Campbell’s Rhetorical Method for Writing a Novel

release date: Apr 10, 2014
Campbell’s Rhetorical Method for Writing a Novel
My method, which is a far more pure "rhetorical" approach, requires a great deal of effort from the author up front, but paves the way to a more sincere level of writing, and a far greater level of emotional resonance with the reader... more work - but a much less difficult path toward achieving your goal of writing a novel!

Summary: Disloyal: A Memoir: Michael Cohen

release date: Dec 03, 2020
Summary: Disloyal: A Memoir: Michael Cohen
WARNING!: The Trump administration would rather that you not read this summary book because it reveals the darkest side of President Trump as testified by his personal attack dog and consigliere for over a decade, Michael Cohen. This is a summary book and is not intended to replace the original book by Michael Cohen entitled, Disloyal: A Memoir: The True Story of the Former Personal Attorney to President Donald J. Trump. Michael Cohen admits he fell mesmerized by Trump like a cult member, began to see himself breaking his moral code, but stuck with Trump for money, power, and fame. Cohen boasts that he knew Trump better than his own family and it was not a pretty sight. He saw Trump as a sociopathic mobster boss who would do anything to win and destroy anybody who challenged him in his quest for success. Cohen dumps a truck load of Trump family skeletons at the reader’s feet and then picks them up one by one and executes a meticulous show-and-tell. Pornstar Stormy Daniels and Playboy centerfold favorite Karen McDougall are unforgettable pains in the ass for Trump and he enlists Cohen, the “fixer,” to “take care of it.” According to Cohen, Trump thinks nothing of stiffing contractors, or exploiting widows in bankruptcy for profit, or cheating in public opinion polls, or inflating or deflating his property values, or the concept of bribing the mob to get a construction project completed that he learned from his father. Cohen bears witness to Trump’s failing business and real estate empire, his miraculous political campaign, and the start of his Presidency before he is strong-armed and whisked away to jail by the Mueller Special Counsel investigation. Cohen cites examples to show that Trump was a bully, a likely adulterer, a pathological liar, an amoral cheat, a bigot regarding homosexuals and religion, and an occasional racist. He also shows Trump’s uncanny strengths, skills, and abilities and why he thought, originally, that Trump would be a good President. Cohen spent years encouraging him to run. This story is a must-read because it has new, insider information about how the most powerful person in the world is a most ugly personality and how he nevertheless ascended to his position of authority--and what might lay in sight for the future.

Summary: United States of Socialism: Dinesh D'Souza

release date: Dec 03, 2020
Summary: United States of Socialism: Dinesh D'Souza
WARNING! If you are a Democrat, don’t read this book. The facts about your party, now led by radical socialists, are embarrassingly despicable. If you are to survive as a Conservative or Independent, then this book and D’Sousa’s are must-reads. Be aware that your family will always live under constant attack by socialists. Know why. This is a Best Seller Summary and Analysis of the United States of Socialism by Dinesh D’Sousa. It is not the original book. Important books demand widespread readership and understanding. Dinesh D’Sousa writes to expose the Democrat socialists, their “Socialist Dream” for what a “racket” it is, and then bury them. He shares how the socialists first arose, how their diabolical techniques infuse a divisive and antagonistic form of “Identity Socialism,” and how we must rally behind Trump’s lead to stop them. Use this Best Selling Summary and Analysis book to: #1 Decide if the original text is for you. Hint: it is! #2 Get chapter-by-chapter main points and takeaways. #3 Gain a better understanding, #4 Learn what you must know in a fraction of the time. #5 Refresh your memory of the parent book. #6 Enjoy occasional editorial comments Scott Campbell penned many related books on socialism, Marxism, the Deep State, the Obamas, and Trump and is not associated with D’Sousa or his publisher in any way. Scott Campbell is wholly responsible for the content of the summary book. If you are the author, publisher, or representative of the original work, please contact the author with any concerns or comments. Identity politics is a political strategy. People of a particular identity bond into alliances to exclude all others. Race, class, religion, gender, sexual orientation, and socio-cultural background are common identities. There might be an intersection of several identities. White, Christian, heterosexual male, middle-class, and Conservative is the intersectional identity that the socialists want to alienate and annihilate. It also describes many of President Trump’s supporters. For a replacement, they might wish to a non-White, Muslim, transgender female, lower class, and Democrat--someone who, solely because of their perceived identity, will blindly follow Democrats. Identity politics’ goal is to force group agendas upon others to bring about socialist “change” towards establishing total control of a society and its wealth. Identity intersectional politics is a strategy adopted by socialists to create divides and conflicts intentionally. The Obama administration, in its second term, became experts at it. Democrat identity socialists are trying to magnify and harness this natural array of divisions to create a majority coalition to implement their desired changes. Dinesh D’Sousa is blessed with one of the most brilliant and analytical minds of our time. As a devoted supporter of our Founding Fathers, the Bill of Rights, and our Constitution, he champions Conservative causes. He defines Conservatism as holding sacred the American Revolution''s principles and promoting the “self-made man.” Embedded in free markets, the self-made man brims with ideas that lead to invention and advancement. D’Sousa likes to recognize Ben Franklin and Frederick Douglas as prime examples of self-made men. He likes Abraham Lincoln for representing the virtues of the American Revolution and the concept and importance of equal rights for all. D’Sousa migrated to America as an exchange student. He wanted to see our middle-class abundance and experience our relative freedom from corruption. He was in for a big surprise.

