Attkisson broke news of a whistleblower in the Obama administration’s “Fast and Furious” scandal, exposed its green energy boondoggles, and treated the terrorist attacks in Benghazi as a legitimate scandal. The journalist has recently been the subject of press coverage herself as it has become known that her computers were being monitored by unauthorized intruders—a fact confirmed by CBS News forensic analysts. The story has been covered extensively on the Drudge Report, the Washington Post, Associated Press, and many other outlets. She has talked about the breach of the privacy on CBS News and the O’Reilly Factor. Summary
Seasoned CBS reporter Sharyl Attkisson reveals how she has been electronically surveilled while digging deep into the Obama Administration and its scandals, and offers an incisive critique of her industry and the shrinking role of investigative journalism in today’s media Americans are at the mercy of powerful figures in business and government who are virtually unaccountable. The Obama Administration in particular has broken new ground in its monitoring of journalists, intimidation and harassment of opposition groups, and surveillance of private citizens. Sharyl Attkisson has been a journalist for more than thirty years. During that time she has exposed scandals and covered controversies under both Republican and Democratic administrations. She has also seen the opponents of transparency go to ever greater lengths to discourage and obstruct legitimate reporting. Attkisson herself has been subjected to “opposition research” efforts and spin campaigns.

At the indies, it peaked at #5 on the national list, and was in the top fifteen—in the majority of cases, the top ten—on all the major regional lists (MIDW, NAIBA, NEIBA, MPIBA, SIBA, PNBA, and NCIBA). Dan is the coanchor of Nightline and Weekend Good Morning America and has gotten extraordinary support from ABC, as well as elsewhere in the media. He’s appeared on shows as varied as The Colbert Report, CNN, World News Tonight, and has cohosted The View; interviews and features ran everywhere from the Boston Globe to Men’s Journal to the Wall Street Journal and USA Today. And he continues to promote the book through regular speaking engagements around the country. If the explosion of books on the subject by everyone from Russell Simmons to Arianna Huffington is any indication, meditation is at a tipping point—an underground obsession that is in the process of swinging from the new age margins into the very center of the mainstream. There are an estimated 10 million Americans practicing some form of mediation today and a million new meditators join them each year. The wellness market (which includes meditation, mindfulness, and the mind/body connection) is valued at $1.9 trillion annually. Despite the inroads mediation has already made, millions of people who could benefit from this practice have closed their minds to it. Dan has proven himself a highly relatable advocate for the cause. Honest, personable, and very funny, he continues to resonate with readers and is quickly becoming the face of mainstream meditation.

After having a nationally televised panic attack, Dan Harris knew he had to make some changes. A lifelong nonbeliever, he found himself on a bizarre adventure involving a disgraced pastor, a mysterious selfhelp guru, and a gaggle of brain scientists. Eventually, Harris realized that the source of his problems was the very thing he always thought was his greatest asset: the incessant, insatiable voice in his head, which had propelled him through the ranks of a hypercompetitive business, but had also led him to make the profoundly stupid decisions that provoked his onair freakout. Eventually Harris stumbled upon an effective way to rein in that voice, something he always assumed to be either impossible or useless: meditation, a tool that research suggests can do everything from lower your blood pressure to essentially rewire your brain. 10% Happier takes readers on a ride from the outer reaches of neuroscience to the inner sanctum of network news to bizarre fringes of America’s spiritu...

Business is one of the most important systems of our lives. In our Western societies, we spend most of our waking hours at work, and the products and experiences we buy effectively define us. And yet business seems divorced from the true expression of our humanity. For many of us, something is missing, something both essential and immeasurable: romance. Against the backdrop of eroding trust in capitalism, pervasive technology, big data, and the desire to quantify all of our behaviors, The Business Romantic makes a compelling case that we must meld the pursuit of success and achievement with romance if we want to create an economy that serves our entire selves.

“The Calorie Myth will do more to assist people with their health than all the popular diet books currently out there put together. I want to shout, ‘Bravo! Finally someone gets it!’” —Christiane Northrup, MD, OB/GYN, physician and author of the bestsellers Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom and The Wi... In this revolutionary weightloss program informed by more than 1,200 scientific studies, fitness and diet expert Jonathan Bailor offers concrete evidence that the calorie
counting model of weight loss doesn’t work. In fact, cuttingedge science supports a radically different approach to weight loss and health, proving that by focusing on food and exercise quality—rather than calorie quantity—you can burn fat and boost health more easily and enjoyably that you ever thought possible. The human body does not recognize all calories as equal. Some foods are used to repair tissue, boost brain power, and fuel our metabolismwhile others are stored as fat. In The Calorie Myth, Bailor shows us how eating more of the right kinds of foods and exercising less, but at a higher intensity, is the true formula for burning fat. 26

Reconstruction chronicles the way in which Americans—black and white—responded to the unprecedented changes unleashed by the war and the end of slavery. It addresses the quest of emancipated slaves’ searching for economic autonomy and equal citizenship, and describes the remodeling of Southern society; the evolution of racial attitudes and patterns of race relations; and the emergence of a national state possessing vastly expanded authority and one committed, for a time, to the principle of equal rights for all Americans. This “masterful treatment of one of the most complex periods of American history” (New Republic) remains the standard work on the wrenching postCivil War period—an era whose legacy still reverberates in the United States today. “Foner’s book traces in rich detail the bitter course of the history of the South’s failure to adjust to the revolution that ...

