The Boss

A Novel

By: Stan Pottinger,Stanley Pottinger

Spin Patterson is a Texas Golden Boy who has it all-a company he's inherited from his father-in-law and built into a multi-billion dollar goliath, a wife as glamorous as she is ruthless-and a mysterious past. He also has a beautiful mistress, Tacoma Reed, a briliant part-Cherokee woman with ambitions of her own. When Spin's wife Audrey files for divorce and threatens to sue him for everything he's worth, he must protect his empire-even if it means resorting to fraud and violence. Max McLennon, Spin's devoted protege and executive assistant, has grown up in the shadow of oil rigs where he's seen his father killed and his brother horribly maimed. Now, as he watches the employees of his company threatened with bankruptcy by the very man he has admired like a father, he is forced to choose between loyalty and justice-between his mentor and the families and friends he grew up with. His choice must be made, but not without risking his own life and the life of the woman he loves.

The Boss

By: Stanley Pottinger

Spin Patterson is the legendary head of Gulf-Tex Oil. Self-made billionaire and charismatic leader, he is riding high and on the brink of announcing a revolutionary new technology that will raise the value of his company even higher. Max McLennon is his heir apparent and surrogate son, mentored by Spin after the death of his own father in an oil rig accident years before. But then things start going wrong: Spin's wife hits him with a massive divorce settlement; Gulf-Tex turns out to have been overstating its oil reserves; and the revolutionary technology hits a glitch. For a while it looks as if Spin's Midas touch is going to kick in and save them all. But then Max suspects that Spin's success has been bought at a terrible cost. Max's idol has feet of clay - but can he really also have a murderer's hands?

The Last Nazi

By: Stanley Pottinger

Lawyer Melissa Gale has dedicated her life to tracking down Nazis, in memory of her Holocaust survivor grandmother. Happily married to a Washington Post journalist, she is on the trail of a particularly elusive Nazi, Adalwolf, who always seems to be one step ahead of her, and who has apparently manufactured a lethal virus with which he is infecting random civilians. On a personal level, she is having fertility treatment for a much wanted baby. A debacle in which an American war veteran is killed in place of Adalwolf coincides with Melissa's pregnancy and she decides to work unofficially on the case for its duration. But Adalwolf has other ideas: Melissa's baby is a vital part of his genocidal plan, and the race is on. Can Melissa get to him before he gets to her?

Islands and Empires

Western Impact on the Pacific and East Asia

By: Ernest Stanley Dodge

Islands and Empires "was first published in 1976. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. This is the first one-volume account of the massive impact of Western civilization on the Pacific Islands and the Far East, principally China and Japan. The effects on the two areas were very different since, in the case of the islands, contact was with peoples who were still in the Stone Age, while in the Far East Westerners came up against sophisticated civilizations more ancient and mature than their own. Because of these differences, the book is divided into two sections, the first dealing with the Pacific Islands and the second with the East Asian mainland. Reverse influences--those of the Eastern cultures on the West--are also discussed.

My Share of the Task

A Memoir

By: General Stanley McChrystal

General McChrystal is a legendary warrior with a fine eye for enduring lessons about leadership, courage, and consequence." —Tom Brokaw General Stanley McChrystal is widely admired for his hunger to know the truth, his courage to find it, and his humility to listen to those around him. Even as the commanding officer of all U.S. and coalition forces in Afghanistan, he stationed himself forward and frequently went on patrols with his troops to experience their challenges firsthand. In this illuminating New York Times bestseller, McChrystal frankly explores the major episodes and controversies of his career. He describes the many outstanding leaders he served with and the handful of bad leaders he learned not to emulate. And he paints a vivid portrait of how the military establishment turned itself, in one generation, into the adaptive, resilient force that would soon be tested in Iraq, Afghanistan, and the wider War on Terror. "A compelling account of his impressive career." -The Wall Street Journal ' "This is a brilliant book about leadership wrapped inside a fascinating personal narrative." -Walter Isaacson, author of Steve Jobs Stanley McChrystal retired in July 2010 as a four-star general in the U.S. Army. His last assignment was as the commander of the International Security Assistance Force and as the commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan. He is currently a senior fellow at Yale University's Jackson Institute for Global Affairs and cofounder of the McChrystal Group, a leadership consulting firm. He and his wife, Annie, live in Virginia.

Ecology and Evolution of the Grass-Endophyte Symbiosis

By: Gregory P. Cheplick,Stanley Faeth

Endophytic fungi are common and diverse in plants. Yet the nature of their interactions with host plants, and how these interactions cascade upward to communities and ecosystems, is largely unknown. In the first book of its kind, Gregory P. Cheplick and Stanley H. Faeth synthesize existing studies of endophyte-grass symbioses within the context of modern ecological and evolutionary concepts. The authors cover a broad range of topics including the effects of endophytes on herbivory, host growth, physiology, reproduction, and competitive ability in a variety of grasses and environments. Clearly and engagingly written, Ecology and Evolution of the Grass-Endophyte Symbiosis highlights the most essential aspects of symbiosis ecology and evolution while suggesting avenues for future research.
