How To Lose Friends And Alienate People

A Memoir

By: Toby Young

In 1995 high-flying British journalist Toby Young left London for New York to become a contributing editor at Vanity Fair. Other Brits had taken Manhattan-Alistair Cooke then, Anna Wintour now-so why couldn't he? But things didn't quite go according to plan. Within the space of two years he was fired from Vanity Fair, banned from the most fashionable bar in the city, and couldn't get a date for love or money. Even the local AA group wanted nothing to do with him. How to Lose Friends and Alienate People is Toby Young's hilarious account of the five years he spent looking for love in all the wrong places and steadily working his way down the New York food chain, from glossy magazine editor to crash-test dummy for interactive sex toys. But it's more than "the longest self-deprecating joke since the complete works of Woody Allen" (Sunday Times); it's also a seditious attack on the culture of celebrity from inside the belly of the beast. And there's even a happy ending, as Toby Young marries-"for proper, noncynical reasons," as he puts it-the woman of his dreams. "Some people are lucky enough to stumble across the right path straight away; most of us only discover what the right one is by going down the wrong one first." "I'll rot in hell before I give that little bastard a quote for his book." -- Julie Burchill "A relentlessly brilliant book-a What Makes Sammy Run for the twenty-first century . . . the funniest, cleverest, most touching new book I've read for as long as I can remember." -- Julie Burchill, The Spectator

Dynasty and Diplomacy in the Court of Savoy

Political Culture and the Thirty Years' War

By: Toby Osborne

This book is a major study in English of the duchy of Savoy during the period of the Thirty Years War. Rather than examining Savoy purely in terms of its military or geo-strategic role, Dynasty and Diplomacy in the Court of Savoy comprises three interwoven strands: the dynastic ambitions of the ruling House of Savoy, the family interests of an elite clan in ducal service, and the unique role played by one member of that clan, Abate Alessandro Scaglia (1592-1641), who emerged as one of Europe's most widely known diplomats. Scaglia, the focus of the book, affords insights not only into Savoyard court politics and diplomacy, but more generally into a diplomatic culture of seventeenth-century Europe. With his image fixed by a remarkable series of Van Dyck portraits, Scaglia is emblematic of an international network of princes, diplomats, courtiers and artists, at the point of contact between dynasticism, high politics and the arts.

A Philosophical Guide to Chance

Physical Probability

By: Toby Handfield

It is a commonplace that scientific inquiry makes extensive use of probabilities, many of which seem to be objective chances, describing features of reality that are independent of our minds. Such chances appear to have a number of paradoxical or puzzling features: they appear to be mind-independent facts, but they are intimately connected with rational psychology; they display a temporal asymmetry, but they are supposed to be grounded in physical laws that are time-symmetric; and chances are used to explain and predict frequencies of events, although they cannot be reduced to those frequencies. This book offers an accessible and non-technical introduction to these and other puzzles. Toby Handfield engages with traditional metaphysics and philosophy of science, drawing upon recent work in the foundations of quantum mechanics and thermodynamics to provide a novel account of objective probability that is empirically informed without requiring specialist scientific knowledge.

The Winemakers Reckoning

The Winemakers Reckoning

By: Toby Lewis

A friend once told me that the Emancipation Proclamation was written by a person with blinders on. I asked him why he thought that was, and his answer was that the author of the document left out the part that excluded the Native Americans and the black people. Negro men and red men both fought side by side with their white counterparts in the American Revolution and the bloody Civil War. More Americans, black and white, died in the Civil War than any other war in American history. “All men are created equal except for the black man and the red man” is the way my friend said it. It should have been written for good ole Honest Abe. The Winemakers Reckoning is what became of some of history’s survivors.

Building Your Future As Young Africans

A Success And Nation Building Course Handbook

By: Dipo Toby Alakija

Going by world history, mankind is always faced with all kinds of challenges that are peculiar to each nation but the patriotic or unpatriotic attitudes of the citizens always determine if the country would overcome the problems or not. Many African youths who see and feel the problems in their countries sometimes blame the Governments. Consequently, a lot of them are enlisted as rebels who often times fight against their Governments. They are also involved in crimes, terrorism and other atrocities without realizing their deadly implications in future. Youths are often ignorant of the fact that what they do today will determine what their tomorrow and the future of their countries would be. This book makes serious attempts to help both youths and adults in Africa to understand the normal process of real success through the resource materials inside. The author explains how problems can be seen as opportunities to excel in life, using real life stories as cases for studies, quoting relevant authorities to buttress his points. The book is also designed to teach African youths of the need to build their nations by encouraging them to enhance their values through skill acquisitions, setting goals and making best use of their potentials and the available resources.

