  Triumph and tragedy, love and loss, murder and malice in the lives of five fifteenth-century queens 
   
  The fifteenth century was a turbulent age: the Hundred Years War between England and France, and the Wars of the Roses dominated the lives of people both inside and out of the royal courts. 
   
  Joan of Navarre, Katherine of Valois, Margaret of Anjou, Elizabeth Wydeville and Anne Neville were the queens who stood by England's sovereigns, caught up in wars that changed the course of their lives, and the course of history. 
   
  They were also formidable women who defied the limitations of their times, often living out the brutal consequences of their determination. 
   
  Alison Weir uncovers their stories in this final volume of her ground-breaking series on the queens of medieval England. Queens at War is a stunning culmination of research by a historian at the full extent of her powers and gripping account of five women on the throne.

  Grave Dealings - Body Snatching...

  In the eighteenth century the first American medical school was established in Philadelphia. Following the model of European universities, anatomical lectures were conducted with cadavers. But where did the bodies come from? Dissection was viewed as a fate worse than death, and the only legal source of "stiffs" was executed criminals. But there were not enough. As the medical profession and its need for "anatomical material" grew, a new, macabre practice emerged: body snatching. 
   
   
   
  Body snatchers secretly obtained bodies from cemeteries and sold them to medical schools for dissection. But how did body snatching work? How did body snatchers and medical schools avoid getting caught, and what happened when they did? How did the era of the body snatchers end? Grave Dealings: Body Snatching In Philadelphia, 1762-1883 digs through archives to unearth the forgotten history of a time of graveyard patrols and anatomy riots, when the dead needed protection from the living. Philadelphia pioneered and became the center of American medical education and practice–and body snatching–in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. 
   
   
   
  Grave Dealings explores the social, cultural, practical, and legal aspects of body snatching in America's first capital city and relates it to the continuing ethical struggles that surround the treatment of human remains to this day.

  You know how your partner or colleague typically reacts, but with this book, you will also understand their fundamental motives. This way, you can avoid many arguments that follow the same pattern as the last time you disagreed. The same logic will help you in the future when completing a task for your boss. When dealing with customers, you will instinctively know whether they seek something innovative or reassurance about their purchase. In addition to being able to read others’ thoughts, you will also understand how people perceive you. 
  The book is logically structured and easy to understand. It includes many practical examples of the four different roles we all take on. As you read, you won’t be able to help but think of the various people you interact with—and you will see them in a whole new light. The book has been developed over many years through team-building exercises, where participants have defended their behavior in demanding and complex collaborations. You will feel proud of yourself and your behavior when you realize the unconscious values that guide you. Unfortunately, not everyone shares your values. 
  Do you know the feeling of just clicking with certain people? Feeling a sense of connection with them? You can experience that same feeling with many others, even if they seem different from you. Even those closest to us may not share the same values, which is why differing opinions and decisions can lead to conflict. But imagine if you saw it as an advantage to be with someone who has different values—and therefore different strengths. Together, you can achieve so much more. 
  As normal human beings, we often focus on the personal traits that we struggle with the most when interacting with others. The problem is that we tend to see the downside of these traits and not the person's strengths.

  This combo explores the powerful virtues that motivate individuals to make a positive difference in the lives of others. By embracing Charity, Stewardship, and Willingness to Serve, we become agents of change, focused on compassion, selflessness, and responsibility. These virtues not only strengthen communities but also foster personal fulfillment through service.  
  Charity is the cornerstone of giving. This section delves into the transformative power of generosity and the importance of helping others without expecting anything in return. Charity is about recognizing the needs of others and responding with kindness, whether through time, resources, or love. It is the act of giving that elevates the giver and creates lasting impacts in the lives of those in need. 
  Stewardship involves responsibly managing the resources we have been entrusted with—whether they are financial, environmental, or personal. This part emphasizes the importance of taking care of the world around us, protecting what we’ve been given, and using our talents to benefit others. Stewardship is about mindful, responsible action that ensures the well-being of both current and future generations. 
  Willingness to Serve is a key element of living a life dedicated to others. This section highlights the value of choosing to serve without hesitation, embracing opportunities to make a difference wherever possible. Whether in everyday situations or through larger acts of service, a willingness to serve cultivates humility, gratitude, and compassion. 
  Together, these three virtues create a foundation for a life centered on helping others, fostering a sense of purpose, and creating a more caring, generous, and sustainable world.
