Book Description
The ‘90s: grunge, glitz, glamor. In a decade when the parties never seemed to end, Joey Mead emerged as one of the country’s legendary fashion icons—a host, supermodel, and VJ who was living the jet-setting life that many could only dream of having. But when the lights came on and the makeup came off, she struggled with the turmoil lurking just underneath the surface. Runaway Model is the story of Joey Mead King, from her uncertain childhood in Australia to her own peaceful, triumphant reclamation of life, even as the pandemic raged around the globe. It is a memoir of the shimmering decades of Philippine fashion—starring the places and the personalities that defined that era—as well as the dark shadows that sometimes accompanied each brightly-lit scene. But most of all, it is a story about love in all its many forms—the kind that only blossoms when you begin to love yourself.

Book Description

War veteran Peter Ash is driving through northern Nebraska when he encounters a young pregnant woman alone on a gravel road, her car dead. Peter offers her a lift, but what begins as an act of kindness soon turns into a deadly cat-and-mouse chase across the lonely highways with the woman’s vicious ex-cop husband hot on their trail. The pregnant woman has seen something she was never meant to see . . . but protecting her might prove to be more than Peter can handle. In order to save the woman and himself, Peter must use everything he has learned during his time as a Marine, including his knowledge of human nature, in order to escape a ruthless killer with instincts and skills that match—and perhaps exceed—Peter’s own.

Book Description
This enlightening examination of creativity looks “at art and science together to examine how innovations . . . build on what already exists and rely on three brain operations: bending, breaking and blending” (The Wall Street Journal) The Runaway Species is a deep dive into the creative mind, a celebration of the human spirit, and a vision of how we can improve our future by understanding and embracing our ability to innovate. David Eagleman and Anthony Brandt seek to answer the question: what lies at the heart of humanity’s ability—and drive—to create? Our ability to remake our world is unique among all living things. But where does our creativity come from, how does it work, and how can we harness it to improve our lives, schools, businesses, and institutions? Eagleman and Brandt examine hundreds of examples of human creativity through dramatic storytelling and stunning images in this beautiful, full–color volume. By drawing out what creative acts have in common and viewing them through the lens of cutting–edge neuroscience, they uncover the essential elements of this critical human ability, and encourage a more creative future for all of us. “The Runaway Species approach[es] creativity scientifically but sensitively, feeling its roots without pulling them out.” —The Economist
