"Legendary baseball player and manager Dusty Baker reflects on his extraordinary career in a memoir filled with powerful stories and invaluable lessons on perseverance, leadership, and living life meaningfully on the field and off. Dusty Baker walked with baseball legends and became one himself. After he signed with the Braves in 1967 at the age of eighteen against his father's wishes, no less than the great Hank Aaron promised to take Baker under his wing. Mentored by Aaron, Orlando Cepeda, and Willie Mays, Baker became a premier hitter, helping take the Dodgers to a World Series victory in 1981. He would bookend this with another championship in 2022, this time as a manager working to guide and redeem a Houston Astros team humbled by a scandal. Respected by generations across the game, Baker has come to embody the spirit of the sport -- and yet, to discuss his baseball career is only to scratch the surface of a remarkable life. Crossroads brings readers into the mind of a true original: a curious, inquisitive thinker whose deep interest in the worlds of music, wine, and business and the simpler joys of life charts a journey of success, struggle, faith, and perseverance. Baker's memoir is filled with hard-earned wisdom and a love for life so plentiful it seems to radiate from every sentence. A true American original, counting among his friends presidents and dignitaries, bluesmen and visionaries, Baker weaves a spell of life at the crossroads, where fate turns on our decisions and unexpected answers seek us out when we least expect it."-- Book jacket flap.

"How Latin American migrant workers overcame broken promises and recovered their dreams, with support from Canadian unions, to win justice in a landmark court decision. In April 2006, 42 Latin Americans landed in Vancouver to excavate tunnels for the Canada Line Skytrain. They thought they'd won the lottery with promised wages far above what they would earn at home. But the reality was miserable wages, unpaid overtime and inadequate living conditions - they worked 66 hours per week for less than $4 per hour. It was the beginning of the Canadian construction industry's reliance on migrant workers and the treatment of temporary foreign workers has made headlines ever since. Barrett, fluent in Spanish and a researcher for BC Building Trades unions, began his involvement by investigating the allegation that migrant workers were earning less than $4 per hour. He shares his unique insider perspective as he joined the team of union organizers and became a liaison between workers, union officials and lawyers throughout the court battles. The workers' resentment grew in the face of employer lies, intimidation, coercion and prejudice. Most of them came from a group of villages in central Costa Rica. They grew up together, sharing a background of poverty and hardship. These common bonds gave them the courage they needed to face fears of employer retaliation as they organized, which resulted in a successful vote for union certification, a first for temporary foreign workers in the Canadian construction industry. But their victory was short-lived and their unity was broken by a series of employer "sticks and sweeteners." But the fight for fairness continued at the BC Labour Relations Board (BCLRB) and, ultimately, at the BC Human Rights Tribunal in a race against time before the workers left Canada with the completion of the tunnels. In 2008, the tribunal delivered a triumphant decision, a landmark case in the evolving issue of global migration. Workers were awarded $2.4 million to compensate for discrimination based on country of origin; for wages, inferior accommodations, meals and expenses and injury to dignity and feelings. A Fight for Justice is an inspiring story of collective action and relationships across progressive communities in Canada and Latin America and offers a remarkable story of migrant workers successfully fighting for fairness and equality."--

"Thoughtload—not workload—is the culprit causing chaos for your team. Be the leader that creates clarity, calm, and greater capacity. In Thoughtload, New York Times bestselling author and team effectiveness advisor Liane Davey tackles today’s most pressing management challenges: over-burdened systems, burned-out teams, and declining results. However, contrary to conventional wisdom, Davey argues that the problem is not with out-sized workloads. The root cause of the madness sapping productivity in today’s offices is with our excessive thoughtload. Thoughtload is the cumulative and often overwhelming burden of increasing cognitive and emotional demands, worsened by decreasing physical and mental energy. In this brilliant, highly prescriptive guide, Davey lays out the steps for reducing thoughtload, so that you and your team feel more focused—and get more done. The process starts with you. By learning to better manage your attention, you create periods of deep concentration that lead to the outcomes you strive for, and a sense of accomplishment. By processing emotions triggered in the workplace and at home, you gain greater control of your mood and productivity. And by making informed choices about where your energy comes from (and where it goes), you connect with reliable and renewable resources that fuel you to do the things that matter most. Davey then gives you powerful tools you can use as a leader to coach your team members to manage thoughtload for themselves. Doing so, you and your team will feel more focused, less burnt out, and finally free to do more great work. Backed by science and written with the time- and energy-strapped manager in mind, Thoughtload is Liane Davey’s potent handbook for a better way to lead. Apply the strategies in this book to create calm within the chaos—so you and your team can perform, produce, and prosper."--

