Synopsis Misery's Mathematics by : Peter Balaam
This book reveals the strain of a moment in American cultural history that led several remarkable writers -- including Emerson, Warner, and Melville -- to render the stark rupture of loss in innovative ways. Pushing Protestant culture's sense of loss into secular terrain, these three key writers rejected Calvinist and sentimental models of bereavement, creating instead the compensations of a mature American literature whose 'originality' stemmed from its capacity to mourn the loss of a common culture and, through such mourning, to assent to new social and cultural realities. Balaam locates this appeal to 'reality' in the analogies antebellum writers drew between their experience of bereavement, and the experiences of uncertainty and disillusionment, that followed the revolutions in science, the winding down of creedal systems and the economic instability typifying the pre-Civil War era.

Synopsis Lords of Strategy by : Walter Kiechel
Imagine, if you can, the world of business - without corporate strategy. Remarkably, fifty years ago that's the way it was. Businesses made plans, certainly, but without understanding the underlying dynamics of competition, costs, and customers. It was like trying to design a large-scale engineering project without knowing the laws of physics. But in the 1960s, four mavericks and their posses instigated a profound shift in thinking that turbocharged business as never before, with implications far beyond what even they imagined. In The Lords of Strategy, renowned business journalist and editor Walter Kiechel tells, for the first time, the story of the four men who invented corporate strategy as we know it and set in motion the modern, multibillion-dollar consulting industry: Bruce Henderson, founder of Boston Consulting Group Bill Bain, creator of Bain & Company Fred Gluck, longtime Managing Director of McKinsey & Company Michael Porter, Harvard Business School professor Providing a window into how to think about strategy today, Kiechel tells their story with novelistic flair. At times inspiring, at times nearly terrifying, this book is a revealing account of how these iconoclasts and the organizations they led revolutionized the way we think about business, changed the very soul of the corporation, and transformed the way we work.

THE TRUTH COULD RUIN HER In Manda Collins's Why Lords Lose Their Hearts, Perdita, the widowed Duchess of Ormonde, keeps a dangerous secret-the truth of how her brutish husband died. But a mysterious avenger seems to know it, too, and when anonymous threats turn into public attacks, there's only one friend she can turn to for help-her husband's former secretary, Lord Archer Lisle. The man who witnessed her every heartache. The kind of man whose love she can only dream of ... WILL HIS LOVE SAVE HER? The youngest of the Duke of Pemberton's five sons, Lord Archer Lisle is used to waiting his turn.

But the good-natured Archer can be dangerous when crossed-and he'll do anything to keep the woman he's adored for so long safe in his arms...

Synopsis The Lords of Discipline by : Pat Conroy
“The Lords of Discipline is, simply, an American classic.” -- Larry King The Lords of Discipline is a novel about coming of age, brotherhood, betrayal, and a man’s forging of his own personal code of honor. Will McLean, a senior on the cadets’ honor court, is an outsider by nature: a basketball star at a school that prizes military prowess above athletics, a military man in training who dares to question the escalating Vietnam war. And yet his greatest struggle will be with the corrupt institution of which he is a part. Rich in humor and suspense, abounding in a rare honesty and generosity of feeling, this novel established Pat Conroy as one of the strongest fictional voices in a generation. “A work of enormous power, passion, humor, and wisdom.” – Washington Star “God preserve Pat Conroy.” – Boston Globe

Synopsis The Christ of God by : Beatrice Francis Carey
If our lives are built on the foundation of the Word of GOD, it will be that we will seek Him more and more. We will want to honor Him in as many venues as possible. I think if Jesus, the Christ of GOD, was here today, He would be using every platform available to declare His Word. Jesus lives through His Word, so the more it is honored and declared, the more He is glorified. For the most part, GOD'S Word has been ignored lately. When this great country of ours was founded by Christian fathers, the Bible was the textbook children learned to read out of at school. Then we became too prideful and sophisticated to keep Christ central. We started relying on ourselves and our inventions and strayed from our first love. As Hosea rightly proclaimed, "Thou hast gone a whoring from thy GOD." We have "cast off the thing that is good and are deeply corrupted." He continues his rebuke, warning Israel of GOD'S wrath. It is the same for us today. GOD will visit us for our sins, and our "glory shall fly away as a bird" (Hos. 9:11). The message is always the same: return unto your Maker. We are like children following every pied piper on jump street. Hopefully, with more chapters on our King and Savior Jesus Christ, we will flee to His open arms We do not want to hear "The glory is departed," not from our country or any country. No, we want the King's glory to rain down upon us. Hosea's beautiful words remind us, "According to their pasture, so were they filled. They were filled, and their heart was exalted. Therefore, have they forgotten Me. O Israel, thou hast destroyed thyself but in Me is thine help. I will be thy King. Where is any other that may save thee?" (Hos. 13:6, 9, 10).
