The Fighter of Auschwitz: The incredible true story of Leen Sanders who boxed to help others survive
**A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER**‘He had the dream again last night… He taps the gloves of his unbeaten Polish opponent. There are rumours that the loser will be sent to the gas chamber.’
In 1943, the Dutch champion boxer, Leen Sanders, was sent to Auschwitz. His wife and children were put to death while he was sent ‘to the left’ with the others who were fit enough for labour. Recognised by an SS officer, he was earmarked for a ‘privileged’ post in the kitchens in exchange for weekly boxing matches for the entertainment of the Nazi guards. From there, he enacted his resistance to their limitless cruelty.
With great risk and danger to his own life, Leen stole, concealed and smuggled food and clothing from SS nursing units for years to alleviate the unbearable suffering of the prisoners in need. He also regularly supplied extra food to the Dutch women in Dr. Mengele’s experiment, Block 10. To his fellow Jews in the camp, he acted as a rescuer, leader and role model, defending them even on their bitter death march to Dachau towards the end of the war.
A story of astonishing resilience and compassion, The Fighter of Auschwitz is a testament to the endurance of humanity in the face of extraordinary evil.

Artificial Intelligence: A Beginner’s Step-by-Step Guide
When I was little, my parents told me stories of how they had to physically walk to a store, look through a huge catalog, ask if it was available, and finally hope it would be of decent quality to enjoy – all to watch a single movie.And I thought, “Wait. So, you’re telling me that you couldn’t just log into Netflix, see what movies they’ve recommended to you based on one’s you’ve liked in the past, and enjoy the whole thing within the click of a button? Then I thought, well exactly how is it that Netflix is able to magically know what I’ll like?”
So, I started to do some research – and little did I realize that at that moment, I stepped into a new realm.
I soon realized that it’s not just Netflix that has these so called “magical abilities”.
Look around you. A GPS – how can it predict our arrival time to such precision, accounting for all traffic, stops, and accidents, well before we even get on the road?
How does Spotify recommend the perfect songs specifically for us without fail?
Ever noticed how Google comes up with millions of search results catered exactly for us within the blink of an eye?
These are things that we take for granted – they’re just another part of life, right? But if you take a step back and ask: “How?”, do you know the answer?
Well, it’s two magical words:
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is everywhere and is a part of the fabric we’re growing in today. Whether we like it or not, and whether we believe in AI or not, AI is here to stay, and it’s a must that we understand and embrace AI.
As I began dwelling deeper into this subject, I soon became fascinated with the field. My fears of evil robots taking over the world one day faded away when I knew that the more I learn about AI, the more I can influence how AI helps us in the future.
I believe that AI must be learnt by all, and from early on. This is not something you learn later in life, perhaps in a job. This is something you must embrace growing up.
Towards this goal, I started an AI club at my school and seeing the success and how it benefited students, I started a YouTube channel. Within a span of few months, the channel grew to over 6,500 subscribers world-wide, spanning 75+ countries. The outpouring of over 3500 comments on the channel on how the channel has benefited the community was uplifting.
Drawing inspiration from this, I felt that I could share my learnings and break down AI into easy-to-understand steps that you can benefit from.
AI is growing at a rapid pace. It’s estimated that AI will grow to a market size of $360+ billion by 2028. The opportunities that this fascinating field presents is tremendous. Whether you’re looking to upskill yourself, or pursue a career in AI, learning the basics is a must.
And hence this journey with this book.
I hope you enjoy and learn in the process!

SEO Migration Checklist – WordPress Redesign SEO Shielding : Local Search Engine Optimization Website Redevelopment Audit 2021 (SEO for Web Developers)
Protect your clients’ businesses from WordPress website redesign nightmares!In my 10 years as an SEO specialist, I’ve had far too many people come to me after their SEO migration has gone wrong. They’ve lost all their enquiries, had to lay off staff, and been close to bankruptcy.
They just didn’t know to protect themselves during a website redesign. Business owners know they don’t understand SEO, and many web developers don’t know what they don’t know.
SEO specialists are the only people who really know what needs to be done, but too often they aren’t involved in the process.
In this book, I teach you first how to check if the website is getting SEO traffic and needs migration. Then I walk you through the migration process, step-by-step, so you know exactly what to do before the site goes live.
You’ll also be able to offer SEO migration as a new service to your clients (a 10-40 hour job).

