ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bate, Dana, PUBLISHER: Hyperion Books, "The kind of book you just devour. Hannah Sugarman is Bridget Jones with a killer cinnamon bun recipe." --Stacey Ballis, author of "Good Enough to Eat" and "Off the Menu" " A] delicious debut." --Sarah Pekkanen, author of "These Girls" Hannah Sugarman seems to have it all. She works for an influential think tank in Washington, D.C., lives in a swanky apartment with her high-achieving boyfriend, and is poised for an academic career just like her parents. The only problem is that Hannah doesn't want any of it. What she wants is much simpler; to cook. When her relationship collapses, Hannah seizes the chance to do what she's always loved and launches an underground supper club out of her new landlord's town house. Though her delicious dishes become the talk of the town, her secret venture is highly problematic, given that it is not, technically speaking, legal. She also conveniently forgets to tell her landlord she has been using his place while he is out of town. On top of that, Hannah faces various romantic prospects that leave her guessing and confused, parents who don't support cooking as a career, and her own fears of taking a risk and charting her own path. A charming romantic comedy, "The Girls' Guide to Love and Supper Clubs" is a story about finding yourself, fulfilling your dreams, and falling in love along the way. "Hannah is a girl I can relate to.... She reminds us that dreams are often chocolate frosted and hard fought, but the key ingredient is believing in yourself." --Joy Wilson, author of "Joy the Baker Cookbook"
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brett, Christina, PUBLISHER: Authorhouse, The Bradleys moved to the suburbs because with a new baby in the household it was time to leave the Big Bad City and settle in the suburbs just like any other red-blooded American tired of the hassle. What they didn't count on was the fact that suburbia isn't always the nice and quiet place they had envisioned. Instead they found murder and mayhem in the midst of coffee clubs, lawns to be mowed and the squeezing of cantaloupes on shopping day. Melisa Bradley, new mother extraordinaire, feels trapped in their gorgeous new abode and when one of their neighbors is murdered she feels that her calling as sleuth-du-jour is screaming to get out. The nice and quiet place is not as nice and quiet as they thought it would be. Everybody seems to have something to keep mum, and Melissa knows that she is finding too many flaws in regular people that she encounters every day while walking baby Gemma or sitting under her apple tree. She starts to ask questions and to put two and two together until she comes up with the answer. She and her friend Liza find ways to talk the handsome Lieutenant in charge of the case into following their clues until the killer is finally caught and brought to justice. "A Nice and Quiet Place" is a fast-paced story set in Long Island, filled with one-liners and two lovable friends who feel they were cheated when they were moved from the city to Jay Gatsby's playground. A clever satire of suburbia neatly wrapped around a mystery, it is very entertaining and will keep you chuckling until the last page.
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bacevich, Andrew J., PUBLISHER: Harvard University Press, In a challenging, provocative book, Andrew Bacevich reconsiders the assumptions and purposes governing the exercise of American global power. Examining the presidencies of George H. W. Bush and Bill Clinton--as well as George W. Bush's first year in office--he demolishes the view that the United States has failed to devise a replacement for containment as a basis for foreign policy. He finds instead that successive post-Cold War administrations have adhered to a well-defined "strategy of openness." Motivated by the imperative of economic expansionism, that strategy aims to foster an open and integrated international order, thereby perpetuating the undisputed primacy of the world's sole remaining superpower. Moreover, openness is not a new strategy, but has been an abiding preoccupation of policymakers as far back as Woodrow Wilson. Although based on expectations that eliminating barriers to the movement of trade, capital, and ideas nurtures not only affluence but also democracy, the aggressive pursuit of openness has met considerable resistance. To overcome that resistance, U.S. policymakers have with increasing frequency resorted to force, and military power has emerged as never before as the preferred instrument of American statecraft, resulting in the progressive militarization of U.S. foreign policy. Neither indictment nor celebration, "American Empire" sees the drive for openness for what it is--a breathtakingly ambitious project aimed at erecting a global imperium. Large questions remain about that project's feasibility and about the human, financial, and moral costs that it will entail. By penetrating the illusions obscuring the reality of U.S. policy, this book marks an essential first step toward finding the answers.
