Discipline strategy
by Timothy L. Coomer
Change begins with a decision. To move beyond that decision to positive life change requires discipline. In Discipline Strategy, Dr. Coomer translates the word DISCIPLINE into an acronym for a ten-step life change process. Don’t be uncertain or confused for another day. You can become the hero of your own life’s story. The DISCIPLINE STRATEGY® approach works for both business and personal challenges and will guide you from the point of decision to accomplishment. Many of today’s self-help books offer a prescription for change but fail to provide an answer to your specific challenges. A better approach is to learn a process that supports genuine change and allows you to become your own customized expert.

Empty planet
by Darrell Jay Bricker
In Empty Planet, international social researcher Darrell Bricker and award-winning journalist John Ibbitson find that a smaller global population will bring with it many benefits: Fewer workers will command higher wages, the environment will improve, the risk of famine will wane, and falling birthrates in the developing world will bring greater affluence and autonomy for women. But enormous disruption lies ahead, too. The United States and Canada are well positioned to successfully navigate these coming demographic shifts—unless growing isolationism leads us to close ourselves off just as openness becomes more critical to our survival than ever. Rigorously researched and deeply compelling, Empty Planet offers a vision of the future that we can no longer prevent—but one that we can shape, if we choose.

Asia first
by Joyce Mao
Mao explores the deep resonance American conservatives felt with the defeat of Chiang Kai-Shek and his exile to Taiwan, which they lamented as the loss of China to communism and the corrosion of traditional values. In response, they fomented aggressive anti-communist positions that urged greater action in the Pacific, a policy known as "Asia First." While this policy would do nothing to oust the communists from China, it was powerfully effective at home. Asia First provided American conservatives a set of ideals—American sovereignty, selective military intervention, strident anti-communism, and the promotion of a technological defense state—that would bring them into the global era with the positions that are now their hallmark.

Citizen 865
by Debbie Cenziper
In a story spanning seven decades, Citizen 865 chronicles the harrowing wartime journeys of two Jewish orphans from occupied Poland who outran the men of Trawniki and settled in the United States, only to learn that some of their one-time captors had followed. A tenacious team of prosecutors and historians pursued these men and, up against the forces of time and political opposition, battled to the present day to remove them from U.S. soil. Through insider accounts and research in four countries, this urgent and powerful narrative provides a front row seat to the dramatic turn of events that allowed a small group of American Nazi hunters to hold murderous men accountable for their crimes decades after the war's end.

Pakistan in turmoil
by Mujahid Husain
Mujahid Husain is an investigative journalist whose work is without frills, focusing on facts that reveal the truth. This makes his work extremely useful because it is bare of Urdu’s usual frills and unusual because of the torrent of facts at his command. He talks in this book about “Diwaliya Pakistan” (Bankrupt Pakistan), which Urdu journalism is unfamiliar with. Those who go to English journalism for truth undiluted by emotion should read Mujahid’s book because its presentation is held together with a practical style and heretofore unknown facts. One example is his narration of contacts between Imran Khan and two Bajwas that we know little about. Of course, the first Bajwa is Lieutenant-General Asim Saleem Bajwa, and the second is General Qamar Javed Bajwa, both ironically linked to fortunes abroad. However, the latter is responsible for Khan’s final comedown. The details of these two relationships lies at the root of Pakistan’s current narrative.
