The Chia Book 

Wayne Coates, PhD 

For people trying to lose weight and enhance well-being, it's a little miracle: chia, a tiny seed that the Aztecs 

used for centuries as a super food, provides a complete source of dietary protein with more omega-3 fatty 

acids than salmon and more fiber--but fewer carbs--than rice, grains, and corn. In fact, chia is a gluten-free 

natural appetite suppressant that helps regenerate muscle, sustain energy, and balance blood sugar. This 

definitive work covers the history and benefits of chia, and features a comprehensive daily strategy for 

weight loss, plus delicious recipes! 

Dr. Wayne Coates is Professor Emeritus in the Office of Arid Lands Studies at the University of Arizona, and is 

perhaps the world's foremost educator on chia seeds. He was among the first to grow chia experimentally 

and later for commercial purposes. Dr. Coates is the co-author, with Ricardo Ayerza, of Chia: Rediscovering a 

Forgotten Crop of the Aztecs. He lives in Prescott, Arizona. 

-Author is founder of the educational chia website www.azchia.com and head of Arizona Chia's retail 

operation 

- Chia is both gluten- and sugar-free, and good for both celiacs and diabetics 

- Ideal for runners and other athletes because it boosts endurance and muscle recovery, and is 

recommended as well for dieters and those suffering from arthritis

Feeding Eden 

The Trials and Triumphs of a Food Allergy Family 

Susan Weissman 

Imagine rushing your child to the hospital, terrified for his life…just because he took a mouthful of the wrong 

food or a few drops of milk touched his skin. Susan Weissman knows how that feels. From birth, her son 

Eden suffered from allergies so intense that an errant bite could be deadly: Dairy, eggs, soy, nuts, fish, 

shellfish, and several fruits all wreaked havoc with his body. Susan had to make food the focus of her 

existence just to lead him safely through a world filled with edible landmines. 

In Feeding Eden, Susan writes with poignancy, honesty, and humor about her quest to help her 

son--including trying a cluster of alternative therapies-as well as the effect of Eden's illness on their entire 

family. More than just a story for parents with severely allergic children, this is a stirring account of one 

woman's recipe for motherhood as she rises to a challenge she has no choice but to conquer-and 

successfully restores her entire family's appetite for life 

Susan Weissman is an active member of national organizations focused on food allergies, including the Food 

Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network and the Food Allergy Initiative. She is published in several electronic and 

print publications including Allergic Living magazine, Mom Writers Literary Magazine, and The Huffington 

Post. She maintains an online presence through her blog peanutsineden.com and through Twitter at 

twitter.com/susanweissman. She lives in New York City.

- With rates of allergies rising, it has been said that allergies are the “new” autism 

- FEEDING EDEN is one of the first food allergy memoirs in a growing trend, and is an appealing twist on the 

“momoir”: if you Google “food allergy memoir,” Susan's website www.peanutsineden.com is one of the top

Pot, Inc. 

Inside Medical Marijuana, America’s Most Outlaw Industry 

Greg Campbell, author of Blood Diamonds and Flawless 

Greg Campbell, coauthor of the bestselling Flawless and Blood Diamonds, presents a compelling, 

close-up investigation of a hot-button topic: America's schizophrenic attitude to the legalization 

of pot. 

Campbell, a suburban father whose biggest vice is a cold beer, seems like the last person who 

would grow weed in his basement. But his attitude changed in 2009, when his home state of 

Colorado led the nation in mainstreaming medical marijuana. Watching with fascination as 

above-board and financially thriving dispensaries popped up everywhere, Campbell wondered, 

“Why not me?” Pot, Inc. chronicles Greg's journey into DIY ganjapreneurialism, as he learns how 

to cultivate marijuana, examines America's often unduly harsh laws, and unearths ignorance 

about pot's centuries-old therapeutic value--ignorance the government is desperate to maintain. 

Along the way, he also gains a very personal insight into the drug's medicinal value that shapes 

his opinion about legalization. 

