Ex-FBI Steve Vail is visiting Kate Bannon, the Assistant Director at the FBI, for what he thinks is a well-earned and romantic New Years Eve in Washington, DC, when he quickly finds himself knee-deep in a very complicated and unusual case.
A man known simply as Calculus, an intelligence officer at the Russian embassy, has approached the FBI claiming he has a list naming several Americans who are supplying confidential government information to the Russian secret service. All he asks in exchange for the list is a quarter of a million dollars for each traitor the FBI nabs. But then Calculus informs the FBI that he’s been suddenly recalled to Moscow, and the Bureau suspects the worst: the Russians are onto Calculus (if they don’t actually have him in custody), probably have access to his list, and will be after the traitors to kill them soon unless the FBI can find them first.
The FBI knows they have to find Calculus and everyone on the list before the Russians do, but, without knowing exactly who is on the list, they also have to keep the operation quiet. Once again, Vail is their man. He’s the perfect guy for this kind of under-the-radar investigation. But finding Calculus and his list of turncoats isn’t going to be easy. In fact, it’s going to be downright deadly.
The rousing follow-up to the New York Times bestselling The Bricklayer.
Agent Xby Noah Boyd
Noah Boyd is a former FBI agent who spent more than twenty years working on some of the Bureau’s toughest investigations.

If Wishes Were Horses
Still reeling from the deaths of his wife and son at the hands of a drunk driver, Wyatt Blaine is searching for a reason to go on. Unable to find closure, he turns to one of his late wife Krista’s passions, an equine therapy program for troubled teens at the family ranch. With the help of his minister and the support of the local community, Wyatt re-starts the program and begins to see the light at the tunnel.
But just as the program is about to start, Gabby Powers, the widow of the man responsible for the death of Wyatt’s family, begs his permission to include her son Trevor in the program. Over time, Trevor begins to respond, as Wyatt and Gabby find surprising new aspects to their already complex relationship. As these three troubled souls who were once separated by a common tragedy near mutual closure, they find that they must examine the true natures of love and forgiveness in ways that they had never imagined.
In the spirit of Nicholas Sparks, Robert Barclay has crafted a deeply moving story of love, hope, and forgiveness.
by Robert Barclay
As lives torn apart by a common tragedy slowly heal, two damaged souls get a second chance at love.

Two best friends. Lucy Jorik is the daughter of the former President of the United States; Meg Koranda, the offspring of Hollywood legends. One of them is getting ready to marry Ted Beaudine. The other is not happy about it. Not happy at all.
When Meg breaks up her best friend’s wedding to the favorite son of Wynette, Texas, she knows she’s done the right thing, even though no one else seems to agree. Faster than Lucy can say, “I don’t,” Meg becomes the most hated woman in town. A town where she’s stuck with a broken down car, an empty wallet, and a very angry bridegroom… This is the book fans of Susan Elizabeth Phillips have been demanding for years, the story that brings together beloved characters from her former books, with the irresistible Ted Beaudine at its heart. Ted better known as “little Teddy,” the nine-year-old heartbreak kid from Phillips’ first bestseller, FANCY PANTS and as “young Teddy,” the hunky new college graduate in LADY BE GOOD.
Now Ted Beaudine is all grown up…and Meg Koranda has more than met her match. Without her famous parents at her back, can she survive on her own wits? Doubtful.
Still… She’s already broke and homeless. What’s the worst that can happen? Lose her heart to Mr. Irresistible? Not likely. Not likely at all…
Call Me Irresistibleby Susan Elizabeth Phillips
Ted, Lucy and Meg are all grown up in the funniest love story of the year.

About to turn thirty, Conor Grennan planned a year-long trip around the world. He started his trip with a three-month stint volunteering in the Little Princes Orphanage in war-torn Nepal. What was supposed to be just a three-month experience changed Conor’s life, and the lives of countless others.
While playing on the roof of the orphanage, Conor was approached by a woman who would turn out to be the mother of two of the wards. Many of the little princes were not orphans but rather had been taken from their homes and families by child traffickers. In addition to losing two of her boys, this woman, while under the control of a human trafficker, was doing her best to keep seven other terrified kids alive in her mud hut. Conor’s life changed in those moments. After securing spots in an orphanage for all seven and arranging for an excellent local staff to run the Little Princes orphanage, Conor escaped Nepal, one day before revolution erupted in Kathmandu, with the King’s police shooting protestors in the streets.
After arriving home, Conor received a devastating email reporting that the seven kids had disappeared, snatched once again by the same trafficker. Soon he was back in Kathmandu, riding through the chaotic streets on the back of a local’s motorcycle, searching for his kids, seven needles in a corrupt haystack. And that is where Conor’s story begins.
Conor pledged to start a new orphanage for these seven and to start an entire new program dedicated to reuniting kids with their lost families. He lived under constant fear of retribution from the traffickers, confronted drunken Maoist soldiers in the dark of night, and walked for four weeks on an injured leg with little and sometimes no food, waiting to be rescued by a World Food Organization helicopter that never arrived.
Conor’s team has reconnected almost 300 families with children they feared were lost to them forever.
The epic true story of one man’s battle to save the lost children of Nepal and how he found himself in the process.

“They had read the signs, they said: a sea of horses, a conference of birds, the north star in alignment with the moon. It was a prophecy, they said, that their last king had given on his deathwatch, but there was no time to explain…“
Late in the summer of 1877, as the Tsar’s Royal Cavalry descends on the defenseless Ottoman outpost of Constanta, and a flock of purple and white hoopoes suddenly appears over the town, Eleonora Cohen is brought into the world by a mysterious pair of Tartar midwives who arrive only minutes before the birth. Eleonora, whose mother dies during labor, is raised by her father Yakob, a carpet merchant, and her stern and resentful stepmother. From the moment Eleonora learns to read, her father recognizes that she is an extraordinarily gifted child, a prodigy. When he sets off by boat for Stamboul on business, his eight-year old daughter, unable to bear the separation, stows away in one of his trunks crammed with carpets. On the shores of the Bosporus, in the house of her father’s business partner Moncef Bey, a new life awaits Eleonora. Books, backgammon, sumptuous new dresses, markets, cafes, and some mysterious events she cannot yet decipher. For in Stamboul in 1886 people are not always what they seem. Her tutor, an American minister and educator, may also be a spy. The kindly though elusive Moncef Bey has a past history of secret societies and political intrigue. And what to make of the eccentric though charming Sultan Abdulhamid II himself, beleaguered on all sides as his multi-ethnic Empire crumbles?
THE ORACLE OF STAMBOUL is a marvelously evocative, magical historical novel that will transport readers to another time and place-romantic, exotic, yet perhaps not so different from our own.
An utterly enchanting debut novel.

Being WrongAdventures in the Margin of Error
Kathryn Schulz
Trade Paperback
“A funny and philosophical meditation on why error is mostly a humane, courageous andextremely desirable human trait.”—Dwight Garner, New York Times
To err is human. Yet most of us go through life assuming (and sometimes insisting)that we are right about nearly everything. But if being wrong is so natural, why dowe react to our errors with surprise, denial, defensiveness, and shame?
Being Wrong explores why we find it so gratifying to be right and so maddening tobe mistaken, and how this attitude corrodes relationships—whether between familymembers, colleagues, neighbors, or nations. Journalist Kathryn Schulz takes us on afascinating tour of human fallibility, from wrongful convictions to no-fault divorce;medical mistakes to misadventures at sea; failed prophecies to false memories; “Itold you so!” to “Mistakes were made.” Drawing on thinkers as varied as Augustine,Darwin, Freud, Gertrude Stein, Alan Greenspan, and Groucho Marx, she proposes anew way of looking at wrongness in which error is both a given and a gift—one thatcan transform our worldviews, our relationships, and, most profoundly, ourselves.

The WhaleIn Search of the Giants of the Sea
Philip Hoare
Trade Paperback
“Genius . . . The Whale is a rhapsodic meditation on all things cetacean. Hoare is always onthe lookout for the revealing detail. He also has a finely tuned sense of perspective andpacing.” —Nathaniel Philbrick, New York Times Book Review
From his childhood fascination with the gigantic Natural History Museum model of ablue whale to his adult encounters with the living animals in the Atlantic Ocean,Philip Hoare has been obsessed with whales. Journeying through human andnatural history, The Whale is the result of his voyage of discovery into the heart ofthis obsession and the book that inspired it: Herman Melville’s Moby-Dick.
Diving deep into their domain, Hoare shows us these mysterious creatures as theyhave never been seen before. Following in Ishmael’s footsteps, he explores thetroubled history of man and whale; visits the historic whaling locales of NewBedford, Nantucket, and the Azores; and traces the whale’s cultural history fromJonah to Free Willy. An extraordinary journey into the world of the largest, loudest,oldest animal ever to have existed, The Whale is an unforgettable and often movingattempt to explain why these strange and beautiful animals still exert such apowerful hold on our imagination.