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Norton, Trevor, PUBLISHER: Century, Smoking Ears and Screaming Teeth is a hilarious celebration of the great eccentrics who have performed dangerous experiments on themselves for the benefit of humankind, written with all the wit, humour and eye for the beauties of nature -- and machinery and scientific equipment -- that have gained Trevor Norton a cult following and critical acclaim. Many have followed the advice of the great Victorian scientist Jack Haldane to "never experiment on an animal if a man will do" and "never ask anyone to do anything you wouldn't do yourself." He and his father inhaled poisonous gasses to test the efficacy of the prototype gas mask they had invented. When breathing gasses under pressure he suffered the smoking ears and screaming teeth of the title. The stories are astonishing, disturbing or absurd -- the Marquis de Sade meets Monty Python. John Hunter pioneered self-experimentation and deliberately infected himself with venereal diseases by the puss transference method and gave his name to chancre of the penis. The zoologist Frank Buckland made a concentrated effort to widen the nation's diet by personally testing everything that crossed his path, from boiled elephant's trunk to bluebottles. He published recipes for such delicacies as slug soup. Some medics deliberately contracted deadly blood diseases in the hope of finding cures. Then there was the surgeon who got the sack and won the Nobel prize for thrusting a catheter into his own beating heart. Trevor Norton writes that self-experimentation is still a component of much scientific research. In our health and safety obsessed society, we need people who are willing to risk themselves to make life safer for us.
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bach, James Marcus, PUBLISHER: Scribner Book Company, "A Buccaneer-Scholar is anyone whose love of learning is not muzzled or shackled by any institution or authority; whose mind is driven to wander and find its own place in the world." The volatility of the job market and the limitless opportunities afforded by the internet have forever changed people's attitudes about schooling. In this world of rapid technological development, people are becoming successful, making money and finding personal satisfaction through non-traditional means. Ideas have become more important than training; innovation is more important than credentials. The ability to educate oneself -- to learn how to learn -- is crucial. James Bach, the son of bestselling author Richard Bach ("Jonathan Livingston Seagull,") understands that. Like so many young people, James struggled in school, eventually dropping out at age sixteen. A few years later, he was leading a team at Apple Computer. Now an internationally recognized expert in the field of computer software testing, James has written "Secrets of a Buccaneer-Scholar": a groundbreaking book that shows how anyone can create their own education on their own terms. It is nurturing our individual curiosities and relishing the learning process that will lead anyone -- from children struggling in school to professionals looking to jumpstart their careers -- to success. In his unique pithy and anecdotal style, and combining his personal story with proven methodologies, James describes the relentless, whimsical, low-intensity learning process he calls "buccaneering." "Secrets of a Buccaneer-Scholar" demonstrates that it is the people who chart their own course, who never stop learning, who will come to dominate this new world.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Griffin, Elizabeth, PUBLISHER: Emerald Books, For the multitudes of parents facing the challenge of raising a child with special needs, Fragile X, Fragile Hope affirms that they can survive the devastation of the unexpected diagnosis, the lost dreams, the confusion of treatment options, the sleep deprivation, the painful misunderstandings of friends and family--and that more than survive, they can find a way through this chronic stress and grief back to hope and joy. Elizabeth Griffin's stunning, honest book shows how parents can move from profound grief to embracing parenting a special needs child. Elizabeth's son Zack is a Fragile X child with autistic tendencies. Like most families, the Griffin family's prayers were not answered with a cure for their child, but rather with the miracle of God's sustaining grace that carries them through each day. Elizabeth says, We experience so much joy in parenting Zack, despite our heartache over his limitations.... I have to admit that prior to Zack's entrance into my life, I viewed children with special needs as a tragic burden. I remember hearing a speaker on the radio say they wouldn't trade the experience of having a special needs child for anything. I thought, "Liar You're just saying that to be positive. You don't really mean it " Now that I've worked through the initial grief, anger, and fear that Zack's diagnosis brought, I have to agree with the man on the radio. There is a deep sense of love and joy that I've found in parenting a special needs child that I never expected, and that I am grateful to have in my life. Fragile X, Fragile Hope helps all of us grapple with our faith in the midst of adversity.

