The Meanings of Love

The Meaning of LoveThe Meaning of Love

This book is written for those people who deny romantic touches in their life. who believe that they are scattered to pieces here and there all over the world. However, the good news about love is that it makes life meaningful. The bad news is that there is always a price to be paid. "Free love" is an oxymoron—a contradiction in terms. Moreover, this seems to be true regardless of the diverse meanings that love has for us.

The price of everything solving the mystery of why we pay what we do (audiobook)The price of everything solving the mystery of why we pay what we do (audiobook)

Many of the prices we pay seem to make little sense. We shell out $2.29 for a coffee at Starbucks when a nearly identical brew can be had at the corner deli for less than a dollar. We may be less willing to give blood for $25 than to donate it for free. Americans hire the cheap labor of illegal immigrants to fix the roof or mow the lawn and vote for politicians who promise to spend billions to keep them out of the country. And citizens of the industrialized West pay hundreds of dollars a year in taxes or cash for someone to cart away trash that would be a valuable commodity in poorer parts of the world.....

BTHE BRIDE PRICE - Oxford bookworms 5THE BRIDE PRICE - Oxford bookworms 5

Buchi Emecheta in her novel The Bride Price (1976) tells the story of the clash between the traditional customs of a small Ibo village in Nigeria and the ever-encroaching influence of Africa's European colonizers, as seen through the eyes of a young girl. The bride price, a fee that is traditionally paid by the prospective husband's family for the prospective wife, is a theme that weaves its way throughout the novel. Emecheta uses this practice of bride price to literally, as well as symbolically, represent women's submission to men in African culture.

Biblical Wisdom Literature (Audiobook)Biblical Wisdom Literature (Audiobook)

In the history of wisdom literature, no tradition matches the solace and profundity found in the teachings of the Bible. For centuries, people have taken comfort and insight from the familiar yet eternally resonant writings of the Bible's wisdom literature:
  • "There is an appointed time for everything, and a time for every affair under the heavens." (book of Qoheleth)
  • "How much better to get wisdom than gold, to choose understanding rather than silver!" (book of Proverbs)
  • "A faithful friend is beyond price. No sum can balance his worth." (book of Sirach)
  • "Blessed are they who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." (Beatitudes of Jesus)

Waking Dragon: The Emerging Chinese Economy and Its Impact on the WorldWaking Dragon: The Emerging Chinese Economy and Its Impact on the World

At the dawn of the 21st century, China has emerged as the "factory floor" for global production, providing the world with cheap goods at the astonishingly low "China price". But there is a very steep price to pay for these low-budget consumables - a price that very well may have dire consequences for the health and security of the planet.
In this eye-opening series of lectures, business professor and best-selling author Peter Navarro dissects the coming China wars and their implications for all mankind. China's predatory economic policies are not just about inexpensive goods pricing out the competition.
