The Young Pitcher
High school senior Ken Ward is on top of the world--he's popular, a somebody. But as a freshman at Wayne University, Ken quickly discovers he's a nobody who's treated like dirt by upperclassmen. When Ken can't stand the harassment anymore, he bursts out of his gloom by slugging a sophomore bully--who turns out to be captain of the varsity baseball team. It looks as if Ken's dream of making that team has gone down the drain... until in a moment of wild excitement he proves himself with, of all things, a potato! And Ken keeps on proving himself until the last out of a heart-pounding league championship game.

The Invention of Medicine
Medicine is one of the great fields of achievement of the Ancient Greeks. Hippocrates is celebrated worldwide as the father of medicine and the Hippocratic Oath is admired throughout the medical profession as a founding statement of ethics and ideals. In the fifth century BC, Greeks even wrote of medicine as a newly discovered craft they had invented.
Robin Lane Fox's remarkable book puts their invention of medicine in a wider context, from the epic poems of Homer to the first doctors known to have been active in the Greek world. He examines what we do and do not know about Hippocrates and his Oath and the many writings that survive under his name. He then focuses on seven core texts which give the case histories of named individuals, showing that books 1 and 3 belong far earlier than previously recognised. Their re-dating has important consequences for the medical awareness of the great Greek dramatists and the historians Herodotus and Thucydides. Robin Lane Fox pieces together the doctor's thinking from his terse observations and relates it in a new way to the history of Greek prose and ideas.
This original and compelling book opens windows onto many other aspects of the classical world, from women's medicine to street-life, empire, art, sport, sex and even botany. It fills a dark decade in a new way and carries readers along an extraordinary journey form Homer's epics to the grateful heirs of the Greek case histories, first in the Islamic world and then in early modern Europe.
Amazing Everything - The Art of Scott C
With equal parts style, humor, and insight, Scott C. has delighted an international fanbase with his unique watercolor paintings, illustrations, and drawings. Amazing Everything: The Art of Scott C. is his first monograph, the best and most imaginative works of art in his emerging career. Admirers and collectors seek out Scott C.'s appearances at such diverse venues as Comic-Con in San Diego and Galerie Arludik in Paris to see his unusual depictions of pop-culture subjects and original creations: Victorian-era dinosaurs at high tea; lumberjacks and their sometimes-awkward relationship with trees; and ninjas lounging in their living room at home. These and other reflections of Scott C.'s artistic vision have kept him on the radar of such pop-culture trend outlets as Flavorpill and Hi-Fructose.

The Lost Stradivarius
The Lost Stradivarius (1895), by J. Meade Falkner, is a short novel of ghosts and the evil that can be invested in an object, in this case an extremely fine Stradivarius violin. After finding the violin of the title in a hidden compartment in his college rooms, the protagonist, a wealthy young heir, becomes increasingly secretive as well as obsessed by a particular piece of music, which seems to have the power to call up the ghost of its previous owner. Roaming from England to Italy, the story involves family love, lordly depravity, and the tragedy of obsession, all conveyed in a "high" serious tone not uncommon in late Victorian literature. Preceding M.R. James's ghost stories by several years, it has been called the novel James might have written, had he written novels.

The Black Cat
"The Black Cat" is a short story by Edgar Allan Poe. It was first published in the August 19, 1843, edition of The Saturday Evening Post. It is a study of the psychology of guilt, often paired in analysis with Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart". In both, a murderer carefully conceals his crime and believes himself unassailable, but eventually breaks down and reveals himself, impelled by a nagging reminder of his guilt.

The Art of Stillness - Adventures in Going Nowhere
Part of the TED series: The Art of Stillness
In this age of constant movement and connectedness, when so many of us are all over the place, perhaps staying in one place - and locating everything we need for peace and happiness there - is a more exciting prospect, and a greater necessity than ever before.
Through his extensive interviews with creative geniuses of our day, as well as historical records and his own life experience, acclaimed author Pico Iyer paints a picture of why so many have found such richness in stillness and how - from Marcel Proust to Blaise Pascal to Phillipe Starck - they've gathered such rare and exhilarating fruits there. He explores the counter-intuitive truth: the more ways we have to connect, the more many of us seem desperate to unplug.
In both The Art of Stillnessand his captivating TEDTALK Where is Home?, Iyer reflects that this is perhaps the reason why more and more people - even those with no religious commitment - seem to be turning to yoga, or meditation, or tai chi. These aren't New Age fads so much as ways to connect with what could be called the wisdom of an earlier age. There is even a growing trend toward observing an "Internet sabbath" every week, turning off online connections from Friday night to Monday morning, so as to try to revive those ancient customs known as family meals and conversation.

