  An award-winning, much-loved biologist turns his gaze on himself, using his long-distance running to illuminate the changes to a human body over a lifetime 
   
  Part memoir, part scientific investigation, Racing the Clock is the book biologist and natural historian Bernd Heinrich has been waiting his entire life to write. A dedicated and accomplished marathon (and ultra-marathon) runner who won his first marathon at age thirty-nine, Heinrich looks deeply at running, aging, and the body, exploring the unresolved relationship between metabolism, diet, exercise, and age.  
  Why do some bodies age differently than others? How much control do we have over that process and what effect, if any, does being active have? Bringing to bear research from his entire career and in the spirit of his classic Why We Run, Heinrich probes the questions of how we use energy and continue to adapt to our mutable surroundings and circumstances. Beyond that, he examines how our bodies change while we age but also how we can work with, if not overcome, many of these changes—and what all this tells us about evolution and the mechanisms of life, health, and happiness. 
  Racing the Clock offers fascinating and surprising conclusions, all while bringing the reader along on Heinrich’s compelling journey to what he says will be his final race—a fifty-kilometer race at age eighty.

  We live in a world that all too often operates under the overriding template of self-promotion, embracing a "hooray for me" attitude, and which measures success in increasingly small timeframes dotted with markers of temporal value. Millions of viewers know James Brown as a sports commentator and former athlete. With ROLE OF A LIFETIME, James reveals a different side of his character. Part memoir and part self-help, this book draws on James' lessons from his life experiences to guide readers to find fulfillment and significance. He offers values and encouragment to others of all generations, assisting them in their search for meaning in navigating a world that increasingly promotes transient values, if any at all. His message that shortcuts and gimmicks are counterproductive to a person's success provides hope that there is a God who cares about them and their futures.

  Unabridged English Translation including 92 footnotes. 
  An instant best-seller in Italy, Vita di Gesù Cristo ("Life of Jesus Christ") was also highly praised by Catholic peer journals worldwide and has never since been out of print. The author, Giuseppe Ricciotti, was an archaeologist and Biblical scholar. After his seminary studies and completing mandatory military service, he was ordained a priest in 1913 and continued his studies at the University of Rome. During World War I he served as a military chaplain, volunteering for service at the front lines, for which he was later awarded a Silver Medal of Military Valor. After the war, he resumed his studies and graduated in 1919 with a degree in Biblical Studies. During World War II, he took in many refugees at the congregation's Motherhouse the Basilica of St. Peter in Chains. 
  Excerpt from the Author's Preface:  
  I have studied the ancient fact and not the modem theory, the solidity of the documents and not the flimsiness of any interpretation presently the fashion. The first vague notion of writing this book came to me many years ago in extraordinary circumstances. I had been carried to a field hospital set up in a wood of fir trees in a valley among the Alps. For some time, I hovered between life and death. And awaiting my fate, it suddenly came to me that if I should live, I might write a life of Christ; his Gospel, in fact, was on the straw mattress beside me. The thought never left me; it became a kind of spiritual necessity. I have studied the ancient fact and not the modem theory, the solidity of the documents and not the flimsiness of any interpretations presently the fashion. I have even dared to imitate the famous "dispassionateness” of the canonical Evangelists, who have neither an exclamation of joy when Jesus is born nor a word of lament when he dies. It has been my intention, then, to write a critical work.

  Virginia Louise Giuffre New memoir: The Story of Nobody’s Girl is a gripping, compassionate, and unflinching portrait of one woman’s fight for justice against some of the most powerful forces in the world. Told with cinematic depth and emotional honesty, this book traces Virginia Giuffre’s journey from a troubled childhood in Florida to the unimaginable world of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell — a world of privilege, exploitation, and silence. 
  Across ten evocative chapters, it follows her transformation from a frightened teenager trapped in a system of abuse to a global advocate whose courage sparked an international reckoning on trafficking, consent, and power. Through her lawsuits against Epstein, Maxwell, and Prince Andrew, Virginia shattered centuries of impunity surrounding the wealthy and well-connected, forcing institutions to confront their own complicity. 
  This book covers: 
  ●     The hidden systems of power, privilege, and complicity that enable exploitation and silence survivors. 
  ●     Virginia Giuffre’s personal transformation from victim to global advocate for justice and reform. 
  ●     The broader fight for accountability, prevention, and empathy in the global battle against human trafficking and abuse. 
  More than a biography, The Story of Nobody’s Girl is a testament to resilience and moral clarity. It explores how trauma becomes purpose, how silence can be broken, and how one voice can ignite global change. This is not only Virginia’s story — it is a rallying cry for every survivor and every reader to believe in the power of truth. 
  Get a copy of this book and be inspired to speak, to listen, and to never stay silent again.
