This book was released on 2013-06-06 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A how-to book written from the perspective of an older brother giving helpful and 'real-talk' advice to a younger brother about to enter college concerning everything college life including: How to Handle a Roommate, How to Network, How to Meet Girls, How to Study, How to be Organized, How to get an A in Every Class, How to Stay Happy, How to Stay Focused, and How to be Successful in all Aspects of College Life. This book is first hand advice from Jake Carpenter-Thompson who graduated with a perfect 4.0 GPA and Summa Cum Laude from his undergraduate university and went on to attend a prestigious MD/PhD program. This is hardcore straightforward advice from someone who has been there and done all that you or your friend/family member wants to accomplish in college. Get honest, straight forward VALUABLE advice from someone who has firsthand experience and knowhow. A must have book for any student at any level. This book is not written above you, or below you but rather it is written right at you. A tested and proven method to get an A in every class and to graduate ranked number one. This book will make college life enjoyable, amazing and easy for anyone who takes the time to read this short simple straightforward book. Jake said "Look this book could have been 300+ pages, but as a student myself, I do not want to be spending weeks trying to read through a book about college when I should be out there actually being a part of college. That is why I thought it was very important to keep the book short, sweet and jam-packed with all the critical, most important information students need so they can read the book in one afternoon then use the knowledge practically in college life." That is one of the major features of this book that sets it apart from those other so called college guides (more like time drains). The second major factor that sets this book apart is that all the information comes from Jake Carpenter-Thompson, a student that graduated with a perfect 4.0 in undergraduate earning the coveted title Summa Cum Laude, and is now enrolled in a prestigious MD/PhD program getting his medical tuition paid for by the university. If you want great advice that has been tried and proven, this book is the source to get it from. Think of it like this, if you want to be a movie star who would you rather talk to, a non-famous person who thinks they can help you because they have heard about how to be a movie star, or would you rather find out from a bonafide starlet. That is what this book is all about, information directly from Jake who has gotten a 4.0 in undergrad and gotten into a prestigious MD/PhD program.

Book excerpt: The Elements of Academic Success is the most powerful academic self-help book published in the United States in recent years. It was inspired by The Elements of Style, the legendary book by Professor William Strunk, Jr. and E. B. White, and it is formatted the same way, for speed and ease of use. There are 351 numbered topic sections in 10 chapters that cover everything a student will face in college. All 351 are in an index in the back for fast viewing. The things a student needs will jump out at him/her. "I am not Albert Einstein," writes author Gene Kizer, Jr. "but I consistently made 'A's at one of the finest liberal arts colleges in the country, the College of Charleston, in Charleston, SC. I was ON FIRE to graduate magna cum laude and I was going to succeed or die." Says Kizer: I developed HIGHLY EFFECTIVE skills and techniques that helped me make "A"s in nearly everything, but my attitude was KEY. Attitude is the only thing in life a person has total control over. Your attitude will bring you success and happiness, or bring you misery. Readers of this book will absorb my proven techniques and aggressive NOT-GOING-TO-BE-DENIED attitude. That attitude will help them excel in college, and in life.

Book excerpt: YOUR REAL FRESHMAN ORIENTATION GUIDE After years of standardized tests, group projects, community service, and high school woes, you’ve finally made it to college. So, what now? Answering the all-too-familiar groan “I wish I’d known that as a freshman,” a prof, a dean, and a recent grad distill more than fifty years of expertise at top colleges into this crash-course guide to success. Proving that it matters less where you go than what you accomplish while you’re there, they reveal secrets that most undergrads learn the hard way (if at all), such as how to impress professors, live with roommates, select the best courses, plan your major, prepare for life in the real world, and more. College is a huge investment of time, money, and yourself. Getting the Best Out of College is essential to making the most of that investment.

Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race,” a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of black women and men—bodies exploited through slavery and segregation, and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion. What is it like to inhabit a black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden? Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’s attempt to answer these questions in a letter to his adolescent son. Coates shares with his son—and readers—the story of his awakening to the truth about his place in the world through a series of revelatory experiences, from Howard University to Civil War battlefields, from the South Side of Chicago to Paris, from his childhood home to the living rooms of mothers whose children’s lives were taken as American plunder. Beautifully woven from personal narrative, reimagined history, and fresh, emotionally charged reportage, Between the World and Me clearly illuminates the past, bracingly confronts our present, and offers a transcendent vision for a way forward.

