The Persaud Girls Four-Book Series is Launched
by BWW News Desk - October 30, 2014
Readers of the Persaud Girls four-book series can expect to experience a 'different side of Jamaican fiction' according to author Teisha Mott, who says her work focuses 'not on the familiar cultural themes, for example, of life in rural Jamaica or obeah,' but rather on love, marriage and the coming of age of four women who are not only rich but beautiful. 'I like the romance genre and have always wanted to write books that explore this area of Jamaican life. We do not produce many books of this type on the island,' says Mott. The author, who grew up in the Parish of St. Ann, says she has been an avid reader since the age of four. 'I wrote my first 'novel' at nine years old because I was frustrated with the storyline of a book I was reading at the time. I have always wanted to write books that I, and people like me, would want to read.' The four books: The Bet, Just Perfect, On Time and For Keeps, invite readers on a journey into the love lives of Andie, Samantha, Klao and Bianca Persaud. They are cousins who seem to have it all - good looks, brains, personality, and they all belong to a super rich, upper class Jamaican family. Their quest for love takes them from the Mona campus of the University of the West Indies, to Ocho Rios and New York as the author explores issues such as sexual attraction and Christianity as well as fertility and the male ego. -2- The Persaud Girls The Books The Bet (2000): Andie is the pale skinned black sheep of the Persaud family, who suddenly starts to get lots of attention from a certain popular boy on UWI campus. Does he see something special in her, or perhaps his intentions aren't exactly honourable? Just Perfect! (2003): Samantha is the 'perfect girl' - perfect hair, perfect face, perfect attitude, perfect boyfriend - until one phone call turns her perfect world upside down. On Time (2008): Klao just wants to meet Mr Right, but it is Mr. Wrong in every respect who comes into her life right 'On Time' and sets her on the right path. For Keeps (2013): Bianca wants to start a family, but when her attempts to conceive prove futile, she begins to wonder whether it is possible to love what you have when you can't get what you really want. Mott, who took a break from writing to read for a BSc in Management Studies and Economics, and an MBA in Finance and Banking at the University of the West Indies in Kingston, Jamaica, now lives and works in Paris, France. She spends her spare time reading and travelling. All titles in the Persaud Girl Series are available on amazon.com in paperback and digital format. They can also be ordered by email at persaudgirl@live.com or by telephoning 1 876 399 3109.
ALL IS GOD: MESSIAH MANIFESTO by Mark F. Kalita Launches Campaign #peaceinaweek for Worldwide Peace
by BWW News Desk - October 30, 2014
Along with the release of his new book 'All is GOD: Messiah Manifesto,' author Mark F. Kalita extends a challenge to the world to find peace in a campaign he calls, #PeaceInAWeek. Mark challenges the world to buy the books and discover these truths. #PeaceInAWeek is looking for 1000 people to read the 'Messiah Manifesto' and begin the peace process. As his new book is called 'All is GOD: Messiah Manifesto,' Mark contends in his recently published findings that by some supernatural manifestation he is the second anointed one of ancient Judaic prophecy. Yet, Mark understands that he can only give the information required for peace in the world, he cannot make the world accept it. Mark understands the power of free will is the tie that binds us all within our journey through the heavens. The message that Mark brings within the book is that the world is moving from an epoch of war, deception and greed into one of peace truth and altruistic lovingkindness, and this is the one instruction manual everyone on the earth needs to walk into the light. 'I knew long ago I had the opportunity to affect the great change in the world,' Mark continues. 'The writing was clear and the language withstood the message. My name, my birth, my heritage, my understanding and my insight seemed to approximate a character within the time untime that I could latch onto and formulate a system of peace. Not just peace within myself, rather peace worldwide that begins with an old understanding of existence and the natures of GOD, the ONE.' He urges people all over the world to give this book to their preacher, 'End Times' expert, conspiracy theorist, bible expert, or psychic friend, and let them put it through the wringers of their references. With his findings on 'End Times 5775', 'Time Untime', 'Secrets of God' and other titles, Mark is confident that the 'Messiah Manifesto' will heal the earth and move all of our family on earth to the next epoch of peace, truth and altruistic lovingkindness. The book is not just about people, the entire earth is precious and consecrated within the pages of 'All is GOD: Messiah Manifesto'. 