My Language Affairs: The Making of a Polyglot – This 109-paged “tell-all” book deals with the who, where, when, how and why of Dr. Powe’s courtships with various world languages and the “children” (i.e. publications) that resulted from these various affairs. If the courtship involved instruction in an institution of higher learning, the relationship is here deemed an official marriage. On the other hand, if the affair took place without formal instruction, it is considered illicit. Needless to say, his marriages (wives) were many as were his illicit relationships (mistresses). Some produced many fruits, whereas others produced few or none. But regardless of the length and fertility of the affair, at least some joy and a great deal of personal satisfaction was produced by his relationship with all of these “lovely language ladies” and he transmits the reason for his attraction and the fruits of the relationships with each. |

My Nomadic Existence Book 1 – a book detailing significant events in my life that occurred between August 16, 2024 through December 31st, 2025. It begins with homelessness in the US and the loss of the use of my left leg in Mauritius, and continues with a six-month long period of rehabilitation in India. Indeed, I had arrived in India in a wheel chair and had it not been for the intervention of several dear friends in Tamil Nadu, I would have left in a coffin. It is, however, also a period in which I experienced post traumatic growth (PTG) enabling me to begin “manifesting” and to write three of my most intriguing books in less than three weeks. After more than 16 arduous months on the road with extended stays in Madison, New York, Guatemala, Colombia, Mauritius, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia and India) the journey ends triumphantly with two animal sacrifices in Villupuram. |

The Nature of the Cosmos According to Pho – a book that incorporates my understanding of umlabalaba as a hologram of the universe with elements of a newly acquired understanding of quantum physics. This resulted in the discovery of a unique structure one could call the “god-particle” whose structure (for the human species) can be construed to have the shape of a three-dimensional umlabalaba board. |

Umlabalaba: A key to understanding Human Existence – A collection of articles dealing with umlabalaba (a Zulu board game similar to tic tac toe) that presents a revealing and comprehensive view of human existence based on implications and symbolism found in the game. Dr. Powe asserts the game is a hologram of the universe and has a greater value in teaching cognitive and survival skills to both young and old than chess. The articles reveal compelling relationships of the game both to the Dao, as well as to the Ancient Egyptian and Mayan Creation myths. |