The Daughter of Auschwitz
AN INCREDIBLE STORY OF COURAGE, RESILIENCE AND SURVIVAL
Tova Friedman was one of the youngest people to emerge from Auschwitz. After surviving the liquidation of the Jewish ghetto in Central Poland where she lived as a toddler, Tova was five when she and her parents were sent to a Nazi labour camp, and almost six when she and her mother were forced into a packed cattle truck and sent to Auschwitz II, also known as the Birkenau extermination camp, while her father was transported to Dachau.
During six months of incarceration in Birkenau, Tova witnessed atrocities that she could never forget, and experienced numerous escapes from death. She is one of a handful of Jews to have entered a gas chamber and lived to tell the tale.
As Nazi killing squads roamed Birkenau before abandoning the camp in January 1945, Tova and her mother hid among corpses. After being liberated by the Russians they made their way back to their hometown in Poland. Eventually Tova's father tracked them down and the family was reunited.
In The Daughter of Auschwitz, Tova immortalizes what she saw, to keep the story of the Holocaust alive, at a time when it is in danger of fading from memory. She has used those memories that have shaped her life to honour the victims. Written with award-winning former war reporter Malcolm Brabant, this is an extremely important book. Brabant's thorough research has helped Tova recall her experiences in searing detail. Together they have painstakingly recreated Tova's extraordinary story about one of the worst ever crimes against humanity.

To Please The Billionaire
The Annie Hill was never appreciated by boys. She was hard working, self-reliant and didn’t need a man. But lonely and venerable one night, she is approached by Jarvis. His wealthy employer wants to hire her as a dinner companion in exchange for a penthouse, a salary and a 5 figure wardrobe stipend. It’s an opportunity Annie can’t pass. But when Annie’s handsome, powerful benefactor offers her everything she could ever desire in exchange for her acceptance of a mysteriously gift, Annie finds herself in a secret world of unimaginable sexual pleasures, that changes her life forever. Serving the Billionaire:Rachel’s heart stopped when he entered the restaurant. He was rugged and sexy. His smile lit the room, but the darkness in his eyes hinted to more. Drawn her into his sports car, he sped her away to a world of luxury and privilege leaving all of her troubles behind. Rachel breathed in his passion like a drug. To leave him was like death; but to be with him was to dance with the demons. As He Desires:Rebecca Prichard wasn’t looking for love. She wasn’t looking for a good time. What she wanted more than anything was a job. But nearly broken by her difficulties, she made a deal with herself; at her friend’s wedding, she would become someone else. It was her uninhibited alter ego that first saw HIM. His sensual green eyes and the dark mystery that surrounded him tore open a crack in her. Craving his touch like a drug, she followed him into his limousine. And entering a world of dangerous sex, wealth and privilege, Rebecca’s life would change forever. Rescued by the Billionaire:Raven knows two things for sure: She stands in the dark, naked and bound by the wrists; and there is a powerful naked man with her seducing her mind as much as her body. Needing to know how she got there, Raven relives her life and death journey as a mysterious man from her past rescued her from a car crash off of a mountain cliff during the worst snow storm in 100 years. Unsure of who is now seducing her will, she must piece together her journey there in order to discover who she should run towards and who she must escape.
The Billionaire's Indecent Proposal:How many times have you looked around an airport terminal and wondered if one of those strangers could be “the one”? Sophie Specter didn’t have to wonder. When she lowered her magazine, there he was. He was tantalizingly mysterious and his devilish charm was inescapable. He would have been perfect except for the way he picked up on the things that a beautiful, small town girl tried to hide. But the heat between two gorgeous strangers is hard to ignore. In this moment, the secrets they both had didn’t have to matter. And staring into his sultry eyes for the first time, she could not have guessed how her life would change next.

Jasmine Cameron didn’t have enough experience in love to know what she didn’t want, but she knew what she did want; it was the sea swept, mysterious stranger whose steely eyes ignited her body and robbed her of her will.