Bedford / Van Belkom, Edo, PUBLISHER: Edge, When retired top homicide inspector Zette McGee, late of Winter City, Ganymede, gets called out of her mysterious retirement to help Kell Fallow, a desperate former android accused unjustly of murdering his wife and children, she knows she has to help him, for Zette has a secret she is desperate to keep, and Fallow knows all about it. With the help of her best friend, the elderly but very suave former secret agent Gideon Smith, and his ridiculously impressive personal starship, the Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time, Zette sets out (a) to help the accused man, but also (b) to keep Gideon from finding out her own awful secret, even as everything they learn in the investigation keeps pointing to it. But when Kell Fallow is killed by a bomb he didn't know was buried in his guts, and when a homebrew android identical to Zette destroys her home on the luxurious Serendipity habitat, Gideon and Zette go on the run, only to run afoul of sabotage, spies, nasty infections, and bad guys galore and ordinary machines come to relentless, murderous life. The case will take Zette and Gideon on a terrifying journey into the darkest reaches of human space, in pursuit of an ancient truth -- and will bring her into deadly contact with that truth's keeper, the awesomely powerful firemind, Hydrogen Steel, an artificial consciousness evolved far beyond its original design, and which is utterly determined to keep that same truth from getting out, at any cost. Hydrogen Steel is a tense and thrilling mystery within a mystery, a tale of secrets and truth, and a journey to the limits of existence--and a bit beyond

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Huffstetler, Joel W., PUBLISHER: Authorhouse, This book grew out of a Bible Conference at Kanuga Conference Center in October, , led by Dr. George L. Carey, the 103rd Archbishop of Canterbury. Archbishop Carey's theme was the life and ministry of St. Paul, with a focus on the Letter to the Ephesians. I was privileged to serve as a workshop leader and preacher during the conference, and I chose as the theme of my workshop to study St. Paul and reconciliation, using Ephesians as our primary text. The main thrust of the workshop was to study selected passages from Ephesians in detail, and to look to St. Paul's writings for guidance regarding reconciliation in the Body of Christ. We live in a time when there is such a pressing need in the Church for reconciliation, a rekindling of a spirit of love and mutual respect rather than the judgment and suspicion which all too often characterize relations among Christians who find themselves in disagreement with one another regarding the divisive issues of our time. This book advocates a renewed realization that in Jesus Christ what unites us as Christians is far greater than what divides us. These essays on selected passages from Ephesians and the concluding essay, The Way Forward, are offered in the cause of reconciliation. They are suitable for study by individuals as well as parish and diocesan study groups seeking reconciliation in the Church. Study questions are presented at the end of each chapter to foster reflection and discussion. "I welcome this book as an offering to us all. It presents one means for discovering a receptive stance to God's will for us, even in the midst of the harsh rhetoric and self-justifying proclamations of our day. I am grateful to Joel Huffstetler for hiscontribution to the forming of an attitude of the heart committed to reconciliation." From the Afterword by The Rt. Rev. Charles G. vonRosenberg, Bishop of East Tennessee.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rikki, PUBLISHER: Authorhouse, It is said that a crisis will either make or break a family. Sometimes, even the strongest of relationships can fall apart when troubles arise, and we can be shocked by the manner in which people respond to problems. Issues which were previously ignored or buried are suddenly emphasized, demanding attention, at any cost. Left ignored, the price is very high, as the family in this book discovers. "A Christmas Spirit" is an intensely emotional story about a family's journey through a very difficult and turbulent period. Already having endured many hardships, this family is fractured without even realizing it until the youngest child becomes critically ill. With Christmas approaching, the little girl's health takes a dramatic turn for the worse. Quietly, her parents and brothers begin falling apart and it doesn't take long before the fractures become enormous cracks, threatening to shatter the family completely. Four-year-old Angelina watches as her family is forced to confront its demons, and she longs for her parents and brothers to find their way to healing. But as with many healing journeys, things must get a lot worse before even beginning to get better... "A Christmas Spirit" is certain to move its readers to tears as they connect and identify with each member of the Lane family. Meet Angelina and the others: Wife and mother, Kathy, so lost in her own emotions that she withdraws from life, entirely in denial; her husband, Robert, guilt-ridden and feeling inadequate; teen son, James, consumed by his own anger to the point of self-destruction; and Elijah, the wise old ten-year-old soul, trying to be the glue that holds his family together. Follow these troubled hearts, who are lost and struggling to find their way through the darkness, and who have lost all hope of ever finding the light.

It is also the story the author's students at Los Angeles City College, who after reading her novel Rena, A Late Journey, have repeatedly urged her to write Looking For Johnny, the story that brings her Corpus Christi novels full circle. About: Looking For Johnny "Two of my favorites just became three Eve Caram has fulfilled the promise offered by Dear Corpus Christi in her usual inimitable style." Carolyn Howard-Johnson, multi award-winning author and poet "Looking for long lost Johnny was the last thing Elizabeth wanted to do, and we, as readers, are compelled to search with her.

