             “No math,” Laura’s counselor told her in high school. “That would ruin your GPA.” Laura had other plans. One teenage act of rebellion changed everything for her at a time when STEAM opportunities for women were rare.

  The Accidental Millionaire - How...

  The Accidental Millionaire is the memoir of Gary Fong, would-be slacker who revolutionized wedding photography, inventor of popular photography aids, entrepreneur, contrarian, bon vivant and a man who really, really didn't want to become a doctor. A first-generation Chinese-American, Gary was raised in one of Los Angeles' least-desirable neighborhoods and was forced to deal in his own quirky and often very funny way with the burdens of poverty, crime and his parents' relentless aspirations. These issues almost overwhelmed him until he had a dramatic epiphany. Spotting a bumper sticker that read "Since I gave up hope, I feel much better," Gary promptly did just that. 
  He stopped trying and started succeeding. At turns hilarious, insightful and instructive, The Accidental Millionaire is Horatio Alger-meets-David Sedaris. Turning the traditional self-help principles upside down, The Accidental Millionaire disdains the goal-oriented approaches of traditional self-help philosophies. Sometimes not knowing where you are going is the best possible way to get there.

  It is not unusual for a father to write to his son. However, these beautifully written letters, spanning over 20 years, are far from usual, as the author began writing them a week after his 8-year-old son’s untimely death… 
  Dear Andrew is extremely simple in its focus, and, at the same time, extremely complex in the range of life issues and feelings that it touches upon. While searingly personal in its content, it is, nevertheless, universal in its meanings.  
  Inspiring and profoundly hopeful, Dear Andrew is an eloquent tale of deep feeling, of growth, of a father’s unconditional love, and of a journey to peace. So many books are only for those who have “lived it”. This book is about healing in its broadest sense. 
  Dear Andrew lights a candle for those who have experienced any kind of loss, and is a moving experience for anyone who reads it.
