Nothing Is Missing is a riveting, unputdownable story of what it takes to show up for yourself—and the joy that can come once you do. Raised in a home where food was unstable and anger was the norm, Nicole learned early that she needed to take charge of her own safety and security. So she did: She got into an elite private school by talking to a stranger in her dad’s cab, she strategized her way onto Wheel of Fortune to pay for college, she adopted three girls after meeting their mother panhandling, she quit her job to launch her own business, and she struggled.

He was a Black kid with a divorced white mother, a frayed relationship with his biological father, and teachers who scolded him for being disruptive in class.

The crime of rape sizzles like a lightning strike. It pounces, flattens, destroys. A person stands whole, and in a moment of unexpected violence, that life, that body is gone. Award-winning writer and public health executive Michelle Bowdler's memoir indicts how sexual violence has been addressed for decades in our society, asking whether rape is a crime given that it is the least reported major felony, least successfully prosecuted, and fewer than three percent of rapists ever spend a day in jail.

Publisher's summary
The Horvitz Virus is a nail-biting suspense thriller about how two men who grew up under very different cultural and socioeconomic circumstances must work together to save the world from a deadly virus that has killed millions worldwide with no cure in sight.
Placed on the Virus Response Team together, Andy and Jasper must find a way not to overcome their differences, but to use those differences as a driving force to find a cure to the deadly Horvitz virus. However, their egos and stubbornness are getting in the way, and as a result, people are dying. After wasting precious time and many more lives, they finally start realizing that the future of humanity depends on their ability to step up to the challenge together and put aside their differences right now.
In their highly divided worlds, it’s going to take more than some fragile common ground to stop the Horvitz virus. It will take damn close to a miracle in bravery, vulnerability, determination, unity, empathy, compassion, and the realization that together we heal, and divided we perish. The choice is ours...

The Invisible Heart takes a provocative look at business, economics, and regulation through the eyes of Sam Gordon and Laura Silver, teachers at the exclusive Edwards School in Washington, D.C. Sam lives and breathes capitalism. He thinks that most government regulation is unnecessary or even harmful. He believes that success in business is a virtue. He believes that our humanity flourishes under economic freedom. Laura prefers Wordsworth to the Wall Street Journal.

Adam Stern was a student at a state medical school before being selected to train as a psychiatry resident at one of the most prestigious programs in the country. His new and initially intimidating classmates were high achievers from the Ivy League and other elite universities. Faculty raved about the group as though the residency program had won the lottery, nicknaming them “The Golden Class”, but would Stern ever prove that he belonged? In his memoir, Stern pulls back the curtain on the intense and emotionally challenging lessons he and his fellow doctors learned.
