Fashionable London holds nothing for wealthy merchant's niece, Lalamani Finchurch. Except perhaps for an earl with a twisted hand and a charming smile. Why, for all the fortune hunters she has fended off since returning from India, is the one man who seems to like her so against marrying for money? Philip has inherited an earldom so impoverished that his only two choices are to marry for money or to abandon Society altogether and return to his work as an engineer. Which is no choice at all, until a tiny woman with beautiful eyes and a fine mind dances with him on his last night in London. When they meet again in a small country village, they join forces to uncover larceny and deceit, to rescue Lalamani's aunt from poverty, and to discover that pride is a poor reason to refuse a love for a lifetime.

UNIQUE AND GIFTEDPATH TO A FRUITFUL LIFEIn this eye-opening, stimulating, and very readable book, Unique and Gifted: Path to a Fruitful Life, Pastor Jude Akinleyimu takes us through an understanding that many Christian authors have not shed light on for so long. His book is the one that challenges many of human's ability to develop and actualize God-given gifts in the human's life. I like how the book shows that gifts are God-given, and we have to make good use of them all. Jude Akinleyimu classified the various Gifts, Talents, and Skills that make the believers stand out and empower them for the Body of Christ. Readers will feel as though they're part of an advanced study led by the Holy Spirit with a line by line understanding that reveals who they are and the gifts they possess. Then he urges them not to hide their gifts but to put them to work. I like the personal example Jude Akinleyimu gave in one of the chapters, "Do Away With Inferiority" and how he was able to overcome this in his early time as a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ assigned by their Church General Overseer to go and serve as an Area Pastor of a Church district. The assignment was very challenging-and he shows how he was able to overcome this. Overall, Jude Akinleyimu, in his book, engages the reader from the beginning to the last chapter-and leaves the reader with a desire to do more for the Body of Christ."
Not a day goes by without a new story on the perils of technology: from increasingly clever machines that surpass human capability and comprehension to genetic technologies capable of altering the human genome in ways we cannot predict. How can we respond? What should we do politically? Focusing on the rise of robotics and artificial intelligence (AI), and the impact of new reproductive and genetic technologies (Repro-tech), Jude Browne questions who has political responsibility for the structural impacts of these technologies and how we might go about preparing for the far-reaching societal changes they may bring. This thought-provoking book tackles some of the most pressing issues of our time and offers a compelling vision for how we can respond to these challenges in a way that is both politically feasible and socially responsible.
