Across the world, overwhelmed women are recognizing that there must be an alternative to being all things at all times to everyone. Through self acceptance they are now realizing that it simply isn't sustainable, or necessary, to live their lives in Alpha Overdrive. Instead, they've heeded the advice of author, speaker, and self-health catalyst Lindy Lewis as she shares hard-won insights that encourage women to slow down and embark on their own journey into Grace. The Alpha Alchemy introduces seventeen new Ah-has for the exhausted, overwhelmed, and over diagnosed Alpha-holic. With a focus on Self-Health and Grace, the techniques shared in these pages provide a roadmap for nurturing oneself through Progress not Perfection, and by Bringing it YIN.
Most everything in our experience requires management in some form or other: our gardens, our automobiles, our minds, our bodies, our love lives, our businesses, our forests, our countries, etc. Sometimes we don’t call it “management” per se. We seldom talk about managing our minds or automobiles. But if we think of management in terms of monitoring, maintaining, and cultivating with respect to some goal, then it makes sense. We certainly monitor an automobile, albeit unconsciously, to make sure that it doesn’t exhibit signs of trouble. And we certainly try to cultivate our minds. This book is about managing networks. That itself is not a new concept. We’ve been managing the networks that support our telephones for about 100 years, and we’ve been managing the networks that support our computers for about 20 years. What is new (and what motivated me to write this book) is the following: (i) the enormous advancements in networking technology as we transition th st from the 20 century to the 21 century, (ii) the increasing dependence of human activities on networking technology, and (iii) the commercialization of services that depend on networking technology (e.g., email and electronic commerce).

That day in 1917, Russian orphan Mikhail Petrenko acted out the revolutionary rhetoric that inflamed his young heart. He could not, however, control the players in that fateful Bolshevik scene. Just like he could not take his new lover, Catherine, with him when he fled the country. It would take a long lifetime for Mikhail, who took the name of Mitch Petri at Ellis Island, to realize that he had left behind much more than a precious heirloom containing a mustard seed. Nearing the end of a career that took this Russian immigrant to dizzying pinnacles of success and admiration, Mitch Petri would be forced to confront his lost history. His biographer digs into his past and uncovers a legacy this Russian-born American never knew about. This family saga provides a glimpse into Soviet-U.S. relations during the 1980s, and at the same time, reminds us of the admiration we hold for self-made men. Part romance, part tragedy, The Locket Left Behind also reminds us of the family, love and democratic ideals we hold so dear.
