You - The Owner's Manual
|

Offer Price: $15.35

You probably think you know a lot about the human body. The reality is that most of us know very little about this miraculous, scientific, and artistic system of anatomy. When it comes to your longevity and quality of life, understanding your internal systems gives you the power, authority, and ability to live a healthier, younger, and better life.
You: The Owner's Manual challenges your preconceived notions about how the human body works and ages, then takes you on a tour through all of the highways, back roads, and landmarks inside of you. You'll learn about all of your blood-pumping, food-digesting, and keys-remembering systems and organs.
Just as important, you'll get the facts and advice you need to keep your body running long and strong. You'll find out how diseases start and how they affect your body -- as well as advice on how to prevent and beat conditions that threaten your quality of life. You: The Owner's Manual gives you an easy, comprehensive, and life-changing how-to plan for fending off the gremlins of aging.

Thomas Hobbes: Leviathan
|
Normal Price: $9.95
Offer Price: $7.65
|
Knowledge Products is a leading publisher of educational audiobooks. The subject matter is primarily based on the great ideas and events of history.
Leviathan is a vigorous defense of a strong central government that was originally published in 1651, just after the English wars of 1642-49. This commentary on the work explores the social and political turmoil during which Leviathan was written, including an examination of the radical political philosophies spawned by opposition to Stuart monarchy in England. It explains the materialistic foundation of Hobbes's philosophy and how this influenced his theory of man, society, and government. Special attention is paid to Hobbes's theory of the "state of nature," the social contract, and the governmental sovereignty. The right of resistance against unjust laws and the right to liberty of conscience also are discussed.

Yummy Mummy, The
|
Normal Price: $20.98
Offer Price: $16.14

Six months after the birth of her daughter, Evie, thirtysomething Amy Crane finds her life is no longer her own. She's traded a high-pressure job in PR for something far more difficult - new motherhood. Even though she adores everything about her daughter - from her tiny blond head to that ambrosial baby smell - Amy doesn't exactly adore herself. Feeling invisible, overweight, and about as attractive as a barnyard animal, she can't relate to the smug women in her new mothers group who seem to embrace the lifestyle of nappies and organic baby food. Even worse, she suspects that Evie's father, Joe - the man she's living with but not married to is having an affair.
Then Amy meets Alice, who seems to have this mommy thing down: She's single-girl slender, for one thing, with groomed eyebrows, a smooth forehead, and killer clothes. Plus, she has a sex life. In short, she's a Yummy Mummy, one of a new breed of Pilates-practicing, Blahniks-wearing, salon-coiffed moms who manage to make motherhood look positively sexy. Under Alice's tutelage, Amy attempts to rebuild her body, wardrobe, and self-esteem, and discovers that she's got some yumminess of her own; but a new look may not be the answer to her problems as her relationship with Joe starts to unravel.

Terry Goodkind returns to the epic Sword of Truth saga in a tale of sweeping fantasy adventure bound to enthrall his growing legion of fans. In Temple of the Winds, the New York Times bestselling fourth novel in the series, the Seeker of Truth Richard Rahl and Mother Confessor Kahlan Amnell risked their lives and souls to free the land of D'Hara from the scourge of a magical plague. But in doing so they accidentally unleashed the Chimes, a magic whose threat will reach far beyond D'Hara.
Now it has become terrifyingly clear that the Chimes have the potential to bring down all that Richard and Kahlan have worked to protect, and even the power of the Sword of Truth may not be enough to stem the tide of their unleashed magical force. But if the Chimes cannot be stopped, first they will ravage Richard and Kahlan, then all of D'Hara, and then the entire world ...

An inexplicable explosion rocks the antiquities collection of a London museum and the race begins to determine how it happened, why it happened, and what it means.
Lady Kara Kensington's family paid a high price in money and blood to found the gallery that now lies in ruins. Her search for answers leads Kara and her friend Sofia al-Maaz, the gallery's curator, into a world they never dreamed existed. Evidence exposed by the tragedy suggests that Ubar, a lost city buried beneath the Arabian desert, is more than mere legend... and that something astonishing is waiting there.

What is hidden below the sand is more than a valuable relic of ancient history. It is an ageless power that lives and breathes. Many lives have already been destroyed by ruthless agencies dedicated to guarding its mysteries and harnessing its might. The end may be at hand for Kara, Sofia, Crowe, and all of the interlopers who wish to expose its mysteries, as it prepares to unleash the most terrible storm of all...
