The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck
Author: Mark Manson
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 006245773X
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 197
Book Description
#1 New York Times Bestseller Over 10 million copies sold In this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger cuts through the crap to show us how to stop trying to be "positive" all the time so that we can truly become better, happier people. For decades, we’ve been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F**k positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let’s be honest, shit is f**ked and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn’t sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is—a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is his antidote to the coddling, let’s-all-feel-good mindset that has infected American society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up. Manson makes the argument, backed both by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons better. Human beings are flawed and limited—"not everybody can be extraordinary, there are winners and losers in society, and some of it is not fair or your fault." Manson advises us to get to know our limitations and accept them. Once we embrace our fears, faults, and uncertainties, once we stop running and avoiding and start confronting painful truths, we can begin to find the courage, perseverance, honesty, responsibility, curiosity, and forgiveness we seek. There are only so many things we can give a f**k about so we need to figure out which ones really matter, Manson makes clear. While money is nice, caring about what you do with your life is better, because true wealth is about experience. A much-needed grab-you-by-the-shoulders-and-look-you-in-the-eye moment of real-talk, filled with entertaining stories and profane, ruthless humor, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is a refreshing slap for a generation to help them lead contented, grounded lives.

The Way of the Eagle
Author: Charles J. Biddle
Publisher: Casemate
ISBN: 1612003915
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 123
Book Description
A classic aviation memoir: an American pilot’s account of air combat in the First World War. Charles J. Biddle, a Philadelphia native, was active in France beginning in 1917, where he flew as a volunteer, initially for the French in Escadrille 73, and then in the American 103rd Aero Squadron, the Lafayette Escadrille, and then the 13th Aero Squadron and 4th Pursuit Group, which he commanded. His memoir was published shortly after his return to the United States and provides an immediacy lacking in other books that were written later. Accounts of US pilots from this period are relatively rare, and this one paints a compelling picture of a group of Americans fighting as volunteers for the French. Biddle’s US compatriots soon established their own capability and wrung free of French direction—and as this book reveals, it was largely because of their combat prowess. For his service, Biddle was awarded the French Legion of Honour, the Croix de Guerre, the American Distinguished Service Cross, and the Belgian Order of Leopold II. This memoir gives us a unique perspective on America’s participation in the Great War.

Pages : 536
Book Description
If Dr. Spector asks, "What are you willing to do?" you say without hesitation, "Anything." A renowned Boston therapist quits his practice to travel across the country to live for three months with families who have mental health issues. If he selects your families, be sure that you experience his brand of in-your-face conditioning with off-the-wall professionalism that leads to several hilarious yet provocative interventions, not to forget his very candid viewpoint. After four years of hardship, this changed man selfishly selects a family, the Neads, who live behind the green door in a very descriptive brownstone with too many secrets. When therapy failed, a grave circumstance ensued throughout the neighborhood, causing family friction. Hoping for an alternative solution, a hospital psychiatrist with a kind heart tells the mother about an unorthodox treatment plan performed by an out-of-the-box psychiatrist. Enter the Traveling Therapist. Weeks later, he arrives, parking on the street filled with neighbors who stare at this strange man getting out of his high-priced car. With a sense of belonging, he smiles and waves, then makes his way to the residence with a "tell, not ask" policy. Confused and bored at first to sit through his lectures of mental illness with his cut-to-the-chase style and constant reminders that he will not depart until satisfied. Confronted with a difficult decision, the family finally unites to make life-altering choices.