"On an unassuming January day in 1854, an entrepreneur named Cyrus Field was struck by an idea: if he could lay a telegraph cable across the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, thereby wiring the world for near-instantaneous communication, he was sure to bring about peace on Earth. His plan would later be described as a 'wild and visionary scheme,' the moonshot of the nineteenth century. At the time, no project like it had ever been attempted; in fact, science still lacked a universal theory of electricity. But twelve years, four spectacular-and spectacularly public-failures, and near-incalculable amounts of money, bravery, and tenacity later, the first transatlantic cable was laid, ushering in the global information age and transforming life on Earth forever. In Lightning Beneath the Sea, acclaimed author James M. Tabor weaves an unforgettable tale of radical vision, unwavering determination, and improbable triumph against the odds and wild rages of the Atlantic. The dream team Field assembled to realize the cable project included telegraph legend Samuel F. B. Morse; a young William Thompson, Lord Kelvin, called the da Vinci of his day; Michael Faraday, the father of electrical engineering; and legendary philanthropist and railway pioneer Peter Cooper, founder of the Cooper Union. Together, they battled miscalculations, freak accidents, probable corporate sabotage, and the hubris of the project's original chief electrician-a man who insisted on being called Wildman Whitehouse-while racing two rival efforts to establish telegraphic communications between continents. When it was finally done, their cable would span 2,000 miles and lie as many as 2.5 miles deep under the ocean. Today, hundreds of its descendants still carry 99 percent of the world's information through a 'world undersea web.' Deeply researched and written with verve, Lightning Beneath the Sea is the definitive account of an epoch-making achievement"--

"Since the advent of smallpox inoculation in the eighteenth century, the idea that a disease introduced to the body in some lesser, weakened form might prevent full-blown infection has been one of the greatest public health insights of the modern era, inspiring the invention of numerous vaccines and saving countless human lives. But, just as humanity acquired the god-like power to stop infectious disease in its tracks, some feared we had gone too far, leading to the skepticism that has hijacked public health discourse today.In three sweeping essays written for our current moment of scientific mistrust, Thomas Levenson searches for the origins of the most common arguments against vaccines: that they are unnatural; that they are more dangerous than the illnesses they claim to prevent; and that they are an affront to freedom. Each arose from the earliest development of particular vaccines and the campaigns to distribute them. Even as the pattern repeats, Levenson reveals how innocent that skepticism initially was and, in each case, how very human fears and questions ultimately turned into something darker, where no truth would be enough to overcome the doubt. Searing but ultimately empathetic, A Pox on Fools explores the human impulse to question and wonder--sometimes past the point at which the very act of questioning turns deadly."--

"[A]n intimate account of why Vice President JD Vance strayed from the Christianity of his youth and what led him back to faith. Communion is a spiritual exploration of what it means to be a Christian in all the seasons of life JD Vance has experienced -- as a child, a young man, a husband, a father, and a leader. Picking up in some ways where Hillbilly Elegy left off, Communion recounts how Vance's pursuit of material privileges ultimately led him into a secular wilderness. Communion reveals how Vance regained his faith and discusses his conversion to Catholicism, how his faith guides his work in public life, and how it shapes his thoughts about the future." --

Former Olympic gymnast Shawn Johnson explores the value of sticking with things--projects, hobbies, passions, relationships--in life rather than allowing your attention to be drawn by the next thing.

"A radically vulnerable and virtuosic inquiry into the pursuit of freedom and the interminable nature of struggle, from the award-winning author of What We Lose. Weaving personal reflections with piercing insight and expansive vision across nine brilliant essays, Zinzi Clemmons explores the complexities of the elusive concept of freedom. As the daughter of a South African mother and a Trinidadian American father, she recounts growing up in the largely white, affluent town of Swarthmore, Pennsylvania-and her frequent travels to Johannesburg, where the lofty promise of freedom was all around her. Coming of age amidst the euphoria of South Africa's first all-race elections, she grapples with the legacy of Nelson Mandela and the shattered hope in the wake of the Obama era. Clemmons critiques the entrenched inequalities that haunt both countries, from the tragic loss of a childhood friend to the violence that often befalls women who have the audacity to be free. In a deft mix of memoir, family history, criticism, and reportage, drawing on a vast range of material from Joan Didion to James Baldwin, political analysis and history to Clemmons's own experiences across the globe, Freedom is an incendiary exploration of race, sex, class, and inheritance. In elegiac prose, Clemmons trains her discerning eye on American institutions and mythologies, probing the bounds of liberation and autonomy to interrogate our most enduring quest--the relentless pursuit of freedom for all"--

