What You Won't Do For Love: A Conversation

What You Won't Do For Love: A Conversation

David Suzuki; Tara Cullis; Miriam Fernandes; Ravi Jain

COACH HOUSE BOOKS

pokkari
What if we could love the planet as much as we love one another?"Warm, wise, and overflowing with generosity, this is a love story so epic it embraces all of creation. Yet another reminder of how blessed we are to be in the struggle with elders like David and Tara.” – Naomi Klein and Avi LewisWhat You Won’t Do for Love is an inspiring conversation about love and the environment. When artist Miriam Fernandes approached the legendary eco-pioneer David Suzuki to create a theatre piece about climate change, she expected to write about David’s perspective as a scientist. Instead, she discovered the boundless vision and efforts of Tara Cullis, a literature scholar, climate organizer, and David’s life partner. Miriam realized that David and Tara’s decades-long love for each other, and for family and friends, has only clarified and strengthened their resolve to fight for the planet.What You Won’t Do for Love transforms real-life conversations between David, Tara, Miriam, and her husband Sturla into a charmingly novel and poetic work. Over one idyllic day in British Columbia, Miriam and Sturla take in a lifetime of David and Tara’s adventures, inspiration, and love, and in turn reflect on their own relationships to each other and the planet. Revealing David Suzuki and Tara Cullis in an affable, conversational, and often comedic light, What You Won’t Do For Love asks if we can love our planet the same way we love one another.

The Return of Philo T. McGiffin

The Return of Philo T. McGiffin

David C Poyer

Naval Institute Press
1997
pokkari
In this comic and irreverent novel, author and naval officer David Poyer--famous for such bestsellers as The Med, The Gulf, The Circle, and The Passage--brilliantly re-creates the hothouse world of the U.S. Naval Academy. When the book was first published in 1983 Roger Staubach, class of 1965, wrote, "Anyone who has attended a service academy will recognize Philo T. McGiffin and his classmates. However, anyone who has ever had a dream or a goal will feel a special kinship with Philo. This is a book worth reading."Poyer's Philo, burdened with the name of Annapolis's legendary prankster of the class of 1882, attracts attention from the day he reports for Plebe Summer, and the upperclassmen soon make his life a living hell. Stoop-shouldered and meek, he seems an unlikely candidate to carry on the tradition of the original Philo, whose outrageous escapades had served as a symbol of subversive individualism to generations of midshipmen. At first Philo nearly buckles under from the strain, but gradually "The Mouse" learns to roar and ultimately to triumph in the grand style of his predecessor. Funny, touching, and enormously realistic, this madcap novel will bring back to everyone what it was like to be 17--and in deep trouble.

"THIS BOOK WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE!" — NEWSMAX In WHAT YOUR DOCTOR WON'T TELL YOU: The Real Reasons You Don't Feel Good and What YOU Can Do About It, Dr. Sherer provides readers with verifiable information about current medicine, healthcare and relevant public policy so they can make their own best judgments as to whether a change in their behavior will, if they are inclined, effect a positive change in your life. He strips away the veneer of political correctness when it comes to health and provides the basic truths behind the implications of the daily decisions we make that affect out health. These decisions, mostly based in how we approach food, physical activity, our mental and emotional states, our interactions with others and our approach to accessing healthcare, have profound effects on our physical, mental and emotional states. Rather than being a book on how to eat, how to exercise, how to shop for a health plan and so on, this work strives only to inform. Because with information comes power. And with power, there is the potential for positive change. Bold enough to tell you what many medical professionals haven’t the courage to say, Dr. David Sherer’s book is chock-full of inside information on health, healthcare, related public policy, as well as the latest in prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases from depression, diabetes, and heart disease to autoimmune disorders, neurological diseases, and asthma. WHAT YOUR DOCTOR WON'T TELL YOU delivers straight, unfiltered, and evidence-based answers on topics such as: The real causes of the obesity epidemic and how it can be tamed Your best options for anesthesia for different surgeries and proceduresThe difference between an MD and a DO and why it matters Why colon cancer is skyrocketing in young peopleThe best ways to buy and use medical cannabis 7 ways to make outpatient surgery safer and much, much, more! WHAT YOUR DOCTOR WON'T TELL YOU: The Real Reasons You Don't Feel Good and What YOU Can Do About It will become your primary source for all those questions your doctor doesn’t have time to answer — answers that can save your life!

The America You Didn't KnowFrom the outside perspective, America is endowed with wealth and happiness. But a closer look reveals a nation in self-doubt as violence increases and the ruling class slowly gives way to an informal group of unelected people.The America You Didn't Know is an immigrant story of a Black man coming to America to seek higher education and a better life. The book documents many instances of success, but also pitfalls in American society that this immigrant did not know. Pitfalls especially in the White man's judicial system and dealing with the police and the FBI. The book also shows how many immigrants try to bridge the gap between their old life and the White man's world.Perhaps this book will contribute to helping set policies to pre-train immigrants before coming to America to help people deal with the pitfalls in the White man's world. Perhaps the Peace Corps should broaden its scope of training and foreign governments too should step up to help its nationals with school fee payments and posting bonds when people fall into trouble.At the moment, there is no form of financial assistance from either the US or the immigrant government. These are misfortunes foreigners don't know.
