Virgin Rebel: Richard Branson in

His Own Words is a

comprehensive guidebook to the

inner workings of the Virgin

Group chairman and founder.

Hundreds of Branson's best

quotes, comprising thoughts on

business, music,

entrepreneurship, politics,

exploration, and life lessons,

provide an intimate and direct

look into the mind of this modern

business icon.

Danny Ellis was a survivor, strong

and resilient. A successful

singer/songwriter, he was proud of

the way he’d ‘handled’ his painful

past: the grinding poverty of the

1950s Dublin slums, and the brutality

of the orphanage, the notorious

Artane Industrial School where he

was left. He’d safely buried it. Or so

he thought. Then one night, while

writing a powerful song that would

launch his acclaimed album, 800

Voices, his past came flooding back

to haunt him. Long-forgotten

memories of betrayal and

abandonment burst forth in a

shocking revelation: his eight-year-old

self was still lost in the orphanage..

Born to parents who were

enthusiastic naturalists, and linked

through his wider family to a clutch of

accomplished scientists, Richard

Dawkins was bound to have biology

in his genes. But what were the

influences that shaped his life and

intellectual development? And who

inspired him to become the

pioneering scientist and public thinker

now famous (and infamous to some)

around the world?

When Stuart Weitzman opened its first

boutique on Madison Avenue, its

displays of specially commissioned

fantasy shoes quickly became a

destination, drawing crowds form all

over the world to its magical windows.

The best of this carefully curated

collection is on display in book form for

the first time in this unique gift volume,

where these imaginative creations are

presented in vivid detail. With its

inventive and beautifully crafted

footwear in a vast range of materials—

from watercolor paper to playing cards,

from fresh flowers to frosting—this

stunning showcase where fashion and

fantasy meet will thrill shoe and art

lovers alike.

I step in through the heavy

doors of the old city hospital

and plunge back in time.

Jaysus, the sounds, smells,

peeling paint! Nothing's

changed here since I first used

this place as a homeless

sixteen year old. Now, the

creep who put me there,

somewhere down along these

ancient passages he is lying

shivering and shaking in a bed

of pain.

Do you have a hobby you wish

you could do all day? An

obsession that keeps you up at

night? This title shows you how to

use the power of the Internet to

turn your real interests into real

businesses.

In this eye-opening handbook, the

internationally noted speaker,

economics expert, and bestselling

author of IOU: The Debt Threat and

Silent Takeover reveals the extent to

which the biggest decisions in our

lives are often made on the basis of

flawed information, weak

assumptions, corrupted data,

insufficient scrutiny of others, and a

lack of self-knowledge. In Eyes Wide

Open, she weaves together scientific

research with real-world examples

from Hollywood to Harry Potter,

NASA to World War Two spies, to

construct a path to more astute and

empowered decision-making in ten

clear steps.

9780062131720 NOTHIN' TO LOSE (Hard Cover) KEN SHARP HARPER US S$38.00 BIO

From his hiring as a legislative

assistant to Kennedy's death in

1963, the author was with him

during the key crises and turning

points - including the spectacular

race for the vice presidency at the

1956 convention, the launching of

Kennedy's presidential candidacy,

the TV debates with Nixon, and

election night at Hyannis Port.

Nothin' to Lose: The Making of KISS

(1972-1975) chronicles, for the first

time, the crucial formative years of

the legendary rock band KISS,

culminating with the groundbreaking

success of their classic 1975 album

Alive! and the smash single "Rock

and Roll All Nite," a song that nearly

four decades later remains one of

rock's most enduring anthems.

Drawing on more than two hundred

interviews, the book offers a

captivating and intimate fly-on-the-

wall account of their launch, charting

the struggles and ultimate victories

that led them to the threshold of

superstardom.

When the nation’s economy

foundered in 2008, blame was

directed almost universally at Wall

Street bankers. But Robert B.

Reich, one of our most experienced

and trusted voices on public policy,

suggests another reason for the

meltdown. Our real problem, he

argues, lies in the increasing

concentration of income at the top,

robbing the vast middle class of the

purchasing power it needs to keep

the economy going. This thoughtful

and detailed account of the

American economy—and how we

can fix it—is a practical, humane,

and much-needed blueprint for

rebuilding our society.

your life, showing you how to carefully

and consistently evaluate what your IT

(Important Thing) should be, and how

to get IT done. Identifying It isn’t just

the first step in the process of getting

focused and heading in the right

direction, it’s every step. Getting to It:

Accomplishing the Important, Handling

the Urgent, and Removing the

Unnecessary provides the necessary

tools to accomplish the important,

handle the urgent, and get rid of the

unnecessary. Want to enjoy a more

fulfilling life? Get to It.

9780062071613 LUCK OR SOMETHING LIKE IT (Soft Cover) KENNY ROGERS HARPER US S$24.00 BIORecounting his early years, first as a

jazz bassist and later as a member of

the pioneering folk group the New

Christy Minstrels, the author charts

how he came into his own as an artist

with the First Edition, only to have the

band's breakup in the 1970s raise

questions about his musical future.

Mark Twain was a figure larger

than life: massive in talent,

eruptive in temperament,

unpredictable in his actions. He

crafted stories of heroism,

adventure, tragedy, and comedy

that reflected the changing

America of the time, and he tells

his own story with the same flair

he brought to his fiction. Writing

this autobiography on his

deathbed, Twain vowed to be

"free and frank and

unembarrassed" in the

recounting of his life and his

experiences.

past, but the one true way they