GREG CAMPBELL is the author of Flawless: Inside the Largest Diamond Heist in History (a Denver 

Post, Globe & Mail, and Library Journal bestseller), Blood Diamonds: Tracing the Deadly Path of 

the World's Most Precious Stones (the source material for the Leonardo DiCaprio movie of the 

same name), and The Road to Kosovo: A Balkan Diary. An award-winning journalist, his writing 

has appeared in The Wall Street Journal Magazine, The Economist, The San Francisco Times, 

Paris Match, and The Christian Science Monitor, among others. He lives in Fort Collins, CO.

Zombie Love 

The Do's, Don'ts, and It Depends of Undead Dating 

Jeff Busch, Ph.Z 

Just because you're a reanimated corpse doesn't mean you can't fall in love--as this hilarious dating 

guide parody proves. Dating is tough, but hooking up when you're undead can be a nightmare. It's hard 

enough to meet that special something without having to worry about fetid breath, angry mobs, and 

missing (ahem) appendages. And if you do score a night on the prowl with the zombie of your dreams, 

you'll face all the usual dating concerns, and then some: How soon is too soon to call after a first date? 

What's the best cover-up for a shotgun wound? And what's the proper dining etiquette when your 

meal tries to call the authorities? Filled with insightful advice, tips, quizzes, and more, Zombie Love will 

help any walking corpse find a soul mate and maybe even a happily ever afterlife. 

Flawless 

Inside the Largest Diamond Heist in History 

Scott Andrew Selby and Greg Campbell, author of Blood Diamonds 

On February 15, 2003, a group of thieves broke into an allegedly airtight vault in the international 

diamond capital of Antwerp, Belgium and made off with over $108 million dollars worth of diamonds 

and other valuables. The crime seemed flawless--but the getaway was not. Scott Andrew Selby, a 

Harvard Law grad and diamond expert, and Greg Campbell, author of Blood Diamonds, undertook a 

global chase to uncover the true story behind this daring heist. Tracking the threads of the story 

throughout Europe, the authors put together the puzzle of what actually happened that Valentine’s Day 

weekend. Now in paper, this real-life Ocean’s Eleven provides a thrilling in-depth study detailing the 

better-than-fiction heist of the century.

At the Mountains of Madness (Illustrated 

Classics) 

H.P. Lovecraft, Illustrated by Ian N. J. Culbard 

I am forced into speech because men of science have refused to follow my advice without knowing why. 

H.P. Lovecraft's terrifying horror story gets an illustrated interpretation by one of today's finest graphic novel 

artists. Geologist William Dyer--the narrator of this novella--is desperate to stop a research team planning a 

journey to Antarctica. He himself led a disastrous mission there, only to discover evidence of blood-chilling 

evil from beyond Earth. Will the new expedition continue its plans? And what will happen if they go? 

Once again, as he did in The Picture of Dorian Gray and The Hound of the Baskervilles, Ian N. J. Culbard has 

created an unforgettably powerful retelling of a classic tale. 

In 2006, Ian N. J. Culbard surpassed thousands of other writers and had his work published in Dark Horse 

Comics' New Recruits anthology. He has since appeared in the anthology series Dark Horse Presents, Judge 

Dredd Magazine, and 2000 AD. Culbard is an acclaimed animation director. This is the third full-length 

graphic novel for which he has created the art, having previously collaborated on The Picture of Dorian Gray 

and The Hound of the Baskervilles with Ian Edginton.

Record Store Days 

From Vinyl to Digital and Back Again 

Gary Calamar and Phil Gallo, foreword by Peter Buck of R.E.M. 

“There’s nothing as glamorous as a record store.” – Paul McCartney

launching pads for numerous bands and record labels. Record Store Days takes a long, loving look 

back at the retail refuges that enthralled at least three generations of music lovers, providing a 

glimpse into the special alchemy that makes a great record store. Written and compiled by two record 

store veterans, this lively and nostalgic anthology--now availabe in paperback--includes photographs 

and reminiscences from musicians, music industry executives, former record store clerks, and, of 

course, avid fans.

