Pearl and Bessie - A baby...

Julia Bishop, Andy Bull

On the rubbish dump, a baby cried.  
The cry was weak, and fading. The wild dogs had picked up the cries, and the scent, and were circling, closing in. 
Bessie walked towards the sound and found a day-old baby girl. She had been abandoned because of her sex. It happened often here, in south west China. 
If Bessie did nothing, the baby would be torn to pieces. So she picked her up, carried her to safety, and later adopted her. Yet, in saving her life, did Bessie condemn the baby she named Pearl to a life of fear and persecution? 
This is Pearl’s story, and that of Bessie, plus Alf – Bessie’s then fiancé, later husband – and John, a second Han Chinese child the couple adopted. 
Bessie and Alf were Methodists missionaries in Yunnan province, China, in the first half of the twentieth century. They lived through momentous times, including the Japanese occupation, the Second World War, the civil war, the Communist takeover and the Cultural Revolution. 
This book follows their personal stories against the backdrop of a turbulent century.

Africa on the Precipice - The...

Nnamdi Chiekwu

Africa on the Precipice (ATP) provides commentary on global geopolitics, economics, and world history, using African interests as a lens to give a different perspective on world events. The book specifically explores how and why Africa has not fared well in the ‘battle of civilizations’ (or global geopolitics) from the 15th century until present times. ATP also presents a bold blueprint to make African countries dominant on the international stage through an ideology originated by the author called ‘Afro-Hegemonism’.  
ATP sounds the alarm for African countries that they must undergo transformational socioeconomic restructuring by 2030. The consequence of not doing so, will see Africans continue to be a global underclass in a geopolitical landscape that is quickly evolving. Moreover, the ultimate price for not embracing revolutionary change now, could see Africans permanently lose their sovereignty, treasure, and freedom in the 21st century.
