Book Description

Olivononics (Oh-Lee-Vo-Non-Ecks) is a basic look at the philosophies of the human mind, reality, ethics, and logic to see if it’s possible for an inmate to philosophically earn an early parole through the Olivononics program. Philosophy is like a breath of fresh air that blows away all the haze that sometimes blurs our vision. Unlike psychology, philosophy looks at the conceptual questions like what is reality. Philosophy has been around for thousands of years and it’s answered thousands of questions. Now it’s time to answer the question of is it possible to get out of prison early and stay out for life. This book was written in easy to understand English and is intended to help inmates earn an early parole.

Book Description

Author bio: Francis A Olivo is an auxiliary member of the APPA, American Philosophical Practitioners Association. Book Description: Olivononics (Oh-Lee-Vo-Non-Eks) Two is a short but effective way to get into a philosopher’s way of thinking. I’ve been a philosopher for years and I’m here to tell you it makes a difference in my life. In How to Think Like a Philosopher, I’m going to look at the questions that philosophy tries to examine. In doing so I hope to help people who are thinking about taking philosophy in college get a better idea of what philosophical or critical thinking is. By the same token, it is my hope that if you a person who is unsure of what they want or how to get it, Olivononics Two: How to Think Like a Philosopher will help. Philosophy is like a breath of fresh air that blows away the haze that sometimes blurs our vision. Studying philosophy opens a new door and new possibilities for people to examine. After all, it’s been said, “Success is getting what you want, but happiness is wanting what you get.”

Book Description

Olivofonics (Oh-Lee-Vo-Fawn-Ecks) Small Business Management & Philosophy for Beginners. Small business management is nothing more than philosophies. It covers business ethics, business reality, marketing philosophies, logic, and much more. As individuals, the only thing that we own is our beliefs. If you believe something to be true, you consider it to be your knowledge. If, however, you don't believe something to be true, you have very little knowledge of it. So knowledge is power, but only if you believe it to be true. If one side of the coin says, "Man has no guarantees in life," then it's safe to assume that the opposite side of the coin guarantees man one thing, "No individual can live forever." Yet, people flip the coin every day. Even though I cannot offer you any guarantees, we already have our guarantee. Let me say that if you believe the philosophies in this book, then my philosophies will become your knowledge. If, however, you don't believe the philosophies in this book, you'll have very little knowledge of small business management. Regards, Frank.

Book Description

Here is an introspective, poignant portrait of an American family during a time of sweeping changes. Now nearly sixty years after it first appeared, Suckow's finest work still displays a thorough realism in its characters' actions and aspirations; the uneasy compromises they are forced to make still ring true. Suckow's talent for retrospective analysis comes to life as she examines her own people—Iowans, descendants of early settlers—through the lives of the Ferguson family, living in the fictional small town of Belmond, Iowa. Using her gift of creating three-dimensional, living characters, Suckow focuses on personal differences within the family and each member's separate struggle to make sense of past and present, to confront a pervasive sense of loss as a way of life disappears.

Book Description

From 1945 to 1950, the United States returned 178,000 dead American servicemen back home and reburied another 80,000 in overseas cemeteries at their families' request. Never before had a nation returned so many of its fallen warriors from distant battlefields. But another 78,000 servicemen were missing in action, their bodies never to be found, their families never to know the peace of closure. Safely Restrecalls this virtually forgotten episode of WWII through the recollections of the survivors and the letters and histories of the dead themselves. It tells of those who struggled to absorb their loss and rebuild their lives-and of those who would never be able to move on. Most memorably, it tells of Lt. Jesse D. "Red" Franks, Jr.--first reported missing, then dead, then alive-and of his extraordinarily devoted father, who gave up everything to work as a missionary in war-torn Europe for years until he discovered what truly happened to his son. If World War II was the "Great Crusade," then its dead are the true heroes of the war. And this is their story.
