Andrew J. Cherlin's three decades of study have shown him that marriage in America is a social and political battlefield in a way that it isn’t in other developed countries. Americans marry and divorce more often and have more live-in partners than Europeans, and gay Americans have more interest in legalizing same-sex marriage. The difference comes from Americans’ embrace of two contradictory cultural ideals: marriage, a formal commitment to share one's life with another; and individualism, which emphasizes personal choice and self-development. Religion and law in America reinforce both of these behavioral poles, fueling turmoil in our family life and heated debate in our public life. Cherlin’s incisive diagnosis is an important contribution to the debate and points the way to slowing down the partnership merry-go-round.

In America's small business landscape, the fail-success rate leans entirely too far in favor of failure, and past experiences provided the author with invaluable insight into many of the reasons. Adam Starks' Vultured is part autobiography, part self-help book highlighting the dark side of entrepreneurship by identifying pitfalls in the decision-making process as it relates to starting and running a small business. Serving as a cautionary tale, the book warns against all such mistakes one can make that may result in landing on the failing side of a small business venture. Vultured chronicles Starks' journey as he planned and operated his dream restaurant and performing arts venue, Wanderlust, and then tried to fend off one vulture after another as they attempted to eat his venture alive. The book serves as an exposé of these vultures living under the guise of contractors, manufacturers, lenders, licensers, distributors, and other unexpected partners with ulterior motives. In an effort to maximize profitability in the business-to-business (B2B) sector, any contractor or supporting business partners may be trying to scavenge your cash flow with unnecessary or over-priced products and services, thus leaving us "vultured." At times, small business owners experience the consequences of such vulturistic practices, which too often end in the death of a small business venture. Vultured seeks to help all novice business owners by providing first-hand account knowledge of business in the trenches to fend off those coming from the lair to unwittingly disrupt your potential success and avoid the same fate as Adam's dream turned nightmare.

(Applause Books). David Merrick is the most astonishing showman of our time, and perhaps of all time. No other producer, not even Florenz Ziegfeld nor the combined lights of the Shubert brothers, has equalled his percentage of hits or his demonic flair for publicity. In this first-ever biography, Howard Kissel from his decade-long investigation reveals the man, the mask, and the myth of David Merrick. The charismatic and reclusive mogul emerges as a Broadway version of Howard Hughes, with his own panoply of eccentricities, genius and neuroses. Merrick's much publicized and oftentimes staged battles and feuds are re-ignited here full force with such major personalities as Barbra Streisand, Jackie Gleason, Ethel Merman, Lena Horne, Woody Allen, Peter Ustinov, Andy Griffith, Anthony Newley, Peter Brook, and Carol Channing. Over a hundred interviews with the major players in Merrick's drama from his pre-Merrick St. Louis childhood as David Margoulies to his latest divorce has yielded the first serious interrogation of a life that until now has been the sole creation of Merrick's own invention and press wizardry.
