Book Description
In this simple and accessible guide to male infertility, Dr. Kandil aims to balance what he sees as insufficient information on the subject compared to the abundance of resources on female infertility. The blame goes to what seems to be a cloud of shyness preventing men from discussing their problems openly. Dr. Kandil is here to offer an all-you-need-to-know book that answers the most pressing questions many men feel ashamed to research and discuss. The book also offers pearls of wisdom and a glimmer of hope for couples longing to conceive, while at the same time breaking down the walls around male infertility one tip at a time.
A Pearl of Hope
Author: Tatyana Alekseyevna
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 9781591609339
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 182
Book Description
"It was a tragedy...that is the way I always answered people who asked about the scars on my neck...the scars left by my mother when she tried to kill me." In one day of incomprehensible terror, Tatyana lost her twin sister, Natasha, three younger sisters and a younger brother, all at the hands of their very own mother. Only Tatyana and her older half-brother, Sasha, would survive. Where there were once seven precious young lives just beginning to blossom...only two soul-scarred children remained. In A Pearl of Hope, follow Tatyana as she, Sasha and their father strive to rebuild their shattered lives, struggling to move from the dark shadow of their tortured past. Walk with her through the darkness of a troubled childhood, an adolescence that brought her to the brink of suicide, and into the light she found as she embraced God's restorative, healing love. "Tatyana's award-winning book, A Pearl of Hope, is a stark recounting of her once idyllic, then suddenly horrific childhood. Though shocking and disturbing, her story ultimately unfolds as an account of the victory of hope over despair, a triumph of good over evil. Through it all, God's love, redemptive power and faithfulness shine through." (Jim Kochenburger, best-selling Christian author and publisher.) The author writes, "The most important thing I want the reader to know is that when I look back on my life, the only reason I am still standing is because of my faith in God and obedience to His Word. That is all I can point to for enjoying the life I now live." Tatyana Alekseyevna is a happily married mother of two children, who currently resides in Georgia. She lives to pursue God with a whole heart and to serve Him every day of her life.

In Search of Hope
Author: Mariane Pearl
Publisher: powerHouse Books
ISBN: 9781576874226
Category : Photography
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Mariane Pearl started traveling the globe for Glamour magazine in 2006 to profile courageous women and show that hope is stronger than fear. During the first year of writing her monthly "Global Diary" column, Pearl logged nearly 100,000 miles and met 12 brave, determined women-true agents of change in their communities-who make the world a more just and harmonious place despite personal hardship, discouraging odds and even death threats. In Search of Hope: The Global Diaries of Mariane Pearl introduces readers to these everyday heroes. The limited-edition run of In Search of Hope features more than 200 previously unpublished images from Pearl's travels and updates on the women since they were first profiled in the magazine. Mariane's good friend, Angelina Jolie, who also portrays her in A Mighty Heart, has written a touching and personal tribute to Mariane as the foreword for In Search of Hope. Among some of the inspirational women readers will meet are Somaly Mam, a former child sex slave in Cambodia who now rescues girls from forced prostitution; Liberian president Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, the first woman to be elected head of an African country; Lydia Cacho, the intrepid Mexican reporter who exposes violence against women and children despite repeated threats on her life; Sheila Watt-Cloutier, the Inuit leader and a Nobel Peace Prize nominee working toward the reverse of global warming; and Dr. Julian Atim, a Ugandan AIDS orphan-turned-doctor fighting for health rights in her country. "The women featured here are all different and their context varies widely, yet you will find the same active principle animating them. This is the ultimate value of hope," says Mariane Pearl. "These women teach us a lot about the power of human empathy and the value of beauty that emanates from them as they progress on this lonely yet magnificent path that will lead them to become a genuine source of hope for all people." "As anyone who's seen or read A Mighty Heart knows, Mariane is a woman of incredible personal strength," says Cindi Leive, Glamour editor-in-chief. "But as millions of Glamour readers have learned, she's also a fiercely committed journalist. She set out to find women who are changing the world-and the stories she's brought back, collected here for the first time, are the kind of personal profiles that alter your thinking forever." Mariane Pearl's acclaimed "Global Diary" column for Glamour has been featured in The New York Times and on CNN, and has been recognized as a National Headliner Award winner. Glamour will donate 100 percent of its proceeds and royalties from all books sold on glamour.com to charities selected by the women profiled.

The Book of Pearl
Author: Timothée de Fombelle
Publisher: Candlewick Press
ISBN: 0763694088
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
In prose as magical and intricate as the tale it tells, Timothée de Fombelle delivers an unforgettable story of a first love that defines a lifetime. Joshua Pearl comes from a world that we no longer believe in — a world of fairy tale. He knows that his great love waits for him there, but he is stuck in an unfamiliar time and place — an old-world marshmallow shop in Paris on the eve of World War II. As his memories begin to fade, Joshua seeks out strange objects: tiny fragments of tales that have already been told, trinkets that might possibly help him prove his own story before his love is lost forever. Sarah Ardizzone and Sam Gordon translate the original French into a work both luminous and layered, enabling Timothée de Fombelle’s modern fairy tale to thrum with magic. Brimming with romance and history, mystery and adventure, this ode to the power of memory, storytelling, and love will ensnare any reader’s imagination, and every reader’s heart.
