2017 marks Chimanlal Nagindas Gandhi’s 80th birth year, and coincides with the 150th birthday of the nation of Canada where he currently lives. To commemorate both occasions, Gandhi has written ‘ I Did It My Ways',* by Chiman Gandhi a book that explores the journey of a young man leaving India for the west. Gandhi previously authored a book called Healigion addressing the good influences of world religions but condemning the blind faith that results in violent conflict and most wars. This new book is a biography, where the reader sees glimpses of Gandhi’s philosophies about treating people, raising children and particularly in his analysis of religious impact. Gandhi shares many of his views about the Hindu religion and measures religious doctrine against faith. He addresses the hierarchy of the Hindu Caste System with questions like: • Why was India easily conquered first by the Muslims and then by Europeans? • Does the theory of Karma (and other religious rituals prevalent in Hindu customs) result in an unjust society? • Has the price of Ahimsa been a Hindu society that is cowardly? • Will Hinduism become a minority faith in India based on current assymetric demographic trends? This question uses the scholarly investigation charted by Dr. J.K. Bajaj Gandhi’s inquiry of these important topics results in the reader questioning religious ritual and a hope that it ends in a clearer understanding of one’s own religious beliefs.

Anyone who's tuned in to a White Sox game during the past four decades has heard his calls and catchphrases: "Mercy " "Rack 'em up " "He gone " Ken Harrelson is a man who knows how to talk and is brimming with stories, but even the most dedicated fans haven't heard them all; many of "Hawk's" most memorable tales are simply not suitable for television broadcasts. Now, in his memoir, Harrelson opens up on a wide variety of topics, from his volatile childhood, to life in the major leagues, to stints as a professional golfer and MLB general manager, and of course his storied years in the broadcast booth. He minces no words when reflecting on brawls, blowups, and encounters with figures ranging from Mickey Mantle and Arnold Palmer to Frank Sinatra and Bobby Kennedy. Packed with the enthusiasm and candor audiences have come to expect, Hawk is a no-holds-barred look at a singular life and career.

"What happens when Tony Soprano meets Deepak Chopra? That's how people have described my story. I might throw some Woody Allen in there and a dash of Hunter S. Thompson." So says Frank Ferrante of his amazing journey from obesity and drug addiction to vibrant health and happiness. At 54 years old, Ferrante was the least likely candidate for a major personal transformation. He weighed close to 300 pounds and suffered from a slew of issues that were his unhappy legacy as an ex-junkie and ex-alcoholic: hepatitis C, chronic fatigue, joint pain, respiratory issues, depression, suicidal thoughts, and a libido that had gone into early retirement. He thought that "vegan" was a planet, "wellness" was not in his vocabulary, and he couldn't be bothered with self-help. He was for those very reasons the best candidate for a major personal transformation. One day, he stumbled into Caf Gratitude--a vegan raw food restaurant run by three 20-something hipsters. Unbeknownst to him, they'd been thinking about finding someone to put on a raw food diet and making a documentary that would be the polar opposite of Super Size Me. Ferrante was looking for something, anything, to create a shift in his life. As he says, "Like zillions of people, I was hungry not so much for food, but for love." Never mind that he was old enough to be the boys' father or that he'd ridiculed the New Age herd for years--he accepted them pretty much on the spot as his new "transformational cheerleaders." With the young men's unexpected support and guidance, Ferrante began a redemptive odyssey that included a plant-based diet, yoga, and daily affirmations--but then faced a battle for his life when his underlying addictions rose up to claim him. May I Be Frank chronicles Ferrante's experience of being the subject of a physical, mental, and spiritual makeover and also describes what happened next, post-transformation: he learned to love again.