In a city where someone is murdered almost every day, attorney Michael Abramowitz’s death should be just another statistic. But the slain lawyer’s notoriety—and his taste for illicit midday trysts—make the case frontpage news in every local paper except the Star, which crashed and burned before Abramowitz did. A former Star reporter who knows every inch of this town—from historic Fort McHenry to the crumbling projects of Cherry Hill—now unemployed journalist Tess Monaghan also knows the guy the cops like for the killing: cuckolded fiancé Darryl “Rock” Paxton. The time is ripe for a career move, so when rowing buddy Rock wants to hire her to do some unorthodox snooping to help clear his name, Tess agrees. But there are lethal secrets hiding in the Charm City shadows. And Tess’ own name could end up on that everexpanding list of Baltimore dead. Author Bio

There she hopes to develop a sense of direction—both in the woods and in her life. Told with rare insight, wry humor, and remarkable honesty, Out of the Woods reveals how honing the skills of navigation—literal and metaphorical—smoothed one woman’s path. It is a story at once universal and deeply personal—in the words of writer Geraldine Brooks, “both a compass and a manifesto for navigating the oftentreacherous switchbacks of the second half of life.” Author Bio

As the “family” focus shifts back to a “couples” focus, serious questions arise for each partner: Who am I now? Who are you? Who are we together? These questions go to the heart of a relationship, and the answers can often lead to conflict and ultimately, divorce. Even the best relationships can founder as children grow up and leave home. Career change, financial uncertainty, job loss, infidelity, serious illness, or a partner’s changing needs, values, and anxieties can threaten marital life. More subtle and dramatic still are the profoundly different personal changes men and women undergo at midlife—emotional transformations that can irrevocably alter a marriage’s dynamic.

When a fourteenyearold girl is the alleged victim of a terrible act of racial violence, the incident shocks and galvanizes her community, exacerbating the racial tension that has been simmering in this New Jersey town for decades. In this magisterial work of fiction, Joyce Carol Oates explores the uneasy fault lines in a racially troubled society. In such a tense, charged atmosphere, Oates reveals that there must always be a sacrifice—of innocence, truth, trust, and, ultimately, of lives. Unfolding in a succession of multiracial voices, in a community transfixed by this alleged crime and the spectacle unfolding around it, this profound novel exposes what—and who—the “sacrifice” actually is, and what consequences these kind of events hold for us all. Working at the height of her powers, Oates offers a sympathetic portrait of the young girl and her mother, and challenges our expectations and beliefs about our society, our biases, and ourselves.

Phillips turned thirty, she fell in love with someone who didn’t return her feelings. She soon became obsessed. She followed him around, called him compulsively, and talked about him endlessly.

Her unrequited love had changed her from a sane, conscientious college teacher and radio reporter into someone she barely recognized—someone who was taking her yearning much too far. In Unrequited, Lisa A. Phillips explores the tremendous force of obsessive love in women’s lives. She argues that it needs to be understood, respected, and channeled for personal growth—yet it also has the potential to go terribly awry.

winning Paralympic sprinter Oscar Pistorius, from his personal and athletic success to the murder charge that rocked the world and put both the man, and postApartheid South Africa, on trial Oscar Pistorius made history as the first amputee to compete against ablebodied runners at the 2012 London Olympics. A hero in his native South Africa, the “Blade Runner” as he is known for his futuristic prosthetic legs, became a global icon of resilience and determination. But less than a year later, Pistorius rocked the world once again when he shot his girlfriend, model Reeva Steenkamp, through a closed bathroom door in the early hours of February14, 2013.

Yet when they do, they are derided as “sluts.” Caught in a double bind of mixed sexual messages, young women are confused. To fulfill the contradictory roles of being sexy but not slutty, they create an “experienced” identity on social mediaeven if they are not sexually active—while ironically referring to themselves and their friends as “sluts.” But this strategy can become a weapon used against young women in the hands of peers who circulate rumors and innuendo—elevating ageold slutshaming to deadly levels, with suicide among bullied teenage girls becoming increasingly common.

Gazzaniga, “the father of cognitive neuroscience,” was part of a team of pioneering neuroscientists who developed the now foundational splitbrain brain theory: the notion that the right and left hemispheres of the brain can act independently from one another and have different strengths. In Tales from Both Sides of the Brain, Gazzaniga tells the impassioned story of his life in science and his decadeslong journey to understand how the separate spheres of our brains communicate and miscommunicate with their separate agendas. By turns humorous and moving, Tales from Both Sides of the Brain interweaves Gazzaniga’s scientific achievements with his reflections on the challenges and thrills of working as a scientist. In his engaging and accessible style, he paints a vivid portrait not only of his discovery of splitbrain theory, but also of his comrades in arms—the many patients, friends, and family who have accompanied him on this wild ride of inte...

In Wearing God, Lauren Winner gathers a number of lesserknown tropes, reflecting on how they work biblically and culturally, and reveals how they can deepen our spiritual lives. Exploring the notion of God as clothing, Winner reflects on how we are “clothed with Christ” or how “God fits us like a garment.” She then analyzes how clothing functions culturally to shape our ideals and identify our community, and ruminates on how this new metaphor can function to create new possibilities for our lives. For each biblical metaphor—God as the vine/vintner who animates life; the lactation consultant; and the comedian, showing us our follies, for example—Winner surveys the historical, literary, and cultural landscapes in order to revive and heal our souls.

In addition to pounds lost, many people in the test groups have lost as much as 20 inches in 20 days; we will incorporate their stories and beforeandafter photos in the book. High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is the latest trend in the fitness movement. From Jonathan Bailor to Abel James and many others, the true experts are recommending this sciencebacked approach to weight loss. Summary
The former Biggest Loser star and celebrity trainer presents a high intensity workout and eating plan that delivers big results in just 20 minutes a day From his days as a trainer on The Biggest Loser, Bret Hoebel knows that when people log hours on a treadmill, they’ll lose weight. But he also knows that most of his clients don’t have the schedule or the desire to spend that much time at the gym. And the truth is—the number of minutes you spend working out isn’t the key to weight loss: intensity is. Time and again, Brett meets clients who’ve been making the same mistakes—not only are they focused on the clock, but they’re also concentrating on fat burn and pounds lost as markers of success. And with a fatfirst focus on losing weight, plateaus come quick and often. But it’s not about fat, it’s about muscle. In The 20Minute Body, Brett explains why the key to long term weight loss is building muscle. The more lean muscle your body has, the more calories your body will burn at rest. Metabolic muscle is the secret to fast metabolism. And all you need is 20 minutes a day to create it. Additionally, when you focus on inches, not pounds, yo... Author Bio

But these tactics often are not effective. A better approach to spread Christ’s word, Dallas Willard suggests, is to use the example of our own lives. To demonstrate Jesus’s message, we must be transformed people living out a life reflective of Jesus himself, a life of love, humility, and gentleness. This beautiful model of life—this allure of gentleness—Willard argues, is the foundation for making the most compelling argument for Christianity, one that will convince others that there is something special about Christianity and the Jesus we follow.

