Since its first publication, Golf in the Kingdom has been recognized as a classic work on the deeper mysteries of golf—a gospel of those who suspect, or know, that golf is more than a mere pastime.A young man en route to India stops in Scotland to play at the legendary Burningbush golf club and in twenty-four hours, his life is transformed. Paired with a mysterious teacher named Shivas Irons, he is led through a round of phenomenal golf, swept into a world where extraordinary powers are unleashed in a a backswing governed by true gravity. A night of adventure and revelation follow, and lead to a glimpse of Seamus MacDuff, the holy man who haunts a ravine off Burningbush's thirteenth fairway—one they call Lucifer's Rug.Murphy's account reveals the possibilities for transcendence that resides in the human soul, and through mystic-philosopher Shivas Irons, the reader, like Murphy, becomes drawn into new worlds by this ancient and haunting game.

Principal Accomplishments: How School Leaders Succeed (Critical Issues in Educational Leadership Series)

This innovative book outlines a comprehensive strategy to help principals succeed amid increasingly difficult circumstances. The authors take a fresh approach to the principalship by focusing on the accomplishments needed to support student learning. Realizing these accomplishments requires simultaneous leadership in four domains―creating sustainable goals, developing a strategic focus, practicing effective action, and building social and civic capital. They show why these accomplishments and leadership domains are important to a principal’s success and how they can be achieved. This groundbreaking text is an essential resource:
<ul>
<li>For administrators―providing a framework for school leadership that will stimulate the kind of reflection, analysis, and action that improves individual practice.</li>
<li>For educators―outlining an accomplishment-minded model that can be applied to school leadership preparation. </li>
<li>For policymakers―presenting a conceptual foundation for change that addresses today’s emphasis on accountability and standards.</li>

During the Gulf War in 1991, through long nights of relentless bombing and the disappearance of all amenities, Iraqi artist Nuha al-Radi began keeping a diary from her Baghdad home. In it, she captures scenes of surreal intensity as birds fly upside down, citizens feast royally on food about to spoil and randy dogs receive fan letters thanks to CNN. The diaries continue throughout the ensuing bleak years under sanctions, depicting the difficulties of day-to-day survival but also the funny and macabre goings-on about town. Her entries continue into exile and end in November 2002.

The Blueprints Series has been developed to enable the reader to review the core material in each discipline quickly and efficiently. The topics for each subject were chosen from an analysis of over 2000 representative review questions from the USMLE Steps 2 &amp; 3. The book is a composition of the "high-yield" topics that consistently appear on these exams. The material in these books is presented either as a workup of a symptom or as a discussion of a particular disease or pathological process. This format has been chosen to compliment the style of questions on the USMLE Steps 2 &amp; 3 which are now crafted into clinical vignettes. This unique series of books will be equally as useful to all medical students during their clerkships and sub-internships.
