From the founder of the Wu-Tang Clan—celebrating their 25th anniversary this year—an inspirational book for the hip hop fan. The RZA, founder of the Wu-Tang Clan, imparts the lessons he's learned on his journey from the Staten Island projects to international superstardom. A devout student of knowledge in every form in which he's found it, he distills here the wisdom he's acquired into seven "pillars," each based on a formative event in his life-from the moment he first heard the call of hip-hop to the death of his cousin and Clan- mate, Russell Jones, aka ODB. Delivered in RZA's unmistakable style, at once surprising, profound, and provocative, The Tao of Wu is a spiritual memoir the world has never seen before, and will never see again. A nonfiction Siddhartha for the hip-hop generation from the author of The Wu-Tang Manual, it will enlighten, entertain, and inspire.
The Wu-Tang Manual is The RZA’s first written introduction to the philosophy and history of Hip-Hop’s original Dynasty, the Wu-Tang Clan. Written in a style that is at once personal and philosophical, The Wu-Tang Manual unravels the intricate web of personalities (and alter egos), warrior codes, numerological systems, and Eastern spiritual ethics that define the Wu-Tang dynasty. Packed with information that reflects the breadth and depth of the RZA’s — and rest of the Clan’s — intellectual interests and passions, The Wu-Tang Manual is divided into four books of nine chambers each, for a total of 36 chambers. All together, the book provides the breakdown of essential Wu-Tang components, from basic information about each of the nine core members of Wu-Tang Clan to deeper explorations of the key themes of the Wu-Tang universe, a dictionary-like Wu-Slang lexicon, and an entire section of Wu-Tang lyrics with densely annotated explanations of what they mean. For the hardcore Wu-Tang disciple and the recent initiate alike, The Wu-Tang Manual is the definitive guide to the essence of Wu, one of the most innovative hip-hop groups of all time. The RZA's most recent book, The Tao of Wu, is also available from Riverhead Books.

The Culture. The Business. Your Health. Coffee isn't just a beverage: it's now a part of our culture and has become as ingrained in our lives as food and water. It's been known as "the best part of waking up" and "good to the last drop," and of course there's "but first, coffee!" From that steaming cup in the morning to the afternoon break that helps push us to the end of our days, it is never far from hand. And now the varieties are endless, whether you're purchasing in a store, boutique coffee shop, or making in the office pantry: Whether topped by foam, mixed with a splash of milk, blended with ice and caramel syrup, or knocked back as a shot of espresso, how we take our coffee is as personal as the music we listen to, the books we read, or how we dress. Coffee: The Culture. The Business. Your Health., the new Special Edition from the editors of TIME, brews up a rich blend of everything you'd want to know about where your beans are sourced, how they're roasted to suit a wide variety of palates, and what to buy if you're willing to spend $600 a pound. Coffee is no longer just a dollar drink that you buy in a diner or from a street cart (though those that favor them are very loyal), it can also be a gourmet experience crafted by the hands of baristas who are more artists than bartenders, with consumers willing to pay up to $10 for a single cup. TIME Coffee explores the rise of industry giant Starbucks, the resurgence of café culture, and how essential the coffee shop has become in its form as an office away from the office. We also look at the health benefits of the daily grind: what are the perks of coffee consumption and how much is too much? Let Coffee help unlock the culture and business behind the most American of beverages.
Written by the Mercedarian friar Martín de Murúa, the Historia general del Piru (1616) is one of only three extant illustrated manuscripts on the history of Inca and early colonial Peru. This immensely important Andean manuscript is here made available in facsimile, its beautifully calligraphed text reproduced in halftone and its thirty-eight hand-colored images—mostly portraits of Inca kings and queens—in color.