Summary: Becoming: Michelle Obama

release date: Dec 26, 2020
Summary: Becoming: Michelle Obama
States. Warning! This is a summary book, intended to harmonize with Michelle Obama’s compelling memoir, not to replace it. #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • OPRAH’S BOOK CLUB PICK • NAACP IMAGE AWARD WINNER • ONE OF ESSENCE’S 50 MOST IMPACTFUL BLACK BOOKS OF THE PAST 50 YEARS In a life filled with meaning and accomplishment, Michelle Obama has emerged as one of the most iconic women of our era. As First Lady of the United States of America—the first African American to serve in that role—she helped create the most welcoming and inclusive White House in history, while also establishing herself as a powerful advocate for women and girls in the U.S. and around the world, dramatically changing the ways that families pursue healthier and more active lives, and standing with her husband as he led America through some of its most harrowing moments. In her memoir, a work of deep reflection and mesmerizing storytelling, Michelle Obama invites readers into her world, chronicling the experiences that have shaped her—from her childhood on the South Side of Chicago to her years as an executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work, to her time spent at the world’s most famous address. With unerring honesty and lively wit, she describes her triumphs and her disappointments, both public and private, telling her full story as she has lived it—in her own words and on her own terms. Warm, wise, and revelatory, Becoming is the deeply personal reckoning of a woman of soul and substance who has steadily defied expectations—and whose story inspires us to do the same.

Summary and Insight: Brave New World by Aldous Huxley

release date: Feb 06, 2021
Summary and Insight: Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
Written by Aldous Huxley in 1932, Brave New World remains worthy of its label as one of the most sinister, shocking, unforgettable, and bewitching novels of all time. With his deep understanding of human nature, philosophy, science, religion, history, politics, Shakespeare, and technology, Huxley proves himself to be quite the professor as well as intellectual provocateur and satirist. Huxley’s star pupil at Eton happened to be none other than Eric Arthur Blair who would adopt the pen name, “George Orwell.” In fact, we see many similarities between Brave New World and 1984, for which I also wrote a summary. In Brave New World and 1984, Huxley and Orwell tackle what may be the most important elements of all to determine the destiny of the human species, how we interact with each other, and how the governments and big business act to influence our interactions. Both novels will undoubtedly remain perpetually timely as the authors have nailed down the essence of human nature itself in its formation of various forms of societies. In reading these books the reader cannot help but relate them to his or her life and society to measure up where they stand. The reader becomes so absorbed into the story that they become an opinionated participant. About the Best Seller Summary Series A summary should not substitute for its parent manuscript. A Best Sellers Summary book provides a harmonizing simplification of each chapter. Main points and take-aways in a fraction of the time, and at a fraction of the cost, gently embrace the reader with vital facts and themes. Some Best Seller summaries offer further insight and revelations, or even relevant added material, for example, in the form of a rebuttal. In this summary for Brave New World, a summary for the action in each chapter is accompanied by an analysis for each chapter with further insight.

John, Beloved by JESUS

release date: Nov 08, 2024
John, Beloved by JESUS
You are so loved by God that he gave you his only Son, that if you believe in him, you will not perish but you shall have eternal life. Although this is a work of fiction about the Apostle John, this book focuses on the truth of the wonderful promises of God for you. "You" is the first word of the novel, and it comprises the last non-biblical word. And you will read that many of the promises have already been kept, for as John takes his life journey, he learns again and again that from Abraham to Jesus to God''s Revelation to him that "the Lord himself will provide the Lamb." Along the way, you will meet the strong women in John''s life. His birth mother, Salome, who becomes a faithful follower of Jesus but endures much heartache throughout her life. Mary, who by the edict of Jesus, becomes John''s born-again mother and teaches him many lessons even as a grown man. You will meet the Elect Lady referenced in the Second Letter of John and Lydia, the dealer in purple cloth from the book of Acts and the first person from Europe to be baptized. There will be some ups and downs. You will witness the martyrdoms and the sufferings of the faithful Christians. Because even the apostles are sinners, you will observe some of that. And you may even have a few laughs. At times, you may become frustrated with John or some of the others. And that is a good thing. Because although this book tells their stories, the great promises of God through the sacrifice and resurrection of Jesus Christ are its most important message for you.

