  Praise for The Gamer’s Bucket List 
   
  “A comprehensive starter’s guide to the wonderful world of video games. Watters’s punchy prose is a delight; his brief, informal summaries perfectly capture the best of what the art form has to offer. The perfect book for anyone who’s never played Minecraft, but is too ashamed to admit it.” —Laura Parker, contributing writer, The Economist 
   
  “We are all going to die. You can’t avoid it. But you can choose how you go. Outside, in the sunshine, like some sort of animal, or inside your darkened living room, playing games? If you want to get through the 50 excellent games in this book, then the choice is clear.” —Tim Schafer, President and CEO of Double Fine Productions

  Living with epilepsy is not easy. It's a constant struggle to manage the condition and live a normal life. Chillemi knows this firsthand, and she wants to help others facing the same challenges. In her book, epilepsy You're Not Alone, Chillemi takes readers on an epic journey through the everyday challenges of living with epilepsy. 
  From retraining your mind to changing the way you think, Chillemi offers practical advice for coping with the condition and living a happy and productive life. What sets this book apart from other titles on the subject is the inclusion of over 30 real-life stories from people worldwide. These personal accounts provide hope and inspiration for those dealing with epilepsy, and they illustrate that it is possible to lead a fulfilling life despite the challenges. 
  ADVANCE PRAISE FOR EPILEPSY YOU'RE NOT ALONE 
  Inspired by her own battles, Chillemi wrote a book to give those coping with the disorder greater self-esteem, hope, and motivation. -- Lad - Star-Ledger Newspaper 
  Life deals us many hard blows that we often don't expect. I admire the fact that someone like Stacey Chillemi was thrown a curveball that may have knocked many of us down to the point where many of us may not have wanted to get back up, but she did. It wasn't easy, but she possesses a determined spirit that won't let her give up. For that reason, Stacey will go far and achieve whatever dreams she sets her mind to accomplish. Della Crews Reporter -- Editorial Review -Anchor / Talk Show Host /News 12 NJ, Review 
  An important, clearly-written book with everything I've been looking for, for over 50 years since I was diagnosed with epilepsy. In particular, I'm able to explain to others things about me that I never knew before, as well as recommend this book. Thanks to the author for sharing her knowledge with the world.

  Summary of Stephen Hawking's Brief Answers to the Big Questions presents the thoughts of theoretical physicist and cosmologist Stephen Hawking on 10 major scientific and philosophical debates, including whether a deity exists, whether intelligent life exists in space, and whether humans should seek out a new home outside of Earth. Hawking, who spent his life studying how black holes could help scientists better understand the universe’s beginnings, began compiling these answers in the year before his death from a personal archive of speeches, essays, and other musings he had delivered during his time as a scientist and public figure...

  Healing from the Heart -...

  Life can hurt, but complete healing is possible. 
  We have all been wounded. The pain can hit deep and settle into our bodies and souls. In reaction to our pain, beliefs and patterns emerge that hinder the way we see ourselves, relate to others, and move through life. Pain slows us down and drains our mental and emotional energy. 
  Pain holds us back.  
  Modern society provides many opportunities to numb, hide or escape symptoms of pain without addressing the root cause. However, until the source of our pain is identified and remedied, it will stay alive in us, manifesting as physical and emotional pain, toxic thoughts, anxiety, depression, and more. 
  Everyone is unique in his or her response to life’s hurts, but as explained in Healing from the Heart:We can recognize our pain and respond in a way that puts us on the path to healing—and keeps us there.Healing happens in layers; each chapter guides us through these layers simply and concisely.Soul Connection questions provide valuable tools to connect us to our own heart at a deeper level while Spirit Connection exercises offer the opportunity to release the pain in prayer.Practical applications empower us to heal from the heart level (the soul), which not only relieves pain but provides the freedom needed to live the abundant life for which we are designed! 
  The principles and processes found throughout Dana’s authentic telling of her own journey from pain to wellness have helped hundreds experience the life-changing power of inner healing. Furthermore, Healing from the Heart features a refreshing combination of story, instruction and journaling prompts that lead to the peace and revitalization for which we’ve been searching.  
  Healing from the Heart is ideal for group study as well as individual discovery.

  The E-Commerce Book - About a...

  This book is designed for people who want to understand e-commerce – and by "understanding", we mean first and foremost Why and What, not How. Why is Amazon dominating the market? What happened between 1995 and 2015? Why were the incumbents like Walmart not able to fight back? What will become of the herd of new unicorn e-commerce companies? And what will happen to the traditional value chain on which retail companies operate? This is not a book about How, though, so don't read this hoping to learn "how to master online marketing". From our point of view, the Why and What is much more challenging and important, whether you are running a company in this market or are a student wanting to break into it. In this book, we'll share what we've learned.
  Look forward to 150 pages of valuable material about changes in the value chain, a lively review of how e-commerce has developed over the last 20 years, 50 case studies of digital business models large and small, three extensive interviews with leading e-commerce entrepreneurs, and strategic mind-games galore for a range of industries.
  
  This book offers a unique review of the e-commerce industry and the major changes it has seen, notably what key players have done to keep up with evolving technology and heightened consumer expectations. The authors give a solid look at what any retail or brand decision maker should know about the industry's history and future.
  
  Stephan Schambach, Founder of Founder of Intershop, Demandware, and Newstore
  
  More than ever, understanding the issues impacting the digital retail market as a whole will be critical to success in the years ahead. Alexander Graf and Holger Schneider deliver exactly the information to help you refine your perspective across markets and retail industries.

  This scientific memoir by an aquarium researcher “illuminate[s] the world of the dolphin’s amazing intelligence and playfulness.” —Temple Grandin “One comes away from Reiss’s book agreeing that ‘dolphins are among the smartest creatures on the planet’ and that they merit not just our attention but our care and protection.” —The New York Times   Dolphins are creative and self-aware, with distinct personalities and the ability to communicate with humans. They craft their own toys, use underwater keyboards, and live in complex societies throughout the seas. And yet, some nations continue to slaughter them indiscriminately.   Diana Reiss is one of the world’s leading experts on dolphin intelligence. Her decades of research and interactions with dolphins have made her a strong advocate for their global protection. In The Dolphin in the Mirror, Reiss demonstrates just how smart dolphins really are, and makes a compelling case for why we must protect them.   “Reiss, who served as an adviser on the Oscar-winning 2009 film ‘The Cove’ . . . writes passionately about the need to protect these sentient creatures.” —The Washington Post   “Reiss fills the book with such intriguing tales and with the science behind them. . . . Reiss is passionate about her science, but she is passionate about her subjects as well.” —The Tampa Bay Times   “Her enthusiasm is contagious.” —Publishers Weekly   “Reiss has managed no small feat—synthesizing personal experience, descriptive material, and scientific fact. . . . No one reading this book could possibly remain untouched by the beauty and intelligence of these powerful mammals of the sea.” —Irene Pepperberg, author of Alex & Me