As the days and years pile up, the mystery of her disappearance growskaleidoscopically.

Ron Rash
Trade Paperback
New York Times Bestselling Author
“A slender set of spare and menacing depictions of the unforgiving ways of life in ruralAppalachia, Burning Bright finds a narrow sweet spot between Raymond Carver’sminimalism and William Faulkner’s Gothic.”—Washington Post
"If you haven't heard of the Southern writer Ron Rash, it is time you should."-Cleveland Plain Dealer
"In the front ranks of the best American novelists."-Pat Conroy
In Burning Bright, the award-winning and New York Times bestselling author of thebestselling Serena captures the complexities of the dichotomous and fractious landthat is Appalachia-a muse; a siren; a rugged, brutal landscape of exceptionalbeauty, promise, and suffering. The stories span the years from the Civil War to thepresent day, and Rash's historical and modern settings are sewn together in ahauntingly beautiful patchwork of suspense and myth, populated by raw andunforgettable characters mined from the landscape.
In these stories, Rash brings to light a previously unexplored territory, hidden inplain sight-first a landscape, and then the dark yet lyrical heart and the alluringlymelancholy soul of his characters and their home.

Bringing Adam HomeThe Abduction That Changed America
Les Standifordwith Det. Sgt. Joe Matthews
"This tale of the most significant missing child case since the Lindbergh's—that of TV hostJohn Walsh's son Adam and the 25 year search for his killer—is truly terrific. A taut,compelling and often touching book about a long march to justice."— Scott Turow
...
Before six-year-old Adam Walsh’s abduction and murder in 1981, there were nochildren’s faces on milk cartons, no Amber Alerts, no national Center for Missing andAbused Children, no federal databases for crimes against children, no registration ofpedophiles. Kids innocently played outdoors, unmonitored by nervous parents. Theshock of Adam’s murder and the inability of police to find his killer altered parentalbehavior, and, due in large part to the efforts of Adam’s parents, John and RevéWalsh, law enforcement transformed its practices to better protect children.
But while our lives have been significantly changed by the Adam Walsh case, few ofus know the whole story—how, after 27 years of relentless investigation, decoratedMiami Beach homicide detective Joe Matthews finally identified Adam’s killer. BringingAdam Home is the definitive account of this harrowing crime and its aftermath, atrue story of tragedy, love, faith, and dedication. It reveals the pain and tenacity ofa family determined to find justice, the failed police work that allowed a killer toremain uncharged, and the determined efforts of one cop who accomplished whatan entire system of law enforcement could not.Harrowing...

A Widow's StoryA Memoir
Joyce Carol Oates
New York Times Bestselling Author
The acclaimed author’s poignant, intimate memoir—a work unlike anything she’s writtenbefore—about the unexpected death of her husband of 46 years and its wrenching,surprising aftermath
“My husband died, my life collapsed.”On a February morning in 2008, Joyce Carol Oates drove her ailing husband,Raymond Smith, to the emergency room of the Princeton Medical Center where hewas diagnosed with pneumonia. Both Joyce and Ray expected him to be releasedin a day or two. But in less than a week, even as Joyce was preparing for hisdischarge, Ray was dead from a hospital-acquired virulent infection and Joyce wassuddenly faced—totally unprepared—with the stunning reality of widowhood. A Widow’s Story illuminates one woman's struggle to comprehend a life absent ofthe partnership that had sustained and defined her for nearly half a century. Asnever before, Joyce Carol Oates shares the derangement of denial, the anguish ofloss, the disorientation of the survivor amid a nightmare of "death duties," and thesolace of friendship. She writes unflinchingly of the experience of grief—the almostunbearable suspense of the hospital vigil, the treacherous "pools" of memory thatsurround us, the vocabulary of illness, the absurdities of commercialized forms ofmourning. Here is a frank acknowledgement of the widow's desperation—onlygradually yielding to the recognition...

The CrusadesThomas Asbridge
Trade Paperback
From a renowned historian who writes with “maximum vividness” (The New Yorker) comesthe most authoritative, readable single-volume history available of the brutal struggle forthe Holy Land
Nine hundred years ago, a vast Christian army, summoned to holy war by the Pope,rampaged through the Muslim world of the eastern Mediterranean, seizingpossession of Jerusalem, a city revered by both faiths. Over the two hundred yearsthat followed, Islam and Christianity—both firm in the belief that they were at God’swork—fought for dominion of the Holy Land, clashing in a succession of chillinglybrutal wars: the Crusades.
For the first time, Thomas Asbridge tells the story of that epic struggle from theperspective of both Christians and Muslims. A vivid and fast-paced narrative history,The Crusades exposes the full horror, passion, and barbaric grandeur of theCrusading era, leading us into a world of legendary champions—such as Richard theLionheart and Saladin—shadowy assassins, poet-warriors, and pious visionaries;across the desert sands of Egypt to the verdant forests of Lebanon; and throughthe ancient cities of Constantinople, Cairo, and Damascus.
Drawing on painstaking original research and an intimate knowledge of the NearEast, Asbridge uncovers what drove Muslims and Christians alike to embrace theideals of jihad and crusade, revealing how these holy...

What is a woman? To what extent is femininity a performance? Writing with theextraordinary awareness and endless curiosity that have defined his entire oeuvre,William T. Vollmann takes an in-depth look into the Japanese craft of Noh theater,using the medium as a prism to reveal the conception of beauty itself.
Sweeping readers from the dressing room of one of Japan’s most famous Nohactors to a transvestite bar in the red-light district of Kabukicho, Kissing the Maskexplores the enigma surrounding Noh theater and the traditions that have made itintrinsic to Japanese culture for centuries. Vollmann then widens his scope toencompass such modern artists of attraction and loss as Mishima, Kawabata, andeven Andrew Wyeth. From old Norse poetry to Greek cult statues, from Japan’smost elite geisha dancers to American makeup artists, from Kabuki impersonators totransgendered women in Los Angeles, Vollmann works to extract the secrets ofstaged femininity and the mystery of perceived and expressed beauty.

"What a wonderful book. Philip...
For nearly a decade, Philip Connors has spent half of each year in a 7’x7’ firelookout tower, 10,000-feet above the ground in one of the remotest territories ofNew Mexico. One of the least developed parts of the country, the first regiondesignated as an official wilderness area in the world, the section he tends is alsoone of the most fire-prone, suffering more than 30,000 lightning strikes each year.Written with gusto, charm, and sense of history, Fire Season captures the wonderand grandeur of this most unusual job and place: the eerie pleasure of solitude; thestrange dance of communion and mistrust with its animal inhabitants; and themajesty, might, and beauty of untamed fire at its wildest.
Connors’ time up on the peak is filled with drama—there are fires large and small;spectacular midnight lightning storms and silent mornings awakening above theclouds; surprise encounters with long-distance hikers, smokejumpers, bobcats,black bears, and an abandoned, dying fawn.
Filled with Connors’ heartfelt reflections on our place in the wild, on other writerswho have worked as lookouts—Jack Kerouac, Edward Abbey, Norman Maclean, GarySnyder—and...

Periodic TalesA Cultural History of the Elements, from Arsenic to Zinc
Hugh Aldersey-Williams
In the tradition of Genome and The Age of Wonder comes a prize-winning science writer’scaptivating look at how the elements are woven into our culture, history, and language
Like the alphabet, the calendar or the zodiac, the Periodic Table classifying thechemical elements—the fundamental ingredients of all matter—offers a system oforder in our world. But while most of us learned the basics about these buildingblocks, many of the elements themselves remain a mystery. What does xenon looklike? How does iodine exist in nature? How did krypton get its name? What isbromine used for?
Periodic Tales is a passionate and compelling journey that takes us into the past andback to the future, into mines and artists’ studios, factories and cathedrals, forestsand the seas to discover the true stories about the elements that make up ouruniverse. Combining history, biography mythology, chemistry, politics, geography,geology, astronomy, and religion, Hugh Aldersey-Williams reveals how the RomanEmpire was built on bronze, the Spanish on gold, the British on iron and coal. Heexplains why we regard lead as grave, tin as cheap, and silver as virginal. And heshows how their very nomenclature speaks of history. Elements discovered duringthe Enlightenment (titanium, niobium, palladium, uranium) have names derived fromClassical mythology, while those found during the 19th century honored...

