Paperback. Condition: Good. #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER â ¢ ONE OF ESSENCE'S 50 MOST IMPACTFUL BLACK BOO KS OF THE PAST 50 YEARS In this iconic memoir of his early days, Barack Obama "guides us straight t o the intersection of the most serious questions of identity, class, and ra ce" (The Washington Post Book World). "Quite extraordinary."--Toni Morrison In this lyrical, unsentimental, and compelling memoir, the son of a black A frican father and a white American mother searches for a workable meaning t o his life as a black American. It begins in New York, where Barack Obama l earns that his father--a figure he knows more as a myth than as a man--has been killed in a car accident. This sudden death inspires an emotional odys sey--first to a small town in Kansas, from which he retraces the migration of his mother's family to Hawaii, and then to Kenya, where he meets the Afr ican side of his family, confronts the bitter truth of his father's life, a nd at last reconciles his divided inheritance. Praise for Dreams from My Father "Beautifully crafted . . . moving and candid . . . This book belongs on the shelf beside works like James McBride's The Color of Water and Gregory How ard Williams's Life on the Color Line as a tale of living astride America's racial categories."--Scott Turow "Provocative . . . Persuasively describes the phenomenon of belonging to tw o different worlds, and thus belonging to neither."--The New York Times Boo k Review "Obama's writing is incisive yet forgiving. This is a book worth savoring." --Alex Kotlowitz, author of There Are No Children Here "One of the most powerful books of self-discovery I've ever read, all the more so for it.

Condition: Very Good. Unique insights from an atheist's Sunday-morning odyssey When Hemant Mehta was a teenager he stopped believing in God, but he never lost his interest in religion. Mehta is "the eBay atheist," the nonbeliever who auctioned off the opportunity for the winning bidder to send him to ch urch. The auction winner was Jim Henderson, a former pastor and author of E vangelism Without Additives. Since then, Mehta has visited a variety of chu rch services-posting his insightful critiques on the Internet and spawning a positive, ongoing dialogue between atheists and believers. I Sold My Soul on eBay tells how and why Mehta became an atheist and featur es his latest church critiques, including descriptions of his visits to som e of the best-known churches in the country. His observations will surprise and challenge you, revealing how the church comes across to those outside the faith. Who better than a nonbeliever to offer an eye-opening assessment of how the gospel is being presented-and the elements that enhance or detr act from the presentation. Mehta announced prior to his churchgoing odyssey that he would watch for any signs of God's existence. After spending Sunday mornings in some of the nation's leading churches, what happened to the man who sold his soul on eBay? Did attending church change his lack of belief? The answers can be found inside.

Paperback. Condition: Good. In a powerful and deeply personal memoir David Brock, the original right-wi ng scandal reporter, chronicles his rise to the pinnacle of the conservativ e movement and his painful break with it. David Brock pilloried Anita Hill in a bestseller. His reporting in The Amer ican Spectator as part of the infamous "Arkansas Project" triggered the cou rse of events that led to the historic impeachment trial of President Clint on. Brock was at the center of the right-wing dirty tricks operation of the Gingrich era--and a true believer--until he could no longer deny that the political force he was advancing was built on little more than lies, hate, and hypocrisy. In Blinded By the Right, Brock, who came out of the closet at the height of his conservative renown, tells his riveting story from the beginning, givi ng us the first insider's view of what Hillary Rodham Clinton called "the v ast right-wing conspiracy." Whether dealing with the right-wing press, the richly endowed think tanks, Republican political operatives, or the Paula J ones case, Brock names names from Clarence Thomas on down, uncovers hidden links, and demonstrates how the Republican Right's zeal for power created t he poisonous political climate that culminated in George W. Bush's election . With a new afterword by the author, Blinded By the Right is a classic political memoir of our times.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Written as a confessional letter to his son, an 18th century opera singer r ecounts how his gift for sound led him on an astonishing journey to Europe' s celebrated opera houses and reveals how he came to raise a son who by all rights he never could have sired. The celebrated opera singer Lo Svizzero was born in a belfry high in the Sw iss Alps where his mother served as the keeper of the loudest and most beau tiful bells in the land. Shaped by the bells' glorious music, he possessed an extraordinary gift for sound. But when his preternatural hearing was dis covered--along with its power to expose the sins of the church--young Moses Froben was cast out of his village with only his ears to guide him in a wo rld fraught with danger. Rescued from certain death by two traveling monks, he finds refuge at the vast and powerful Abbey of St. Gall. There, he becomes the protégé of the Abbey's brilliant yet repulsive choirmaster, Ulrich. But it is this gift that will cause Moses' greatest misfortune: determined to preserve his brilliant pupil's voice, Ulrich has Moses castrated. Now, he will forever sing with the exquisite voice of an angel--a musico--yet castration is an abomination in the Swiss Confederation, and so he must hide his shameful condition from his friends and even from the girl he has come to love. When his saviors are exiled and his beloved leaves St. Gall for an arranged marriage in Vienna, he decides he can deny the truth no longer and he follows her--to sumptuous Vienna, to.

