Are you searching for greater perspective? Have you felt discouraged or uninspired in a world of instability and uncertainty? Have you lost hope in the face of difficult circumstances? Or maybe you just want to read an exciting and unforgettable tale based on a true story that will transform and transport you?Whatever you're looking for, this is an adventure that will open your eyes, touch your heart, and deepen your beliefs. Take a journey with author, Shane Svorec, as she invites readers to see the world through the back seat of a VW bus. Across the country and through the years, colorful experiences make up her transient upbringing where her empathetic spirit and perpetual optimism become the foundation for a life of adaptability, greater understanding, and never-ending wonder. A story about a girl who refuses to be a victim of her past or a product of her circumstances, Shane searches for purpose even in pain with a determined, free spirit and shows others how to do the same. Creating a life out of overcoming the unthinkable, she dreams of a brighter future and envisions a world of possibilities as she stares out from the back seat of her family Volkswagen. The many "no-coincidence" connections she makes with others along the way, prove not only to be profound, but purposeful as well, while they unknowingly steer her onto the path she's meant to travel. These are the tales of the Broken Little Believer, the truth behind All the Pretty Painful Pieces, and the testimonies collected along the Path to Finding Purpose. Like going on a road trip with a good friend and a great playlist, this book weaves true stories into life lessons while entertaining and encouraging readers. In this book, readers will: *Discover how uncomfortable experiences can serve as opportunities for self-exploration and personal growth while creating a foundation for a healthy perspective and an attitude of gratitude. *Realize that to maintain hope, attract positivity, and fulfill one's purpose, it is necessary to implement pause, practice personal reflection, and routinely acknowledge the needs of our soul, while taking inventory of those who occupy our time and space. *Reveal a new (or greater) appreciation for their own journey as they recognize the value in painful lessons that serve to bring us closer to our purpose, and a life of peace and fulfillment. Beyond the journey, this book: *Features reasons to believe in the underdog while showcasing how false perceptions, widely held beliefs, and initial impressions are not only misleading but often wrong. *Provides a positive pathway to introduce, renew, and stretch that which we believe to be possible. *Creates a mindset of possibilities within readers as they learn to recognize blessings in disguise, further open their minds, deepen their understanding, and reach their potential in areas of their life where they've become stagnant, complacent, or resentful.

From the internationally acclaimed author of Magnificent Universe, Ken Croswell, comes the definitive story of the golden age in our understanding of the universe -- the age we live in right now. The universe's origin, evolution, and fate have long fascinated humanity, but until recently these subjects resided in astronomy's never-never land. The last ten years, however, have witnessed a stunning turnabout: an avalanche of new cosmological discoveries that illuminate the greatest questions of all. The Universe at Midnight is a platform from which to observe these new deep-space landmarks. Mammoth new telescopes on Earth, such as the Keck Observatory in Hawaii, the Very Large Telescope in Chile, and Japan's Subaru Telescope, as well as the Hubble Space Telescope overhead, are probing the frontiers of the universe with stunning results. In 1996 astronomers pinpointed the center of the elusive "Great Attractor, " a mass of galaxies 250 million light-years away that is trying to tug our Galaxy andthousands of others across the universe. In late 1997, two teams hunting supernovae in galaxies billions of light-years away shocked their colle

An enraging, necessary look at the private prison system, and a convincing clarion call for prison reform.” —NPR.org New York Times Book Review 10 Best Books of 2018 * One of President Barack Obama’s favorite books of 2018 * Winner of the 2019 J. Anthony Lukas Book Prize * Winner of the Helen Bernstein Book Award for Excellence in Journalism * Winner of the 2019 RFK Book and Journalism Award * A New York Times Notable Book A ground-breaking and brave inside reckoning with the nexus of prison and profit in America: in one Louisiana prison and over the course of our country's history. In 2014, Shane Bauer was hired for $9 an hour to work as an entry-level prison guard at a private prison in Winnfield, Louisiana. An award-winning investigative journalist, he used his real name; there was no meaningful background check. Four months later, his employment came to an abrupt end. But he had seen enough, and in short order he wrote an exposé about his experiences that won a National Magazine Award and became the most-read feature in the history of the magazine Mother Jones. Still, there was much more that he needed to say. In American Prison, Bauer weaves a much deeper reckoning with his experiences together with a thoroughly researched history of for-profit prisons in America from their origins in the decades before the Civil War. For, as he soon realized, we can't understand the cruelty of our current system and its place in the larger story of mass incarceration without understanding where it came from. Private prisons became entrenched in the South as part of a systemic effort to keep the African-American labor force in place in the aftermath of slavery, and the echoes of these shameful origins are with us still. The private prison system is deliberately unaccountable to public scrutiny. Private prisons are not incentivized to tend to the health of their inmates, or to feed them well, or to attract and retain a highly-trained prison staff. Though Bauer befriends some of his colleagues and sympathizes with their plight, the chronic dysfunction of their lives only adds to the prison's sense of chaos. To his horror, Bauer finds himself becoming crueler and more aggressive the longer he works in the prison, and he is far from alone. A blistering indictment of the private prison system, and the powerful forces that drive it, American Prison is a necessary human document about the true face of justice in America.
