Pogue's Basics: Life
David Pogue
Oprah Winfrey
Did you know that you can use the indented rings on a red
plastic cup as measurements for 1, 5, and 12 ounces, the
standard serving sizes for liquor, wine, and beer? That a
Chinese food box is designed to unfold flat and form a
plate? When you buy aluminum foil or saran wrap, did you
know that there's a press-in tab on the end panel of the box
that you're supposed pop in that acts as an axle for the roll
and prevents it from leaping out of the box when you tug?
Another extremely helpful piece of advice? Statistically
speaking, on average the lowest plane fare for a given ticket
is available 52 days before the flight. Following the success
of the New York Times bestselling Pogue's Basics: Tech
comes the next book in the series Pogue's Basics: Life
which will be a timeless reference book of 200 simple tips
and shortcuts that just make life easier, shedding light on
valuable bits of advice and life hacks that already exist in
the world around you, but you just never knew!

In the first issue of O, The Oprah Magazine, Oprah wrote:
'We are all the causes of our own effects . . . That's why
I'll never stop asking the question, "What do you know for
sure?"' In the fourteen years since Oprah wrote those
words, she has retired The Oprah Winfrey Show,
launched her own television network, become America's
only black billionaire, lost beloved pets and adopted new
ones, watched friends and colleagues come and go,
celebrated milestone birthdays - and through it all, she's
continued to offer profound and inspiring words of
wisdom in her monthly O column, 'What I Know For
Sure'. These thoughtful gems have been revised,
updated and collected in What I Know For Sure, a
beautiful book packed with insight and revelation from
Oprah Winfrey. Organized by theme, these essays offer
a rare and powerful glimpse into the mind of one of the
world's most extraordinary women.

Boys in the Trees
$24.99
From the iconic and legendary Carly Simon comes the
memoir people have been waiting decades to read. Boys
in the Trees is a rhapsodic, beautifully compelling memoir
of a young woman's coming of age amid the glamorous
literati and intelligentsia of Manhattan (her father was
Richard Simon, co-founder of Simon & Schuster), the pain
of loss and betrayal early on in life, and the strength to
leave that all behind and forge a path of art, music and
love in the golden age of folk and rock. At once an
insider's look into a life lived in the spotlight, a lyric
reflection on a particular time in our culture's history, and a
beautiful memoir about the pains and joys of love and art
as soaring as Patti Smith's Just Kids, and shocking as
Keith Richard's Life, Boys in the Trees is the story Carly
Simon has long been waiting to tell the world.

Another Side of Bob Dylan
Woody
Victor Maymudes
David Evanier
A memoir by Bob Dylan's former tour manager, and one of
his closest personal friends and confidants. Another Side
of Bob Dylan recounts landmark events including Dylan's
infamous motorcycle crash and meeting the Beatles on
their first US tour; his marriage to Sara Lownds, his
romances with Suze Rotolo, Joan Baez, and others; fellow
travellers Ramblin' Jack Elliott, Wavy Gravy, Dennis
Hopper, The Band, The Traveling Wilburys, and more;
memorable concerts, and insights on Dylan's songwriting
process. In 2001, after recording more than 24 hours of
taped memories in preparation for writing this book, Victor
Maymudes suffered an aneurysm and died. His son Jacob
has written the book, using the tapes to shape the story.
The result is a vivid, first-hand account of Dylan as an
artist, friend, and celebrity, illustrated with never-beforeseen photographs, and told by an engaging raconteur who
cut his own swathe through the turbulent counterculture.

Woody Allen is not only one of the great movie directors
but one of the foremost creative artists of our time. In over
45 movies and through a career that's included stand-up,
play-writing, screenwriting, directing, and acting, Woody
has evolved more than reinvented himself. In the first
biography of Allen in over 20 years, David Evanier writes
about Allen's private life as well as his very public career.
He untangles fact from rumour about Allen's relationship
with Mia Farrow as well as the great scandals that
surfaced in the 1990s and recently resurfaced, and makes
thoughtful connections between Allen's romantic
relationships and the characters in his movies. In fresh
interviews with collaborators, boyhood pals, family and
friends, Evanier fills in fascinating details about where
Woody came from, how he got his start, and how he has
been able make exactly the movies that interest him most
with the people who interest him most.

Observer columnist Jennifer Wright guides you through 13
of the worst breakups of notable figures in history - from
Emperor Nero (sadist, murderer several times over), to
Viennese artist Oskar Kokoschka (he of the
aforementioned sex doll), to Norman Mailer (public
stabbing). With her conversational tone and considerable
wit, Wright digs deep into the archives to bring these
terrible breakups to life. It's fun, pop history that educates,

Keep Merry and Color On
Over the past few decades, physicists have discovered a
phenomenon that operates outside the confines of space
and time. The phenomenon - the ability of one particle to
affect another instantly across the vastness of space appears to be almost magical. In Spooky Action at a
Distance, Musser guides us on an epic journey of
scientific discovery into the lives of experimental physicists
observing particles acting in tandem, astronomers
discovering galaxies that look statistically identical, and
cosmologists hoping to unravel the paradoxes surrounding
the big bang. Their conclusions challenge our
understanding not only of space and time but of the origins
of the universe-and their insights are spurring profound
technological innovation and suggesting a new grand
unified theory of physics.

create a cleaner, healthier, smarter world.

