Synopsis Look, No Hands! by : Brian Gault
Brian Gault is one of the 450 survivors of the 'miracle-drug' Thalidomide's exposure to the British market in the mid-twentieth century. To the shock of his parents, he was born with no arms. Otherwise physically and mentally fit and able, Brian has struggled throughout his life to overcome the restrictions society has tried to place on him, beginning with the cumbersome prosthetic arms of his childhood, which he had to sabotage to escape wearing them! Brian's story is lively, funny, challenging and moving and centres around his call to Christian faith. With a foreword by Joni Eareckson Tada.

When Kent Bell was born on Valentine's Day in 1965, he was not expected to live even twenty-four hours. Now, forty-nine years later, he just keeps going and going. In Look Ma, No Hands, No Legs Either, he narrates his life story, beginning with being born without arms or legs. In this memoir, Bell tells what it's like living and thriving with a disability. From his birth, to moving regularly with his military family, to attending school and college, to accomplishing more in life than an average person, he shares the ups and downs of almost fifty years. Look Ma, No Hands, No Legs Either details how Bell, a sports enthusiast, became a scorekeeper for many activities, from Little League to the pros, including being the first disabled person to be an official scorekeeper in the 2004 USA Olympic basketball event. Bell's story shows how everyday he faces insurmountable obstacles to the most simple of activities. Through fortitude and perseverance he has achieved his dreams, and he has also been proactive in working on committees and task forces to change the laws for people with disabilities. With detail and emotion, Look Ma, No Hands, No Legs Either communicates Bell's determination of courage, passion, strength, endurance, integrity, and most of all, a positive attitude.

Synopsis Reaching Out with No Hands by : Lisa Carver
John Lennon once described her as “the world's most famous unknown artist: everybody knows her name, but nobody knows what she does.” Many people are aware of her art, and her music has always split crowds, from her caterwauling earliest work to her later dance numbers, but how many people have looked at Yoko Ono's decades-spanning career and varied work in total and asked the simple question, “Is it any good?” From her earliest work with the Fluxus group and especially her relationship with John Cage, through her enigmatic pop happenings (where she met John Lennon), her experimental films, cryptic books, conceptual art, and her long recording career that has vacillated between avant-garde noise and proto-new wave, earning the admiration of other artists while generally confusing the public at large who often sees her only in the role of the widow Lennon, Reaching Out with No Hands is the first serious, critical, wide-ranging look at Yoko Ono the artist and musician. A must-read for art and music fans interested in going beyond the stereotyped observations of Yoko as a Lennon hanger-on or inconsequential avant noisemaker.

Synopsis The Writer with No Hands by : Matthew Alford
"I acquired a file no one had ever seen... an autopsy report for a Hollywood screenwriter that alleged murder. I was an unemployed PhD graduate and failed comedian, living in a flooded house with two small children and my ex-wife. So it seemed rational to find conclusive proof that this man had been murdered in a staged road accident by hit-men from the US government. I left my home in rural England with a cameraman in tow to retrace the screenwriter's final moments in California. If this death was really an assassination, I was in increasing danger. But if it was just a stupid accident ... God... don't let it be that." Set against a political backdrop marked by war, sex and blackmail, The Writer with No Hands unveils the never-told true story of Hollywood's forgotten rebel, Gary Devore, and Dr. Alford's search for the brutal truth in a world where everyone lies for a living. This is the prestige edition of the book, with large font and trim size for easier reading. The smaller edition the book is also available, though, for a significantly cheaper price.
