Book Description
To everyone around her, Elise Cameron seems to have it all together. Beautiful, confident and well-educated, there seems to be nothing holding her back from happiness and success-nothing but her own self-doubt and longing for a closer relationship with a grandfather she barely knows. Elise's ambitions-even her choices in men-have been driven by her desire to win the approval of her grandfather, a prominent minister. Every man must fit an image she believes her grandfather would approve of, until an attractive-and totally unconventional-brother comes into her life, bringing valuable lessons about self-acceptance, and real love.

Black Animals Too Matter and Other Yarns
Author: Raju Ganapathy
Publisher: StoryMirror Infotech Pvt Ltd
ISBN: 9392661231
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 84
Book Description
About the Book: This book is a satiric yarn. How else could black animals protest the partiality shown to the cows? What else could bring Sherlock and Chacha Choudhary to team up to investigate the missing jewel; or the genie in a bottle to become a symbol of the election campaign in Tamil Nadu; or the 2020 cricket tale from the Mahabharata to happen where Dhritarashtra makes a telling comment on the people of India; or the ‘Laat maaro goliko,’ a subtle commentary by Sanjaya, yet again from Mahabharata; or for that matter, the conversation with Shiva himself? Also, don’t miss out on the Velvel Vetrivel episode in Tamil Nadu. About the Author: Raju Ganapathy, by a stroke of luck, made it to the IIT and continued to ride his luck in completing Rural Management at IRMA, Anand, Gujarat. Now that the ‘achche din’ has come, he quit trying to rid India of her poverty. For the past few years, words have become his best friends. Some of his friends call him a wordsmith, whether his words are worth it or not. He succumbed to his whim and self-published a few titles in Kindle. He reflects on himself at StoryMirror and pens a few words now and then.

Elderly Lives Matter Too
Author: John C. Walshe
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 166323079X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 341
Book Description
One of the main points of this book is to question should we incarcerate the elderly especially who suffer from a mental illness? If we incarcerate the elderly how should they be treated? Our prisons are full of elderly people who have suffered a mental breakdown and are presently suffering from a mental illness. Also can we treat a 70-year-old as we do a 20-year-old while incarcerated? The obvious answer to that question is no but yet we do treat them the same. I wish to demonstrate that incarceration time for the elderly is much worse than it is for the young or middle age and even worse yet for the mentally ill. This should be taken into consideration when prosecuting and sentencing the elderly or mentally ill. Can you treat a mentally ill person the same as a person who is not suffering from a mental illness? I would like to believe that most Americans would answer the previous two question with a big “No” Yes, I will agree there are a minority who are still so dangerous to their fellow man even at a late age that they have to be incarcerated but again I believe it is a small minority. How should we treat elderly who have mental breakdowns as so many will? In the United States if a person has a mental breakdown they are three times as likely to wind up in a prison than an appropriate hospital or mental institution. Should our prisons be filled with the mentally ill as they now are? The older we get the more susceptible we are to a mental breakdown as the incidence of dementia substantiates. As an example consider how vulnerable the elderly are to Alzheimer’s disease the largest form of dementia as we age. The incidence of Alzheimer’s disease is 17% for the age group of 65 to 74 years and 47% for 75 to 84 years. It almost triples in just a decade. Before we prosecute do we make the proper effort to diagnose to find out why the elderly and people as a whole commit crimes? In my case why does a man in his so-called golden years become a criminal after living a productive, law abiding and good life? Did I just repress my criminal instincts and desires for six decades or did I repress my feelings from traumatic events which could lead to mental illness?

Because They Matter, Too
Author: Cindy Traisi
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1440164908
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 134
Book Description
Cindy Traisi has done it again. She has brought me joy with her storytelling abilities and brought this self-perceived, tattooed tough guy to tears with her accounts of the injured wild animals passing through the Fund for Animals Wildlife Center in Southern California. Cindy's first book, Because They Matter, was a constant nightstand companion when my children were younger. My daughters demanded "just one more" of the heart-touching stories of the remarkable job of treating wild animals while they are trying to get by as best they can in a world dominated by human hazards. Some animals in her stories make it, too many don't, but every one of Cindy's accounts of the work done by her husband, Chuck, and their dedicated staff allows readers to appreciate the personalities and endearing qualities of nature's wonders. Because They Matter, Too is filled with new heart-lifting and heartbreaking stories of the wild animals that live all around us in Southern California. If you love nature, or just love expert story-telling, Because They Matter, Too is a must read. As my daughters put it: just one more Cindy! Better yet... keep them coming, Cindy.
