Book of the Year 2015.Finalist: International Book Awards, 2016This second, expanded, edition of Simon Daryl Wood's award-winning book continues to reveal the endless stream of lies, invention, political misinformation, self-publicity and opportunism which has kept this Victorian bogeyman alive in the darkest reaches of our 21st Century imaginations. It introduces characters many readers may not have encountered before, takes a closer look at some of Ripperology's sacred texts, and provides additional facts, allowing for a better understanding of the people, places and events surrounding the Whitechapel murders of 1888.

Alluring yet frustrating. Charming yet maddening. Such is our reaction to the literary wonder called Ecclesiastes (Qoheleth), a ""wisdom"" book that has captured the fascination of readers everywhere for over two millennia with its mix of poetry and personal reflection, its probing of the human experience and its piercing assessment of human activity--especially human labor. Its ""All is meaningless "" lament, which frames the document, is well known to all. But its message and the structure of the writer's argument remain disputed, even among professional scholars. Often overlooked, when not ignored, is the relationship between joy or contentment and the fear of God. And almost universally ignored in standard commentary is the role that satisfaction in our work plays in the life of the God-fearer. Against the mainstream of biblical scholarship, Wisdom and Work argues for the presence of a double theme in Ecclesiastes. It argues that, based on the writer's literary-rhetorical strategy, two diametrically opposed outlooks on life are being contrasted in Ecclesiastes, and that meaning and purpose, not ""meaninglessness,"" are by divine design to be the norm - a norm that infuses the daily, the ordinary, and perhaps most significantly, our work.

When the early Christian author Tertullian asked what Jerusalem has to do with Athens, he could not have anticipated the intellectual, cultural, and social challenges facing Christians in the twenty-first century. But his question is no less relevant today. What does life in Christ have to do with the stuff of our daily lives--our work, education, citizenship, and behavior? What are we on earth to do? In this wide-ranging collection, J. Daryl Charles shares insights from nearly thirty years of reflecting on these and related questions. Wisdom's Work explores the earthiness of the Christian life through essays on vocation, work, ethics, education, and the calling of believers to be salt and light in the world--the real world that we inhabit every day.
John Daryl Blouin's How To Stay Out of Jail In Georgia offers a rarely seen side of the state's, as well as the nation's, justice system. One that is filled with injustice, inconsistencies and corruption; from arrest and conviction to sentencing and parole. Blouin's portrayal of how the justice system failed him is the foundation of the book. He builds upon it with other examples of similar occurrences, and supports much of it with documented facts. Blouin also uses numerous analogies, metaphors and statistical comparisons to shed light on many of society's ills. In addition, the book relies heavily on passages from the Bible to light on many of society's ills. In addition, the book relies heavily on passages from the Bible to further draw context in situations, and it is also evident that these same passages have guided Blouin through his personal trials. How To Stay Out of Jail In Georgia is not so much about conspiracy theories as it is about harsh realities. The reader should walk away with a new perspective on what he considers justice, and hopefully he will be inspired to act. Jarvis Holliday, Editor, Lounge MagazineThe book is written particularly to help teenagers (particularly black teens) or any person, young or old, to stay out of jail in Georgia or any place in the World. Going to any jail isn't fun for anyone. Learn from this author as he retraces his steps to jail in Georgia. Dr. Mack Morant, Publisher and AuthorThis book, How To Stay Out Of Jail In Georgia is spirit feel and although the statistic may have changed over time the facts have not, nor has the Word of GOD contained within this book. This book is liberating, the facts are alarmingly awakening. This is book is nothing short of a survival guide for remaining a free man. Jamie L.