Book excerpt: From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column. This book is even better. It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A radical blueprint for reinventing American higher education. America’s research universities consistently dominate global rankings but may be entrenched in a model that no longer accomplishes their purposes. With their multiple roles of discovery, teaching, and public service, these institutions represent the gold standard in American higher education, but their evolution since the nineteenth century has been only incremental. The need for a new and complementary model that offers broader accessibility to an academic platform underpinned by knowledge production is critical to our well-being and economic competitiveness. Michael M. Crow, president of Arizona State University and an outspoken advocate for reinventing the public research university, conceived the New American University model when he moved from Columbia University to Arizona State in 2002. Following a comprehensive reconceptualization spanning more than a decade, ASU has emerged as an international academic and research powerhouse that serves as the foundational prototype for the new model. Crow has led the transformation of ASU into an egalitarian institution committed to academic excellence, inclusiveness to a broad demographic, and maximum societal impact. In Designing the New American University, Crow and coauthor William B. Dabars—a historian whose research focus is the American research university—examine the emergence of this set of institutions and the imperative for the new model, the tenets of which may be adapted by colleges and universities, both public and private. Through institutional innovation, say Crow and Dabars, universities are apt to realize unique and differentiated identities, which maximize their potential to generate the ideas, products, and processes that impact quality of life, standard of living, and national economic competitiveness. Designing the New American University will ignite a national discussion about the future evolution of the American research university.

Book excerpt: #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A “searching and emotionally intimate memoir” (The New York Times) told with a candor never before undertaken by a sitting Justice. This “powerful defense of empathy” (The Washington Post) is destined to become a classic of self-invention and self-discovery. The first Hispanic and third woman appointed to the United States Supreme Court, Sonia Sotomayor has become an instant American icon. In this story of human triumph that “hums with hope and exhilaration” (NPR), she recounts her life from a Bronx housing project to the federal bench, a journey that offers an inspiring testament to her own extraordinary determination and the power of believing in oneself. Here is the story of a precarious childhood, with an alcoholic father (who would die when she was nine) and a devoted but overburdened mother, and of the refuge a little girl took from the turmoil at home with her passionately spirited paternal grandmother. But it was when she was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes that the precocious Sonia recognized she must ultimately depend on herself. She would learn to give herself the insulin shots she needed to survive and soon imagined a path to a different life. With only television characters for her professional role models, and little understanding of what was involved, she determined to become a lawyer, a dream that would sustain her on an unlikely course, from valedictorian of her high school class to the highest honors at Princeton, Yale Law School, the New York County District Attorney’s office, private practice, and appointment to the Federal District Court before the age of forty. Along the way we see how she was shaped by her invaluable mentors, a failed marriage, and the modern version of extended family she has created from cherished friends and their children. Through her still-astonished eyes, America’s infinite possibilities are envisioned anew in this warm and honest book.

Katy Milkman shows in this book that we can all be a super human' Angela Duckworth, bestselling author of Grit How to Change is a powerful, groundbreaking blueprint to help you - and anyone you manage, teach or coach - to achieve personal and professional goals, from the master of human nature and behaviour change and Choiceology podcast host Professor Katy Milkman. Award-winning Wharton Professor Katy Milkman has devoted her career to the study of behaviour change. An engineer by training, she approaches all challenges as problems to be solved and, with this mind-set, has drilled into the roadblocks that prevent us from achieving our goals and breaking unwanted behaviours. The key to lasting change, she argues, is not to set ever more audacious goals or to foster good habits but to get your strategy right. In How to Change Milkman identifies seven human impulses, or 'problems', that commonly sabotage our attempts to make positive personal and professional change. Then, crucially, instead of getting you to do battle with these impulses she shows you how to harness them and use these as driving forces to help instil new, positive behaviours - better, faster and more efficiently than you could imagine. Drawing her own original research, countless engaging case studies and practical tools throughout to help you put her ideas into action, Milkman reveals a proven, inspiring path that can take you - once and for all - from where you are today to where you want to be.
