    There is September 11 and then there are the days after, and finally the years.  Falling Man  is a magnificent, essential novel about the event that defines turn-of-the-century America. It begins in the smoke and ash of the burning towers and tracks the aftermath of this global tremor in the intimate lives of a few people.  First there is Keith, walking out of the rubble into a life that he’d always imagined belonged to everyone but him. Then Lianne, his estranged wife, memory-haunted, trying to reconcile two versions of the same shadowy man. And their small son Justin, standing at the window, scanning the sky for more planes.  These are lives choreographed by loss, grief, and the enormous force of history.  Brave and brilliant,  Falling Man  traces the way the events of September 11 have reconfigured our emotional landscape, our memory and our perception of the world. It is cathartic, beautiful, heartbreaking.

This is a story of the difficulties which an Italian prisoner of war and later immigrant family to South Africa had to endure, and the toll it took on the family, and on the author as the daughter of the family in particular. It is especially the story of her battle to overcome the trauma of her childhood and youth, and the Sicilian family culture of that time. She has learned to value her heritage, and to forgive both herself and those close to her, and finally to accept and love herself as a complete and beautiful person. Her story is one of trauma, depression, awareness, acceptance, forgiveness, and ultimately, of compassion and love. About the Author Savina Plescia Redpath was born in Palermo, Sicily in 1948. She emigrated to South Africa, at the age of 13 months, with her mother and eldest brother, to join her father who had returned to South Africa in 1947 after having been imprisoned there at Zonderwater Prisoner-of-War Camp during the 2nd World War.    Author(s): Savina Plescia Redpath  Title:      Falling in Love with Myself  ISBN: 978 1 920535 95 7  Publisher/place:  Kima Books/Power of Words, Johannesburg  This Edition: first   Year of Publication:  2016  Binding: paperback Number of pages:  188  Weight:  210g  Condition:   This item is sold brand new, is in stock at our store and available for immediate dispatch.  - This is an autographed copy, limited number available.

She sets off on a journey of discovery, with new friends Ben and Sabeen by her side. But just as she gets closer to answering big questions about who she is, what America means, and how communities can grow (and heal), she uncovers new questions, too. Like, why does Pop get so angry when she brings up anything about the towers? As the fifteenth anniversary of September 11th nears, Towers Falling explores the thought-provoking question of how kids born after 2001 can find meaning in events they have no personal memory of, but which still have a monumental impact on their families, educators, and communities. In the tradition of her revered body of middle grade work including Ninth Ward, Sugar, and Bayou Magic, once again Jewell deftly weaves historical and socio-political layers into a story that is at its heart about friendship, family, and finding your way in a complicated world. Features Summary From award-winning author Jewell Parker Rhodes, a powerful novel set fifteen years after September 11th, 2001, following three dynamic students who know the events only as history -- but slowly discover how much the attacks still color their community.

Award-winning entrepreneur and journalist Shane Snow takes us on an extraordinary tour of the hidden science of team dynamics, revealing the counterintuitive reasons that some groups break out while far too many break down. Examining history-making groups like the Wu Tang Clan and the Russian national hockey side alongside teams whose failures have had lasting impact, Snow reveals the answers, and what the rest of us can learn from the rare teams that do the impossible together. In this stimulating, pacey adventure through history, neuroscience, psychology, sports and business, Snow explores the secrets of the best teams the world has to offer. You'll discover: - How ragtag teams - from soccer clubs to startups to gangs of pirates - beat the odds throughout history - Why DaimlerChrysler flopped while the Wu-Tang Clan succeeded, and the surprising factor behind most failed mergers, marriages, and partnerships - What the Wright Brothers' daily arguments can teach us about group problem solving - The true stories of pioneering women in law enforcement, unlikely civil rights collaborators, and underdog armies that did the incredible together - The team players behind great social movements in history, and the science of becoming open-minded. Provocative and entertaining, Dream Teams is a landmark work that will change the way we think about progress and collaboration.

 In 1992 an Indian climber was left to die alone high on the South Col of Mount Everest by other climbers who watched his feebly waving hand from the security of their tent thirty yards away.  Why did these onlookers not hold the dying man's hand and comfort him?  The answer  appalls Joe Simpson, who was himself left for dead in a crevasse in Peru in 1985. "I shall never forget the horror of dying alone - the awful empty loneliness of it." Now that Everest has become the playground of the rich, where commercial operators offer guided tours to the top up fixed ropes, camping amidst the detritus and unburied corpses of previous less fortunate climbers, Simpson wonders if the noble, caring instincts that once characterised mountaineering have been irrevocably displaced - as in other facets of society.  In this exciting and challenging book, he explores anecdotally and in conversations with other mountaineers, the moral climate of mountaineering in the 1990s. Soft cover, fair condition.  The cover is creased and scuffed in places.  The book shows definite signs of wear, but it's a fascinating read.  207 pages.
