Book Description
ELI This is it. My senior year. My last shot to get called up to play in the National Hockey League. This season is about me. Though every season is about me. I'm the captain of my university's hockey team-the top scorer both on and off the ice-and everyone on campus knows my name. I feel the pressure every single day. I can't afford to get distracted. At least, that's what I keep reminding myself because my mind keeps straying to a certain redhead-my brother's best friend. She is nothing like I had expected. She's beautiful, smart, and too sweet for her own good. But I can't think about her. This is the year to focus on myself and my dream. I need to be selfish like I always am. So, why can't I get her out of my head? LOGAN This year is all about me. I've never put myself first, but for once, I'm going to. I'm in a new city, at a new school, and with my best friend. Everything will be different here. Minnesota is a fresh start for me-I can finally leave my past behind. I don't have to think about anyone else. I shouldn't be thinking about anyone else. Except I've finally met my best friend's brother. He's tall, athletic, and the most gorgeous man I've ever laid eyes on. He's sex on legs and charming as hell. His reputation, though? A glaring red flag, telling me to stay away. But no matter what I do, I just can't stop thinking about him...

Book Description
We've needlessly turned parenting into an unpleasant chore. Parents invest more time and money in their kids than ever, but the shocking lesson of twin and adoption research is that upbringing is much less important than genetics in the long run. These revelations have surprising implications for how we parent and how we spend time with our kids. The big lesson: Mold your kids less and enjoy your life more. Your kids will still turn out fine. Selfish Reasons to Have More Kids is a book of practical big ideas. How can parents be happier? What can they change -- and what do they need to just accept? Which of their worries can parents safely forget? Above all, what is the right number of kids for you to have? You'll never see kids or parenthood the same way again.

The themes he takes up are the concepts of altruistic and selfish behaviour; the genetical definition of selfish interest; the evolution of aggressive behaviour; kinshiptheory; sex ratio theory; reciprocal altruism; deceit; and the natural selection of sex differences. 'Should be read, can be read by almost anyone. It describes with great skill a new face of the theory of evolution.' W.D. Hamilton, Science

Author: Ayn Rand Publisher: Penguin ISBN: 1101137223 Category : Philosophy Languages : en Pages : 185
Book Description
A collection of essays that sets forth the moral principles of Objectivism, Ayn Rand's controversial, groundbreaking philosophy. Since their initial publication, Rand's fictional works—Anthem, The Fountainhead, and Atlas Shrugged—have had a major impact on the intellectual scene. The underlying theme of her famous novels is her philosophy, a new morality—the ethics of rational self-interest—that offers a robust challenge to altruist-collectivist thought. Known as Objectivism, her divisive philosophy holds human life—the life proper to a rational being—as the standard of moral values and regards altruism as incompatible with man's nature. In this series of essays, Rand asks why man needs morality in the first place, and arrives at an answer that redefines a new code of ethics based on the virtue of selfishness.
