Soon afterembarking on this quest that would span two decades and twocontinents, he took a vow of silence that endured for 17 years. Itbegan as a silent environmental protest, but as a youngAfrican-American man, walking across the country in the early1970s, his idea of "the environment" expanded beyond concern aboutpollution and loss of habitat to include how we humans treat eachother and how we can better communicate and work together tobenefit the earth. Through his silence and walking, he learned to listen, and alongthe way, earned college and graduate degrees in science andenvironmental studies. An amazing human-interest story with a vitalmessage, Planetwalker is also an engaging coming-of-agepilgrimage.

    • Book De*ion From Haruki Murakami, internationally acclaimed author of TheWind-Up Bird Chronicle and Norwegian Wood, a work of literaryjournalism that is as fascinating as it is necessary, asprovocative as it is profound. In March of 1995, agents of a Japanese religious cult attacked theTokyo subway system with sarin, a gas twenty-six times as deadly ascyanide. Attempting to discover why, Murakami conducted hundreds ofinterviews with the people involved, from the survivors to theperpetrators to the relatives of those who died, and Underground istheir story in their own voices. Concerned with the fundamentalissues that led to the attack as well as these personal accounts,Underground is a document of what happened in Tokyo as well as awarning of what could happen anywhere. This is an enthralling andunique work of nonfiction that is timely and vital and aswonderfully executed as Murakami’s brilliant novels.

    • Robert A. Caro 编 /2003-04-01/ Random House US
    • The most riveting political biography of our time, Robert A.Caro’s life of Lyndon B. Johnson, continues. Master of theSenate takes Johnson’s story through one of its most remarkableperiods: his twelve years, from 1949 through 1960, in the UnitedStates Senate. Once the most august and revered body in politics,by the time Johnson arrived the Senate had become a parody ofitself and an obstacle that for decades had blocked desperatelyneeded liberal legislation. Caro shows how Johnson’s brilliance,charm, and ruthlessness enabled him to become the youngest and mostpowerful Majority Leader in history and how he used hisincomparable legislative genius--seducing both Northern liberalsand Southern conservatives--to pass the first Civil Rightslegislation since Reconstruction. Brilliantly weaving rich detailinto a gripping narrative, Caro gives us both a galvanizingportrait of Johnson himself and a definitive and revelatory studyof the workings of legislative power.

    • 在线阅读本书 Women make up almost half of today's labor force, but in corporateAmerica they don't share half of the power. Only four of the Fortune 500 company CEOs are women, and it's only been inthe last few years that even half of the Fortune 500companies have more than one female officer. A major reason for this? Most women were never taught how to playthe game of business. Throughout her career in the supercompetitive, male-dominated mediaindustry, Gail Evans, one of the country's most powerfulexecutives, has met innumerable women who tell her that they feellost in the workplace, almost as if they were playing a gamewithout knowing the directions. She tells them that's exactly the case: Business is indeed a game,and like any game, there are rules to playing well. For the mostpart, Gail has discovered, women don't know them. Men know these rules because they wrote them, but women oftenfeel shut out of the process because they don't know when to speakup, when to ask for responsibi
