Economic Crisis: World Food System - The Battle against Poverty, Pollution and Corruption
The Law [Illustrated]
Not free everywhere.
”by Frédéric Bastiat… an economist, statesman and member of the French assembly. His writing was during the time of the Revolution of 1848 when France was moving toward socialism. Bastiat wrote The Law, a treatise explaining the problems with socialism, as a warning. While the essay was written during a different era, it remains an essential political and economic work for modern society. It gives readers a strong understanding of liberty, law, and the underpinnings of society.”
The Face of Dysfunction
”a concentrated summary of negative and damaging behaviors found in dysfunctional families that interfere with healthy functioning and interactions found in functional families. Sara Niles (Pen Name for Josephine Thompson), a former domestic violence trainer and counselor and author of The Torn Trilogy, narrates this concise and powerful work.”

Politics, Terrorism, and Intrigue/Conspiracy
Pandora's Succession
”Fox barely escapes after learning that Ares has acquired a hyperdeadly microbe--called Pandora--that is believed to have wiped out ancient civilizations. The trail leads Fox to Tokyo where he discovers that people within the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Japanese Intelligence want Pandora for themselves.”
Power Transfer
”Economic terrorism took the United States by surprise, it was the first time this tactic had been used. Hundreds of terrorist incidents across the country virtually brought the country to its knees, too late the offer of help from dollar rich countries was recognised as a trap. The power of the government was severly limited and industry was in a bad way. Washington detective Mike Scott was the unlikely saviour but not before he was taken hostage, moved around the Middle East and survived numerous attempts on his life. On his return the depth of penetration by the opposition into the government of the country was recognised and although partly dealt with still remained a problem.”

More Sci-Fi-or-Fantasy-ish
faceless
”How dangerous can a social network really be? In the near future, mobile Internet hologlasses allow everyone to stay connected to online social networks 24/7. But after young computer whiz Dylan Sweitzer receives an anonymous, "faceless" message from someone off the grid, his virtual interactions start putting the lives of his online friends in very real jeopardy. His action-packed adventure forces him to face the dark consequences of living an entire life online.”
The Secret Apocalypse (Book 1)
Zombies. ”Sixteen year old Rebecca Robinson is the sole survivor of the Australian Apocalypse. The death toll is at an estimated 22 million. ... Sydney, Australia 3 Weeks Earlier A deadly new virus is spreading through an immigration detention centre in the outback. It is 100% lethal. ...As a precaution ...No one is allowed to leave the country. No one is allowed to enter. ... Despite these warning signs Rebecca and her friends are in the mood to celebrate their extended summer vacation, blissfully unaware of the dangers that are coming their way. Over the next few days, things go from bad to worse as the virus begins to spread throughout Australia, killing anyone infected and turning them into ferocious undead monsters. Worse, the military have been ordered to contain the spread of infection and to cover up all trace of the outbreak by any means necessary. Mass panic and hysteria grip the population as the plague reaches the outskirts of Sydney. Rebecca and her friends realise that it's no longer safe to simply go home and lock the door. They need to make a run for it. They need to escape from Australia.”

All The Way Home (Historical Fiction Best Sellers)
Excellent reviews. “an eight-year-old German-Irish girl growing up in California who, as the youngest of six in an abusive and alcoholic family, informally adopts Sunny Yamagata and her Japanese-American family as her own in the late 1930s. War soon separates Augie from her beloved friends, who are deported to an American internment camp for Japanese-Americans. After losing touch for 23 years, they meet again in Mississippi in the racially torn 1960s, where Sunny is working to establish voting rights for blacks. Injustice is a funny thing... live long enough and you're going to get rained on, Sunny tells her friend, and as the story draws to a conclusion, they are challenged to make choices that reflect their own conflicts about race and forgiveness. Tatlock (A Room of My Own; A Place Called Morning) adeptly traces the girls' journey of faith with a light and sometimes humorous touch. She does an excellent job juxtaposing the horrors of Americans in Japanese hands and Japanese-Americans in the hands of their countrymen.” “Readers who are jaded and skeptical about the quality of Christian novels will find Tatlock's fictional exploration of racial discrimination, hatred and the human heart a fine example of the progress being made in the category.”