A Thousand Times More Fair offers a fresh reading of 10 seminal Shakespeareanplays—from The Merchant of Venus and Hamlet to The Tempest and HenryV—showing how they provide parables of justice relevant to contemporary life. Fromthe roles of lawyers, judges, and juries to the power and limitations of authority,civil disobedience to vigilantism, love and the search for the truth, Shakespeare’scannon offers an ideal starting point to explore the nature of a just society, themorals and ethics that shape it, and the threats that can lead to its demise.

Dr. Henry Cloud
Harper Business
From the bestselling author of Integrity, a mindset-shifting book that challenges us toproactively correct the bad and the broken in our lives to make room for the personal andprofessional growth we really want
Cutting losses. Raising the white flag. Getting out. Giving up.
While endings are a natural part of life, we often experience them with a sense ofsadness, hesitation, resignation, or regret. But psychologist and bestselling authorDr. Henry Cloud sees endings differently. How would our personal and professionallives improve if we were to forget about the idea of failure and instead see endingsas a necessary step to something better?
In this insightful and deeply empathetic book, Dr. Cloud demonstrates that, whenhandled well, “necessary endings” allow us to end pain, foster growth, reachpersonal and professional goals, and live better lives. However, when endings arehandled poorly—as is too often the case—good opportunities can be lost, andmisery repeated. Drawing on years of experience as an executive coach andpsychotherapist, Dr. Cloud offers a mixture of advice and anecdotes to help readersunderstand their behavior, change it, and ultimately improve their well-being.
Knowing when and how to let go when something isn’t working—whether it’s acareer choice, a business venture, or a personal relationship—is essential forhappiness and success....

Douglas Brinkley
New York Times Bestselling Author
In this follow up to his acclaimed Wilderness Warrior, New York Times bestsellinghistorian Douglas Brinkley offers a fascinating look at Alaska's wilderness
The Quiet World documents the heroic fight to save wild Alaska—Mount McKinley,the Tongass and Chugach National Forests, Gates of the Arctic, Glacier Bay, and theCoastal Plain of the Beaufort Sea, among other treasured landscapes—fromdespoilers. Award-winning historian Douglas Brinkley traces the WildernessMovement in Alaska from Theodore Roosevelt to Dwight D. Eisenhower.

Based on extensive new archival research,Brinkley showcases how a band of determined environmentalists—includingSupreme Court Justice William O.

Brinkley introduces a colorful gallery of characters influential in the preservingAlaska's wilderness wealth: charming Ivy-league explorer Charles Sheldon, who ledthe campaign to create Denali National Park; intrepid Bob Marshall, who lived in theArctic village of Wiseman and co-founded The...

Courtiers, politicians, businessmen, rebels,merchants, and scholars, the Chalabis enjoyed vast privilege, until the end of the1950s when they were forced to flee to the land of exile, myth, and imaginationwhere their beloved homeland took on the quality of a phantom country.

American UprisingThe Untold Story of America's Largest Slave Revolt
Daniel Rasmussen
A gripping and deeply revealing history of the 1811 New Orleans slave rebellion thatprovides new insight into American expansionism and the path to the Civil War, from abrilliant young writer
"This book would be a major accomplishment for any historian; for an historian at such...
In January 1811, a group of around 500 enslaved men, dressed in military uniformsand armed with guns, cane knives, and axes, rose up from the slave plantationsaround New Orleans and set out to conquer the city. They decided that they woulddie before they would work another day of back-breaking labor in the hot Louisianasun. Ethnically diverse, politically astute, and highly organized, this slave armychallenged not only the economic system of plantation agriculture but also Americanexpansion. Their march represented the largest act of armed resistance againstslavery in the history of the United States—and one of the defining moments in thehistory of New Orleans and the nation.
American Uprising is the riveting and long-neglected story of this elaborate plot,the rebel army’s dramatic march on the city and its shocking conclusion. No NorthAmerican slave uprising—not Gabriel Prosser, not Denmark Vesey, not NatTurner—has rivaled the scale of this rebellion either in terms of the number of theslaves involved or in terms of the number who were killed. Over 100 slaves wereslaughtered by federal troops and French planters, who then sought to write theevent out of history and...

Death by LiberalismThe Fatal Outcome of Well-Meaning Liberal Policies
J. R. Dunn
A center right conservative offers a cogent analysis of how liberalism has not only failed asan ideology but has proven fatal to citizens and societies around the world
Liberalism sees itself as a rational and helpful philosophy that seeks to use thebenign power of government to improve our safety, health, and general welfare. Indoing so it relies on the authority of experts to devise the most rational means ofrealizing these goals. Unfortunately, when these well-meaning plans go awry, asthey too often do, the results can be disastrous, even fatal. As J. R. Dunnpersuasively argues, death by liberalism occurs in all fields and at all levels ofsociety. Motorists, workers, children taken under the state’s protection—all havefallen victim to liberals, and the numbers are staggering. Liberalism can beimplicated in the deaths of hundreds of thousands in this country and millionsworldwide.
Dunn’s deliberative account takes no cheap shots, but relies on substantiatedfactual arguments, to show liberalism’s fatal consequences on numerous facets ofour lives, from crime and abortion to fuel efficiency standards and the banning ofDDT, to gun control and urban renewal. In addition, Dunn pinpoints a number ofareas in which liberal interventions-in-the-making are likely to produce more pain,suffering, and death such as legal euthanasia, and identifies some of the leadingliberals,...

Inventing George WashingtonAmerica's Founder, in Myth and Memory
Edward G. Lengel
An entertaining and erudite history that offers a fresh look at America's first FoundingFather, the creation of his mythos, and what it means for our nation and ourselves
George Washington’s death on December 14, 1799 dealt a dreadful blow to publicmorale. For three decades, Americans had depended on his leadership to guidethem through every trial. At the cusp of a new century, the fledgling nation, caughtin another war, this time with their former ally, France, desperately needed tobelieve that Washington was—and would continue to be—there for them.
Thus began the extraordinary immortalization of this towering historical figure. InInventing George Washington, historian Edward G. Lengel shows how the latepresident and war hero continued to serve his nation on two distinct levels. Thepublic Washington evolved into an eternal symbol as the “Father of His Country,”while the private man remained at the periphery of the national vision—always justout of reach—for successive generations yearning to know him as never before.
Both images, public and private, were vital to Americans’ perceptions of their nation,and of themselves. Yet over time, as Lengel shows, the contrasting andsimultaneous urges to deify Washington as a symbol and understand him as a manproduced tensions that have played out in every generation. As some...

Marshalling JusticeThe Early Civil Rights Letters of Thurgood Marshall
Michael G. Long
Amistad
Collected together for the first time, the selected letters of one of the most influentialand important activists in the American Civil Rights movement, the brilliant legal mindand footsoldier for justice, Thurgood Marshall
For 20 years before Martin Luther King Jr. assumed leadership of theMontgomery bus boycott in 1955, a rebellious young attorney with the NationalAssociation for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) named ThurgoodMarshall struggled tirelessly to combat violence against blacks as well as racialdiscrimination and segregation—in schools, transportation, the military,businesses, and voting booths across America. Compiled by Michael G. Long,this collection of letters written during Marshall’s tenure with the NAACP—longbefore he became a Supreme Court justice—reveals this remarkable man’sextraordinary intellectual development and invaluable contributions to the civilrights movement, highlighting his invaluable work in helping secure equality andjustice for all Americans.
Long traces Marshall’s correspondence with the most powerful leaders of hisday—-J. Edgar Hoover, Dwight D. Eisenhower, NAACP leader Walter White, andmany others—cataloging how Marshall was accomplishing in the courts whatKing would work to do from the pulpit and on the streets. Through theseletters, we discover a startling new portrait of Marshall and a deeperunderstanding of the influences that spurred his relentless advocacy forsociety’s most vulnerable.

Scott Brown
The extraordinary personal story of a man who, against all odds, rose up to become one ofAmerica's most surprising and promising new political figures, Senator Scott Brown
Scott Brown's greatest win did not occur on a cold January election night in 2010when he came from behind to capture the U.S. Senate seat held by Ted Kennedy fornearly 50 years. It began when he survived a savage beating at the drunken, dirty-finger nail hands of a stepfather when he was barely six years old, while trying toprotect his mother. In this gripping memoir of resilience and redemption, Brown tellsthe story of his difficult, often nomadic life, shunted from house to apartment, andtown-to-town, 17 times over his first 18 years. He somehow thrived despite amostly absent father who spun elaborate tales of his own life and success, but whonever displayed a single photo of his young son in his home. By the time Brownreached adulthood, his father had married four separate times. So had his mother,in relationships frequently stained with alcohol, anger, and even violence. For nearlytwo decades growing up, Brown endured innumerable hardships and challenges,even stealing extra food to eat. He was periodically shunted off to live withrelatives, his possessions wrapped in a few old blankets. Saved by basketball, hewas the boy who shoveled snow off...

