Thirteen Months

The True Story of One Couple's Journey of Passion, Life, and Undying Love

By: Don Brobst

In a society where love has been tainted and marriage destroyed by the ways of this world, Thirteen Months is the depiction of the ultimate love between a man and a woman, the way God intends it to be. In the face of unspeakable tragedy, every aspect of one couple’s adventures, both past and present, has forged the bond between them that will carry them into the center of God’s plan. As a physician finding himself in the heart-wrenching position of being totally and utterly helpless to save the love of his life, Don has no power to overcome this foe, save for his faith in God and the power of prayer. A romantic and deeply touching story, Thirteen Months seeks to inspire on every level. It reaches out not only to those finding themselves fighting for their lives, but for couples everywhere who desire more in their marriages and who need to see the fullness of love and depth of romance God desires for them.

French House

An American Family, a Ruined Maison, and the Village That Restored Them All

By: Don Wallace

On a tiny French island, a couple of American dreamers redefine their lives by restoring a ruin—which in this lovely, shimmering story becomes a parable of a saner, greener, more sustainable path that we all can follow if we will but listen to the wisdom of the villagers the way the Wallaces did. The French House moves to a soulful, very funny rhythm all its own."—Meryl Streep "A brave, insightful, and very amusing memoir about a fantasy that many of us have had but not dared to attempt."—Jane Smiley When life hands you lemons, make citron pressé. Shortly after Don and Mindy Wallace move to Manhattan to jump-start their writing careers, they learn of a house for sale in a village they once visited on a tiny French island off the Brittany coast. Desperate for a life change, the Wallaces bravely (and impulsively) buy it almost sight unseen. What they find when they arrive is a ruin, and it isn't long before their lives begin to resemble it—with hilarious and heartwarming results. Redolent with the beauty and flavors of French country life, The French House is a lively, inspiring, and irresistibly charming memoir of a family that rises from the rubble, wins the hearts of a historic village, and finally finds the home they've been seeking off the wild coast of France. "Don Wallace has crafted a delicious French bonbon of a book...full of humor, hope, and lessons on how to live a life full of meaning."—Dani Shapiro, bestselling author of Devotion and Still Writing "The French House isn't a memoir. It's a vacation. Charming, gorgeous, perceptive, it is peppered with unforgettable characters and steeped in the deep red wine of long-term friendship, showing us how a remarkable place can make a life worth living."—Jennie Fields, author of The Age of Desire

Enhancing and Capturing More Value from the Caribbean Community’s Value Chains

Enhancing and Capturing More Value from the Caribbean Community’s Value Chains

By: Don Charles

The organization of production processes into a chain of production stages that could be located in different countries, each of which provide a unique advantage, has become a defining characteristic of international trade. Industrial development, the movement of intermediate products, and the trading of final goods and services are inextricably linked to global value chains. Global value chain analysis is useful in providing a comprehensive overview of an entire industry, identifying an individual firm or country’s position in the global value chain, and mapping how the firm or country may upgrade to capture more value along this value chain. This book presents various case studies which analyse some of the prevalent constraints experienced in industries of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) member states. In addition, it identifies practical policy recommendations which can be used to address such challenges, and allow the member states to capture more value from their industries’ global value chains. It addresses issues such as the declining preferences in agriculture value chains, the feasibility of enhancing the economic contribution of the maritime industry, the urgency for climate-resilient strategies in the banana industry, and the need for local content policy to create an appropriate framework to capture a fair share of value from the hydrocarbon industry. Given the persistence of challenges, the lack of upgrading, and the dearth of research conducted on value chains in the CARICOM region, this book can serve as a basis upon which governments and regional organizations may adopt policy recommendations to address trade and investment-related challenges, and increase the member states’ effective participation in international trade.

The Nature and Types of Sociological Theory

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The Nature and Types of Sociological Theory

By: Don Martindale

First Published in 1998. This is Volume XI of twenty-two in a series on Social Theory and Methodology. Notions are widespread that sociological theory is either an industrious activity on the drawing boards of the architects of fantasy or a branch of esoterics operating in a shadowy realm of semi-darkness. The present study holds neither of these conceptions of sociological. The present study’s function is to illuminate the difference between one theory and another. The power and reliability of a theory are not always evident all at once. A theory may have a power to explain what was not originally anticipated; it may also disclose the existence of problems it cannot explain.

UFO Briefing Document

The Best Available Evidence

By: Don Berliner

The shattering report that stunned the world's top leaders—now available to the public! Are UFOs in our midst? The evidence mounts . . . 1952 UFO squadrons over Washington, D.C. Tracked on radar. Visual sightings by military. Verdict: “Unexplainable.” 1976 UFO dogfight with F-4 Phantom II jets over Tehran. Weapons “jammed.” Radar/visual confirmation. Verdict: “Unavailable: Top Secret.” 1981 UFO lands in Trans-en-Provence. Investigated by French police. Soil samples analyzed. Verdict: “UFO. No hoax.” Compiled here are the most compelling and authenticated UFO cases ever recorded. Fresh from the government’s secret files, spanning over a half century of eyewitness testimony, documented sightings, and unexplained phenomena, this groundbreaking compilation presents the chilling evidence that UFOs are real—and that a government cover-up has long suppressed the stunning truth. Complete with excerpts from official transcripts, diagrams, and photos, UFO Briefing Document, funded by Laurance Rockefeller and presented to Congress, contains critical information the public has a right to know . . . now, before it is too late.

