Paperback. Condición: Good. Women Kick Ass Men still think they rule the world. Not anymore. Women have the power-right now-to harness their natural abilities and strengths, and to dominate in business. Thousands of books, articles, seminars, and programs push women to be empowered, to take charge, and to own their careers. It isn't working. Even with equal levels of education and experience and no matter what career they've chosen, women fail to make the same progress in their jobs as their male counterparts do, and that phenomenon is repeated all the way through the leadership pipeline. The number of women shrinks by half by the middle-management level, and dwindles to a fragment when it comes to promotion to the C-suite. Only 6.4% of the Fortune 500 have female CEOs. Women get fired, get discouraged and quit, or settle on jobs for which they are overqualified. Women still receive less pay than men for the same job and the same work. Men dominate the business world and wield their influence and power to perpetuate this cycle, secure in the belief that this is the natural order of society. Smashing Glass & Kicking Ass isn't about empowering you, it's about showing you that you already have all the power. This is the playbook that will teach you to capitalize on and harness your innate natural strengths, so you can: -Stop self-sabotaging -Stop sexist comments and unwanted attention -Infiltrate the Old Boys' Network and own it -Speak truth to power and not only survive, but thrive -Establish dominance, use your superior emotional intelligence, and embrace your destiny to lead Women already have the power to change the status quo-and the time for change is now. Women need to jettison the societal norms fed to them and sustained by male domination, and start using an entirely different playbook-one written by a woman, for women. This is that playbook. Linda Smith has succeeded for decades in a cutthroat, male-dominated profession, specifically by using her skills as a woman. Now she will guide you on your own quest for success. Your journey will be much easier-and more fun-when you know how to avoid the pitfalls, roadblocks, and dead ends. Buy Smashing Glass & Kicking Ass now, and start kicking assets in your career. …

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. The best book about America's first modern secret service. --Washington Post Book World In the months before World War I, FDR prepared the country for conflict with Germany and Japan by reshuffling various government agencies to create the Office of Strategic Services--America's first intelligence agency and the direct precursor to the CIA. When he charged William (Wild Bill) Donovan, a successful Wall Street lawyer and Wilkie Republican, to head up the office, the stage was set for some of the most fantastic and fascinating operations the U.S. government has ever conducted. Author Richard Harris Smith, himself an ex-CIA hand, documents the controversial agency from its conception as a spin-off of the Office of the Coordinator for Information to its demise under Harry Truman and reconfiguration as the CIA. During his tenure, Donovan oversaw a chaotic cast of some ten thousand agents drawn from the most conservative financial scions to the country's most idealistic New Deal true believers. Together they usurped the roles of government agencies both foreign and domestic, concocted unbelievably complicated conspiracies, and fought the good fight against the Axis powers of Germany and Japan. For example, when OS operatives stole vital military codebooks from the Japanese embassy in Portugal, the operation was considered a success. But the success turned into a flop as the Japanese discovered what had happened, and hastily changed a code that had already been decrypted by the U.S. Navy. Colorful personalities and truly priceless anecdotes abound in what may be called the most authoritative work on the subject.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Two unaccompanied children travel across the Mediterranean in an overcrowded boat that has been designed to only make it halfway across.   A 63-year-old man is woken one morning by border officers 'acting on a tip-off' and, despite having paid taxes for 28 years, is suddenly cast into the detention system with no obvious means of escape.   An orphan whose entire life has been spent in slavery - first on a Ghanaian farm, then as a victim of trafficking - writes to the Home Office for help, only to be rewarded with a jail sentence and indefinite detention.   These are not fictions. Nor are they testimonies from some distant, brutal past, but the frighteningly common experiences of Europe's new underclass - its refugees. While those with "citizenship" enjoy basic human rights (like the right not to be detained without charge for more than 14 days), people seeking asylum can be suspended for years in Kafka-esque uncertainty. Here, poets and novelists retell the stories of individuals who have direct experience of Britain's policy of indefinite immigration detention. Presenting their accounts anonymously, as modern day counterparts to the pilgrims' stories in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, this book offers rare, intimate glimpses into otherwise untold suffering.…

Hardback. Condición: Good. There were nine of the Smith children, and the grandmothers and cousins, and there was a big house that never quite ended, and there were the smokehouse and hog-killing and the shaking of the pecan trees, and all the delicious doings that went on in a nineteenth-century kitchen, which lingered into the early decades of the twentieth century. But above all, there was a father who, as impresario and ritual maker, polished family events so that, as the author says, Even today, a half century later, they blind the eyes with their shine. She goes on to day, But perhaps what holds it so fresh in my memory is the fact that along with all our physical play and work we lived a wild life of imagination: it was hard to keep it from spilling over into reality and painful when reality would step up and prune our flowering. That is why in this memory of Christmas in a small southern town there are sudden excursions to Versailles and the Hall of Mirrors and to the small-town Opera House and the jail in search of a Christmas gift for the parents; and it is why an elegant coffin could figure so prominently in the festivities. And why, one year, forty-eight 'real' convicts ate Christmas dinner with us.…