"Long before every moment of our lives was tracked by handheld devices and cameras recording our every move, Phill Branch was under surveillance. His father was a football playing, weed smoking, Army vet tailor made for the seventies -- he was one of those guys everyone wanted to be around and that women seemed to love. Phill was different, he was... defective and his father searched for proof of this in every action until he found it. "Your teacher called. She said you be out there jumping rope with girls, that true?" It was true and Phill paid greatly for this failure at boyhood. From this he learned there were standards to be met, codes that were not to be violated and strict punishment for any deviation from your assigned position in the world. In this personal narrative, Branch reckons with patriarchy and tradition, the legacy of these social structures in Black America, and how they have molded and silenced him. Taking readers from Newark, New Jersey to Los Angeles, California, Branch writes lyrically and honestly about growing up as a queer black son to a complicated and often absent father, rigid in his ideas of masculinity. From his early experiences of inappropriate relationships with men twice his age, to his successful rebranding at Hampton University, to his rubbing shoulders with celebrities all while struggling to feed himself as a writer in Hollywood, Branch charts his complex relationship with his idea of success, perceptions of manhood, and ultimately his father. The Double Dutch Fuss recounts growing up under the heavy burden of expectation-to be a boy, to be Black, and to be queer in ways that conform to rigid, often unforgiving norms. It is about the knotted path of becoming, while navigating the always-present fear of emotional and physical violence, and the threat of isolation for simply being who you are. The heart of the book explores the cosmic pull between fathers and sons, even when bonds are fractured, and how healing those wounds can open a pathway toward freedom and wholeness. The Double Dutch Fuss is an insightful and surprisingly humorous reflection on identity, masculinity, and the quiet, radical act of choosing to exist on your own terms"-- Provided by publisher.

"Most of us learned about natural selection back in high school science class and think we understand it pretty well-or, at least, we get the basics of how it works. Many of us even have a sense of its implications for everyday life, like how we should be cautious about overusing antibiotics, but also take care to finish out a full prescription even after we're already feeling better. Yet studies show that significant misconceptions about evolution and natural selection abound, even among highly educated specialists in biology, from medical students to high school biology teachers-not to mention the rest of us. In Force of Nature, professor of biology and law Owen D. Jones shows how we misunderstand and neglect natural selection to our detriment, both missing opportunities to better achieve our goals and, sometimes, even imperiling lives and livelihoods. Ranging across the natural world and spheres of human endeavor alike, from medicine, agriculture, and AI to economics, law, and beyond, Jones demonstrates how a finer appreciation of the speed, scale, and applications of natural selection-including its influence on behavior, both human and animal-can help open new horizons in cancer treatment and space exploration; create faster machines and more maneuverable robots; design more effective, just laws; and more. We all know that evolution put us here in the first place, but Force of Nature shows how a richer understanding of it can be even more useful than we may think"-- Provided by publisher.

"An activist priest's sermons remind us that one of the first social justice frameworks was the Bible. When lifelong activist and celebrated author Maggie Helwig became an Anglican priest, she brought both her hard-earned social justice wisdom and her incomparable literary prowess to the role. Where the homily - the weekly act of taking pre-assigned sections of an ancient and sometimes cryptic biblical text and making them speak to their time, their place, their community - can easily become a rote exercise, Helwig takes the language and narrative very seriously. The homilies in this book, selected from those presented to her congregation over the last five years, talk about the Bible, and by extension, the world, through both an activist and a literary lens. 'Instructions for the End of the World' is how Helwig describes the gospels. As we live through the climate crisis and the rise of fascism around the world, Helwig's responses to the ancient texts feel urgent and necessary, reminders of hope and meaning during a time of great anxiety and fear. Whether you're religious or not, these homilies offer a basis for resistance and resources for building communities that may sustain us all."--

Thomas Jefferson has been reinvented more than perhaps any American president in history. In the nineteenth century, slavery's defenders invoked Jefferson's defense of states' rights while abolitionists drew on his anti-slavery writings in support of their cause. After the Civil War, Jefferson's reputation declined because of his association with secession and disunion, but in the twentieth century, his image soared as he came to embody the democratic values American fought for during World War II. Unsurprisingly, Jefferson's legacy has shifted yet again in the twenty-first century, effectively becoming a partisan talisman--jettisoned by the left as a plantation patriarch and repurposed by the right as an avatar of white nationalism. Dissatisfied with these political caricatures and manic swings, leading Jefferson scholar Peter S. Onuf and Francis D. Cogliano instead situate the founding father in his complicated historical context and reveal how his wisdom can be applied today. In a series of three interrelated essays, the authors paint a nuanced portrait. "Generations" elucidates how Jefferson's understanding of history shaped his responses to the major problems of his time. "My Country" delves into how he conceived of the American homeland, and "The People" unravels how Jefferson articulated a new national identity in the Declaration of Independence.

"From Soundgarden's humble beginnings manifesting grunge in Seattle's beer-soaked punk clubs to their revered status today as rock icons, the band's journey has been nothing short of extraordinary.

