Download or read book Laid Bare written by Jesse Fink and published by Hachette Australia. This book was released on 2012-09-11 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you've had your heart broken/been on the dating scene/had sex, read Laid Bare. Unputdownable.' Kerri Sackville, author of The Little Book of Anxiety on LAID BARE A nakedly honest account of one man's emotional and mental oblivion after separation and divorce. And how online dating and sex saved him from despair. Jesse Fink never thought it would happen to him. But it did. His wife of ten years and mother of his child walked out on him and into the arms of another man. In that moment he lost his best friend, his soul mate, his family, his identity. His wife's new lover even got his dog. What came next was a freefall of the soul that would take him from contemplating cutting his wrists to sleeping with hundreds of women. He jumped headlong into the brutal and sometimes dangerous world of online dating. He visited brothels and massage parlours. He fell for a prostitute. He flew off to Hollywood to connect with a beautiful woman he met online and found himself in the kitchen of the real-life Bridget Jones. With remarkable frankness, Jesse opens up about his complicity in the failure of his marriage, his battles with OCD, his struggles as a single dad, his sex addiction and his desperate desire to find love. He shares it all - the good, the bad and the ugly. His chance at personal salvation finally comes in the unconditional love of his eight-year-old daughter. Next time, if he pays attention, he might just get it right. PRAISE for LAID BARE 'A great book' Australian Penthouse 'X-rated, honest and compelling, this is a must-read for any man dating online.'

Thomas Jane, star of HUNG 'Fink, an awarded sports journalist, is an excellent writer and storyteller and his book is compelling reading.' The Daily Telegraph (Sydney) and The Courier-Mail (Brisbane)
Download or read book Brands Laid Bare written by Kevin Ford and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2005-05-05 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The way we relate to brands has changed. Once, brand management was about doing things to people, and choices were made by brand managers not consumers. Now the focus has shifted towards the customer, empowering them to make choices and treating them as individuals rather than an amorphous mass. A consequence of this is increased interest in understanding people as a foundation for brand management. And this is where market research can come in. By drawing on market research to understand consumers, marketers can better understand how to manage their brand. Exploring a spectrum of 12 customer needs and drawing on first-hand research evidence, Kevin Ford provides a proven framework for understanding what people are really looking for from a brand - and delivering it.

Download or read book Laid Bare written by Tom Judson and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2011-11-09 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What's it like turning a trick at a luxury hotel in midtown Manhattan? How are hay bales made on a small family farm? Why isn't there a porn stars' union? Have you ever been busted for drugs in Oklahoma? How do you make a Negroni cocktail? What is the technical name for candy corn? And how much will a tin of SPAM set you back when you're visiting the Caribbean? And what could these things possibly have in common? They're just some of the subjects covered by Tom Judson in this collection of essays. Fans of Gus Mattox (Tom's stage persona while working in gay porn) were the first to encounter the surprisingly tender tone of Tom's writing through posts on his blog, "Gus's Soapbox." Soon he began writing under his own name for magazines and newspapers around the globe, bringing the unique perspective and insight of someone who has seen life up close from perspectives most of us can only imagine. This volume contains the essays most frequently requested by his readers. "What a pleasure to have Tom Judson's delightfully insightful, funny and wise book of essays at one's fingertips. He was the Gypsy Rose Lee of Porn, but now he's 'Tom Judson, Author' and just as delicious." --Charles Busch, author of Vampire Lesbians of Sodom
Download or read book Damp Squid written by Jeremy Butterfield and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-23 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When James Murray compiled the OED in the 19th century, he used a small army of volunteers--and thousands upon thousands of paper slips--to track down the English language. Today, linguists use massive computer power--including the world's largest language databank, the Oxford Corpus, which contains more than two billion words--to determine for the first time definitively how the English language is used. From evidence contained in the gargantuan Oxford Corpus, Jeremy Butterfield here uncovers a wealth of fascinating facts about the English language. Where does our vocabulary come from? How do word meanings change? How is our language really being used? This entertaining book has the up-to-date and authoritative answers to all the key questions about our language. Butterfield takes a thorough look at the English language and exposes its peculiarities and penchants, its development and difficulties, revealing exactly how it operates. We learn, for instance, that we use language in chunks of words--as one linguist put it, "we know words by the company that they keep." For instance, the word quintessentially is joined half the time with a nationality--something is "quintessentially American" or "quintessentially British." Using such observations, Butterfield explains how dictionary makers decide which words to include, how they find definitions, and how the Corpus influences the process. Covering all areas of English, from spelling and idioms to the future of English, and with entertaining examples and useful charts throughout, this compelling and lively book will delight word lovers everywhere.
