Would you rather get a root canal than face a group of strangers? Does the phrase “working a room” make you want to retreat to yours? Devora Zack, an avowed introvert and successful consultant who gives presentations to thousands of people at dozens of events annually, feels your pain. She found that other networking books assume that to succeed, you have to act like an extrovert. Not at all. There is another way. Zack politely examines and then smashes to tiny fragments the “dusty old rules” of standard networking advice. She shows how the very traits that make many people hate networking can be harnessed to forge an approach more effective and user-friendly than traditional techniques. This edition adds new material on applying networking principles in personal situations, handling interview questions, following up—what do you do with all those business cards?—and more. Networking enables you to accomplish the goals that are most important to you. But you can't adopt a style that goes against who you are—and you don't have to. As Zack writes, “You do not succeed by denying your natural temperament; you succeed by working with your strengths.”

The twelve stories in Teach the Free Man mark the impressive debut of Peter Nathaniel Malae. The subject of incarceration thematically links the stories, yet their range extends beyond the prison's barbed wire and iron bars. Avoiding sensationalism, Malae exposes the heart and soul in those dark, seemingly inaccessible corridors of the human experience. The stories, often raw and startlingly honest, are distinguished by the colloquial voices of California's prison inmates, who, despite their physical and cultural isolation, confront dilemmas with which we can all identify: the choice to show courage against peer pressure; the search for individual rights within a bureaucracy; and the desperate desire for honor in the face of great sacrifice. These stories present polished and poetic examples of finding something redemptive in the least among us. The book's epigraph by W. H. Auden, from which the book takes its title, exemplifies the spirit of these dynamic stories: In the deserts of the heart Let the healing fountain start. In the prison of his days Teach the free man how to praise.

In these two crime novels, a veteran Toronto cop puts his firsthand experience on the page—“characters ring true, and the gritty side of Toronto shows” (Library Journal). Lethal Rage New to Toronto’s infamous 51 Division, officer Jack Warren finds himself thrown into a brutal war against a crack-cocaine dealer determined to dominate the city’s drug trade. Working with the division’s elite major-crime unit, Jack soon learns the unspoken difference between law and justice—and how cops manage to survive in the 51. Savage Rage Transferred to 53 Division—known as the “Sleepy Hollow of Toronto”—after the murder of his partner, Jack is desperate to return to 51 Division, where his former colleagues are battling a criminal mastermind. Randall Kayne’s bloody crimes are hitting close to home in 51 Division, yet he manages to stay just one step ahead of the police. Although Jack’s wife wants him to leave the force entirely, an old enemy soon drags him into the Kayne case—and a deadly confrontation that will either change his life or end it.

George S. Patton Jr. lived an exciting life in war and peace, but he is best remembered for his World War II battlefield exploits. Patton’s War: An American General’s Combat Leadership: November 1942–July 1944, the first of three volumes, follows the general from the beaches of Morocco to the fields of France, right before the birth of Third Army on the continent. In highly engaging fashion, Kevin Hymel uncovers new facts and challenges long-held beliefs about the mercurial Patton, not only examining his relationships with his superiors and fellow generals and colonels, but also with the soldiers of all ranks whom he led. Using new sources unavailable to previous historians and through extensive research of soldiers’ memoirs and interviews, Hymel adds a new dimension to the telling of Patton’s WWII story.

The book of Revelation is almost certainly the most controversial book of the Bible. Some believe the prophesies contained in the book can never be understood; they are a mystery that cannot be revealed and the reading of Revelation is therefore a waste of time. Many believe that the book tells of the coming tribulations that our generation or one of the succeeding ones will face, that the rapture will yet take place and that the millenium has not yet begun. Then there are those who fall in between the two extremes, saying that we are in the millenium, or that the rapture has already occurred; that the prophecies have all been fulfilled or that some have been and some are yet to be.
