Book Description
“Say It Isn't So” is a hilarious and romantic novel with lots of drama. Walter T. Owens Sir, a well-known Judge and Roberta Owens a well-known pastor lives in Atlanta GA. They have seven siblings that are all grown and are living on their own. Life was simply beautiful. That is until all kinds of skeletons came rolling out when a very bold wife showed up on the parent's doorstep. All the wife mainly wanted to do was to lock eyes with the gold-digger that was robbing her husband blind. This novel is filled with laughter and romance as the Owens clan fines themselves in one hot mess and a world of pure unadulterated drama. It will have you in stitches, tears and perhaps an amen or two. Although we may fine a little bit of the Owens drama in our own lives, the author brings it all together in this one family. You may fine yourselves saying; what, naw, hush your mouth, say it isn't so.

How We Know What Isn't So
Author: Thomas Gilovich
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1439106746
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
Thomas Gilovich offers a wise and readable guide to the fallacy of the obvious in everyday life. When can we trust what we believe—that "teams and players have winning streaks," that "flattery works," or that "the more people who agree, the more likely they are to be right"—and when are such beliefs suspect? Thomas Gilovich offers a guide to the fallacy of the obvious in everyday life. Illustrating his points with examples, and supporting them with the latest research findings, he documents the cognitive, social, and motivational processes that distort our thoughts, beliefs, judgments and decisions. In a rapidly changing world, the biases and stereotypes that help us process an overload of complex information inevitably distort what we would like to believe is reality. Awareness of our propensity to make these systematic errors, Gilovich argues, is the first step to more effective analysis and action.

Status Anxiety
Author: Alain De Botton
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0307491331
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
“There's no writer alive like de Botton” (Chicago Tribune), and now this internationally heralded author turns his attention to the insatiable human quest for status—a quest that has less to do with material comfort than love. Anyone who’s ever lost sleep over an unreturned phone call or the neighbor’s Lexus had better read Alain de Botton’s irresistibly clear-headed new book, immediately. For in its pages, a master explicator of our civilization and its discontents explores the notion that our pursuit of status is actually a pursuit of love, ranging through Western history and thought from St. Augustine to Andrew Carnegie and Machiavelli to Anthony Robbins. Whether it’s assessing the class-consciousness of Christianity or the convulsions of consumer capitalism, dueling or home-furnishing, Status Anxiety is infallibly entertaining. And when it examines the virtues of informed misanthropy, art appreciation, or walking a lobster on a leash, it is not only wise but helpful.
