It is ordered on demand from our supplier and is usually dispatched within 7 - 15 working days The youngest of nine children, Michael Downing was three when his father died, suddenly and inexplicably. No autopsy was performed. The family diagnosis was God's will. As a boy, Downing rigorously trained as a spiritual athlete, preparing to vault into heaven. But eventually he escaped the religious dogma and the family arena--until one of his brothers died in 2003, suddenly and inexplicably. No autopsy was performed. Alarmed, Downing pursued a diagnosis. Drawn into a world of researchers, clinicians, and manufacturers with their own arcane ethics and faith, Downing discovered he had inherited a mutant protein from his father, and that the first symptom would be his sudden death. To save his life, a defibrillator was hardwired to his heart. Within weeks, he needed emergency surgery to remove the device and the life-threatening infection he got with it. Two months later, he was reimplanted--only to read in his morning newspaper that the new wires anchored to his heart were prone to failure. His device might be powerless, or it might deliver a series of unwarranted, possibly fatal, shocks. From a bedeviled boyhood in the Berkshires to a grim comedy of errors in one of Boston's best hospitals, Life with Sudden Death is a tale of medical misadventure.

This item is sold brand new. It is ordered on demand from our supplier and is usually dispatched within 7 - 11 working days What's happening in the world lately? How can I be happy when so many are not? Is life about learning lessons or passing tests? Following your heart or taking what's served to you? What's real? What matters? Who says? Who cares? How do we know or find our purpose? Many of us ask ourselves these questions, and many more, as we go through our days and try to make sense of our lives. Mike Dooley asks them too, except...his questions get answered. Wisely. Compassionately. Fully. One such answer explained its source, stating that we all have a higher self within that predates this life and will live beyond it, and thus it knows a whole lot more than we do at "street level" about where we've been, why we're here, and what will likely happen next on planet Earth. Life on Earth takes the form of a journal in which Mike asks what's on his mind during pivotal times in his life. As one of today's most respected New Thought leaders and reality theorists, he offers a lofty platform for this wide-ranging dialogue that powerfully expands our perspectives on essential truths, taking on topics such as: - Why and how to see through the "illusions" of life on earth - How to make sense of natural disasters and manmade tragedies - Living deliberately, creating consciously, and finding your power - Wealth, relationships, "past lives," and the evolution of consciousness - The ultimate reason for life on earth, and elsewhere (it's shockingly simple) These are questions asked from the heart with a cautious, even suspicious, mind. Mike explores the subtleties of the replies in depth and detail using his trademark wit and realism, in this intrepid explorer's guide to the jungles of time and space.

In Daniel Vilmure's powerful first novel,two brothers take off on a rampage through a seedy Florida port town on a hot August night. The older one is illiterate; one moment he is hypertense, ready to snap, the next, he is James Dean cool.  His kid brother - the one with the sense - goes along to save him but in the end is no match for such hell-bent momentum. "A gratifying first novel.  The talent of the author, who was born in Tampa in 1965, shines in the book's compelling imagery, irony and framing device.  His vivid, terse language aptly embodies the hard-driving, violent drama and makes us feel we are running through the night with these brothers driven by a painful loss of innocence, and fate"  New York Times Book Review. Soft cover, fairly good condition, although the cover is bent in places.  225 pages, all intact.

  "Most Americans are not free. They are chained to their paychecks.. .. The women profiled herein will not tolerate such an existence. They are a different breed. They are free. They are cultivators of wealth and satisfied with life. They are in control of their own destiny."Eight years ago, Dr. Thomas J. Stanley swept aside the  mythical magic curtain of wealth to reveal The Millionaire Next  Door. America found out just who and how common the truly wealthy were in this country-and we learned the characteristics and habits that made them so. Now the author of the follow-up The Millionaire Mind focuses on one of the least understood but  increasingly rich demographics: Millionaire Women Next Door, available in paperback for the first time. "Why write another book that profiles millionaires?" Stanley asks. "The vast majority of the millionaire respondents (92 percent) in The Millionaire Next Door were men.... I felt that it was indeed time for successful businesswomen of the self-made variety to  be heard." Readers everywhere will be fascinated by Stanley's thoroughly researched findings and conclusions. They'll come away considerably more knowledgeable and greatly inspired by women who have found the key to riches.  Millionaire Women Next Door explores the meaning of wealth and  the avenues that female entrepreneurs and business people have  traveled. The book examines their choices, natures, working styles, and lifestyles.   PAGES: 356 GENRE: BUSINESS SOFTCOVER   SECOND HAND IN VERY GOOD CONDITION

Later, as a young lawyer, he worked to halt land seizures and towards peace and justice in the region. During this time, he made close friends with several young Jewish Israelis, including fellow thinker and searcher Henry. But as life became increasingly unbearable under in the Palestinian territories, it was impossible to escape politics or the past, and even the strongest friendships and hopes were put to the test.

This item is sold brand new. It is ordered on demand from our supplier and is usually dispatched within 20 - 25 working days Equal parts hilarious and heartbreaking, this unrequited love story will appeal to fans of Jennifer Niven, John Green, and Jesse Andrews. Seriously, how can you see a person nearly every day of your life and never think a thing of it, then all of a sudden, one day, it's different? You see that goofy grin a thousand times and just laugh. But goofy grin #1,001 nearly stops your heart? Right. That sounds like a bad movie already. Matt Wainwright is constantly sabotaged by the overdramatic movie director in his head. He can't tell his best friend, Tabby, how he really feels about her, he implodes on the JV basketball team, and the only place he feels normal is in Mr. Ellis's English class, discussing the greatest fart scenes in literature and writing poems about pissed-off candy-cane lumberjacks. If this were a movie, everything would work out perfectly. Tabby would discover that Matt's madly in love with her, be overcome with emotion, and would fall into his arms. Maybe in the rain. But that's not how it works. Matt watches Tabby get swept away by senior basketball star and all-around great guy Liam Branson. Losing Tabby to Branson is bad enough, but screwing up and losing her as a friend is even worse. After a tragic accident, Matt finds himself left on the sidelines, on the verge of spiraling out of control and losing everything that matters to him. From debut author Jared Reck comes a fiercely funny and heart-wrenching novel about love, longing, and what happens when life as you know it changes in an instant.