"After a traumatic birth nearly claimed his wife's life, anesthesiologist and intensive care physician Christopher Choukalas should have felt grateful. His twin daughters were healthy, his wife had survived, and they had started a family. But instead of joy, Choukalas found himself spiraling-spending long evenings in the garage, unable to face the chaos and emotional strain inside his home. Caught between caring for his wife, deciphering the needs of his newborns, and confronting painful childhood memories, his world began to unravel. Despite clear signs-racing thoughts, anxiety, sleeplessness, panic attacks, and emotional distance from his children-Choukalas failed to recognize he was suffering from a serious condition. Like many men, he internalized his pain, hoping it was just the "baby blues" and would fade with time. His turning point came when his wife, exhausted with his behavior and "checked-outness," urged him to seek help. Even though he's a doctor, he had missed the fact that he ticked off every symptom of paternal depression. Through intensive therapy, medication, and the support of a fathers' group, Choukalas began to understand his need for control and the lingering hurt from his own father's absence. Slowly, he rebuilt his connection with his wife and children and found healing. Even the Darkest Night, Choukalas's powerful memoir, sheds light on the hidden struggles of fatherhood. With raw honesty and emotional insight, it challenges the silence and stigma surrounding men's mental health, especially in the early years of parenting. A much-needed voice and new understanding for fathers navigating love, identity, and healing in the shadows of expectation"-- Provided by publisher.

The American Dream at its best is an ethical ideal and a moral compass. If respected and sustained, it can guide the United States through Trump 2.0. Anchored in the US Constitution, Saving the American Dream features meditations for dark times. Meditations are intentional acts of focused attention.

How may inquiry about the American Dream advance the reflection and action needed now to support and defend the Constitution of the United States? Saving the American Dream is a journey that goes where such questions lead. Its fundamental premise is that individuals moved to communal action by warned awareness and committed resistance are indispensable to meet challenges that grow by the day. Guidance from reliable American writers--philosophers, historians, novelists, poets, essayists, religious thinkers--maps the way.

"A miracle unfolded on October 10, 1944, at Auschwitz. Amidst the gas chambers and crematoria, a ragtag group of Jewish boys, aged thirteen to seventeen, were marched naked into Crematorium 5, their names already crossed out in Nazi ledgers as "gestorben," or "dead." They would soon be put to death in the infamous gas chambers. But just moments before Zyklon B pellets were released, fate intervened: three German officers arrived on motorbikes and ordered their evacuation, selecting them to unload a consignment of potatoes from Greece. This is their astonishing story. Miracle: The Boys Who Escaped the Gas Chamber in Auschwitz illuminates their incredible journey from the brink of death to lives of profound purpose and resilience. Experience the raw emotion, the struggle for survival, and the enduring power of faith amidst unimaginable cruelty. These boys--who survived concentration camps, death marches, and constant dehumanization--rebuilt their families and became living testaments to hope. Through archival research, survivor testimonies, and haunting personal accounts, Miracle gives voice to a chapter of Holocaust history that was nearly lost. It reveals how a single twist of fate and the strength of the human spirit changed the course of so many lives. Miracle is more than a historical account; it is a memorial of tears, defiance, and unimaginable dignity, urging us to remember and carry forward their legacy for a better future. Their courage echoes through time, reminding us that even in history's darkest moments, the light of humanity can prevail." --

"By twenty-five, Vijay Gupta had lived several lifetimes: He played Carnegie Hall at eight years old, studied at Juilliard and Yale before most had finished high school, joined the Los Angeles Philharmonic at nineteen, gave a celebrated TED Talk seen by millions, and launched a nonprofit. But behind the accolades was estrangement, addiction, and a private unraveling. 'Restrung' is Gupta's unflinching memoir of breaking apart and remaking a self. It begins with a boy raised between the strict devotion of Bengali immigrant parents and the ruthless demands of the conservatory. It follows him through the shimmering world of elite orchestras into the depths of burnout and family collapse and ultimately toward an unexpected reawakening-where he discovered that the music he'd spent his life studying was seen not as a curio of high culture or mere entertainment but a lifeline of connection-most vividly in Skid Row, where people living through addiction, homelessness, and incarceration heard it as survival itself. There, audiences spoke to how they saw their own lives reflected in the stories of composers too often frozen into marble busts: the rage of Beethoven, the fragility of Schumann's mind, the alienation of Bartók, the plight of Handel-who wrote Messiah bankrupt, ill, and broken, yet transformed despair into an enduring Hallelujah. Pico Iyer, in his foreword, calls 'Restrung' as 'a rich and astonishing feast of stories' told with 'vivid precision, unflinching candor, and heart'-a book that unsettles assumptions about success while illuminating how art restores not just audiences but artists themselves"--