'I am only the messenger. I cannot force anybody to read,' Mark responds to a question on the presumptuous authenticity of his book. 'The wise will understand the message within 'All is GOD: Messiah Manifesto' and attempt to make it a barrier against the divisive world at large. By living within these basic principles of peace, truth and altruistic lovingkindness, each and every one of us can affect the greatest change. I want to get it in the hands of 100,000 today and begin the road map to world peace tomorrow. Read the 'Messiah Manifesto' today, it could transform your life to love in an afternoon.' In his book 'All is GOD: Messiah Manifesto,' Mark tells of a life realization that is foreign to most. In fact, many are told to believe that the concepts Mark relates are to be feared and put asunder as evil. Yet, within 'All is GOD: Messiah Manifesto' the supernatural becomes natural and the ONE we call GOD is elevated even more. As the reader understands the true connection to the heavens all beings of the earth share, knowledge of the ONE gives way to peace of mind and of a blessed life. 'My findings in 'End Times 5775' woke me up to the stark reality that God, the supernatural and our true spiritual nature is 100% for real,' Mark instructs. 'I have shown people in my life wonders and what would be 'miracles' to some. Healed, foretold, or simply knowledge, yet none do listen to the wind of the three natures flowing throughout their lives. The infinite ONE waits for you to listen and be healed. Yet none do hear the call of trumpets. If the world needs a sign, a sign of nature you will soon receive. For, not only did I find that the Judaic year 5775 was the start of these 'End Times', but I also found the 'End Times' that Jesus walked on the earth locked inside the same prophecy of Daniel. If my findings are true, my suggestion would be to get caught up with my books and get 'All is GOD: Messiah Manifesto' as soon as possible. The sorrows draw near, I urge you to consider buying this book today.' 'I also offer this challenge to the unbelieving and skeptical ones in the world - buy the books and discover for yourself,' Mark offers. 'Give it to your preacher, 'End Times' expert, conspiracy theorist, bible expert, or psychic friend, and let them put it through the wringers of their references. I know that their wisdom will see the truth of my findings. These 'End Times' are for real and you should be taking notice too.' The book 'All is GOD: Messiah Manifesto' by Mark F. Kalita is available online and is self-published by Mark F. Kalita, available in paperback and on Kindle. It is available for $7.95 through Mark's website at http://www.KALITA.com/messiah-manifesto/, $9.95 through his publisher at https://www.createspace.com/5053250, or on Kindle for $2.99 through Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OJFOVXO
Glagoslav Releases A HISTORY OF BELARUS by Lubov Bazan
by BWW News Desk - October 30, 2014
Rare materials on Belarus are a potential treasure trove for the English language reader. A blank spot on the map for many, Belarus is an undiscovered mystery in the heart of Europe - undiscovered, because little has been published on the country's history and current affairs, and the origin of the ethnic group that calls itself 'Belarusians'. Author Lubov Bazan attempts to uplift the veil of secrecy surrounding Belarus and answer an important question of the ethnogenesis of the Belarusians. Unique in its ongoing struggle for independence, throughout its history Belarus has been deprived of this luxury by being continuously included in various state formations such as Kievan Rus', the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, the Kingdom of Poland, the Russian Empire and later the Soviet Union. 'A History of Belarus' is a thorough chronological narrative that covers major milestones of Belarus's journey into the 21st century. Lubov Bazan gives her readers plenty of leeway to form their own conclusions about the historical material presented. By incorporating different theoretical viewpoints on fundamental issues such as the ethnic background of the Belarusian people and formation of their national identity, the origins of the language, and the historically complex religious composition of the country, Bazan offers a platform for discussion.

THEOLOGY AND SOCIETY IN THREE CITIES by Mark D. Chapman Out Today
by BWW News Desk - October 30, 2014
Berlin, Oxford and Chicago were extraordinarily dynamic centres of theology during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. However, significant differences in the political climate and culture of each location bred strikingly divergent theological approaches in the universities of each city. Mark Chapman offers a highly original exploration of the subjection of their theologies to the changes and developments of educational policy and national and international politics, shedding light upon the constraints that such external factors have imposed upon the evolution of the discipline.
