A story of what all young gamblers dream of and few will experience, and perhaps, survive. Frankie Santos started gambling at the age of 10 years by pitching pennies and shooting marbles for money with the older kids in the neighborhood. He learned the games of poker and horse racing at the age of 11 years. At 12 he shared his new devotion with his fellow classmates by getting them involved in poker games on the school grounds. In high school, he continued to live in the envioronment of trying to make a fast buck playing the horses. As a young man in his 20s, he enters into a journey of big money, greed, drugs, and becoming the target of the Mexican Mafia. He is on the run and in hiding, and discovers another hard fast-paced journey. By nature, he is a compassionate man, and a protector of family and friends that maybe in harms way. From the age of innocence to manhood and the commencement of rise to power, Frankie Santos did not know what was in his destiny.

Book Synopsis Coherence and Verification in Ethics by : Ralph D. Ellis
Download or read book Coherence and Verification in Ethics written by Ralph D. Ellis and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 1992 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an attempt to come to grips with the problem of the epistemological basis of ethical beliefs by building on criticisms of approaches to this problem which have been attempted in the recent past. Because of the extensive discussions and criticism of these various alternatives, the book may be useful to all who are concerned with the epistemology of ethics. Included are criticisms of the prescriptivist and emotivist alternatives growing out of the logical positivist tradition; various forms of intuitionism; the now popular coherentist approach; the rationalism of Gewirth and other is-ought derivations; and phenomenology (including its intuitionistic manifestations, as in Hartmna, and its anthropologist ones as in Scheler). Although each of these schools is found insufficient to accomplish the task alone, certain elements in each of them are necessary components of a workable moral epistemology.
Book Synopsis A Hologram for the King by : Dave Eggers
Download or read book A Hologram for the King written by Dave Eggers and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2013-06-04 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A National Book Award Finalist, a New York Times bestseller and one of the most highly-acclaimed books of the year, A Hologram for the King is a sprawling novel about the decline of American industry from one of the most important, socially-aware novelists of our time. In a rising Saudi Arabian city, far from weary, recession-scarred America, a struggling businessman named Alan Clay pursues a last-ditch attempt to stave off foreclosure, pay his daughter's college tuition, and finally do something great. In A Hologram for the King, Dave Eggers takes us around the world to show how one man fights to hold himself and his splintering family together in the face of the global economy's gale-force winds. This taut, richly layered, and elegiac novel is a powerful evocation of our contemporary moment--and a moving story of how we got here.
Download or read book The Modern Day King written by Robert Erb and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-07-20 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does God expect from us as a believer in Him? Was there a blueprint that He laid out for us to follow? The answer is yes. And not just with the Ten Commandments or in Jesus's teachings. God gives an illustration when He first laid out the expectations for His people's designated ruler in Deuteronomy 17. Following these directions would allow the king to rule with wisdom and with faith. But looking at this guide in the Old Testament gives us a set of advisements that we can follow. The Modern-Day King is a detailed comparison of God's instructions to Israel's kings and how they are also instructions to modern day believers

Book Synopsis The Social Life of Money by : Nigel Dodd
Download or read book The Social Life of Money written by Nigel Dodd and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2016-02-09 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A reevaluation of what money is—and what it might be Questions about the nature of money have gained a new urgency in the aftermath of the global financial crisis. Even as many people have less of it, there are more forms and systems of money, from local currencies and social lending to mobile money and Bitcoin. Yet our understanding of what money is—and what it might be—hasn't kept pace. In The Social Life of Money, Nigel Dodd, one of today’s leading sociologists of money, reformulates the theory of the subject for a postcrisis world in which new kinds of money are proliferating. What counts as legitimate action by central banks that issue currency and set policy? What underpins the right of nongovernmental actors to create new currencies? And how might new forms of money surpass or subvert government-sanctioned currencies? To answer such questions, The Social Life of Money takes a fresh and wide-ranging look at modern theories of money. One of the book’s central concerns is how money can be wrested from the domination and mismanagement of banks and governments and restored to its fundamental position as the "claim upon society" described by Georg Simmel. But rather than advancing yet another critique of the state-based monetary system, The Social Life of Money draws out the utopian aspects of money and the ways in which its transformation could in turn transform society, politics, and economics. The book also identifies the contributions of thinkers who have not previously been thought of as monetary theorists—including Nietzsche, Benjamin, Bataille, Deleuze and Guattari, Baudrillard, Derrida, and Hardt and Negri. The result provides new ways of thinking about money that seek not only to understand it but to change it. Complete with a new preface that discusses recent developments in the evolution of money, the book draws out the ways in which its transformation could in turn radically alter society, politics, and economics.

Book Synopsis Journeys in Holy Lands by : Reuven Firestone
Download or read book Journeys in Holy Lands written by Reuven Firestone and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars have long pointed to the great affinity between stories found in the Bible and the Qur'an, yet no explanation has been proposed that satisfactorily explains the odd combination of incredible likeness and unique divergence. Firestone provides a refreshing, new approach to scriptural issues of textuality, exegesis, and the origins and use of legend. This book clearly presents the full range of Islamic legends from the Qur'an and early Islamic exegesis about Abraham's journeys and adventures in the Land of Canaan and Arabia, many of them available for the first time in English translation. The author examines this broad sample of Islamic legends in relation to those found in Jewish, Christian, and pre-Islamic Arabian communities, and postulates an evolutionary journey of the literature. He presents a thorough textual analysis of the material and proposes a model for understanding early Islamic narrative based in literary theory, approaches to comparative religion, and the history of the pre-Islamic and early Islamic Middle East.

Download or read book Salome written by Oscar Wilde and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the prophet Jokanaan is brought to the attention of the princess Salomé, he rebukes her interest, which causes her to make a brutal declaration.Oscar Wilde’s one-act tragedy explores the repercussions of her horrifying decision. Originally composed in French in 1892, Salomé is a controversial tale full of cruelty and retribution. Wilde expands on the Biblical story of John the Baptist, whom was captured and beheaded by Herod Antipas. It explores the interaction between the characters showing Salomé’s spiteful nature and Herod’s growing concern. It’s a bold adaptation of a somber tale that leaves a mark on all who read it. Salomé’s one-act story structure immediately dives into the strange dynamic amongst Herod and his family. Once Salomé’s bloodlust is apparent Herod’s forced to reconcile both of their futures. It’s a haunting drama that’s amplified by its Biblical setting and notable characters. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Salomé is both modern and readable.
