Carlene Bauer
Not That Kind of Girl: A Memoir

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A moving, witty, and intelligent memoir of one woman`s quest to find the answers to life`s biggest questions Raised in evangelical churches that preached apocalypse now, Carlene Bauer grows up happy to oblige the God who presides over her New Jersey girlhood. But in high school and college, her intellectual and spiritual horizons widen, and she becomes skeptical of the judgmental God she`s been given. Still, she finds it hard to let go of the ideals she`s been raised with, and to rebel as she knows she should. She loves rock and roll, but politely declines offers of sex and drugs, she thinks the Bible and the Norton Anthology of American Literature are equally authoritative guides to life. Since there are no churches worshipping the Jesus Paul Westerberg sang about in `Can`t Hardly Wait,` and no tidy categories for those who are neither riot grrrls nor altar girls, she hovers between a hunger for the world and a suspicion of it. In her twenties, however, determined to make up for… [detailed...]

Kristina Jones, Celeste Jones, Juliana Buhring
Not Without My Sister: The True Story of Three Girls Violated and Betrayed

2008 y.
Publisher: HarperCollins UK
Description: Kristina, Celeste, and Juliana were all born into the Children of God cult, and from as early as three years old were mistreated and used as sexual beings. They were denied access to formal schooling, forced to wander the streets begging for money, and were mercilessly beaten for `crimes` as harmless as reading an encyclopedia. After being separated from each other and their mothers and forced to live in various missions with multiple foster parents, the sisters eventually managed to escape. In this startling expos?, they have come together to reveal in horrific detail the group that has destroyed the lives of so many. Their intertwining stories reveal a community spread throughout the world whose legacy of anorexia, depression, drug abuse, suicide, and even murder are impossible to erase. Together, the sisters found a strength that finally enabled them to uncover and free themselves from the shadows of their past. [detailed...]

Not Your Father`s Union Movement: Inside the Afl-Cio

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: A seismic shift occurred inside the US trade union movement in October 1994 when the `New Voice` campaign swept a new leadership into the AFL-CIO, the federation of American unions. Led by John Sweeney, the campaign forced the first democratic election for top officers in the history of the organisation. The new team, including Sweeney as President, Rich Trumka as Secretary-Treasurer, and Linda Chavaz-Thompson as Executive Vice-President, came to power promising changes from within. With the new leadership came a virtually complete recasting of the federation designed to meet the needs of working families in a changing economy and rebuild the most critical link in fighting for a more progressive and egalitarian America. The US union movement is making news again--from political action to organising, from challenging corporate power to building links with workers in an international arena. Yet, even with increased press attention and more public awareness of today`s unions, the inside… [detailed...]

Not Your Mother`s Life: Changing the Rules of Work, Love, and Family

2002 y.
Publisher: Perseus Books Group
Description: For every young woman who wants a life as well as a career--and doesn`t know how to get there from here. The next generation of women want a career and a life, but they don`t know how to get both. Having watched the boomer generation, they know they don`t want their options: sacrificing family life for high-powered careers or consigning themselves to the `mommy track.` Not Your Mother`s Life shows how today`s young women are uniquely poised to reach out and take--or create--the work/life balance that proved so elusive for the boomers. The key, Peters argues, is for women to use their newfound economic power to choose their lives instead of letting their lives choose them. Full of real-life examples of women who are doing it their own way, Not Your Mother`s Life offers this new generation a vision of how to remake the work world according to their own needs--ultimately benefiting women and men.

Not a Chimp: The Hunt to Find the Genes that Make Us Human

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Humans are primates, and our closest relatives are the other African apes - chimpanzees closest of all. With the mapping of the human genome, and that of the chimp, a direct comparison of the differences between the two, letter by letter along the billions of As, Gs, Cs, and Ts of the DNA code, has led to the widely vaunted claim that we differ from chimps by a mere 1.6% of our genetic code. A mere hair`s breadth genetically! To a rather older tradition of anthropomorphizing chimps, trying to get them to speak, dressing them up for `tea parties`, was added the stamp of genetic confirmation. It also began an international race to find that handful of genes that make up the difference - the genes that make us uniquely human. But what does that 1.6% really mean? And should it really lead us to consider extending limited human rights to chimps, as some have suggested? Are we, after all, just chimps with a few genetic tweaks? Is our language and our technology just an extension of the… [detailed...]

