Sinossi

Want to be a nurse? Find out what you're in for. Already a nurse? You can identify. All I Ever Wanted to Be Was a Nurse shares the sad, funny, terrifying, and compassionate feelings in the daily routine of a nurse's life. Looking back, I can see more clearly how God guided this nurse in her work. Each chapter is its own individual story taken from my experience in different fields of nursing. Here are a few samples, just a few, to whet your appetite: ò The impact of the car on the motorcycle sent Justin flying up into the air as the gas tank burst into flames, his body landing hard on the burning, racing bike. "No!" Justin screamed. ò "I've decided not to deliver—AND YOU CAN'T MAKE ME! ò I rushed into the street in pursuit of the beautiful, young-looking Alzheimer's patient; now we had stopped the traffic both ways. As I tried to corral her, she started to beat me up with her large, leather purse. She rushed at the waiting traffic yelling. "Help, she's trying to kidnap me!" ò "Give it to me or I'll just hold my breath and die!" I couldn't give more meds to him; surely a grown man wouldn't do such a thing. But... ò "Director of Nurses, come here!" No one but the Director of Nurses was acceptable for this former neurosurgeon. ò All I Ever Wanted to Be Was a Nurse is still true—no regrets. I hope that those who are sitting on the fence about nursing will, after reading my story, choose to be that one more nurse who will carry on!

    The Elements of Law

    Thomas Hobbes

    The Elements of Law by Thomas Hobbes is a foundational work in political philosophy that explores the nature of human behavior, the origins of society, and the necessity of structured governance. Written during a period of political unrest in seventeenth-century England, this treatise offers an early formulation of Hobbes's influential ideas about authority, order, and the conditions required for civil peace.
    
    In this work, Hobbes examines human nature through a rational and systematic lens, arguing that individuals are driven by self-interest, fear, and the desire for security. From this starting point, he develops the concept that without a governing power to enforce rules and maintain order, human life would descend into conflict and instability. This condition, often associated with a "state of nature," serves as the philosophical foundation for his later and more developed theories of sovereignty.
    
    The text is divided into sections addressing human psychology, natural rights, and the structure of political authority. Hobbes carefully builds his argument to demonstrate why individuals collectively agree—implicitly or explicitly—to form societies governed by a central authority. This authority, in turn, is tasked with preserving peace and preventing the chaos that arises from unchecked individual freedom.
    
    Written with clarity and logical precision, The Elements of Law reveals the early development of ideas that would later be fully articulated in Hobbes's more famous works. It provides essential insight into the evolution of modern political thought and the philosophical justification for state power.
    
    This work remains highly significant for students of philosophy, political theory, and intellectual history. Its exploration of human nature, governance, and social order continues to influence debates about authority, liberty, and the role of government in shaping civilized life.

    The Italians were defeated at Adwa in 1898. But by 1935, they were playing for keeps. Learn more about the devastating Italian invasion of Ethiopia. 
    Although the Ethiopians had beaten the Italians at their own game in the 1898 Battle of Adwa, when Italian armored divisions began pouring out of Italian-controlled Eritrea in 1935, the situation seemed almost impossible to overcome. This was not 1898 when the Italians were ill-equipped and ill-advised in their undertakings. The Italians had made sure they were guaranteed the upper hand. They had the best tanks and the best aircraft they could get their hands on. 
    The Ethiopians had no tanks and only a handful of old planes. Their arms were also hopelessly outdated. They were not much better than the weaponry they had used back in 1898. The Italians were determined to win this time around, and few thought the Ethiopians had much of a chance.  
    Although Ethiopian armaments left much to be desired, Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailie Selassie placed much of his hope in an international body known as the League of Nations. He ultimately had to flee his country when the Italians poured in. Selassie would continue to harangue the League of Nations from exile.  
    But what happened after this? And what exactly happened during the invasion itself? This audiobook aims to explore just that. Explore why the Italians wanted Ethiopia to begin with, and discover the story of Ethiopians who were willing to fight and die for the freedom of their country. 
    In this audiobook, you will learn:The geopolitical background before the invasionHow the invasion was planned and what it entailedThe major battles fought during the Second Italo-Ethiopian WarThe exile of Haile Selassie and how he continued to take a stand in exileWhat happened to Ethiopia