Winston Churchill, CEO 

25 Lessons for Bold Business Leaders. 

Alan Axelrod, author of Ghandi and Napoleon, CEO 

Winston Churchill was the quintessential leader of the 20th century--and a perfect subject for Alan 

Axelrod’s bestselling CEO series. Churchill skillfully converted crisis into victory, making the boldest of 

visions seem attainable; even though he sometimes failed audaciously, he embraced his errors and 

used them to become stronger. Axelrod looks at this much-studied figure in a way nobody has before, 

exploring 25 key facets of Churchill’s leadership style and decision-making, from his early years as a 

junior cavalry officer to his role in WWII, and demonstrates how he overcame near-impossible 

obstacles. Fluidly and engagingly written, each lesson is enlivened with a vivid vignette from 

Churchill’s life. New in paperback. 

Theodore Roosevelt, CEO 

7 Principles to Guide and Inspire Modern Leaders 

Alan Axelrod 

The newest in Alan Axelrod's celebrated CEO series examines Theodore Roosevelt--typically ranked 

among the top five US presidents by historians. 

Following in the vein of his popular Winston Churchill, CEO and Gandhi, CEO, Axelrod provides an 

unprecedented look at this much-studied figure. In an engaging, conversational style, Axelrod explores 

seven inspirational areas that characterize Roosevelt's leadership “lives,” from the active life to the 

learning life, and derives from them 136 invaluable lessons for modern business executives. 

Gandhi, CEO 

14 Principles to Guide & Inspire Modern Leaders 

Alan Axelrod 

Gandhi, a CEO? Absolutely—and an incomparable example for our uncertain times, when we need 

leaders we can trust and admire. Not only was he a moral and intensely spiritual man, but also a 

supremely practical manager and a powerful agent for change, able to nurture the rebirth of an entire 

nation. Alan Axelrod looks at this much-studied figure in a way nobody has before, employing his fluid, 

engaging, and conversational style to bring each lesson to life through quotes and vivid examples from 

Gandhi's life. New in paperback. 

Profiles in Folly 

History's Worst Decisions and Why They Went Wrong 

Alan Axelrod 

Using the same engrossing anecdotal format that proved so popular in Profiles in Audacity, bestselling 

author Alan Axelrod turns to the dark side of audacious decision-making and explores history's most 

tragic errors. While Axelrod looks at the hopelessly dumb and the overtly evil, the main focus is on 

smart people who had the best of intentions--but whose plans went disastrously wrong. The 35 

compelling, often poignant stories include: the sailing of the Titanic; Edward Bernays's 1929 campaign 

to recruit women smokers; Neville Chamberlain's appeasement of the Nazis; Ken Lay's deception with 

Enron; and even the choice to create a “New Coke.” These are cautionary tales--albeit with exquisite 

twists ranging from acerbic to horrific. New in paperback.

The Encyclopedia of New Wave 

Daniel Bukszpan 

The Talking Heads, The Boomtown Rats, Blondie, Elvis Costello: this fun new addition to the successful 

Encyclopedia series celebrates the hugely influential New Wave musical movement of the late 1970s 

and 80s. 

Originating as a less-aggressive sister movement to punk, New Wave encompassed a wide range of 

styles, from Brit pub-rock to electronica, synth-pop, and even ska. The Encyclopedia of New Wave 

comprehensively captures this eclectic music, all of which enthralled the newly emergent MTV 

generation. With its tendency toward romantic minimalism, dark dance beats, and gender-bending 

antics, New Wave changed the course of popular musical history, as well as fashion and art.

