The Gorilla's Guide to Good Living takes readers into the wild habitat of man's closest relative--the gorilla -- to explore ways man can improve his life. Based on exhaustive research of scientific studies and interviews, the authors present life lessons based on the behavior of this peaceful, sociable vegetarian. Chapters focus on how gorillas approach different aspect of life. The diet chapter, for example, includes a low-fat, high-fiber gorilla diet that lowers cholesterol and controls weight. Other chapters focus on parenting, social cohesion, exercise, peaceful co-existence, survival and even sustaining a healthy ecology.

� Inspired by an award-winning series of Esquire magazine articles on the author's own survival of colon cancer, The Colon Cancer Survivors' Guide shows how a person diagnosed with cancer stops becoming a patient and starts becoming a survivor. The book draws on medical research, Pesmen's and other survivors' personal experiences, plus insights from renown health care professionals on how to help simplify and enrich life after cancer from the first CT follow-up scans to the hallowed five-year-cure finish line. Above all, it offers advice on the healing of scars, both physical and emotional, how to leave cancer behind, and how to move confidently forward. It's a new type of cancer book focusing on the survivors, not the patient as a target market. While it contains the grit, the personal, and the shock surrounding of the battling cancer, it also stresses the new (diet, treatment and other self-care) options of a modern colon cancer case. Written not only for survivors, but also for their family, friends, oncologists and other healthcare professionals. Cancer Survivors' Guide Reading Curtis' accounts of his experience, impressions and reactions has changed the way I practice medicine. -- Mark Lane Welton, MD, Chief, Colon and Rectal Surgery, Stanford University School of Medicine [The Colon Cancer Survivors' Guide] is a great perspective on what it is like to live through diagnosis and treatment for cancer.� It's got many good resources for patients and family members as well.� I would recommend this book for people who are working in cancer control and to people who are diagnosed with or caring for someone with cancer. --Margaret E. McCusker, M.D., M.S. Public Health Medical Officer, Comprehensive Cancer Control Section, California Department of Health Services  [The Colon Cancer Survivors' Guide] allows readers to see and feel what the writer is expressing. The book also provides very practical, fact-based information about diet, tips for caregivers, insurance, and questions to ask healthcare providers. -- Barbara D. Powe, PhD, RN, Associate Editor, Oncology Nursing Forum, Oncology Nursing Society I think the book would be very useful for colon and other cancer patients. It is an open, honest story of living through the early phases of diagnosis and treatment. [Pesmen] expresses the full range of emotions that we know most patients experience--but hearing it from him as the person with cancer is touching, inspirational and informative.� Pesmen does a nice job of referencing credible sources/resourcesAll in all, I think this would be a very useful resource for cancer survivors. --June Ryan, MPA, Program Manager of the Nebraska Comprehensive Cancer Control Program, Nebraska C.A.R.E.S. (Cancer Awareness, Research, Education and Service, National Comprehensive Cancer Control Programs) The candidness and originality of Curtis Pesmen's writing serve as guides along the cancer journey with insights that are both practical and moving. --Melissa Weber, Managing Editor CURE magazine Regardless of the type of cancer you had or have, this guide is a window into a world best described as the 'new normal' -- Louise Bates, survivor/chairwoman, Colorectal Cancer Network�

Snipers, shelling, car bombs, suicide attacks. This is Beirut 1983, and Lara McCauley is an outsider in a city at war. Against this chaotic canvas, Lara tries to hold her marriage together, but her life is quietly falling apart. Lara and Mac arrive to take up his new posting, not long after the Marines are sent in as peacekeepers to help restore stability in this fractured land, but the Marines quickly become embroiled in Lebanon's political problems. Her husband, Mac, an American journalist, has his hands full with work and a new circle of comrades in arms at the Commodore Hotel. Lonely and scared, Lara increasingly seeks out the friendship of a Polish journalist, and their desperate affair sets into motion events with unforeseen, fatal consequences.

Lara McCauley never wanted to go to Beirut. But in 1983, when her husband’s career as a foreign correspondent brings her there in the midst of the civil war, she tries to make the best of it for the sake of her marriage. Unlike the other foreign visitors—most of whom are hard-charging journalists like her husband—Lara can’t seem to find her footing in the chaotic city. Although she’s relatively insulated from risk, she’s as terrified of the frequent eruptions of violence as she is ashamed of her fear. Bored, lonely, and afraid, Lara defies her increasingly bullying husband by befriending a mysterious Polish journalist and beginning to work part-time as a broadcast film editor. But she is an inexperienced player in a dangerous game. As the U.S. Òmission of presenceÓ in Lebanon rapidly morphs into something far more deadly, Lara unwittingly sets in motion a chain of events with devastating consequences.Drawing on her years of experience as a foreign correspondent, Margaret Lowrie Robertson brings war-torn Beirut to life in this gripping debut. — Library Journal (Starred Review)

Andrew Grant, former managing director of the London Zoo, draws on research, interviews and experience to illuminate hundreds of fascinating details on the wild mountain gorilla, one of our closest relatives. Heavily illustrated with witty graphic-novel styled illustrations, Nearly Human captures the nearly-human behaviors of the wild gorilla in a fun and engaging manner. And, by looking closely at the wonders of the gorilla, Grant's work suggests taking a closer look at ourselves and why they need to be saved. Most enjoyable, amusing, and accurate. -- George Schaller, naturalist, author, conservationist Grant brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to a unique view of gorillas and humans around them... -- Douglas Myers, CEO, Zoological Society of San Diego. Fact-filled and as playful and direct as its gorilla subject. -- Penny Patterson, teacher of Koko the gorilla and President of The Gorilla Foundation

Grantland Rice (1880-1954), famous for his musings and sports stories in the New York Herald Tribune, was arguably the best-loved sports writer of the 20th century. He ultimately established himself nationally in New York at the Herald Tribune. Rice was famous for his literary flourishes, and some of his writing has survived as classic American idioms. It's not whether you win or lose, but how you play the game was coined by Rice. Clare Briggs (1875-1930), one of America' most important and popular cartoonists, produced cartoons for the St. Louis Chronicle, the New York Journal and ultimately to Chicago, where he created A. Piker Clerk, which garnered Briggs national notoriety. In New York he created numerous titles, including When a Feller Needs a Friend, There's at Least One in Every Office and Danny Dreamer.
