Rakastetun kertojan loisteliaassa romaanissa lähihistoriamme suuri tuntematon puhuu itse ja kertoo tarinansa suoraan lukijalle.Jatkosodan etulinjan taistelija, laulua ja tanssia rakastava hurmuri, joutuu presidenttinä rauhaisan kehityksen sijasta johtamaan maata syvän talouslaman, katastrofaalisen pankkikriisin ja sosialismin romahduksen oloissa, ja arvostelu on julmaa.Manun optimismia ei kuitenkaan voi lopullisesti nujertaa, hänellä on varmat aseensa: uskollinen rakkaus, pettämätön ystävyys, ja huumorintaju, joka loppuu vasta kolmannen valheen kohdalla.
Manu's Code of Law

Manu's Code of Law is one of the most important texts in the Sanskrit canon, indeed one of the most important surviving texts from any classical civilization. It paints an astoundingly detailed picture of ancient Indian life-covering everything from the constitution of the king's cabinet to the price of a ferry trip for a pregnant woman-and its doctrines have been central to Indian thought and practice for 2000 years. Despite its importance, however, until now no one has produced a critical edition of this text. As a result, for centuries scholars have been forced to accept clearly inferior editions of Sanskrit texts and to use those unreliable editions as the basis for constructing the history of classical India. In this volume, Patrick Olivelle has assembled the critical text of Manu, including a critical apparatus containing all the significant manuscript variants, along with a reliable and readable translation, copious explanatory notes, and a comprehensive introduction on the structure, content, and socio-political context of the treatise. The result is an outstanding scholarly achievement that will be an essential tool for any serious student of India.
On a school trip to Honolulu’s Bishop Museum, Manu and his classmates are excited to see an ancient skirt made with a million yellow feathers from the ‘o‘o, a bird native to Hawai‘i that had gone extinct long ago. Manu knew his full name, Manu‘o‘omauloa, meant "May the ‘o‘o bird live on" but never understood: Why was he named after a native forest bird that no longer existed? Manu told his parents he wanted to know more about ‘o‘o birds and together they searched the internet. The next day, his teacher shared more facts with the class. There was so much to learn! As his mind fills with new discoveries, Manu has vivid dreams of his namesake bird. After a surprise visit to Hawai‘i Island where the family sees native forest birds in their natural setting, Manu finally understands the meaning of his name, and that he can help the birds and promote a healthy forest.Manu, the Boy Who Loved Birds is a story about extinction, conservation, and culture, told through a child’s experience and curiosity. Readers learn along with Manu about the extinct honeyeater for which he was named, his Hawaiian heritage, and the relationship between animals and habitat. An afterword includes in-depth information on Hawai‘i’s forest birds and featherwork in old Hawai‘i, a glossary, and a list of things to do to help. Illustrated with eye-catching, full-color block prints, the book accurately depicts and incorporates natural science and culture in a whimsical way, showing how we can all make a difference for wildlife.
