This Other Eden
From the winner of the Pulitzer Prize, a profoundly moving story of an island refuge, and a community of outcasts living on borrowed time. A novel inspired by the true story of the once racially integrated Malaga Island off the coast of Maine, by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Tinkers. In 1792, formerly enslaved Benjamin Honey and his Irish wife, Patience, discovered an island where they could make a life together.
More than a century later, the Honeys' descendants remain there, with an eccentric, diverse band of neighbors- a pair of sisters raising three Penobscot orphans; Theophilus and Candace Larks and their nocturnal brood; the prophetic Zachary Hand To God Proverbs, a Civil War veteran who carves Biblical images in a hollow tree. Then comes the intrusion of "civilization"- eugenics-minded state officials determine to cleanse" the island, and a missionary schoolteacher selects one light-skinned boy to save. The rest will succumb to the authorities' institutions or cast themselves on the waters in a new Noah's Ark.
Full of lyricism and power, This Other Eden explores the hopes and dreams and resilience of those seen not to fit a world brutally intolerant of difference.

How to Watch Basketball Like a Genius
A brilliant, entertaining deconstruction of basketball, drawing on the expertise of board-game creators, winemakers, therapists, and more Basketball is the second-most popular sport in the world-an insanely complicated game built on a combination of athleticism, craftiness, rules, intangibles, and superstardom. However, while it's enjoyable to watch, the real reason it works is because it's a game of culture, art, and all the things that make us human.How to Watch Basketball Like a Genius deconstructs the sport from top to bottom and then puts it back together again, detailing its intricacies through reporting and dozens of interviews with experts. These experts, however, are a diverse group: wine critics weighing in on LeBron's ability to delegate on the fly, magicians analyzing Kyrie Irving's mystifying dribbling techniques, SpaceX rocket scientists breaking down Steph Curry's deadeye three-point shooting. Every chapter treats basketball to a multi-disciplined study that adventures far beyond the lines of the court, examining key elements of the sport from some surprising and revealing angles. There's a reason it has conquered the world, and every game is a chance to learn about pop culture, fashion, history, science, art, and anything else that bounces our way.

Why Drugs and Vaccines Don't Work
The book highlights the conceptual flaw in the drug-based approach to healthcare, which only damages health and even leads to pandemics. Most drugs are designed to chemically block the normal function of healthy aspects of the body, in an attempt to conceal symptoms. In the process, they also accidentally chemically block the main organs from working normally, which is what produces most adverse effects and prevents the patient from ever returning to full health.
The book compares the drug-based approach with natural healing. Certain branches of natural healing work by returning the organs to normal function, which clears all symptoms and produces a genuine cure; whereas the drug-based approach has no ability to return an organ to normal function. This is why mainstream healthcare often finds itself unable to properly treat many common conditions. In contrast, natural healing successfully treats those same conditions by simply returning the main organs to normal function.
The book demonstrates the natural healing approach to most conditions, and this is compared to the drug-based approach, including the fraudulent conduct of drug companies in concealing harms, manipulating data, and making false claims for their drugs to boost sales at the expense of world health.
Ironically, the book shows that a 2,000 year old medical system is far more scientific, effective, and genuinely evidence based than today’s mainstream healthcare.
Fletcher Kovich works as a traditional acupuncture practitioner and researcher. He developed and tested the intelligent tissue theory, which, for the first time, scientifically explains how acupuncture works to correct organ malfunctions.

Nature in Otokar Březina's Work
Cílem této monografie je naznačit symboliku, praktické využití a kontextový význam termínů, metafor a dalších pojmenování z oblasti přírodních věd v díle Otokara Březiny.
Svazek devíti studií vzniklých v letech 2003–2013 (O. Březina’s Galium, Ear of Grain in the Work of Otokar Březina, Vitis vinifera L. ssp. sativa /DC./ Hegi in the Works of Otokar Březina, Trees in the Poetic Works of Otokar Březina, Flora in the Work of Otokar Březina, Flowers in the Work of Otokar Březina, Otokar Březina’s “Geographical” Geology?, Březina’s Stones and Gemstones, Březina’s Stones and Gemstones II) je věnován některým vybraným problémům týkajícím se obrazů, metafor a vůbec obecně výskytů přírodních pojmenování v básnickém, esejistickém a korespondenčním díle vůdčího básníka českého a evropského symbolismu Otokara Březiny (1868–1929).
Překvapivě častá a suverénně používaná a použitá terminologie z oblasti přírodních věd tvoří nezastupitelnou součást básníkova díla a čtenářskou i odbornou veřejností je už vnímána jako jeho integrální součást.
Kniha Nature in Otokar Březina’s Work si klade za cíl zprostředkovat Březinovu tvorbu zahraničním zájemcům a zároveň též přispět k šíření stále dobrého jména české literatury mimo geopolitickou, geografickou i jazykovou oblast výhradně českého prostředí.

The Awakening & Other Short Stories
The Awakening shocked turn-of-the-century readers with its forthright treatment of sex and suicide. Departing from literary convention, Kate Chopin failed to condemn her heroine's desire for an affair with the son of a Louisiana resort owner, whom she meets on vacation. The power of sensuality, the delusion of ecstatic love, and the solitude that accompanies the trappings of middle- and upper-class life are the themes of this now-classic novel. As Kaye Gibbons points out in her Introduction, Chopin "was writing American realism before most Americans could bear to hear that they were living it."
