Language and logic are inextricably commingled in our everyday speech. What we say, particularly in the form of statements, tends not only to mirror our world, but mold it into our own image. This book looks at how much of our verbal communication can be considered “valid” from the point of view of the rules of logic. Are we saying what we mean to say? Is what we hear from the media, our peers, our leaders, and those who determine the narrative “story” of our lives meaningful, rational, and logical? Even more important than the answers to these questions is the answer to whether we are the governors and rulers of our own lives. Have we abdicated this sovereign rule to forces that may...
Life is good for Ariana and Jean-Marc Perrault and their five children. Active in the gospel, prosperous in the banking business, and firmly committed to their family, they are happily moving forward with their lives. Then the bottom drops out. How does Ariana cope with imminent financial ruin, the near-fatal injury of one child and the rebellion of another, and a scheming, determined ex-husband who won’t leave her alone? Confronted by life’s challenges, Ariana discovers that her reliance on the Lord and her love for Jean-Marc and her children can make the dramatic difference between triumph and tragedy. A rare and compelling story about the power of love and the miracle of new beginnings. Note: This is the latest version of this book, completely updated and revised by the author. Any version with any other cover, whether print or ebook, is outdated. Ariana The Making of a Queen (#1) A Gift Most Precious (#2) A New Beginning (#3)
Design is part of ordinary, everyday life, to be found in every room in every building in the world. While we may tend to think of design in terms of highly desirable objects, this book encourages us to think about design as ubiquitous (from plumbing to television) and as an agent of social change (from telephones to weapon systems). The Design Culture Reader brings together an international array of writers whose work is of central importance for thinking about design culture in the past, present and future. Essays from philosophers, media and cultural theorists, historians of design, anthropologists, cultural historians, artists and literary critics all demonstrate the enormous potential o...
This book has a fundamental objective. The objective of this research is divided into general objectives and specific objectives. The general objective is to analyze the impact of the economic cooperation programs of the United States on the economic development of Ivory Coast in order to make recommendations and propose solutions and prospects to strengthen the promotion of the economic cooperation of Ivory Coast with the United States. Specifically, this research is focused on evaluating the effect of American trade programs (AGOA, BIT, BUILD Act, AWEP, Prosper Africa and Power Africa) in order to allow Ivory Coast and all the eligible African countries to derive maximum benefit from these programs and to assess the effect of the competitive presence of the United States, China, and the European Union for the economic development of the Ivory Coast.
The volume draws from René Devisch’s encounters with groups in southsaharan Africa, primarily. The author had the privilege to immerse himself, around the clock, in the Yakaphones’ activities and thoughts in southwest DR Congo from 1972 to 1974, and intermittently in Kinshasa’s shanty towns, from 1986 to 2003. The author first examines what sparked his choice to come to Congo, and then to pursue research among the Yakaphones in the borderland with Angola. He then invites us to follow the trajectory of his plural anthropological view on today’s multicentric world. It leads us to his praise for honorary doctor Jean-Marc Ela’s work. He then examines the proletarian outbursts of viole...
