Book Description
Sanity Rising is a myth-shattering book in two parts. The first part, Unnecessary Evil, focuses on society as the foremost cause for evil in the world. There are societies that focus on elitism, societies that encourage fooling one another for profit, and societies that restrict individual thinking. As ethical freethinking societies emerge, unnecessary evil will become pass. Part two of Sanity Rising addresses Excelling in The 21st Century. One example of part two's unique chapters is the one on charisma. Possibly for the first time ever, charisma has been quantified. By following three simple steps any reader can now become charismatic. Two parts of Sanity Rising combine for a refreshing blend of philosophy and self-help. They trumpet the simple truths for creating a better world, and provide guidance for becoming rich and famous in the new century.

Book Description
The Baron is a collection of short story-like poems that are unrhymed. The book describes the life of the Baron, a nobleman, who lives in a castle in nineteenth century England. Oakcrest Castle is the setting and the Baron, his fiancée, the Duchess of Wellington, Claymore, the castle's keeper, and Kendall, the groundskeeper, are the major characters along with friends of the Baron also featured. The Baron has numerous pets, including geese, pigs, turkeys, a horse, and a donkey that are all a big part of his life. Kendall takes care of them and feeds them along with his pets, a dog, and a raccoon. All the animals have funny names. The Baron frequently rides his horse or travels in the horse and carriage to scenic places around the castle which resides near the Moors. The Baron and his fiancée take many rides to see friends or enjoy the scenery. Life is good for the Baron and he is a proud man with a noble heritage and has lived at Oakcrest Castle his whole life. I hope that the readers will attain a sense of the county life in the English countryside many years ago and of the regal tradition of the castle as the Baron enjoys his wonderful life.

The 48 Laws of Power
Author: Robert Greene
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0670881465
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 481
Book Description
Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this multi-million-copy New York Times bestseller is the definitive manual for anyone interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control. This is the only authorized hardcover edition in the US. In the book that People magazine proclaimed “beguiling” and “fascinating,” Robert Greene and Joost Elffers have distilled three thousand years of the history of power into 48 essential laws by drawing from the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, and Carl Von Clausewitz and also from the lives of figures ranging from Henry Kissinger to P.T. Barnum. Some laws teach the need for prudence (“Law 1: Never Outshine the Master”), others teach the value of confidence (“Law 28: Enter Action with Boldness”), and many recommend absolute self-preservation (“Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally”). Every law, though, has one thing in common: an interest in total domination. In a bold and arresting two-color package, The 48 Laws of Power is ideal whether your aim is conquest, self-defense, or simply to understand the rules of the game.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER More than ONE MILLION copies sold A TODAY Show Read with Jenna Book Club Pick A New York Times Notable Book, a New York Times Readers’ Choice Best Book of the Century, and Chosen by Oprah Daily, Time, NPR, The Washington Post, Bill Gates and Barack Obama as a Best Book of the Year “Wise and wildly entertaining . . . permeated with light, wit, youth.” —The New York Times Book Review “A classic that we will read for years to come.” —Jenna Bush Hager, Read with Jenna book club “Fantastic. Set in 1954, Towles uses the story of two brothers to show that our personal journeys are never as linear or predictable as we might hope.” —Bill Gates “A real joyride . . . elegantly constructed and compulsively readable.” —NPR The bestselling author of A Gentleman in Moscow and Rules of Civility and master of absorbing, sophisticated fiction returns with a stylish and propulsive novel set in 1950s America In June, 1954, eighteen-year-old Emmett Watson is driven home to Nebraska by the warden of the juvenile work farm where he has just served fifteen months for involuntary manslaughter. His mother long gone, his father recently deceased, and the family farm foreclosed upon by the bank, Emmett's intention is to pick up his eight-year-old brother, Billy, and head to California where they can start their lives anew. But when the warden drives away, Emmett discovers that two friends from the work farm have hidden themselves in the trunk of the warden's car. Together, they have hatched an altogether different plan for Emmett's future, one that will take them all on a fateful journey in the opposite direction—to the City of New York. Spanning just ten days and told from multiple points of view, Towles's third novel will satisfy fans of his multi-layered literary styling while providing them an array of new and richly imagined settings, characters, and themes. “Once again, I was wowed by Towles’s writing—especially because The Lincoln Highway is so different from A Gentleman in Moscow in terms of setting, plot, and themes. Towles is not a one-trick pony. Like all the best storytellers, he has range. He takes inspiration from famous hero’s journeys, including The Iliad, The Odyssey, Hamlet, Huckleberry Finn, and Of Mice and Men. He seems to be saying that our personal journeys are never as linear or predictable as an interstate highway. But, he suggests, when something (or someone) tries to steer us off course, it is possible to take the wheel.” – Bill Gates
