Описание: The story of 1930s tennis icon Alice Marble, and her life of sports, celebrity, and incredible mystery. Who was Alice Marble? In her public life, she was the biggest tennis star of the pre-war era, a household name like Joe DiMaggio and Joe Louis. She was famous for overcoming serious illness to win the biggest tournaments, including Wimbledon. She was also a fashion designer and trendsetter, a contributor to a pioneering new comic called Wonder Woman--and friend to the biggest names in Hollywood and society, like Carole Lombard and Clark Gable, William Randolph Hearst and Marion Davies, and members of families named Bloomingdale, Loew, and du Pont. She helped integrate tennis with her support of Althea Gibson, and even coached two young women who became stars in their own right: Billie Jean King and Sally Ride. Yet her private life provoked constant speculation while she was alive, and her own memoirs added layers of legend upon stories. According to Alice, she married a man who was killed in the skies over Europe during World War II. But who was the man she loved, and had he even existed? She was widely known for her patriotism during World War II. Had she really nearly given her life for her country as a spy, shot during a wild car chase fleeing foreign espionage agents? In The Divine Miss Marble, bestselling author Robert Weintraub traveled the country to uncover her fascinating story. And the more he learned about her, the more her mysteries and contradictions deepened. Alice was a powerful woman who knew her worth, demanding equal pay to men decades earlier than other female athletes; yet she was held in sway by a domineering, highly successful coach with whom she had a volatile relationship. She was renowned for her California style, and had a brilliant mind and the guts to overcome a lifetime of physical trauma. For the first time here, we come closer than ever before to the truths of this unforgettable life, and somehow it's a story even more extraordinary than everything we already know about the divine Alice Marble.

Описание: "THE SCIENCE OF SMART" covers the range of intelligences that make us successful, from verbal and spatial to social and emotional and, through a series of exercises and how-to's, you'll dive deep into the emerging techniques for boosting our brains across the realms (yes, you can boost your IQ as an adult!). There was a time in the not-too-distant past when intelligence was associated almost exclusively with narrow IQ tests designed to predict who would succeed and who could not. That IQ score was said to be fixed. But just very recently, thanks to a revolution in cognitive neuroscience, experts now know that we have many kinds of intelligence (not all of them measured by old-style IQ tests), and that IQ itself can be enhanced. How we raise our children, how we spend our spare time, even our exercise, all serves to boost the cognitive brain. Included is an interactive quiz to find your creative style; create a workout program of physical exercise to boost your smarts; and take an in-depth test of your emotional intelligence. In addition, there are sample questions across the different areas of intelligence as well as a bona fide version of the Wonderlic test, which is today given widely to job applicants in Fortune 500 Companies and even the NFL. The good news is that new training techniques covered in this book can help anyone increase their scores and their performance in the world.

"An inherently absorbing, singularly fascinating, completely compelling, and truly extraordinary memoir that is as deftly crafted as it is impressively candid." - Midwest Book Review
In 1976 Nancy Weintraub was a rebellious teen, a child of the 60s, a free spirit. She and a friend set out, against her parents' wishes, to spend a year in San Miguel de Allende attending art school and perfecting their Spanish. Nancy was in heaven as she experienced international travel and the art scene, but a horrific accident in a lonely Mexican desert took away her life as she knew it. As her family, friends, many doctors, and complete strangers made heroic efforts to save her life, many of her hopes were dashed forever.
Unknowingly suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Nancy spent the next 10 years running from one bad situation to the next. Trying to reinvent herself, she changed her name to Eli. Her healing really began after learning about the Mexican artist, Frida Kahlo, whose life mirrored her own in so many ways, and meeting an art therapist. Through art therapy, she came to realize that Nancy had died in the wreckage on that rain-slick road, and she didn't know the person who had emerged. It seemed her free-spirited gypsy self was gone. Gradually, the artist and writer Eli emerged from the shell of Nancy, and through art she found her way back to life and love.
Frida and Me takes the reader through this remarkable woman's journey, from the giddy days of her once-in-a-lifetime adventure, through the darkest abyss imaginable, putting her on a new path toward helping others recognize art as a tool to heal. Her inspiring presentations have helped trauma victims and clinicians alike, and readers of her story cannot help but be affected by her courage and determination.
As she states in the Prologue, "This book is about that journey and my proven experience in the use of art as a tool to help overcome the overwhelming patterns of PTSD. I literally have art and art therapy to thank for saving my life."
Praise for Frida and Me:
"I cried when I read this book. Eli Weintraub grabs you with a memoir that reads like a novel, and just doesn't let go. What an amazing journey, and what fortitude this young woman called upon, to find her life again after she nearly lost it. This is a powerful story " - Connie Shelton, USA Today bestselling author
"Powerful read This memoir was impressive. Very powerful read and I wanted to just sit and read it until I was done. Very informative, very intuitive. I wanted to just grab this 18 year old girl and hold onto her and help her through the troubles she endured. I now have a little bit more insight into things I have gone through myself and can relate in a very small part. Thank you for sharing all your life endeavors." - 5 star review
"Struggles and successes--Oh my gosh, what an emotional, intense story this is. Nancy's then Eli's life experiences are so intense. I felt the strength even through the struggles Eli went through. I loved reading Eli's descriptions of her paintings. Her social experiences as she went through her facets of healing were interesting. I even loved reading the epilog. This story is so moving and I am so glad I took the opportunity to read it." -5 stars
"I just read this book in one sitting. I cried through parts of it...This woman has been through a lot. It is a must read." - Jaxon, 5 star review

Описание: A startling new history of the Revolutionary War, told from the perspectives of both the colonists and the colonizers. For generations, Americans have been taught to view the Revolutionary War as a heroic tale of resistance, exclusively from the perspective of the Continental army and the Founding Fathers. Now, in Iron Tears, master historian Stanley Weintraub offers the first account that examines the war from three divergent and distinct vantage points: the battlefields; the American leadership under George Washington; and--most originally--that of England, embroiled in controversy over the war. Iron Tears renders an unprecedented account of the fight for American independence through British eyes, while dramatically narrating the battles that were waged across the Atlantic from Lexington to Yorktown and beyond. As the general, whom the British snobbishly and demeaningly referred to as "Mr. Washington," rallied to keep his ragged and overmatched Continentals together and create a nation, "iron tears" fell from redcoat muskets and cannons, as well as from the demoralized eyes of the defeated British. Weintraub's multifaceted analysis will forever change and expand our view of the American Revolution.
