The Big Leap
¥99.65
Most of us believe that we will finally feel satisfied and content with our lives when we get the good news we have been waiting for, find a healthy relationship, or achieve one of our personal goals. However, this rarely happens. Good fortune is often followed by negative emotions that overtake us and result in destructive behaviors. "I don't deserve this," "this is too good to be true," or any number of harmful thought patterns prevent us from experiencing the joy and satisfaction we have earned. Sound familiarThis is what New York Times bestselling author Gay Hendricks calls the Upper Limit Problem, a negative emotional reaction that occurs when anything positive enters our lives. The Upper Limit Problem not only prevents happiness, but it actually stops us from achieving our goals. It is the ultimate life roadblock. In The Big Leap, Hendricks reveals a simple yet comprehensive program for overcoming this barrier to happiness and fulfillment, presented in a way that engages both the mind and heart. Working closely with more than one thousand extraordinary achievers in business and the arts from rock stars to Fortune 500 executives whose stories are featured in these pages, the book describes the four hidden fears that are at the root of the Upper Limit Problem.The Big Leap delivers a proven method for first identifying which of these four fears prevents us from reaching our personal upper limit, and then breaking through that limitation to achieve what Hendricks refers to as our Zone of Genius. Hendricks provides a clear path for achieving our true potential and attaining not only financial success but also success in love and life.

A polymath monarch, she was also a potent combination of traditionalist and innovator, astute enough to realize what was necessary for Egypt's continued prosperity and sufficiently ruthless to allow nothing to stand in her way.Yet our understanding of Cleopatra has been obscured by Roman propaganda, Shakespearean tragedy, and Hollywood glamour. Cleopatra the Great pieces together the pharaoh's ancient world with details about her massive library and infamous banquets, her relationships with both Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, and her skillful use of fashion and style to further her ambitions and her mystique.

Mr. Capone

All I ever did was to sell beer and whiskey to our best people. All I ever did was to supply a demand that was pretty popular.Why, the very guys that make my trade good are the ones that yell the loudest about me.

American Passage
¥99.65
For most of New York's early history, Ellis Island had been an obscure little island that barely held itself above high tide. Today the small island stands alongside Plymouth Rock in our nation's founding mythology as the place where many of our ancestors first touched American soil. Ellis Island's heyday from 1892 to 1924 coincided with one of the greatest mass movements of individuals the world has ever seen, with some twelve million immigrants inspected at its gates. In American Passage, Vincent J. Cannato masterfully illuminates the story of Ellis Island from the days when it hosted pirate hangings witnessed by thousands of New Yorkers in the nineteenth century to the turn of the twentieth century when massive migrations sparked fierce debate and hopeful new immigrants often encountered corruption, harsh conditions, and political scheming. American Passage captures a time and a place unparalleled in American immigration and history, and articulates the dramatic and bittersweet accounts of the immigrants, officials, interpreters, and social reformers who all play an important role in Ellis Island's chronicle. Cannato traces the politics, prejudices, and ideologies that surrounded the great immigration debate, to the shift from immigration to detention of aliens during World War II and the Cold War, all the way to the rebirth of the island as a national monument. Long after Ellis Island ceased to be the nation's preeminent immigrant inspection station, the debates that once swirled around it are still relevant to Americans a century later. In this sweeping, often heart-wrenching epic, Cannato reveals that the history of Ellis Island is ultimately the story of what it means to be an American.

这本乔布斯授权的官方传记,全球出版日期终确定为2011年10月24日,简体中文版也将同步上市。 原定明年3月出版的授权的传记《史蒂夫·乔布斯传》,一度提前到今年的11月21日,乔布斯病逝当天,美国出版方西蒙舒斯特宣布提前至10月24日出版,而本书终成稿已是9月下旬,但为了让这份乔布斯留给世人的后的礼物早日到达读者手中,该书简体中文版的出版方中信出版社承诺与英文版同步于10月24日上市。并透露,后续,还会为广大果粉奉献精美的包括精装书和乔布斯与家人的相册在内的限量纪念版套装。 乔布斯曾说,活着的时候不该出版自传,现在还不到回忆的时候。然而,两年前,乔布斯的妻子劳伦打电话给《时代》杂志的前总编艾萨克森,说“如果你要写他(乔布斯)的传记,那好现在就要开始了。”沃尔特?艾萨克森曾为爱因斯坦、富兰克林等名人著传,但2005年乔布斯找到他时,他拒绝了乔布斯的请求,他那时认为乔布斯仅是一个企业家而已。 两年多的时间,与乔布斯40多次的面对面倾谈,以及与乔布斯一百多个家庭成员、朋友、竞争对手、同事的不受限的采访,造就了这本独家传记。 作者:沃尔特·艾萨克森历任美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)董事长和《时代周刊》总编,他的作品包括畅销书《爱因斯坦传》,《本杰明?富兰克林传》以及《基辛格传》 尽管乔布斯给予本书的采访和创作全面的配合,但他对内容从不干涉,也不要求出版前阅读全文的权利。对于任何资源和关联的人,他都不设限,甚至鼓励他所熟知的人袒露出自己的心声。 “我已经做了很多并不值得自豪的事情,比如23岁时就让我的女友怀了孕,以及我对这件事的处理方式”,他说, “对我而言,没有什么不可以对外袒露的。” 谈及和他共过事的人以及竞争对手,他直言不讳,甚至尖酸刻薄。他的激情、精力、欲望、完美主义、艺术修养、残暴还有对掌控权的迷恋塑造出的商业哲学一览无余 同样,他的朋友、敌人,还有同事得以为我们提供了一个前所未有的毫无掩饰的视角。 他是一位极具创造力的企业家,他有如过山车般精彩的人生和犀利激越的性格,充满追求完美和誓不罢休的激情,他创造出个人电脑、动画电影、音乐、手机、平板电脑以及数字出版等6大产业的颠覆性变革。 乔布斯的个性经常让周围的人愤怒和绝望,但其所创造出的产品也与这种个性息息相关,全然不可分割的,正如苹果的硬件和软件一样。 他的故事既具有启发意义,又有警示意义,充满了关于创新、个性、领导力以及价值观的教益。