Just a few years after the Lewis and Clark expedition concluded in 1806, these two visionaries turned their sights westward once again—to settle a colony on the Pacific coast. Astor backed this ambitious enterprise with his vast fortune. He dispatched two groups of men west: one by sea around the southern tip of South America and one by land over the Rockies. More than half of his men died violent deaths. The others survived starvation, madness, and greed to shape the destiny of a continent. Unfolding from 1810 to 1813, Astoria is a tale of high adventure and incredible hardship, drawing extensively on firsthand accounts of those who made the journey. Though the colony itself would be shortlived, its founders opened provincial American eyes to the remarkable potential of t... Author Bio

As a book by a famous working scientist offering provocative comments on the nature of science and its impact on the world, it will be enjoyed by fans of modern books by Freeman Dyson, E.O. Wilson, and Stephen Gould, and is very much in the tradition of earlier works by Erwin Schroedinger, Sir James Jeans, and Thomas Huxley.

He shows that the scientists of ancient and medieval times not only did not understand what we understand about the world—they did not understand what there is to understand, or how to understand it. Yet over the centuries, through the struggle to solve such mysteries as the curious backward movement of the planets and the rise and fall of the tides, the modern discipline of science eventually emerged.

Morris has a sterling reputation as a biographer—his previous book Pulitzer was deemed one of the five best books on American moguls by the Wall Street Journal, and Booklist named it one of the ten best biographies of 2010. The Rose Man of Sing Sing, meanwhile, was selected as a Washington Post Best Book of the Year. Summary

Summary
New York Times Bestselling Author “Must read. . . . Mazzeo artfully transports readers to the Nazi occupation of World War II . . . The Hôtel on Place Vendôme contextualizes the opulence of 1940s Paris, making for a work of history that reads as enticingly as a novel.” —Harper’s Bazaar Established in 1898 in the heart of Paris on the Place Vendôme, the Hôtel Ritz instantly became an icon of the city frequented by film stars and celebrity writers, American heiresses and risqué flappers, politicians, playboys, and princes. In June 1940, when France fell to the Germans, orders from Berlin specified that the Hôtel Ritz would be the only luxury hotel of its kind in occupied Paris. Tilar J. Mazzeo traces the history of this cultural landmark from its opening in fin de siècle Paris to the modern era. At its center, The Hôtel on Place Vendôme chronicles life at the Ritz during wartime, when the hotel simultaneously served as headquarters to the highestranking German officers, such as Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring, and home to wealthy patrons (and to the spies among them) who stayed on in Paris. Mazzeo takes us into the grand palace’s suites, bars, dining rooms, and wine cellars, revealing a hotbed of illicit affairs and deadly intrigue, as well as stunning acts of defiance ... Author Bio

In this controversial and landmark work, Dr. Richard Saul draws from five decades as a practicing physician and researcher in the field to contend that the definition of ADHD as we know it is completely wrong. Instead, he argues that the “disorder” is a cluster of symptoms stemming from more than twenty other conditions, each requiring separate treatment.

A CHARISMATIC, TROUBLED HERO: Major Gant’s skill, success, ruthlessness and compassion have earned him a reputation as a largerthanlife character in the Special Forces for nearly 20 years. With his tattoos, beard, and long hair, he is the definition of the rogue warrior who’s ‘gone native’ a la ‘Lawrence of Arabia’. He is also a man beset by demons, depression, and very real fears that his dreams will be undermined by some in the US military, people he needs, but cannot fully trust. PERFECT WRITER FOR THIS STORY: Pulitzernominee Ann Scott Tyson has come under fire many times on missions with small infantry units. She has seen death up close and understands the psychological effects of war. She is conversant in the Pashto language, and risked her life to embed with these tribes, where she had unprecedented access because of her relationship with Gant. A NEW VIEW OF AMERICANS AT WAR: Tyson’s is a very unique point of view: that of an American woman on the front lines of the Afghan tribal war. She sits with tribal elders, goes on combat patrols, meets former Taliban, and goes into the private quarters of the village with Afghan women to learn about their lives. TOP MILITARY BRASS SUPPORT: Gen. David Petraeus, the top American commander in Afghanistan, and Adm. Eric Olson, head of Special Operations Command, are the godfathers of Gant’s strategy and have granted Tyson unusual access. ACQUIRED AT AUCTION: We won a heated fiveway auction for the opportunity to publish this unusual book.
Summary
Lawrence of Arabia meets Sebastian Junger’s War in this incendiary and dramatic true story of heroism and heartbreak in Afghanistan written by a Pulitzer Prize
nominated war correspondent “A riveting account . . . of an inspiring, gifted, courageous leader. An extraordinary, gripping book.” —General... Some have called him “Lawrence of Afghanistan.” To the Pashtun tribesmen he is “Commander Jim,” leader of the “bearded ones.” He is Army Special Forces Major Jim Gant, one of the most charismatic and controversial U.S. commanders of modern memory, a man who changed the face of America’s war in Afghanistan when his critical white paper, “One Tribe at a Time,” went viral at the Pentagon, the White House, and on Capitol Hill in 2009. A decorated Green Beret, Jim argued for embedding autonomous units with tribes across Afghanistan: these American soldiers would live among Afghans for extended periods, not only to train and equip tribal militias, but to fight—and even die—alongside them in battle. He argued that we could earn the trust of the Afghans and transform them into a reliable ally with whom we could defeat the Taliban and Al Qaeda networks. The military’s top brass approved the plan and gave Jim the goahead to embark on the mission. As correspondent Ann Scott Tyson got to know Jim G... 160

Contrary to conventional wisdom, chronic disease is not genetically predetermined but results from a mismatch between our genes and environment and lifestyle. What we call a “disease” is the outcome of an imbalance in one or more of the seven core physiological processes. Leveraging a lifetime on the cutting edge of research, Dr. Jeffrey S. Bland lays out a road map for good health by helping us understand these processes and the root causes of chronic illness. As Bland teaches us, no two people have the identical form of any disease, so with the right personalized program, we can safely and effectively manage and ultimately cure what ails us. In the twentyfirst century, medicine is undergoing a paradigm shift comparable to the advances in infectious disease in the late nineteenth century.

