Who Controls America by mark mullen While Congress continues to argue over the Mueller Report and engage in partisan politics, a far more dangerous adversary goes unnoticed and unanswered as they surreptitiously whittle away middle-class liberties and freedoms. This opponent has been assaulting America relentlessly for over four decades. To make matters worse, the attackers are not terrorists; they are Americans. They work out of sight in secret rooms and hallowed halls. Their goal is the same as the Russians and Chinese: world dominance at the expense of the American middle-class. Who Controls America? is very highly recommended for social issues, political, economic, and American history collections and classes alike. -Diane Donovan, MidwestBook Review. The reader will understand who truly holds power in American society and it isn’t the masses.- Romuald Dzemo
Roads to Meaning and Resilience with Cancer by Morhaf Al Achkar, MD, Phd The book tells the stories of 39 patients with incurable lung cancer. It aims to help patients, families, and healthcare providers understand the experience of living with cancer. It also invites reflections on the essential questions of meaning, resilience, and coping with adversity in life. The author is a family doctor, teacher, and researcher who is also a stage 4 lung cancer patient himself. He is patient #40. Patients with cancer often have an urgency to find meaning in life. They struggle with the illness, its emotional impact, and the consequences of treatments. However, with time, reflection, and support from others, they develop resilience. This is an excellent book written by a physician who happened to be a patient with stage 4 lung cancer at a young age. As a physician, I can say it is an eye opening for me. It reflects the experience of forty individuals with lung cancer. The book is written in a very attractive, yet scientific style. 6