Shoreline

Three Plays by Don Hannah

By: Don Hannah

In language that is at once poetic and vernacular, Don Hannah creates characters and stories that long remain with the reader and audience. The three plays in Shoreline explore that most basic and complicated of emotional territories: the family. Produced at the Tarragon Theatre in the 1998-99 season, Fathers and Sons is a tender and funny evocation of one lifelong relationship captured in four movements. When Running Far Back was produced at the Great Canadian Theatre Company in Ottawa in 1994, the Ottawa Citizen called it ""theatre at its most passionate, powerful best."" The play is the emotional thirty-year journey of a brother and sister as they move from violence, through anger, towards forgiveness and hope. As timely today as when it opened in 1986, Rubber Dolly is a memory play gritty, hilarious, and tragic that tells the story of Fern, runaway teenager and single mother. With an introduction by Urjo Kareda, artistic director of Tarragaon Theatre in Toronto.

Star Benchwarmers

A Family Memoir

By: Don Eggspuehler

Just like in flying, emergencies can happen at any time in life when we least expect them. Things are going smoothly and life throws us a curve ball. How we react to those situations is often more important than anything else. When that challenge involves an illness or death of a loved one, the stakes and the tension of the game of life are the highest of all. This is the true story of a family living in Texas, suddenly confronted with the stark reality of brain cancer. Adapting to this common enemy, the family pulled together in a collective support network to help the mother deal with the crisis, while reminiscing and savoring the special moments they have enjoyed together over the years. This is a memoir of Linda Kay Eggspuehlera mother, wife, friend, homemaker, surgical technologist, and so much more. She was the rock and foundation of this family. She touched so many lives with her gentle love and compassion. This memoir is dedicated to her children, so that their children will know who she was a little better.

Look Wot I Dun: Don Powell of Slade

By: Don Powell,Lise Lyng Falkenberg

Look What I Dun is the story of Slade told through the eyes of drummer Don Powell whose life was shattered when, in 1973 at the height of the group s fame, he was involved in a horrific car crash. Unflinching in his honesty, Powell deals frankly with the aftermath of the accident that took the life of his girlfriend and left him with injuries that affect him to this day. Leaders of the glam rock movement, Slade were the UK s biggest singles band in the years 1971-74. Their many hits have become rock n roll standards, not least Merry Christmas Everybody , arguably Britain s all-time favourite Christmas song. For Don Powell, though, success came at a price. Lucky to survive, the aftermath of his accident included alcoholism, financial woes and a life of reckless promiscuity. Now sober and settled in Denmark with an adopted family of his own, Don Powell s story as told to Lise Lyng Falkenberg is a no-nonsense journey to the heights and depths of the rock world.

UFOs, ETs, and Alien Abductions

A Scientist Looks at the Evidence

By: Donderi PhD, Don Crosbie

Psychologist and researcher Don Donderi examines the evidence and research from the past several decades on the changing nature of UFOs. He looks at why the scientific establishment takes a dim view of UFOs and abduction evidence and examines how the US government has collected and suppressed UFO evidence. UFOs, ETs, and Alien Abductions is a wide-ranging examination of all things off-planet that falls into 3 sections. 1. UFOs: evidence and belief between 1947 through 1965 and Cold War mysteries 2. The changing nature of UFO phenomenon from 1965 to the present, which makes the case for the existence of humanoid crew members seen in and around landed UFOs. This section also examines six well-documented abduction cases, and includes the author detailing his own research involvement with the evidence. He refutes the belief that all abductees are mentally disturbed and that a psychological disturbance explains the experience. 3. The third section is devoted to a very meaty and controversial analysis of science, politics, and UFOs.

Satori

By: Don Winslow

From a #1 bestselling author, a formidable assassin is assigned his most dangerous mission yet in this “home run” of an espionage thriller (David Baldacci, New York Times bestselling author). It is the fall of 1951, and the Korean War is raging. Twenty-six-year-old Nicholai Hel has spent the last three years in solitary confinement at the hands of the Americans. He has the skills to be the world's most fearsome assassin and now the CIA needs him. They offer him freedom, money, and a neutral passport in exchange for one small service: to go to Beijing and kill the Soviet Union's commissioner to China. It's almost certainly a suicide mission, but Hel accepts. Now he must survive chaos, violence, suspicion, and betrayal while trying to achieve his ultimate goal of satori-the possibility of true understanding and harmony with the world.

Binding Words

Textual Amulets in the Middle Ages

By: Don C. Skemer

In the Middle Ages, textual amulets--short texts written on parchment or paper and worn on the body--were thought to protect the bearer against enemies, to heal afflictions caused by demonic invasions, and to bring the wearer good fortune. In Binding Words, Don C. Skemer provides the first book-length study of this once-common means of harnessing the magical power of words. Textual amulets were a unique source of empowerment, promising the believer safe passage through a precarious world by means of an ever-changing mix of scriptural quotations, divine names, common prayers, and liturgical formulas. Although theologians and canon lawyers frequently derided textual amulets as ignorant superstition, many literate clergy played a central role in producing and disseminating them. The texts were, in turn, embraced by a broad cross-section of Western Europe. Saints and parish priests, physicians and village healers, landowners and peasants alike believed in their efficacy. Skemer offers careful analysis of several dozen surviving textual amulets along with other contemporary medieval source materials. In the process, Binding Words enriches our understanding of popular religion and magic in everyday medieval life.
