  33 Ways Not to Screw Up Your Journalism is a succinct, authoritative and encouraging handbook of practical and inspiring tools, techniques and values that journalists, whether they're students or newsroom veterans, need more than ever in our fractured and fact-tossed democracy. "Excellent for journalists of all ages and experience," says broadcast legend Dan Rather. Written by award-winning journalist and writing teacher and coach Chip Scanlan, former writing program director at The Poynter Institute, the book is a survival manual for journalists at a time when the news industry is in free fall and their profession is under assault. Journalists are often thrown into their craft with the most rudimentary understanding of what it means to be a journalist in a democracy. Its short, fact-packed chapters remedy that. It can be consulted at your desk or, slim enough to fit in a jacket pocket or purse, when you face a particularly thorny problem in the field. Its subjects range from treating sources with respect, being aware of your biases, plagiarism, fabrication, and ethical decision-making to letting fear stop you, combatting writer's block, and step-by-step guides to the writing process, interviewing and revision and the importance of multimedia and data journalism. Journalism is in trouble, but it's not too late to save it--or yourself--by mastering, sharing and implementing the most critical skills any reporter can have: the basics. Based on extensive research, personal experience and interviews with reporters, editors and publishers, 33 Ways Not To Screw Up Your Journalism is the essential companion for journalists and their professors and coaches.

  The Six Goswamis of Vrindavan was a group of scholars and devotees who lived in Vrindavan during the 16th century. The group consisted of Rupa Goswami, Sanatana Goswami, Jiva Goswami, Gopal Bhatta Goswami, Raghunatha Bhatta Goswami, and Raghunatha Dasa Goswami. They were instrumental in the development of the Gaudiya Vaishnavism tradition and the spread of the Bhakti yoga movement. They were known for their scholarship, devotion, and austere lifestyle, and were revered by the people of Vrindavan and beyond. 
   
  The Six Goswamis of Vrindavan left a lasting impact on the development of Hinduism, particularly the Gaudiya Vaishnavism tradition. They wrote extensively on the philosophy, theology, and practices of Bhakti, and their works continue to be studied and revered by scholars and devotees alike. Their teachings emphasized the importance of devotion to Krishna as the ultimate path to liberation, and their writings provide insight into the practices and rituals of Bhakti, as well as the historical and cultural context of the Bhakti movement. The legacy of the Six Goswamis of Vrindavan continues to inspire and guide those who seek a deeper understanding of the path of devotion. 
   
  With selections from The Yoga Library. Narrated by Emmy-nominated actor and lifelong yogi Sripad Jagannatha Das

  We Hold Our Breath - A Journey...

  Micah Fields

  Developed as the commercial hub of the Texas cotton and sugarcane industries, Houston was designed for profit, not stability. Its first residents razed swamplands into submission to construct a maze of highways and suburbs, giving the city a sprawling, centerless energy as storms and floods rattled coastal Texas. 
   
   
   
  When Hurricane Harvey made landfall in 2017, Fields set off from his home in Iowa back to the battered city of his childhood to rescue his mother. Fields tracks the devastation of Hurricane Harvey, one storm in a long lineage that threatens the fourth largest city in America. 
   
   
   
  Fields depicts the history of Houston with reverence and lyrical certainty, investigating the conflicting facets of Texan identity that are steeped in racial subjugation, environmental collapse, and capitalist greed. He writes of the development of the modern city in the wake of the destruction of Galveston in 1900; of the oil booms and busts that shaped the city; of the unchecked lust for growth that makes Houston so expressive of the American dream. 
   
   
   
  We Hold Our Breath is a portrait of a city that exists despite it all, a city whose story has always been one of war waged relentlessly against water.

  "The Art of War" is a timeless and influential treatise on strategy and warfare attributed to Sun Tzu, a renowned Chinese military strategist, philosopher, and tactician of ancient China. Written over 2,500 years ago, this classic work has transcended its original purpose as a military manual to become a foundational text on strategic thinking applicable to various aspects of life, including business, leadership, and conflict resolution. 
  Divided into thirteen chapters, "The Art of War" delves into the intricate complexities of warfare and the principles that govern success on the battlefield. Sun Tzu emphasizes the importance of flexibility, adaptability, and understanding the terrain in order to gain an advantage over one's adversaries. The book discusses various strategies, including the direct and indirect approaches, the utilization of deception, the management of resources, and the significance of timing in achieving victory. 
  One of the central concepts in the book is the idea that the ultimate triumph lies in winning without engaging in actual combat. Sun Tzu stresses the value of outsmarting opponents through strategic maneuvering and psychological warfare, reducing the need for bloody confrontation. He underlines the importance of understanding both one's own strengths and weaknesses, as well as those of the opposition, in order to make informed decisions that lead to success. 
  "The Art of War" also touches upon leadership qualities and the need for effective communication and discipline within an organization. Sun Tzu's insights have been applied not only to military strategies but also to various fields, such as business management, negotiation, and personal development. His teachings highlight the significance of preparation, planning, and adaptability in achieving one's goals.
