How many names does a woman bear? a woman has many names is a voice to women, and all others who care to listen. It is a finely-knitted thread of poems that focus on issues some women are too scared to share. The poems allay their fears by turning their reverberating sobs into reinvigorating songs while equally reassuring them of their innate abilities to triumph over travails. The poet deploys her craft in the service of humanity by celebrating and championing the cause of the downtrodden whose essence are perennially punctured. She also deftly navigates other issues such as nationhood, inept governance and the universal subjects of love, hope, persistence and self-worth. Every poem in this collection is a name thirsting for sunlight & mdash;an undying essence embodying beauty, courage and strength in ways that enliven our world. Ultimately, the poems present a broad range of answers to the question, does a woman have many names?

Nigeria Dancing on the Brink - John Campbell & ldquo;This lucidly written book will appeal to scholars, policymakers, and general readers. John Campbell explores key political, economic, and social issues and frankly evaluates U.S. policies in helping or inhibiting the building of a stable, democratic, and less corrupt Nigeria. It is essential reading for all concerned about the unfulfilled potential, and uncertain future, of this complex nation. & rdquo; & mdash;Richard Joseph, Northwestern University & ldquo;A fascinating work. With the detail Ambassador Campbell provides based on his Abuja assignment, the book is a lucid and valuable contribution to understanding contemporary Nigeria. Campbell writes with unusual candor, and with his initial academic training as a historian, he brings analytical discipline to his writing. This is much more than a mere memoir. & rdquo; & mdash;Crawford Young, University of Wisconsin, Madison Campbell argues that the breakdown of elite consensus, the lingering problems in the Niger-Delta, the crisis in the Middle Belt and the religious extremism that has made the North combustible, are all the key fault lines that could make the result of the forthcoming elections problematic. ...He has captured our stasis in the following words: & ldquo;Nigeria's top political personalities have largely remained the same since the end of the civil war; they have merely aged in place... & rdquo; Campbell comes across as one who loves Nigeria and wants her to succeed. & ndash; Fr. Matthew H. Kukah & ldquo;Nigeria, the united States & rsquo; most important strategic partner in West Africa, is in trouble. While Nigerians often claim they are masters of dancing on the brink without falling off, the recent vacuum in government authority, the upcoming 2011 elections, and escalating violence in the Niger Delta and the north may finally provide the impetus that pushes it into the abyss of state failure. & rdquo; John Campbell explores Nigeria & rsquo;s postcolonial history and presents a nuanced explanation of the events and conditions that have carried this complex, dynamic, and very troubled giant to the edge. Central to his analysis are the oil wealth, endemic corruption, and elite competition that have undermined Nigeria & rsquo;s nascent democratic institutions and alienated an increasingly impoverished population. State failure would damage the interest of the United States, but it is not inevitable. Campbell suggests concretepolicy options that would allow the United States to help Nigeria avoid state failure and promote political, social, and economic development.

No Easy Harvest is many stories in one, indeed many books in one at the same time. It is a personal life story with many paradoxes the paradox of the small boy who was sent to the Qua The Mission Primary School, Idah, in 1949 by his mother with the sole purpose of acquiring the capacity to read the Holy Bible and possibly become a primary school teacher or an evangelist, to a young man who went on to acquire degrees from the University of Ibadan ( BSc ( Econ.), 1967 ) , the University of Chicago (MA Econ , 1960 ) and Michigan State University, East Lansing (PhD Agric Econ , 1979 ), culminating in an academic career, the paradox of an academic with primary interest in research , who shunned tempting administrative responsibilities, to one on whom was thrust, as an unintended consequence and against his wish, appointments as Pioneer Vice Chancellor , University of Agriculture , Makurdi (UAM ), Nigeria ( 1988-96 ), the invitation and persuasion to serve as Vice Chancellor, Kogi State University ( KSU ), Anyigba ( 2008-08 ), to his appointment as Deputy Director General, International Service for National Agricultural Research ( ISNAR ), The Hague, The Netherlands, 1998. The book provides details on the programme content of the author's leadership at the Federal Agricultural Coordinating Unit, UAM, the National Agricultural Land Development Authority (NALDA), and, at the international level, ISNAR This book does the unusual in providing details of the author's strategies and actual results from over 35 years of investing in the Nigerian stock market to serve as inspiration to others, sharing his philosophy of long - term investment. The lesson: the academic, even in a developing country, can attain clean financial security to complement a successful academic career, following certain principles and strategies contained in the book. On formal giving back to society, it details the author's founding and funding of two foundations: the Igala Education Foundation (2001) and the F.S. Idachaba Foundation for Research and Scholarship (IFRES) (2008). No Easy Harvest concludes with the honours and awards that have come the author's way , or special highlight are the award of the DSc (Honoris Causa) by the University of Agriculture, Abeokuta ( 2004 ), rated at that time by the National Universities Commission (NUC ) as the best university in Nigeria, and the crowning glory of it all, the author's conferment with the Nigerian National Order of Merit (NNOM ) Award , the highest award that Nigeria confers on its citizen for academic excellence and outstanding intellectual achievement, and the presentation to the author of the certificate, medal and cash by President Goodluck Jonathan at the Presidential Villa , State House, Abuja , on December 1 , 2011.

IN THE NAME OF DEMOCRACY BY Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu Democracy may be a word familiar to most, but it is still a vogue concept that remains largely misunderstood and misused by many. In recent years, the very institutions that are meant to provide models for emerging democracies tend to become problematic and even dysfunctional, thus making adapting the practice even more elusive. It is an incontrovertible fact that most democracies cannot afford the financial cost they currently demand. Another reason why so many democratic experiments have failed is that too much emphasis was put on elections and too little on the other essential features of democracy. This negative trend must be uprooted before it chokes to death, the very sit of democracy. The book makes very clear that robust checks and balances are just as vital to the establishment of a healthy democracy as a right to vote. These and many more of such insights are highlighted in this book. That is why the book is coming In handy to make a contribution by confronting the inbuilt contradictions of democracy. The book dwells on the concept of democracy in all its varied meanings and about the processes by which democracy might be attained. Contents of the book drive home the understanding that democracy in any society is vital for individuals to maintain identification with their government. This can be achieved to a democracy that emerges as a result of a gradual change in the principles that govern and update political systems that address problems. The book makes no pretense about the enviable place of democracy in governance systems. That is the reason it recognises that long-term, sustainable development is closely linked to sound democratic governance and the protection of human rights. It views democracy, human rights, and governance not in isolation but as a critical framework in which all aspects of development must advance together. Therefore, the book holds the strong view that for democracy to remain successful, it must be both assiduously nurtured when it is young-and cheerfully maintained when it is matured. For the author, democracy is not only important, but it is also vital! Simply because we are all human, we all deserve to live in a democracy that works.
