    Why bookstores matter, and how we can help 
    Can bookstores save the world? As bastions of culture, anchors of local retail districts, community gathering places, and sources of new ideas, inspiration, and delight, maybe they can. But only if we protect them and the critical roles they fill in our communities. 
    Danny Caine, author of the bestselling sensation How to Resist Amazon and Why and co-owner of the Raven Book Store in Lawrence, Kansas, makes a compelling case for the power of small, local businesses in this thoughtful examination of the dynamic world of bookstores. At once an urgent call to action and a celebration of everything bookstores can do, Caine's new book features case-study profiles of a dozen of the most interesting and innovative bookstores of today, from Minneapolis to Paris. Through a well-informed analysis of these case studies, Caine offers actionable strategies to promote a sustainable future for bookselling, including policy suggestions, ideas for community-based action, and tips on what consumers can do to help. A captivating read for any lover of books, patron of bookstores, or champion of the survival of these vital institutions, How to Protect Bookstores and Why makes the strongest possible argument for the importance of a resilient, inclusive, and progressive bookstore landscape.

    The way we treat money is a mirror reflection of how we treat ourselves. 
    We give so much of our power away to the feelings inspired by money and our relationship with it. It’s time to redirect that power… to move from feeling disempowered to empowered… from not good enough to more than good enough… from unworthy to deserving. 
    We need to look at money through a trauma-informed lens. We need to distil the little traumas and the big traumas from our unconscious mind, from our belief systems, in order to change our perception of money to one of empowerment. 
    This book will help you do that. 
    It’s not about the money: 3 Steps to Becoming A Wealthy Woman guides us through the journey from Financial Insecurity to Financial Freedom through the lens of financial trauma and the emotions of money. 
    Catherine Morgan shares stories, inspiring thoughts, practical steps and powerful exercises, distilled through the lens of financial past, financial present and financial future in order to equip you to manage your money, mind and the behaviours that have prevented you from having more money, keeping hold of it and growing it.

    As President and CEO at Scripps Health, one of Americas  most prestigious health systems, Chris Van Gorder has presided over  a dramatic turnaround, catapulting Scripps from near bankruptcy to  a dominant market position. While hospitals and health systems  nationwide have laid people off or are closing their doors, Scripps  is financially healthy, has added almost 5,000 employees, and has  developed a reputation as a marquee employer, recognized year after  year by Fortune Magazine, Working Mother, the AARP,  and othersas a Best Places to Work. What are the  secrets to this remarkable story, and what can other leaders and  businesses learn from Van Gorders success as a  leader?  Van Gorder traces his track record to his background as a  California police officer, and The Frontline  Leader shares the leadership techniques learned from his  service, grounded in the philosophy of responsibility, honesty, and  public service learned as a member of the force. Police work is  about protecting the community, making it a better place, educating  citizens, developing warm and caring relationships, and ultimately  doing the right thing, not the convenient thing, so as to give  citizens someone to look up to and believe in. Businesses  who follow these same principles lay the groundwork for  lasting sucecss.     As much as companies talk about accountability and spend millions  on corporate social responsibility programs, managers  seldom understand what practical steps to take for an ethic of  service that makes accountability meaningful. The  Frontline Leader exposes readers to specific tactics and  implementation steps they can use starting today to take  responsibility, inspire others, achieve breakout results for their  organization and move up into higher positions. By understanding  and deploying these steps, readers learn that cultivating a deep  personal practice of accountability isnt just the right  thing to do but also the most effective and profitable path a  leader can take. They understand that daily practices that seem  unrelated to the running of organizations can in fact confer  surprising business advantage. Armed with these techniques, The  Frontline Leader will help anyone become a better leader.