The Thank You Economy isn't some abstract concept or wacky business strategy. It'sthe way we buy and sell, the way we're interacting as consumers, as employees, asentrepreneurs on all levels, right now. The way our marketplace functions has beenevolving right before our eyes. Top-down, one-way exchanges are gone, replacedby relationships based on open, honest, and constant communication betweencustomers and business. Today, individuals and brands that "out-care" and "out-love" their competition—those emphasizing quality, value, responsiveness, andattention to detail, among other essentials—see the biggest returns.
Gary Vaynerchuk contends that the people and companies harnessing the word-of-mouth power provided by multiplatform media—those that can shift their outlookand operations to be more customer-aware and fan-friendly—will pull away from thepack and profit in today's markets. In The Thank You Economy, he dissects thecompanies on the leading edge, showing how they are succeeding—and sometimesfailing. Laying out the ideas and insight that support this enormous change,Vaynerchuk explores these emerging connections—from consumer to consumer andbusiness to business and everything in between. Passionate and persuasive, hereminds us that, surviving and thriving today it takes more than just hard work—ittakes a heartfelt thanks...

Cinderella Ate My DaughterDispatches from the Front Lines of the New Girlie-Girl Culture
Peggy Orenstein
New York Times Bestselling Author
The acclaimed author of the groundbreaking bestseller Schoolgirls reveals the dark side ofpink and pretty in this wake up call to parents: the rise of the girlie-girl, she warns, is notthat innocent
Pink and pretty or predatory and hardened, sexualized girlhood influences ourdaughters' lives from infancy onward, telling them that their image is moreimportant than their essence—that how a girl looks matters more than who she is.Somewhere between the exhilarating rise of Girl Power in the 1990s and today, thepursuit of physical perfection has been recast as a source—the source—of femaleempowerment. And commercialization—officially-licensed tiaras, pink soccer balls,"bootylicious" fashion dolls, steamy music videos—has spread the message fasterand farther, reaching girls at ever-younger ages. But, realistically, how many times can a parent say no when her daughter begs for apink tulle princess dress, a makeover birthday party, or the latest Hannah MontanaCD? And how dangerous is pink and pretty anyway—especially given girls'successes in the classroom and on the playing field? Being a princess is just make-believe, after all. It's adorable watching them pretend to be Snow White or Ariel,innocent and pure, safe from the dangers of the grown-up world. And eventuallythey grow out of it.
Or do they? Does playing Cinderella shield girls from early...

The New York Times bestselling author and acclaimed science writer brings to light thetrue story of a pivotal moment in modern history when a group of strange, tormentedgeniuses, including Isaac Newton, invented science and remade our understanding ofthe world
The Clockwork Universe is the story of a band of strange, tormented geniuseswho lived in a world of dirt and disease but pictured a universe that ran like aperfect machine. It’s a meld of history and science, a group portrait of some ofthe greatest minds who ever lived wrestling with some of nature’s mostsweeping mysteries. The answers they uncovered still hold the key to how weunderstand the world.
At the end of the 17th century—an age of religious wars, plague, and the GreatFire of London—when most people saw the world falling apart, a small group ofmen saw a world of perfect order. Chaotic as it looked, these earliest scientistsdeclared, the universe was in fact an intricate and perfectly regulatedclockwork. This was the tail-end of Shakespeare’s century, when the naturaland the supernatural still twined around one another. Disease was apunishment ordained by God, astronomy had not yet broken free fromastrology, and the sky was filled with omens. It was a time when little wasknown and everything was new.

Are You Serious?How to Be Serious in an Unserious Age
Lee Siegel
A slashing critique of modern lightness and frivolity and a guide to being serious in anunserious age in the vein of The Culture of Narcisissism, Shop Class as Soulcraft, andHow Proust Can Change Your Life
We used to live in a world run by serious people: politicians and religiousleaders, writers and artists, journalists and academics, lawyers andbusinessmen who approached their work with maturity and mindfulness. Today,most of these thoughtful figures have all but disappeared, leaving our countryand our culture in the hands of amateurs, buffoons, and professional clowns. Yet according to critic Lee Siegel, the urge to be serious remains strong.Celebrities like Sean Penn have embraced social and political causes, whilecomedians such as John Stewart use humor for caustic truth-telling. Men andwomen in every realm are striving to break through the pursuit of instantgratification to find ways of living purposefully. In Are You Serious? Siegelilluminates the trials, tribulations, and triumphs of these Americans in theirquest to be serious. Are You Serious? is a thoughtful and enlightening overview of seriousness in allits incarnations, from how it is utilized by writers and intellectuals to the waythe word itself is used in everyday situations, from romance to business.

I Is an OtherThe Secret Life of Metaphor and How It Shapes the Way We Seethe World
James Geary
New York Times Bestselling Author
For lovers of language and fans of Blink and Freakonomics, New York Times bestsellingauthor James Geary offers a fascinating look at metaphors and their influence in everyaspect of our lives, from art to medicine, psychology to the stock market
But soft! What light through yonder window breaks?It is the East, and Juliet is the sun!
Metaphor is most familiar as the literary device through which we describe onething in terms of another, as in one of Shakespeare's most famous lines in which heequates Juliet with the sun. But metaphor is much more than a mere literary deviceemployed by love-struck poets when they refer to their girlfriends as interstellarmasses of incandescent gas. It is also intensely yet inconspicuously present ineverything from ordinary conversation and commercial messaging to news reportsand political speeches. Metaphor is at work in all fields of human endeavor, fromeconomics and advertising to politics and business to science and psychology. Weutter about one metaphor for every 10 to 25 words, or about six metaphors aminute. There is no aspect of our experience not molded in some way by metaphor'salmost imperceptible touch. And once you twig to metaphor's modus operandi, you'llfind its fingerprints on absolutely everything.

BrainsteeringA Better Approach to Breakthrough Ideas
Kevin CoyneShawn Coyne
A breakthrough approach to developing better and more ideas of any kind
Nearly everyone working today has endured a “brainstorming” session.Hamstrung by undisciplined thinking, these meetings—commonly marked bydirectionless stream-of-consciousness chatter, unclear directives, andcreativity–busting naysayers—are often highly unproductive, resulting in fewbreakthroughs, cynical and frustrated employees, and an anemic bottom line.
Now, former McKinsey consultants Kevin P. Coyne and Shawn T. Coyne offer abetter way, an unconventional yet powerful and proven new approach togenerating more—and more effective—ideas that they call “Brainsteering.”Grounded in more than a decade of in-depth research, Brainsteering takes thecreative energy behind traditional brainstorming and “steers” it in a moreproductive direction by better understanding and reflecting the way humanbeings actually think and work in creative problem-solving situations. The key isin asking questions effectively. By asking the right question, the rightanswers—and a host of good notions—will follow. From new business conceptsand manufacturing processes to administrative cost savings, this breakthroughmethod has consistently produced successful results for multinationalcorporations, entrepreneurs, non-profit institutions, and average people.
Written by and peppered with thought-provoking and entertaining real worldexamples drawn from the workplace and popular culture, Brainsteering is acomprehensive how-to...

Ugly BeautyHelena Rubinstein, L'Oréal, and the Blemished History of LookingGood
Ruth Brandon
A dual biography of the legendary founders of the cosmetics industry—HelenaRubinstein and L’Oréal’s Eugène Schueller—that is also a gripping and disturbing storyof gender, power, and politics that stretches back to the evils of World War II andbeyond
Helena Rubinstein and Eugène Schueller started out in the beauty businesswithin a few years of each other, and soon came to dominate it. But they couldnot have been more different. Rubinstein, a Polish Jew, claimed the world ofpaid work for women, and working women’s enthusiasm for her products madeher the first female millionaire. Schueller, a Frenchman, and a conservative inthe Henry Ford mould, thought woman belonged in the home, and used thebeauty business as a source of cash to buy economic and political influence inthe embryonic French fascist state during the war.
Schueller won, in the sense that his firm eventually swallowed Rubinstein’s. Butvictory cost him his reputation when in the wake of the takeover he wasexposed as a Nazi collaborator. And his wartime activities had been abettedand condoned by a cadre of young men who, by the time the scandal broke,had scaled the peaks of wealth and power in postwar France. If they hadcollaborated, one had to wonder who had not? Arguing that the battle between Schueller and Rubinstein continues on ametaphorical level...

