90 Days with the Savior
by William Bill Mole Rp Ccac Camsii90 Days with the Saviour is a God inspired journey of transformation from addictive and destructive behaviours. In the book of Matthew Jesus instruct us to, seek first the kingdom of God, or as the Message versions says, steep your life in God-reality, God-initiative and God-provision (6:33), from the first to last exercise, 90 Days with the Saviour was designed to keep you seeking God from the start of your day to the end of your day. Throughout scripture we are told to examine ourselves, to test ourselves, to pray always, to be watchful, to be thankful, to meditate on His word, and to know that God is always with us. 90 Days with the Saviour takes you on that journey each day. Romans 12:2 says …. Let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think (NLT). 90 Days with the Saviour was designed to keep you focused on that journey of transformation, not on your problem but on the only one who can help you overcome the torment and despair. Jesus says in Matthew 11:28, … “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest” this book is intended to bring you into that rest, to give you that new life in Christ, “This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!” (2 Cor. 5:17). 90 Days with the Saviour is intended to help you shed the old you and put on the new you, “ throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception. Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. Put on your new nature, created to be like God truly righteous and holy.” (Ephesians 4:22-24). Are you ready for a new life? Then you are ready for this book!

9/12: The Epic Battle of the Ground Zero Responders
by William H. Groner Tom Teicholz9/12 is the saga of the epic nine-year legal battle waged by William H. Groner against the City of New York and its contractors on behalf of the more than ten thousand first responders who became ill as a result of working on the Ground Zero cleanup. These first responders—like AT&T Disaster Relief head Gary Acker and New York Police Department detectives Candiace Baker, Thomas Ryan, and Mindy Hersh—rushed to Ground Zero and remained to work on the rescue and recovery mission, which lasted for the next nine months. Their selfless bravery and humanity were rewarded with horrible health issues resulting from the toxic stew of chemicals present in the dust and debris that government officials such as Mayor Rudy Giuliani and EPA chief Christine Todd Whitman had assured them was safe. Groner, a lead attorney in the mass tort litigation, fought for their illnesses to be acknowledged and for them to receive validation and closure, as well as for compensation—an eventual aggregate award of more than $800 million. As detailed in 9/12, the battle for the Ground Zero responders was waged not only in the courtroom but also in the press, in medical and scientific research centers, and among politicians at the local, state, and federal levels, as well as in the halls of Congress to pass the Zadroga Health and Compensation Act. 9/12 weaves together Groner’s firsthand account with glimpses into the first responders’ lives as they try to understand and overcome their illnesses. The result is an intimate look into their battles—physical, mental, and legal—that will leave you cheering for these heroes who, in spite of everything, would do it all again. Told by Groner and journalist Tom Teicholz, 9/12 is the story of the brave public servants who showed up when their country needed them most, of their fight for redress, and of their victory in the face of the seemingly insurmountable.

The $800 Million Pill: The Truth Behind the Cost of New Drugs
by Merrill GooznerWhy do life-saving prescription drugs cost so much? Drug companies insist that prices reflect the millions they invest in research and development. In this gripping exposé, Merrill Goozner contends that American taxpayers are in fact footing the bill twice: once by supporting government-funded research and again by paying astronomically high prices for prescription drugs. Goozner demonstrates that almost all the important new drugs of the past quarter-century actually originated from research at taxpayer-funded universities and at the National Institutes of Health. He reports that once the innovative work is over, the pharmaceutical industry often steps in to reap the profit. Goozner shows how drug innovation is driven by dedicated scientists intent on finding cures for diseases, not by pharmaceutical firms whose bottom line often takes precedence over the advance of medicine. A university biochemist who spent twenty years searching for a single blood protein that later became the best-selling biotech drug in the world, a government employee who discovered the causes for dozens of crippling genetic disorders, and the Department of Energy-funded research that made the Human Genome Project possible--these engrossing accounts illustrate how medical breakthroughs actually take place. The $800 Million Pill suggests ways that the government's role in testing new medicines could be expanded to eliminate the private sector waste driving up the cost of existing drugs. Pharmaceutical firms should be compelled to refocus their human and financial resources on true medical innovation, Goozner insists. This book is essential reading for everyone concerned about the politically charged topics of drug pricing, Medicare coverage, national health care, and the role of pharmaceutical companies in developing countries.
