You Can Hear Me Now: How Microloans and Cell Phones Are Connecting the Worlds Poor to the Global Economy
How economic development can address unmet human needs on a large scale
Bangladeshi villagers with cell phones helped build what is now a thriving $200 million company. What is the lesson for the rest of the world? This is a question author Nick Sullivan addresses in the tale of a new kind of entrepreneur, Iqbal Quadir.
Sullivan provides a new approach to building business opportunity in the developing world through a compelling account of what he calls the " external combustion engine" – a combination of market elements and forces that is already lifting people out of poverty in the Third World. The " engine" comprises three outside forces: information technology, imported by native entrepreneurs trained in the West, backed by foreign investors. Focusing primarily on the gripping stories of fast-growing cell phone companies, particularly Bangladesh’ s renowned GrameenPhone, the book describes an inclusive capitalism that engages and enables many of the...

Homeopathic Cell Salt Remedies: Healing with Nature's Twelve Mineral Compounds
In 1870, Dr. W.H. Schuessler--noted physiological chemist and physicist--developed the use of twelve cell salt remedies in the treatment of illness. Dr. Schuessler discovered that cell salts are essential to maintaining a healthy body, and that when the body's stores of these compounds become depleted, the body becomes susceptible to disease. "Homeopathic Cell Salt Remedies is a comprehensive guide to the theory and use of homeopathic cell salts. Part One first provides a history of Dr. Schuessler's discovery, and then describes each of the cell salts, explaining how it works and detailing its use. Part Two offers an A-to-Z listing of common disorders and the cell salt remedies that can be used to treat them. Here is a much-needed introduction to the safe and effective use of cell salts.

Pip Pirate
Pip and his crew are bound for Treasure Island, looking for gold, then phoning his friends with news that he's found the treasure. "Fun Phones are board books for toddlers--and they're shaped exactly like cell phones! A make-believe key pad decorates each front cover, so kids can pretend to dial and phone a friend. Or they can press the plastic button located just beneath the key pad, and listen to the phone ring. It sounds exactly like a real cell phone. When they open the book's front cover, they'll find an amusing little story with bright, full-color illustrations on every board page.
