Book Synopsis The Good Dictator I by : Gonçalo JN Dias
Download or read book The Good Dictator I written by Gonçalo JN Dias and published by Gonçalo JN Dias. This book was released on 2016-11-25 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From de award-winning Portuguese author Gonçalo JN Dias comes a trilogy about the struggle for power An unidentified object parked on the moon - and no one seems to know where it came from. Gustavo, a middle-aged computer programmer with a comfortable and grey life, decides to make a list of what he would need to survive a hypothetical attack. He becomes obsessed with the list, spends a fortune, robs a drugstore: his own family thinks he is going insane. However, after the attack, it’s the insane who are well prepared for a new era in society. Excerpt: Gustavo laughed again, he looked down with an amused look and saw the great hate that emanated from The Fatty. "Do you know why it came down to this? You on your knees and me standing and observing your village in flames? Because you’re the weakest link. You know, you fatty, in the animal world, the ones who adapt the better to the environmental conditions are the ones who survive, and just between you and me, we both have the best example of it. You, who still think you are the GNR commander and that someone will come from the past to make me pay for my deeds. While I have quickly adapted to the new reality: as soon as the craft landed on The Moon, I made a list of indispensable things, I spent a lot of money on this list, I robbed a drugstore and was considered to be crazy by my family, but when the attack occurred, this crazy one was the one who had adapted the best to the new environment. And, let me tell you: I longed for this attack; I was fed up with living my comfortable and gray life behind a computer. It’s your fault." – Gustavo pointed out to the village, from which, on that hill, one could hear the bustling noise of gunshots and could clearly see the fire inside the village and on the fields around it. – "Your pride and your attempt to keep your status-quo have brought us to this point. If you had known how to read the new winds, you would have understood that the only way was to join us and you’d certainly hold some important position in Malpica's committee or even as an officer in my army, but your lack of foresight has made your own village pay for it. Anyhow, it seems to me that it's for the best that people like you have no place in this new society – so as not to contaminate it. You’ve always taken advantage of your position to bring benefits to your house, you forgave fines, received bribes and gifts and certainly, you’d do the same in this new society if you were given a chance. But believe me, people like you, corrupt people who use their political or professional position to fill their pockets have their days numbered. For them, there will be a hard penalty, forced labor in prison along with the murderers, thieves and the remaining scum. The prisons in the Serrano Empire will be a place where there will be an average of work of twelve hours a day and if they get out of prison and commit another crime, there will be no second chance." "In the future, Gustavo, you will be remembered as a crazy and mad dictator. " – the former commander spoke now without any anger or hate, he had resigned himself to his cruel destiny and his look was serene and lost in the direction of his village. Gustavo also looked towards Malpica as if he watched a giant theater play and without shifting his eyes, he went on: " Perhaps, history is written by the victors and the same goes for the truth, there are always different perspectives."

Book excerpt: “Amazing stories . . . Intimate portraits of how [these five ruthless leaders] were at home and at the table.” —Lulu Garcia-Navarro, NPR’s Weekend Edition Sunday Anthony Bourdain meets Kapuściński in this chilling look from within the kitchen at the appetites of five of the twentieth century's most infamous dictators, by the acclaimed author of Dancing Bears and What’s Cooking in the Kremlin What was Pol Pot eating while two million Cambodians were dying of hunger? Did Idi Amin really eat human flesh? And why was Fidel Castro obsessed with one particular cow? Traveling across four continents, from the ruins of Iraq to the savannahs of Kenya, Witold Szabłowski tracked down the personal chefs of five dictators known for the oppression and massacre of their own citizens—Iraq’s Saddam Hussein, Uganda’s Idi Amin, Albania’s Enver Hoxha, Cuba’s Fidel Castro, and Cambodia’s Pol Pot—and listened to their stories over sweet-and-sour soup, goat-meat pilaf, bottles of rum, and games of gin rummy. Dishy, deliciously readable, and dead serious, How to Feed a Dictator provides a knife’s-edge view of life under tyranny.

Book Synopsis The Sink or Swim Money Program by : John E. Whitcomb
Download or read book The Sink or Swim Money Program written by John E. Whitcomb and published by Diversion Books. This book was released on 2016-08-21 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A step-by-step guide to teaching kids fiscal responsibility, and instilling positive spending habits that will last a lifetime. Children don’t know much about money—they just know what they want (like overpriced junk food and the most expensive sneakers). But learning a little financial wisdom can set them on a path that will make their futures significantly better—and allow them to navigate a scary adult world full of spending pitfalls. In this book, Dr. John E. Whitcomb provides a six-step program to do just that. It begins with letting go. Terrifying as it seems, your children learn more with the power of non-essential spending in their own hands. With the freedom to spend as they please and make their own mistakes, spending money becomes not an argument, but an important lesson in priorities. But they won't be alone in the wild with a pocket full of cash. Whether for school, clothes, or hobbies, teens and parents can sign a contract detailing the limits of their spending that work for each of them. From day-to-day decisions all the way to the milestones of adulthood—opening their first checking account, college savings, and getting their first car—Dr. Whitcomb's application of the capitation method prepares them for every step of their financial journey. “Explains Whitcomb's original and systematic technique for teaching kids how to manage money responsibly.”—Publishers Weekly Previously published as Capitating Your Kids: Teaching Your Teens Financial Independence
Book Synopsis Private Government by : Elizabeth Anderson
Download or read book Private Government written by Elizabeth Anderson and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2019-04-30 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why our workplaces are authoritarian private governments—and why we can’t see it One in four American workers says their workplace is a “dictatorship.” Yet that number almost certainly would be higher if we recognized employers for what they are—private governments with sweeping authoritarian power over our lives. Many employers minutely regulate workers’ speech, clothing, and manners on the job, and employers often extend their authority to the off-duty lives of workers, who can be fired for their political speech, recreational activities, diet, and almost anything else employers care to govern. In this compelling book, Elizabeth Anderson examines why, despite all this, we continue to talk as if free markets make workers free, and she proposes a better way to think about the workplace, opening up space for discovering how workers can enjoy real freedom.
