  Embark on a captivating journey that will fundamentally change how you see cancer—and perhaps life itself. Cancer is more than a disease. It is an integral part of who we are—complex biological and cultural beings with a limited life span. You will be surprised, challenged, and even amused by this eloquent synthesis of knowledge. Firmly rooted in science and the principles of evolution, this book is a must-read if you aim to understand cancer. 
  Jarle Breivik (MD, PhD, EdD) is a professor of medicine at the University of Oslo and a former Fulbright Scholar with a doctorate in education from the University of Pennsylvania. He is internationally recognized for his research on the evolutionary dynamics of cancer. His thought-provoking analyses represented in The New York Times, Scientific American, PNAS, EMBO Reports, and Wired Magazine, and have stimulated a profound debate about cancer, research, and biotechnology. In this book, Dr. Breivik brings it all together in a captivating story about humanity.

  “This remarkable book is not simply about cancer. It is a beautiful story about what it means to be human. It took me places I had never thought of and ended on a cliff hanger about the future of our civilization. I eagerly await the follow-up.” 
  —RICHARD SMITH, former Editor-in-Chief, The BMJ (British Medical Journal) 
  *** 
  “This book grabbed me like a thriller! As a cancer patient, I have asked many questions. My father also had bladder cancer, and my brother died of leukemia. This book helped me understand and accept.” 
  —ELIN SCHIVE, cancer survivor 
  *** 
  “With his panoramic view of cancer, Breivik’s brilliant writing and thought-provoking reflections will captivate both laypeople and researchers. A must-read that skillfully connects the life sciences in an illuminating manner.” 
  —MANUEL PERUCHO, professor em., Sanford Burnham Prebys, and Institute of Predictive and Personalized Medicine of Cancer.

  Have you ever been in a conversation that went sideways on you and you didn't know why. Sure you have, we all have, and it doesn't matter whether it was with your spouse, children, friends, client, boss or employee. You found yourself at a loss because you didn't know what caused the sudden shift in direction. 
  That is what this book is about. "Adult conversations" will give you the tools to redirect the conversation where it belongs or signal you that it is time to shut it down. 
  My hope is that through my stories, this tool or concept can be passed on and applied in your daily life. Nothing comes easily. Using this communication tool takes time and patience. 
  Simplicity is the key to this book. If you have the right tool and know the correct application of that tool, then the task becomes much easier. Sometimes it is difficult to talk to certain people, even a person you have known all of your life. The key to unlocking that cumbersome situation is simply knowing the tool to use. That's what this book is about. I inserted a number of short stories to illustrate how this tool works. Enjoy.

  A beloved productivity expert’s mind-opening and schedule-expanding guide to making the most of every hour. 
   
  Most of us have an adversarial relationship with time. We’re constantly trying to beat the clock—behavior rooted in a fear that time is scarce and must be obsessed over, hoarded, and ultra-optimized. But what if there is a different way to view time, one that could make our hours feel abundant? What if we believed that we had enough time to advance our careers, enjoy meaningful relationships, pursue hobbies, and more? In Big Time, time management expert Laura Vanderkam shows us how to make this our reality. 
  Drawing on original research about how hundreds of real people spend their time and her own experience of tracking her time for a decade, Vanderkam shows how even busy people can come to feel that time is abundant. Big Time offers simple, tested tactics with high impact, such as developing a “ringmaster” mindset; breaking big goals into daily, bite-sized pieces; and making little bets within a schedule to increase the odds of a breakthrough. Through actionable advice for managing a complex life, Vanderkam demonstrates how we can feel liberated by the time we have, instead of restrained by it. 
  By turns surprising, thought-provoking, and encouraging, Big Time tells listeners that the daily experience of time can be quite spacious—and that, managed well, each day’s hours can be a source of happiness and satisfaction.

  The important role of play, sound, music, and the heart for life-long learning, joy and parenting is presented in this wonderfully readable synthesis of scientific research and story.  Biologist, educator and author, Carla Hannaford, beautifully reinforces what we instinctively know will heal our family, societal and global wounds, with current understandings of how we structure our reality through our heart, brain, emotions, actions and intention.  Her remarkable insights and "how to's" will be of great and immediate value to people of all ages who are ready to deeply connect with the full potential of their child heart and play again, for their own good. 
  "An extraordinary, remarkable, and profoundly important work.  Dr. Hannaford has tackled the most fundamental and critical issues of our time with a thoroughness and intelligence I didn't expect between the two covers of a single book.   To write on seriously complex issues with such simplicity and clarity is itself a work of art, and mark of a remarkable talent".  ---Joseph Chilton Pearce