Considered a classic of speculative fiction, combining elements of First Contact science fiction and a tense courtroom drama, The Sparrow has sold over a million copies worldwide since its publication in 1996, and been translated into over a dozen languages. The Sparrow and its sequel, Children of God, have won eight regional, national and international awards. They have inspired both a rock opera and a fullscale bel canto opera. The novels have been optioned for feature films starring Antonio Banderas (Universal) and Brad Pitt (Warner Brothers). They are currently in development for a television series to be aired on AMC. Doc, the prequel to Epitaph, has sold over 50,000 copies combined, was nominated for the 2011 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, and is currently under option by Ron Howard and Akiva Goldsman. Stories of the American West and its largerthanlife 19th century heroes and villains loom large in the popular imagination; Epitaph, a retelling of the shootout at the OK Corral and its aftermath from the perspective of Josephine Earp, Wyatt Earp’s wife, exploits this fascination while capitalizing on the allure of fresh, historically underrepresented perspective. From the fascinating, fraught, and wholly original but difficult lives of women in the American West to the atmosphere of 19t century San Francisco, Russell vividly transports readers to settings distant both in time and culture. Epitaph is both extensively researched and beautifully detailed. As a novelist, Mary is known for her exacting research—no surprise, when you learn that she holds a Ph.D. in Anthropology from the University of Michigan. Summary

A deeply divided nation. Vicious politics. A shamelessly partisan media. A president loathed by half the populace. Smuggling and gang warfare along the Mexican border. Armed citizens willing to stand their ground and take law into their own hands... That was America in 1881. All those forces came to bear on the afternoon of October 26th when Doc Holliday and the Earp brothers faced off against the Clantons and the McLaurys in Tombstone, Arizona. It should have been a simple misdemeanor arrest. Thirty seconds and thirty bullets later, three officers were wounded and three citizens lay dead in the dirt. Wyatt Earp was the last man standing, the only one unscathed. The lies began before the smoke cleared, but the gunfight at the O.K. Corral would soon become central to American beliefs about the Old West. Epitaph tells Wyatt’s real story, unearthing the Homeric tragedy buried under 130 years of mythology, misrepresentation, and sheer indifference to fact. Epic and intimate, this 171

Many portions of the New Testament, introduce a compassionate Jesus who turns the other cheek, loves his enemies, and shows grace to all. But the Jesus we find in Revelation and some portions of the Gospels leads an army of angels bent on earthly destruction. Which is the true revelation of the Messiah—and how can both be in the same Bible? How to Read the Bible and Still be a Christian explores this question and offers guidance for the faithful conflicted over which version of the Lord to worship. John Dominic Crossan reconciles these contrasting views, revealing how different writers of the books of the Bible not only possessed different visions of God but also different purposes for writing. Often these books are explicitly competing against another, opposing vision of God from the Bible itself. Crossan explains how to navigate this debate and offers what he believes is the best central thread to what the Bible is all about. He challenges Christians to fully participate in this dial...

Summary
An acclaimed surgeon specializing in weight loss delivers a paradigmshifting examination of the diet and health industry’s focus on protein, explaining why it is detrimental to our health, and can prevent us from losing weight Whether you are seeing a doctor, nutritionist, or a trainer, all of them advise to eat more protein. Foods, drinks, and supplements are loaded with extra protein. Many people use protein for weight control, to gain or lose pounds, while others believe it gives them more energy and is essential for a longer, healthier life. Now, Dr. Garth Davis, an expert in weight loss asks, “Is all this protein making us healthier?” The answer, he emphatically argues, is NO. Too much protein is actually making us sick, fat, and tired, according to Dr. Davis. If you are getting adequate calories in your diet, there is no such thing as protein deficiency. The healthiest countries in the world eat far less protein than we do and yet we have an entire nation on a protein binge getting sicker by the day. As a surgeon treating obese patients, Dr. Davis was frustrated by the everincreasing number of sick and overweight patients, but it wasn't until his own health scare that he realized he could do something ...

The first book in the series, Spiritual Direction, introduced readers to core concepts of Nouwen’s approach to the spiritual life. Book two, Spiritual Formation, showcases Nouwen’s lifelong effort to reconstruct the five classical stages of spiritual development as movements in the journey of faith: Awakening (our desire); Purgation (purifying our passions); Illumination (of God); Dark Night (of the Soul); and U...

He attended his first rave in 1993 and began writing professionally about this scene starting in the '90s. According to the New York Times, the EDM industry is now worth an estimated $4.5 billion. EDM draws massive crowds at festivals like Electric Zoo and Electric Daisy—along with events backed by corporate magnates like Steve Wynn—and it is conquering the recording industry as well, with superstars like Swedish House Mafia and Avicii. As Greil Marcus and Legs McNeil served as chroniclers of rock and punk, Matos now authoritatively archives this significant part of American popcultural history. Summary
Joining the ranks of Please Kill Me and Can’t Stop Won’t Stop comes this definitive chronicle of one of the hottest trends in popular culture—electronic dance music—from the noted authority covering the scene It is the sound of the millennial generation, the music “defining youth culture of the 2010s” (Rolling Stone). Rooted in American techno/house and ’90s rave culture, electronic dance music has evolved into the biggest moneymaker on the concert circuit. Music journalist Michaelangelo Matos has been covering this beat since its genesis, and in The Underground Is Massive, charts for the first time the birth and rise of this last great outlaw musical subculture. Drawing on a vast array of resources, including hundreds of interviews and a library of rare artifacts, from rave fanzines to online mailinglist archives, Matos reveals how EDM blossomed in tandem with the nascent Internet—message boards and chat lines connected partiers from town to town. In turn, these ravers, many early technology adopters, helped spearhead the information revolution. As tech was the tool, Ecstasy—
(Molly, as it’s know today) an empathic drug that heightens sensory pleasure—was the narcotic fueling this alternati... Author Bio

It’s open to the rain. Birds nest in its seats. Officials of the surrounding county consider it junk. To Tommy Arney, it’s anything but: It’s a fossil of the twentiethcentury American experience, of a place and a people utterly devoted to the automobile and changed by it in myriad ways. It’s a piece of history—especially so because its flaking skin conceals a rare asset: a complete provenance, stretching back more than fifty years. So, hassled by a growing assortment of challengers, the Chevy’s thirteenth owner—an orphan, gradeschool dropout and rounder, a felon arrested seventyodd times, and a man who's been written off as a ruin himself—embarks on a mission to save the car and preserve long record of human experience it carries in its steel and upholstery.