Calligraphy Studio 

The Ultimate Introduction to the Art of Hand Lettering 

Christopher Calderhead 

No fancy computer typeface can ever replace the subtle artistry and personalized expressiveness of 

calligraphic handwriting. And here's the proof: a beautifully designed, easy-to-understand guidebook 

that takes the reader from the basic pen-strokes of traditional hands such as Uncial and Italic to the 

proud completion of 15 breathtaking projects. The author, an acknowledged master of this classic art, 

shows how to achieve the essential coordination of hand and eye, and how to apply the aesthetic 

principles that shape both the individual characters and the completed page. 

Artful Watercolor 

Learning to Use the Secrets of Light 

Lou Bonamarte and Carolyn Janik 

Many art books offer advice on how to perform the techniques used by creative watercolorists, but 

this one goes farther by also explaining the “why” and “when” aspects of using these critical skills. 

Artful Watercolor exhaustively covers the best uses of light and shadow, color values, mixing custom 

colors, applying washes, and understanding shape, as well as exploring expressions of harmony and 

conflict, order and chaos within the composition. Numerous exercises and tips help guide readers 

through expressive detail work, wet/dry painting, and fixing mistakes. 

The Visual Language of Drawing 

Lessons on the Art of Seeing 

James Lancel McElhinney & the Instructors of The Art Students League of New 

York 

Featuring the insights of 15 current and former Art Students League instructors, this stunning volume 

reassesses the art of drawing not as a technique, but as the essential grammar of all visual thinking. In 

an illuminating introductory essay, James Lancel McElhinney punctures the myth that learning to draw 

is something for experts only, and presents methods for making, appreciating, and teaching drawing. 

The 15 contributors then offer a broad range of stylistic approaches and methodologies, accompanied 

by examples of their own and their students' artwork. A final section of basic exercises, along with 

information on materials, techniques, and resources, completes this inspirational study.

mehndi hand cookies 

YIeld: Approximately 15 hand cookies 

A few years ago, my best friend was experiencing some turbulence in her life, so I decided 

she needed a batch of homemade cookies to make her feel better. I wanted to make something 

fun and personal, yet artful and representative of good fortune. Ann is a talented 

artist with an extensive background in printmaking. Early in our friendship, we both were 

intrigued by the beauty of mehndi design. We even threw a henna party once. 

The idea came to me that I should do a mehndi-inspired cookie for her.

Summer in a Glass 

The Coming of Age of Winemaking in the Finger Lakes 

Evan Dawson, foreword by James Molesworth 

New York's Finger Lakes is home to the country's fastest-growing wine region, and each year millions 

of tourists spill into the tasting rooms of its wineries. Filled with fun and likable characters, Summer in 

a Glass brings this burgeoning area to life and captures its exciting diversity--from its immigrant 

German winemakers to its young, technically trained connoisseurs, from classic Rieslings to 

up-and-coming Cabernet Francs. 

"...Dawson [composes] a useful travel guide, lessons in Wine 101, and, most important, a reminder 

of what makes wine so alluring. A fast, engaging read for wine lovers." -- Library Journal 

Beyond Jefferson’s Vines 

The Evolution of Quality Wine in Virginia 

Richard Leahy 

For 30 years, Thomas Jefferson grew grapes in his Monticello vineyards in hopes of producing fine 

wine --but to no avail. Today that has completely changed. Virginia wine now has a reputation as 

some of the best in America, with increasing sales and more wineries (nearly 200) welcoming an 

ever-larger number of visitors. Richard Leahy, a former editor for Vineyard & Winery Management 

magazine, has written the essential book on Virginia wine, covering its history, interviews with the 

state's top winemakers, and updates on the latest industry developments. 

M.F.K. Fisher: Musings on Wine and Other 

Libations 

M. F. K. Fisher, edited by Anne Zimmerman 

For MFK Fisher, one of America's most-read and best-loved food writers, wine was a passion nurtured 

during her time in France and, later, California. This anthology, edited by acclaimed biographer Anne 

Zimmerman (An Extravagant Hunger: The Passionate Years of M.F.K. Fisher), is the first ever to gather 

Fisher's finest writings on wine. In sparkling prose, Fisher reminisces about marvelous meals enjoyed 

and drinks savored; describes the many memorable restaurants that welcomed and even educated 

her; discuses rosés, sherry, chilled whites, and cocktails; and escorts readers from Dijon to Sonoma. 