When Janet made him a Christian, however, life began to make sense to him until the day he was beaten to the point of death for the offence he knew nothing about. He left the town for the city which, unknown to him, held his true identity and the link to his parents in the United States. To find them was only a question of time.

Constructing Neurology

By then he had already published widely and had assembled a team of research specialists and students who approached the study of the nervous system through the celebrated methode anatomo-clinique that correlated specific neurological signs with discrete lesions in the central nervous system. Pushing beyond the bounds of anatomical study, Charcot went on to study hysteria, attracting both scientific and social notoriety.

The Remarkable Mr and Mrs Johnson

Founders of Modern Australia’s First Church, Schools and Charity, and Friends of Aboriginal People, 1788–1800

By: Toby Raeburn

The British invasion and colonisation of Aboriginal Australia were brutal processes that caused immense suffering. But how should otherwise good people who contributed to such events be remembered? With this question in mind, The Remarkable Mr and Mrs Johnson, explores the lives of colonial New South Wales’ pioneer chaplain, the Reverend Richard Johnson, and his wife Mary. Drawing heavily on eighteenth and nineteenth-century sources, the book traces early influences that led the Johnsons to join the First Fleet, then describes their pioneering work in the colony, founding the first schools, building the first church, and pioneering British charity. Amid the suffering caused by the British invasion, the Johnsons also built a remarkable friendship with a young Aboriginal girl named Boorong, who became an influential intermediary during the early years of colonisation. Their lives have something to teach us about adaptation, survival, and humility.

Successful Christianity And Basic Ministries

A Collection Of Christian Resoource Materials

By: Dipo Toby Alakija

The first question is how Christianity is practiced even in a hostile environment. Next to that is the question about the potentials of Christians in spite of their apparent limitations. The other issues are connected to the successes, deliverance, callings, basic ministries of all Christians and evangelism. Various schools of thoughts have attempted these questions but many answers only portray Christianity as a form of religion instead of a way of life as specified by God. Some answers give room for compromise, hypocrisies, dogmas and denominational doctrines. The misconceptions about these areas of Christianity have brought about worldliness instead of righteousness and false achievements instead of fulfillment. This book which contains six different subjects had been used to hold seminars at various levels, train ministers and Christian workers in Bible Schools and to equip the Church. It explains in simple terms the seemingly complex issues on practice of Christianity, Potentials, Deliverance, God's Kind Of Success, Evangelism and Basic Ministries of a Christian with Biblical principles, life transforming stories and illustrations.

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Wyndham Lewis and the Avant-Garde

The Politics of the Intellect

By: Toby Avard Foshay

Toby Foshay's penetrating study of Lewis presents a two-pronged argument that will help to lift Lewis from this obscurity. First, he reveals that Lewis is less interested in stylistic and formal innovation than he is committed to artistic, philosophical, and political transformations. As such, Lewis is not a modernist but, in the sense of the term as employed by theoretician Peter Burger, an avant-gardiste. Second, Foshay demonstrates that Lewis's development as an artist is inextricably linked to his avant-garde commitments -- commitments that find their roots in Lewis's reading of Nietzsche. Lewis's fiction and criticism must thus be read, Foshay maintains, as developing interdependently throughout his career and in relation to his evolving interpretation of Nietzsche. Foshay's insightful critique of Lewis's relation to the Modernist movement on the one hand, and of his development as an artist and critic on the other, offers a revised reading not only of Modernism itself but of what Lewis can teach us about the relation of thought to the practice of art in modernity.

