Hardback. Zustand: Good. Can empathy be taught? The importance of empathy and its impact are explored in A Girl Named October. The title character, October, is ever present as the narrator navigates a life without realizing how even the smallest memories, interactions, and expressions can impact a very large, and often imposing, world. Touching the world is no longer an abstract idea, but a concrete action that reveals how everything we do affects everyone around us. Lighthearted in its approach, but powerful in its message, this book tells a story that will spur conversations with children and adults alike. Tripke, Andrea (illustrator).…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. From the Editors: This issue of EIR begins our coverage of the Oct. 18-19 conference of the Schiller Institute in Frankfurt, Germany, a conference which epitomized the spirit of optimism and determination to rid the world of geopolitics, which has been sweeping the world with the BRICS de-velopments, beginning Summer 2014 (Feature). The scope of the first panel, which was devoted to the New Silk Road, gives you the idea of this conference's importance, which was also underscored by the high-level participation of several of the nations in that project-especially China, India, and Iran. The role of Helga Zepp-LaRouche, founder of the Institute, has been crucial in bringing these forces together, and her contribution to promoting the New Silk Road was acknowledged by a number of the speakers. The Russian contribution, which congratulated both Lyndon and Helga LaRouche on their work, came in the form of a greeting by Mikhail Titarenko, director of the Institute of Far East Studies, of the Russian Academy of Sciences, which we published in our last issue. Prof. Shi Ze, of the China Institute of International Studies in Beijing, Dr. Fatemeh Hashemi Rafsanjani, president of the Women's Solidarity Association of Iran, and Jayshree Sengupta, senior fellow of the Observer Research Foundation of India, were joined by Dr. Natalia Vitrenko, economist of Ukraine, and Ali Rastbeen, founder and president of the Paris Academy of Geopolitics.The challenge and intent of this event, as conceived by Mrs. LaRouche, were reflected in the concluding Resolution (see last week's issue): We call on all forces of reason in Europe and the United States, to join the emerging new economic order of the BRICS and the New Silk Road, and establish an inclusive peace order for all mankind. Our news coverage is limited to a few crucial developments. First, in Economics, the formal agreement by 21 Asian nations to form the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), and the inauguration of one of the major infrastructure projects underway on the planet-the central route of the Chinese North-South Water Transfer Project. These breakthroughs reflect the dynamic that London and Wall Street want to kill-starting with the news of their achievement. On the Empire side, we focus on the threats of the ISIS jihadists (International) and the Ebola epidemic (National)-but not as bystanders. Our coverage features what needs to be done to stop these horrors. Don't miss the War Plan against Ebola, which is literally a life-or-death matter for all mankind.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * THE BEST SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR "October 1964 should be a hit with old-time baseball fans, who'll relish the opportunity to relive that year's to-die-for World Series, when the dynastic but aging New York Yankees squared off against the upstart St. Louis Cardinals. It should be a hit with younger students of the game, who'll eat up the vivid portrayals of legends like Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris of the Yankees and Bob Gibson and Lou Brock of the Cardinals. Most of all, however, David Halberstam's new book should be a hit with anyone interested in understanding the important interplay between sports and society." --The Boston Globe "Compelling.1964 is a chronicle of the end of a great dynasty and of a game, like the country, on the cusp of enormous change." --Newsweek "Halberstam's latest gives us the feeling of actually being there--in another time, in the locker rooms and in the minds of baseball legends.

These are not demigods of summer but flawed, believable human beings who on occasion can rise to peaks of heroism." --Chicago Sun-Times.…
