Book Description
The Price I Paid for a Cup of Sugar is being told by a young woman locked up in a mental institution from having an emotional breakdown caused by heartbreak in her life. The Price I Paid for a Cup of Sugar is just the beginning of Ree's Chronicles, which are true events based on a little girl growing up in a big family feeling unnoticed, unloved, and unappreciated until the time she gave her life to Jesus. Ree was a lost and was a broken down young girl, who had been raped at the tender age of twelve and managed somehow to fall in love with the man who raped her and continued to have sex with her for four years after until one day she realized that it wasn't love she was in; it was a traumatic state of mind she had covered up all those years. Laying in the hospital bed at Arden Hill Behavioral Health is where God revealed to her his plan to save this woman and the reason she had gone through so much in life. One reason was out of disobedience to God and the second was so I can live to help other women survive being molested, raped, abused, heartbroken, and many other situations that some women go through in life. God told me to put it on paper, and he would do the rest. I spent seven days lying in the hospital, praying and reading God's word, asking God, "Why me?" And he said, "Just put it on paper, Ree, and I will do the rest." I didn't understand until I got home from the hospital and about 2:00 a.m. the next morning, I began to write down things, and I have not stopped-yet.

The Revolt of The Public and the Crisis of Authority in the New Millennium
Author: Martin Gurri
Publisher: Stripe Press
ISBN: 1953953344
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 465
Book Description
How insurgencies—enabled by digital devices and a vast information sphere—have mobilized millions of ordinary people around the world. In the words of economist and scholar Arnold Kling, Martin Gurri saw it coming. Technology has categorically reversed the information balance of power between the public and the elites who manage the great hierarchical institutions of the industrial age: government, political parties, the media. The Revolt of the Public tells the story of how insurgencies, enabled by digital devices and a vast information sphere, have mobilized millions of ordinary people around the world. Originally published in 2014, The Revolt of the Public is now available in an updated edition, which includes an extensive analysis of Donald Trump’s improbable rise to the presidency and the electoral triumphs of Brexit. The book concludes with a speculative look forward, pondering whether the current elite class can bring about a reformation of the democratic process and whether new organizing principles, adapted to a digital world, can arise out of the present political turbulence.
