Revised edition of the best-selling memoir that has been read by over a million people worldwide with translations in 29 languages. After too many years of unfulfilling work, Bronnie Ware began searching for a job with heart. Despite having no formal qualifications or previous experience in the field, she found herself working in palliative care. During the time she spent tending to those who were dying, Bronnie's life was transformed. Later, she wrote an Internet blog post, outlining the most common regrets that the people she had cared for had expressed. The post gained so much momentum that it was viewed by more than three million readers worldwide in its first year. At the request of many, Bronnie subsequently wrote a book, The Top Five Regrets of the Dying, to share her story. Bronnie has had a colourful and diverse life. By applying the lessons of those nearing their death to her own life, she developed an understanding that it is possible for everyone, if we make the right choices, to die with peace of mind. In this revised edition of the best-selling memoir that has been read by over a million people worldwide, with translations in 29 languages, Bronnie expresses how significant these regrets are and how we can positively address these issues while we still have the time. The Top Five Regrets of the Dying gives hope for a better world. It is a courageous, life-changing book that will leave you feeling more compassionate and inspired to live the life you are truly here to live.

"I knew by the title and the writer I would enjoy Live Until You Die. What I was not prepared for was--I read the book in two sittings. I could not put it down. There truly is something for all ages and interest. As you read this book you will think of dozens of people you want to share it with. Beware--it may challenge some of your current thinking. I plan to use some of Bob's material when I teach home-care workers. It personally hit me from all directions--nurse, wife of a person with Alzheimer's, mother, grandmother, and most of all as a Christian helping my struggling family with the ups and downs of life on this earth. Live until You Die will remind all readers of God's love for us and give us inspiration to truly LIVE our lives in the present, being aware of all that is around us." --Brenda Dunn, RN, BSN, founder and CEO of hospice of Montezuma, CO, and Family Life Care in Florida and Colorado. "Chaplain Robert Howard Bole uses many of his experiences as illustrations in his book to help us to better understand that we should take time to consider how to live better lives and to get the best out of life. He has the ability to speak people's language clearly and with a depth of sensitivity. It offers hope and answers for persons who are just going through the motions as they live from day to day to change their attitudes and habits and enjoy life while they are alive. It can provide practical help for persons who have really forgotten how to live and enjoy life. This book is a significant work that is written in a balanced and sensitive way. I highly recommend it." -Francis Yorke, PhD (candidate), Deputy Director Jamaica School of Preaching and Biblical Studies, Kingston, Jamaica. "Once again I am amazed with Dr. Bole's style of teaching as he succinctly helps us make sense of how to live and draw purpose from life, even into our seventies, eighties, and well beyond. His book, Live Until You Die, is peppered with lyrics from popular songs over the past several decades as well as philosophical phrases from timeless writers. His sense of humor comes through as he motivates and inspires us through his countless stories and allegories. I was very fortunate to have him as my professor through the American Christian Bible College where I earned a degree in Christian Counseling. His courses helped equip me to counsel and instruct troubled youth at a Youth Challenge Academy for twelve years, and become an advocate for children. The information I have gleaned about the brain will help me in my present position in the health-food industry where my customers are always seeking help with keeping their brains functioning well. I also care for my elderly mother and have already started to implement some of the recommendations outlined in the book. --Rhoda Fountain, retired Postmaster, counselor, and health food rep, Middleburg, Florida "Bob shows us how to live in wholeness by taking care of our brain, body, and soul. There is a lot of practical advice in the book about taking care of ourselves that we need to be reminded of on a regular basis. Bob weaves his life experiences of living in the human laboratories of foreign lands and clinical situations with grieving people to give us a glimpse of what a fulfilling, long life could be. Bob has modeled his book with his own life that shows us that age does not limit us from having a vibrant ministry and life. After losing my mother to Alzheimer's disease, it's refreshing to see a book that encourages us to exercise our mind along with our body. Ministers and lay people, regardless of their length of ministry, can increase their impact on their world by utilizing the advice in Bob's book." --Brent Beaird, M.Div., hospice chaplain for geriatric patients for over twenty years