Open a bottle, open the book, and linger over some of the best wine writing ever done. 

The Wine Region of Rioja 

Ana Fabiano 

Rioja, a breathtaking region of northern Spain, produces some of the best wines. This exceptionally 

beautiful illustrated volume pays tribute to Riojan winemaking and culture-and it is the only wine book 

endorsed by the Riojan government. Ana Fabiano has traveled the world representing Riojan wines, 

and this work is the fruit of 20 years of research. She delved into Castilian books, conducted 

interviews with local experts, and spoke with generations of winemakers. The result is a book from 

the heart that provides a historical overview of the area along with up-to-the-moment information on 

each valley, including its bodegas, grape varietals, wines, and producers. To enhance enjoyment of 

these wonderful wines, Fabiano provides a food section with recipes and pairings.

Sergeant Quinn Walker decides to return

he had fled following the horrific murder of 

his beloved younger sister Sarah—a crime that 

everyone believes Quinn committed. 

When he arrives, Quinn learns the town has not

a mysterious orphan girl whose powers verge

ALEX CONNOR, AUTHOR OF THE OTHER REMBRANDT ONCE AGAIN WHIPS UP 

A RIVETING MIX OF ART, HISTORY AND— 

MURDER. 

Art historian and artist Alex Connor uses her 

research into the private lives of great artists 

and her knowledge of the world of big-ticket art 

dealers and collectors to give authenticity to her 

portrait of the underside of the art world. 

Intrigue and scandal centering on the British royal 

family at a time when they’re dominating the 

headlines. 

Could a single scandalous painting rock 

two British monarchies centuries apart? 

It could—if the painting provided proof that 

a competing heir to the royal throne was born to a 

prostitute in the 18th century. 

he evidence, a painting by William Hogarth done in 

T 1732, was supposedly destroyed. But hundreds of 

years later, on a private jet, news that the explosive 

evidence has been stolen leaks to several of the most 

powerful fi gures in the art world. Dying of cancer but 

charged with preventing the painting from seeing 

the light of day, revered dealer Sir Oliver Peters 

resolves to hunt down the missing work. When the 

other dealers from the jet start turning up dead, 

Sir Oliver realizes he’s battling more than time. 

ALEX CONNOR’S work has been featured in the Times, the 

Telegraph, Observer, Hello!, the Daily Mail, and many 

foreign newspapers, such as Le Figaro and La Sicilia. 

She is a Fellow of The Royal Society of Arts.

The Beasts of Tarzan 

The Adventures of Lord Greystoke, Book Three 

Edgar Rice Burroughs 

First, in Tarzan of the Apes, the orphaned young Lord Greystoke was adopted by a great ape and 

taught the ways of the jungle and how to survive in the wild. In The Return of Tarzan he had to learn 

the equally deadly laws of “civilized” European society. Now, in this third thrilling installment in Edgar 

Rice Burroughs’s perennially popular series, Tarzan is exiled on a wild island filled with dangers. There, 

he must enlist the help of a noble panther and a tribe of apes in order to return to the mainland and 

rescue his wife and infant son from the clutches of his nemesis, the villainous Nikolas Rokoff. 

The Hollow Earth 

At the Earth's Core and Pellucidar 


Readers can now enjoy two action-packed, adventure-filled fantasies from Tarzan creator Edgar Rice 

Burroughs--At the Earth's Core and Pellucidar--in this one volume! 

While working in the Sahara, David Innes--heir to a mining fortune--makes a shocking discovery: an 

unknown world exists below ground, at the Earth's core. Once trapped in this primeval land known as 

Pellucidar, Innes must battle an array of terrifying prehistoric creatures and primitive tribes if he is ever 

to return to the Earth's surface. 

This new edition features a map of Burroughs' imaginary land plus a glossary of terminology. 

