Why is Miami… Miami? What does the heartbreaking fate of the cheetah tell us about the way we raise our children? Why do Ivy League schools care so much about sports? What is the Magic Third, and what does it mean for racial harmony? In this provocative new work, Malcolm Gladwell returns to the subject of social epidemics and tipping points, this time with the aim of explaining the dark side of contagious phenomena. Through a series of gripping stories, Gladwell traces the rise of a new and troubling form of social engineering

Courageous Truth teller.,Andrew McCabe .
Revisado: 10-24-22
As Acting Director of the FBI he exemplified courage and focus under fire from the former president and shows what true American values are needed to stand up in the face of falsity and unjustified humiliation. A good read and an excellent reminder and resource.

Giggly. Pretentious. Vague. Ambiguous. Worthless reviewers. More serious material than given credit for.

Growing up, Jenny Pentland’s life was a literal sitcom. Many of the storylines for her mother’s smash hit series, Roseanne, were drawn from Pentland’s early family life in working-class Denver. But that was only the beginning of the drama. Roseanne Barr’s success as a comedian catapulted the family from the Rockies to star-studded Hollywood—with its toxic culture of money, celebrity, and prying tabloids that was destabilizing for a child in grade school.

What a ride!! Jennie Pentland's Memoir
Revisado: 01-21-22
Written and narrated by Jennie Pentland, daughter of famed TV Star, Roseanne Barr, Jennie shares her experiences growing up in the midst of emotional and psychological upheavals in the lights and shadows of a multi-year sitcom. How she currently navigates the circumstances of her past and copes with the present demands of her own motherhood and family life is relatable, and often incredible! Her keen intellect, a sharp wit, and creativity emerges from an author who has compelling stories to tell worthy of a listen. Be ready for the ride, fasten your seatbelts, and prepare for surprises, shock, delights, humor, horror and insights from the floodlights of Hollywood to the farm on Hawaii. I look forward to her next book!

About 2,500 years ago, Plato wrote a set of dialogues that depict Socrates in conversation. The way Socrates asks questions, and the reasons why, amount to a whole way of thinking. This is the Socratic method - one of humanity’s great achievements. More than a technique, the method is an ethic of patience, inquiry, humility, and doubt. It is an aid to better thinking, and a remedy for bad habits of mind, whether in law, politics, the classroom, or tackling life’s big questions at the kitchen table.

Revisado: 01-05-22
So far, I have listened to this book three times. Each time I hear new nuances and distinctions to clarify my understanding of Socratic thought. I enjoy the realization that these ancient processes of thought and discourse are relevant and applicable to our current communication in 2022
Thanks to the author and narrator for this thought provoking and enjoyable read!

From the United States and Britain to continental Europe and beyond, liberal democracy is under siege, while authoritarianism is on the rise. In Twilight of Democracy, Anne Applebaum, an award-winning historian of Soviet atrocities who was one of the first American journalists to raise an alarm about antidemocratic trends in the West, explains the lure of nationalism and autocracy. In this captivating essay, she contends that political systems with radically simple beliefs are inherently appealing, especially when they benefit the loyal to the exclusion of everyone else.

Illuminating! Anne Applebaum
Revisado: 04-19-21
This was my second reading of this book! I loved her cosmopolitan and comprehensive analysis of events, personal, political, and profound. It portends and is predictive of what is to come globally and how 🤔 and what must be done to preserve Democracy, if it is to overcome authoritarian dominance. An excellent, timely book!
