Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Once upon a time there was a happy, young girl. It would be nice if this story could begin with those enchanted words. But some stories have a much different beginning, and are anything but fairytales.Join author, Michelle Raby, as she shares her story of crippling insignificance and the struggle for emotional and spiritual survival. Raised in the dysfunction of a drug-infested home, she watched her family stream in and out of prison, while being carelessly bounced from the homes of friends to those of cruel, uncaring strangers. Robbed of innocence, and with self-worth erased, her strategies for survival became desperate, yet skillfully hidden behind a well-managed fa ade. Though the mask allowed her to maneuver through life without raising too many questions, the charade finally betrayed her, revealing her true identity and leaving her broken, exposed, and alone.Then in a life-changing moment of decision, she embarked on the process of healing, stripping away layers of her past and discovering hope from a God who determined her value and significance to be unerasable. To Be Known is a beautiful story of how broken beginnings can be ransomed and redefined into breathtaking purpose and promise. It is not a fairytale, but rather a tale of the restorative power of God; the King of the universe reaching down to rescue His beloved. A tale that is available to anyone who is willing to reach up for His hand.…

In The Beautiful Cure, leading immunologist Daniel M. Davis describes how the scientific quest to understand how the immune system works--and how it is affected by stress, sleep, age, and our state of mind--is now unlocking a revolutionary new approach to medicine and well-being. The body's ability to fight disease and heal itself is one of the great mysteries and marvels of nature. But in recent years, painstaking research has resulted in major advances in our grasp of this breathtakingly beautiful inner world: a vast and intricate network of specialist cells, regulatory proteins, and dedicated genes that are continually protecting our bodies. Far more powerful than any medicine ever invented, the immune system plays a crucial role in our daily lives. We have found ways to harness these natural defenses to create breakthrough drugs and so-called immunotherapies that help us fight cancer, diabetes, arthritis, and many age-related diseases, and we are starting to understand whether activities such as mindfulness might play a role in enhancing our physical resilience. Written by a researcher at the forefront of this adventure, The Beautiful Cure tells a dramatic story of scientific detective work and discovery, of puzzles solved and mysteries that linger, of lives sacrificed and saved. With expertise and eloquence, Davis introduces us to this revelatory new understanding of the human body and what it takes to be healthy.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. As seen on the Today Show: This true story of an unforgettable mother, her devoted daughter, and their life in the Detroit numbers of the 1960s and 1970s highlights "the outstanding humanity of black America" (James McBride). In 1958, the very same year that an unknown songwriter named Berry Gordy borrowed $800 to found Motown Records, a pretty young mother from Nashville, Tennessee, borrowed $100 from her brother to run a numbers racket out of her home. That woman was Fannie Davis, Bridgett M. Davis's mother. Part bookie, part banker, mother, wife, and granddaughter of slaves, Fannie ran her numbers business for thirty-four years, doing what it took to survive in a legitimate business that just happened to be illegal. She created a loving, joyful home, sent her children to the best schools, bought them the best clothes, mothered them to the highest standard, and when the tragedy of urban life struck, soldiered on with her stated belief: "Dying is easy. Living takes guts." A daughter's moving homage to an extraordinary parent, The World According to Fannie Davis is also the suspenseful, unforgettable story about the lengths to which a mother will go to "make a way out of no way" and provide a prosperous life for her family -- and how those sacrifices resonate over time.…
