Описание: From the bestselling author of "Pistol" and "Namath," a vivid, revealing, and fast-paced biography of the great boxer Ray Boom Boom Mancini. Frank Sinatra fawned over him. Warren Zevon wrote a tribute song. Sylvester Stallone produced his life story as a movie of the week. In the 1980s, Ray Boom Boom Mancini wasn t merely the lightweight champ. An adoring public considered him a national hero, the real Rocky. But it all came apart on November 13, 1982, in a brutal battle at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Mancini s obscure Korean challenger, Duk Koo Kim, went down in the fourteenth round and never regained consciousness. Three months later, Kim s despondent mother took her own life. The deaths would haunt Ray and ruin his carefully crafted image, suddenly transforming boxing s All-American Boy into a pariah. With the vivid style and deep reporting that have earned him renown as a biographer, Mark Kriegel has written a fast-paced epic. "The Good Son" is an intimate history, a saga of fathers and fighters, loss and redemption."

Описание:
Weeping Willow Volume Two: A Friend in Deed is the continuation of the comic tale of Lee Harris, a staid accountant with a beige life who, in Volume One, discovered his wife had fallen for another man, skipped town and got stranded in the odd village of River Bend where he was forced to work in a questionable diner for room and board and fell in with the local community theatre, something he would never have thought of doing if he'd been left to his own devices.
In Volume Two, Lee finally starts getting some control over his life. He finds a place to live, starts dating in earnest and actually begins looking for a job in his own field. He also eschews run-on sentences. All seems well, until he injures his coccyx in a freak accident.
Follow Lee Harris and his odd group of new friends as they desperately try to make sense of a life that seems perversely committed to thwarting their efforts. You'll also follow the "writers", Geoff (the man with the world's largest head) and Steve (who thinks Othello is a board game), who banter, argue and comment throughout the narrative in what has been described as annoyingly charming.
Weeping Willow has been called brilliant, down-to-earth, addictive, gently subversive, inherently strange, scathing and hip. It combines a love of tools, the best chili on Earth, a ghost or two, several autographed photos of Danny Bonaduce, gourmet hors d'oeuvres, several mentions of ermines, stoats and yaks, a condom emporium and fireworks into a twisted tale of survival.

Описание: The Working Centre in the downtown core of Kitchener, Ontario, is a widely recognized and successful model for community development. Begun from scratch in 1982, it is now a vast network of practical supports for the unemployed, the underemployed, the temporarily employed, and the homeless, populations that collectively constitute up to 30 percent of the labour market both locally and across North America. Transition to Common Work is the essential text about The Working Centre - its beginnings thirty years ago, the lessons learned, and the myriad ways in which its strategies and innovations can be adapted by those who share its goals. The Working Centre focuses on creating access-to-tools projects rather than administrative layers of bureaucracy. This book highlights the core philosophy behind the centre's decentralized but integrated structure, which has contributed to the creation of affordable services. Underlying this approach are common-sense innovations such as thinking about virtues rather than values, developing community tools with a social enterprise approach, and implementing a radically equal salary policy. For social workers, activists, bureaucrats, and engaged citizens in third-sector organizations (NGOs, charities, not-for-profits, co-operatives), this practical and inspiring book provides a method for moving beyond the doldrums of ""poverty relief"" into the exciting world of community building.