The Supermodel and the Brillo Box
The Supermodel and the Brillo Box follows Don
Thompson's 2008 bestseller The $12 Million Stuffed
Shark and offers a further journey of discovery into what
the Crash of 2008 did to the art market and the changing
methods that the major auction houses and dealerships
have implemented since then. It begins with the story of a
wax, trophy-style, nude upper-body sculpture of
supermodel Stephanie Seymour by Italian artist Maurizio
Cattelan, which sold for $2.4 million to New York übercollector and private dealer Jose Mugrabi, and recounts
the story of a wooden Brillo box that sold for $722,500.
The Supermodel and the Brillo Box looks at the
increasing dominance of Christie's, Sotheby's, and a few
über dealers; the hundreds of millions of new museums
coming up in cities like Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Beijing; the
growing importance of the digital art world; and the
shrinking role of the mainstream gallery.

Beekeeping is a relaxing and intriguing hobby that
requires little time. It yields fresh, local honey that
beekeepers can keep or share, and bees help pollinate
nearby gardens, trees and crops, which need help. Around
the country, bee populations are declining - in part
because bees raised to pollinate crops are not as durable
as wild bees. Save the Bees has the solution. Save the
Bees will walk readers through the inexpensive and easy
to use equipment, their method for acquiring a hive for
free, caring for the bees as they grow their colony,
harvesting honey and prepping their bees for the cooler
months. With the Save the Bees approach, readers will
learn to attract, care for and manage wild bees without the
use of chemicals or pesticide. With minimal upkeep, the
hives will pollinate local crops and flowers and provide a
bounty of delicious, all-natural, backyard honey.

There is no question that tensions between Russia and
America are on the rise. The forced annexation of Crimea,
the downing of Malaysia Airlines flight 17, and the Russian
government's treatment of homosexuals have created
diplomatic standoffs and led to a volley of economic
sanctions. Much of the blame for Russia's recent hostility
towards the West has fallen on steely-eyed President
Vladimir Putin... In Putinism, Laqueur deftly demonstrates
how three long-standing pillars of Russian ideology: a
strong belief in the Orthodox Church, a sense of Eurasian
"manifest destiny", and a fear of foreign enemies, continue
to exert a powerful influence on the Russian populace. As
a result, Putin may well be much more a servant of his
people than we think.

A memoir in cartoons by the longtime cartoon editor of
The New Yorker. People tell Bob Mankoff that as the
cartoon editor of The New Yorker he has the best job in
the world. Never one to beat around the bush, he explains
to us, in the opening of this singular, delightfully eccentric
book, that because he is also a cartoonist at the magazine
he actually has two of the best jobs in the world. Mankoff
also takes up the psychology of cartooning, analysing why
some cartoons make us laugh and others don't. He allows
us into the hallowed halls of The New Yorker to show us
the soup-to-nuts process of cartoon creation, giving us a
detailed look not only at his own work but that of the other
talented cartoonists who keep us laughing week after
week. For dessert, he reveals the secrets to winning the
magazine's caption contest. Throughout, we see his
commitment to the motto "Anything worth saying is worth
saying funny."

Outback Women's Stories
Paul Bugeja

The word "amazon" generally conjures up images of wild
and powerful warrior women, fighting off foes in some
primitive matriarchal society where they rule over men
who have been subverted to more menial roles. Outback
Women's Stories is a compilation of significant Australian
women of simple but important character traits - strength,
fortitude and courage. Australia has grown from penal
colony to modern nation and important player on the
global stage, and during this period there have been any
number of women who have courageously taken on the
multifarious and sometimes death-defying challenges the
Aussie outback has thrown at them, often alongside the
man they loved with a gaggle of children in tow. These
women have faced their trials admirably, with rarely a
word of complaint, and continue to do so to this day - they
are our Aussie Amazons.

Presented as a satirical fictional debate, Global Warming
and Other Trivia blends together two streams: a
methodical part - centred on the conflict of opinion
between the beliefs that global warming is real and the
opposite view questioning if such a phenomenon does
indeed exist - and a satirical one - involving frequent
hilarious exchanges and quips.

Looking Through You
Tom Adams
First substantial overview of the life and career of Pharrell
Williams, the foremost producer of the modern era, and
performer in his own right. It follows him from his days
growing up in Virginia, his meeting with musical partner
Chad Hugo and formation of The Neptunes, through his
collaborations with the great and the good of pop, rap and
R&B, including Jay-Z, Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake,
Usher, Snoop Dogg, Gwen Stefani, Nelly and Kelis. It
assesses his ground-breaking work with the radical raprock-pop band N*E*R*D, and his emergence as a solo
superstar via Daft Punk's Get Lucky, Robin Thicke's
controversial Blurred Lines and global mega-hit Happy. It
delves behind the immaculate facade to find out what
makes Williams one of the most driven and inventive
musicians of the last 20 years.
