This book is a comprehensive grammar of Hausa, one of the largest and most important languages of Africa. Hausa is spoken by some 35 million people as a first language and approximately 15 million more as a second language. Paul Newman, a world authority on the Hausa language, draws on two centuries of Hausa linguistic scholarship to provide the most authoritative and detailed grammar of the language ever written. Unlike other grammars, this book is organized alphabetically. Readers will appreciate the ease with which they can find the specific individual topics that interest them. The grammar covers such expected topics as tonology, noun plurals, and verbal tense/aspect as well as often neglected topics, including verbal idioms, proper names, and language games. Newman also incorporates historical linguistic notes that explain and explicate current Hausa phenomena, especially puzzling anomalies, in terms of their Chadic and Afroasiatic origins.

It all began with Adam and Eve, with their choices to disobey God and give into Satan's lies about God's plans. Due to their choices, generations have carried an Adamic nature, which was rectified through the Second Adam, Jesus. Author Paul Newman seeks to educate readers on how Adam and Eve are similar to Jesus and the Church in his new comparison study, The 2nd Adam and the Deception of His Eve. He begins with detailing Adam and Eve's creation in the image of God, instilled with a free will. Since God doesn't force His love on people, Eve's deception by Satan occurred through her free will and not knowing God's Word. Paul continues to draw comparisons among several Bible stories, relating them to Jesus and His Eve, the Bride of Christ. The vulnerability of Eve is in us, until we remember we are saved by His grace through Jesus.
