Paperback. Condition: Very Good. New York Times Bestseller A startlingly original debut from the actor, writer, director, and executive producer hailed as "a gifted observer of the human condition and a very funny writer capable of winning that rare thing: unselfconscious, insuppressible laughter" (The Washington Post). A boy wins a $100,000 prize in a box of Frosted Flakes--only to discover that claiming the winnings might unravel his family. A woman sets out to seduce motivational speaker Tony Robbins--turning for help to the famed motivator himself. A new arrival in Heaven, overwhelmed with options, procrastinates over a long-ago promise to visit his grandmother. We meet Sophia, the first artificially intelligent being capable of love, who falls for a man who might not be ready for it himself; a vengeance-minded hare, obsessed with scoring a rematch against the tortoise who ruined his life; and post-college friends who try to figure out how to host an intervention in the era of Facebook.  Along the way, we learn why wearing a red T-shirt every day is the key to finding love, how February got its name, and why the stock market is sometimes just . . . down. Finding inspiration in questions from the nature of perfection to the icing on carrot cake, One More Thing has at its heart the most human of phenomena: love, fear, hope, ambition, and the inner stirring for the one elusive element just that might make a person complete. Across a dazzling range of subjects, themes, tones, and narrative voices, the many pieces in this collection are like nothing else, but they have one thing in common: they share the playful humor, deep heart, sharp eye, inquisitive mind, and altogether electrifying spirit of a writer with a fierce devotion to the entertainment of the reader.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. The book reviews recent theoretical and pedagogical innovations in foreign language teaching and learning in Chinese higher education. Facing new requirements of foreign language education, Chinese researchers and practitioners have responded by developing innovative teaching and learning approaches suitable for the local context. Firstly, Xu-argument and Production-Oriented Approach are theories proposed to address the weaknesses of low teaching efficiency and meet the needs for better learning effect. The former is a new approach to second language acquisition, contending that language is acquired through continuation, and the latter is a pedagogical theory that holds that learning starts with and ends with production. As an innovative teaching approach, Content and Language Integration (CLI) expands the curriculum to incorporate systematic disciplinary knowledge into foreign language teaching in the Chinese context. In modern media technology, multimodal pedagogy has been adopted to cultivate multiliteracies in language learners as new requirements for talents. In addition, Chinese scholars have argued for the comprehensive integration of technologies and have engaged in theoretical construction and pedagogical practice of technology-enhanced language teaching. Finally, projected-based language learning has been localized to foster innovation and creativity in English learners. Tom Novak (illustrator).…