The Land that Time Forgot 

The Land that Time Forgot, The People that Time Forgot, Out of Time's Abyss 


Set during the turmoil of World War I, Edgar Rice Burroughs' fantasy The Land that Time Forgot 

transports readers to an amazing lost world. This attractive new edition contains all three novels in the 

classic Caspak trilogy--The Land that Time Forgot, The People that Time Forgot, and Out of Time's 

Abyss--as well as Burroughs's original map of Caspak and a glossary. 

When a German U-boat sinks their ship, British and American survivors commandeer the enemy 

submarine. Going far off-course into the South Seas, they end up on the mysterious island of Caspak, 

where savage human tribes exist alongside several species of dinosaurs and other forms of prehistoric 

life. Will they ever be able to escape?

Sabine Lippert's Beaded Fantasies 

30 Romantic Jewelry Projects 

Sabine Lippert 

The bestselling Beadweaving Master Class series welcomes Sabine Lippert, Europe's top beadwork designer, 

in a gorgeous book that showcases 30 dazzling designs. 

Lippert's lavish combination of glass pearls, crystals, and seed beads evokes the Gilded Age, and these 

breathtaking projects all feature her trademark tiers of beads layered into opulent jewelry. Yet every piece 

uses the most popular and beloved stitches in beading: the right-angle weave and peyote. Most of the 

bracelets, necklaces, earrings, pendants, and chokers here are new, but Sabine has included a few of her 

favorite classics. A gallery of Sabine's and other beaders' work rounds out this stunning volume. 

Sabine Lippert teaches beading workshops in Germany, England, and the United States, as well as at 

Creativa (a huge German trade show). She is the author of 2009's Das Perlenkochbuch (The Bead Cookbook), 

and she maintains an active and popular blog, on which she posts images of new beaded jewelry designs 

almost daily. Lippert also is a Swarovski Ambassador. She lives in Bonn, Germany. 

- Sabine Lippert is Europe's top beader 

- Lippert's popular blog (try-to-be-better.blogspot.com) has a large international following, with 600 to 1000 

click-throughs daily. And with her huge presence in the Facebook beading community 

(facebook.com/pages/trytobead), Sabine has legions of fans 

- Lippert is a Swarovski Ambassador, which lends her both prestige and a visible platform 

- Several projects are reserved for social-media marketing to generate enthusiasm among customers 

“Sabine Lippert’s use of pearls, crystals, and seed beads, with innovative thread paths, results in beautifully 

encrusted jewels that are infinitely wearable. The way she shares her design approach of evolving pieces of 

beadwork into a variety of designs encourages readers to take their own design journeys. We can be 

thankful that Sabine’s long craft history led her to beads.”— Marcia DeCoster 

Showcase 500 Rings 

New Directions in Art Jewelry 

Marthe Le Van & Bruce Metcalf, Juror 

Rings have outsold every other subject covered by our “500” books, so it's only fitting that we begin the next 

generation of the series with Showcase: 500 Rings. This dynamic gallery volume looks at the jeweler's art as 

it's being interpreted by leading designers from around the world--some exploring dazzlingly innovative styles 

with highly advanced techniques and costly materials; others using simple, traditional methods and creating 

works of quiet elegance. What they all have in common is that every image contains elements of surprise 

and awe. 

Juror Bruce Metcalf was a contributing editor to Metalsmith magazine for nearly two decades and taught at 

the University of the Arts in Philadelphia. His honors include a Pew Fellowship in the Arts, a National 

Endowment for the Arts Visual Artists Fellowship, a Fulbright Teaching & Research Fellowship in Korea, and a 

National Endowment for the Arts Craftsmen's Fellowship. 

Marthe Le Van is a Senior Content Editor for Lark Jewelry & Beading. She has written, edited, juried, or 

curated more than 40 jewelry books since 2000. 

