Book Synopsis I Love You More Than You Know by : Jonathan Ames
Download or read book I Love You More Than You Know written by Jonathan Ames and published by Open Road + Grove/Atlantic. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Utterly delightful” essays from the creator of the HBO’s Bored to Death reveal intimate details of his life as a famously neurotic New York writer (Brendan Halpin, Los Angeles Times). Jonathan Ames has drawn comparisons across the literary spectrum, from David Sedaris to F. Scott Fitzgerald to P.G. Wodehouse, and his books, as well as his abilities as a performer, have made him a favorite on the Late Show with David Letterman. Whether he’s chasing deranged cockroaches around his apartment, kissing a beautiful actress on the set of an avant-garde film, finding himself stuck perilously on top of a fence in the middle of the night in Memphis, or provoking fights with huge German men, Jonathan Ames has an uncanny knack for getting himself into outlandish situations. In I Love You More Than You Know, Ames once again turns his own adventures, neuroses, joys, heartaches, and insights into profound and hilarious tales. Alive with love and tenderness for his son, his parents, his great-aunt—and even strangers in bars—Ames looks beneath the surface of our world to find the beauty in the perverse, the sweetness in loneliness, and the humor in pain in essays that are “both poignant and silly—an irresistible mix” (John Dicker, Philadelphia Weekly).
Book Synopsis Greater Love Has No Man by : Rita Leonty-Favreau
Download or read book Greater Love Has No Man written by Rita Leonty-Favreau and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2020-10-07 with total page 595 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whenever we seek to manipulate something we do not understand, we expose ourselves to unknown dangers. Greater Love Has No Man is a characterization of a gross misunderstanding. It is an illustration of the catastrophic result of a presumptuous mind, which sets about to meddle with things beyond its understanding but which it believes it not only understands but can manipulate. When Courtney Willard sets out to manipulate words from the Bible, which he refutes as being the infallible Word of God, being also a self-proclaimed atheist, he has no idea that the end of what he engineers will turn out very different from what he envisioned. In the end, he would inadvertently prove what he sought to discredit: "The natural man does not comprehend the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness unto him. Neither can he know them, for they are spiritually discerned." Greater Love Has No Man is a poignant journey into a misunderstanding. One which along the way is fraught with laughter and tears, friendship and enmity, despair, and the resilience of a love which ultimately restores hope.
Book Synopsis Changing the Game by : John O'Sullivan
Download or read book Changing the Game written by John O'Sullivan and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern day youth sports environment has taken the enjoyment out of athletics for our children. Currently, 70% of kids drop out of organized sports by the age of 13, which has given rise to a generation of overweight, unhealthy young adults. There is a solution. John O’Sullivan shares the secrets of the coaches and parents who have not only raised elite athletes, but have done so by creating an environment that promotes positive core values and teaches life lessons instead of focusing on wins and losses, scholarships, and professional aspirations. Changing the Game gives adults a new paradigm and a game plan for raising happy, high performing children, and provides a national call to action to return youth sports to our kids.
Book Synopsis Heaven Has No Ground by : Hana Andronikova
Download or read book Heaven Has No Ground written by Hana Andronikova and published by Academic Studies PRess. This book was released on 2023-11-14 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heaven Has No Ground is the fierce, intimate story of Ama, a young woman who is reckoning with the death of her father when she receives her own cancer diagnosis and, contrary to the wishes of family and friends, decides to seek alternative treatments rather than conventional chemotherapy and radiation. While this book was published as a work of fiction to great acclaim in the Czech Republic, it follows very closely the life story of its author, Hana Andronikova, who wrote the book during a period of optimism in her own battle with breast cancer. Much like Hana, Ama travels the world to find guidance and healing—going to Peru to consult a shaman and receive the Amazon’s wisdom; to communities of Christian believers and Native Americans in the Nevada desert; and to the holy sites of Israel. Using striking metaphors and intensely emotional language in journal entries, emails, and narrative fragments, Andronikova takes us with her on a remarkable journey as she comes to grips with her human limitations and celebrates her place in the circle of life.