The pulse of rock’n’roll—the drummer—finally gets its due in this unique, all
encompassing inside look at the history, artists, instruments, and culture of drumming Beating the hell out of a drum kit is hard, sweaty, demanding work. Yet instead of being showered with respect, drummers are often viewed with derision—stereotyped as crazy, borderline psychotic, or just plain dumb. But as every musician knows, to have a great band you need a great drummer: Ginger Baker. John Bonham. Chad Smith. Stewart Copeland. Lars Ulrich. Neil Peart. For the first time, journalist Tony Barrell shines a long overdue spotlight on these musicians, offering an exciting look into their world, their art, and their personalities. In Born to Drum, Barrell explores the extraordinary history of the world’s most primitive instrument and the musicians who have made it legend.

Tony Jones, popular progressive Christian blogger, author, and scholar, argues that this understanding is actually a medieval invention and not what the Bible really teaches. He looks beyond medieval convictions and liberates how we see Jesus’s death on the cross from this restrictive paradigm. Christians today must transcend the shame and guilt that have shaped conceptions of the human soul and made us fearful of God, and replace them with love, grace, and joyfulness, which better expresses what the cross is really about. How we understand the cross reflects directly what kind of God we worship.

Hardcover 384 pages Carton Qty: 1 Fiction / Biographical FIC041000 Chanel’s brand is eternally popular and Coco herself is an icon, named one of Time’s most influential figures of the 20th century. Her full story has never been told in a novel . . . until now. While Chanel’s popularity has never wavered since Coco’s death, her personal reputation suffered due to allegations that she was a Nazi collaborator. Two well
received biographies in recent years delve into those claims and have fanned the flames of controversy. While it remains faithful to historical record, this dramatic, sweeping biopic is full of lush descriptions of clothing and jewelry and abulous encounters with luminaries like Picasso, Dali, and Stravinsky, and captures the deprivation and danger of life in Nazioccupied Paris. Going beyond recent bestsellers that chronicle the imagined lives of famous wives in history—including Z, The Paris Wife, and Loving Frank—Mademoiselle Chanel is about a woman of genius who creates her own legacy . . . and revels in her own liaisons.

For readers of The Paris Wife and Z comes a vivid novel full of drama, passion, tragedy, and beauty that stunningly imagines the life of iconic fashion designer Coco Chanel—the ambitious, gifted laundrywoman’s daughter who revolutionized fashion, built an international empire, and become one of the ... Born into rural poverty, Gabrielle Chanel and her siblings are sent to orphanage after their mother’s death. The sisters nurture Gabrielle’s exceptional sewing skills, a talent that will propel the willful young woman into a life far removed from the drudgery of her childhood. Transforming herself into Coco—a seamstress and sometime torch singer—the petite brunette burns with ambition, an incandescence that draws a wealthy gentleman who will become the love of her life. She immerses herself in his world of money and luxury, discovering a freedom that sparks her creativity. But it is only when her lover takes her to Paris that Coco discovers her destiny. Rejecting the frilly, corseted silhouette of the past, her sleek, minimalist styles reflect the youthful ease and confidence of the 1920s modern woman. As Coco’s reputation spreads, her couturier business explodes, taking her into rarefied society circles and bohemian salons. But her fame and fortune cannot save her from heartbreak as th...

In January 2006, Paul Rosolie, a restless eighteenyearold hungry for adventure, embarked on a journey to the western Amazon that would transform his life. Venturing alone into the most inaccessible reaches of the jungle, he encountered massive snakes, isolated tribes, prowling jaguars, giant anteaters, poachers trafficking in the black market of endangered species, and much more. He even discovered a new kind of ecosystem now known as a “floating forest.” Yet today the primordial depths of the Madre de Dios are in grave danger.

Pagans The End of Traditional Religion and the Rise of Christianity James J. O'Donnell Key Selling Points:
l
Pagans is an iconoclastic and sometimes shocking book written for people looking to understand religion and western religious history beyond the familiar stories of Christian triumph. James O’Donnell is uniquely suited to present this alternative history: for thirty years, he has been an expert in the field of Paganism—or, as he calls it, “traditional religion”—and the transition to Christianity, and synthesizes his work with verve and wit. Summary
Religious scholar and critically acclaimed author of Augustine James J. O’Donnell has written a provocative and contrarian religious history that charts the rise of Christianity from the point of view of traditional” religion Ecco 9780061845352 On Sale Date: 3/17/15 $34.99 Can.

These “pagans” were actually pious Greeks, Romans, Syrians, and Gauls who observed the traditions of their ancestors. To these devout polytheists, Christians who worshipped only one deity were immoral atheists who believed that a splash of water on the deathbed could erase a lifetime of sin. Religious scholar James J. O’Donnell takes us on a lively tour of the Ancient Roman world through the fourth century CE, when Romans of every nationality, social class, and religious preference found their world suddenly constrained by rulers who preferred a strange new god. Some joined this new cult, while others denied its power, erroneously believing it was little more than a passing fad. In Pagans, O’Donnell brings to life various pagan rites and essential features of Roman religion and life, offers fresh po... Author Bio

A father’s beautifully rendered memoir and humorous love letter to his extraordinary daughter Jillian, born with Down syndrome, that also shows us all how to live better Jillian Daugherty was born with Down syndrome. The day they brought her home from the hospital, her parents Paul and Kerry were flooded with worry, uncertainty, and overwhelming love—a devotion they channeled to “the job of building the better Jillian.” While their daughter had special needs, they refused to allow her to grow up needy—
“Expect, Don't Accept,” became their mantra. They had little idea that Jillian was more than ready to meet her parents’ challenge. Moving from Jillian’s birth through her mischievous childhood and to her early adulthood, Paul traces her journey to find happiness and purpose in her adult life, sharing endearing anecdotes as well as stories about her inspiring triumphs.

