Hello! I joined this group today. I would like to have your opinion about "The Alpha Centauri Project (Thnking worlds)", a novel I wrote. You can find some chapters at http://weread.com/authors/ireadhome/101122924 or alternatively in my Squidoo web site http://www.squidoo.com/science_fiction_the_alpha_centauri_project_thinking_worlds Thank you!
Elizabeth, I just joined as well. Amazing, but my favorite book is Shadow of the Wind as well, that is, until I read The Angel's Game by Zafon. Have you read that one yet?
In a system every one should get maximum benefits out of governance, that is every individual’s right. This should be the philosophy of governance. The functioning of the government should resemble that of a human body, a total co-ordination of every selfless organ. Philosophy and empty promises will not fill an empty stomach, but following through on the promises of satisfaction shall be a fulfilling food. False propaganda will not bear fruit, but ploughed land and hard work will garnish enough crops to feed the masses. Rights cannot be harvested unless the sense of duty is dutifully invested. Unless the sense of responsibility is honored the holiness of right is an empty promise. In the place it is honored there is prosperity, where there is not, it is a barren land.
