Book Synopsis We'll Never Tell Them by : Fiorella De Maria
Download or read book We'll Never Tell Them written by Fiorella De Maria and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2015-05-28 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kristjana, a nurse in England, flees twenty-first-century London in order to avoid a decision about her future. While attending a dying man in a Jerusalem hospital, she escapes into another woman’s past and discovers there the courage to embrace her own destiny. Through his vivid storytelling, Kristjana’s cancer patient, Leo Hampton, recounts his mother’s life—her upbringing in colonial Malta, her education in Edwardian England, and her service as a volunteer nurse during World War I. Captivated by the story of Liljana Hampton, Kristjana is pulled into the agonies and the ecstasies of a previous generation, which almost seem more real to her than those of her own life. Through her vicarious experience of another woman’s personal history, Kristjana discovers the secret of fearlessly embracing her future. With her passionate and colorful prose, award-winning author Fiorella De Maria seamlessly weaves back and forth between the past and the future. She realistically brings to life the cobbled streets of Old World Malta, the halls of an English boarding school, and the trenches of the Great War as she explores the age-old quest for some sense of security in a dangerous and uncertain world.

Download or read book Shell Tones written by William Bailey and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2005-10-06 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps because of being a math teacher with an avid interest in cosmology, the author has acquired an expectancy of alternatives such as "if not real, then imaginary" all the way to "if not matter, then antimatter." This has led to the "what if factor" demonstrated in his novel. "What if" (to the first power) a man can hear sounds emanating from paintings in a museum? To what end, you might ask: perhaps a hobby of cataloging masterpieces based on tones from one to four? But "what if" (squared), in the presence of a foreign object the original painting becomes silent, as silent as a movie poster or even a reproduction. What did the painting have that the poster didn't have? What, then, did it lose? Is this cause for alarm? In Shell Tones, it is!

Like the best storytellers, Doerr explores the human condition in all its manifestations: metamorphosis, grief, fractured relationships, and slowly mending hearts. Most dazzling is Doerr's gift for conjuring nature in both its beautiful abundance and crushing power. Some of his characters contend with tremendous hardship; some discover unique gifts; all are united by their ultimate deference to the mysteries of their respective landscapes.

Book Synopsis Life in a Shell by : Donald C. Jackson
Download or read book Life in a Shell written by Donald C. Jackson and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2013-03-04 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trundling along in essentially the same form for some 220 million years, turtles have seen dinosaurs come and go, mammals emerge, and humankind expand its dominion. Is it any wonder the persistent reptile bested the hare? In this engaging book physiologist Donald Jackson shares a lifetime of observation of this curious creature, allowing us a look under the shell of an animal at once so familiar and so strange. Here we discover how the turtle’s proverbial slowness helps it survive a long, cold winter under ice. How the shell not only serves as a protective home but also influences such essential functions as buoyancy control, breathing, and surviving remarkably long periods without oxygen, and how many other physiological features help define this unique animal. Jackson offers insight into what exactly it’s like to live inside a shell—to carry the heavy carapace on land and in water, to breathe without an expandable ribcage, to have sex with all that body armor intervening. Along the way we also learn something about the process of scientific discovery—how the answer to one question leads to new questions, how a chance observation can change the direction of study, and above all how new research always builds on the previous work of others. A clear and informative exposition of physiological concepts using the turtle as a model organism, the book is as interesting for what it tells us about scientific investigation as it is for its deep and detailed understanding of how the enduring turtle “works.”
Book Synopsis When Communities Confront Corporations by : Austin Onuoha
Download or read book When Communities Confront Corporations written by Austin Onuoha and published by Adonis & Abbey Publishers Ltd. This book was released on 2008-06-20 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In April of 2005 Shell sought an injunction in a Dublin court against residents of Erris in northwestern Republic of Ireland who were obstructing the laying of pipelines across their lands. On June 29, 2005 the court convicted and jailed five people for failing to comply with the order of the High Court restraining them from interfering with Shell's project. When Communities Confront Corporations examines the issues and events that led to the incarceration of the Rossport Five and how it resonates with events in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. It argues that conflicts between communities and corporations, though pervasive, do not appear to receive adequate scholarly attention. The book compares the altercations between Shell and the Erris communities in Ireland and the responses to these conflicts, with similar conflicts generated in the Niger Delta area of Nigeria by the presence of the oil giant. It challenges the so-called conspiracy theory, which is often associated with the oil company's operations in the Niger Delta and argues that the key difference between the two sets of conflicts and responses to them is the context.

With a husband, three kids, a dog, and a job, when do you think I have the time?" Other times, I hear, "I don't know how to pray" or "I don't know what to say" or "What's the proper way to pray?" These are comments that I hear on a regular basis, in addition to "Pray for me. God seems to hear you." This book is actually two books in one. The Stoplight: How God's is Operating in Your Life gives you insight, using the stoplight (traffic light) as a guide, on how God has been working in your life all your life, even though you didn't realize it. There will be times while you are reading this book that you may see a situation that you could have written yourself or written about someone you know. You will see how He has lifted us up, carried us, let us make our mistakes, and then help us correct them. It also shows you how others in the Bible had flaws just like we do. Most painfully, it shows the sacrifice that God made for us by giving up His Son, our brother, so that we may have eternal life. Stoplight prayers will show you when you have time to pray, how to pray, and what to say when you pray. You will be amazed at how many opportunities you will have to pray during your busy day. Little tips and insights will enhance your prayer life and lead you on a journey of establishing a better relationship with God. Trust me, you will never be able to look at a stoplight the same way again!
