Описание: There's nothing funny about diabetes. But from the mind of Al Stevens, long-time columnist for Dr. Dobb's Journal, stand-up comedian, and author of "Politically Incorrect Scripts for Comedy Ventriloquists," the lighter side of the disease can make you laugh while it scares the heck out of you with its potential for ruining and shortening your life. From his first diagnosis, which he blames on a topless bar, to memory losses and hallucinations, to getting thrown out of a pharmacy, Stevens tells with good nature and humor the story of his thirty-plus years coping with diabetes. Whether you're a diabetic, related to one, or have one as a friend-which most people do-you will gain new insight into the disease that Stevens calls "public enemy number three." You might even pick up some pointers on how to cope, what to do, and, by example, what not to do.

Описание: At times the world seems full of evil and injustice. Another school shooting, a natural disaster, the innocent exploited--these are our headlines. The brokenness of the world causes us to question: Where is God in this? How could a good God allow . . . ? Why should I believe in a God who . . . ? In A Very Good God in a Badly Broken World, Dan Boone says that a helpful way to speak honestly about God in the midst of turmoil is to tell stories--the tough stories: Noah, floating in the chaos. Job, sitting in the rubble. The psalmists, uttering unthinkable prayers.These stories help us remember how very good God is. These stories empower us to respond to a broken world with confidence and hope.

Описание: "Brimming, addictive . . . In Everybody Behaves Badly, the party has just begun and the taste of fame is still ripe . . . The Lost Generation is] restored to reckless youth in living black and white." -- James Wolcott, Vanity Fair
"An essential book . . . a page-turner. Blume combines the best aspects of critic, biographer and storyteller . . . and puts the results together with the skill of an accomplished novelist. This is] a complicated story, told masterfully." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune
"Magnificently reported." -- Gay Talese
In the summer of 1925, Ernest Hemingway traveled to Pamplona for the infamous running of the bulls. He then channeled that trip's drunken brawls, sexual rivalry, midnight betrayals, and midday hangovers into a novel that redefined modern literature. Lesley Blume tells the full story behind Hemingway's legendary rise for the first time, revealing how he created his own image as the bull-fighting aficionado, hard-drinking literary genius, and expatriate bon vivant. In all its youth, lust, and rivalry, the Lost Generation is illuminated here as never before.
"Engrossing . . . Drawing on journals, letters, and autobiographies of many members of the artistic circles in which Hemingway moved in the early 1920s, Blume shows how ruthlessly Hemingway betrayed his mentors, skewered his friends in his fiction, and sought to advance his career at all costs." -- Boston Globe
Описание: The Jesus everybody likes, says Mark Strauss, is not the Jesus found in the Gospels. He preached about hell far more than the apostle Paul. He told his followers to hate their families. Not one of his twelve apostles was a woman. When we unpack these puzzling paradoxes and more, we gain greater insight into Jesus` countercultural message and mission.
