Not every “Complete Ethiopian Bible in English” is what it claims to be. As new editions flood the market—some presenting unverified or AI-generated translations as authentic Ethiopian Scripture—the Ultimate Ethiopian Bible offers something different: a carefully researched, modern-English collection rooted in the genuine scriptural tradition of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church. Because the Ethiopian Bible was never formally fixed by a single, universally binding canon decree, claims of one definitive “complete” canon can be misleading. This massive edition brings together 88 complete, unabridged books in print, including the Holy Bible, authentic Ethiopian Meqabyan, Enoch, and other apocrypha, while clearly expanding beyond the Ethiopian tradition with Acts 29 and 2 and 3 Enoch. Plus, access thousands of additional books of apocrypha, hundreds of videos, and hundreds of hours of audiobooks in the included digital library. The Ultimate Ethiopian Bible includes: * 88 books in print, including the complete Old and New Testaments, whereas most other collections include only 22 apocryphal books in print * Literally thousands of apocryphal books via digital access, vastly exceeding all other collections * Superior 10-pt print, comparable to most study Bibles, that is professionally typeset, whereas other collections use tiny, hard-to-read font with unprofessional typesetting * In easy-to-read English with accurate and consistent formal equivalent translation throughout, whereas other collections use archaic public domain material that is mismatched, incomplete, and unprofessionally sourced * Hundreds of professionally-collated videos that you can access with your mobile device while you read * Hundreds of hours of audio via the Ultimate Ethiopian Bible audiobook included with the digital library * Includes the only fully revised and updated modern English versions of 1, 2, and 3 Meqabyan, Enoch, and others (books unique to the Ethiopian canon), that are either excluded from other collections or included in non-standard English; also includes digital versions of Jubilees, Josippon, and the Paralipomena of Jeremiah * Tons of exciting extras including charts, maps, apologetics, book intros, a glossary, and much more There are now dozens of Ethiopian Bible options available, but how can you choose the right one? Look no further. With the Ultimate Ethiopian Bible in English, you get the complete Old Testament, New Testament, and 22 additional books in print, including all three of the genuine books of Meqabyan and all three books of Enoch, whereas many other options give you only 22 apocryphal books in print and everything else via digital download. Other options also give you mismatched, incomplete, or AI-generated material that is hard to read and unprofessionally collated. Don't settle for less. With this comprehensive collection, you get 88 books in print with a copious, easy-to-read font. Via digital download, you also have access to thousands of additional apocryphal books, greatly surpassing every other option available, both in number and in formatting, readability, and ease of use. Also gain access to hundreds of hours of audio and hundreds of videos that you can watch while you read, professionally selected and collated. Professionally designed and typeset: * Elegant, easy-to-read, 10-point typeface * High-quality, crème paper for an antique feel and minimum bleed-through * Handsome hardcover with matte finish and gold filigree design * Easy-to-read modern English translation * Literal and word-for-word * Fully versified with easy navigation * Professional, triple-column, line-matched layout

The Southwyck Mall was the shopping hub in the South Toledo area during the 1980’s and 90’s. Kids visited Hobby Center Toys and Old Towne, families ate at Big Boy, Forum Cafe, Hot Sam’s, and Orange Julius.

Gathering almost 400 vintage images, the original floor map and the history of every store through the 1980’s, author Chris Bores delivers another trip down memory lane with long lost histories of each business unearthed from the early days of Toledo’s historic Southwyck Mall.

Vital and indispensable, this HarperBusiness Essentials edition of The Intelligent Investor is the most important book you will ever read on how to reach your financial goals.
The classic history of the political and economic devastation wrought by runaway inflation in Weimar Germany—“brilliant” (Guardian) In 1923, with its currency effectively worthless (the exchange rate in December of that year was one dollar to 4,200,000,000,000 marks), the German republic was all but reduced to a barter economy. Expensive cigars, artworks, and jewels were routinely exchanged for staples such as bread; a cinema ticket could be bought for a lump of coal; and a bottle of paraffin for a silk shirt. People watched helplessly as their life savings disappeared and their loved ones starved. Germany's finances descended into chaos, with severe social unrest in its wake. Money may no longer be physically printed and distributed in the voluminous quantities of 1923. However, "quantitative easing," that modern euphemism for surreptitious deficit financing in an electronic era, can no less become an assault on monetary discipline. Whatever the reason for a country's deficit— necessity or profligacy, unwillingness to tax or blindness to expenditure—it is beguiling to suppose that if the day of reckoning is postponed economic recovery will come in time to prevent higher unemployment or deeper recession. What if it does not? Germany in 1923 provides a vivid, compelling, sobering moral tale.

