Book excerpt: The true story of a filmmaker whose investigation of her film’s subject opened a new window onto the world of Cold War espionage, CIA secrets, and the assassination of John F. Kennedy. Independent filmmaker Mary Haverstick thought she’d stumbled onto the project of a lifetime—a biopic of aviation pioneer Jerrie Cobb, the key figure in a group of extraordinary women who in 1960 passed the same tests as the legendary male astronauts of the Mercury 7 but never went to space. Just as casting was set to begin, Haverstick received a mysterious warning from a government agent; soon she began to suspect that there was more to Jerrie’s story than what met the eye. As she dug deeper, she discovered that Jerrie’s life shadowed that of a mysterious CIA agent named June Cobb, whose espionage career traced an arc of intrigue from the jungles of South America to Fidel Castro’s Cuba, to the communist literary circles in Mexico City—and ultimately into the dark heart of the Kennedy assassination in Dallas. Haverstick’s attempt to learn the truth directly from Jerrie would plunge her into a cat-and-mouse game that stretched across a decade, deep into a thicket of coded CIA files. As she uncovered a remarkable set of mostly unknown women whose high-stakes intelligence work left its only traces in redacted files, she also found shocking new clues about what really happened at Dealey Plaza in 1963. Offering fresh insight into the Kennedy assassination and a vivid picture of women in midcentury intelligence, A Woman I Know brings to life the astonishing duplicities of the Cold War intelligence game, a world where code names and hidden identities were the lifeblood of spies bent on seeking advantage by any means necessary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Behind every great woman . . . is another great woman. Discover the connections between eighty-four female pioneers in art, politics, sports, aviation, science, and more . . . Threading tales from across the globe and throughout history, this inspiring book reveals the lives of innovative aviatrixes, gun-toting revolutionaries, extraordinary athletes, women with incomparable intellects, and more. Each woman is connected to the next, bringing to light the women behind the scenes—those who didn’t get the credit for scientific discoveries, sporting achievements, or acts of bravery in their lifetimes. Some names will be familiar, some might not, but all are equally important. With compelling storytelling and beautifully illustrated portraits, I Know a Woman is bold and engaging with a unique purpose: to uncover the links between eighty-four pioneering women and show the indomitable strength of womankind—through the stories of Michelle Obama, Virginia Woolf, Gala Dalí, Emma Watson, Nina Simone, Billie Jean King, Frida Kahlo, Marie Curie, Georgia O’Keeffe, Greta Garbo, Eleanor Roosevelt, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Malala Yousafzai, and many more pioneering women who have shaped the world we live in today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An honest and practical handbook that reveals important insights into relationships between men and women and work, Play Like a Man, Win Like a Woman, is a must-read for every woman who wants to leverage her power in the workplace. Women make up almost half of today's labor force, but in corporate America they don't share half of the power. Only four of the Fortune 500 company CEOs are women, and it's only been in the last few years that even half of the Fortune 500 companies have more than one female officer. A major reason for this? Most women were never taught how to play the game of business. Throughout her career in the super-competitive, male-dominated media industry, Gail Evans, one of the country's most powerful executives, has met innumerable women who tell her that they feel lost in the workplace, almost as if they were playing a game without knowing the directions. In this book, she reveals the secrets to the playbook of success and teaches women at all levels of the organization--from assistant to vice president--how to play the game of business to their advantage. Men know the rules because they wrote them, but women often feel shut out of the process because they don't know when to speak up, when to ask for responsibility, what to say at an interview, and a lot of other key moves that can make or break a career. Sharing with humor and candor her years of lessons from corporate life, Gail Evans gives readers practical tools for making the right decisions at work. Among the rules you will learn are: • How to Keep Score at Work • When to Take a Risk • How to Deal with the Imposter Syndrome • Ten Vocabulary Words That Mean Different Things to Men and Women • Why Men Can be Ugly, and You Can't • When to Quit Your Job

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every woman needs to know her C.U.P Size: Calling, Uniqueness, and Purpose is not only one of the greatest literary works of our times but also serves as an empowerment and equipping resource tool that has the flexibility and reach to touch every female on the planet from ages 12-80 years old. Its play on words gives its author a unique advantage and opportunity to encourage women of all ages and stages as it relates to women walking out their purpose here on planet earth. From those who have the candid privilege to ingest a snap shot of this book the reviews have been nothing less than stellar. One C.O.O of a fortune 100 company was quoted as saying "this is the Woman Thou Art Loosed of the emerging generations." From the 1st chapter Charles Bond in a manner as only he can challenges his readers on the controversial issue of could God have been a woman. He celebrates and confirms the fact that the woman serves as the greatest catalyst of the human race because she completes the framework of creation as the crown of Gods Glory. In chapters such as "Onions Don't Cry," he reinforces the fact that whatever you give a woman she gives it back to you multiplied as well as improved. He boldly proclaims that if you give a woman a seed, she will give you offspring. If you give her groceries she will give you a meal. If you give her a house, she will make it into a home. If you give Madam C J Walker a scalp disease and some home remedies she will give you a sulfur shampoo to cure it and she will give you our first self-made female millionaire. If you give an Albanian nurse named Teresa an orphanage full of sick children she will give you a healed community and a Nobel Peace Prize. If you give a young woman from Mississippi a journalism degree and an anchor job she will give you the OWN Network and the Oprah Winfrey show. And if you give a virgin from Nazareth a night with the Holy Spirit she will give you the Savior of the whole world and the only begotten Son of God In chapters like "Finding The Right Bra" he peaks our interest by being provocative and informative and taking the 17 different styles of braziers available on the market and compares them to the 17 types of people that every girl and woman needs in her life. From "training bra" type people who show us how to get the hang of it, to "mastectomy bra" people who allow us to shine without shame. He closes this literary offering by assuring us that C.U.P Size is not about size at all, but it's about significance.

This book was released on 2012-04-24 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring advice, wisdom, and observations from an array of prominent and beloved women, 30 Things Every Woman Should Have and Should Know by the Time She's 30 is an essential guide (and perfect gift) for women on the brink of thirty--and for those who are already there! Fifteen years ago, Glamour published a list of distinctive yet universally true must-haves and must-knows for women on the cusp of and beyond the age of thirty titled, "30 Things Every Woman Should Have and Should Know by the Time She's 30." It became a phenomenon. Originally penned by Glamour columnist Pamela Redmond Satran, The List found a second life when women began to forward it to one another online, millions of times. It became a viral sensation, misattributed to everyone from Maya Angelou to Hillary Clinton--but there's only one original list, and it stands the test of time. Quirky and profound, The List defines the absolute must-haves (#11: "A set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra") and must-knows (#1: "How to fall in love without losing yourself") for grown-up female happiness. Now, Glamour magazine has gathered together its editors and an incredible group of notable women to expand on each of the items on The List in wise, thoughtful, and intimate essays. Kathy Griffin meditates on knowing when to try harder and when to walk away. Lisa Ling explores the idea that your childhood may not have been perfect, but it's over, and Lauren Conrad shares what she has learned about what she would and wouldn't do for money or love. Other personal insights come from Maya Angelou, Rachel Zoe, Taylor Swift, Katie Couric, Portia de Rossi, Kelly Corrigan, ZZ Packer, Bobbi Brown, Padma Lakshmi, Angie Harmon, and many more. Along with essays based on The List, writers share their feelings about what the milestone of turning thirty meant to them. 30 Things Every Woman Should Have and Should Know by the Time She's 30 is the one book women of all ages will turn to for timely and timeless wisdom.
