Book Description
KANDI LAND is the life of Sherita Holiway, Kandi was my street name. Where I got Kandi land from was from the places and people I endured and encountered in this book. This book speaks to all walks of life, not just my life. I'm going to walk you through what I endured from the age of 2 months to 31 years old. My autobiography gives you insight on what I was going through when I first started writing my autobiography while in Denver county serving a 365 day sentence, it gives the reader some more insight on the whole process I went through writing my book. I wrote it by hand first. I wanted to keep you the reader interested by sharing bible scriptures, encouraging words, actual dates, situations, as well as pictures. I wanted a very well-painted visual. This book talks about overcoming and surviving abuse physically, emotionally, and eternally. How a little girl went from being innocent and sweet and well brought up to a woman that had to walk down the streets of Colfax at night with no direction, guidance, love, support, feelings of manipulation, used, and abused. Feelings so deep of being trapped and belittled everywhere I turned, not knowing if I was going to live or die and basically surviving just to live. This all happens within a blink of an eye. This is a teach-all, tell-all, help one another type book. This book is inspired to uplift, encourage, and send prayers to my family, the reader, and myself. I wanted the reader and my audience to be able to evaluate what they are enduring in their lives and take a step back, read a page of my book and get insight and hopefully change their perspective of things that they are going through. I also wrote this to teach my children, sister, and other family members that you can succeed no matter what you go through especially when you stay focus and determined, and even if you do lose sight that’s ok just get back up dust yourself off and try it again, look how many times I had to go through it. This way you know that it is always someone that has it way worse than you, so just keep your head up and stay strong. This book lets you know the ins and outs of myself as a writer without sugar coding or hiding anything. It's raw and uncut. Best of all it’s the real me.

Book Description
He was forbidden, my boss and incapable of loving me. People talked about him, whispered about him in passing. He was the king of his town. And I was a visitor. I was by no means a smart girl. Never loved with my head, always with my heart. That fact alone almost killed me once. I should have listened the second time around. But the king of this small town, had me starving. Had me craving his taste. My name is Kandi, and he called me his Kandiland. The king declared I was his medicine, and with each dose, he became better and better. He was the perfect liar. And I was his perfect Kandi. Together, we were explosive, and toxic in every way.

Book Description
Almost fifty years after Britain and France left the Middle East, the toxic legacies of their rule continue to fester. To make sense of today's conflicts and crises, we need to grasp how Western imperialism shaped the region and its destiny in the half-century between 1917 and 1967. Roger Hardy unearths an imperial history stretching from North Africa to southern Arabia that sowed the seeds of future conflict and poisoned relations between the Middle East and the West. Drawing on a rich cast of eye-witnesses - ranging from nationalists and colonial administrators to soldiers, spies, and courtesans - The Poisoned Well brings to life the making of the modern Middle East, highlighting the great dramas of decolonisation such as the end of the Palestine mandate, the Suez crisis, the Algerian war of independence, and the retreat from Aden. Concise and beautifully written, The Poisoned Well offers a thought-provoking and insightful story of the colonial legacy in the Middle East.

Book Description
I am loyal, but I will betray you. I am strong, but I have scars. I am an angel, but the devil. I met her when I was sixteen and she was a breath of fresh air. She swooped in, making me smile. But then she left, taking my next breath with her. Her smile could light up a room, making my black heart pitter patter. I found her again ten years later, with a syringe in her arm. Blood coming from between her legs. She was broken and I was glad she was broken. She wouldn't think less of me and my damaged ways.

Book Description
One of the most urgent problems facing the world today is environmental sustainability. Current practices of pollution control, waste treatment, and environmental protection are not only hugely expensive and a burden on development but also unsustainable in the long run for their steady depletion of the world's natural resources. Any solutions must have proven economic benefits, be technologically viable, and meet prevailing environmental and social perspectives. The main objective of this new set of studies is to describe methods that help to protect the environment and conserve natural resources. This can be achieved by applying the 'cradle-to-cradle' concept, which aims to use materials in closed cyclic loops without generating any type of waste or pollution. The authors provide the reader with an introduction to basic concepts of sustainable development, describe the mechanisms and benefits of related technologies, and suggest potential uses on a practical level by examining innovations developed in the mechanical engineering laboratories of the American University in Cairo. Particular focus is placed on innovation as a vital means of attaining sustainability. A timely contribution to the debate on environmentally sustainable practices, this book will be indispensable to environmentalists, scientists, economists, engineers, development specialists, and policy-makers, as well as being of interest to the lay reader.
