by Carlo De VitoPoignant, funny tales about a man and his dog--and the lessons learned about responsibility and enduring friendship.It is love at first sight when Carlo De Vito, an aspiring book editor, first meets Exley, the rambunctious, rescued German Shorthair Pointer he adopts and who becomes his faithful companion. In 10 Secrets My Dog Taught Me, De Vito writes about their experiences growing up together--and the life lessons that invariably result from their adventures. Ultimately, when his beloved friend is gone, De Vito discovers some thruths about love, loss, and lasting friendship."It had been Exley's job to raise me. All that time we had been having fun, going for walks, getting into trouble, being companions and friends in some great adventure. And I had spent so much time teaching him to sit, stay, lie down, roll over. But all along, he had been teaching me. It is the child that makes the man, and in this case it was a dog. All along it had been the dog doing the teaching, not me. How do you like that? And I love him for it to this day and will for the rest of my life."Writing in the heartwarming, bestselling tradition of Pack of Two and My Dog Skip, De Vito captures the spirit of that tie in a way that will resonate with not only dog lovers, but all those who share their heart and home with a pet.

10 Things Your Minister Wants to Tell You: (but Can't, Because He Needs The Job)
by Oliver "Buzz" Thomas“Just [when] you thought Jesus was coming again toting a gun” a renowned reverend “remind[s] us to look for the real thing—the Jesus who spoke of love” (Bill Moyers, Emmy and Peabody Award–winning journalist).“How did it all begin?”“What happens when we die?”These are just two of the questions Reverend Oliver “Buzz” Thomas hears centrist Christians asking as he travels across the US and he knows that their voices are not being heard. They’re people of faith, not of politics, and they want more from their religion than a voter’s guide.In 10 Things Your Minister Wants to Tell You (But Can’t Because He Needs the Job), Rev. Thomas has written a book that is the liberal Christian answer to how live a purposeful life. He writes sensitively about the reason we were put on this earth, the significance of the Bible and how one pleases God. He answers difficult, contemporary questions like “What about homosexuality?” and “What about other faiths?” Rev. Thomas weaves a Christian theology for today that people will embrace as a guide to sensible, modern living.“Clear and engaging. . . . Taking on popular religious writers like Tim LaHaye and Rick Warren, Thomas argues against many conservative interpretations of biblical texts.” —Publishers Weekly“As a lifelong advocate for justice . . . Rev. Oliver Thomas has never been afraid to challenge the status quo.” —Marian Wright Edelman, President and Founder of the Children’s Defense Fund“Buzz Thomas makes God accessible even for those who find church difficult.” —Rev. Joan Brown Campbell, former General Secretary of the National and World Councils of Churches“A fascinating read, regardless of religious or political affiliation.” —Book Page

100 Bullshit Jobs
by Stanley BingThe scholarly discipline of Bullshit Studies has blossomed in the last several years, fertilized by a number of critical works on the subject and the growing importance of the issue across a wide range of professions. Now, best-selling author and lifelong practitioner Stanley Bing enters the field with a comprehensive look at the many attractive jobs now available to those who are serious about their bullshit and prepared to dedicate their working life to it. What, Bing inquires, do a feng shui consultant, new media executive, wine steward, department store greeter, and Vice President of the United States have in common? What, too, are the actual duties performed by a McKinsey consultant? Other than sitting around making people nervous? Could that possibly be his core function? Likewise, what does an aromatherapist actually do, per se? Sniff things and rub them on people, for big fragrant bucks? Is that all? The answer in all cases is "Yes." They all have bullshit jobs. These few, of course, are just the beginning. Across the length and breadth of this shrinking globe, skillful bullshit artists have secured pleasant, lucrative employment, and are enjoying themselves more than you are. In virtually every occupation, from Advertising to Yoga Franchising, lucky individuals who "work" in these coveted positions enjoy the best lives imaginable -- they are paid well, they rarely break a sweat, and their professions are highly respected, because nobody really knows what they do. At once funny, useful, and tolerably philosophical, this groundbreaking work takes a close look at 100 bullshit jobs -- the money they bring with them, the actual tasks and activities involved (if any), and famous and successful examples of each position, who will provide the neophyte with inspiration. Most crucially, Bing goes on to offer what others so far have not--a clear, concise strategy to help job-seekers at every level reach for that brass ring, knowing full well that it may be attached to the nose of a bull.
