The Forest Dames
"The Forest Dames is a pulsating story about the devastating effects of war, in which AdaOkere Agbasimalo dwells on the sordid consequences of civil war on humanity and the tortuous effort to achieve normalcy. It features Deze, a young girl with a keen mind, who lived with her parents in a typical African setting and felt the pain of war. As an adulthood, the memories remain intact, haunting her."--Page 4 of cover.
Bow You Must
Its a factual text with a tinge of fictional flair, a penetrable literature punctuated with humor and sarcasm, an inspiring work designed to encourage and lift the spirit of those who feel dejected, an outpouring of genuine sentiments truly deserving of attention, a dependable companion for the family, the student, the youth, and especially the woman and the man, and an inspiration to the efforts of international organizations and nongovernmental organizations [NGOs]. I have gone through the manuscript, and it made good reading. I believe this will be another knockout. Good luck (Professor Ethel-Dorris Umeh, Enugu State University of Technology, ESUT).

Handbook of Research on Connecting Philosophy, Media, and Development in Developing Countries
Developing nations have been experimenting with different models and theories in their quest for development for decades but are missing some critical elements when mirrored or judged via a Westernized lens. In order for these countries to successfully establish their identity and address issues that have held them back in the past, further study on the use of media and philosophy in correlation with development must be conducted. The Handbook of Research on Connecting Philosophy, Media, and Development in Developing Countries examines how media can be utilized to bridge the gap between the past and the future for developing countries and drive sustainable development. The book also seeks to reimagine development within developing regions through the prism of their unique cultures, religions, media, and philosophies so they can take hold of their identity and portrayals within the international arena. Covering topics such as human development, new media, language, and culture, this major reference work is ideal for government officials, policymakers, scholars, researchers, academicians, practitioners, instructors, and students.
New Perspectives on the Nigeria-Biafra War
New Perspectives on the Nigeria-Biafra War: No Victor, No Vanquished analyzes the continued impact of the Nigeria-Biafra war on the Igbo, the failure of the reconstruction and reconciliation effort in the post-war period, and the politics of exclusion of the memory of the war in public discourse in Nigeria. Furthermore, New Perspectives on the Nigeria-Biafra War explores the resilience of the Igbo people and the different strategies they have employed to preserve the history and memory of Biafra. The contributors argue that the war had important consequences for the socio-political developments in the post-war period, ushering in two differing ideologies: a paternalistic ideology of “co-option” of the Igbo by the Nigerian state, under the false premise of ‘No Victor, No Vanquished,” and the Igbo commitment to self-preservation on the other.
Waves of Destiny
Waves of Destiny is an exposition of a tradition of cruelty and mans inhumanity to man. But it also showcases industry and resilience, kindness and love, peace and unity, motherhood, consideration; and focus. What a juxtaposition, you would say!
