Trial by Numbers - Adam Chilton, Kyle Rozema
A significant problem within the legal profession is that many of the lawyers litigating cases and the judges deciding them have only a limited understanding of how to properly interpret empirical evidence. Trial by Numbers provides an easy way for members of the legal profession to acquire a basic understanding of the most common methods that serve as the building blocks for empirical evidence in academic articles, policy briefs, and expert witness reports. Adam Chilton and Kyle Rozema take a different approach to other introductory books on empirical methods, omitting the formulas and equations found in other books, and instead focusing on explaining the intuition and logic of common empirical methods. The work also exclusively use examples that are relevant to law school and legal practice.

Trial by Ambush - Marcia Clark
In this dramatic true account about the power of sensationalized crime, one woman’s case is exposed for its sexism, flagrant disregard for the truth, and, ultimately, the dangers posed by an unbridled prosecution.Unwanted and neglected from birth, Barbara Graham had to overcome the odds just to survive. Her beauty was both a blessing and a curse—offering her too many options of all the wrong kind. Her innate sensitivity left her vulnerable to the harsh realities of the street, where she was left to fend for herself before she reached double digits. Her record of petty crimes spoke to a life that constantly teetered on the brink of disaster.But in 1953, a catastrophic twist of fate would catapult her out of obscurity and into the headlines.When a robbery spiraled out of control and escalated into a brutal murder, Barbara became the centerpiece of a media circus. Her beauty enraptured the press, and they were quick to portray her as a villainous femme fatale despite abundant evidence to the contrary—a fiction the prosecution eagerly promoted.The frenzy of public interest and willful distortion paved a treacherous path for Barbara Graham. In Trial by Ambush, author and criminal lawyer Marcia Clark investigates the case exposing the fallacies in the demonizing picture they painted and the critical evidence that was never revealed.

Smell of Summer Grass - Adam Nicolson
The Smell of Summer Grass is the story of the years spent in finding and building a personal idyll, sometimes a dream, sometimes a nightmare, by writer Adam Nicolson and his wife, cook and gardener, Sarah Raven.Without knowing one end of a hay baler from the other, Adam Nicolson and Sarah Raven, fed up with London and with life, escaped with his family to a run-down farm in the Sussex Weald. Looking for Arcadia, they found a mixture of intense beauty and profound chaos. Over three years they struggled with dock leaves, spring flowers, bloody-minded sheep and neighbours before eventually arriving at some kind of equilibrium.Funny, poetic, ironic and wise, ‘The Smell of Summer Grass’ is based partly on the long out of print ''Perch Hill''. It traces the growing intimacy between man and his chosen place, his love affair with it and his frustrations with its intractable realities. As an attempt to live out the pastoral vision, it makes one heartfelt plea: we should never abandon our dreams.

Angel Numbers - Kyle Gray
DISCOVER THE MEANING OF ANGEL NUMBER SEQUENCES AND NUMBER PATTERNS YOU SEE FROM BEST-SELLING ANGEL EXPERT AND AUTHOR OF RAISE YOUR VIBRATION, KYLE GRAYLEARN WHAT MESSAGES YOUR ANGELS HAVE FOR YOU WHEN YOU SEE NUMBERS FROM 0 THROUGH 999 LIKE 1:11, 2:22, AND 5:55 Are you seeing repeating numbers like 11:11 and 4:44 everywhere you turn? In Angel Numbers, world-renowned angel author Kyle Gray explains exactly what your angels and spirit guides are trying to tell you through repeated number sequences you see. In this day and age, our understanding of the cosmos is all calculated using numbers, so it’s no wonder that angels, the universe’s greatest divine messengers since the dawn of time, are using numbers to send us signs and messages from heaven. There’s a good chance you’ve seen number sequences appearing time and time again in your life—on license plates, purchase receipts, flight numbers, and of course your phone—and these numbers aren’t just numbers, they’re angel numbers.They’re angel messages and calls to action. Now that we’re living in what can only be described as a digital age, angels are using the numbers we see on digital clocks, such as 11:11, 1:23, 21:12, 22:22, and 5:55 to help remind you of your higher truth. Some Example Angel Number Meanings: 12:12 You have the power to bring healing and light to the world. Notice how your intentions and actions are already doing just that.4:44 Your guardian angels want you to know that they are with you. Your prayers are being heard loud and clear. Have faith.1:23 You are moving up a step. All the challenges you have previously experienced are now being released. The angels of ascension are with you.“Kyle Gray is one of the world’s most incredibly gifted angel communicators. I have seen him work and he is authentic, intelligent, and deeply compassionate. I highly recommend him and all his creations!†– Colette Baron-Reid, international best-selling oracle expertWhenever you need guidance from your angels, simply ask. Angel Numbers is the perfect companion to refer to daily as a reminder that your angels are always listening and sending you loving messages to help with whatever you’re going through.

