Rarely has a memoir about death been so full of life. . . . Bloom has a talent for mixing the prosaic and profound, the slapstick and the serious.”—USA Today ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: NPR Amy Bloom began to notice changes in her husband, Brian: He retired early from a new job he loved; he withdrew from close friendships; he talked mostly about the past. Suddenly, it seemed there was a glass wall between them, and their long walks and talks stopped. Their world was altered forever when an MRI confirmed what they could no longer ignore: Brian had Alzheimer’s disease. Forced to confront the truth of the diagnosis and its impact on the future he had envisioned, Brian was determined to die on his feet, not live on his knees. Supporting each other in their last journey together, Brian and Amy made the unimaginably difficult and painful decision to go to Dignitas, an organization based in Switzerland that empowers a person to end their own life with dignity and peace. In this heartbreaking and surprising memoir, Bloom sheds light on a part of life we so often shy away from discussing—its ending. Written in Bloom’s captivating, insightful voice and with her trademark wit and candor, In Love is an unforgettable portrait of a beautiful marriage, and a boundary-defying love.

Download or read book The Art of Starting Up written by Abhishek ANAND and published by ABHISHEK ANAND. This book was released on 2014-09-14 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The critical, yet sometimes missed out on things in starting your venture!" We all, at one point or the other, have fostered the idea of starting our own business. A lot of ideation, brainstorming, deliberation and preparation goes into it, and somewhere amidst all that hard work and excitement, the adrenaline rush is so high that we miss out on the supposedly common wisdom on how to go about the whole process. This book talks about those tiny nuggets, the common wisdom that is sometimes ignored, and sometimes even compromised upon. Every year you see more and more entrepreneurs venturing out into the unknown, despite being fully aware that the journey is going to be arduous, tedious, extremely difficult, and full of unforeseen challenges. One of the prime reasons behind them doing so is the fact that despite all those hardships, the overall process is one of the most enjoyable, memorable, and yet enriching experiences you would be having in your professional life. It accelerates your learning process, takes your career up a few notches in a really short period of time, and inculcates into you qualities that you never even knew you possessed, or could develop. But as with most of the new pathways, you would stumble multiple times during the course of the journey, and even find yourself unable to do things the way you think they should be done. Some of these setbacks you would be able to shrug off, some others would bring you down to your knees - albeit whether this 'being brought down to your knees' is temporary or permanent is something that will solely depend on you. This book makes an attempt to tell you of a number of scenarios you would be facing during the course of your startup, and make a recommendation on how to proceed for most of the scenarios, if not all. And if you are on the fence over the decision on whether to go for this book or not, let me ask you a few questions: Would you not prefer to be aware of some of the challenges that lie ahead of you? And if possible, know how to get past them once they do pose you in due course? What if you had some idea as to the bottlenecks you can face, the reasons why you would be possibly facing them, and how could you possibly avoid them (or at least get out of the jam)? There would be a lot of times when you would be posed with a question in the early stages of your startup, and the answer though right in front of you, wouldn't just feel right. Does it not make sense to see what are the supporting arguments behind each option at such junctures and then make an informed decision? This book does exactly all that; it makes an attempt to touch-base on all points that goes on in your mind - be it as a startup founder, or as someone who is just contemplating to start on his own. Things that go on in your mind, things that you try talking to your friends and colleagues about - this book does that for you. It would act as that friend and converse with you on those very lines. Details on the book: File format : PDF (ebook) Total number of pages : 71 Part of the series : 50 Pages or Less (First book in the series) PS: Although the total number of pages in the book is 71, that includes the introduction and other segments as well.

Book excerpt: A thrilling new voice in fiction injects the absurd into the everyday to present a startling vision of modern life, “[as] if Kafka and Camus and Bradbury were penning episodes of Black Mirror” (Chang-Rae Lee, author of My Year Abroad). “Stories so sharp and ingenious you may cut yourself on them while reading.”—Kelly Link, author of Get In Trouble With a focus on the weird and eerie forces that lurk beneath the surface of ordinary experience, Kate Folk’s debut collection is perfectly pitched to the madness of our current moment. A medical ward for a mysterious bone-melting disorder is the setting of a perilous love triangle. A curtain of void obliterates the globe at a steady pace, forcing Earth’s remaining inhabitants to decide with whom they want to spend eternity. A man fleeing personal scandal enters a codependent relationship with a house that requires a particularly demanding level of care. And in the title story, originally published in The New Yorker, a woman in San Francisco uses dating apps to find a partner despite the threat posed by “blots,” preternaturally handsome artificial men dispatched by Russian hackers to steal data. Meanwhile, in a poignant companion piece, a woman and a blot forge a genuine, albeit doomed, connection. Prescient and wildly imaginative, Out There depicts an uncanny landscape that holds a mirror to our subconscious fears and desires. Each story beats with its own fierce heart, and together they herald an exciting new arrival in the tradition of speculative literary fiction.

Download or read book Reimagining Your Love Story written by Dr. Andrea Gurney and published by Kregel Publications. This book was released on 2019-03-26 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offers perspective and guidance on how to love without fear "At the end of the day, none of us have a fairy godmother or pixie dust at our disposal. And so we must do the work ourselves."--Dr. Andrea Gurney We've all grown up watching the fairy tales that promise happily ever after with our one true love. Whether we like it or not, whether we think we believe it or not, chances are we've internalized that story of love. And despite the technology to find connection with more people than ever before, somehow we are also lonelier than ever before--even when we're in relationships. Although we were created for loving, intimate relationships, we've lost our understanding of how to find and maintain them. Andrea Gurney wants readers to discover more authentic connections that aren't made of wishes, so she equips us with practices from psychology, biblical truths, and lessons from relationship science. She also helps us examine our developmental history, including how cultural and familial messages take root in our psyches. Together, these tools craft a solid foundation on which lasting love can be built, rather than a pumpkin carriage that disappears when the clock strikes midnight. If you are disillusioned by unattainable societal standards, in need of healing from damaged relationships, or simply want to improve at relating well with others, you're ready for Reimagining Your Love Story.
