Book Description
Cathy had an idyllic life: a sailboat in the Caribbean, a very successful business, a beautiful home in the mountains and above all, a wonderful son whom she adored. Suddenly, like a bolt of lightening, her son's heart stopped beating. All possible meaning to that life disappeared: sailboat sold, business lost, the home and even the country abandoned - too many memories.The only thought that seemed plausible was to end, in any way possible, a now miserable existence. But then..., intuitions, meaningful dreams,unexplained happenings, and amazing coincidences guided Cathy toward the study, research and exploration of the continuation of consciousness, and therefore, existence after death.Contrasting her experiences with research from well-known and highly respected sources led to the realization that Western beliefs about death from famous and respected sources, led to the realization that Western beliefs about death cripple our understanding of life. By going beyond belief, Cathy not only experiences that existence continues after death, but concludes that collaboration with the dead is vitally important for those both we call the living and those we call the dead. In Finding Aaron, Cathy shares her experiences, presents her findings, and provides directives for readers to go beyond their own beliefs toward a different understanding of the meaning of life and death, arising from experiencing that death is not a dead end.

Book Description
“This is the management book of the year. Clear, powerful and urgent, it's a must read for anyone who cares about where they work and how they work.” —Seth Godin, author of This is Marketing “This book is a breath of fresh air. Read it now, and make sure your boss does too.” —Adam Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Give and Take, Originals, and Option B with Sheryl Sandberg When fast-scaling startups and global organizations get stuck, they call Aaron Dignan. In this book, he reveals his proven approach for eliminating red tape, dissolving bureaucracy, and doing the best work of your life. He’s found that nearly everyone, from Wall Street to Silicon Valley, points to the same frustrations: lack of trust, bottlenecks in decision making, siloed functions and teams, meeting and email overload, tiresome budgeting, short-term thinking, and more. Is there any hope for a solution? Haven’t countless business gurus promised the answer, yet changed almost nothing about the way we work? That’s because we fail to recognize that organizations aren’t machines to be predicted and controlled. They’re complex human systems full of potential waiting to be released. Dignan says you can’t fix a team, department, or organization by tinkering around the edges. Over the years, he has helped his clients completely reinvent their operating systems—the fundamental principles and practices that shape their culture—with extraordinary success. Imagine a bank that abandoned traditional budgeting, only to outperform its competition for decades. An appliance manufacturer that divided itself into 2,000 autonomous teams, resulting not in chaos but rapid growth. A healthcare provider with an HQ of just 50 people supporting over 14,000 people in the field—that is named the “best place to work” year after year. And even a team that saved $3 million per year by cancelling one monthly meeting. Their stories may sound improbable, but in Brave New Work you’ll learn exactly how they and other organizations are inventing a smarter, healthier, and more effective way to work. Not through top down mandates, but through a groundswell of autonomy, trust, and transparency. Whether you lead a team of ten or ten thousand, improving your operating system is the single most powerful thing you can do. The only question is, are you ready?

Book Description
I don't have so much tricks up my sleeve, as much as journalistic fundamentals to take down powerful and influential people that think they're completely above the law and won't ever get caught. I want to show them that we're watching and they will be held accountable. So if a politician is only in it for the money, and say they want illegals to leave, is there a possibility they don't want them to leave? Is there a chance they really want them here because immigrant labor is cheaper than American? Are politicians making money hand over fist because the companies that employ immigrants make truckloads of it themselves and therefore contribute more to campaigns? The vigilante types are probably linked to the corrupt politicians, who both stand to lose equally if immigrants were made legal. The politicians would lose the status quo of cheap labor they can take advantage of, and the vigilantes would have to deal with a multi-racial society; which is all meant to benefit the status quo.

Book Description
A funny, colorful, fascinating tour through the work and life of one of today’s most influential graphic designers. Esquire. Ford Motors. Burton Snowboards. The Obama Administration. While all of these brands are vastly different, they share at least one thing in common: a teeny little bit of Aaron James Draplin. Draplin is one of the new school of influential graphic designers who combine the power of design, social media, entrepreneurship, and DIY aesthetic to create a successful business and way of life. Pretty Much Everything is a mid-career survey of work, case studies, inspiration, road stories, lists, maps, how-tos, and advice. It includes examples of his work—posters, record covers, logos—and presents the process behind his design with projects like Field Notes and the “Things We Love” State Posters. Draplin also offers valuable advice and hilarious commentary that illustrates how much more goes into design than just what appears on the page. With Draplin’s humor and pointed observations on the contemporary design scene, Pretty Much Everything is the complete package.
