Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Longest Embrace is a solution-filled guide to coping with one of today's most urgent healthcare issues -- aging parents no longer able to care for themselves. The Longest Embrace is a timely, frank introduction to the challenges more than a third of American families already face as they care for elderly, declining parents or other family members. In 17 concise chapters, veteran Care Manager Barbara R. Hornby describes the emotional struggles and crises families are confronting, the healthcare system's strengths and shortcomings in dealing with the aged, the special problem of dementia, and practical solutions families can use to guide their parents through a more secure, fulfilling final chapter. Hornby's discussion includes a moving account of her own father's slow passing and dozens of examples from her 30-plus years as a geriatric nurse and care manager that dramatically illustrate the healthcare dilemmas families are experiencing.

Book excerpt: A comprehensive and exclusive biography on one of the most pivotal figures of the 20th century: Pope John Paul II. As the spiritual head of more than one billion Catholics and a world statesman of immense stature and influence, Pope John Paul II was a major international figure. Yet he remained a mystery—theologically, politically, and personally. Through unprecedented access to both the Pope himself and those close to him, veteran New York Times correspondent and award-winning author Tad Szulc delivered the definitive biography of John Paul II. This strikingly intimate portrait highlights the Polishness that shapes the Pope's mysticism and pragmatism, while providing a behind-the-scenes look at the significant events of his public and private life. Fascinating and thought-provoking, this biography of Pope John Paul II is vital reading not only for Roman Catholics, but for anyone interested in one of the most important figures of our time. The inside story of the negotiations involving John Paul II, Soviet President Gorbachev, and General Jaruzelski of Poland that led to Poland's and Eastern Europe's transition from communism to democracy John Paul II's secret diplomacy, which resulted in the establishment of relations between the Holy See and Israel The never-before-told story of how the Polish communist regime helped to "make" Karol Wojtyla an archbishop, the key step on his road to the papacy. Fascinating and thought-provoking, this biography of Pope John Paul II is vital reading not only for Roman Catholics, but for anyone interested in one of the most important figures of our time.

Book excerpt: Introducing a major new voice in Brazilian letters. Set among a Lebanese immigrant community in the Brazilian port of Manaus, The Brothers is the story of identical twins, Yaqub and Omar, whose mutual jealousy is offset only by their love for their mother. But it is Omar who is the object of Zana's Jocasta-like passion, while her husband, Halim, feels her slipping away from him, as their beautiful daughter, RGnia, makes a tragic claim on her brothers' affection. Vivid, exotic, and lushly atmospheric, The Brothers is the story of a family's disintegration, of a changing city and the culture clash between the native-born inhabitants and a new immigrant group, and of the future the next generation will make from the ruins.
