The part of christianity that is slowly fading away from our practices, is once again made fresh here. Willard, carefully and exhaustively discusses the way and importance of living like HE lived. This is a great tool for personal growth and Transformation.

(Language: English)
For you thinking about owning your own production line, but not yet convinced that its worthy quiting you current salary job, this is the book. Though at some points Kiyosaki seem a bit too idealistic but surely he hits the point. Financial literacy is irreplaceable, wheter employed or not.

(Language: English)
"All animals are equal but some r more equal than others".. so goes one of the unforgetable lines in this story. to me this seems to be the theme on which this book runs right from the start. The animals, collectively tired and sick of unchecked oppression from their owner(head) agree to carry out what turns out to b a successful coup. Things turn out wonderful and a bright, happilly ever after is anticipated on the farm under the independent, seemingly democratic leadership of the animals themselves. however this wont last, before one of the revolutionalists, gets tired of socialistic kind of governance on the farm. As the story unfolds, he assumes all the dominance in what can seen as a second coup on the farm. By the end of the story we seem to have sailed back to the days of old Jones only this time under Napoleon. To an African like me, this book is more than a fairy tale, but a reality show. I have grown up on a continent, where revolutionalists come cursing the old regimes(of which on many occasions they have bn part) promising a milk and honey flowing future, only to turn into tyrants, wealth hungry wolves, persecuting anyone who dare say a word against them. After a time someone comes up with a coup against them and the cycle starts again. But for how long will Africans suffer in this cycle, its time to wake up. A call for african leaders, this is no way to go. We r tired
