This is a thriller which traces the history of the Stevens family from 1916 to 2020, covering four generations. What is so unusual about this family is that they are all special intelligence operatives and serve in an ultra-secret unit answering to senior military officers appointed directly by the King. In each generation, the eldest son is selected to carry on the tradition when he reaches the age of 21 years.The operatives are highly-trained as intelligence agents, and their role is to act as judge, jury and executioner of the targets selected. The targets are men and women who have been engaged in treasonous activities or conducting espionage for a foreign power, but the agent has been given the discretion to satisfy himself that the charges are justified before he executes the offender.Voir livre
This is a bundle of 5 books, which are the following: · Children's Rights: Children represent the future of our societies, yet they remain among the most vulnerable and marginalized populations worldwide. The protection of children's rights has become one of the most critical global issues in the 21st century, demanding urgent attention and action. · Human Trafficking: Human trafficking is one of the gravest human rights abuses of our time, affecting millions of individuals across the globe. It is a hidden yet pervasive crime that exploits people for labor, sex, and other forms of servitude. · Organ Harvesting: Organ harvesting represents one of the most pressing and disturbing ethical challenges of our time. This practice involves the removal of organs from individuals, often without consent, for transplantation or sale on the black market. While organ transplantation has revolutionized modern medicine, saving countless lives, the dark underbelly of the industry reveals a stark contrast—one where human rights are systematically violated, and vulnerable populations are exploited. · Sexism: Sexism, a deeply entrenched social issue, has been pervasive throughout human history, shaping the experiences of individuals and communities across the globe. At its core, sexism refers to the belief that one gender is superior to another, typically manifesting in the unequal treatment and opportunities given to individuals based on their gender. · Racism: Racism has been a persistent and destructive force throughout human history, shaping societies, cultures, and institutions in ways that continue to reverberate today. It manifests in myriad forms—through prejudice, discrimination, systemic inequities, and violence—targeting individuals and groups based on their race or ethnicity.Voir livre

A herd of bison standing in the snow. Layered bluffs of multicolored sandstone. A silver Airstream trailer on a mountain highway. These are familiar sights for Neil Mathison and his wife, Susan. Newly retired, their son in college, they embark upon a great American road trip "uncoupled from the tyranny of calendars or a specific journey." Airstream Country recounts their travels across the western United States as they move from Montana to Malibu and Seattle to Silverton, winding their way through millions of years of geological history with their Airstream in tow. Along the way they encounter upheavals and depositions, ancient seas and young mountains, and stone towers and striated canyons, which are all illuminated by Mathison's knowledgeable commentary. Even after thousands of miles and eons of geology, their adventures are never finished, for, as Mathison writes, "We learn by travel where we ought to travel more."Voir livre
Brazil is the fifth-largest country in the world, both in terms of land area and population. Its geographical diversity is staggering, stretching across the continent of South America and featuring a wide range of ecosystems, from the vast Amazon rainforest to the arid Sertão of the Northeast. The country’s geography is a crucial part of its identity, influencing the development of its people, culture, and economy. From the dense forests and sprawling wetlands to the mountainous regions and extensive coastline, Brazil’s landforms have played a significant role in shaping its history and societal structure. The Amazon rainforest, often referred to as the "lungs of the Earth," is perhaps the most famous of Brazil’s natural wonders. Covering roughly 60% of Brazil’s territory, the Amazon Basin is home to an immense variety of plant and animal species, many of which are found nowhere else on Earth. The region is not only rich in biodiversity but also plays a pivotal role in regulating the global climate. However, the Amazon has also faced threats over the years, including deforestation, land conversion for agriculture, and illegal mining, leading to ongoing debates over conservation and development. Brazil’s coastline, stretching over 7,000 kilometers, is another defining feature of its geography. Major cities like Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo sit along this coast, benefiting from access to international trade routes and abundant natural resources. The coastline also plays a crucial role in the cultural identity of the country, with Brazil’s famous beach culture, music, and cuisine often reflecting the coastal way of life. These cities and others in the coastal region became centers of economic activity during the colonial period and continue to be important hubs of commerce and industry.Voir livre
