This book is to open the eyes of teenagers, youths and singles about Love, Infatuation, Lust, Sex, Rape and Sexual Impurity. Relationship is the phenomenon expression that interprets the way different people are connected to one another beyond their original blood-line links. This therefore reminds us of the fact that no man is an Island, we belong to one form of relationship or the other. With particular reference to relationships that exist between a boy and a girl it grows from acquaintances, friendship, courtships and finally end up in marriage. Each stage of these relationships have their peculiar characteristic that sets them apart. But beyond such characteristics the moral standards required to be held by each party is of vital importance. In the Bible we have examples of both good and bad relationships. The relationship between Mary and Joseph ''The human parents of Jesus Christ'' is one that stood out as a good thing to emulate (Mathew 1:18-21). While the relationship between Tamar and Amnon is a lustful attraction that we should avoid (2 Samuel 13:1-22). John Peter popularly known as Sir-P., in this book seeks to help his readers come to terms with the difference between love, infatuation and lust and how it can have a devastating effect on the youths and teenagers when they cross the line. He took time to define key terminologies relating to sexual relationships and at some point, was very medical for better understanding. This book is recommended as a must read for every youth and teenager, because there are several lessons to learn ranging from: how to avoid premarital sex, what to stand to lose if I cross the line, what I can do to help other youths and teenagers and many more.

Over fifty years ago, Albert Hirschman argued that dissatisfied consumers could either voice complaint or exit when they were dissatisfied with goods or services. Loyal consumers would voice rather than exit. Hirschman argued that making exit easier from publicly provided services, such as health or education, would reduce voice, taking the richest and most articulate away and this would lead to the deterioration of public services. This book provides the first thorough empirical study of these ideas. Using a modified version of Hirschman's account, examining private and collective voice, and viewing loyalty as a form of social investment, it is grounded on a dedicated five-year panel study of British citizens. Given government policies over the past decade or more which make exit easier from public providers, this is a timely publication for all those who care about the quality of government services.

How social media is giving rise to a chaotic new form of politicsAs people spend increasing proportions of their daily lives using social media, such as Twitter and Facebook, they are being invited to support myriad political causes by sharing, liking, endorsing, or downloading. Chain reactions caused by these tiny acts of participation form a growing part of collective action today, from neighborhood campaigns to global political movements. Political Turbulence reveals that, in fact, most attempts at collective action online do not succeed, but some give rise to huge mobilizations-even revolutions.Drawing on large-scale data generated from the Internet and real-world events, this book shows how mobilizations that succeed are unpredictable, unstable, and often unsustainable. To better understand this unruly new force in the political world, the authors use experiments that test how social media influence citizens deciding whether or not to participate. They show how different personality types react to social influences and identify which types of people are willing to participate at an early stage in a mobilization when there are few supporters or signals of viability. The authors argue that pluralism is the model of democracy that is emerging in the social media age-not the ordered, organized vision of early pluralists, but a chaotic, turbulent form of politics.This book demonstrates how data science and experimentation with social data can provide a methodological toolkit for understanding, shaping, and perhaps even predicting the outcomes of this democratic turbulence.

Do you believe in the Sleepers?Loving mother Myra Bradshaw does. In fact, she is always weaving tales to her son, Timmy, of mystical adventures in the Elysian field, land of the Sleepers, where children are kept safe at night. After Myra's untimely death, Timmy takes the story to heart, knowing that his mother, ferried across the River Styx by the mythic boatman Charon, will be safe in the land of Elysian, the place where the adult Sleepers tend to the children who have wandered there in their dreams. Shortly thereafter, Timmy and his father move to the Welsh border. There Timmy struggles to put Myra's death behind him. He finds some solace in the friendship of local boy Elliot. Timmy's belief in Elysian, and hope of finding his mother again there, takes them on a journey where they learn the power of faith over adversity, courage over fear, and how strength can come from the darkest of places.
