Money, Blood & Conscience
Autor David Steinmanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 dec 2019
An idealistic American TV producer starts a charity for famine victims amid Ethiopia's civil war. "You're not in California here," Ethiopia's rebel leader-turned-prime minister reminds him. "This is a different world."
In 1993, a prince and princess from Ethiopia's 2,500-year-old Solomonic Dynasty reached out to an international revolutionary who'd played a behind-the-scenes role in the overthrow of Haiti's notorious "Baby Doc" Duvalier. Could he help free Ethiopia's most famous political prisoner and liberate its people from a reign of terror?
Now that revolutionary, David Steinman, has drawn on his extraordinary, real-life adventure to write a novel about Ethiopia's present-day struggle for freedom. Part investigative journalism and part parable, it depicts the cover-up of a holocaust and raises questions about the ends and means of Western policy in shadowy places.
Money, Blood and Conscience superbly portrays the fight by the world's poorest for food and justice, drawing the reader into a magnificent, heartbreaking crusade for human dignity.

Notă biografică
DAVID STEINMAN was a consulting expert to the U.S. National Security Council regarding the ouster of Haiti's Duvalier regime that began the cascade of falling right wing dictatorships at the end of the twentieth century. He later coordinated private support for Southeast Asian anti-Communist resistance groups.
While serving as senior foreign adviser to Ethiopia's democracy movement, Steinman co-planned its 2005 election and civil disobedience campaign voted that year's "Most Important African Event" in a BBC poll. It set in motion the series of momentous changes now underway in this key Western ally, Africa's second most populous country, and inspired Money, Blood and Conscience.
In December 2020, Mr. Steinman filed a complaint with the International Criminal Court that accused World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Adhanom of crimes against humanity committed as an Ethiopian official. News of the complaint was featured on the London Times' front page and went viral, exposing Tedros' criminality to the world.
David Steinman has a degree in Economics from the Wharton School. He was nominated for the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize.
