n this very riveting and well-researched essay, Julius Fondong ruminates on the continued relevance of the promises and principles that underpinned the creation of the post-colonial Cameroon nation-state, sixty years after unification in 1961. Renewing the Promise: A Treatise on the Refoundation of the Cameroon Nation chronicles Cameroon's experiment in statehood; an experiment, which according to the author, sprung out of a desire and a promise to forge a new nation through the fusion of two territories with contrasting historical experiences and colonial legacies. Writing from the vantage position of a policy analyst, a governance expert, and a conflict management practitioner, Fondong contends that a combination of policy inconsistencies, imperial arrogance, institution capture, leadership deficiencies and the brazen travesties of the nation's foundational principles and promises has led to violent internal dissent, decreased state capacity for public service delivery and a development gridlock. So, what can be done to re-align the nation to its founding promises and save it from possible disintegration? Fondong proposes an overarching, governance-based praxis for the re-engineering of the Cameroon nation from the bottom up. His proposed remedy is predicated on the principles of decentralized governance, the redistribution of power in a manner that addresses the right to self-determination of Anglophone Cameroonians, enhanced public service delivery and a strategic shift from a transactional to a transformational leadership paradigm. Renewing the Promise is a thought-provoking and captivating political essay, written with exhilarating passion and prototypical clarity. It can serve as a blueprint for a much-needed reform of Cameroon's governance architecture.

A “persuasive . . . heartfelt and vividly written” call to counter systemic racism and build national solidarity in America (Publishers Weekly). The American Promise enshrined in our Constitution states that all men and women are inherently equal. And yet racism continues to corrode our society. If we cannot overcome it, Theodore Johnson argues, the promise that made America unique on Earth will have died. In When the Stars Begin to Fall, Johnson presents a compelling blueprint for the kind of national solidarity necessary to mitigate racism. Weaving together history, personal memories, and his family’s multi-generational experiences with racism, Johnson posits that solutions can be found in the exceptional citizenship long practiced in Black America. Understanding that racism is a structural crime of the state, he argues that overcoming it requires us to recognize that a color-conscious society—not a color-blind one—is the true fulfillment of the American Promise. Fueled by Johnson’s ultimate faith in the American project, grounded in his family’s longstanding optimism and his own military service, When the Stars Begin to Fall is an urgent call to undertake the process of overcoming what has long seemed intractable.

"The History of the Eternal Kingdom" invites the reader to embark on a journey through the grand narrative of divine redemption as revealed in the Scriptures. The Bible presents to us a God who steps out of His fullness and perfection to manifest the entirety of His being to humanity, making it a participant in His nature and inviting it to partake in the joy of His eternal glory. Before God’s eternal plan was fully unveiled, we see the story of a man introduced into the world as a responsible being, going through various stages of failure and redemption until the moment when his enmity against God culminates on the cross. The cross, however, was not only the pinnacle of human hostility but also the foundation of the complete revelation of God's love and justice, where His character is glorified, and humanity is redeemed. This book aims to explore these three great themes: Creation, now subject to the consequences of the fall; the Law, which gave a standard to man amid the darkness of sin; and, above all, the Son of God, who came to bring grace into a world of ignorance and misery. Here, Christ is the center of all divine purposes, the expression of the Father’s love, the redeemer who, through suffering, became the gathering point of all things in heaven and on earth. The story of the Scriptures is a story of hope, where evil is confronted by good, and where divine Justice triumphs through grace. The reign of sin is destroyed, and humanity is placed in a new relationship with God—not in condemnation but in justification and joy, reconciled by Christ’s redemptive work. This is the story of the Eternal Kingdom: God’s journey in restoring all creation, where the end will be God being all in all. May each page of this book lead the reader to contemplate with reverence and wonder the magnitude of God’s eternal plan and the beauty of His grace manifested in Christ. Here lies the story not only of a people but of the Creator Himself, in pursuit of the complete redemption of all He has created.
