Now that America is in the midst of another presidential campaign, it's appropriate to take a look back at President Obama's first two years. Was he successful as President, or was he a failure?

The Cycle's End: How our greed driven lifestyle will lead to mankind's ultimate demise
Our 21st century capitalist society, founded upon debt, relies on continuous expansion – of population, wealth and resource usage. Yet we live on a finite planet with strictly limited means. So, however optimistic you may be, perpetual growth simply isn’t possible within this fixed planetary boundary. Pretty much everything we do is dependent in some way upon one of the three fossil fuels, coal, oil and gas, and allowing for the changing trend in their usage, none is likely to last more than another 50 years. So, if you were to have a child born today, these fuels are unlikely to last that child’s lifetime. Of course, we may find the holy grail of energy – nuclear fusion dangles that carrot, but having known of that source for decades and never managed to get even close to a work...

When Adam Smith published ‘The Wealth of Nations’ in 1776, defining economics as a subject, he also launched the science of control theory. This teaches how to control things to make them change the way you want, or stay the same if that is what you prefer. It sounds easy but it is not. Great minds studied it, and now it has become a mega-subject, defined by weighty mathematical texts. But the basic ideas underlying classical control theory, explained in this book, are simple and do not require any mathematics. Control theory is not just autopilots and robots. It explains much about everyday life: - how we fall in love, or have fights - why we admire artists and thinkers more than business people, remember them longer yet pay them much less - how arms races between nations lead to wa...

Living at the Tip: Navigating the Digital Tipping Point of the Book World
We’ve been at the tipping point between traditionally printed and digital books for well over 10 years. Looking around the industry, at one end you’ll find naysayers who continue to stick their heads in the sand, believing that digitization couldn’t possibly change a centuries-old industry, and at the other those who believe "The End is Nigh!" and all traditional players should just pack it in. These articles, published on The Mark News between Nov 2009 and Oct 2011 outline one bookseller's perspective on the changes facing the industry and the possibilities that exist when exploring bold new collaboration between legacy traditions and new technology...

After reading Reconciled, individuals will have a better understanding about mankind and see that we have done a lot of wrong. If you look at all the destruction man has visited upon this earth, the author believes we have to destroy man not like he was created by God, but by our monetary system. If we are able to change that system, Karel Van Canegem-Ardijns is certain we can end poverty as well. Do not mistake this book to be written from a religious standpoint. The author makes it clear that religion has been responsible for the most hateful acts invented by the human mind....

Was the president's path to the white house, pre-determined? When you take all the pieces of the puzzle and put it together, a very interesting picture reveals itself. This updated and corrected e-Book explores the 44th president's "other" side of the famiy. The 44th president is a direct decedent of the Luo Tribe in Africa. This is a tribe, according to documented history, which is a part of the Nilotic group of tribes, and dates back to 3000 BC. Most of this information is attainable on Wikipedia for everyone to view. The information which is NOT realized by many people is also included. The path to the White House starts with the Obama family grandfather, who had political ties to England. The book then explores the occurrences in America which resulted in Obama Sr. returning to Afr...

2:46: Aftershocks: Stories from the Japan Earthquake
In just over a week, a group of unpaid professional and citizen journalists who met on Twitter created a book to raise money for Japanese Red Cross earthquake and tsunami relief efforts. In addition to essays, artwork and photographs submitted by people around the world, including people who endured the disaster and journalists who covered it, 2:46: Aftershocks: Stories from the Japan Earthquake contains a piece by Yoko Ono, and work created specifically for the book by authors William Gibson, Barry Eisler and Jake Adelstein. “The primary goal,” says the book's editor, a British resident of Japan, “is to record the moment, and in doing so raise money for the Japanese Red Cross Society to help the thousands of homeless, hungry and cold survivors of the earthquake and tsunami.

Believe in America: Mitt Romney's Plan for Jobs and Economic Growth
Mitt Romney will rebuild the foundations of the American economy on the principles of free enterprise, hard work, and innovation. His plan emphasizes critical structural adjustments rather than short-term fixes. It seeks to reduce taxes, spending, regulation, and government programs. It seeks to increase trade, energy production, human capital, and labor flexibility. It relinquishes power to the states instead of claiming to have the solution to every problem. Any American living through this economic crisis will immediately recognize the severity of the break that Mitt Romney proposes from our current course. He is calling for a fundamental change in Washington's view of how economic growth and prosperity are achieved, how jobs are created, and how government can support these endeavors....
