2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: “Perfect is boring.”Well, 1983 certainly wasn’t boring for the Welch family. Somehow, between their handsome father’s mysterious death, their glamorous soap-opera-star mother’s cancer diagnosis, and a phalanx of lawyers intent on bankruptcy proceedings, the four Welch siblings managed to handle each new heartbreaking misfortune in the same way they dealt with the unexpected arrival of the forgotten-about Chilean exchange student–together.All that changed with the death of their mother. While nineteen-year-old Amanda was legally on her own, the three younger siblings–Liz, sixteen, Dan, fourteen, and Diana, eight–were each dispatched to a different set of family friends. Quick-witted and sharp-tongued, Amanda headed for college in New York City and immersed herself in an ’80s world of alternative music and drugs. Liz, living with the couple for whom she babysat, followed in Amanda’s footsteps until high school graduation when she took a job in Norway as a nanny. Mischievous, rebellious… [detailed...]

Of the 125,000 men who flew with Bomber Command, more than 55,000 perished in the tortured skies over Nazi-dominated Europe. [detailed...]

The Killing of Karen Silkwood: The Story Behind the Kerr-McGee Plutonium Case, Second Edition

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Karen Silkwood, an employee of the Kerr-McGee plutonium processing plant, was killed in a car crash on her way to deliver important documents to a newspaper reporter in 1974. Silkwood was a union activist concerned about health and safety issues at the plant, and her death at age twenty-eight was considered by many to be highly suspicious. Was it Kerr-McGee`s revenge on a troublesome whistleblower? Or was it part of a much larger conspiracy reaching from the Atomic Energy Commission to the FBI and theCIA? Richard Rashke leads us through the myriad charges and countercharges, the theories and facts, and reaches conclusions based solely on the evidence in hand. Originally published in 1981, his book offers a vivid, edgy picture of the tensions that racked this country in the 1970s. However, the volume is not only an important historical document. Complex, fascinating characters populate this compelling insider`s view of the nuclear industry. The issues it… [detailed...]

The Kimchi Matters: Global Business and Local Politics in a Crisis-Driven World (AgatePro Books)

2005 y.
Publisher: Agate
Description: Kimchi--a dish consisting of cabbage leaves fermented in chili--is the centerpiece of Korean cuisine. Yet it has not been globalized like the Big Mac, probably because of its pungent smell. The authors use kimchi as a metaphor for the missing ingredient of globalization initiatives, the local political dynamics that are often overlooked when corporations decide to set up shop in foreign lands. Understanding kimchi is essential to the success of both international business and foreign policy in an age of globalization. The authors examine emerging markets around the globe and demonstrate how, in the past, sensitivity to (or ignorance of) kimchi has had an enormous impact on attempts to form business relationships between disparate cultures. This message couldn`t come at a more critical time, with the Bush administration fully engaged in nation building in Iraq. As the authors show, the assumption that other cultures want or need a particular form of government can have disastrous… [detailed...]

The Kindly Ones

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: “Oh my human brothers, let me tell you how it happened.” Dr. Max Aue, the man at the heart of Jonathan Littell’s stunning and controversial novel The Kindly Ones, personifies the evils of the Second World War and the Holocaust. Highly educated and cultured, he was an ambitious SS officer, a Nazi and mass murderer who was in the upper echelons of the Third Reich. He tells us of his experience during the war. He was present at Auschwitz and Babi Yar, witnessed the battle of Stalingrad, and survived the fall of Berlin — receiving a medal from Hitler personally in the last days of Nazi Germany. Long after the war, he is living a comfortable bourgeois life in France, married with two children, managing a lace factory. And now, having evaded justice, he speaks out, giving a precise and accurate record of his life. The tone of his account is detached, lapidary, and for the most part unrepentant, whether he is describing his participation in mass murder on the Eastern Front, his bureaucratic… [detailed...]

Marc Freedman brings experience, research, and realism to these questions in an effort to present the truth about the mentoring movement sweeping America today.
