Book Description
After the fall of democracy, the royal monarchy was replaced, uniting all of North America to create one big country: Aedorynn. And since the start of Aedorynn, traditions were put in place to keep the royal family the highlight of the nation. When a member of the royal family turns twenty-one years old, all eligible sons and daughters of dukes and lords of each province must venture to the royal palace to compete for marriage. It’s a tradition that has lasted since the end of the War of Civil Unrest—a tradition that Kaiser Rowan wanted nothing to do with. Lady Kaiser Rowan is the daughter of Josephine and Philip Rowan, duke and lady of the province of Texxarnan. She is sarcastic, blunt, and rebellious by nature; so when she is told that she must compete in the race for the crown, she is less than thrilled. Kaiser forms a plan to get back home as soon as possible, but things don’t always go as planned.

Book Description
Accelerating automation threatens to displace multitudes of workers. The proposals to deal with the crisis -- increased education and guaranteed minimum income -- are insufficient. Here is a new solution from Jonathan Kolber, author of "Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations." ENDORSEMENTS: "A far reaching elucidation of many of today's (and more importantly, tomorrow's) global problems, but he has also done that rare and difficult thing - provided a thoughtful and detailed solution to them....The coming economic disruption that will be caused by automation and robotics in the next few decades will create enormous social upheaval - and whether that effect is negative or positive depends on how many people will seriously embrace the principles in this book." Alexander R. Bandar, Ph.D. Founder/CEO of the Columbus Idea Foundry "This is an unusual book that you have to read. Most works on "the future" are familiar treatments of fairly well-known issues, whereas Jonathan Kolber has given us exactly what the title suggests-a celebration of the marvelous breakthroughs ahead and their profound possibilities. Well-researched and beautifully written, this book will inspire you." William E. Halal George Washington University and President of TechCast Global Author, Technology's Promise: Expert Knowledge on the Transformation of Business and Society "Well-researched and instructive, this is a must-read for people interested in creating a more positive and meaningful society." Brian Vicente co-director of Colorados's Amendment 64 campaign "An excellent book which is a par excellence achievement that connects 26 widely disparate domains. Very well written.... every chapter and page had great insights." Rohit Sharma Founder of Perchingtree Author, Luck Reengineering and Mental Model Innovation "Kolber has created the blueprint for growth and effortless prosperity by shifting from the competitive model to the cooperative model." Berny Dohrmann Founder of CEO Space International Author, Redemption: The Cooperation Revolution "The author takes a systematic look at every function of a civilization: from economics to well-being to governance, and paints a picture of a civilization that is based on abundance instead of scarcity."