Witness – The Making Of Schindler’s List
This is not just another movie. We have a responsibility toward the world
remembering the Holocaust. It is a film about conscience’
Steven Spielberg
When Schindler’s List was released in 1993 it was acclaimed as both a motion picture masterpiece and a reaffirmation of the human spirit. In 1994 it had twelve Academy Award Nominations and won in seven categories including Best Picture and Best Director. This book is the moving story of how Steven Spielberg spent ten years bringing Thomas Keneally’s winning novel Schindler’s Ark to the screen. Written by Franciszek Palowski – guide, interpreter and consultant on the 1989 Booker Prize movie from Spielberg’s first research visit to Poland in 1992 – it is part diary, part chronicle of the massive undertaking in bringing the story to the screen, and part witness to the responsibility of telling the traumatic stories of the Schindler jews who are still alive today. The author acted as coordinator of the 1300 Schindler jews who travelled from all over the world to participate in re-telling the wartime events. Leopold Pfefferberg (now Page) who first inspired Thomas Keneally to write Schindler’s story supplied the photographs which served as a model for re-creating the past and many are reproduced in this book for the first time.

Fashioning the Nation: Costume and Identity in British Cinema
This work explores the history of costume in British film, from the 1920s to the 1990s. It shows how period costume romances, such as “Caravan”, “Madonna of the Seven Moons” and “So Long at the Fair” featured sensual designs which caused a scandal in a postwar society overly concerned with restraint and it explains the cultural implications of this scandal. Cook charts the way these films engage with Europe, with costume providing a way for the characters to cross borders and achieve personal freedom and, in turn, inviting audiences to imagine themselves as European.Read more

Censored
If one drew up a list of the best films ever made, then it turns out that nearly all of them have been heavily censored or banned. Lang’s METROPOLIS, Chaplin’s CITY STREETS, Eisenstein’s BATTLESHIP POTEMKIN, Brando’s THE WILD ONE and Kubrick’s THE CLOCKWORK ORANGE, for instance, have all suffered from the effects of censorship. This pioneering book explores the absurdities (and occasional virtues) of censorship over the whole history of film in Britain, and places them in the context of their age. From the banning of anti-Nazi films (that continued up to 1939), to the sexual dilemmas of the 50s and 60s as the censors dealt with homosexuality, nudity, violence, drugs, rape and other subjects that came out of the closet, right up to the ludicrous limits still imposed on film-makers by the BBFC, this book is a brilliantly entertaining – but also hard-hitting – account of a control that is often political in its effect, and always contradictory.Read more

Teacher’s Pet
I want you to be my first.

Mr. North didn’t sleep with students. Everybody knew it because every girl in school was at least a little bit in love with him. Including Nova Monroe.
Mr. North was perfect, big and gorgeous, a former college football player turned high school coach, he was a hunk as well as a studious professor.
No one could look at him and not crave his approval.
She wanted his approval. But above all, she wanted his attention.Nova was a problem for him; his most vexatious student.
She offered him her virginity on a silver platter. Taking what she offered would destroy his teaching career, moreover, it went against everything he believed in, but he’d never wanted anything more.
When he finds out she’s homeless, he offers her a place to stay. They end up living together, and things get even more out of hand.
Can he resist her? Or will he risk it all and give in to temptation?Read more

BLMLDS: Poetry for the BLM Movement
With God, all things are possible. With our hearts and Jesus in our corner, the world is there for us to change for the better. We have a perfect example and many great examples who followed perfection from Heaven. So I have wondered why there are still people in society who don’t matter. Why aren’t we lifting up those who need it most? Why aren’t calling out racism everywhere and advocating for those who don’t matter? I see many of the youth in the Wards aiming for change and a better world. These loafers on the ground make the future look brighter. We just need to always aim for the infinite brightness we follow.Read more
