People around the world have long turned to the writings and teachings of Asia's leading thinkers for insights on self-awareness, personal development, virtue, the importance of the family, and the need for continuous cultivation of knowledge.Today, the words and thoughts of Asian leaders - both past and present - can also teach the West and the East vital lessons in leadership, mentorship, coaching, continuous learning, and the cultivation of solid corporate cultures. "Quotations have always had the power to inspire me," says Asian Words of Success author Steven Howard. "When I was a child I started a collection of quotes on 3x5 index cards, and kept them filed in my own personal plastic box. Ever since I have been a collector of quotes, particularly during my 21 year tenure living in Asia."Within Asian Words of Success readers will find over 600 motivational quotations and phrases from some of Asia's leading thinkers: Buddha, Confucius, Gandhi, Jiddu Krishnamurti, Konosuke Matsushita, Lao-Tzu, Sun Tzu, and others. These quotations have been categorized into six sections, based on Howard's own reflections and professional experiences: Leadership, Coaching and Mentoring, Marketing, Customer Service, Personal Development, and Continuous Learning. But this is not to say that a quotation found in the Marketing and Customer Service section might not be equally valid to others as a Leadership or Personal Development motivational thought. It all depends on how you reflect on these Asian Words of Success. And that is what Howard hope's readers will do as they enjoy this book - and all the other volumes of the Asian Words of Wisdom series - reflect upon the words and thoughts of these Asian leaders. Howard's goal for all the books in his Asian Words of Wisdom series is to provide readers with motivational thoughts and quotes that will provide inspiration and motivation for your own growth and development.After all, as Confucius wrote, "To be fond of learning is to be near knowledge."

Murder is only the beginning in this stunning, thought-provoking thriller by W. Michael Gear and Kathleen O'Neal Gear, USA Today bestselling authors of Dark Inheritance and the First North American series."Dr. Tremain, your brother is dead." With one call from the FBI on a bright Colorado afternoon, paleoanthropologist Veronica Tremain's nightmare begins. Her brother, Dr. Scott Ferris, an anthropologist, has been tortured and murdered, his mutilated body left in the torched ruins of his home. Then the charred corpse of his girlfriend, Dr. Amanda Alexander, is found in Ohio. In fact, scientists on three continents-from New England to New Mexico, from Kiev to Tel Aviv-are dead or missing, their notes and labs destroyed.Stunned by the ghastly news, Veronica can only recall that her brother mentioned solving a 60,000-year-old mystery-and that his lover said their work was "a matter of justice." Even as Veronica is trying to sort out the perplexing and horrific events, fugitives reach her home, including missing computer expert Dr. Bryce Johnson and a little boy who turns out to be Scott and Amanda's young son, Abel. Mere hours later, assassins strike.Now, Veronica, Bryce, and Abel are on the run in a world with no refuge. Hunted by a death squad brazen enough to slaughter FBI agents and bomb federal offices, they will learn with horror that the terrorists' real target... is Abel. For a global conspiracy exists to kill one small child-along with everyone who has met, seen, or merely heard of the boy. And the killers may even be protected by the highest power in the land. Somehow, Abel is the key linking the present to a discovery from the ancient past, an amazing truth that can forever change humanities future-if anyone survives to reveal it...