Not a Song Like Any Other: An Anthology of Writings by Mori Ogai

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The literary writings of Mori Ogai (1862-1922), one of the giant figures of the Meiji period, have become increasingly well known to readers of English through a number of recent translations of his novels and short stories. Ogai was more than a writer of fiction, however. He has long been regarded in Japan as one of the most influential intellectual and artistic figures of his period, possessing a wide range of enthusiasms and concerns, many developed through his early European experiences. Not a Song Like Any Other attempts to reveal the full range of Ogai`s creative endeavor, providing trenchant examples of his remarkable range, from dramatist and storyteller to poet and polemicist, all translated into English for the first time. The first of seven parts, `The Author Himself,` offers a variety of self portraits and other insights into Ogai`s character through his essays--laconic, ironic, detached--written over the course of his career. `Mori Ogai in Germany` reveals… [detailed...]

Not by Genes Alone: How Culture Transformed Human Evolution

2005 y.
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
Description: Humans are a striking anomaly in the natural world. While we are similar to other mammals in many ways, our use of culture sets us apart. Our unparalleled ability to adapt has allowed us to occupy virtually every habitat on earth using an incredible variety of tools and subsistence techniques. Our societies are larger, more complex, and more cooperative than any other mammal`s. In this stunning exploration of human adaptation, Peter J.Richerson and Robert Boyd argue that only a Darwinian theory of cultural evolution can explain these unique characteristics. `Not by Genes Alone` offers a radical interpretation of human evolution, arguing that our ecological dominance and our singular social systems stem from a psychology uniquely adapted to create complex culture. Richerson and Boyd illustrate here that culture is neither superorganic nor the handmaiden of the genes. Rather, it is essential to human adaptation, as much a part of human biology as bipedal locomotion. Drawing on… [detailed...]

Description: Chatting with neighbors, going to church, or even unfettered family time have become a quaint memory for many people in a corporate culture that expects more and more from its employees. In Not For Sale, J. Murray Elwood examines the odd transformation that has taken place--work has become `home` and home has become `work,` especially for young professionals. Not For Sale shows todays slaves to the office, fax and cell phone how to preserve their humanity despite often inhumane demands, how to balance the responsibilities of the workday with the yearnings of the heart. Elwood helps troubled men and women combine their values with their employment to find an inner-peace that gives their job a certain spirituality, an unlikely union that has become essential to salvage personal relationships and individual sanity. Not everything comes down to the bottom line--yours or your companys. Not For Sale shows professionals how to find purpose beyond the mighty dollar. Not For Sale… [detailed...]

The animals that came on board two by two. The rain that fell for forty daysand forty nights. But what about the rest of the story? What about Noah`s wife and daughters-in-law? And what if there was a daughter as well? How would it feel to head into the unknown, with only each other and all those animals? What would it belike to turn away friends and neighbors struggling in the water? Could all of it really be part of God`s Plan -- the hunger and pain and fear?

As a result, this biography is fresh and revealing, a brand-new look at one of Hollywood`s most acclaimed stars. Joan Crawford was born Lucille LeSueur in San Antonio, Texas, in 1908 (as she always insisted, though other sources disagreed). Her father abandoned the family, and her mother soon remarried, Lucille was now known as Billie Cassin. Young Billie loved to dance and achieved her early success in silent films playing a dancer. Her breakthrough role came in Our Dancing Daughters. Soon married to Hollywood royalty, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. (who called her `Billie`), she was a star in her own right, playing opposite John Barrymore and a stellar cast in M-G-M`s Grand Hotel. Crawford was cast opposite another… [detailed...]
