... there, at the main entrance of the World Bank was this large inscription "A World without Poverty Is Our Dream." He couldn't go wrong, he thought. Today, he often thinks the sentence should have been completed: ... And we make sure it will just remain a dream."

In this riveting economic thriller, Paul Jordan, a renegade World Banker, and Moni Cheng, an Andean woman who leads a socio-environmental nongovernmental organization in the Peruvian Amazon, endure kidnappings, bombings, and deadly chases in their fight against boundless capitalism, destructive economic policies, and corporate greed that are wreaking worldwide social injustice and destroying the globe's richest zones of biodiversity.

Together, Jordan and Cheng expose corporate ruthlessness, military brutality, and Machiavellian economic policies of the foremost financial ivory towers of Washington, the World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund. With other visionaries from around the globe, Jordan and Cheng untiringly disseminate truth and candid information about the calamities caused by this cruel machinery. And against all odds, they mobilize the power of the people.

Richly detailed, grounded in actual events and statistics, and complete with notes from author and former World Bank economist Peter Koenig, Implosion is both an unsettling, gripping novel and a powerful commentary on the realities of the modern world's corporatocracy.

Simple learning book with lots to offer!
Format: Board book
I really love rainbows and I wanted to share that love with my children. This book is a great way to do that! It has solid construction with clean soft cuts on the pages, which are thinner but just as sturdy as most board books. Not too short, and well illustrated, and a good introduction to the colors, it is well worth the price.

Love the message the story tells, easy read!
Format: Board book, Format: Board book
This book tells a perfect little story teaching little ones to be thankful. I love how it only tells a story about being thankful and kind, but it also is teaching them numbers through repetition. Each page shows a number and also has the word of the number to read. In such a short read, little ones can learn a lot. Because it’s short and sweet, it keeps their attention and the illustrations are cute and fun for toddlers to follow along with. This makes for a perfect gift for a new little one or a great addition to a current toddler library! In our family, we also love that it’s a board book Because it holds up longer with a family of three little ages 1, 2.5 and 4. Everyone enjoys it and it’s a family favorite!
