24-year-old Yanna Everleigh is an old-fashioned virgin who believes in dates before kisses and courtship before relationships. She's also the idiot who mistakes the sexy beautiful man sitting next to her on a job interview as a fellow recruit. But as it turns out, he's Constantijin Kastein, Netherlands' #1 playboy - and the billionaire CEO who gives Yanna her first intimate taste of pleasure...on the same day. Yanna acts the prude, the tease, and everything else in between to keep Constantijin at arm's length. But it doesn't work and Yanna only becomes more hopelessly entranced with her moody suitor, never mind how his complicated past makes him incapable of love. As Constantijin continues to woo and seduce, Yanna knows she must make him realize it's not enough he's offering her the world in exchange of owning her body and soul. Her Dutch billionaire must realize that her surrender has no price...because he already has her heart.
Film festivals during the Cold War were fraught with the political and social tensions that dominated the world at the time. While film was becoming an increasingly powerful medium, the European festivals in particular established themselves as showcases for filmmakers and their perceptions of reality. At the same time, their prestigious, international character attracted the interest of states and private players. The history of these festivals thus sheds light not only on the films they made available to various publics, but on the cultural policies and political processes that informed their operations. Presenting new research by an international group of younger scholars, Cultural Transfer and Political Conflicts critically investigates postwar history in the context of film festivals reconstructing not only their social background and international dispensation, but also their centrality for cultural transfers between the East, the West and the South during the Cold War.
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Who are you? What are you? Where did you come from? What are you doing in this life on Earth? Where are you going to? Using a series of questions and answers we seek to provide simple and logical responses to these classic philosophical questions, as well as many others, from the standpoint of conscientiology. What is conscientiology? Conscientiology is the science that studies the "entire" consciousness (soul, ego, individual essence), along with all of its bodies, existences, experiences, epochs and places, with an integral, projective and self-aware approach in relation to the various existential dimensions.
