Anansi's Gold is a non-fiction masterpiece that tells the story of Ghanaian con artist John Ackah Blay-Miezah, who swindled millions of dollars from thousands of believers. After Ghana gained independence in 1957, a CIA-funded military junta falsely accused Nkrumah of hiding Ghana's gold overseas. Blay-Miezah and his accomplices deceived Philadelphia lawyers, London financiers, and Seoul businessmen, earning him the title of one of the most fascinating and lucrative scams in modern history. Yepoka Yeebo follows Blay-Miezah's trail and uncovers the truth about Ghana's missing wealth, revealing how history writes itself into being through one lie at a time.

    12 Habits That Damage Your Brain...

    Cognitive health is often overlooked until it begins to decline. In a world that is rapidly changing, we can easily forget how fragile our brains truly are. From the way we process information to our ability to recall memories, brain health affects every part of our daily lives. Yet, many of us unknowingly engage in habits that can damage our cognitive function over time. These seemingly harmless behaviors can lead to a range of mental health problems, including memory loss, mental fog, and even conditions like dementia. The good news is that by understanding how certain habits affect the brain, we can take steps to protect and improve our cognitive health. 
      
    The human brain is one of the most complex organs in the body. It is responsible for our thoughts, emotions, movements, and even the way we perceive the world around us. Despite its remarkable abilities, the brain is vulnerable to both internal and external factors that can have lasting consequences on its function. The habits we form daily play a crucial role in determining how well our brain performs. Even if we don’t feel immediate effects, bad habits can accumulate over time, leading to irreversible damage. 
      
    In this book, we explore twelve common habits that can harm cognitive health. These behaviors might seem harmless or even routine, but their impact on the brain can be far-reaching. From lack of sleep and chronic stress to poor dietary choices and sedentary living, many of these habits are all too familiar. However, understanding how these habits affect the brain is the first step in taking control of our mental health. Once we recognize the problem, we can implement strategies to protect our brain from further harm.

    Sparky Reardon — who dedicated 36 years to his alma mater, the University of Mississippi — was a witness to the best, and worst, of times at Ole Miss. Reardon engaged with every facet of campus life, navigating the wild and unpredictable situations sparked by students (and, at times, by visitors). Reardon found himself in the midst of campus crises where he facilitated the university family through tragedy and loss (some involved student casualties); he navigated intricate battles for freedom of expression on campus (including confrontations with the Ku Klux Klan and loony street preachers); he gently guided students (and sometimes administrators and politicians) through complex judicial issues; and he had a rare, insider’s view of the evolution of Oxford, Mississippi, from a quiet college town to a vibrant cultural hub. In The Dean, Sparky lays bare the joys and hardships of what he describes as “the best job in America.” In 1968, Reardon enrolled at Ole Miss with an eye on law school. Two years later, his plans shifted. Summoned to the dean’s office to account for his role as social chairman in breaking university rules, Reardon experienced a pivotal moment of clarity. As Reardon remembered, “It might have been the result of one of our parties running too late or getting too loud, or perhaps there was a chance that beer was involved.” He realized that someone, someday, would need to take this man’s place. Reardon left that meeting determined to become the dean of students at Ole Miss.  Raised in Clarksdale, Mississippi, a young Sparky Reardon turned to books after a severe knee injury ended his sports days. Guided by inspiring teachers, he cultivated a passion for writing. Artist and author William Dunlap said, “Sparky Reardon’s The Dean is anecdotally rich and beautifully written. His prose — which soars — is once again proof that language is a Southerner’s birth

    The First Book on Recruiting...

    In this book I talk about my journey from freelance recruiter to the head of my own agency, share my checklists and tell you why I focus on professionalism rather than making money. If you follow this path with me in the book, you will learn what principles the recruitment guru professes, and you will be able to use my insights and experience to create your own start-up. There are two checklists waiting for you in the appendix at the end of the book. However, no successful entrepreneur (even if they claim otherwise) can pack the secret of their triumph into a case study. Success cannot be turned into a science because... everyone is different. It's as simple as that. Different company employees, different clients, different days of the year. My task is to inspire you and help you organize your actions on the road to success by suggesting obvious moves.  Over the years, I have built up a unique wealth of experience and knowledge which I would like to share with you. I do the bookkeeping, the paperwork, working with clients, responding to enquiries with quotations, and managing the company. I recently started a series of interviews with renowned experts to impart my professional experience not only to myself, but also to my partners and teachers. Today ADS has been on the market for 7 years, and we continue to improve our skills daily.  No one has ever written a book on recruiting research respondents. This one is the first. I see this book as a methodological guide for work related to recruiting research respondents and as a source of inspiration for those who are still dreaming of their own business. You can also learn from the book how not to recruit respondents. I also have a simple desire to help entrepreneurs and professionals in the field of research, branding and customer experience to understand that recruiting respondents is the most important part of research. And customer experience research is the key to a company's success in the marketplace.  Respondent recruitment is the mechanism by which we find research participants. Quality recruitment ensures that the research results are buyer-oriented, which means that a product (or an updated version of it) will come to market that will be in demand. Until recently, there has been little hope for recruitment, the value of this research tool has too often been ignored. My experience is that the right respondent is the right output data and a brilliant product decision and, as a result, the product's market leadership.  As soon as I found myself in recruitment, I realised that this was my vocation and this was where I wanted to grow and develop. This feeling led me and I enjoyed delving into all the intricacies, constantly striving for excellence. Every day I am growing as a professional and discovering new things. I used to manage 30 projects at the same time. Today I have automated many parallel processes, which has increased the quality and speed of our services. I have been able to free up time that had been wasted on mechanical operations to be able to think and observe. As I have changed, the market has transformed with me. Soon after founding ADS, competitors began to enter the market and the competition with them became an additional motivation to move forward.  With every word of this book, I want to convey how important it is to do what you like without looking back at others and to improve in your chosen direction. I will try to demonstrate by example how important it is to find your niche and stick to your chosen path, without turning off the beaten track, no matter how tempting it may be for the unsophisticated starter. Of course, after a few years of working in one place, burnout may set in. However, it is possible to get through it if you realise in your head that you are working for your vocation, and discovering new facets and opportunities will allow you to get a second wind and reach new levels of professionalism.
