Book Synopsis In Defence of Jesus the Christ by : G. C. Ezeigwe
Download or read book In Defence of Jesus the Christ written by G. C. Ezeigwe and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2021-09-23 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book of mine diligently but strictly challenges another book that viciously insults God, Jesus Christ and Christianity in various matters. Some of the matters: - God does not exist – Jesus was a fiction, he was no son of God, he was a trickster, a criminal. He depended upon the power of witchcraft for his miracles. His teaching is responsible for the backwardness of African countries. If his death washes away our sins. Judas Iscariot and the Jews are to be praised not blamed. He escaped crucifixion (someone else died in is place) and elope with Mary Magdalene to Europe and married her. The insult goes on. In addition to challenging the book, my book reveals the history of Jesus early life, unaccounted for in the popular Christian Bible, explains the difference between the status of Jesus and the status of Christ. Looks into the real meaning of “forbidden fruit” the Holy Trinity, the virgin birth, reincarnation, good Friday, compares Christianity (from emperor Constantine era to our present time) to paganism, considers who took over from Peter, the apostle of Jesus, and give the true meaning of Sabbath. Finally, my book outlines the legacies of Jesus Christ to the world. To Christian my book is a buttress. To non-Christians, it is an enticing invitation to come to Christian fold and taste and see that God is good.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NAMED ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY DWIGHT GARNER, THE NEW YORK TIMES • NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY San Francisco Chronicle | NPR | The Root | The Telegraph | The Globe and Mail NATIONAL BESTSELLER • FINALIST, PHILLIS WHEATLEY BOOK AWARD • TEJU COLE WAS NAMED ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL AFRICANS OF THE YEAR BY NEW AFRICAN MAGAZINE For readers of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and Michael Ondaatje, Every Day Is for the Thief is a wholly original work of fiction by Teju Cole, whose critically acclaimed debut, Open City, was the winner of the PEN/Hemingway Award and a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award, and was named one of the best books of the year by more than twenty publications. Fifteen years is a long time to be away from home. It feels longer still because I left under a cloud. A young Nigerian living in New York City goes home to Lagos for a short visit, finding a city both familiar and strange. In a city dense with story, the unnamed narrator moves through a mosaic of life, hoping to find inspiration for his own. He witnesses the “yahoo yahoo” diligently perpetrating email frauds from an Internet café, longs after a mysterious woman reading on a public bus who disembarks and disappears into a bookless crowd, and recalls the tragic fate of an eleven-year-old boy accused of stealing at a local market. Along the way, the man reconnects with old friends, a former girlfriend, and extended family, taps into the energies of Lagos life—creative, malevolent, ambiguous—and slowly begins to reconcile the profound changes that have taken place in his country and the truth about himself. In spare, precise prose that sees humanity everywhere, interwoven with original photos by the author, Every Day Is for the Thief—originally published in Nigeria in 2007—is a wholly original work of fiction. This revised and updated edition is the first version of this unique book to be made available outside Africa. You’ve never read a book like Every Day Is for the Thief because no one writes like Teju Cole. Praise for Every Day Is for the Thief “A luminous rumination on storytelling and place, exile and return . . . extraordinary.”—San Francisco Chronicle “Cole is following in a long tradition of writerly walkers who, in the tradition of Baudelaire, make their way through urban spaces on foot and take their time doing so. Like Alfred Kazin, Joseph Mitchell, J. M. Coetzee, and W. G. Sebald (with whom he is often compared), Cole adds to the literature in his own zeitgeisty fashion.”—The Boston Globe

Download or read book Django written by Steven Holzner and published by Peachpit Press. This book was released on 2009-12-20 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DJango is a open source web application framework written in Python. It follows the MVC (model view controller) design pattern; this software design pattern separates business logic from the user interface making it easier to make changes to the logic or interface without affecting the other. Django's primary goal is to ease the creation of complex, database-driven websites. The framework emphasizes reusability and "pluggability" of components, rapid development, and the principle of DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself). Python is used throughout. Django: Visual QuickStart Guide starts at the beginning and moves web designers quickly along the path to developing Python Web applications with Django. After introducing readers the idea of Model/View/Controller applications and why Django is the right choice, the book walks a reader through creating their first Django Web site. It goes on to cover the ultra-cool things that can be done with Django to create robust Model/View/Controller applications.

Book Synopsis West African Soldiers in Britain's Colonial Army (1860-1960) by : Timothy Stapleton
Download or read book West African Soldiers in Britain's Colonial Army (1860-1960) written by Timothy Stapleton and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2022 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "West African Soldiers in Britain's Colonial Army, 1860-1960 explores the history of Britain's West African colonial army based in Nigeria, Ghana, Sierra Leone and the Gambia placing it within a broader social context and emphasizing, as far as possible, the experience of the ordinary soldier. The aim is not to describe the many battles and campaigns fought by this force but to look at the development of the West African colonial army as an institution over the course of about a century. In pursuing this goal, it is sometimes useful to employ the lens of military culture defined differently by scholars but essentially meaning a set of shared ideas and behaviors that inform daily life in the military. While other locally recruited colonial militaries in Africa have attracted considerable attention from historians as they served as an essential pillar supporting European rule, this book represents the first comprehensive scholarly study of Britain's West African army which was the largest such British-led force south of the Sahara. The study is based on extensive archival research conducted in nine archives located in five countries"--