Summary and Expansion: 1984: George Orwell

release date: Jan 26, 2021
Summary and Expansion: 1984: George Orwell
Written in 1944, the novel entitled 1984 proved to be George Orwell’s most unnerving prophecy. Timelier than ever, Orwell’s dystopian vision of a government that will do anything to dominate people forms the basis of one of the greatest novels of all time. This book and audiobook offer uniqueness, and time and cost-efficiency. Summaries and Expansions, filled with insight and added material most relevant to Orwell’s topics and themes, become yours to enjoy. Many of his most famous scenes and passages form a solid foundation for analysis. Winston Smith reconstructs history for his nine-to-five job for the Ministry of Truth—a job similar to the one Orwell had with the BBC. With each falsehood that he writes and each truth that he buries, Winston grows to detest Big Brother more. His thoughts start to become his own, but Big Brother is constantly watching and listening. Even thinking of creating a personal journal, or falling in love, is punishable by death. Winston writes a journal and falls in love. Game on. From beginning to end, this stunning and haunting work that has blessed us with a unique literary masterpiece. 1984 creates an imaginary world that is both unforgettable and unsettling, There is no denial of the novel’s tight grip on entire generations or the influence of its warnings—an uncanny power that seems to gain strength, not lose it, with time. Orwell’s 1984 rose to the top of best seller lists in late 2020 and 2021 because the world continues to evolve from the one which gave him his experiences and motives towards one which matches his gloomy predictions in a most uncanny fashion.

Walk With Me Awhile

release date: Mar 01, 2011
Walk With Me Awhile
An intimate portrait of many of my best works from the last two decades: a collection of essays, pictures, lyrics and poetry... The essays range all across the philosophical wheel: a math proof attempt, discussions on metaphysics, sub-atomic physics, spirituality, sexuality, the dreaded modal fallacy, metaphor theory, social protest theory, music theory, cognition theory, consumerism, literature reviews, Project Management, Burkean pentad theory, visual censorship, and, well, many, many more... The Poems are, as many of you might realize, fairly fluid and abstract -- and speak truths from my heart and soul. Caveats: 1. I have been known to use the ""F"" word in some of my poetry -- just sayin'', you have been warned... 2. Some of my essays are extremely controversial, as I tend to kick the elephant in the middle of the room from time to time... This would be a fantastic piece to set on your coffee table (unless, of course, you expect young children of a reading age to wander through unattended)...

Mobile Communication

release date: Sep 05, 2017
Mobile Communication
Mobile Communication covers a wide range of topics. These include the replacement of co-present interaction with mediated contact and analysis of mobile-based cohesion and gender. The authors also explore the role of media choice and its effect on the quality as well as quantity of social cohesion. Other topics include mobile communication and communities of interest; and mobile communication, cohesion, and youth.This volume brings together scholars from around the world to consider how mobile communication both builds and destroys our sense of social cohesion. There is no question that uses of technology can lead to increased cohesion within personal communities. For example, this volume includes research on caravan couples in Australia, factory workers in China, young couples in Germany, citizens in Slovenia, and sports clubs in Ireland. It also includes research on drunken calls between university students in the US, calls of international students in Switzerland and communications between immigrant women in Melbourne, Australia.However, the contributors also argue that as social networks become inundated with mobile communication users, these users may become increasingly isolated and social division can ensue.

AMC Javelin, AMX, and Muscle Car Restoration 1968-1974
There was a time when AMC performance was more of an afterthought to the muscle car era.

Summary & Rebuttal: A Promised Land: Barack Obama

release date: Jan 14, 2021
Summary & Rebuttal: A Promised Land: Barack Obama
Warning! This is a summary, intended to rebut, with over 700 total pages, A Promised Land, the top-selling non-fiction book in 2020. This book is not to replace Obama''s memoir, but to bury it. Obama''s time in prep school showed more passion for his jump-shot and partying than studying. We experience his college years under the admitted influence of Marxism, and into Harvard Law and the alleged arrangement to become the President of the Law Review-- which would launch his political career via The NY Times. We sample his rapid rise to the Senate, and then the Presidency, under the tutelage of Chicago''s Deep State professionals like David Axelrod and Valerie Jarrett. Favored candidates, even incumbents, step aside or hand him their campaign, and dirt leaked from sealed court documents buries his opponents. His path to the Presidency miraculously cleared, he finds the keynote tossed at his feet by John Kerry at the DNC to make him famous. John Kerry’s staff infuses his campaign. John McCain ensures Obama’s success. Obama spends more than all other previous Presidents combined, and harms America in doing so. Obama reveals compromising situations and connections, arousing more suspicion. Brief and interspersed negative comments, clearly marked in Section One, catalyze a full-throttle rebuttal in Section Two. Obama not only left out key facts, like that his family had strong communist ties, or that he governed under the influence of Zbigniew Brzezinski, Iranian Islamist Valerie Jarrett, and Jesse Jackson. Obama, according to Pulitzer-prize-winning author Seymore Hersh, lied about his alleged killing of Osama bin Laden for a boost in the polls. The Rebuttal proves itself to be well-documented and bulletproof. Obama, and his arranged mate and children, proved not to be what they seem.