For fans of James Clear, Nassim Taleb, and Malcolm Gladwell: Stop being someone who could succeed and become someone who predictably should succeed by using a revolutionary “probability hacking” framework to increase your odds of success.Every goal that you’re pursuing has two hidden numbers attached to it—a probability of success and a probability of failure. Whether you’re trying to start a business, run a marathon, get a promotion, earn a pilot’s license, grow a bumper crop of tomatoes, or sign an acting deal, these two percentages are always lurking in the shadows predicting what is going to happen.But most of us never think about them. We assume our odds are unknowable and unchangeable. This dangerous lie leads millions of people to fail at goals where they were perfectly capable of succeeding. You can choose a smarter path.In Success is a Numbers Game, you’ll discover:A game-changing new way to diagram a goal and deepen your understanding of how likely you are to achieve it. A five-step framework for hacking your “success diagram” to dramatically improve your odds of getting the outcome you want.A simple test for knowing which of your biggest goals to prioritize and which to quit immediately.An upgraded approach to decision making that illuminates optimal choices by exposing potential futures.Developed by award-winning strategy consultant Kyle Austin Young — a writer for Harvard Business Review, Forbes, and Psychology Today — this probability hacking framework harnesses tactics that have been battle tested in business, art, education, philanthropy, politics, sports, and more.In the context of a single goal, Young''s system could be the secret advantage that changes your outcome. Over the course of several goals, it could transform the trajectory of your career. Applied to a lifetime of goals, it can level up your legacy.Discover the life-changing power of probabilistic thinking through a rich variety of unforgettable stories—starring Abraham Lincoln, Marilyn Monroe, a forensic pathologist who’s conducted over 20,000 autopsies, and a team of Olympic athletes who changed the course of history.If you’re ready to win more, lose less, and wake up with the sturdy confidence that comes from having the odds on your side, Success is a Numbers Game is a must-read.

The Painful Truth about Hunger in America - Mariana Chilton
A radical and urgent new approach to how we can solve the problems of hunger and poverty in the US.Most people think hunger has to do with food: researchers, policymakers, and advocates focus on promoting government-funded nutrition assistance; well-meaning organizations try to get expired or wasted food to marginalized communities; and philanthropists donate their money to the cause and congratulate themselves for doing so. But few people ask about the structural issues undergirding hunger, such as, Who benefits from keeping people in such a state of precarity? In The Painful Truth about Hunger in America, Mariana Chilton shows that the solution to food insecurity lies far beyond food and must incorporate personal, political, and spiritual approaches if we are serious about fixing the crisis.Drawing on 25 years of research, programming, and advocacy efforts, Chilton compellingly demonstrates that food insecurity is created and maintained by people in power. Taking the reader back to the original wounds in the United States caused by its history of colonization, genocide, and enslavement, she forces us to reckon with hard questions about why people in the US allow hunger to persist. Drawing on intimate interviews she conducted with many Black and Brown women, the author reveals that the experience of hunger is rooted in trauma and gender-based violence—violence in our relationships with one another, with the natural world, and with ourselves—and that if we want to fix hunger, we must transform our society through compassion, love, and connection. Especially relevant for young people charting new paths toward abolition, mutual aid, and meaningful livelihoods, The Painful Truth about Hunger in America reinvigorates our commitment to uprooting the causes of poverty and discrimination, and points to a more generative and humane world where everyone can be nourished.

Magické dítě - Joseph Chilton Pearce
Magické dítě je klasické dílo, které hluboce zpochybnilo panující názory na porodní praxi, rodičovství a vzdělávání dětí. Jeho odvážné myšlenky o tom, jak západní společnost děti poškozuje a jak bychom o ně i o sebe mohli pečovat lépe, dnes znějí pravdivěji než kdykoli předtím. Od chvíle, kdy se narodí, říká Joseph Chilton Pearce, má lidské mládě jediný zájem: naučit se o světě všechno, co se jen lze naučit. Naše planeta je dětským hřištěm a dětskou hru by nic nemělo narušovat. Za takové výchovy je magické dítě šťastný génius, který dokáže cokoli. Je vybaveno k naplnění svého úžasného potenciálu. S využitím myšlenek mezinárodně uznávaného dětského psychologa Jeana Piageta sleduje Pearce růst systému mysl-mozek od narození až do dospělosti. Alarmující nárůst autizmu, hyperaktivity, dětské schizofrenie a sebevražd dospívajících spojuje s chybami, kterých se při výchově a vzdělávání dětí běžně dopouštíme. Následně ukazuje, jak obnovit to ohromující bohatství tvůrčí inteligence, které je vrozeným právem každé lidské bytosti. Pearce zpochybnil veškeré naše představy o výchově dětí a současně s tím i naše představy o sobě samých. Jeho poselství je jednoduché: nikdy není pozdě začít si hrát, všichni jsme totiž magické děti.