- Follow-up to the best-selling “500” book of all time, 1000 Rings (Lark Books, 2004) 

- Rings are the most popular form of jewelry 

- All rings in the book were created since 2000 

- Many designers here have never before been featured in a 500 Series book

The Hidden Geometry of Life 

The Science and Spirituality of Nature 

Karen L. French 

Encompassing nature, science, art, architecture, and spirituality, and illustrated with over 700 photographs 

and line drawings, The Hidden Geometry of Life illuminates the secret underpinnings of existence. In her 

trademark easy-to-understand style, mathematician Karen French shows how sacred geometry permeates 

every level of being, manifesting itself in simple shapes and numbers, music and sounds, light and color, 

even in the mysteries of creation itself. But these geometrical archetypes are more than the building blocks 

of reality: they are gateways to profound new levels of awareness. 

Karen L. French has a Joint Honours degree in Mathematics and Management Sciences and an 

MSc in Marketing, both from the University of Manchester. She has had a lifelong interest in sacred 

geometry. 

Mad Men and Scandalous Scientists 

Joel Levy 

Most science chronicles present a triumphant march through time, with revolutionary thinkers and their 

discoveries following in orderly progression. But the truth is far more entertaining. Mad Men and Scandalous 

Scientists examines the most vicious battles among the greatest minds of our time--such as Huxley and 

Wilberforce's debate on Darwin's theory of evolution and the shocking “War of Currents” between Tesla and 

Edison. From passionate competition to vindictive sniping, these rivalries prove that the world of science is 

far from cold and methodical. 

Reissue of Scientific Feuds. 

Joel Levy is the author of more than a dozen books, including The Atlas of Lost Treasures (Godsfield, 2008), 

The Doomsday Book: Scenarios for the End of the World (Vision, 2005) and Lost Cities of the Ancient World 

(New Holland, 2011).

astronomical observations at these two sites. Follow Professor Freeman as he explores the

public from 1939-1945. Drawing on firsthand accounts and the personal archives of the Allpress 

family, the book chronicles the life of a typical London family during World War II--from the 

morale-boosting campaigns, films, and songs to air raids, evacuations, and rationing. Special attention 

is paid to the aftershocks of war: couples reunited after years of separation, the residual effects of 

female independence, and children becoming reacquainted with their long-absent combat-stricken 

fathers.

The Art of War 

The New Illustrated Edition 

Sun Tzu, translated by Samuel B. Griffith 

This classic Chinese text, the earliest known treatise on war, offers strategy and tactics that can be applied 

to every type of human conflict. Central to Sun Tzu's philosophy is the concept of using deception and

law schools around the world. With a Foreword by B.H. Liddell Hart and a 74-page Introduction, this deluxe 

edition--beautifully presented in a sumptuous silk case--is a standout offering in the successful Art of 

Wisdom series.

Chinese military history at New College, Oxford University, and is the translator of Mao Tse-Tung's On 

Guerrilla Warfare.

roles of harmony and self-mastery in our lives. 

In addition to The Five Rings, this beautiful volume includes two additional short texts by Miyamoto: The Art 

of Swordsmanship and The Way of Self-Reliance.

13 and was never defeated. He wrote The Five Rings in a cave during the last years of his life.

practical lessons for modern readers

autobiography, a source of inspiration more needful than ever in these politically, economically, and 

environmentally challenging times.

Parlour Games 

Indoor Fun for the Whole Family! 

Katie Hewett 

Tune out, turn off, and have fun! In an era where everyone is hooked on cell phones and video games, 

what better way to bring family and friends of all ages together than good old-fashioned parlour 

games? From Charades to Consequences, Chinese Whispers to Twenty Questions, here are over 65 

classic games that don't cost a penny to play yet are worth their weight in gold when it comes to 

memories of family togetherness and laughter. So instead of reaching for that remote control, why not 

play a few parlour games instead?

out a window, the opportunities are always there. This inspirational guide to birding in our cities 

recounts Lindo's personal journey of discovery, and includes entertaining stories of encounters with 

human as well as avian city dwellers around the world.
