Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
Marion Grodin, daughter of funnyman Charles Grodin, knows firsthand that laughter is truly the best medicine, having not only survived breast cancer and divorce, but also, various addictions-including an inappropriate relationship with Haagen Dazs. Her hilarious riffs include; the story of growing large breasts that appeared seemingly overnight (Unfortunately this happened during the summer that she spent on the set of King Kong with her father and Jeff Bridges on whom she developed a huge crush); Her post divorce life, its slight weight gain and how she relied on her wise support group, her cats "BabyFighter" Edmond and "fashionably sporty, forensic expert" Snuggles. In this cleverly written memoir Marion integrates her diverse and challenging life experiences and unstoppable ability to make everything funny in a way that is both entertaining and helpful. She hopes that her book will send a message to those who feel they are misfits and to those locked in addiction: there is a way out - and life can be very good when you kick the habit.

Breathless
Author: Lex Martin

Languages : en
Pages : 347
Book Description
I have one goal—protect my heart from my best friend—the handsome Texas rancher next door, who has no clue that I've loved him my whole life… even with a front row seat to his revolving bedroom door. Joey... I didn't exactly run away. I'd call it self-preservation. My escape plan almost worked. Except I left one thing behind. Logan Carter hijacked my heart, and now it's time to get it back. This time for good. Logan... I'm not lying exactly… not about everything. Not about how much I miss my best friend Joey, and definitely not about how pissed I am that she left with hardly a goodbye. She's the last person I ever expected to ghost me, and her absence left a gaping hole in my chest. When Joey Grayson steps off that bus, I know I'll do anything to keep her home, and that means being honest. But I'm not sure how to tell her my truths, when I'm living so many lies. * * * Breathless is a swoony standalone best friends-to-lovers romance novel in the USA Today bestselling Texas Nights series. It’s a perfectly sweet, but passionately sexy story of unrequited love with plenty of angst and humor. If you enjoy irresistible, slow burn, small-town Western romances, this book is for you! Will Logan finally quit holding back his true feelings, when Joey tells him that she’s going back to Florida, during an emotional walk together on the beach… or will he let her disappear from his life forever? “It has been a long time since I stayed up past midnight reading a book without even realizing it. This friends to lovers story hit me right in the feels, tugging on my heartstrings, pining right alongside with Joey for those long awaited feelings to be reciprocated from the man she loved in secret for years. Being seen as a little sister has never been what Joey wanted, but how do you get yourself out of the friend zone with a handsome cowboy like Logan?”- Reader Review

Aristotle's Theory of Substance
Author: Michael V. Wedin
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0191519456
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 497
Book Description
Aristotle's views on the fundamental nature of reality are usually taken to be inconsistent. The two main sources for these views are the Categories and the central books of the Metaphysics, particularly book Zeta. In the early theory of the Categories the basic entities of the world are concrete objects such as Socrates: Aristotle calls them 'primary substances'. But the later theory awards this title to the forms of concrete objects. Michael Wedin proposes a compatibilist solution to this long-standing puzzle, arguing that Aristotle is engaged in quite different projects in the two works. The theory of Metaphysics Zeta is meant to explain central features of the standing doctrine of the Categories, and so presupposes the essential truth of the early theory. The Categories offers a theory of underlying ontological configurations, while book Zeta gives form the status of primary substance because it is primarily the form of a concrete object that explains its nature, and this form is the substance of the object. So when the late theory identifies primary substance with form, it appeals to an explanatory primacy that is quite distinct from the ontological primacy that dominates the Categories. Wedin's new interpretation thus allows us to see the two treatises as complementing each other: they are parts of a unified history of substance.