Book excerpt: With both the guilty and innocent alike in harm's way, Tyler and Christina must face all their fears . . . or never live to see the future. America's Heartland, 1946.

Newly-arrived in a small Wisconsin town, Christina Tucker now dares to chase her long-cherished dreams: put her wartime nursing skills to use and reconnect with country life. But helping a shell-shocked veteran recover soon tests her determination and disturbs town memories best left buried. She has no choice but to turn to her patient's seemingly-irresponsible brother, Tyler Sutter. A restless ex-soldier, Tyler can't believe this pretty ladylike nurse can heal his family. Yet as Christina begins to understand Tyler's own fears, the two grow close, then closer still-as a terrible secret sparks one man's violent, vengeful spree.

Book Synopsis Baseball as a Road to God by : John Sexton
Download or read book Baseball as a Road to God written by John Sexton and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-03-07 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The president of New York University offers a love letter to America’s most beloved sport and a tribute to its underlying spirituality. For more than a decade, John Sexton has taught a wildly popular New York University course about two seemingly very different things: religion and baseball. Yet Sexton argues that one is actually a pathway to the other. Baseball as a Road to God is about touching that something that lies beyond logical understanding. Sexton illuminates the surprisingly large number of mutual concepts shared between baseball and religion: faith, doubt, conversion, miracles, and even sacredness among many others. Structured like a game and filled with riveting accounts of baseball’s most historic moments, Baseball as Road to God will enthrall baseball fans whatever their religious beliefs may be. In thought-provoking, beautifully rendered prose, Sexton elegantly demonstrates that baseball is more than a game, or even a national pastime: It can be a road to enlightenment.

Book Synopsis Matthew Barnaby by : Matthew Barnaby
Download or read book Matthew Barnaby written by Matthew Barnaby and published by Triumph Books. This book was released on 2022-11-08 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dynamic and candid memoir by an unlikely NHL brawler In the run-up to the NHL Entry Draft in 1992, the Buffalo Sabres interviewed Matthew Barnaby. John Muckler, Buffalo's coach, asked him, "What happens at 8:05 on Saturday night in Detroit when Bob Probert asks you to fight?" When the teenager responded, "That's easy. At 8:03, I'd have already asked Probert to fight," they knew they had to draft him. Through 14 NHL seasons after that exchange, Barnaby never stopped fighting. In Unfiltered, the former right wing reflects on the adventures of a high-profile life and the determination that got him there, from getting drafted last in juniors to carving out a role for himself on each new NHL team, to discovering new joys and passions in retirement. Barnaby also opens up about the memorable hijinks, the larger-than-life hockey characters, and the very real challenges and risks that come with the sport's physicality. Both hilarious and heartrending, this is an unvarnished story of battles fought and lessons learned.

Book Synopsis Beyond the Quest to Become a Physician by : Robert E. Burke MD PhD
Download or read book Beyond the Quest to Become a Physician written by Robert E. Burke MD PhD and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2016-12-28 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a young and impoverished child, author Dr. Robert E. Burke knew his lifes purpose was to become a physician. However, no one could have predicted the tortuous path he would travel in that quest and beyond. In Beyond the Quest to Become a Physician, he provides perspective on his life as he narrates his reflections on the influences that have shaped him throughout the decades. In this memoir, Burke weaves childhood, adolescent, and other personal experiences with the latest information on brain development to provide insight as to how ones experiences influence whom that person becomes. From the moment of ones first breath, ones experiences are unique. He discusses that who one becomes is driven by the interplay of genetics, expression of those genes, and cognitive-socio-economic influences. Beyond the Quest to Become a Physician shares some challenges, knowledge, character changes, distractions, and revelations that Dr. Burke experienced. Therein he provides insight not only to the quest but also to the profession. Through his inspirational and true tales, he helps others to envision how parenting, goal-setting, perseverance, and character create the difference between success and failure.
