In his first novel, Djaba can be perceived as a multifaceted spirit that agitates the souls of his characters, who deal with only seemingly parallel stories. In fact, in the multitude of the events which surround the land where these people move and try to survive, their everyday stories end up flowing into a common existence and invite to a profound reflection of ourselves that should start from the simplest things in life, which are often hidden to the eye. Djaba’s novel Troubles of Madman Kind & little Caleb: Chukka’s return wants to be a hymn to life and a promise of peace to a land as much beloved as suffered: it is a solemn prayer traced in a style never taken for granted but which closely catches the passions which desperately ask to be heard in silence. Djaba is both confessor and interpreter of the deepest and commonest human need: to understand, to respect and to tolerate the differences, in the name of solidarity and universal love. Sackey Anthony Djaba is an accredited marine surveyor and a marine environmental scientist who has worked in the marine offshore industry for several years. Upon graduation with a B.S. in Natural Science from the Regional Maritime University, he was privileged to board several heavy-lift construction vessels, such as Seven Artic and Borealis, Polar Onyx, Lewek Constellation on various offshore projects, and between 2017 and 2022, he has ten peer-review journal publications with various international journals, including Springer Nature Journal of Maritime Studies, and Journal of Shipping and Trade a book publication with LAP Academic Publishers after completing his postgraduate studies in Marine Survey, Marine Environmental Science, and Business Administration. Most of his creative literary works of poetry and stories are inspired by his wife and nature. Troubles of Madman Kind & little Caleb: Chukka’s return, published with Europe Books, is his first novel.

I Will Survive is the story of Gloria Gaynor, America's "Queen of Disco." It is the story of riches and fame, despair, and finally salvation. Her meteoric rise to stardom in the mid-1970s was nothing short of phenomenal, and hits poured forth that pushed her to the top of the charts, including "Honey Bee," "I Got You Under My Skin," "Never Can Say Goodbye," and the song that has immortalized her, "I Will Survive," which became a #1 international gold seller. With that song, Gloria heralded the international rise of disco that became synonymous with a way of life in the fast lane - the sweaty bodies at Studio 54, the lines of cocaine, the indescribable feeling that you could always be at the top of your game and never come down. But down she came after her early stardom, and problems followed in the wake, including the death of her mother, whose love had anchored the young singer, as well as constant battles with weight, drugs, and alcohol. While her fans always imagined her to be rich, her personal finances collapsed due to poor management; and while many envied her, she felt completely empty inside. In the early 1980s, sustained by her marriage to music publisher Linwood Simon, Gloria took three years off and reflected upon her life. She visited churches and revisited her mother's old Bible. Discovering the world of gospel, she made a commitment to Christ that sustains her to this day.

Ptolemy's Almagest is one of the most influential scientific works in history. A masterpiece of technical exposition, it was the basic textbook of astronomy for more than a thousand years, and still is the main source for our knowledge of ancient astronomy.

It contains numerous corrections derived from medieval Arabic translations and extensive footnotes that take account of the great progress in understanding the work made in this century, due to the discovery of Babylonian records and other researches. It is designed to stand by itself as an interpretation of the original, but it will also be useful as an aid to reading the Greek text.
