It's a documented fact, inflation and recession create incredible pressures on couples. It's true, during our last recession, 43 percent of US couples, and almost a third of couples surveyed, say the recession had caused them to argue more often, primarily about household finances. But the good news is–it just doesn't need to be like that! It’s so easy to stick our heads in the sand and avoid conflict, isn’t it? But we all know these discussions aren’t like fine wines, they are NOT going to age well!

In this collection of short stories some of our most popular and well-known authors are grouped together with an unfortunate tag: dead at 44. These authors are not run-of-the-mill or ten a penny; they are literary leviathans who left enduring works of literature and sadly may have left us many more had they lived. We will never know.

David Herbert Lawrence was born on the 11th September 1885 in Eastwood, Nottinghamshire, a coal mining town where the reality of a harsh life was only useful as experiences for future literary works. Lawrence’s first efforts were poems, short stories and a draft of ‘The White Peacock’. Moving to London and a teaching position in Croydon his writing attracted the attention of Ford Madox Ford, editor of The English Review, and he commissioned him to write ‘Odour of Chrysanthemums’.

Here we journey with our classic poets from Christina Georgina Rossetti and Thomas Hardy to Frances W. Harper and Kipling, not only the ways, the wonders and the women who take on the responsibility to raise children no matter the problems or dangers to themselves, but also the difficulties and sometimes desperate tragedies that motherhood can involve. We hope these poems inspire every generation to reach out and better themselves and those around. This is our tribute to mothers everywhere.

L'amante di Lady Chatterley è un romanzo di David Herbert Lawrence, considerato uno tra i romanzi più famosi del XX secolo.Pubblicato per la prima volta a Firenze nel 1928, l'opera fu immediatamente tacciata di oscenità a causa dei riferimenti espliciti di carattere sessuale e al fatto che in essa veniva descritta una relazione tra la moglie di un nobile paraplegico e un uomo appartenente alla classe lavoratrice.

Artificial intelligence was meant to be the great social equalizer that helps promote fairness by removing human bias from the equation, but is this true? Given that the policing and judicial systems can display human bias, this book explores how the technology they use can also reflect these prejudices. From healthcare services to social scoring in exams, to applying for and getting loans, AI outcomes often restrict those most in need of these services. Through personal stories from an esteemed black data scientist and AI expert, this book attempts to demystify the algorithmic black box.

When D.H. Lawrence's Lady Chatterley's Lover first appeared in print in the late 1920s, it was an immediate sensation. A vivid—often graphic—exploration of infidelity, sexual awakening, intimacy and free thinking, Chatterley was banned in Britain, America and dozens of other countries for its frank depiction of the sexual act, explicit descriptions of physical love and the liberal use of once-prohibited four-letter words.

Publicada en Florencia a cuenta del autor en 1928 y prohibida en Gran Bretaña hasta 1960, cuando fue objeto de un famoso juicio por obscenidad, El amante de lady Chatterley está considerada hoy en día una de las grandes novelas del siglo XX. En sus páginas, D. H. Lawrence no solo explora con lujo de detalles el romance adúltero entre una mujer casada con un aristócrata y el guardabosques de su finca, sino que ofrece un magnífico diagnóstico de la sociedad británica del periodo de entreguerras, «una época esencialmente trágica».