American Sniper - Chris Kyle, kolektiv autorů
The #1 New York Times bestselling memoir of U.S. Navy Seal Chris Kyle, and the source for Clint Eastwood’s blockbuster, Academy-Award nominated movie. “An amazingly detailed account of fighting in Iraq--a humanizing, brave story that’s extremely readable.” — PATRICIA CORNWELL, New York Times Book Review"Jaw-dropping...Undeniably riveting." —RICHARD ROEPER, Chicago Sun-TimesFrom 1999 to 2009, U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle recorded the most career sniper kills in United States military history. His fellow American warriors, whom he protected with deadly precision from rooftops and stealth positions during the Iraq War, called him “The Legend”; meanwhile, the enemy feared him so much they named him al-Shaitan (“the devil”) and placed a bounty on his head. Kyle, who was tragically killed in 2013, writes honestly about the pain of war—including the deaths of two close SEAL teammates—and in moving first-person passages throughout, his wife, Taya, speaks openly about the strains of war on their family, as well as on Chris. Gripping and unforgettable, Kyle’s masterful account of his extraordinary battlefield experiences ranks as one of the great war memoirs of all time.

The Art of the Fold - Hedi Kyle, Ulla Warchol
"The influential artist Hedi Kyle and renowned architecture graduate Ulla Warchol shows you how to create their unique designs using folding techniques. From creating flag books and fishbones, to blizzards and nesting boxes, you''ll gain an invaluable insight into the work of two skilled artists with this fun read! With the help of their thorough instructions and simple illustrations, you''ll be on your way to becoming a pro paper crafter in no time at all" - Sew magazine"A wonderful insight into the work of a truly skilled artist" - PaperCrafterThe renowned and influential book artist Hedi Kyle shows you step-by-step how to create her unique designs using folding techniques in The Art of the Fold. Bookbinding and paper craft projects include flag books, blizzard books, the fishbone fold, and nesting boxes.Written by the doyenne of artists'' books, Hedi Kyle, The Art of the Fold is a wonderful insight into the work of a truly skilled artist. Hedi will show you how to bind a book and fold paper to create over 35 of her cut-fold book designs. The book is beautifully illustrated with Hedi''s finished works of art.An excerpt from the book:''I can still remember the thrill I experienced when my first folded book structure emerged from my fingers - how eager I was to explore its possibilities and to share it with whoever was interested. The Flag Book, as I now call it, is a simple accordion and has interlocking pages oriented in opposite directions. Little did I know that this simple structure would have legs and be the catalyst for the next forty-plus years of thinking about and making books.The common perception of the book today is fairly straightforward: a series of pages organized around a spine and protected on either side by two covers. This format allows for easy access, storage and retrieval of information. Yet what happens when the book is stripped away of centuries of preconceptions and is allowed to reveal something else: playfulness, utility, invention? Expanding the notion of the book is what the structures in the following chapters of The Art of the Fold attempt to do. Exploring its tactile, sculptural form, primarily through folding methods, the book as a structural object is celebrated while content is considered in a new and unconventional way.My range in this medium has always been broad. In part this is due to my introduction to the world of bookbinding and some chance encounters. In the 1970s in New York City, the art and craft of hand bookbinding and papermaking were experiencing an unprecedented revival. I was fortunate to arrive in the city at just this moment. With an art-school background and an impulse to make things, I was naturally drawn to pursue this new opportunity. The Center for Book Arts, the famous forerunner of so many centers yet to come, was located in a small storefront just down the street from where I lived on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Under the direction of founder Richard Minsky, it had a radical mission: to push concept, materials, printing and making of artist books in a new direction. When Richard dared me to teach at the Center one evening a week, I was hooked.My career as a book conservator and a book artist has now spanned over 45 years. As head conservator at the American Philosophical Society in Philadelphia, I''ve had the opportunity to handle some of the rarest volumes and manuscripts in the world. I have also dealt with decrepit books, torn maps and countless curiosities discovered in stacks and archives. All were endless sources for ideas and provided a springboard for a departure from tradition. Leading book-arts workshops around the world and a 25 year tenure teaching in the graduate program for Book Arts and Printmaking at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia have shown me, in retrospect, that the more I taught, the more it propelled me to experiment and develop my ideas. The many students I have had over the years were always my biggest inspiration, and they continue to be so.'' - Hedi Kyle, Pine Hill, NY Sept 2017

Shifting into High Gear - Kyle Bryant
Shifting Into High Gear charts the course of Kyle Bryant''s transformation as he journeys on a recumbent tricycle across the United States in the throes of Friedreich''s ataxia, a life-shortening and disabling disease. Full of humor and reflection, it''s a heroic journey of a man driven to reframe the language of disease through action and service. As you travel with Kyle during two cross-country bike rides through the American West, Texas, the Southern States, and finally to the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, the grueling rides become a compelling backdrop for a series of lessons and ruminations which embrace an alternative worldview and provide practical solutions to everyday problems. A thrilling adventure story, yes, Shifting Into High Gear is also ultimately about helping readers reinterpret the conditions of their lives and learning how positive thinking, purposeful connection, and deliberate actions can help anyone reach beyond their limits and live a bolder and bigger life no matter what the circumstance. Deeply passionate and compassionate, Kyle uses his amazing story to teach readers how to replace the handicapping language of "disability" with the agency to build a thriving and hopeful life. He bravely exposes the shadow-side of using disabling language and asks us to commit to a collective goal of understanding disease and its emotional impact and embrace the disabled population as equal individuals. In telling his story, Kyle''s desire is that instead of viewing disease as a deficit, we would see it as another state of being—simply as a life which strikes out on a different path.
