By Ali Velshi
"More than a century ago, MSNBC host Ali Velshi's great-grandfather sent his seven-year-old son to live at Tolstoy Farm, Gandhi's ashram in South Africa. This difficult decision would change the trajectory of his family history forever. From childhood, Velshi's grandfather was imbued with an ethos of public service and social justice, and a belief in absolute equality among all people--ideals that his children carried forward as they escaped apartheid, emigrating to Kenya and ultimately Canada and the United States. In [this book], Velshi taps into 125 years of family history to advocate for social justice as a living, breathing experience--a way of life more than an ideology. . . . He relates the stories of regular people who made a lasting commitment to fight for change, even when success seemed impossible. This. . . exploration of how we can breathe new life into the principles of pluralistic democracy is an urgent call to action; for progress to be possible, we must all do whatever we can to make a difference"--.

By Stella Grizont
"If you are feeling dissatisfied, bored, miserable, or just unenthusiastic about your work, it is not all your fault. But, as workplace happiness expert Stella Grizont asserts, it is your responsibility to do something about it. "The Work Happiness Method" teaches the eight essential skills-including Resilience, Clarity, Purpose, and Boundaries-necessary to feel happier and more fulfilled no matter where you are or who you're working with. Guiding readers step by step with evidence-based techniques, it shares the latest research on the science of happiness, leadership development, neuroscience, and behavioral economics to help explain how your mind works and how to finally wake up excited for the day ahead. There is no corporate BS or big picture commentary about adapting to the new economy, four-hour workweeks, or the freedom of self-employment and flexible schedules; it's entirely a roll-up-your-sleeves and figure-things-out-yourself approach to love your work (and life)"--
