Alaa Al Aswany
The Yacoubian Building

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe Yacoubian Building holds all that Egypt was and has become over the 75 years since its namesake was built on one of downtown Cairo?s main boulevards. From the pious son of the building?s doorkeeper and the raucous, impoverished squatters on its roof, via the tattered aristocrat and the gay intellectual in its apartments, to the ruthless businessman whose stores occupy its ground floor, each sharply etched character embodies a facet of modern Egypt -- where political corruption, ill-gotten wealth, and religious hypocrisy are natural allies, where the arrogance and defensiveness of the powerful find expression in the exploitation of the weak, where youthful idealism can turn quickly to extremism, and where an older, less violent vision of society may yet prevail. Alaa Al Aswany?s novel caused an unprecedented stir when it was first published in 2002 and has remained the world?s best selling novel in the Arabic language since. [detailed...]

In an era of multimillionaire free agents, fractured clubhouses, revenue-sharing, and off-the-field scandals, Torre forged a team ethos that united his players and made the Yankees, once again, the greatest team in sports.

Description: This 230-page report from CTR covers the strategies critical to battling the year 2000 (Y2K) date problem and is a required resource for information systems (IS) managers. Industry analysts see the Y2K as a potential business survival issue that demands immediate action. What Does the Century Date Change Mean to You?

The problem arises because there is no two-digit century value within the date field of today`s legacy systems to distinguish between the 20th and the 21st centuries. According to Kevin Schick, spokesman of the Gartner Group, `By 1999, without corrective measures, a full 90% of all applications and systems will be affected by the year 2000 (Y2K) date change, producing unknown or erroneous results.` CTR`s report, The Year 2000 Crisis: Developing a Successful Plan for Information Systems, examines the Y2K date change issue and discusses the problem in detail.

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: With six other children at home, Kathryn Lynard Soper was prepared for the challenges another newborn would bring. But after Thomas`s complicated birth, his diagnosis—Down syndrome—forced her to face her deepest fears and weaknesses, her ignorance and prejudice, and her limitations as a mother and as a human being. Her struggle, coupled with the demands of caring for a fragile baby and juggling her family`s needs, sparked the worst episode of depression she`d experienced in decades. The Year My Son and I Were Born is Soper`s brutally honest yet beautiful account of how she escaped a downward spiral of despair and emerged with newfound peace. Antidepressant therapy restored her equilibrium, and interactions with friends and family brought needed perspective. But the most profound change came through her growing relationship with Thomas.

The Year of Eating Dangerously: A Global Adventure in Search of Culinary Extremes

2007 y.
Publisher: St. Martin`s Press
Description: Fugu. Dog. Cobra. Bees. Spleen. A 600,000 SCU chili pepper. All considered foods by millions of people around the world. And all objects of great fascination to Tom Parker Bowles, a food journalist who grew up eating his mother`s considerably safer roast chicken, shepherd`s pie and mushy peas. Intrigued by the food phobias of two friends, Parker Bowles became inspired to examine the cultural divides that make some foods verboten or `dangerous` in the culture he grew up with while being seen as lip-smacking delicacies in others. So began a year-long odyssey through Asia, Europe and America in search of the world`s most thrilling, terrifying and odd foods. Parker Bowles is always witty and sometimes downright hilarious in recounting his quest for envelope-pushing meals, ranging from the potentially lethal to the outright disgusting to the merely gluttonous-and he proves in this book that an open mouth and an open mind are the only passports a man needs to truly discover… [detailed...]

He vows to follow the Ten Commandments. To be fruitful and multiply. To love his neighbor. But also to obey the hundreds of less publicized rules: to avoid wearing clothes made of mixed fibers, to play a ten-string harp, to stone adulterers. The resulting spiritual journey is at once funny and profound, reverent and irreverent, personal and universal and will make you see history`s most influential book with new eyes. Jacobs`s quest transforms his life even more radically than the year spent reading the entire Encyclopedia Britannica for The Know-It-All.
