voodoo Storm.
