  Friars and Filipinos is a critical and satirical essay in which José Rizal examines the deep-rooted influence of the Spanish colonial friars on Philippine society and governance. Written in response to an article by a Spanish writer, Rizal systematically critiques the hypocrisy, greed, and abuses of power committed by the religious orders, exposing how they manipulated both faith and politics to maintain control over the Filipino people. He contrasts their corruption with the dignity, intelligence, and potential of the Filipino native, advocating for justice, reform, and national consciousness. With clarity and passion, Rizal calls for an end to clerical dominance and the recognition of Filipino rights. This essay stands as a powerful indictment of colonial oppression and a vital piece of the intellectual foundation for Philippine nationalism.

  Many never find happiness at work. Will you? 
  Why are so many people unhappy at work, if they choose the work they do? After teaching as a professor at the New York University Leonard N. Stern School of Business, The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, and Ivey Business School in Canada, Bryan Hong shares his observations based on hundreds of conversations with his students before and after graduation. 
  Although many don't realize it, unhappiness at work is a consequence of the way we've designed our society, especially our education system. Rather than prepare us for genuine success and happiness in life, most of us are never told what we need to know to answer even our most basic life questions. In this book, Dr. Hong shares what everyone who wants to be happier at work-and in life-should know. The first step begins with the most important lesson so many of us never learn in school: We must evolve to our true purpose. 
  In this book, the author explores:How our society works to shape us in ways that will never lead to happiness at workWhat it truly means to have a strong sense of purpose at work, and why we all need it for a life beyond survival and pleasureHow we can evolve to purpose in a world where so many work without it 
  What if there was much more to your life than what you've been told?

  Hereafter - The Telling Life of...

  A lyrical portrait of a young Irish woman reinventing herself at the turn of the twentieth century in America. 
   
   
   
  In July 1882, Ellen O'Hara stepped off a ship from the West of Ireland to begin a new life in New York. What she encountered was a world of casual racial prejudice that characterized her as ignorant, dirty, and feckless, the butt of many jokes. From the slim range of jobs available to her she, like, many of her kind, found a position as a domestic servant, working long hours and living in to save on rent and keep. After an unfortunate marriage, Ellen determined to win financial security on her own, and eventually opened a boarding house where her two children were able to rejoin her. 
   
   
   
  Vona Groarke builds this story from historical fact, drawing from various archives for evidence of Ellen. However, she also considers why lives such as Ellen's seem to leave such a light trace in such records and fills in the gaps with memory and empathetic projection. Ellen—scrappy, skeptical, and straight-talking—is the heroine of Hereafter, whose resilience animates the story and whose voice shines through with vivid clarity. Hereafter is both a compelling account of an incredible figure and a reflection on how one woman's story can speak for more than one life.
