Your vision and mission statements should live in practice as well as print, and permeate through every aspect of your organization.

Triumph and Tragedy in Mudville A Lifelong Passion for Baseball
Type : epub |
Size : 1.27 MB |
English |
Descirption: Science meets sport in this vibrant collection of baseball essays by the late evolutionary biologist.Among Stephen Jay Gould's many gifts was his ability to write eloquently about baseball, his great passion. Through the years, the renowned paleontologist published numerous essays on the sport; these have now been collected in a volume alive with the candor and insight that characterized all of Gould's writing. Here are his thoughts on the complexities of childhood streetball and the joys of opening day; tributes to Mickey Mantle, Babe Ruth, and lesser-knowns such as deaf-mute centerfielder "Dummy" Hoy; and a frank admission of the contradictions inherent in being a lifelong Yankees fan with Red Sox season tickets. Gould also deftly applies the tools of evolutionary theory to the demise of the .400 hitter, the Abner Doubleday creation myth, and the improbability of Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak. This book is a delight, an essential addition to Gould's remarkable legacy, and a fitting tribute to his love for the game.

Cured The Life Changing Science of Spontaneous Healing
Type : epub |
Size : 1.23 MB |
English |
Descirption: When it comes to disease, who beats the odds - and why?
When it comes to spontaneous healing, "miracles," and unexplained cures, skepticism abounds. Doctors are taught that the spontaneous remission of disease is a total fluke, and as a result they don't study those cases or take them into account when conducting research or treating patients.
Enter Dr. Jeff Rediger, who has spent over 15 years exploring the idea of spontaneous healing. With both a medical degree and a degree in theology, Dr. Rediger was uniquely positioned to take seriously the many reports of miraculous remission that were coming across his desk. His journey to study these cases has taken him from the walls of America's top hospitals to healing centers in Brazil - and along the way he's begun to uncover the answers behind the question of who beats the odds, and why.
Dr. Rediger's research has revealed the patterns behind healing for the first time, and in CURED he lays...

One Day You'll Burn by Joseph Schneider

Descirption: "A brilliant first novel. Joseph Schneider's contemporary writing evokes some of Hollywood's most classic crime stories, from Chinatown to LA Confidential." -Dick Wolf, creator of Law & Order
Detective Tully Jarsdel may not be a typical LAPD cop-but he's the only one who can solve this case
A body so badly burned that it could be mistaken for a movie prop... except for the smell. That's not something the LAPD finds lying on the street every day. And when Detective Tully Jarsdel is called to the scene, it's clear to him that something about the placement of the corpse is intentional, even ritualistic. Jarsdel's former career in academia seems to finally be coming in handy, rather than serving merely as material for jokes from his partner, Morales.
But nothing Jarsdel learned in school can prepare him for the deep evil behind this case, which appears to be as hopeless as it is violent. As Jarsdel and Morales attempt to settle...
