Book excerpt: Edgar award winner Theresa Schwegel returns with The Good Boy, her most dramatic and emotional novel to date, a family epic that combines the hard-boiled grit of her acclaimed police thrillers with an intimate portrait of a young boy trying to follow his heart in an often heartless city. For Officer Pete Murphy, K9 duty is as much a punishment as a promotion. When a shaky arrest reignites a recent scandal and triggers a multimillion-dollar lawsuit, all eyes are on Pete as the department braces for another media firestorm. Meanwhile, Pete's eleven-year-old son Joel feels invisible. His parents hardly notice him—unless they're arguing about his "behavioral problems"—and his older sister, McKenna, has lately disappeared into the strange and frightening world of teenagerdom. About the only friend Joel has left is Butchie, his father's furry "partner." When Joel and Butchie follow McKenna to a neighborhood bully's party, illegal activity kicks the dog's police training into overdrive, and soon the duo are on the run, navigating the streets of Chicago as they try to stay one step ahead of the bad guys—bad guys who may have a very personal interest in getting some payback on Officer Pete Murphy.

Download or read book The Good Guy the Bad Guy and the Ugly Truth written by Justin Nutt and published by Ark Company. This book was released on 2014 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Good Guy, the Bad Guy, and the Ugly Truth, looks at the fact that when a man or woman is in more than one unhealthy relationship, be it physical, verbal or emotional abuse that comes to be seen as normal. While the person may state that they desire a healthy and loving relationship they tend to reject those potential partners where a healthy relationship is possible and tend to accept those partners who treat them poorly as that is what they understand. Two reasons exist for this 1. they have come to believe that the "good guy" (or girl) is an act and when the truly good person doesn't change into the "bad guy" or girl they feel they are still experiencing the act. 2. They have a damaged self esteem and self-worth and feel as thought they don't deserve better and this leads to them rejecting the person. Generally it is a combination of the two. The book examines this idea and explains it in an easy to read way without losing therapeutic value. After the subjects and ideas have been explained there are multiple self-designed exercises which are intended to help the person examine him or herself as well as their past relationships and what they truly want. They include things like the persons strengths, their weaknesses, guilt, and resentments, accountability of self and other and many more. The last section of the book talks about how a healthy relationship should exist as far as communication, sharing, time apart, respect, sexuality, and other aspects. The book is designed not only for those who have been through unhealthy relationship, but also those who have been effected by attempting to or being in a relationship with those who had unhealthy relationships. The exercises work for both men and women no matter which side they were on as well as individuals of any sexual orientation.

Download or read book Warren Buffett written by Andrew Kilpatrick and published by Dutton Adult. This book was released on 1992 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Beginning in 1956 in a spare bedroom in his parents' Omaha, Nebraska, home, Warren Buffett has built a personal fortune of four billion dollars. Today, Berkshire Hathaway, the investment company he controls, has eleven billion dollars in assets, including major holdings in Coca-Cola, Wells Fargo, American Express and Capital Cities/ABC. But Warren Buffet is much more than wealthy and successful. The man Fortune magazine has ranked as the eighth richest American has managed to accumulate this enormous wealth while maintaining a unique reputation for the highest integrity and ethics in the often cutthroat world of American business and high finance." "So impeccable is his reputation, in fact, that in August, 1991, when the venerable Wall Street firm of Salomon Inc. was abruptly rocked by a bond-trading scandal that threatened its very future, Warren Buffett was the unanimous choice of Salomon's board of directors, of its clients, of the Federal government, of regulators, investigators and investors to take over as interim chairman and restore the firm's shattered reputation." "In Warren Buffet: The Good Guy of Wall Street veteran business journalist Andrew Kilpatrick presents the story of Warren Buffet from his roots in Omaha, where his family goes back five generations, his youth (nicknamed "Fireball" by his father, he early demonstrated a gift for making money and at age eleven was making $1,000 a year from two paper routes), his education at Columbia University School of Business (Harvard rejected him on the basis of a ten minute interview) and how, at age twenty-six, he started the Buffett Partnership." "Kilpatrick explores Berkshire Hathaway's ownership of less glamorous but hugely profitable companies such as GEICO Insurance, See's Candies, Wesco Finance, Nebraska Furniture Mart, Scott Feltzer Manufacturing, and the World Book Encyclopedia. He provides insights into Buffett's business philosophy, his unqualified insistence on integrity, and his most daring financial operations." "This is the portrait of a man who made a fortune the old fashioned way, who eschewed the risky short-term strategies of the greed-ridden 1980s in favor of commonsense investments in companies of genuine permanent value. Kilpatrick reveals an extraordinary human being who combines financial genius, impeccable ethics, surprising to some, and a wonderful sense of humor." "Warren Buffett is an American original and this is his story."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved

Download or read book Good Guys written by David G. Smith and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The key to advancing gender equality? Men. Women are at a disadvantage. At home, they often face an unequal division of household chores and childcare, and in the workplace, they deal with lower pay, lack of credit for their contributions, roadblocks to promotion, sexual harassment, and more. And while organizations are looking to address these issues, too many gender-inclusion initiatives focus on how women themselves should respond, reinforcing the perception that these are "women's issues" and that men—often the most influential stakeholders in an organization—don't need to be involved. Gender-in-the-workplace experts David G. Smith and W. Brad Johnson counter this perception. In this important book, they show that men have a crucial role to play in promoting gender equality at work. Research shows that when men are deliberately engaged in gender-inclusion programs, 96 percent of women in those organizations perceive real progress in gender equality, compared with only 30 percent of women in organizations without strong male engagement. Good Guys is the first practical, research-based guide for how to be a male ally to women in the workplace. Filled with firsthand accounts from both men and women, and tips for getting started, the book shows how men can partner with their female colleagues to advance women's leadership and equality by breaking ingrained gender stereotypes, overcoming unconscious biases, developing and supporting the talented women around them, and creating productive and respectful working relationships with women.
