Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excop Tom Brado thought his life was over. His wife and three children are gone, killed by a criminal he could never catch. Once a big-city detective and devout Catholic, Tom has exiled himself away in the small town of Rocky Hills. Here he can forget his past, forget faith, and forget God, or so he thinks. For five years, life goes on like this, but it all changes one day when a priest knocks on Tom's door. He's rebuilding an old church in town and wants Tom's help. At first, Tom is not interested, but after a confrontation with the town sheriff, Tom decides to get involved with the priest after all. Initially, only wanting to use the priest for information about the sheriff, Tom gradually begins to find himself truly caring about the priest's mission and begins to find a renewed faith in God. But Tom's problems are far from over because the sheriff is still after him, and it seems no one in town will stand up to him. Tom suspects the sheriff is hiding something but doesn't know how to uncover it. Not until a man who left town many years earlier returns and offers to help Tom. Tom isn't sure if he can trust his new friend, but what choice does he have? Slowly, Tom learns how each character's past is connected and tragic, just like his. Tom also finds a new faith in God and begins to rebuild his life. But the sheriff is not giving up, and Tom's efforts lead him to a final showdown where either a corrupt sheriff will fall, or he will destroy Tom and his new friends. The town of Rocky Hills is hiding a lot more than meets the eye, and slowly, Tom begins to see his mission in life is to help it find healing and faith in God once again. But can he do it, or will a corrupt sheriff and Tom's own demons destroy him, and the rest of the town with him?

Book excerpt: “As moving as it is gripping. A winner on all fronts.”—Booklist (starred review) “Heart-pounding...This is Gross’s best work yet, with his heart and soul imprinted on every page.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Poland. 1944. Alfred Mendl and his family are brought on a crowded train to a Nazi concentration camp after being caught trying to flee Paris with forged papers. His family is torn away from him on arrival, his life’s work burned before his eyes. To the guards, he is just another prisoner, but in fact Mendl—a renowned physicist—holds knowledge that only two people in the world possess. And the other is already at work for the Nazi war machine. Four thousand miles away, in Washington, DC, Intelligence lieutenant Nathan Blum routinely decodes messages from occupied Poland. Having escaped the Krakow ghetto as a teenager after the Nazis executed his family, Nathan longs to do more for his new country in the war. But never did he expect the proposal he receives from “Wild” Bill Donovan, head of the OSS: to sneak into the most guarded place on earth, a living hell, on a mission to find and escape with one man, the one man the Allies believe can ensure them victory in the war. Bursting with compelling characters and tense story lines, this historical thriller from New York Times bestseller Andrew Gross is a deeply affecting, unputdownable series of twists and turns through a landscape at times horrifyingly familiar but still completely new and compelling.

Book excerpt: A thirty-year quest, from genes to pain-signaling neurons to people with a rare genetic disorder that makes them feel they are on fire. Two soldiers, both with wounds injuring the same nerve, show very different responses: one is disabled by neuropathic pain, unable to touch the injured limb because even the lightest contact triggers excruciating discomfort; the other notices numbness but no pain at all. Could the difference lie in their genes? In this book, described in the foreword by Nobel Laureate James Rothman as “so well written that it reads like a detective novel,” Stephen Waxman recounts the search for a gene that controls pain—a search spanning more than thirty years and three continents. The story moves from genes to pain-signaling neurons that scream when they should be silent to people with a rare genetic disorder who feel they are on fire. Waxman explains that if pain-signaling neurons are injured by trauma or disease, they can become hyperactive and send pain signals to the brain even without external stimulus. Studying the hyperactive mutant pain gene in man on fire syndrome has pointed the way to molecules that produce pain more broadly within the general population, in the rest of us. Waxman's account of the many steps that led to discovery of the pain gene tells the story behind the science, of how science happens.

Book excerpt: An intellectual history of man's most elusive yet coveted goal. Today, we think of happiness as a natural right, but people haven't always felt this way. Historian McMahon argues that our modern belief in happiness is a recent development, the product of a revolution in human expectations carried out since the eighteenth century. He investigates that fundamental transformation by synthesizing two thousand years of politics, culture, and thought. In ancient Greek tragedy, happiness was considered a gift of the gods. During the Enlightenment men and women were first introduced to the novel prospect that they could--in fact should--be happy in this life as opposed to the hereafter. This recognition of happiness as a motivating ideal led to its consecration in the Declaration of Independence. McMahon then shows how our modern search continues to generate new forms of pleasure, but also, paradoxically, new forms of pain.--From publisher description.

Book excerpt: An automobile accident started Ken Start's fifteen-year prescription drug addiction cycle. Taking handfuls of pills off and on during the day, he was often high, passed out, or throwing up in the toilet. He did whatever it took to buy or steal what he wanted and needed the most--drugs. He never thought about those he was hurting and continued to destroy the trust once shared with his loved ones. In rehabilitation clinics, he learned how to manipulate doctors into giving him more--and better--drugs. He was living in total denial of his addiction to prescription drugs--until the whisper of suicide got louder.A Prescription for Addiction is this author's journey through a life-changing auto accident, multiple surgeries, addiction to drugs and alcohol, manipulation of medical professionals, chronic pain and the miracle of a hard fought recovery.

Book excerpt: In this buried chapter of American history, a nearly forgotten case of famed attorney Clarence Darrow comes hauntingly to the surface. In 1925 the NAACP approached Darrow to defend Ossian Sweet -- a highly respected black doctor who, after integrating an all-white neighborhood in Detroit, found himself the victim of a community attack. When Sweet and his family fought back, they were caught in a melee in which a white man was fatally shot. The trial that ensued, one of the most urgent and compelling in the nation's history, would test the basic tenets of the American Dream -- the right of a man to defend his own home. Tautly researched and harrowingly reported, One Man's Castle is an important slice of American legal history and the history of the civil rights (Kirkus Reviews).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some of the people enter into a 12-step program fit two types. Those who think they have God in their life - and as a result don't need to take the steps. Those who think God has abandoned them - and are therefore unable to take the steps. They are both mistaken. In this book, I describe how I, an atheist, adapted myself to the 12 steps and adapted the 12 steps to me. I found that the 12 steps are not rigidly written in stone but are sufficiently flexible to meet me halfway - so long as I was willing to change my behavior and cover the other half of that distance. This book is for those who have tried to address their problem with psychology, medication and/or religion yet have found they are in need of something more. After all, if an atheist can discover he has a spiritual aspect and learn how to nurture it... ... why can't you?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone wants to live a meaningful life. Long before our own day of self-help books offering twelve-step programs and other guides to attain happiness, the philosophers of ancient Greece explored the riddle of what makes a life worth living, producing a wide variety of ideas and examples to follow. This rich tradition was recast by Diogenes Laertius into an anthology, a miscellany of maxims and anecdotes, that generations of Western readers have consulted for edification as well as entertainment ever since the Lives of the Eminent Philosophers, first compiled in the third century AD, came to prominence in Renaissance Italy. To this day, it remains a crucial source for much of what we know about the origins and practice of philosophy in ancient Greece, covering a longer period of time and a larger number of figures-from Pythagoras and Socrates to Aristotle and Epicurus-than any other ancient source. This new edition of the Lives, in a faithful and eminently readable translation by Pamela Mensch, is the first rendering of the complete text into English in nearly a century. Lavishly illustrated with a vast array of artwork that attests to the profound impact of Diogenes on the Western imagination, this edition also includes detailed notes and a variety of newly commissioned essays by leading scholars that shed light on the work's historical and intellectual contexts as well as its rich legacy. The result is a capacious, fascinating, and charming compendium of ancient inspiration and instruction.
