Book Description
An expert's view on solving the challenges confronting today's pharmaceutical industry Author John LaMattina, a thirty-year veteran of the pharmaceutical industry and former president of Pfizer's Global R&D Division, is internationally recognized as an expert on the pharmaceutical industry. His first book, Drug Truths: Dispelling the Myths About Pharma R&D, was critically acclaimed for clearing up misconceptions about the pharmaceutical industry and providing an honest account of the contributions of pharmaceutical research and development to human health and well-being. As he toured the country discussing Drug Truths, Dr. LaMattina regularly came across people who were filled with anger, accusing the pharmaceutical industry of making up diseases, hiding dangerous side effects, and more. This book was written in response to that experience, critically examining public perceptions and industry realities. Starting with "4 Secrets that Drug Companies Don't Want You to Know," Devalued and Distrusted provides a fact-based account of how the pharmaceutical industry works and the challenges it faces. It addresses such critical issues as: Why pharmaceutical R&D productivity has declined Where pharmaceutical companies need to invest their resources What can be done to solve core health challenges, including cancer, diabetes, and neurodegenerative diseases How the pharmaceutical industry can regain public trust and resuscitate its image Our understanding of human health and disease grows daily; however, converting science into medicine is increasingly challenging. Reading Devalued and Distrusted, you'll not only gain a greater appreciation of those challenges, but also the role that the pharmaceutical industry currently plays and can play in solving those challenges.

Book Description
In a world full of images, sometimes you have to ask yourself what are some parts in my life that I do not like. Some parts of me that I am only carrying around because of my up-bringing, or maybe some pain that I caused to myself or pain that someone else caused in my life. Now I am stuck in this image that I didn’t even ask for. In the beginning of the bible (Genesis 1:26) exact he said, ‘’Let us make man in Our Image, according to our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth. So my question is how did we get here? If we have power over everything including ourselves, how did we end up broken, lost, hurt, trustless, bound, evil hearted, fake, and loveless. Somewhere along the way of life we have all lost our image on who we truly are and who we are meant to be. Most of us will find our way back, but a lot of us will not. That’s not even the scary part. The fact that we continue to create generation after generation after generations with the same broken images all over again now that’s scary. Today is the day that I believe every person that tunes into this book will realize that I may not be broken like them but I am going to recognize from now on the fruits that I bear. Please don’t get me wrong, I know you may be thinking that all images aren’t bad or broken and that is correct. Some images are sweet, kind and giving, aren’t broken at all. Which is amazing, but think about all the images around you, people that you know, your very own people and not once have you told them about who GOD said they were supposed to be. This book is based on three very different characters they are not the same, but all carry around a image because of their past. I pray you enjoy, and I pray that you will understand that GOD created a whole different image for us, so why settle for less. -Three Women-Three Images-Three twist-One Story-GOD just don’t want to save us ;He wants to transform us.

Pages : 199
Book Description
Tony Alum's Images from a Broken Mirror is a factional account of the fractious, violent, vicious circle in which African immigrants are trapped in Europe. Set in France and Italy, the story dwells on the trafficking of Nigerian women to Italy. Using the persona, Efe, a trafficked Nigerian girl, the author explores the pressures that come together to propel the men and women, young and old, from Africa to Europe. Efe goes through the tedious and dangerous life of an immigrant commercial sex worker in Italy. She falls in love with Carlo, her first client.

To the Chinese people, jade is a precious stone endowed with magical properties which encapsulated all that mankind aspires to in terms of character, elegance, tranquility, purity and virtue.
