Book Description
The world needs real men, real bad. And there are all sorts of conflicting ideas and messages about what a "real man" is (and is not). Is a real man one who hunts, loves sports, grills meat, fixes cars, and climbs mountains? Sure, sometimes. But that's not really the point of being a man and it's not the purpose for which men were made. Into our cultural confusion, Brant Hansen paints a refreshingly specific, compelling picture of what men are made to be: "Keepers of the Garden." Protectors and defenders. He calls for men of all interests and backgrounds (including "avid indoorsmen" like himself) to be ambitious about the right things and to see themselves as defenders of the vulnerable, with whatever resources they have. Using short chapters loaded with must-have wisdom and Brant's signature humor, The Men We Need explains the essence of masculinity in a fresh, thoughtful, and entertaining way that will inspire any man who dares to read it.

Book Description
In The Mirror of Her Dreams, the dazzling first volume of Mordant’s Need, New York Times bestselling author Stephen R. Donaldson introduced us to the richly imagined world of Mordant, where mirrors are magical portals into places of beauty and terror. Now, with A Man Rides Through, Donaldson brings the story of Terisa Morgan to an unforgettable conclusion. . . . Aided by the powerful magic of Vagel, the evil Arch-Imager, the merciless armies are marching against the kingdom of Mordant. In its hour of greatest need, two unlikely champions emerge. One is Geraden, whose inability to master the simplest skills of Imagery has made him a laughingstock. The other is Terisa Morgan, transferred to Mordant from a Manhattan apartment by Geraden’s faulty magic. Together, Geraden and Terisa discover undreamed-of talents within themselves—talents that make them more than a match for any Imager . . . including Vagel himself. Unfortunately, those talents also mark them for death. Branded as traitors, they are forced to flee the castle for their lives. Now, all but defenseless in a war-torn countryside ravaged by the vilest horrors Imagery can spawn, Geraden and Terisa must put aside past failures and find the courage to embrace their powers—and their love—before Vagel can spring his final trap.

Book Description
Are You Single? Good! Professional dating coach and dating advice blogger, Lana Otoya knows that you don't need a man. Your life is perfectly fine just the way it is. You have good friends. You have a good job. You're successful. And most importantly... You don't want a relationship just for the sake of having one. As a modern woman, you need a relationship for more than just the ability to get a credit card. You need a strong man who knows how to take the lead. To have someone take care of you rather than you always taking care of everyone else. But finding a man isn't really a problem for you. There are a lot of men who want to date you. Lots of messages from men on Tinder or Match.com. Weird men talking to you at the bar or hitting on you at the gym. They're everywhere! The problem isn't that you have trouble finding somebody... It's.. That you're having trouble finding somebody good. Somebody who is worth your time. You want a man who is serious. A good communicator. A man who asks you out on a date, arranges the time and place and actually meets you there. And if you can't find him, who cares! You've got a good life going anyway... ...but it would be nice... So what's so hard about finding him? Well.... Swiping on the apps is frustrating and disappointing. It takes up too much time and is emotionally draining. You feel your eyes drooping after reading bad profile after bad profile. Shallow texting conversations take all the humanity and romance out of dating. You've come to expect the last-minute date cancellations and ghosting but when it happens, it still hurts. You've pretty much given up and left your love life to destiny or chance. If this sounds familiar, you'll be happy to know that - I've been in the professional dating scene for years and it has taught me something very interesting. There really is an easier way. A faster way to get out of the dating scene and into a healthy relationship with a high-quality man. The method takes a little work, it's not magic wand, but with a minimal effort, you'll find the man who checks off all your boxes. In my book you will discover: Science based facts that will make online dating easier and more fun Why staying single is the best thing to do for your romantic relationships. How to read a man's personality so you can divorce-proof your future marriage. The final answer to the question: "Am I being too picky?" What compatibility really means and how to know if you have it with your new man The reason you're overthinking and questioning everything when it comes to men The personality traits that have made you successful in life but unsuccessful at dating The one statistic that will give you the motivation you need to keep swiping The science based reason why men ghost you I am not interested in just hooking you up with some man. I never want you to settle. There IS a man out there who checks off all your boxes, but he's a needle in the haystack. And if you're looking for a needle in a haystack, it doesn't hurt to get better at looking. So, if you're satisfied with your current life but think it would be nice to add a good man to the picture, go ahead and hit the "add to cart" button. You won't be disappointed!

Play Like a Man, Win Like a Woman
Author: Gail Evans
Publisher: Crown Currency
ISBN: 076790463X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
An honest and practical handbook that reveals important insights into relationships between men and women and work, Play Like a Man, Win Like a Woman, is a must-read for every woman who wants to leverage her power in the workplace. Women make up almost half of today's labor force, but in corporate America they don't share half of the power. Only four of the Fortune 500 company CEOs are women, and it's only been in the last few years that even half of the Fortune 500 companies have more than one female officer. A major reason for this? Most women were never taught how to play the game of business. Throughout her career in the super-competitive, male-dominated media industry, Gail Evans, one of the country's most powerful executives, has met innumerable women who tell her that they feel lost in the workplace, almost as if they were playing a game without knowing the directions. In this book, she reveals the secrets to the playbook of success and teaches women at all levels of the organization--from assistant to vice president--how to play the game of business to their advantage. Men know the rules because they wrote them, but women often feel shut out of the process because they don't know when to speak up, when to ask for responsibility, what to say at an interview, and a lot of other key moves that can make or break a career. Sharing with humor and candor her years of lessons from corporate life, Gail Evans gives readers practical tools for making the right decisions at work. Among the rules you will learn are: • How to Keep Score at Work • When to Take a Risk • How to Deal with the Imposter Syndrome • Ten Vocabulary Words That Mean Different Things to Men and Women • Why Men Can be Ugly, and You Can't • When to Quit Your Job
