Too secular for church, too much Holy Spirit for polite conversation.If they'd lived in our times, the rich young man in the Bible and Mary Magdalene might have gone to high school together. *****At a flea market one Saturday morning, Thomas Strongtree, a retired woodworker, buys a pack of police-arrest fingerprint cards and mug shots for teenagers detained during the 1970s, '80s, and '90s. As a man who always followed the rules and now battles creeping regret in his later years, Strongtree wonders how their lives may have differed from his own. The "youthful offenders" would now be adults, and he wants to meet them. A lawyer warns Strongtree the project could be dangerous. "If one of those guys turns out to be a judge or a minister, you'd be looking at a world of hurt for the rest of your life." Strongtree does it anyway, and as he talks to the young people, now adults, he hears life stories that echo and expand upon the great parables of the Bible. When his activities threaten to drop him into a legal hornet's nest, he uses knowledge gleaned from a wise police patrolman who resembles the Bible's rich young man and touched all of the young people's lives.From a meeting with a school superintendent in New Jersey to an unforgettable conversation one afternoon and evening on Lake Chautauqua to an encounter with an eighty-one-year-old woman aerospace engineer, this book will leave readers reflecting on their own struggles, triumphs, regrets, and joys as they journey alongside Strongtree on his exceptional quest.

It's 1967 in California's magical City by the Bay- a bold new era of sex, drugs, rock 'n' roll...and murder. Graduating from UC Berkeley just as the Summer of Love begins, twin brothers Jack and Bobby Doyle forge two different career paths. Jack heads off to Vietnam to serve his country, while Bobby remains in the Bay Area, immersing himself in the world of music journalism. As the summer progresses, both brothers witness death firsthand for the first time, Jack on the battlefield and Bobby on the drug-infested streets of San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury district. Their experiences are equally shattering, with Jack losing newfound comrades-in-arms and Bobby enduring the murders of two women he'd grown close to. Bobby's traumas become as threatening as Jack's daily perils when he falls under suspicion in the murder investigations. Conferring with Jack by letter, Bobby tries to discover who actually committed the crimes. As the Summer of Love draws to a close, stunning events overtake the entire Doyle family.

Secret Heroes is a remarkable compendium by Paul Martin, former Executive Editor of National Geographic Traveler, that illuminates the lives of thirty forgotten American heroes. Gathering together remarkable stories about unknown champions, explorers, inventors, and innovators who never made the pages of American history textbooks--not George Washington, but the tailor who saved his life...twice; the first African-American combat pilot; the 62-year-old female muckraking journalist who refused to turn her back on injustice--Secret Heroes is just the sort of fascinating and fun popular history that readers love, not unlike Kenneth C. Davis's bestselling Don't Know Much About(R) series and Rick Beyer's The Greatest Stories Never Told.

In diesem Roman sind Schicksal, spätes Outing mit begleitendem schwerem Burnout und eine sich daraus entwickelnde Depression mit Angst und Panikattacken ein Thema. Über Robert wird berichtet, wie er belastende Flashbacks aus seiner Kindheit erlebt, die ihn bis heute prägen. Er verliebt sich nach Jahren des Haderns mit sich selbst in einen Mann, den er aus seiner Jugendzeit kennt, er outet sich vor seiner Familie, verliert sie dadurch vollständig und die Welle, die darauf folgt, nimmt ihm die Luft zum Atmen. Robert erlebt in dieser Zeit eine Achterbahn der Gefühle und entdeckt dabei ein altes Familiengeheimnis. Die folgenden Schicksalsschläge an denen er sich die Schuld gibt, würden ihn überrollen, wenn da nicht der Enddreißiger Christoph wäre, der das nicht zulässt, dass sein Eisbär einfach so aufgibt. Ich hoffe, dass jeder in seinem Leben so einen Christoph findet. Ich habe ihn jedenfalls gefunden und gebe ihn nie wieder her.

'A masterpiece of popularization' Times Literary Supplement'A fascinating account, based on objective scientific research, of the ways in which mental states affect the individual's liability to disease... Martin is a highly civilised scientist, who seasons his text with witty parentheses. He also provides many examples from literature, ranging widely from Shakespeare, Goethe and Hardy to Tolstoy, Dostoevsky and Kafka... Interesting, informative and a pleasure to read.' ANTHONY STORR, Sunday Times'Excellent' JON TURNEY, Financial Times'This most accessible account of a difficult subject blows away some prejudices and pleasingly justifies others... Martin is a biologist whose style is considerate of the layman...and it is a tribute to his own benignly infectious enthusiasm for his subject that his closing thoughts are encouraging... Remarkable.' ALAN JUDD, Daily Telegraph'Compelling... Balanced and impressively up to date... The tone of voice, the open-minded but critical intelligence should uplift the quality of the debate... Martin's lucid account of possible mechanisms of the connections between mental states and personality traits and illnesses is a notable triumph of his book... Excellent.' RAYMOND TALLIS, Times Literary Supplement
