Paperback. Condition: Good. "A serious young man, / I had trouble saying yes / to the bright, clear days," Soren Stockman's Elephant begins. The poems that follow move through despair, self-destruction, and disassociation to arrive, finally, at that elusive affirmation. Accompanied throughout by the imagined presence of Joseph Merrick, the 20th Century entertainer and medical patient popularly depicted as "The Elephant Man," Stockman's speaker interrogates how storytellers have co-opted Merrick's identity and obscured his voice and inner life. In this projected communion, Stockman tries to encounter the man who was rather than the role molded from his experiences. What does it mean to perform as another? What allows us to love ourselves, and what makes it hard? This debut collection is a path out of loneliness, beyond private absences, to the true self and what it harbors in its heart. Here, at the center of things, we succumb to the succor of existence, given to the light: "What a blessing to love the world / and then finally be born." &nbsp.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Dr. David Soren examines Art, Popular Culture and the Classical Ideal in the 1930s in this beautifully illustrated book. The book takes an in-depth look at Roman Scandals and Christopher Strong and, as an added bonus Dr. Soren received permission to publish the unfinished autobiography of pioneering female filmmaker Dorothy Arzner. The 1930s were a time of contrasts. At a time when Americans had less money than at any time in their history, most movies revealed the obsession of the American people with elegance, wealth and beautiful people, so that an alien from Mars seeing most of these films would imagine that the society that had made them was entirely wealthy and not in the depths of the Depression. The 1930s was also an era of innovation in technology and design, when form began to follow function and everything streamlined, curvy and blonde was in. Anyone unfamiliar with the 1930s can nonetheless instantly Recognize that the hairstyles, costumes and sets have a particular look to them. The 1930s were tragic, elegant, fascinating and fun. Enjoy discovering them a posteriori through the magic of the movies and the crutch of this book.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. This title offers user-friendly guidance for the millions of people attempting to strike the right balance with computers, mobile phones, blackberrys and ipods. Having traded face-to-face contact for the rush of online communication, technology speaks to, but never quite fulfills, a profound need for connection-in ways that are addictive, but not ultimately satisfying. Worse, utilising such technologies becomes a compulsive action, rather than a creative process-and the resultant stress is likely to impede the very multi-tasking and efficiency that the technology was meant to inspire. Gordhamer brings the wisdom of Eastern meditative practice to calm the frantic anxiety produced by our Western high-speed technoculture.…

Paperback. Condition: Fair. Vera-Ellen should have been one of Broadway and Hollywood's most enduring stars. She was a fine dramatic and light comedic actress, and was considered by a number of authorities to be the greatest all-around dancer of her generation. And for a brief moment in 1950, she was an American household name, as famous as Babe Ruth, Joe DiMaggio or General Douglas MacArthur. She could do tap, toe dancing, adagio, modern dance (formerly known as dramatic dancing), comic dancing, partnered dancing, prop dancing, Apache dancing and advanced acrobatics. She could also sing well enough to be featured on Broadway and television. Her obsessive perfectionism was legendary; nobody worked harder on a routine or accomplished it with greater attention to detail. Not only were each of her steps perfect but the transitions from step to step were flawless and remarkably beautiful to observe. Like Fred Astaire, who admired her, she had the ability to make each complex routine seem effortless, as if she were expressing herself spontaneously. Vera-Ellen's work in films such as On The Town, White Christmas, Words and Music, Three Little Words, The Belle of New York and Call Me Madame will never be forgotten by film musical fans. This much anticipated biography will not disappoint those fans.…

Hardback. Condition: Good. "Leapfrogging is as much about the secrets of breakthrough leadership as it is about business innovation. loaded with fresh ideas and examples." -Hans Middag, Director, Learning and Development, Randstad In his trailblazing debut, Soren Kaplan gives business leaders the tools to do exactly what they're taught to avoid: embrace surprise-the new key to business breakthroughs. Instead of fighting against uncertainty, Kaplan reveals how to use it to break down limiting mindsets and barriers to change the game. By highlighting specific ways to transform both good and bad surprises into unique opportunities, Kaplan encourages leaders to compete by embracing counterintuitive ideas, managing paradoxes, and even welcoming failure. This is the key to "leapfrogging" -creating or doing something radically new or different that produces a significant leap forward. Leapfrogging connects new research, unconventional strategies, and practical tools for navigating the "messy" and elusive process of achieving business breakthroughs. Filled with real-world examples from innovators such as Gatorade, Intuit, Philips, Kimberly-Clark, Colgate-Palmolive, OpenTable, and Etsy, Kaplan shows that any organization or business function can leapfrog. Using his LEAPS process (Listen, Explore, Act, Persist, and Seize), leaders learn to seek out, recognize, and respond to surprising experiences and events as a way to create solutions that leap beyond the current expectations of customers, partners, employees, the market, and the competition. Kaplan's Leapfrogging is the new handbook for the modern leader. "Superbly crafted, powerful in its simplicity, offering smart, actionable learning. Finally, a simple, holistic model that allows for breakthrough thinking and living." -Mary Beth Robles, Vice President, Colgate-Palmolive "His campaigning for fearless innovation and flexibility is compelling." -Publishers Weekly.…
