Book excerpt: #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A passionate call to arms against our era’s most pervasive human rights violation—the oppression of women and girls in the developing world. From the bestselling authors of Tightrope, two of our most fiercely moral voices With Pulitzer Prize winners Nicholas D. Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn as our guides, we undertake an odyssey through Africa and Asia to meet the extraordinary women struggling there, among them a Cambodian teenager sold into sex slavery and an Ethiopian woman who suffered devastating injuries in childbirth. Drawing on the breadth of their combined reporting experience, Kristof and WuDunn depict our world with anger, sadness, clarity, and, ultimately, hope. They show how a little help can transform the lives of women and girls abroad. That Cambodian girl eventually escaped from her brothel and, with assistance from an aid group, built a thriving retail business that supports her family. The Ethiopian woman had her injuries repaired and in time became a surgeon. A Zimbabwean mother of five, counseled to return to school, earned her doctorate and became an expert on AIDS. Through these stories, Kristof and WuDunn help us see that the key to economic progress lies in unleashing women’s potential. They make clear how so many people have helped to do just that, and how we can each do our part. Throughout much of the world, the greatest unexploited economic resource is the female half of the population. Countries such as China have prospered precisely because they emancipated women and brought them into the formal economy. Unleashing that process globally is not only the right thing to do; it’s also the best strategy for fighting poverty. Deeply felt, pragmatic, and inspirational, Half the Sky is essential reading for every global citizen.
Download or read book Of The Sky written by Lauren Hansen and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2017-01-14 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Waking up in an unknown place should be scary, but for some reason, I felt surprisingly calm... ish... about it. Okay, I may have been mildly panicking, but the point is, I kept my wits about me! When I first arrived, I knew two things: my name is Kalani, and I need to find my brother, Zane. Everything has been a learning experience. I was told, being a Guardian would be hard, yet everyone was vague about the details. They didn't tell me I would have intense, realistic simulations to get through-the type that in the end really messes with your feelings. "Let them die," yeah, like that's easy to swallow. They certainly didn't tell me that one of my classes would be how to fly. Who leaves that out? Seriously, flying is awesome. They really should have led with that. I credit Samuel with making things easier. He's a sweet talker who knows what to say to turn me into a blubbering idiot. The whole "I like him and he likes me" scenario really gets twisted when I learn a huge secret. Do I tell him? Do I keep it to myself? It makes the "let's be honest" thing difficult when what you have to say is life altering. As if that weren't hard enough, Zane decides to slap me with his own dose of the truth. Dude, come on, I'm your twin; you should've known better. I know you're just trying to help right now, but it's just giving me more anxiety. Ugh! On top of it all, it turns out Guardianship is about to be changed forever. Thanks, Alex.

Book excerpt: The bestselling author of The Fionavar Tapestry weaves a world inspired by the conflicts and dramas of Renaissance Europe. Against this tumultuous backdrop the lives of men and women unfold on the borderlands—where empires and faiths collide. From the small coastal town of Senjan, notorious for its pirates, a young woman sets out to find vengeance for her lost family. That same spring, from the wealthy city-state of Seressa, famous for its canals and lagoon, come two very different people: a young artist traveling to the dangerous east to paint the grand khalif at his request—and possibly to do more—and a fiercely intelligent, angry woman posing as a doctor’s wife but sent by Seressa as a spy. The trading ship that carries them is commanded by the accomplished younger son of a merchant family, ambivalent about the life he’s been born to live. And farther east a boy trains to become a soldier in the elite infantry of the khalif—to win glory in the war everyone knows is coming. As these lives entwine, their fates—and those of many others—will hang in the balance when the khalif sends out his massive army to take the great fortress that is the gateway to the western world....

Over the years that follow, she is forced to keep reinventing herself to survive. From a calligraphy school, to a San Francisco brothel, to a shop tucked into the Idaho mountains, we follow Daiyu on a desperate quest to outrun the tragedy that chases her.