“Mr. Bogle continues to be our most noted black-cinema historian.”—Spike Lee
Almost no other star of the 20th century re-imagined herself with such audacityand durable talent as Ethel Waters. In this enlightening and engagingbiography, Donald Bogle resurrects this astonishing woman from the annals ofhistory, shedding new light on the tumultuous twists and turns of her seven-decade career that began in the steamy nightclubs of 1920s Harlem.

He illuminates Waters’ turbulent private life: hercomplicated relationships with her mother and various lovers; her heated andsometimes well-known feuds with such entertainers as Josephine Baker, BillieHoliday, and Lena Horne; and her tangled relationships with the likes of suchlegends as Irving Berlin, Duke Ellington, Harold Clurman, Elia Kazan, CountBasie, Darryl F.

The economy collapsed and youngmen left the city in search of work and security. Desperate to help her family andsupport her five brothers and sisters at home, Kamela began sewing clothes in herliving room. Little did she know then that the tailoring venture she started to helpher siblings would be the beginning of a dressmaking business that would createjobs and hope for 100 neighborhood women and mean the difference betweensurvival and starvation for dozens of families like her own. The Dressmaker of Khair Khana tells the story of this unlikely breadwinner whobecame an entrepreneur under the Taliban. Former ABC News producer GayleTzemach Lemmon tells for the first time the story of the young women like Kamelawho found opportunity...

To Buddhists and Hindus alike it is the mystic heart of the world, “the source of theuniverse, created from cosmic waters and the mind of Brahma.” It is the solitarypeak of Kailas in Tibet, the holiest mountain on earth, sacred to one-fifth ofhumankind. While its sister peaks draw climbers from around the globe, itssacrosanct slopes remain untouched. An ancient site of pilgrimage, even today,under Chinese domination, the people of four religions circle this mountain indevotion to different gods.
Colin Thubron reached it by foot along the Karnali River, the highest source of theGanges. His journey is an entry into the culture of today's Tibet, and a pilgrimage inthe wake of the death of his mother and the loss of his family. He undertakes it inorder to mark the event, to leave a sign of their passage. He also explores his ownneed for solitude, which has shaped his career as a writer—one who travels toplaces beyond his own history and culture, and writes about them and about thejourney.

How to Be BlackBaratunde Thurston
From an editor at The Onion and cofounder of the Jack & Jill Politics website comes asatirical race manual for black people and those who love them
Black is back! Whether measured by the election and national confusion arisingfrom the half-black presidency of Barack Obama or the celebrity of superstarslike Michael Jordan and Oprah Winfrey or the narrowly-defined images of hiphop, crime, and poverty, America is talking about race again—but in the sametired, old way. How To Be Black takes the national conversation to a whole newlevel, combining irreverent step-by-step instructions, personal anecdotes, andresource guides for every reader’s blackness needs.
An expert at being black, Baratunde Thurston has had more than 30 years ofliving and redefining blackness, including the influences of a pro-black, Pan-Afrikan, hippie, single mother, surviving the crack years of 1980s inner-city D.C.and attending the best educational institutions this nation has to offer. Nowhe’s sharing his know-how with readers of all colors, from the African-Americanwho feels trapped by the ham-fisted, marketing-driven definition of what blackis supposed to be to a non-black who wants to be a little cooler without beingcalled a racist.
With advice and insight on everything from "How To Be The Black Friend" to"How To Speak For...

Happily wed for 45 years, they have learned not only to respect andreconcile the religious traditions they once thought might divide them—she isCatholic, he is Jewish—but to embrace them. Steve's family had never held aPassover Seder until he married Cokie; it was their mutual interest in anddiscovery of each other's religious backgrounds that led the couple to begincelebrating the holiday. Now, they host an annual Passover Seder which hasbecome a Washington tradition attended by more than 40 guests each year.
"Over the years, lots of other Jewish-Christian couples have talked to us andsome have asked our advice," writes Steve. "We're careful to stress we haveno formulas that work for everybody.

Seabiscuit meets Manic in this memoir when the author, who is bipolar, discovers thehealing, calming effect of horses
It's alcohol. Lithium. The Buddhist chant, Nam-myoho-renge-kyo . . .To quiet the voices in her mind, Sylvia Harris tried all the above to little effect. Atits worse, her manic behavior led her to dress up as a cowgirl and show off herimaginary roping skills in the middle of a quaint Northern California village orspend the night in a torpor of fear awaiting, at last, the alien invasion shealways knew was on the horizon. At its worse, it led her to look for love in allthe wrong places and consequently create a family she'd have a hard timecaring for. But while she found temporary relief and brief moments of calm, butdarkness always followed. At the nadir of her 20-year battle with bipolardepression, which included being homeless, she found salvation in the mostunlikely of places, Cardinal Farm, an equine ranch outside Orlando, Florida.

She-WolvesThe Women Who Ruled England Before Elizabeth
Helen Castor
In the tradition of the acclaimed works of Antonia Fraser, David Starkey, and historian AlisonWeir, a compelling, eye-opening exploration of women and power in England, witnessedthrough the lives of six females who exercised power against the odds—and one who nevergot the chance
When Edward VI—Henry VIII’s longed-for son—died in 1553 the extraordinary factwas that there was no one left to claim the title of king of England. For the first time,all the contenders for the crown were female.
Yet female rule in England had a past. Four hundred years earlier, Matilda, daughterof Henry I and granddaughter of William the Conqueror, came tantalizingly close tosecuring the throne for herself. Between the 12th and 15th centuries, three moreexceptional women—Eleanor of Aquitaine, Isabella of France, and Margaret ofAnjou—discovered, as queen, consort, and dowager, how much was possible ifpresumptions of male rule were not confronted explicitly—and just how quickly theymight be vilified as “she-wolves” for their ambitions.
The stories of these women—brought to life here in all their vivid humanity—revealthe paradox which the female heirs to the Tudor throne had no choice but tonegotiate. Man was the head of woman; and the king was the head of all. How,then, could royal power lie in female hands?
The subject of women and power—a compelling combination...

Between a Rock and a Hot PlaceWhy Fifty Is Not the New Thirty
Tracey Jackson
A funny, fearless, compulsively readable no-holds-barred look at aging—hormonereplacement therapy, online dating, eye-lifts, and all—that reveals what it reallymeans to turn 50 today
As she approached her 50th birthday, Tracey Jackson found herself bombardedby the latest catch phrase of the baby boom age: “Fifty is the new thirty”—anaphorism blooming out of a collective sense of denial masking the true fears ofan generation unwilling to relinquish its youth.
Jackson skewers that myth in this hilarious, bare-knuckled, and ultimatelypractical appraisal of what it really means to be 50 today. Willing not only toface the elephant in the room, but to put him under a (large) microscope, sheconfronts the truth about death, work, and sex in what the French call the“third age,” using poignant, laugh-out loud stories from her life. She examinesthe changing roles of motherhood and wifehood; the necessity of planning a“career after your career”; the unvarnished reality of our aging bodies; and thegenerational shift in our perception of age—from our mother’s andgrandmother’s generations to our own (”Tight abs was not a phrase mygrandmother had ever heard. And even if she had, her response would likelyhave been, Who needs that when you have a girdle?”).

This Life Is in Your HandsOne Dream, Sixty Acres, and a Family Undone
Melissa Coleman
A luminous, evocative memoir that explores the hope and struggle behind one family'ssearch for a self-sufficient life, from a writer of power and beauty reminiscent of TobiasWolff, Jeannette Walls, and Dave Eggers
“Lyrical and down-to-earth, wry and heartbreaking, This Life...
Set on the rugged coast of Maine during the 1970s, This Life Is in Your Handsintroduces a superb young writer haunted by the need to uncover the truth of achildhood tragedy and capture the beauty of a unique way of life.
Melissa Coleman tells of her parents, Eliot and Sue—a handsome, idealistic youngcouple from well-to-do families who forgo the trappings of society to carve ahomestead from the woods. While they achieve success and recognition, the pursuitof purity and simplicity comes at a price. Winters are long, summers frenetic, and theyoung farm apprentices threaten the Coleman's marriage. Then, one summer daywhen Melissa is seven, her three-year-old sister drowns in a pond where they oftenplayed. What really happened, and who, if anyone, is to blame?
In the wake of the accident, ideals give way to human frailty, divorce, and amother's breakdown—and ultimately young Melissa is abandoned to the care ofapprentices. This Life Is in Your Hands is her vivid telling of what happened; a truestory, both tragic and redemptive, of the quest to make a good life, the role of fate,and...

