The revised edition of this book is about the man of action who lived his life for the common man, a man who did extraordinary things for his country, a man who dared the odds to serve his people through ways that are not common among the common, a man who left behind a vision that is worth championing, a man who mentored common men into men of candid action for the glory of mother Zambia, a man who sacrificed his life for both the poor and the rich, a man who did not seek his own, but labored to see good for his country, a man of action and defined only by his bold and courageous approach to life and politics, a man who dreamt beyond selfish gain, a man who dreamt beyond his own glory, a man who dared to dream for the people of the lowest social and economic status, a man who wanted to serve both the rich and the poor, no wonder he was called the man of action. This was the man, the fifth republican president of Zambia, His Excellency the late Michael Chilufya Sata (1936- 2014).

In these pages, are suggestions on how we can train our memory and use it to make our dreams a living reality. I hope and trust that the reader will pick one or two principles and glide on them through the 'hazy and slippery' path to destiny and will not be lost in the thickness of the fog of life's hustles and bustles. Many principles are suggested by many, but I have chosen to dwell on the few that I see as critical to enhancing memory. Be analytical, critical, and thoughtful and stretch your memory as you walk with me through the pages of this script!
This political discourse is about the life of the MAN OF ACTION, His Excellency, the late Michael Chilufya Sata and the courageous life of a man who dared the wolves to protect his hero's vision and continue on his legacy, a Mr. Walk the talk, His Excellency, Edgar Chagwa Lungu. It ponders and meanders through the successes that the former attained and the successes that the Patriotic front has attained and the strides that it continues to make to drive the country to the desirable. It is born from a desire by a common man to show the non-commonality of a common man who went out of his way to initiate a party that has wrought good for a country of great ethnic diversity.
This book is for all those who believe that their present state is not the end of their story. You are not an act of chance; you have a dream to leave and are a candidate for success: ...I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all. Ecclesiastes 9:11. The audience for the words on these pages are all those who are yearning to face life with a renewed passion to make their dreams a living reality. May you be inspired to face life with determination and the zeal to make your dream a living reality

There are dominion forces in our atmosphere that people can be subjected to, and these forces can make them alien to natural and evil forces that dominate human life. This dynamic enablement comes about when a persons soul anchors itself to the real source of life. The soul is a spiritual embodiment of knowledge and emotion in man. A soul is a search engine in man; it seeks a resting place to which it can attach itself so it can draw out the virtues of knowledge and emotion. When a persons soul is changed, everything about that person takes a different route. Mans nature changes only when a complex soul is achieved. The soul draws from blood its ability to unite with another soul to form a complex soul. Without blood the soul cannot find its resting place and cannot be changed. This is why the first requirement in the salvation of man is blood. And the blood of salvation needed to have different contents from the usual human blood on earth. The contents of the blood of Jesus can make people live like Martians in this world. Common human blood is highly wicked and only leads man to unite himself with wicked spiritual forces to form a soul that is dominated by evil.
John Makilya reveals an in-depth look of Kenya, its people, and its traditions in this memoir about growing up there and starting a family before immigrating to the United States of America. He traces his roots, including how his father became a pioneer educator and was selected to lead a Kenyan delegation on a pilgrimage to Rome during the 1950 Catholic Jubilee. Upon his return to Kenya, he acquired land for the establishment of a Catholic church and later ventured into parliamentary politics. Makilya also recalls his own career in various sectors, including savings and credit cooperatives, ranching and the beef industry, sustainable community-owned water projects, horticultural production and marketing, community-owned fishing enterprises, and wildlife conservation. In doing so, he shares an intimate account of his work as a consultant making socioeconomic assessments of the World Bankfunded El Nio Emergency Project, his role in the enterprise development component of a USAID COBRA project, and his work as chairman of the board of governors of the Misyani Girls Schoolwhere he insisted girls were as talented in math and science as boys. Join the author on an inspiring journey from Kenya to the United States in Life Lessons of an Immigrant.
The science of the virus and its effects and the clinical approaches to its treatment and transmission prevention are placed in the context of the history and epidemiology of the HIV-AIDS pandemic. Each organ system of the body is explored as to manifestations of the disease, treatment now and in the future, as well as what the disease has taught us about the immune response. The science of epidemiology, which is so important in allowing for tracking of the disease and potential limitation of transmission, is another aspect of AIDS explored in detail. The pandemic manifests differently in different parts of the world, and the relevance of the volume is enhanced by its international group of contributors. No other text provides the historical and epidemiological context of this disease along with an update of diagnosis and treatment. The underlying science and epidemiology of AIDS are not neglected, so the student or clinician who is treating patients with AIDS can gain a full understanding of HIV/AIDS in individual patients and in their communities.
A look at the encounter between the French and the peoples of Southern Gabon in terms of their differing conceptions of boundaries. In the second half of the nineteenth century, two very different practices of territoriality confronted each other in Southern Gabon. Clan and lineage relationships were most important in the local practice, while the French practice was informed by a territorial definition of society that had emerged with the rise of the modern nation-state and industrial capitalism. This modern territoriality used an array of bureaucratic instruments -- such as maps andcensuses -- previously unknown in equatorial Africa. Such instruments denied the existence of locally created territories and were fundamental to the exercise of colonial power. Thus modern territoriality imposed categories and institutions foreign to the peoples to whom they were applied. As colonial power became more effective from the 1920s on, those institutions started to be appropriated by Gabonese cultural elites who negotiated their meanings in reference to their own traditions. The result was a strongly ambiguous condition that left its imprint on the new colonial territories and subsequently the postcolonial Gabonese state. Christopher Gray was Assistant Professor of History, Florida International University.
For colonial administrators and the Belgian banks, the Belgian Congo was an immensely rich source of raw materials; diamonds, gold, manganese, oils, nuts, tobacco, peanuts, etc. One of the major forms of exploitation of the Congo was the effort to set up mining companies and to force Africans to work in the mines to extract these resources. Focusing on the most powerful of these mining companies--the Union Minière du Haut-Katange, John Higginson provides a detailed history of the relationship between the company and the African workers from 1907 through 1951