Increasingly, the decisions that affec t our lives--where we go to school, whether we can get a job or a loan, how much we pay for health insurance--are being made not by humans, but by mac hines. In theory, this should lead to greater fairness: Everyone is judged according to the same rules. But as mathematician and data scientist Cathy O'Neil reveals, the mathematical models being used today are unregulated and uncontestable, even when they're wrong. Most troubling, they reinforce discrimination--propping up the lucky, punishing the downtrodden, and undermining our democracy in the process. Welcome to the dark side of Big Data.

Dogs fill our hearts with love and our minds with wonder, but their emotion al lives have remained unexplored since Darwin 125 years ago. Now in Dogs N ever Lie About Love, controversial psychoanalyst Jeffrey Masson brilliantly navigates the rich inner landscape of "our best friends." As he guides readers through the surprising depth of canine emotional compl exity, Jeffrey Masson draws from myth and literature, from scientific studi es, and from the stories and observations of dog trainers and dog lovers ar ound the world. But the stars of the book are the author's own three dogs w hose delightful and mysterious behavior provides the way to exploring a wid e range of subjects-from emotions like gratitude, compassion, loneliness, a nd disappointment to speculating what dogs dream of and how their powerful sense of smell shapes their perception of reality. As he sweeps aside old p rejudices on animal behavior, Masson reaches into a rich universe of dog fe eling to its essential core, their "master emotion": love. Like the dogs he loves, Masson's writing will capture the reader with its playful, mysterious, and serious sides. Its surprising insights provide a new dimension of understanding for dog owners everywhere.

A Colossal Failure of Common Sense: The Inside Story of the Collapse of Leh man Brothers by Lawrence G. McDonald, Patrick Robinson One of the biggest questions of the financial crisis has not been answered until now. What happened at Lehman Brothers and why was it allowed to fail, with aftershocks that rocked the global economy? In this news-making, ofte n astonishing book, a former Lehman Brothers Vice President gives us the st raight answers-right from the belly of the beast. In A Colossal Failure of Common Sense, Larry McDonald, a Wall Street inside r, reveals, the culture and unspoken rules of the game like no book has eve r done. The book is couched in the very human story of Larry McDonald's Hor atio Alger-like rise from a Massachusetts "gateway to nowhere" housing proj ect to the New York headquarters of Lehman Brothers, home of one of the wor ld's toughest trading floors. We get a close-up view of the participants in the Lehman collapse, especial ly those who saw it coming with a helpless, angry certainty. We meet the Br ahmins at the top, whose reckless, pedal-to-the-floor addiction to growth f inally demolished the nation's oldest investment bank. The Wall Street we e ncounter here is a ruthless place, where brilliance, arrogance, ambition, g reed, capacity for relentless toil, and other human traits combine in a pot ent mix that sometimes fuels prosperity but occasionally destroys it. The full significance of the dissolution of Lehman Brothers remains to be measured. But this mu.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good/Very Good. First Edition. From one of the most beloved and bestselling authors in the English languag e, a vivid, nostalgic, and utterly hilarious memoir of growing up in the 19 50s Bill Bryson was born in the middle of the American century--1951--in the mi ddle of the United States--Des Moines, Iowa--in the middle of the largest g eneration in American history--the baby boomers. As one of the best and fun niest writers alive, he is perfectly positioned to mine his memories of a t otally all-American childhood for 24-carat memoir gold. Like millions of hi s generational peers, Bill Bryson grew up with a rich fantasy life as a sup erhero. In his case, he ran around his house and neighborhood with an old f ootball jersey with a thunderbolt on it and a towel about his neck that ser ved as his cape, leaping tall buildings in a single bound and vanquishing a wful evildoers (and morons)--in his head--as "The Thunderbolt Kid." Using this persona as a springboard, Bill Bryson re-creates the life of his family and his native city in the 1950s in all its transcendent normality--a life at once completely familiar to us all and as far away and unreachable as another galaxy. It was, he reminds us, a happy time, when automobiles and televisions and appliances (not to mention nuclear weapons) grew larger and more numerous with each passing year, and DDT, cigarettes, and the fallout from atmospheric testing were considered harmless or even good for you. He brings us into the life of his loving but eccentric family, including affectionate portraits of his father, a gifted sportswriter for the local paper and dedicated practitioner of isometric exercises, and OF his mother,

That same year, a trove of Michael Jackson memorabilia--including his iconic cr ystal-encrusted white glove--was sold at auction for over $1 million to a g uy who was, officially, just the lowly forestry minister of the tiny nation of Equatorial Guinea. And in 2014, Ukrainian revolutionaries raided the pa lace of their ousted president and found a zoo of peacocks, gilded toilets, and a floating restaurant modeled after a Spanish galleon. Unlikely as it might seem, there is a thread connecting these events, and Rachel Maddow fo llows it to its crooked source: the unimaginably lucrative and equally corr upting oil and gas industry. With her trademark black humor, Maddow takes us on a switchback journey around the globe, revealing the greed and incompetence of Big Oil and Gas along the way, and drawing a surprising conclusion about why the Russian government hacked the 2016 U.S. election. She deftly shows how Russia's rich reserves of crude have, paradoxically, stunted its growth, forcing Putin to maintain his power by spreading Russia's rot into its rivals, its neighbors, the West's most important alliances, and the United States.
