Out of the Forest
What makes a man turn his back on society? What makes him return? For years a man calling himself Will Power lived in near-total isolation in northern New South Wales, foraging for food, eating bats and occasionally trading for produce. But who was this mysterious man who roamed the forest and knew all of its secrets and riddles? Some people thought he might be Jesus. Others feared he was a more sinister figure. The truth was that he was neither miraculous nor malevolent, but he was, most certainly, gifted. And when he finally emerged from the forest, emaciated and close to death, he was determined to reclaim his real name and ‘give society another chance’. Today, Dr Gregory Peel Smith, who left school at the age of fourteen, has a PhD and teaches in the Social Sciences at university. His profoundly touching and uplifting memoir is at once a unique insight into how far off track a life can go and powerful reminder that we can all find our way back if we pause for a moment in the heart of the forest.
Where Credit is Due
Borrowing is a crucial source of financing for governments all over the world. If they get it wrong, then debt crises can bring progress to a halt. But if it's done right, investment happens and conditions improve. African countries are seeking calmer capital, to raise living standards and give their economies a competitive edge.

Why I Left Goldman Sachs
An insightful and devastating account of how Wall Street lost its way from an insider who experienced the culture of Goldman Sachs first-hand. On March 14, 2012, more than three million people read Greg Smith's bombshell Op-Ed in the New York Times titled "Why I Am Leaving Goldman Sachs." The column immediately went viral, became a worldwide trending topic on Twitter, and drew passionate responses from former Fed chairman Paul Volcker, legendary General Electric CEO Jack Welch, and New York City mayor Mike Bloomberg. Mostly, though, it hit a nerve among the general public who question the role of Wall Street in society -- and the callous "take-the-money-and-run" mentality that brought the wo...

Assassination Cry of a Failed Revolution
This gripping account of William Gregory Smith aka Cyril Johnson is indicative of twenty-five years of deception, abuse of power and character assassination by the Working People Alliance (WPA). This brutally honest book exposes the WPA in the web of Lies and Betrayal. My brother, William Gregory Smith, did not seek out Dr. Walter Rodney and the WPA. They sought him for his brilliance in the field of electronics. The resulting alliance led to the loss of a brilliant mind and son of Guyana. It will become quite clear after reading this account, that once can safely conclude that history, as we know it, is not always accurate.
Nietzsche, Heidegger, and the Transition to Postmodernity