American EdenFrom Monticello to Central Park: What Our Gardens Tell Us AboutWho We Are
Wade Graham
The story of our nation—and ourselves—as told through its most significant gardens andtheir creators
From Frederick Law Olmsted to Richard Neutra, Michelle Obama to our neighbors,Americans throughout history have revealed something of themselves—theirpersonalities, desires, and beliefs—in the gardens they create. Rooted in the timeand place of their making, as much as in the minds and identities of their makers,gardens mirror the struggles and energies of a changing society. Meldingbiography, history, and cultural commentary in a one-of-a-kind narrative, AmericanEden offers a dynamic, sweeping look at this country's landscapes and thevisionaries behind them.
Monticello's gardens helped Jefferson reconcile his conflicted feelings aboutslavery—and take his mind off his increasing debt. Edith Wharton's gardens madeher feel more European—and superior to her wealthy but insufficientlysophisticated countrymen. Martha Stewart's gardening how-to instructions helpedbring Americans back into their gardens, while at the same time stoking andexploiting our age-old anxieties about social class. American Eden moves deftlythrough time and place across America's diverse landscape—from RevolutionaryVirginia to the 19th century Hudson Valley to the Gilded Age; from early CentralPark to the Arts and Crafts movement, from the Depression era to 1960s suburbanCalifornia—illuminating the larger history at hand through...

The Big ScrumHow Teddy Roosevelt Saved Football
John J. Miller
The intriguing, never-before fully told story of how Theodore Roosevelt helped to save thegame that would become America’s most popular sport
In its infancy in the late 19th century, the game of football was still a work inprogress that only remotely resembled the sport millions follow today. There was nocommon agreement about many of the game’s basic rules, and it was incrediblyviolent and extremely dangerous. An Americanized version of rugby, this newgame’s popularity grew even as the number of casualties rose. Numerous youngmen were badly injured, and dozens—the cream of the crop of America’s prepschools and colleges—died playing it in highly publicized incidents.
Objecting to the sport’s brutality, a movement of proto-Progressives, led by HarvardUniversity president Charles W. Eliot and the editors of The Nation, tried to abolishit. President Roosevelt, a vocal advocate of “the strenuous life” and proponent ofrisk, acknowledged football’s dangers but admired it’s potential for buildingcharacter. A longtime fan of the game who purposely recruited men with college-football experience for his Rough Riders, Roosevelt fought to preserve the game’smanly essence, even as he understood the need for reform.
In 1905, he summoned the coaches of Harvard, Yale, and Princeton to the WhiteHouse and...

Nom de PlumeA (Secret) History of Pseudonyms
Carmela Ciuraru
A compelling biographical exploration of the writers behind some of history's most famouspen names
The most compelling poets and writers are attuned to the nuances of self-identityand are acutely aware of the often contradictory nature of human behavior. Thissensitivity allows them to be better writers—to bring to life fascinating characters,poetic speakers, and richly layered narratives. It also affords them a particularunderstanding of their own multifaceted personalities. Unable to reconcile theseopposing forces, yet also unable to ignore them, writers struggles sometimes withtheir own personas. Finding it difficult to create under their given name, some preferthe anonymity of a pseudonym.
In Nom de Plume, Carmela Ciuraru examines 20 authors and their aliases—someused as a form of protection, others for modesty, and a few for the freedom toexplore other literary (or even psychological) identities.
Book lovers will discover fresh portraits of the literary lives of such writers as DanielDefoe, Jane Austen, Fernando Pessoa, Sylvia Plath, and the Bronte sisters. Filledwith literary anecdotes, rich detail, and little-known tidbits, this illuminating andenchanting book speaks to the desire in every reader—and every writer—to escapethe self and see the world through someone else's eyes.

Inaddition to sharing the personal narrative of their experiences, visitors to thewebsite are asked to fill out a survey consisting of over 100 questions designed toassure a scientifically reliable and in-depth study.
The website has become the largest collection of publicly available NDE accounts inthe world. The people whose stories are part of this study span all age groups,races, and religious affiliations and come from all over the world, yet the similaritiesin their stories are as awe-inspiring as they are revealing.

Originally published in 1987 in the UK as Traditional Islam in the Modern World, Nasrhas completely revised and updated this book for the U.S. with a new Introduction.A defense of "traditional" Islam, as opposed to Islamic fundamentalism, by one ofthe best-informed, most articulate Muslims of our time.

And Timothy Leary would play the rebellious trickster, thepremier proponent of the therapeutic and spiritual benefits of LSD, advising...

Unprotected TextsThe Bible's Surprising Contradictions About Sex and Desire
by Jennifer Wright Knust
A cutting-edge scholar reveals the Bible's contradictory messages about sex and liberates usfrom the pervasive moralizing-the dos and don'ts-so often dictated by those who reduce it tomere slogans
When it comes to sex and the Bible, sound bites will not do. Written over the courseof more than 2,000 years, the books of the Bible offer many different and conflictingversions of marriage, love, and gender roles. Indeed, despite popular claims to thecontrary, the Bible cannot—and should not—serve as a rulebook for sexual morality.
A top biblical scholar, Knust sheds much-needed light on what the Bible actuallysays about sex, sexuality, and desire, and how we should interpret those thornyverses today. With clarity and precision, Knust addresses the big questions peoplecontinue to ask: Is premarital sex a sin? When, and in what contexts, is sexualdesire appropriate? With whom can I legitimately have sex? Are same-sex relationspermissible? Is extramarital sex always wrong? And what is “sex” anyway?
It is time to read these texts thoughtfully, critically, and in their context. It is time torevel in the Bible’s complexity, and ask all the questions it raises. And it is time foran honest, clear-eyed conversation about how we can and cannot apply thosescriptures today. Impressively thorough and unabashedly provocative,...

If the Church Were ChristianRediscovering the Values of Jesus
Philip Gulley
The author of If Grace Is True and If God Is Love returns with another challenging bookexamining what today’s church would look like if Christians truly followed the core values ofJesus
Philip Gulley took the Christian world by storm when he announced his belief inuniversal salvation in If Grace Is True. He then explained what that belief shouldmean for how a Christian lives in If God Is Love. Now, for the first time, he tacklestoday’s church and reveals just how far it is from the values of Jesus.
Unfortunately, when looking back at the Gospels, Jesus had very little to say aboutthe church. It is very clear he didn’t intend to found a new religion. But the church ishere to stay. The question becomes, how can we get back to the radical vision ofJesus? What would the church look like if it took seriously the priorities of Jesus?Examining the values of Jesus found in the Beatitudes and the Sermon on theMount, he argues:
If the church were Christian:Jesus would be a model of living, not an object of worshipAffirming our potential would be more important than condemning our brokennessReconciliation would be valued over judgment...

by Ali Eteraz
A searing memoir revealing the inside of militant Islamic fundamentalism in Pakistanand the culture shock of moving to the U.S. - what Kite Runner did for fiction, Childrenof the Dust does for nonfiction.
Works such as Infidel, Persepolis, and Reading Lolita in Tehran have opened anew area of investigation that focuses on the troubled interplay between thereligion of Islam and modern life. Yet absent from these discussions areentries from Muslim men with authentic and vivid stories about coming of agein militant Islamic societies.
Centered around the rural areas of Pakistan, Children of Dust is a memoir thatchronicles a boy’s coming of age in a fundamentalist milieu, and offers adetailed account of the ways in which people internalize and submit to Islamicextremism and social alienation.

Alexander Shaiaand Michelle Gaugy
A renowned speaker and teacher opens up the universal messages in each of the Bible’sfour gospels, revealing how the recurring cycles of change, loss, enlightenment, andpersonal growth are illuminated for all spiritual seekers
In the tradition of Thomas Moore’s The Care of the Soul and Don Miguel Ruiz’s TheFour Agreements, Alexander Shaia combines ancient Christian wisdom, mythologicaltraditions, and Jungian insights to reveal what was right before our eyes for twothousand years: that each of the four gospels is centered on a different wisdomtradition and focuses on a core spiritual question. In Matthew, we confront theproblem How do we handle change? For Mark, it is How do we cope with loss? Johnstirs the soul with How do I find illumination? Luke takes on the journey, asking Howdo I apply this wisdom to my everyday life? The quadratos journey, this recurringfourfold cycle, is never finished, but a constant companion as we follow the path weare on.
Dr. Shaia unravels the divine inspiration of this mysterious sequence and links it touniversal, spiritual, anthropological, and modern psychological understandings. Byusing this lens, the gospels become practical guides for creating faith-filled lives thatare relevant and useful in a time that is much more complex than village life milleniaago.