In recent years a highly publicized coterie of scientists and thinkers, including Richard Dawkins, the late Christopher Hitchens, and Lawrence Krauss, have vehemently contended that breakthroughs in modern science have disproven the existence of God, asserting we must accept that the creation of the universe came out of nothing, that religion is evil, that evolution fully explains the dazzling complexity of life, and more.

In the late nineteenthcentury Boston, home to Herman Melville and Oliver Wendell Holmes, a serial killer preying on children is on the loose in the city—a wilderness of ruin caused by the Great Fire—in this literary historical crime thriller reminiscent of The Devil in the White City In the early 1870s, local children begin disappearing from the working class neighborhoods of Boston. Several return home bloody and bruised after being tortured, while others never came back. With the city on edge, authorities believe the abductions are the handiwork of a psychopath, until they discover that their killer—fourteenyearold Jesse Pomeroy—is barely older than his victims. The criminal investigation that follows sparks a debate among the world’s most revered medical minds, and will have a longlasting impact on the judicial system and medical consciousness for decades. The Wilderness of Ruin is a riveting tale of gruesome murder and depravity. At its heart is a great American city divided by class—a chasm that widens in the aftermath of the Great Fire of 1872. Roseanne Montillo brings Gilded Age Boston to glorious life—from the genteel cobblestone streets of Beacon Hill to the squalid, overcrowded tenements of Southie.

The New York Times bestselling manifesto of the new libertarianism movement, by the president of FreedomWorks “For those eager to understand the clearthinking that informs libertarian philosophy.... [An] excellent book.” —Forbes Don’t hurt people, and don’t take their stuff. Simple and straightforward, that’s liberty in a nutshell—no assembly required. And yet it seems like, more and more, the decisions Washington makes about what to do for us, or to us, or even against us, are having an increasingly adverse impact on our lives. Young people can’t find jobs, millions of Americans are losing the health care plans they were promised they could keep, and every one of us is somehow being targeted, monitored, snooped on, conscripted, induced, taxed, subsidized, regulated, or otherwise manipulated by someone else’s agenda. Our government is out of control. But setting things right again requires that you step up and take your freedom back. From Matt Kibbe, the influential leader of FreedomWorks, Don’t Hurt People and Don’t Take Their Stuff is the first true manifesto of a new libertarian grassroots movement.

Summary
From the bestselling author of Hero Found comes the incredible true story of one of the greatest military rescues of all time, the 1945 World War II prison camp raid at Los Baños in the Philippines—a tale of daring, courage, and heroism that joins the ranks of Ghost Soldiers, Unbroken, and The Boys ...

We have grown used to the battles over Jesus—whether he was human or divine, whether he could do miracles or just inspire them, whether he even existed. Much of the church defends tradition, while critics take shots at the institution and its beliefs. But what if these debates have masked the real story of Jesus? What if even Jesus’s defenders have been so blinded by their focus on defending the church’s traditions that they have failed to grapple with what the New Testament really teaches? Bible scholar, Anglican bishop, and bestselling author N. T. Wright summarizes a lifetime of study of Jesus and the New Testament in order to present for a general audience who Jesus was and is. In Simply Jesus, we are invited to hear one of our leading scholars introduce the story of the carpenter’s son from Nazareth as if we were hearing it for the first time. “Jesus—the Jesus we might discover if we really looked,” explains Wright, “is larger, more disturbing, more urgent than we had ever imagined...

Summary
Candid and unforgettable, a daughter’s story of family, devotion, and growing up with the greatest hitter who ever lived—a love letter to her greatest hero, her father Ted Williams "This memoir truly stands out, simply because it offers insights no other author could.”—
Boston Globe While the world knew him as Ted Williams, The Kid, and Teddy Ballgame; at age ten, his daughter, Claudia, only knew him as Dad. Their life together had little to do with Triple Crowns and batting titles. Their world consisted of casting fishing lines in New Brunswick, crosscountry road trips, and squabbling at “feeding time.” Now, in this tender and surprising memoir, Ted Williams’s last surviving child recounts her time with one of baseball’s brightest stars, offering a rare glimpse inside the Hall of Famer’s life after he hung up his spikes. With a fresh insight, Claudia presents an unexpected portrait of Ted Williams and opens up for the first time about the rumors that her family faced during his final years, as well as his controversial choice to be cryogenically preserved after his death. Filled with personal stories of his strengths and weaknesses, accomplishments and regrets, Claudia’s poignant account tells the story of a complicated man and the family he loved. Author Bio

Many people believe they know the story of the aqueduct thanks to Roman Polanski’s Chinatown. As Standiford shows, the real history is even more extraordinary and dramatic. The project was one of the four great engineering feats of the Gilded Age, including the Panama Canal, the Oversea Railroad through the Florida Keys—chronicled in Standiford’s Last Train to Paradise—and the New York City Catskill Water Projects. Thanks to the recent drought—which scientists and experts believe will continue in severity—California is suffering one of the most severe water crises in its history. Los Angeles still receives 43% of its water via the aqueduct that Mulholland built, and its survival depends on water from droughtstricken agricultural regions. The book’s publication coincides with the 2015 Los Angeles Times Festival of Books where it is sure to garner attention. Summary

Drawing on new research, Les Standiford vividly captures the largerthenlife engineer and the breathtaking scope of his sixyear, $23 million project that that would transform a region, a state, and a nation at the dawn of its greatest century. With energy and colorful detail, Water to the Angels brings to life the personalities, politics, and power—including bribery, deception, force, and bicoastal financial warfare—
behind this dramatic event. At a time when the importance of water is being recognized as never before—considered by many experts to be the essential resource of the twentyfirst century—Water to the Angels brings into focus the vigor of a fabled era, the might of a larger t... Author Bio

How do I forgive? Nobel laureate Archbishop Desmond Tutu has witnessed some of the worst crimes people can inflict on others. So wherever he goes, he inevitably gets asked this question. This book is his answer. Writing with his daughter, Mpho, an Anglican priest, they lay out the simple but profound truths about the significance of forgiveness, how it works, why everyone needs to know how to grant it and receive it, and why granting forgiveness is the greatest gift we can give to ourselves when we have been wronged. They explain the fourstep process of forgiveness—Telling the Story, Naming the Hurt, Granting Forgiveness, and Renewing or Releasing the Relationship—as well as offer meditations, exercises, and prayers to guide the reader along the way. “With each act of forgiveness, whether small or great, we move toward wholeness,” they write. "Forgiveness is how we bring peace to ourselves and our world." Author Bio

