Ukrainian Americans Endure

Revisado: 06-19-22

Sullivan reminds us to preserve a belief in family, faith, and western freedom. At a time when Ukraine is under such pressure to defend itself, this beautiful story is a reminder that today's fighters descend from tough people who survived a hidden famine, two world wars and the rise of communism but never gave up. The characters embody the love of a mother, the bond of marriage and the innocence and inspiration of children. It touches the heart, especially as blue and yellow flags checker the US in support of the ongoing war with Russia.

A different take on feminine roles in business

Revisado: 06-01-20

This has a ethnocentric lens that helps recognize differences and strengths of American and Chinese culture that provides valuable insight but may not be appropriate in all work place environments. Good for rising business women looking to get an edge in new markets.

quotable and impactful

Revisado: 09-30-19

i was intrigued by the reasons why women aren't joining in tech industries these days and the importance of logic traps that prevent women from their moment of lift in the workplace....in the words of Brene Brown, the Obstacle becomes the solution. video games for women!
I appreciated her willingness to write and orate this book while Bill did the Netflix series. Tackling both mediums at once is a one two punch.
Collectively they are a couple from this generation that will be remembered for their altruism and faith to make hard investments in innovation and heart felt listening of all people that others lack the courage to embark upon resulting in a journey that will eventually- strategically -overcome poverty....I cried at the thought of a million teenagers a year suffering mother-baby mortality. Farming discussions, contraception discussions, child marriage discussions, faith discussions....the spirit of real Americans doing real good work for the world making momentous strides to change us all for the better. read this book and help me extend her words. Melinda, one day I hope to work for your foundation because of the inspiring work and hard journeys ahead that you have laid the groundwork for.

Good but not great

Revisado: 06-15-15

This book is intended more for a military audience. There are many acronyms and jargon that may be cumbersom to keep up with if you aren't familiar with a lot of the phrases typical in military circles.

Good introduction to current events

Revisado: 06-15-15

I really liked the questions posed by the author and possible solutions to the future. Reading this book gives a novice on South Eastern politics a plunge into what happened in the last decade and how it will impact the current generation and the decade ahead. It's an easy, relatively quick audible book. Pakistan on the Brink really helps capture the so - what of America's decisions now and how they'll ultimately impair or improve the deep rooted problems that plague this historically rich cultural region.

Very good overview of governance and cyber securit

Revisado: 02-18-15

This book seemed to lack depth in the topics but was an overall good introduction to world governance. I wouldve liked a longer book that really tackled what needs to be done in the future instead of repeating the same reasons for how world leaders are inefficient and ineffective. We all know that. We see it in the news daily. What are some realistic concrete solutions from someone who works in these institutions and how can change be driven from the inside out? Also, the voice is British and kinda boring. Hard to follow for a typical young American.