The Vital ConnectionReinventing Spirituality as a Way of Life
by Brian D. McLaren
Controversial church leader Brian McLaren does here for spirituality what he did forChristian beliefs in A New Kind of Christianity: shunning old practices that hinder our spiritualgrowth and offering spiritual practices to help transform our lives.
Many people are stuck with an understanding of prayer that doesn’t go beyondSunday school memorizations and desperate petitions in time of need. Here,McLaren offers new hope to those who are disillusioned by religious dogma anddisheartened by unanswered prayers.
In The Vital Connection McLaren confronts how the church’s traditional practices nolonger work; in fact, they often serve to prevent the very transformation God iscalling us to undergo. McLaren offers twelve moves, or practices, that both connectus with God and free us to do the holistic work the gospel calls us to--to pray aswell as save the planet; to worship as well as lift up the poor and needy. For many,this will feel like a formula for the faith they always hoped for.
With his characteristic fresh voice and practical wisdom, McLaren has written aspiritual manual that goes beyond encouraging piety by offering spiritualtransformation.

The PastorA Memoir
by Eugene H. Peterson
Translator of the multi-million selling The Message, Eugene Peterson’s inspiringmemoir of stumbling into his vocation and the surprisingly difficult journey todiscovering what pastors are actually supposed to do.
Eugene Peterson never wanted to be a pastor. That’s why in 1962, whenPeterson was asked by the Presbyterian Church USA, to begin a new churchoutside Baltimore and he accepted–no one was more surprised than he.
And so was born Christ Our King Presbyterian Church. Peterson quicklylearned that he was not exactly sure what a pastor should do. He needed tofigure out a way to measure what the heart of the job really was andwhether he was living up to his calling. And that he was he set out to do.
After 29 years in that one pulpit, two decades as a professor and writingthirty books on the church, spirituality, and the Bible, Peterson decided tooffer his life as an example and guide to others for what he discovered itmeans to be a pastor. In The Pastor, Peterson exudes warmth, familiarity, andhumor through his stories that take on church marketing, mega pastors, andthe church’s too cozy relationship to American glitz and consumerism. This willbecome the definitive statement on the subject for years to come....

AllahA Christian Response
by Miroslav Volf
From one of the world's foremost Christian theologians-co-teacher, with Tony Blair, of anacclaimed Yale course on faith and globalization-a timely and provocative argument for anew pluralism between Muslims and Christians
Do Muslims and Christians worship the same God? Yale University religion scholarMiroslav Volf—widely known for the famous Yale course he co-teaches with TonyBlair—argues that this question lies at the root of the 21st century’s most sensitive,and critical, geopolitical concerns.
3.6 billion people, the majority of the world’s population, profess one of these twofaiths. And while it has long been an uneasy coexistence, the post-9/11 world hasseen tensions rise as leaders and the faithful on both sides of the divide seekeither to see only differences or to unduly emphasize these traditions’ similarities.Volf examines the hidden agendas and meanings behind various sources—fromtoday’s news stories to text straight out of the Bible and the Qur’an—in search ofthe fullest picture of where these faiths diverge and where they meet.
Religious wars become real wars, Volf argues, and enormous contemporary interestin the theological and historical intersections of Islam and Christianity reflects justhow much is at stake. Persuasively argued and expertly researched, Allah offers aconstructive vision for a new pluralism and hope for building a common future.

The traditional wisdom that Jesuits use to help other people in their daily lives-howto make decisions, how to move towards freedom, how to live a spiritual life in themodern world-are easily applied, but not often explained well to the general public.The Jesuit Guide to Everything translates the 500-year-old insights of Saint Ignatius(often called "Ignatian spirituality") for a modern audience, using stories andexamples from Martin's 20 years as a Jesuit and from the lives of the great Jesuitsaints and spiritual masters.
With both humor and substance, Martin delivers a terrific read as he helps readerstackle the big questions of life by sharing the spiritual practices that Jesuits havebeen applying for 500 years. It's this kind of no nonsense spirituality that explainswhy Ignatian retreats are the most...

Jesus WarsHow Four Patriarchs, Three Queens, and Two Emperors DecidedWhat Christians Would Believe for the Next 1,500 years
Philip Jenkins
A top historian reveals in bloody detail the fifth century battles over Christianity’s biggestparadox—Jesus, both fully human and fully God
Jesus Wars reveals how official, orthodox teaching about Jesus was the product ofpolitical maneuvers by a handful of key characters in the fifth century. Jenkinsargues that were it not for these controversies, the papacy as we know it wouldnever have come into existence and that today’s church could be teachingsomething very different about Jesus. It is only an accident of history that onegroup of Roman emperors and militia-wielding bishops defeated another faction.
Christianity claims that Jesus was, somehow, both human and divine. But the Bibleis anything but clear about Jesus’s true identity. In fact, a wide range of opinionsand beliefs about Jesus circulated in the church for four hundred years until alliedfactions of Roman royalty and church leaders burned cities and killed thousands ofpeople in an unprecedented effort to stamp out heresy.
Jenkins recounts the fascinating, violent story of the church’s fifth-century battlesover “right belief” that had a far greater impact on the future of Christianity andthe world than the much-touted Council of Nicea convened by Constantine acentury before.

ForgedWriting in the Name of God--Why the Bible's Authors Are Not WhoWe Think They Are
by Bart D. Ehrman
New York Times Bestselling AuthorThe bestselling author of Jesus, Interrupted reveals which books in the Bible wereforged—and why that’s far more significant than many scholars are willing to admit
For centuries, scholars have known that not all of the books in the New Testamentare authentic, a loaded truth that remains largely unknown to the general public.But if the Gospels weren't written by Jesus's inner circle-penned instead by laterwriters with agendas, and rivalries, all their own-what happens to the authority ofthe Bible? In his signature incisive prose, leading religion scholar Bart D. Ehrmancarefully navigates the evidence and implications of the Bible's creation.
With new, original research, Ehrman takes the reader on a journey to the ancientworld and the forgery battles that raged throughout the Roman Empire. Hedebunks the popular myth that "writing in the name of another" was a common,accepted practice in antiquity, arguing instead that forgery was as scandalous thenas it is now. Ehrman masterfully brings to life an era when documents were copiedby hand-circulated freely with little or no authorial control-and highlights thepolitical, historical, and religious uncertainty that bred.
Sure to inspire vigorous debate by Ehrman's critics and fans alike, this is a must-read for anyone who thinks they know the Bible.

Speaking ChristianWhy Christian Words Have Lost Their Meaning and Power-And HowThey Can Be Restored
by Marcus J. Borg
Bible scholar Marcus Borg argues that the language Christians use has become distorted,and calls for a revolutionary change that will allow the church's words to once again speakwith power and hope.
Christianity has a problem-while most Westerners immediately recognize the wordsand phrases: "Salvation," "Kingdom of God," or "Trinity," few understand what theyreally mean. Like French or Spanish, Christianity has a unique language that mustbe understood, and it is this widespread misunderstanding that is leading to areligion quickly being stripped of its true meaning.
Borg says we need to redeem Christian language from the distorted meanings wehave attributed to it over the years by reading through a historical-metaphoricallens that will give the words a richer meaning. Only then will we discover theBiblical text can continue to be both persuasive and powerful, providing life-changing words for the 21st century.

Matthew Sleeth
From the leading Christian voice for the green movement comes a practical and accessibleguide to the Bible's teachings on caring for the earth
As an emergency room doctor, Matthew Sleeth saw a disturbing increase in asthma,autoimmune diseases, cancers, and other environmentally related disease.

“As with the clinical finality of death, all things must end; just as surely, all thatexists must have a beginning. When then did I become famous? Was there amoment that could be recognised and pin pointed? Yes for me notoriety was neitherincremental nor intangible….”
So begins Russell Brand’s electrifying memoir of his rapid ascent into the upperrealms of fame. Rarely has a sequel delivered on the promise of the original withsuch literary and comic gusto. In My Booky Wook 2: This Time It’s Personal, Brandtakes off where his international bestseller My Book Wook left off.

Tabatha Coffey is more than a hairstylist with incredible flair, a business womanwith enviable moxie, and the star of her own hit reality show—she’s an agent oftransformation. Born in Australia to rather unconventional parents who ran aburlesque club, Tabatha spent much of her childhood observing the beauty ritualsof the transvestite performers her parents employed and later attending to theirhair and make-up. It was in the club that she first learned how to make one’soutside more fully reflect what’s on the inside—how to help people find their‘signature’ look. It was there too that her own transformation from an overweightchild to a fit, confidant, and determined adult began. But perhaps the mostsurprising element of her journey was how she developed her work ethic and hermuch admired business acumen.

