    "All Things Work Together for Good" was my first novel. Initially, it started on Facebook. I posted the first chapter. Jokingly, I made the comment, "here is the first chapter to my first novel." Several people responded and challenged me to finish it. I followed through only to write nine other novels since then. "All Things Work Together for Good," is faith-based. While a fiction, it takes place during the terrorist attacks of 9/11. Some of the stories written were truly based on personal testimonies. When reading this work, I encourage you to pay attention to the symbolism shared. For instance, Julie encounters Jesus three times. The question begs to be asked, "What is so significant about the number three?" The answer is Biblical. Jesus questioned Peter three times regarding his love for the Lord. This is significant. Julie had to encounter Christ three times before she understood the concept of forgiveness. Like 9/11, no one knows what to expect or when to expect it. Though it is a faith-based work, it also a drama, a love story, and a book for the reader to ponder. This work has several twists and turns. Yes, there are some surprises. The real shocker, though, comes at the end. For me to say anything from this point is to say everything. I pray you enjoy this work. More importantly

    We are witnessing today women being elected as presidents or prime ministers, women that have been awarded Nobel prizes, that perform exceedingly in sports winning Olympic medals, women that excel in art, that have defended the rights of the oppressed, that have gone to space, that are active in politics and are CEOs of businesses and corporations. Women today are found in the most di¬ cult jobs such as urgency paramedics, workers in heavy machinery factories, and in the construction of skyscrapers; they are in research laboratories or as members of toxic materials management teams. is was not the scenario 175 years ago. On the contrary, women since the cave times until the dawn of the twentieth century have been oppressed by the fact they were born as women. Social, cultural, economic, and political roles defined by men in those times obliged women to stay at home raising children, without being allowed to aspire to play a significant role in the development of the economic, civic and religious life of their communities. The explosion of women participating today in the social, political, and economic arenas of the advanced countries might give the impression that this was their situation in the past. Not true. is modern movement of women engaged in a tenacious struggle for equality with men has given them unquestionable victories, and a powerful consciousness of their role in the unfolding of a new and powerful history. Their victories, in many occasions, were acquired in open confrontation with men who did not want to accept they had inherent rights. It has been a slow process that has demanded extraordinary e ort from women all over the world. We are just beginning to witness the potential that women have, and we can foresee the brilliant future they are going to create for humanity. Appreciating, defending, and promoting this evolution is an invitation to participate with them in this extraordinary journey destined to be a magnificent stage of evolution for the benefit of all of humanity.

    Christianity's Missing Piece depicts a tormented man torn between two identities in conflict, that of a contracts manager at Rockwell international, one of the largest multinational corporations in the field of nuclear weapons, and that of a believing Christian and practicing Catholic. His book describes Siemer's years of spiritual somersaulting as he attempts to reconcile his two identities. We see him as a young Naval airman learning to be an officer and a supposed savior of the Western World In Italy, yet later a seminarian. We watch him as he marries, is hired by Rockwell and moves up through the corporate ranks. We see him witness the devastation and destruction of weapons said-to-be-used as deterrents in Vietnam. We see his life deteriorate as he turns to alcohol to cope with his two irreconcilable truths, until finally he leaves his life of comfort and decides to dedicate his life to Peace.

    The Author has written a lovely children's story to help kids confront, in a roundabout and fun way, the issue of immediate gratification, which plagues many children (and their parents). This issue is related through the story of a boy, Bill, who has a "gimme want wants" attitude that is not serving him well. Though the analogy of a pig in a pen, Bill's grandpa teaches him that a pig is best left in its pen, just like the gimme gimme want attitude is best kept contained. This story is a great way of communicating an important lesson, and parents will surely like the values it is teaching. I also think the story concept section was well written - the author clearly put a lot of thought into the underlying concept of this book. The book interactive nature is also great, and kids will benefit from putting the lessons of this story into practice.

    For thousands of years, humankind questioned what happens when we die. Philosophers and religious leaders searched for an answer. Often, the answer was, after dying, one's spirit goes to a paradise. What happens when we no longer die? Do we ever go to a paradise? Returning to Eden is a story of what humankind needs to do when it achieves immortality in this existence. It will be at least 250 years before humankind achieves immortality. Preparing for that eventuality will be difficult. The book addresses not only the scientific advancements required for immortality but also religion, social mores and folkways, economic science, educational methods, political science, resources requirements, and other factors affected by humankind's achievement. The story takes place 100 years in the future, when technical advancements provide a means for communication using artificial intelligence devices augmenting university professors lecturing from different locations on Earth and Moon for a universal symposium. Unfortunately, for humankind, even 100 years in the future, people will still be engaged in hostile conflicts. These conflicts continually interrupt the symposium, and it takes the efforts of government and university security personnel to resolve the situation. How they do it is futuristic and not simple.