A Progressive's Case for Bitcoin is for everyone who is starting to learn about Bitcoin and wants to understand the reality behind the buzz. Exploring the value proposition of Bitcoin through a progressive lens, Maier's book explores why Bitcoin is good for the environment, how it helps poor and marginalized communities, and why Bitcoin serves as a protest against too-big-to-fail banks: all the people-centric reasons Bitcoin was created in the first place. This inspirational read, which requires no background knowledge, is a great starting point for anyone who is curious about Bitcoin beyond the boundaries of western privilege, clickbait headlines, and social media chatter. “Jason’s book is outstanding, and fills a niche that has been seriously underserved until now —a treatise on Bitcoin for progressives. He thoughtfully walks the reader through the shortcomings of the current financial system and the benefits that Bitcoin can bring to people around the world.” —Lyn Alden, Macro Economist and Investor “In A Progressive’s Case for Bitcoin, Jason offers an uncommon perspective of how Bitcoin can be used as a tool for progressive social change. Through a combination of introspection and real-world case studies, Jason explores how Bitcoin can help to empower marginalized communities including the unbanked, those affected by hyperinflation and more.” —Lamar Wilson, Founder, Black Bitcoin Billionaire “A Progressive's Case for Bitcoin offers a refreshing perspective on Bitcoin particularly suited for a more liberal voter. Maier writes with humility and clarity inviting even the most ardent Bitcoin critics to question their assumptions. It is one of the best books written on Bitcoin.” —Dr. Mark Stephany, Physician and Host of The Progressive Bitcoiner “—If you care about the environment, human rights, or equality, you need to read this book and share it with everyone you know who considers themselves to be a progressive. This is a must read book!” —Dennis Porter, Co-Founder and CEO of the Satoshi Action Fund “Jason Maier has written what may be the most consequential Bitcoin book to date. In our historical moment, everything is politicized, often before it is even understood. So it is with Bitcoin, a technology attacked by many on the political left and embraced by those on the right, but which is actually nothing more than a few hundred lines of code. The social, political, economic, and environmental consequences of Bitcoin have hardly been thought through. Maier shows how Bitcoin—yes, Bitcoin!--actually aligns with the deepest values of progressives and serves their highest goals, most surprisingly, aiding the fight against climate change." “Reading this book, you realize that humanity is on the verge of a devastating mistake. Progressives have always pointed out injustices and critiqued systems of privilege. Yet, in a brilliant PR campaign, those very systems have enlisted progressives to protect themselves from being reformed or disrupted by an upstart technology. Maier’s book is a desperately needed corrective. He explains Bitcoin like a veteran teacher, breezes through arguments in a conversational style, yet his careful reasoning reminds you he is a mathematician. Open-minded progressives, and maybe even close-minded ones, will have to rethink their opinions on the possibilities and promise of neutral, digital money.” —Troy Cross, Environmentalist and Professor of Philosophy, Reed College C. Jason Maier is a teacher of mathematics with a personal conviction about how Bitcoin will reshape the world. More of Jason's writing can be found at www.bitcoinmagazine.com

#1 GLOBAL BESTSELLER WITH MORE THAN 8 MILLION COPIES SOLD • Meet Elizabeth Zott: “a gifted research chemist, absurdly self-assured and immune to social convention” (The Washington Post) in 1960s California whose career takes a detour when she becomes the unlikely star of a beloved TV cooking show. • STREAM ON APPLE TV+ This novel is “irresistible, satisfying and full of fuel” (The New York Times Book Review) and “witty, sometimes hilarious...the Catch-22 of early feminism” (Stephen King, via Twitter). A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: The New York Times, Washington Post, NPR, Oprah Daily, Entertainment Weekly, Newsweek Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it’s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel–prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results. But like science, life is unpredictable. Which is why a few years later Elizabeth Zott finds herself not only a single mother, but the reluctant star of America’s most beloved cooking show Supper at Six. Elizabeth’s unusual approach to cooking (“combine one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodium chloride”) proves revolutionary. But as her following grows, not everyone is happy. Because as it turns out, Elizabeth Zott isn’t just teaching women to cook. She’s daring them to change the status quo. Laugh-out-loud funny, shrewdly observant, and studded with a dazzling cast of supporting characters, Lessons in Chemistry is as original and vibrant as its protagonist.
From a former senior advisor to Senator John McCain comes an urgent wake-up call about how new technologies are threatening America's military might. For generations of Americans, our country has been the world's dominant military power. How the US military fights, and the systems and weapons that it fights with, have been uncontested. That old reality, however, is rapidly deteriorating. America's traditional sources of power are eroding amid the emergence of new technologies and the growing military threat posed by rivals such as China. America is at grave risk of losing a future war. As Christian Brose reveals in this urgent wake-up call, the future will be defined by artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, and other emerging technologies that are revolutionizing global industries and are now poised to overturn the model of American defense. This fascinating, if disturbing, book confronts the existential risks on the horizon, charting a way for America's military to adapt and succeed with new thinking as well as new technology. America must build a battle network of systems that enables people to rapidly understand threats, make decisions, and take military actions, the process known as "the kill chain." Examining threats from China, Russia, and elsewhere, The Kill Chain offers hope and, ultimately, insights on how America can apply advanced technologies to prevent war, deter aggression, and maintain peace
