RAYMOND ARROYO - Mother Angelica: The Remarkable Story of a Nun, Her Nerve, and a Network of Miracles
$11.99 - $16.00 at 3 store(s)
In 1981, a simple nun, using merely her entrepreneurial instincts and $200, launched what would become the world's largest religious media empire in the garage of a Birmingham, Alabama, monastery. Under her guidance, the Eternal Word Television Network grew at a staggering pace, both in viewership and in influence, to where it now reaches over a hundred million viewers in hundreds of countries around the globe. Raymond Arroyo combines his journalist's objectivity and eye for detail with more than five years of exclusive interviews with Mother Angelica. He traces Mother Angelica's tortured rise to success and exposes for the first time the fierce opposition she faced, both outside and inside of her church.

Deborah Tannen - You Were Always Mom's Favorite!: Sisters in Conversation Throughout Their Lives
$4.98 - $12.98 at 3 store(s)
Deborah Tannen has established herself as a foremost authority on communication, and now she turns her attention to a relationship that is often fraught with slippery linguistic traps--sisterhood. As Tannen reports, most sisters know each other's behavioral tendencies and communicative gestures so well that they sometimes discern underlying meaning that is either unconscious or unintended, which can lead either to greater kinship or greater conflict. She uses remarks and anecdotes culled from her interviews with more than one hundred sisters to illustrate how to better interpret your sibling's intent, and thus prevent miscommunication from jeopardizing one of life's most precious bonds.
