Summary

Capital by Karl Marx is a foundational theoretical text in materialist philosophy, economics and politics. Marx aimed to reveal the economic patterns underpinning the capitalist mode of production, in contrast to classical political economists such as Adam Smith, Jean-Baptiste Say, David Ricardo and John Stuart Mill. Marx did not live to publish the planned second and third parts, but they were both completed from his notes and published after his death by his colleague Friedrich Engels. Capital is the most cited book in the social sciences published before 1950. The Communist Manifesto (originally Manifesto of the Communist Party) is an 1848 political pamphlet by German philosophers Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Commissioned by the Communist League and originally published in London just as the revolutions of 1848 began to erupt, the Manifesto was later recognised as one of the world's most influential political documents. Wage Labour and Capital is an essay on economics by Karl Marx, written in 1847 and first published in articles in the Neue Rheinische Zeitung in April 1849. This essay has been widely acclaimed as the precursor to Marx's important treatise Das Kapital. Value, Price and Profit was a speech given to the First International Working Men's Association in June in 1865 by Karl Marx. It was written between the end of May and June 27 in 1865, and was published in 1898. Karl Marx (1818–1883) was a famous German philosopher, economist, historian, political theorist, sociologist, journalist and revolutionary socialist.

ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
"Lover Unbound" by J.R. Ward tells the story of Vishous, a member of the Black Dagger Brotherhood, who is forced into an arranged mating with a Chosen female. The Brotherhood, a group of vampire warriors, are tasked with protecting their species from the Lessening Society. V., as he is called, struggles with his role as the Primale, a term that refers to his function as a sperm donor, and his feelings for a human doctor named Jane. The novel explores themes of duty versus desire, as V. grapples with his responsibility to his people and his growing connection to Jane. The book also delves into the complexities of relationships and the bonds of brotherhood, as V. relies on his fellow warriors for support and guidance. It also introduces the mystical world of the vampires, their origins and their unique powers, as well as the presence of a mystical figure called the Scribe Virgin. In the midst of this, the narrative explores his own internal struggles, including his dark past.

    The etymology of the word fail is derived from the French word faillir, which means “almost to do.” Faillir is derived from the Latin word fallere, which means to deceive or lead into error. These definitions imply that when people fail, they do not follow through with their intentions, and those who believed that they would be in some way deceived. 
People who experience failure can feel a sense of shame. This emotional response can cause them to suppress their feelings, deflect the responsibility of the failure, neglect to learn from the valuable lessons, and thwart the possibility for future success. 
As Winston Churchill so eloquently said, “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.”