Neon AngelA Memoir of a Runaway
Cherie Curriewith Tony O'Neill
Los Angeles Times Bestseller
Cherie Currie, the original lead singer of ‘70s teenage all-girl rock band The Runaways,powerfully recounts her years in the band, her friendship with legendary guitarist Joan Jett,and her struggle with drugs in this candid autobiography—also the inspiration for the filmThe Runaways...
At the tender age of 15, Cherie Currie became the lead singer for The Runaways, anall-girl punk rock group formed in 1975. Cherie and her bandmates-Joan Jett, LitaFord, Jackie Fox, and Sandy West-were quickly catapulted from playing small LAclubs to selling out major stadiums during an amazing time in punk rock. With hersignature Bowie-hair cut and fishnet stockings, Cherie lit up the stage, singing hitssuch as "Cherry Bomb," "Queens of Noise," and "Born to Be Bad." She toured withbands such as the Ramones, Van Halen, Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, CheapTrick, and Blondie, and hung out with the Sex Pistols.

The BedwetterStories of Courage, Redemption, and Pee
Sarah Silverman
New York Times Bestseller
From the outrageously filthy and oddly innocent comedienne who once sang to her boyfriendon national television that she was “F***ing Matt Damon,” comes a memoir that is at onceshockingly personal, surprisingly poignant, and still laugh-out-loud funny
Sarah Silverman's father taught her to curse-at the age of three. She was a chronicbedwetter-until she was old enough to drive. She lost her virginity at age 19-butdidn't really know it. These are just a few of the outrageous true tales thatSilverman shares in her alternately hilarious and moving collection ofautobiographical essays. With her signature taboo-breaking humor, Silvermanwrites on everything from her epic struggle with hairy arms (there wasn't enoughwax in the world) to the death of her infant brother (It was Nana's fault) andalways leaves the reader with a smile. Mixed in among the essays are scores ofembarrassing photos, mortifying childhood diary entries, and truly humiliating e-mails to and from her comedian friends. This is the book your mother warned youabout but you have to read anyway.

Cheech Marin
In The Chimichanga Chronicles, actor and humorist Cheech Marin dispels and confrontsmyths and stereotypes through hilarious insights and his own life experiences
Most people think of Cheech Marin as a perpetual stoner, lost in a haze ofmarijuana smoke. Yet this wonderfully original comedian is much, much more: anintelligent, quick-witted, and keen student of human behavior, with a gift formaking us see ourselves as few observers can.
Like Chelsea Handler and David Sedaris, Cheech offers a fresh take on his life andthe events that have made him who he is. Whether as the son of the highest-ranking Hispanic police officer in Los Angeles county, or as a fledgling comedianand pioneer in early stoner counter-culture, Cheech has spent most of his life onthe fringe—a position that has offered him a clear-eyed view of who we are—andaren’t. In The Chimichanga Chronicles, his first book writen for an adult audience,Cheech offers a distinct counter-cultural point of view of America, a funny lesson onhow absurd life is, and a great sense of just how awesome it is to be Cheech.

By night, Brian Johnson sings in the biggest rock ‘n’ roll band on the planet. But byday, AC/DC’s charismatic, flat-capped frontman gets to indulge his passion for allthings automotive. Cars and rock ‘n’roll, they were made for each other.

Starting, as a young boy growing up in Tyneside, with an old steering wheel andhis imagination, a lifelong passion took root early. And through cramped teenagefumbles in an old mini and clapped-out, hygienically challenged tour vans, tochauffeur-driven, leather-trimmed limos and a sideline as a successful racingdriver, it’s been there ever since.
By turns, surprising, joyful, poignant, and usually laugh-out-loud funny, Rockersand Rollers is the story of man with an insatiable appetite for life and a glimpseinto the extraordinary world of AC/DC, set soon to overtake the Beatles as thebiggest selling-band in history. Packed with hair-raising anecdotes, Rockers andRollers is essential reading for car nuts and rock fans....

Dubbed the “Career Girls killings,” the crime sent ripples offear throughout the city and ignited a 10-year saga of racial violence and turmoil.
The Savage City explores this pivotal event and the traumatic decade it definedthrough the stories of three very different men:• George Whitmore Jr., a near-blind, destitute 19-year-old black youth who wouldbecome a scapegoat—and a living symbol of the inequities of the system• Bill Phillips, a brazenly crooked NYPD officer who would eventually create thelarest scandal in the depatment's history• Dhoruba bin Wahad, an early member of New York’s Black Panther Party, whosemilitant activism would make him a target of local and federal law enforcement...

Leah McGrath Goodman

Under the thumb of an all-powerful international oil cartel, the energy markethad long eluded the grasp of America's hungry capitalists. Neither the oil royaltyof Houston, nor the masterminds of Wall Street, had ever dared attempt towrest away control. But facing near-extinction, the hardscrabble traders of theailing New York Mercantile Exchange (Nymex) went after this Goliath and won,creating the first free oil market and transforming themselves into one of theplanet's largest club of multimillionaires. They just didn't count on the moreinsidious side effects.
For the first time, the self-described "inmates" of The Asylum—the secret societybehind the trillion-dollar oil money machine that's housed in a heavily guardedcompound—reveal what went wrong: the real-life machinations behind record-high oil and gas prices that bludgeoned cash-strapped consumers, the namesof the key figureheads pulling all the strings, and the harsh realities of how rawambition and the endless quest for wealth change the very nature of both manand market.

Drawing on brand newsources, Levin offers a dynamic, comprehensive portrait of this brilliant woman whogrew up an impoverished Jewish girl in Brooklyn and made trouble in the late 1920sand early 1930s as a tough, unreserved, outspoken artist, feminist, and communistsympathizer. Deeply insecure, irascible, and stubborn, Krasner was also magnetic,with the “the kind of animal energy and voluptuousness we later came to call sexappeal,” said a friend.
In 1945, Krasner married Jackson Pollock, a passionate relationship defined bytenderness and duplicity that would have a significant influence on both their work.Levin probes Krasner’s struggles with Pollock examining how this willful woman waswrecked by her husband's alcoholism, destructive behavior, and secret...

by John Kralik
An inspiring memoir about how the seemingly ordinary act of writing thank younotes led a middle-aged man out of hopelessness and into the fulfillment oflifelong dreams
At age 53, John Kralik was about to begin the new year at a personalnadir—confronted with a law firm in the red, a painful divorce, increasingly distantchildren, a small and poorly heated apartment, and a newly ex-girlfriend. During awalk in the hills on New Year’s Day, Kralik was struck by the belief that his lifemight be at least a bit tolerable if he could find a way be grateful for what hehad—and his inspiring thank-you-note story began.
One by one, day after day, on plain note cards and with unadorned sincerity, hethanked close loved ones for gifts or kindnesses, he thanked business associatesand former business associates, he thanked store clerks and a handyman, collegefriends and current foes—each with a brief handwritten note. The benefits thatquickly began to come his way—from financial gain to companionship to innerpeace—surprised him. And turned his life around. By the time John wrote his365th thank you note, he’d lost weight, his business was prospering, his childrenwere well and he’d grown closer to them, he’d reconnected with dear friends, hisgirlfriend had returned—and there were other positive changes in his life, evenmore profound and surprising.

It was just another day on the job for fifty-three-year-old Richard Phillips, captain ofthe Maersk Alabama, a United States-flagged cargo ship. That all changed whenarmed Somali pirates boarded the ship. The pirates didn’t expect the crew to fightback, nor did they expect Captain Phillips to offer himself as hostage in exchange forthe safety of his crew.

When the pirates boarded his ship, Captain Phillips put hisexperience into action, doing everything he could to safeguard his crew.

Have a Little FaithA True Story
by Mitch Albom
Now in paperback—the #1 New York Times bestseller Have a Little Faith, abeautifully written story of a remarkable eight-year journey between twoworlds, two men, and two faiths that will inspire readers everywhere.
Albom’s first nonfiction book since Tuesdays with Morrie begins with an unusualrequest: an eighty-two-year-old rabbi from Albom’s hometown asks him to deliverhis eulogy.
Feeling unworthy, Albom insists on understanding the man better, which throwshim back into a world of faith he’d left years ago. Meanwhile, closer to his currenthome, Albom becomes involved with a Detroit pastor—a reformed drug dealer andconvict—who preaches to the poor and homeless in a decaying church with a holein its roof.
Moving between their worlds, Albom observes how these very different menemploy faith similarly in fighting for survival. As America struggles with hard timesand people turn more to their beliefs, Albom and the two men of God exploreissues that perplex modern man: how to endure when difficult things happen;what heaven is; intermarriage; forgiveness; doubting God; and the importance offaith in trying times. Albom begins to recognize a striking unity between the twoworlds—and indeed, between beliefs everywhere.
Have a Little Faith is a book about a life’s purpose; about losing belief and finding itagain; about the divine spark inside us all. It is one man’s journey, but it iseveryone’s story.
