All Sarah and Evan Davis ever wanted was a child, but after two dangerous miscarriages, they face an unbearable—and uncertain—future. Evan tries to console her, but Sarah refuses to be swayed. Against doctor's advice, Sarah allows herself to get pregnant, and this time gives birth to a beautiful boy, Kade. At long last, both Sarah and Evan believe their lives are complete, at least until their son is diagnosed with autism, something neither of them expected—a change that leads to an even harsher reality: sometimes love, no matter how hard, must be enough. "A realistic portrayal of the struggles that parents face with autism and their autistic child." --Cynthia Hagans, Autism Consultant Lawton Public Schools

The acclaimed author of Einstein’s Dreams tackles "big questions like the origin of the universe and the nature of consciousness ... in an entertaining and easily digestible way” (Wall Street Journal) with a collection of meditative essays on the possibilities—and impossibilities—of nothingness and infinity, and how our place in the cosmos falls somewhere in between. Can space be divided into smaller and smaller units, ad infinitum? Does space extend to larger and larger regions, on and on to infinity? Is consciousness reducible to the material brain and its neurons? What was the origin of life, and can biologists create life from scratch in the lab? Physicist and novelist Alan Lightman, whom The Washington Post has called “the poet laureate of science writers,” explores these questions and more—from the anatomy of a smile to the capriciousness of memory to the specialness of life in the universe to what came before the Big Bang. Probable Impossibilities is a deeply engaged consideration of what we know of the universe, of life and the mind, and of things vastly larger and smaller than ourselves.

A one of its kind biography, The Only Life is the story of a woman who blazed a path for herself and others in the presence of one of the greatest mystics, Osho. Growing up an ordinary Indian girl in British India, and rendered powerless in a domineering world, Laxmi went on to become Osho’s ?rst disciple and secretary. What follows is an account of not just a life, but of the massive international movement which grew around Osho in the 1970s and 80s—one that Laxmi was at the helm of. Equally, what unfolds is a narrative, full of pathos, where her protégé usurps her place. Heartbroken, ostracised and later banished, she wanders the wastelands of America in isolation, seeking to rediscover herself by choosing devotion for her master over despair. The Only Life is an extraordinary account of a life of starkly contrasting ups and downs. Laxmi’s journey and the way she lived continues to serve as a crucial illustration for dealing with life’s adversities. It shows that the path of kindness, devotion and awareness trumps all in these present chaotic and precarious times.

If I were to ask you to describe the Bible for me in three words, would you pick words like "phenomenal," "gripping," and "thrilling?" Not many Christians would, because most of us are under the sad misconception that the Bible is a dull, tedious book for religious folks. Such is not the case. You and I are about to embark on a journey through genres galore, viewing the Bible in full blast, high-definition color. No matter what age you are, the Bible is for you. What is this Book, lovingly nicknamed the "Sword of the Spirit?" (Ephesians 6:17) and authored by God Himself with the power to change lives, heal wounds, mend broken hearts, and equip warriors? There's only one right answer: It's the Greatest Book You've Never Read.

If you are struggling, you know you are alive. Life isn't meant to be "easy" it is supposed to be meaningful. The journey to get there is different for everyone but many of us share the same struggles. Whether you are fighting to maintain a positive self-image, trying to make steps towards a healthier life or gaining the courage to accomplish a huge goal, If Only Life Was as Easy as Writing a Recipe will guide you through some of these common hard spots. Each chapter starts with a life lesson and ends with a healthy living recipe. The short stories range from the first time competing in a triathlon to the first (and definitely not the last) time getting dumped and everything in between. Life isn't easy like a recipe, no one is handed a piece of paper with very detailed steps to success. Instead we throw a lot of random elements into a bowl and hope they coalesce into a desirable outcome. If you want to gain control of what is thrown into your bowl or how you react to them, this is the book for you!
