White Poverty - How Exposing...

Reverend Dr. William Barber II,...

A generational work with far-ranging social and political implications, White Poverty promises to be one of the most influential books in recent years. 
 
 
 
One of the most pernicious and persistent myths in the United States is the association of Black skin with poverty. Though there are forty million more poor white people than Black people, most Americans, both Republicans and Democrats, continue to think of poverty—along with issues like welfare, unemployment, and food stamps—as solely a Black problem. Why is this so? What are the historical causes? And what are the political consequences that result? 
 
 
 
These are among the questions that the Reverend Dr. William J. Barber II, a leading advocate for the rights of the poor and the "closest person we have to Dr. King" (Cornel West), addresses in White Poverty, a groundbreaking work that exposes a legacy of historical myths that continue to define both white and Black people, creating in the process what might seem like an insuperable divide. Analyzing what has changed since the 1930s, when the face of American poverty was white, Barber, along with Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove, addresses white poverty as a hugely neglected subject that just might provide the key to mitigating racism and bringing together tens of millions of working class and impoverished Americans.

Evolution to Purpose - Choosing...

Bryan Hong

Many never find happiness at work. Will you? 
Why are so many people unhappy at work, if they choose the work they do? After teaching as a professor at the New York University Leonard N. Stern School of Business, The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, and Ivey Business School in Canada, Bryan Hong shares his observations based on hundreds of conversations with his students before and after graduation. 
Although many don't realize it, unhappiness at work is a consequence of the way we've designed our society, especially our education system. Rather than prepare us for genuine success and happiness in life, most of us are never told what we need to know to answer even our most basic life questions. In this book, Dr. Hong shares what everyone who wants to be happier at work-and in life-should know. The first step begins with the most important lesson so many of us never learn in school: We must evolve to our true purpose. 
In this book, the author explores:How our society works to shape us in ways that will never lead to happiness at workWhat it truly means to have a strong sense of purpose at work, and why we all need it for a life beyond survival and pleasureHow we can evolve to purpose in a world where so many work without it 
What if there was much more to your life than what you've been told?

The Vanishing of Carolyn Wells -...

Rebecca Rego Barry

The Vanishing of Carolyn Wells is the first biography of one of the “lost ladies” of detective fiction who wrote more than eighty mysteries and hundreds of other works between the 1890s and the 1940s. Carolyn Wells (1862–1942) excelled at writing country house and locked-room mysteries for a decade before Agatha Christie entered the scene. In the 1920s, when she was churning out three or more books annually, she was dubbed “about the biggest thing in mystery novels in the US.” On top of that, Wells wielded her pen in just about every literary genre, producing several immensely popular children’s books and young adult novels; beloved anthologies; and countless stories, prose, and poetry for magazines such as Thrilling Detective, Life, The Saturday Evening Post, Harper’s, and The New Yorker. All told, Wells wrote over 180 books. Some were adapted into silent films, and some became bestsellers. Yet a hundred years later, she has been all but erased from literary history. Why? How? This investigation takes us on a journey to Rahway, New Jersey, where Wells was born and is buried; to New York City’s Upper West Side, where she spent her final twenty-five years; to the Library of Congress, where Carolyn’s world-class collection of rare books now resides; and to many other public and private collections where exciting discoveries unfolded. Part biography and part sleuthing narrative, The Vanishing of Carolyn Wells recovers the life and work of a brilliant writer who was considered one of the funniest, most talented women of her time.