The author has been exclusively shadowing Christopher Murray, the CEO of IHME, and all of its constituents to tell this fascinating account of a paradigmshifting leader who butts heads with politicians, advocacy groups, and the WHO and the UN and is committed to changing our view of heath. As Michael Lewis did with Moneyball and its relevance to business, Jeremy Smith's unfolding of Murray’s story sheds light and makes relevant the enormous world of measuring good health and bad. The Institute of Health Metrics has offered their support in sharing their findings and research in a format that is accessible to the book and an insightful color insert. We have an opportunity to take advantage of this new technology offered by our inhouse creative digital team to allow readers to interact with the intricate graphs and statistics provided by the IHME. The U.S. ranks #37 in global health. Epic Measures explains why the ranking is so low. Summary
Moneyball meets medicine in this remarkable chronicle of one of the greatest scientific quests of our time—the groundbreaking program to answer the most essential question for humanity: how do we live and die?—and the visionary mastermind behind it Medical doctor and economist Christopher Murray began the Global Burden of Disease studies to gain a truer understanding of how we live and how we die. While it is one of the largest scientific projects ever attempted—as breathtaking as the first moon landing or the Human Genome Project—the questions it answers are meaningful for every one of us: What are the world’s health problems? Who do they hurt? How much? Where? Why? Murray argues that the ideal existence isn’t simply the longest but the one lived well and with the least illness. Until we can accurately measure how people live and die, we cannot understand what makes us sick or do much to improve it. Challenging the accepted wisdom of the WHO and the UN, the charismatic and controversial health maverick has made enemies—and some influential friends, including Bill Gates who gave Murray a $100 million grant. In Epic Measures, journalist Jeremy N. Smith offers an intimate look at Murray and his groundbreaking work. From ranking count... Author Bio

In a book that took eight years to research and write, leading Bible scholar Bart D. Ehrman explores how an apocalyptic prophet from the backwaters of rural Galilee crucified for crimes against the state came to be thought of as equal with the one God Almighty Creator of all things. Ehrman sketches Jesus’s transformation from a human prophet to the Son of God exalted to divine status at his resurrection. Only when some of Jesus’s followers had visions of him after his death—alive again—did anyone come to think that he, the prophet from Galilee, had become God. And what they meant by that was not at all what people mean today. As a historian—not a believer—Ehrman answers the questions: How did this transformation of Jesus occur? How did he move from being a Jewish prophet to being God? The dramatic shifts throughout history reveal not only why Jesus’s followers began to claim he was God, but also how they came to understand this claim in so many different ways.

The patriarch of the Licht family, Abraham has raised a brood of talented con artists, children molded in his image, and experts in The Game, his calling and philosophy of life. Traveling from one small town to the next across the continent, from the Northeast to the frontier West, they skillfully swindle unsuspecting victims, playing on their greed, lust, pride, and smallmindedness. Despite their success, Abraham cannot banish a past that haunts him: the ghost of his ancestor Sarah Licht, a former con woman who met with a gruesome fate. As Abraham moves his family from town to town, involving them in more and more complex and impressive schemes, he finds himself caught between the specter of Sarah and the growing terrors of his present. As his carefully crafted lies and schemes begin to fracture and disintegrate before his eyes, Abraham discovers that the bond of family is as tenuous and treacherous as the tricks he perpetrates upon unsuspecting strangers.

The Bible is the heart of devotional practice, a source of guidance and inspiration rich with insightful life lessons. On the other side of the spectrum, academics have studied the Bible using scientific analysis to examine its historical significance and meaning. The gap between these readings has resulted in a schism with farreaching implications: Without historical context, ordinary people are left to interpret the Bible literally, while academic readings overlook the deeply personal connections established in church pews, choir benches, and backyard study groups.

With decades of experience teaching management and working with major high
tech industry figures, Yoffie and Cusumano are the ideal team to bring their unique management strategies to a wide audience. While there is constant interest in books about Silicon Valley, American technology companies, and the titans who created these firms, this book looks at the strategies of the three biggest names as a group for the first time. Professor David B. Yoffie has written 40 Harvard Business School cases on Intel, Microsoft, and Apple, which are the most widely used cases on these companies. Michael A. Cusumano’s previous book, Staying Power: Six Enduring Principles for Managing Strategy & Innovation in an Uncertain World, was named one of the top business books of 2011 by Strategy + Business magazine. Cusumano and Yoffie’s prior book together, Competing on Internet Time: Lessons from Netscape and Its Battle with Microsoft, was named a top 10 business book of 1998 by Business Week. Summary

In less than a decade, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Andy Grove founded three companies that would define the world of technology and transform our lives. At their peaks, Microsoft, Apple, and Intel were collectively worth some $1.5 trillion. Strategy Rules examines these three individuals collectively for the first time—their successes and failures, commonalities and differences—revealing the business strategies and practices they pioneered while building their firms. David B. Yoffie and Michael A. Cusumano have studied these three leaders and their companies for more than thirty years, while teaching business strategy, innovation and entrepreneurship at Harvard and MIT. In this enlightening guide, they show how Gates, Grove, and Jobs approached strategy and execution in remarkably similar ways—yet markedly differently from their erstwhile competitors—keeping their focus on five strategic rules.

Former prosecutor Penn Cage and his fiancée, reporter and publisher Caitlin Masters, have barely escaped with their lives after being attacked by wealthy businessman Brody Royal and his Double Eagles, a KKK sect with ties to some of Mississippi’s most powerful men. But the real danger has only begun as FBI Special Agent John Kaiser warns Penn that Brody wasn’t the true leader of the Double Eagles. The puppeteer who actually controls the terrorist group is a man far more fearsome: the chief of the state police’s Criminal Investigations Bureau, Forrest Knox. The only way Penn can save his father, Dr. Tom Cage—who is fleeing a murder charge as well as corrupt cops bent on killing him is either to make a devil’s bargain with Knox or destroy him. While Penn desperately pursues both options, Caitlin uncovers the real story behind a series of unsolved civil rights murders that may hold the key to the Double Eagles’ downfall.

