Sinossi

'Bill Gates' Tech Legacy' chronicles the remarkable journey of a visionary who transformed the computing landscape by turning his dream of universal computer access into reality. This comprehensive exploration follows Gates' evolution from a young software enthusiast to Microsoft's leader and eventually a global philanthropist, highlighting how his business decisions and technical insights revolutionized the software industry.

 
The book skillfully weaves together three primary narratives: Gates' early recognition of software's commercial value, his strategic development of Microsoft, and his transition to philanthropy. Beginning in the 1970s mainframe era, readers witness the paradigm shift that occurred when Gates challenged the prevailing notion of free software sharing, instead establishing a new business model that would define the industry for decades to come.

 
Through carefully researched evidence, including internal Microsoft documents and industry interviews, the narrative illuminates crucial moments like the IBM partnership, the development of MS-DOS, and the transformative release of Windows. Moving chronologically through Gates' career, the book examines how his leadership influenced not just technology but also corporate management practices and intellectual property law. The analysis maintains an objective stance while exploring both achievements and controversies, including Microsoft's antitrust challenges.

 
What sets this book apart is its balanced approach to technical content, making complex concepts accessible to general readers while offering sufficient depth for technology professionals. This thorough examination concludes with Gates' philanthropic work, demonstrating how his problem-solving approach extended from software to global health initiatives.

    Tolkien For Beginners will introduce the reader to the multilayered depth and breadth of Tolkien’s tales of Middle-earth, what critics, following Tolkien’s lead, refer to collectively as his legendarium. J.R.R. Tolkien sweeps us away to a distant time and place that is at the same time, our own time and place. He takes us to a world where difficult choices must be made and are made, where character is defined by those choices, and where redemption is possible though not always embraced. The Lord of the Rings taps a deep root in the human psyche. There is much death, destruction, and defeat in Tolkien’s world, but there is even more friendship, courage, and hope. What one remembers when one finishes reading The Lord of the Rings is not the vice of the villains, as strong and as well drawn as it is, but the virtue that empowers the heroes to resist it, even at the cost of their own lives.  It will be the goal of Tolkien For Beginners to introduce the reader to the multilayered depth and breadth of Tolkien’s tales of Middle-earth. To do justice to the full dimensions of that legendarium, author Louis Markos will speak in two voices: that of the storyteller who loves the stories he tells and that of the critic who seeks to identify and explicate key themes from those stories. In his telling and analysis, he will treat the legendarium both as a collection of secondary-world myths with their own integrity and as a reflection of Tolkien’s Catholic worldview.

    Twenty-four + One: A Mother’s Story of Faith, Love and Miracles is a heartfelt memoir chronicling the powerful journey of Ash Ruddy, a mother whose strength and faith were forged in the fires of uncertainty and fear. At just twenty-four weeks and one day into her pregnancy, Ash faced delivering her son, Michael. What began as a medical emergency quickly unfolded into a life-altering spiritual journey. 
    As Ash battles the emotional and physical trials of extreme prematurity, she finds herself leaning into something greater than medicine or human strength—her growing relationship with Jesus Christ. Through late nights filled with prayer, moments of doubt met with grace, and quiet miracles that affirmed her hope, Ash learns what it means to trust fully in God’s plan. 
    This deeply personal account explores the intersection of motherhood and faith, as Ash walks through every appointment, every complication, and every answered and unanswered prayer with vulnerability and resilience. Twenty-four + One is not just the story of a mother fighting for her child’s life—it is the story of a woman transformed by the love of Christ. 
    With each chapter, readers witness Ash’s evolving faith, her unwavering love for her son, and the miracles—big and small—that led her closer to her Savior. It’s a testimony to the power of God’s presence in life’s darkest valleys, and a tribute to the miracles that happen when we surrender to His will. 
    Both inspiring and deeply moving, Twenty-four + One is a testament to the strength of a mother’s love, the beauty of unwavering faith, and the grace that carries us when we can no longer carry ourselves.

    Paul Whitehouse and fishing expert John Bailey celebrate the timeless joy of fishing. 
    Paul Whitehouse and John Bailey have been devout fishermen for longer than they care to remember. A hobby, past time or sport – call it what you want – they have felt the pull of the water ever since they were kids and have never missed the chance to set up on the bank and try their luck. 
    In this wonderful book, the two fishermen collaborate to celebrate the rich tapestry that is fishing – from mentors to memories; from philosophy to modern jargon; from watercraft to becoming self-styled ‘Fishing Detectives’. Punctuated by brilliant stories, beautiful illustrations by Carys Reilly-Whitehouse, and recollections from fishing day trips past, How We Fish is the perfect tome for the veteran fisherman or the budding angler – warm, funny and rich in the wonders of the riverbank. 
    Paul Whitehouse's How We Fish is a top-rated non-fiction book that combines elements of autobiography, travel, and comedy. The authors love for nature and their experiences as environmentalists make this book a must-read for anyone interested in fishing or the great outdoors. 
    For fans of John Gierach (All Fishermen Are Liars), Richard Blackburn (Float Fishing), Howell Raines (Fly Fishing Through the Midlife Crisis), Bob Mortimer (Mortimer & Whitehouse), and John Moorwood (The Magic of Fishing).
