The sword of wealth - A Tale of Power Greed and Unchecked Ambition in a World of Wealth and Moral Dilemmas

Henry Wilton Thomas

Sinopse

In "The Sword of Wealth," Henry Wilton Thomas masterfully explores the intricacies of affluence and its multifaceted impact on human relationships, societal values, and moral integrity. The narrative unfolds in a richly woven tapestry of character-driven prose, employing a blend of sharp irony and profound philosophical musings reminiscent of 19th-century literature. Thomas delves into the paradox of wealth as both a weapon and a tool, skillfully illustrating how the quest for riches intertwines with the intrinsic human struggle for meaning and connection in a rapidly modernizing world. Henry Wilton Thomas, an influential thinker and social critic, draws from his own experiences in a world plagued by economic disparity and moral disquiet. His background in sociology and activism provides a unique lens through which he examines the cultural significance of wealth. It is this duality'Äîboth an enabler and a destroying force'Äîthat compels him to give voice to those caught in the undertow of aspiration and greed, inviting readers to confront their own preconceptions about wealth and success. This provocative work is essential for readers seeking to confront the complexities of modern materialism. By integrating storytelling with incisive social commentary, Thomas leaves the reader with a deeper understanding of wealth's dual nature, compelling us to question the true cost of our desires and the value of genuine connection.

How to live on 24 Hours a Day...

Arnold Bennett

Arnold Bennett's classic 'Time Management' book that most certainly still rings true today as we strive to control our busy lives. 
 
We tend to value money more rather than time, in the words of Bennett…'Newspapers are full of articles explaining how to live on such-and-such a sum…but I have never seen an essay 'how to live on 24 hours a day.' Yet it has been said that time is money. That proverb understates the case. Time is a great deal more than money. If you have time, you can obtain money-usually. But…you cannot buy yourself a minute more time'. 
You will learn how to make the time you need to acquire what you want out of life and what you want to achieve. There is no magic formula just an explanation of how most people use and waste their time and he shows you another way of using time to your best advantage. 
Bennett combines his reasoned and proven methods to explain with a fair degree of humour where people go wrong and how to avoid a typical day can be altered for the better even if you have a demanding full-time job.
