Receiving a diagnosis of autism is a major crisis for parents and families, who often feel as if their world has come to an end. In this insightful narrative, a courageous and inspiring mother explains why a diagnosis of autism doesn't have to shatter a family's dreams of happiness. Senator offers the hard-won, in-the-trenches wisdom of someone who's been there and is still there today—and she demonstrates how families can find courage, contentment, and connection in the shadow of autism. In Making Peace with Autism, Susan Senator describes her own journey raising a child with a severe autism spectrum disorder, along with two other typically developing boys. Without offering a miracle treatment or cure, Senator offers valuable strategies for coping successfully with the daily struggles of life with an autistic child. Along the way she models the combination of stamina and courage, openness, and humor that has helped her family to survive—and even to thrive. Topics include: the agony of diagnosis, grieving and acceptance, finding the right school program, helping siblings with their struggles and concerns, having fun together, and keeping the marriage strong.

The story of Ben & Jerry’s and its controversial acquisition by Unilever, based on interviews with insiders and “rich in details” (Kirkus Reviews). Ben & Jerry’s has always been committed to an insanely ambitious three-part mission: making the world’s best ice cream, supporting progressive causes, and sharing the company’s success with all stakeholders: employees, suppliers, distributors, customers, cows, everybody. But it hasn’t been easy. This is the first book to tell the full, inside story of the inspiring rise, tragic mistakes, devastating fall, determined recovery, and ongoing renewal of one of the most iconic mission-driven companies in the world. No previous book has focused so intently on the challenges presented by staying true to that mission. No other book has explained how the company came to be sold to corporate giant Unilever or how that relationship evolved to allow Ben & Jerry’s to pursue its mission on a much larger stage. Journalist Brad Edmondson tells the story with an eye for details, dramatic moments, and memorable characters. He interviewed dozens of key figures, particularly Jeff Furman, who helped Ben and Jerry write their first business plan in 1978 and became chairman of the board in 2010. It’s a funny, sad, surprising, and ultimately hopeful story.

On December 18, 1944, a twenty-one-year-old American soldier named Max Gendelman was captured by the Germans during one of the greatest battles ever fought in any American war-the Battle of the Bulge. He was one of only a handful of men in his company to survive, witnessing unimaginable horrors at the hands of the Germans. Taken prisoner, he and a small group of other soldiers were marched through German villages and taken to the location where he would spend the next several months of his life, each day wondering if it would be his last. Max Gendelman perhaps had more reason than most to worry. Although born and raised in Milwaukee, Gendelman was a Jew. A Tale of Two Soldiers is not simply a tale of surviving the atrocities of war. While imprisoned in the POW camp, a chance meeting with a lieutenant in the German Luftwaffe changed the course of Max's life. Karl Kirschner, conscripted against his will, spoke to Max one day through the prison camp fence, and the two young men discovered a shared passion for chess. During clandestine chess games, they also shared conversation, learning about each other and their families, and they ultimately came to a decision: they would help each other escape. Max Gendelman's poignant memoir, which he completed just one month before Ins death in June 2012, is a striking depiction of the worst of man's inhumanity to man, but even more, it is an inspiring, heartwarming, and uplifting tribute to an unlikely friendship that endured for more than six decades. Max Gendelman was an extraordinary man, and A Tale of Two Soldiers is an extraordinary book. Gendelman's words will stay with you long after you have turned the last page. Book jacket.