Now includes a new essay, “Naked Childhood,” about Kushner’s family, their converted school bus, and the Summers of Love in Oregon and San Francisco! “The Hard Crowd is wild, wide-ranging, and unsparingly intelligent throughout.” —Taylor Antrim, Vogue From a writer celebrated for her “chops, ambition, and killer instinct” (John Powers, Fresh Air), a career-spanning collection of spectacular essays about politics and culture. Rachel Kushner has established herself as “the most vital and interesting American novelist working today” (The Millions) and as a master of the essay form. In The Hard Crowd, she gathers a selection of her writing from over the course of the last twenty years that addresses the most pressing political, artistic, and cultural issues of our times—and illuminates the themes and real-life experiences that inform her fiction. In twenty razor-sharp essays, The Hard Crowd spans literary journalism, memoir, cultural criticism, and writing about art and literature, including pieces on Jeff Koons, Denis Johnson, and Marguerite Duras. Kushner takes us on a journey through a Palestinian refugee camp, an illegal motorcycle race down the Baja Peninsula, 1970s wildcat strikes in Fiat factories, her love of classic cars, and her young life in the music scene of her hometown, San Francisco. The closing, eponymous essay is her manifesto on nostalgia, doom, and writing. These pieces, new and old, are electric, vivid, and wry, and they provide an opportunity to witness the evolution and range of one of our most dazzling and fearless writers. “Kushner writes with startling detail, imagination, and gallows humor,” said Leah Greenblatt in Entertainment Weekly, and, from Paula McLain in the Wall Street Journal: “The authority and precision of Kushner’s writing is impressive, but it’s the gorgeous ferocity that will stick with me.”

Lessons In The Art of Dying...and Living Thousands of people will receive a devastating medical diagnosis this year. And for most, what follows is a nightmare of anger, shame, loneliness and passivity. Instead of being encouraged to take a lead role in orchestrating their finales, they are expected to wait patiently for the curtain to fall. The Amateur’s Guide is on the cutting edge of death and dying work. It provides an opportunity to break free from the painful silence our culture imposes on death talk. Whether filling out a durable power of attorney form, completing a death anxiety survey or personally designing a unique end-of-life plan, you will be totally involved and engaged. This unique seminar/support group format exposes you to a myriad of life situations and moral dilemmas that arise as one faces his/her mortality head on. Learn from and with people just like you. Ten diverse fictional characters provide essential role models for enhancing life near death. Additionally, six presenters, experts in their field, offer timely advice to help make the end of life less intimidating and more of a rich, poignant transition. This is about achieving a good and wise death in the context of real dying, with all its unpredictability, disfigurement, pain, and sorrow. This workbook is primarily for those currently facing their mortality. But concerned family and friends, healing and helping professionals, lawyers, clergy, teachers, students, and those grieving a death will all benefit from joining in. Because, as we all know, none of us is getting out of here alive.

The Book of Life takes a fresh look at redemption and uses it as a guide for approaching both personal issues of spirituality and societal issues of politics. By stretching its embrace widely, it enables the reader to learn how individuals can get to heaven and how the people of the United States can solve their country's most persistent problems. By drawing on the imagery of runners in a race, following the example of Paul the apostle, Jim Hester looks at life as a contest between two ways: humanity's way and God's way. The line of thought in The Book of Life explores these two concepts, incorporating the six main sections of the Bible and the six days before Jesus's death and interpreting them in light of six different topics: problems, ideas, goals, attitudes, events and people.

"I'll talk to anybody, a priest, a bank manager, a gangster, the devil himself, if I can get the information I need. This is a war." -- Lt. Commander Charles Radcliffe Haffenden, Naval Intelligence Unit, B-3 In late 1982, a spike in terrorism has the Reagan Administration considering covert action to neutralize the menace before it reaches the United States. There are big risks to waging a secret war against America's enemies---but there is one little-known precedent. Forty years earlier, German U-boats had been prowling the Atlantic, sinking hundreds of U.S. ships along the east coast, including the largest cruise ship in the world, Normandie, destroyed at a Manhattan pier after Pearl Harbor. Nazi agents even landed on Long Island with explosives and maps of railways, bridges, and defense plants. Desperate to secure the coast, the Navy turned to Meyer Lansky, the Jewish Mob boss. A newly naturalized American whose fellow Eastern European Jews were being annihilated by Hitler, Lansky headed an unlikely fellowship of mobsters Lucky Luciano, Bugsy Siegel, Frank Costello, and naval intelligence officers. Young Reagan White House aide Jonah Eastman, grandson of Atlantic City gangster Mickey Price, is approached by the president's top advisor with an assignment: Discreetly interview his grandfather's old friend Lansky about his wartime activities. There just might be something to learn from that secret operation. The notoriously tight-lipped gangster, dying of cancer, is finally ready to talk. Jonah gets a riveting---and darkly comic---history lesson. The Mob caught Nazi agents, planted propaganda with the help of columnist Walter Winchell, and found Mafia spies to plot the invasion of Sicily, where General Patton was poised to strike at the soft underbelly of the Axis. Lansky's men stopped at nothing to sabotage Hitler's push toward American shores. Based on real events, The Devil Himself is a high-energy novel of military espionage and Mafia justice.
