Editorial: Andrews McMeel Publishing, LLC

Sinopsis

The author of Making Sense of It All and Plato’s Lemonade Stand offers a roadmap to help readers make the most of their daily lives.

Throughout the ages, plenty of people have written and spoken about success and excellence. But leave it to contemporary philosopher and popular business speaker Tom Morris to gather the best of it into a universal tool kit for achieving nearly any goal. From a clear CONCEPTION of what we want, to a stubborn CONSISTENCY in pursuing our vision, to a CAPACITY to enjoy the process, The Art of Achievement outlines a simple framework that will lead readers down a road of excellence. Peppered with quotes from great thinkers and successful people, such as Plato, Aristotle, Einstein, and Churchill, The Art of Achievement helps readers map out new paths to better health, greater efficiency, and deeper satisfaction.

“As with those of all great philosophers, Tom’s words of wisdom are timeless. He conveys ancient wisdom with energy and humor and brings practical philosophy into today’s world of business—with huge impact.” —John Dillon, chairman and CEO, International Paper

“The Art of Achievement is an exciting book that can help you and your business. It is full of valuable ideas that can propel you to a life of true significance.” —Bruce L. Hammonds, COO, MBNA America Bank, N.A.

“Some of the best advice I could give my two children is to read The Art of Achievement. This is more than a book about success in business—it is really about success in life. It is powerful, thought provoking, and exhilarating to read. If you have never before been exposed to Tom Morris’s 7Cs of Success, this book will change your life.” —Jim Smith, president and CEO, Aurora Foods

“In his book True Success, Tom Morris taught me the meaning of the word enthusiasm and its full meaning and power in daily life. That alone was enough to make me a lifelong fan. Now, in his new book, The Art of Achievement, he’s done even more—actually changed my life. I feel as if I was just on the verge of making a momentous leap in my life, and his book iced it for me. Now I am going for it!”—Steve Leveen, president and cofounder, Levenger

Tropical Kiss

May McGoldrick, Jan Coffey

 
A SUMMER IN ARUBA, ON THE BEACH, IN THE SUN–WHAT ELSE COULD A GIRL WANT?
SUMMER ROMANCE, OF COURSE!
Imagine spending your entire summer vacation on the beautiful island of Aruba. Who could ask for anything more? Well, for Morgan Callahan, spending her entire summer in Aruba with the father, she hardly knows, is barely anything to look forward to. In fact, she is dreading the next few months.
 
Nonetheless, she is in for the time of her life! From secret operatives to finding romance. Morgan is in for some international intrigue!
 
"This breezy romance captures the ups and downs of teenage emotions without burdening readers with heavy drama. The setting is beautifully but simply described, the plot moves swiftly, the romance is just this side of hot, and the danger is scary. Suggest this to teens looking for a fun beach read."

Evolution Is Wrong - A Radical...

Erich von Däniken

A Fascinating Exploration on Why the Darwinists’ Theory No Longer Explains Everything
There was once a set of ideas called the theory of evolution, conceived by clever people and confirmed by countless scientists. Then people discovered the electron microscope. This made it possible to make the molecules within the cell visible, and suddenly questions about evolution arose that were not possible before. Which force actually bundles the atoms in the right order? What moves the molecular chains into the correct position? How did the first living unit within the cell actually come about? How does inheritance work, how does information pass on to the next generation? Did humans descend only and exclusively from primates—as Charles Darwin and countless other great minds assumed—or did additional “engines” intervene in evolution?
Today it is clear: countless questions can no longer be answered with the previous theory of evolution. There is a form of life called “Blob” (Physarum polycephalum). The “thing” has neither eyes nor ears, neither a mouth nor a nose or even a brain. Nevertheless, it takes in food, overcomes obstacles by the shortest route and exchanges information with other “blobs.” The “blob” contradicts any evolutionary thought that one develops from the other. Or the “gastric-brooding frogs” (Rheobatrachus) found in Australia. They hatch their young in the stomach. Impossible in a slow, evolutionary process.
Everywhere there are characteristics of animals that do not want to fit into the theory of evolution anywhere. And man? Are we really the most adapted life-form on this planet? Today, more and more scientists who contradict the previous theory of evolution speak out. The theory fits the changes within the species, but it can no longer be reconciled with the inner workings of the cell. Some other influence that has so far escaped us is affecting evolution. It is called “Intelligent Design.” Intelligent planning is suspected behind this. Anyone or anything—a spirit of the universe? Aliens?—could be behind this planning.
Erich von Däniken uses countless examples to demonstrate the impossibility of the previous evolutionary idea. He quotes scientists who argue against the previous teaching, but also those who defend it. Unfortunately, established science still refuses to look at discrepancies and holes in the theory of evolution, even though it is quite obvious that there is more going on with regard to the development of all species, as well as human culture, than could be explained by the theory of evolution alone.