As Dane Huckelbridge’s masterfully crafted history reveals, the iconic amber spirit is the American experience, distilled, aged, and sealed in a bottle. Bourbon’s essential ingredient, corn, is indigenous to the Americas and had been fermented by its native peoples for centuries. After winning the American Revolution, George Washington turned his attention to establishing one of the new nation’s largest distilling operations at his estate, Mount Vernon. Kentuckyborn Abe Lincoln received a liquor license in 1833 before turning his attention to politics. Then, in cowboy saloons and gambling halls of the latenineteenth century, bourbon put the wild in Wild West. During the early twentieth century, Prohibition famously sought to curtail America’s drinking but instead expanded alcohol’s reach as speakeasies run by gangsters and bootleggers welcomed women and made drinking more fashionable than e...

Like its predecessor, The Invention of Fire is intricately plotted and vividly descriptive, a big, ambitious, fastpaced read that brings medieval England to life.

Though he is one of England’s most acclaimed intellectuals, John Gower is no stranger to London’s wretched slums and dark corners, and he knows how to trade on the secrets of the kingdom’s most powerful men. When the bodies of sixteen unknown men are found in a privy, the Sheriff of London seeks Gower’s help. The men’s wounds—ragged holes created by an unknown object—are unlike anything the sheriff’s men have ever seen. Tossed into the sewer, the bodies were meant to be found. Gower believes the men may have been used in an experiment—a test for a fearsome new war weapon his informants call the “handgonne,” claiming it will be the “future of death” if its design can be perfected. Propelled by questions of his own, Gower turns to courtier and civil servant Geoffrey Chaucer, who is working on some poems about pilgrims that Gower finds rather vulgar. Chaucher thinks he just may know who commissioned this new weapon, an extremely valuable piece of information that some will pay a high price... Author Bio

A profound expansion of David McCullough, Jr.’s popular commencement speech—a call to arms against a prevailing, narrow, conception of success viewed by millions on YouTube—You Are (Not) Special is a love letter to students and parents as well as a guide to a truly fulfilling, happy life Children today, says David McCullough—high school English teacher, father of four, and son and namesake of the famous historiana—are being encouraged to sacrifice passionate engagement with life for specious notions of success. The intense pressure to excel discourages kids from taking chances, failing, and learning empathy and self
confidence from those failures. In You Are (Not) Special, McCullough elaborates on his nowfamous speech exploring how, for what purpose, and for whose sake, we’re raising our kids. With wry, affectionate humor, McCullough takes on hovering parents, ineffectual schools, professional college prep, electronic distractions, club sports, and generally the manifestations, and the applications and consequences of privilege. By acknowledging that the world is indifferent to them, McCullough takes pressure off of students to be extraordinary achievers and instead exhorts them to roll up their sleeves and do something useful with their advantages.

Yet successful women are constantly being told that their professional achievements might doom their chances of marriage and family. A clinical psychologist with more than thirty years’ experience, Dr. Rhodes shares her secrets to helping women triumph in love by finding men who will appreciate and complement their strengths. Challenging gender stereotypes associated with the terms Alpha and Beta, she advises the Alpha woman to look past the overly competitive, domineering Alpha male for a man who is not threatened by her strengths but is communicative, responsible, and collaborative. Just as Alpha women aren’t demanding bitches, Beta men aren’t passive wimps. Demonstrating that nearly everyone is a combination of both qualities, Dr. Rhodes includes a comprehensive test to help readers define where they (and their partners) are on the AlphaBeta spectrum. This tool will give women more options and ... Author Bio

The sophisticated and crotchety Roman despises mountains, snow, and the provincial locals as much as he disdains his superiors and their petty rules. But he loves solving crimes. When a mangled body has been discovered on a piste above Champoluc, Rocco immediately faces his first challenge—identifying the victim, a complex procedure complicated by his ignorance of the customs, dialect, and history of his new home. Proud and undaunted, Rocco makes his way among the ski runs, mountain huts, and aerial tramways, meeting ski instructors, Alpine guides, the hardworking, enigmatic folk of Aosta, and a few beautiful locals eager to give him a warm welcome. It won’t be easy, this mountain life, especially with a corpse or two in the mix. But then there’s nothing that makes Rocco feel more at home than an investigation. An insig... Author Bio

Buckley, Arthur Brooks is a dynamic and compelling figure who has assumed a key role at the intersection of ideas and politics in Washington. In his published work, Brooks has long considered the role of government, fairness, economic opportunity, happiness, and the morality of free enterprise; this book is the culmination of years of research and writing on the sources and conditions of happiness. Many intellectual conservatives recognize that the movement has stalled, fueled by fortyyearold ideas that go back to Ronald Reagan. The Conservative Heart breaks new ground by charting a new course for conservative politics. Brooks’s core ideas have been honed through his writing, speeches, and in debate training with elected officials at local, state, and national levels. AEI will use the book as the focus of a threeyear campaign to promote its ideas on a national level, including a free online curriculum for policymakers. For too long, conservatives have been characterized as heartless and uncaring in contrast to liberals. Brooks shrewdly challenges the liberal monopoly on “caring,” offering ideas that challenge liberal solutions while incorporating its compassionate idealism. Summary
The prominent economist and president of the American Enterprise Institute—the leading intellectual think tank on the right—offers a bold new vision for conservatism as a movement for social and economic justice In The Conservative Heart, Arthur C. Brooks contends that after years of focusing on economic growth, job creation, and traditional social values, it is time for a new kind of conservatism—one that helps the vulnerable without mortgaging our children’s future. In Brook’s daring vision, this conservative movement fights poverty, promotes equal opportunity, celebrates earned success, and values spiritual enlightenment. It is an inclusive movement with a positive agenda to help people lead happier, more hopeful, and more satisfied lives. One of the country’s leading scholars and policy thinkers, Brooks has considered these issues for decades. Drawing on years of research on the sources of happiness, he asserts that what people most need are four “institutions of meaning”—faith, family, community, and meaningful work. These are not only the foundations of personal wellbeing, but also the necessary means for building a better nation. Combining reporting, original research, and case studies,... Author Bio
