In Africa Unchained , George Ayittey takes a controversial look at Africa's future and makes a number of daring suggestions. Looking at how Africa can modernize, build, and improve their indigenous institutions which have been castigated by African leaders as 'backward and primitive', Ayittey argues that Africa should build and expand upon these traditions of free markets and free trade. Asking why the poorest Africans haven't been able to prosper in the Twenty-first-century, Ayittey makes the answer obvious: their economic freedom was snatched from them. War and conflict replaced peace and the infrastructure crumbled. In a book that will be pondered over and argued about as much as his previous volumes, Ayittey looks at the possibilities for indigenous structures to revive a troubled continent.
A stellar group of America's leading political thinkers explore how to reboot our democracy The presidential election of 2016 highlighted some long-standing flaws in American democracy and added a few new ones. Across the political spectrum, most Americans do not believe that democracy is delivering on its promises of fairness, justice, shared prosperity, or security in a changing world. The nation cannot even begin to address climate change and economic justice if it remains paralyzed by political gridlock. Democracy Unchained is about making American democracy work to solve problems that have long impaired our system of governance. The book is the collective work of thirty of the most perceptive writers, practitioners, scientists, educators, and journalists writing today, who are committed to moving the political conversation from the present anger and angst to the positive and constructive change necessary to achieve the full promise of a durable democracy that works for everyone and protects our common future. Including essays by Yasha Mounk on populism, Chisun Lee on money and politics, Ras Baraka on building democracy from the ground up, and Bill McKibben on climate, Democracy Unchained is the articulation of faith in democracy and will be required reading for all who are working to make democracy a reality.

Effective leadership is a crucial element in all human endeavours. It inspires, supports, guides and ensures the achievement of the goals and vision of a group. Unfortunately, stories about failed leadership abound at various levels of society and the situation is worsened by the mystery that appears to surround the concept of leadership. In this book, "Unchained Leadership," Dr. Ackah-Nyamike Jnr. attempts to demystify leadership by exploring the basic functions of a leader vis-a-vis the traits and qualities required by leaders to perform effectively. This exploration is seated within a deep conviction that: leadership is needed wherever two or more people are gathered with a goal or vision; and effective leadership is achievable."
The inspiration for this book came from love and friendship. The love I have for the incredible black women in my life. And I am delighted to share their magic with you, to share their inspiration, their triumphs, and their wisdom. A beautiful collection of black women stepping into their power and making waves in the world - and you can too. A proverb I love is 'when sleeping women wake, mountains move' and the women in this book are moving mountains and they are inviting you to do the same. Savour the magic as you read. Embody the wisdom they share. Release the chains holding you down in life. Rise into that powerful badass Divine being that you are. The world is your oyster. It is YOUR time.