Writings from Ancient Egypt

By: Toby Wilkinson

Man perishes; his corpse turns to dust; all his relatives pass away. But writings make him remembered' In ancient Egypt, words had magical power. Inscribed on tombs and temple walls, coffins and statues, or inked onto papyri, hieroglyphs give us a unique insight into the life of the Egyptian mind. Egyptologist Toby Wilkinson has freshly translated a rich and diverse range of ancient Egyptian writings into modern English, including tales of shipwreck and wonder, obelisk inscriptions, mortuary spells, funeral hymns, songs, satires and advice on life from a pharaoh to his son. Spanning over two millennia, this is the essential guide to a complex, sophisticated culture. Translated with an Introduction by Toby Wilkinson

Coconut Wireless

Funny Cozy Cat Mystery in Hawaii

By: Toby Neal

If you like the Miss Fortune series, you'll love Kat and her clue crew on Maui!" ~Reviewer The coconut wireless is humming in Ohia, Maui, and the latest topic of gossip is me, Kat Smith. I’m Secret Service, not Postal Service—but I feel like a criminal when I’m appointed postmaster to a cozy little village on Maui. Turns out I’ve stolen a well-earned promotion from beloved Auntie Pua Chang, who’s been there forever—but all I want to do is hide out in paradise until the witch hunt to kill my career is over. I haven’t been in Ohia a day when Tiki the post office cat brings a prize to my doorstep—a piece of the woman who had the job before me. I’m thrust into the middle of a murder mystery, and if I don’t help solve it, I might be next—but it’s hard to tell whom to trust. A fortune-telling general store owner, a hunky Hawaiian pilot, Tiki the cat, and a couple of well-meaning cops named Lei and Pono seem to want to help—but they're all Auntie Pua supporters, and she'd be happy to see the last of me. This Hawaii village has more factions than a Mafia convention in Vegas, and I’m on my own tracking a killer with only a grumpy cat for backup. “Can't stop reading and chuckling! Kat is my new favorite heroine!”~ Reviewer

THE MAP OF TWO ETERNAL DESTINATIONS

A Collection Of Sixty Illustrative Sermons With Life-Transforming Stories For Missionary Works, Group And Personal Studies

By: Dipo Toby Alakija

Most people are oblivious of the fact that the world is fast coming to an end despite the warnings of Jesus Christ in Mark 13:7- 22 where the signs of the inevitable destruction of the world are revealed. These signs include wars with nations rising against nations, earthquakes in various places, famines, pandemic, depressions, persecutions of Christians, abominations of desolations, lock-down and other tribulations. Despite these events which are obvious fulfillment of these prophesies in these modern days, most people; including Christians are still not prepared for eternity. In order to prepare Christians and inform every other person about eternal destinations, these illustrative and authoritative sermons which are delivered by the preacher and author of this book to hundreds of thousands of people online are compiled for group or personal studies. The author uses real life events and illustrations to explain the mysteries of the two eternities, teaching the ways to reach each of destinations as revealed in the Bible.

Angles of Vision

An Introduction to Literature

By: Arthur W. Biddle,Toby Fulwiler

This exciting literature anthology is the brainchild of a workshop at the University of Vermont during which literature professors discussed effective ways to teach reading and responding to the genres - fiction, poetry, drama, and the essay. Introductions to each genre are written by teams of workshop participants. In kind, the anthology stresses collaboration in both learning and writing. The selections are especially contemporary, with many pieces written from multi-cultural perspectives by multi-ethnic writers. Angles of Vision is right for both the second semester of freshman composition and introduction to literature classes with an emphasis on writing.

Endurance: The Toby Price Story

By: Toby Price

The Australian bush has conjured up some crazy legends, but the rise and rise of two-time Dakar champion Toby Price is surely one of its best. Who knew that the remote town of Roto (pop. 41) would be the launching pad of one of the greatest motorsports athletes the world has seen, fit to tackle and triumph over the planet’s most gruelling endurance race? Toby Price has lived a truly remarkable life, filled with ups, downs and every bump in the road imaginable: a childhood racing prodigy from the tender age of 2 – there was hardly a paddock that could contain him. After tearing through the junior ranks, taking out titles in both dirt track and motocross, Toby was living the dream, turning pro at 16 and joining the formidable KTM Racing team. Soon he was turning heads internationally and tapped to take on the most forbidding enduro courses the sport could throw at him. But the clock and the elements weren’t his only adversaries. The death of his adored sister, Min; the tragic loss of mentors and rivals in the desert; countless broken bones and an accident that should have paralysed him for life – Toby’s story is a study in staying true to yourself and following your passion to its ultimate end: rain, hail or shine. The person who emerged from the crucible of so many trials is now one of the most beloved figures in Australian sport, a kid from the country whose need for speed took him to the top of the podium – and he’s not about to slow down now.
