Characteristically, Africans in any Western country are asked so many different questions about "Africa," as Westerners love to refer to the many countries that make up that huge continent, as if Africa were a single nation state. So one begins wondering why it is that Africans, on the other hand, do not refer to individual European countries as "Europe" simply, then the trends and consequences of stereotyping begin setting in just as one is getting used to being asked if Africa has a president, or if one can say something in African. It is some of these questions that Emmanuel Fru Doh has collected over the years and has attempted answering them in an effort to shed some light on a continent that is in many ways like the rest of the world, when not better, but which so many love to paint as dark, backward, chaotic, and pathetic.

"George Bernard Shaw" is a biography of the great British playwright G. K. Chesterton. The book considers the literary works and political views of George Bernard Shaw.

Fact-filled, fun-filled, as interesting to parents as it is to kids, the How Come? series is the trusted source for lively, clear answers to kids’ science queries. Now the best questions and answers from all three books—How Come?; How Come? Planet Earth; and How Come? In the Neighborhood—have been revised, updated, freshly illustrated in full color, supplemented with twenty completely new questions, and combined into one bigger, better volume. How Come? explains, in fascinating detail, more than 200 mysteries and phenomena in the world around us. These are the questions that pique kids’ curiosity—and stump parents. When it rains, does running (rather than walking) to the nearest shelter really keep you any drier? How can a stone skip across a pond (instead of sink)? If the Earth is spinning, why can’t we feel it? Why don’t we fly off? Why do elephants have trunks? And the all-time classic, Why is the sky blue? (Sunlight has a hidden rainbow of colors, and air molecules scatter blues the most—sending bright blue light down to Earth.) The text is clearly written, engaging, and accessible. It’s for every kid who wants to know—and every grown-up who simply doesn’t know.

For love, money, power… or vengeance? For Historian Jacob Atlas Roy, the newest member of a hastily thrown together Inter-Dimensional Task Force, that is the question – Why would someone leave their world behind… to travel through time? But at the site of the team’s fourth ‘Tear’, deep in a forest outside of Munich, there can only be one reason. To play in one universe… with the devil of another. Because in Germany there is one man who stands above all others in infamy. One who can flip modern history like no other. While Roy and his IDTF team scramble to follow a fast vanishing bread-trail back in time, they must contend too with a Ridge on the precipice of collapse. With history stacked, universe upon universe, the only option Roy will have to save his world… will be to enter another of infinite possibility… How different could it be?
