Book Description
Deason McKindle dreams of breaking free. Free from the ex-wife whose cheating ways landed his fist in his boss's face, free from his dead-end job as a trash collector, free from small-town Oklahoma. In two weeks, his dream of a fresh start in Montana will come true. His dreams scatter when he saves Charis Locke from her abusive ex-husband. The gratitude in her eyes awakens a passion deep inside him. But when he later discovers the ex-husband's corpse in a dumpster, Deason's charged with murder. Instead of breaking free, he loses every freedom he's ever known. Charis thought she couldn't love any man other than the Alzheimer's patient she takes care of. But when Deason is arrested, she can't let him go to prison without a fight. As fate would have it, Charis has finally fallen in love, and only the key to the killer's identity will unlock her dreams.

Book Description
This handbook provides an overview of the society, culture, geography, history, and politics of contemporary Egypt. While such historic monuments as the pyramids at Giza, the Karnak Temple, and the Valley of the Kings draw visitors to Egypt each year, the country is today a large and varied collection of some 79 million people. An important political and cultural force in the Middle East and home to one of Africa's most advanced economies, Egypt is rapidly becoming a major player in the 21st-century world. This comprehensive text examines all facets of life in Egypt, including its land, history, politics, and culture. It is written in a manner that makes the subject accessible and engaging for readers with little prior knowledge about the country, but also provides a critical analysis of the latest research for students and scholars familiar with Egypt and its people. Special attention is given to the historical period following the rise of Islam to enable a greater understanding of Egypt's contemporary government, religious practices, popular culture, and current events.

Book Description
Rummage tells the overlooked story of our throwaway past. Emily Cockayne extracts glittering gems from the rubbish pile of centuries past and introduces us to the visionaries, crooks and everyday do-gooders who have shaped the material world we live in today - like the fancy ladies of the First World War who turned dog hair into yarn, or the Victorian gentlemen selling pianofortes made from papier-mache, or the hapless public servants coaxing people into giving up their railings for the greater good.0In this original and fascinating new history, Cockayne illuminates our relationship to our rubbish: from the simple question of how we reuse and recycle things (and which is better), to all the weird and wonderful ways it's been done in the past. She exposes the hidden work (often done by women) that has gone into shaping the world for each future generation, and she shows what lessons can be drawn from the past to address urgent questions of our waste today.

Book Description
About the book: EveryDay Struggle EveryDay Survival EveryDay Hostility EveryDay Friendship EveryDay Violence EveryDay Empowerment In this rhythm and blues world, L is a young African-American man living in a one bedroom apartment in one of the many long-forgotten ghettos of America. He struggles with drug use, gang violence, and the usual bitchassness of his friends. During EveryDay Life's nostalgic verbal romp through the 90s, no subject from spankings to war is off limits to L and his three friends. In between sessions of smoking for perspective, these friends delve into a convoluted, yet endearing, never-before-seen game of The Dozens. L was once a promising athlete who is now relegated to the ghetto after being unjustly prosecuted. He is no longer satisfied with his lot in life and decides to make a life-altering change after much soul-searching, unwarranted police stops, and the assholism of his urban comrades. Follow L and his friends as they expound on their views of life, love, and society in a hip-hop nation. You know-the sort of things that happen in EveryDay Life. About the Author: With the odds stacked against him, MG Hardie maintained a 3.4 GPA and earned three degrees and a professional license in the span of six years. Living in Long Beach, he realized that even the so-called "lazy" or "shiftless" have feelings, thoughts, and ideas, which until now have had no real voice in society. He strives to bring the real urbanism with a positive twist to it. MG Hardie has accomplished just that with EveryDay Life.
