Paperback. Zustand: Good. Tom Perrotta calls BACK IN BROOKFORD "a stellar collection of short stories . . . dark and poignantly funny." In this series of linked stories that are, by turns, affecting, humorous, and slightly off-kilter, David Lott introduces us to the fictional Southern town of Brookford and a number of its more interesting residents. Following the characters through the decades--as children and rebellious teens in the '60s, '70s, and '80s; as adults struggling to make sense of it all in the '90s, the early 2000s, and beyond--we see the difficulties they face, the shameful secrets they keep, the too-few triumphs they celebrate. As their paths cross and tangle, as their stories bounce ahead in time and then back again, we begin to understand that the great fondness they share for their hometown is perhaps the only thing in their lives that never changes.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. This is a book about falling in love with the Bible . . . that feels nothing like reading a book about the Bible.This Book Is for You will help you learn that the Bible has something life-changing to say about who you are, where you are, and the God who is in the midst of it. When you finish this book, you just might say, I see what she did here. I didn't realize it, but I was learning while I was laughing. She invited me into a dialogue about things I didn't know I wanted to learn. She stirred within me a love for the Bible, but it didn't hurt at all.This Book Is for You invites you into the author's life using stories, humor, and charm, revealing how the Bible has become Tricia Lott Williford's daily lifeline. Regardless of your notions of the Bible, Tricia will help you engage with it as a living, meets-me-where-I'm-at thing.Tricia is not a seminarian. She is a lover of God's Word. She is not a highbrow academician. She is educated as a grade school teacher who sometimes uses comic relief to make her point. She is not a theologian, a Bible teacher, or even a Bible scholar. Tricia is a lover of messy people; a mom of two teenage boys who are likely late for school and wearing mismatched socks. She has been known to absent-mindedly doodle in the margins of overdue library books. She has battled depression and anxiety to degrees that have nearly drowned her. She has begged the Lord for miracles that only He could provide. And somewhere in the midst of all that, she fell hopelessly in love with the Word of God as a light to her next step and the air for her next breath.Now Tricia wants you to experience this too.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Miniature celebrations of place, the writings in Nowhere Else But Here (ital) deftly maneuver through imagined spaces and bustling Manhattan streets, the impossible page and the architecture of Japanese homes.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Exploring three generations of the men in his family -- his father and his two uncles, his own two brothers, and his two sons -- Bret Lott spins a sweeping true saga of the ties that bind. With quiet grace and his trademark talent for finding powerful revelations in the most unlikely places, master novelist Lott delivers a bracingly personal and honest memoir that confronts the often inexpressible complexities of contemporary maleness. Fathers, Sons, and Brothers describes not only the ways men and boys relate to one another but also how their lives evolve over decades, endlessly imitative yet varied. In the end, these essays constitute a celebration of humanity, regardless of gender -- of joy and sorrow, of intimacy and distance, of lingering secrets and universal truths.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Everybody waits. We wait for a spouse, wait for a baby, wait on our children, wait for our parents. We wait for clarity and direction. We wait on a job, a promotion, a new direction. We wait for hope, for healing, and for miracles. We wait on God. And when we misunderstand what waiting is about, we can get confused about what God is up to. Waiting is one of God's favorite tools. He can do certain things in our hearts, our lives, and our relationships while we wait--things we cannot experience once we've opened the gift we have been waiting for. So just you wait, because everyone takes their turn in the waiting room. It's a long and painful fact of life, but shortcuts and microwaves aren't the answer. God is at work behind the scenes in invisible ways you can't see . . . yet. Just you wait and see how ready you'll be if you spend your waiting well. Because when your opportunity comes, you don't want to spend more time on the bench. When you wait well, you can say, Look out, world: I am getting ready to shine. Just you wait. In these pages, Tricia discusses the joy hidden in the discipline of waiting, and the practices of believing God is for you and working on your behalf, even when the work of His hand is hard to find.…

Hardback. Zustand: Fair. How free-market economies really work(and why they work so well)Are free market economies really based on fleecing the consumer? Is the U.S. economy truly just a giant free-for-all that encourages duplicity in our everyday transactions? Is everyone from corporate CEOs to your local car salesman really looking to make a buck at your expense?In Freedomnomics: Why the Free Market Works and Other Half-Baked Theories Don't,economist and bestselling author John R. Lott, Jr., answers these and other common economic questions, bravely confronting the profound distrust of the market that the bestselling book Freakonomics has helped to popularize. Using clear and hard-hitting examples, Lott shows how free markets liberate the best, most creative, and most generous aspects of our society--while efforts to constrain economic liberty, no matterhow well-intentioned, invariably lead to increased poverty and injustice.

How political campaign restrictions keep incumbents in power? Why legalized abortion leads to family breakdown, which creates more crime? Why affirmative action in police departments leads to higher crime rates? How women's suffrage led to a massive increase in the size of government· Why women become more conservative when they get married and moreliberal when they get divorced? How secret ballots reduce voter participation? Why state-owned companies and government agencies are much more likely to engage in unfair predation than are private firms? Why the controversial assertions made in the trendy book Freakonomics are almost entirely wrongEntertaining, persuasive, and based on dozens of economic studies spanning decades, Freedomnomics not only shows how free markets really work--but proves that, when it comes to promoting prosperity and economic justice, nothing works better.…