A relentless page turner, impossible to put down, riveting " Linda Rader Overman, award winning author, Letters Between Us About: Rena, A Late Journey "A lyrical telling...the rhythms in Rena, A Late Journey, are magical and gentle, the losses and revelations gut wrenching.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Barrett, Katharine / Willard, Carolyn, PUBLISHER: Great Explorations in Math & Science (Gems), In this series of outdoor, life-science investigations for grades 3-6, the schoolyard, is the environment to be investigated. Many ecological, environmental, and life science concepts are explored. Students learn biological sampling techniques; mapping and related mathematical skills are developed. In addition to temporarily collecting samples in "shake boxes," investigations focus on ants and spiders, and can be extended in many directions. Students learn that a bush may be home to a "community" of interacting plants and animals. Based on their observations and findings, students select a small area as their favorite location. Environmental writing about their favorite locations crowns the closing activity. This guide is designed to spark student curiosity about the patterns and interactions in nature, beginning with their immediate environment-the schoolyard. TABLE OF CONTENTS: Introduction Time Frame Activity 1 Exploring the Schoolyard Study Area Activity 2 Finding and Observing Spiders Tales from the Web Activity 3 Discovering Animal Communities Activity 4 Tracking Ants Activity 5 Special Study Sites Behind the Scenes Guide to small Common Schoolyard Animals Spider Web Identification key Resources Assessment Suggestions Literature Connections Summary Outlines "In this era of hype about hands-on activities, the school yard is too often given short shrift, except for occasional nature walks.... The book, a product of a team effort, underwent extensive tryout and review by teachers and specialists, and it shows."-"Science Books & Films," August/September "Overall this is a very thorough presentation of five excellentecological activities for children. This is the way science should be taught. The investigations encourage children to learn by "doing" and to discover for themselves how organisms interact with each other and their environment. The activities are also invaluable because they foster in children an appreciation and stewardship for other living things. If they can be taught to value spiders and ants, the rest will be easy."-"The American Biology Teacher," May
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Temes, Peter S., PUBLISHER: Three Rivers Press (CA), "The Power of Purpose" begins with a simple but remarkable statement: "The more you focus on helping others, the more you will succeed in reaching your own goals." Peter S. Temes builds on this fundamental insight to share a simple plan for living with the truest and most enduring kind of happiness. At the heart of "The Power of Purpose" are the "three levels of thinking." At the first level, we ask, Who am I? and What do I want? At the second level, we ask, Who do other people think I am? How do I look to them? But the real magic happens when we hit the third level, forgetting about ourselves and asking the questions that lend a powerful sense of purpose to our lives: How do others look to themselves? How can I help others become the people they want to be? To help us along the way, Temes, who teaches humanities at Columbia University, draws on the wisdom of great thinkers including Aristotle, Soren Kierkegaard, and Abraham Lincoln; the life lessons of great achievers ranging from Mother Teresa to Michael Jordan; and home truths he's gathered from his parents, his grandparents, and his three children. From all these sources and from his own life of great personal accomplishment, Temes identifies the essential knowledge that brings people happiness and success. He cites Aristotle's notion that happiness is not a psychological state but a moral one, resulting from doing good in the world. Temes also believes in the pivotal importance of trust and team-building in every area of life, from the family to the workplace to the street corner. "The Power of Purpose" is a map for finding the confidence and power, the opportunities and occasions, and--most important--the techniques and strategies for centering your relationships and work on helping others. It is a book with a point of view: the clearest path to your own success and happiness lies in helping others get to where they want to go. "From the Hardcover edition."
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: McCabe, Kevin / Montgomery, Lucy Maud / Ferns, John, PUBLISHER: Fitzhenry & Whiteside, The poems in this collection by Lucy Maud Montgomery were written to reach the readers she thought of as "kindred spirits" - those thousands of people who then, as now, would be as deeply moved as she was by beauty in nature and in spirit. She felt herself drenched with beauty. It was an emotion that evolves heart-deep recognition in readers who will find an echo of their own yearnings and hungers for emotional outlet. Maud Montgomery was well aware that greatness as a poet was beyond her reach, but her verses were capable of putting into words what ordinary people felt and often could not explain. They express the sense of awe and delight arising from the simple human experiences of all that is lovely in the world. "I've written one real poem out of my heart," she confided to a friend in a week when she had sent off several verses she knew to be pot-boilers. But even these held a small kernel of thought, of appreciation, of gratitude for the gift of natural beauty. The poems in this collection will reach as deeply into the heart of today's readers as they did in those who first read them half a century ago. Critics are now finding new insights and much genuine ability in Montgomery's poetry, but the poems remain poems for people. She wrote for people who hunger for a way to give voice to their deepest thoughts and emotions. She wrote as an artist paints, in vivid scenes with vivid colours. Her verses are clearly defined gem-like vignettes depicting familiar scenes beloved by all the friends of the earth. She writes of clouds and sky, the clash and thunder of waves on a seashore, the scents of garden and woodland, the kinship of humanity with whatever gods there be. The qualities of simplicity and earnestness are not to be spurned. While ordinary people can respond to these eternal truths, Montgomery's poems will continue to be read and treasured.
