Free Download Worldmark Encyclopedia of the Nations: World Leaders, 5 Volume set (Worldmark Encyclopedia of the Nations) by Gale Group Staff,
English | November 1, 2003 | ISBN: 0787673307 | 3460 pages | PDF | 144 Mb
A companion to Worldmark Yearbook 2000, this tenth edition offers four volumes on the continents plus one on the United Nations and a new volume on world leaders. Each continent volume contains alphabetically arranged chaptersDranging from ten to 30 pagesDdescribing about 200 countries and dependencies. Each chapter contains a wide variety of information on 50 topics, including population, topography, history, government, media, and a bibliography. Especially noteworthy: some of these sections provide information not available in other geographical encyclopedias (e.g., judicial system, local government, and libraries and museums). Compiled mostly by academics, the succinctly written articles contain much current information, some of it dating from as recently as August 2000. The volume on leaders is especially useful, providing hard-to-find biographical information on lesser-known heads of state. These profiles, mostly written or updated in 2000, have been culled from a variety of print and web sources. The volume on the United Nations is a superb ready reference, describing the history and structure of U.N. agencies and including useful comparative statistical tables. A very minor quibble: the country volumes do not contain signed entries. Still, this set is an outstanding source providing reliable, comprehensive, and easily accessible information for frequently asked reference questions. The price may be steep for smaller libraries, but this is highly recommended for larger public and academic collections.

Free Download Who is Zaynab? By Hajjah Chahnaz A. Kbaisi-Hazari
2021 | 129 Pages | ISBN: 0999787799 | PDF | 2 MB
There is no doubt that women have a uniquepresence, unparalleled status, and remarkablerole in human history, despite often difficultand unfavorable circumstances that left them obscuredand exposed to different kinds of trials and difficulties.The Holy Quran has provided us with exquisite andwonderful examples of great women who played pivotaland extraordinary roles in the service of God's religion,His prophets, and His chosen ones. For example, theQuran reminds us of the mother of Musa (p), who Goddistinguished by speaking to her through a divinerevelation saying, "We inspired Musa's mother saying,'Breast-feed your son. When you become afraid for hislife, throw him into the sea. Do not be afraid or grievedfor We shall return him to you and make him amessenger'".One of the most important things that will help thecontemporary woman recover and affirm her identityas someone who can carry the responsibility placed onhumankind as inheritors of Islamic legacy and exerciseher divinely apportioned role in educating others,nurturing love and tenderness, as well as facing theinjustice, oppression, marginalization and persecutionhumanity is subjected to, is for them to work hard, dayand night, to:1. Shun ignorance and embrace awareness, knowledge,culture, and everything that is a source of success.2. Prioritize the goals and interests of life to be realisticand truly valuable, not shallow and only based onmaterial gain.3. Adhere to heavenly values of belief, behavior,action, morals, knowledge, and purification of thesoul and mind.4. Contemplate and reflect on the holy ladies whochanged history and accomplished successes thatbrought humankind from lowliness to the heightsof glory and dignity, as we see in the character ofZaynab (p).

Free Download Philip White, "Whistle Stop: How 31,000 Miles of Train Travel, 352 Speeches, and a Little Midwest Gumption Saved the Presidency of Harry Truman"
English | 2014 | ISBN: 1611684536, 1611688248 | 320 pages | EPUB | 3.6 MB
President Harry Truman was a disappointment to the Democrats, and a godsend to the Republicans. Every attempt to paint Truman with the grace, charm, and grandeur of Franklin Delano Roosevelt had been a dismal failure: Truman's virtues were simpler, plainer, more direct. The challenges he faced-stirrings of civil rights and southern resentment at home, and communist aggression and brinkmanship abroad-could not have been more critical. By the summer of 1948 the prospects of a second term for Truman looked bleak. Newspapers and popular opinion nationwide had all but anointed as president Thomas Dewey, the Republican New York Governor. Truman could not even be certain of his own party's nomination: the Democrats, still in mourning for FDR, were deeply riven, with Henry Wallace and Strom Thurmond leading breakaway Progressive and Dixiecrat factions. Finally, with ingenuity born of desperation, Truman's aides hit upon a plan: get the president in front of as many regular voters as possible, preferably in intimate settings, all across the country. To the surprise of everyone but Harry Truman, it worked. Whistle Stop is the first book of its kind: a micro-history of the summer and fall of 1948 when Truman took to the rails, crisscrossing the country from June right up to Election Day in November. The tour and the campaign culminated with the iconic image of a grinning, victorious Truman holding aloft the famous Chicago Tribune headline: "Dewey Defeats Truman."
