The oldest of six children, Randy spent 35 years trying to find his two younger brothers and three younger sisters who were adopted out of his family.

Led by the Spirit

By: Randy Faulk

A Synopsis of Book #60062 In his sequel to Devil at my Doorstep, the author focuses on events from early 1993 until the present. His focus has completely changed from his earlier and rather hard-nosed lessons, to more insightful ones, inspired by the whisperings of the Spirit. He explains how Jeanne unexpectedly came back into his life after almost twenty-seven years. He describes his conversion to the Gospel, and Jeanne's conversion to the Church. He ties up a lot of loose ends which were created earlier. Beginning with the premise that we first learn, then believe, and then know and understand, he directs us to become what we were meant to become.

Lonelier Than God

Robert Penn Warren and the Southern Exile

By: Randy Hendricks

The wandering figure was ever present in Robert Penn Warren's work. Randy Hendricks here explores the centrality of the theme of exile as a way of understanding Warren's artistry, showing that the exile figure is both a key to Warren's relation to much of twentieth-century Southern literature and an index to his growth as an artist. Understanding the exile theme, as Hendricks reveals, is crucial to understanding Warren's regionalism, his thinking on race, and his complex theories of language. This insightful work makes clearer Warren's place in American literature and his importance to the definition of "Southern" and is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to better understand the interplay between regional consciousness, modernity, and the literary imagination.

Houston, We Have a Narrative

Why Science Needs Story

Houston, We Have a Narrative

Why Science Needs Story

By: Randy Olson

Ask a scientist about Hollywood, and you’ll probably get eye rolls. But ask someone in Hollywood about science, and they’ll see dollar signs: moviemakers know that science can be the source of great stories, with all the drama and action that blockbusters require. That’s a huge mistake, says Randy Olson: Hollywood has a lot to teach scientists about how to tell a story—and, ultimately, how to do science better. With Houston, We Have a Narrative, he lays out a stunningly simple method for turning the dull into the dramatic. Drawing on his unique background, which saw him leave his job as a working scientist to launch a career as a filmmaker, Olson first diagnoses the problem: When scientists tell us about their work, they pile one moment and one detail atop another moment and another detail—a stultifying procession of “and, and, and.” What we need instead is an understanding of the basic elements of story, the narrative structures that our brains are all but hardwired to look for—which Olson boils down, brilliantly, to “And, But, Therefore,” or ABT. At a stroke, the ABT approach introduces momentum (“And”), conflict (“But”), and resolution (“Therefore”)—the fundamental building blocks of story. As Olson has shown by leading countless workshops worldwide, when scientists’ eyes are opened to ABT, the effect is staggering: suddenly, they’re not just talking about their work—they’re telling stories about it. And audiences are captivated. Written with an uncommon verve and enthusiasm, and built on principles that are applicable to fields far beyond science, Houston, We Have a Narrative has the power to transform the way science is understood and appreciated, and ultimately how it’s done.

The Organized Sales Plan

By: Randy A. Shuman

Whether you are already in sales, or you are thinking about a career in sales, this book was written for you. Regardless of what you sell or are thinking about selling, you need to understand that most highly successful salespeople share two important attributes--great organizational skills, and they have a sales plan. That's what The Organized Selling Plan is about. There can be little doubt that whatever you sell, you probably have great product knowledge and a good understanding of what your products and services can do to benefit your customers. That's a given. A salesperson who is not an "expert" about the product or service they're selling is destined to be a completely ineffective salesperson. It is the responsibility of the salesperson to be able to explain in detail how each product or service works, what value it offers, and the reasons that it is right for your customers. Expert product knowledge is one of the few things that separates the top salespeople from the rest. However, they also have a strategy, which organizes and defines their sales plan, establishes goals and objectives, and identifies the steps needed to ensure success. This book addresses all the necessary "steps to the sale" that must be executed with precision to ensure your success. Lacking proficiency in any one or more of these "steps" could be costing you sales and commissions. Sales is all about knowledge, and knowledge is power. The ultimate goal is for you to use this information to develop your own "organized selling plan" and excel at whatever you sell. Wishing you nothing but success!

Technology and Postmodern Subjectivity in Don DeLillo's Novels

Technology and Postmodern Subjectivity in Don DeLillo's Novels

By: Randy Laist

More than any other major American author, Don DeLillo has examined the manner in which contemporary American consciousness has been shaped by the historically unique incursion into daily life of information, military, and consumer technologies. In DeLillo's fictions, technological apparatuses are not merely set-pieces in the characters' environments, nor merely tools to move the plot along, they are sites of mystery and magic, whirlpools of space-time, and convex mirrors of identity. Television sets, filmic images, automobiles, airplanes, telephones, computers, and nuclear bombs are not simply objects in the world for DeLillo's characters; they are psychological phenomena that shape the possibilities for action, influence the nature of perception, and incorporate themselves into the fabric of memory and identity. DeLillo is a phenomenologist of the contemporary technoscape and an ecologist of our new kind of natural habitat. Through a close reading of four DeLillo novels, Technology and Postmodern Subjectivity in Don DeLillo's Novels examines the variety of modes in which DeLillo's fictions illustrate the technologically mediated confluence of his human subjects and the field of cultural objects in which they discover themselves. The model of interactionism between human beings and technological instruments that is implicit in DeLillo's writing suggests significant applications both to the study of other contemporary novelists as well as to contemporary cultural studies.
