I read something once (wish I could recall where at this moment) that resonated with me: &#8220;It&#8217;s not that stereotypes are wrong, they are incomplete.&#8221; The generation that rules the world (in whatever age...]]></description>

(But not before he fell in love with me!)  I think we first went there following a Steven Pearlstein lecture at George Mason University in March.  It was raining.  The food was fantastic, the wine delicious and...]]></description>

I admit I&#8217;m a fan of his from the In Search of Excellence days. I like the format of the book &#8211; short chapters, memorable nuggets of information, lots of stories, amazing-random-fascinating information. LOVED his chapter...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oct. 29 2011 - This is a fantastic book by Simon Sinek. An easy read &#8211; very engaging and interesting and it makes so much sense! The companies he profiles are well known &#8211; Microsoft, Apple, Southwest airlines and others. He makes a very convincing case for the important of knowing your &#8220;why&#8221;, articulating that purpose...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[June 2, 2011 - A fascinating book. A non-fiction account of a woman whose cells have furthered science and medicine more than any other single factor in the last 60 years. Journalist/author Rebecca Skloot spent over a decade researching the case of Henrietta Lacks, who entered Johns Hopkins hospital in 1951 where she was diagnosed with...]]></description>

He&#8217;s a remarkable man who brings a lifetime of thought and experience to a subject few people talk about openly.

		<description><![CDATA[Feb. 7, 2011 - &#8221;Bill Moyers interviewed author Joseph Campbell in 1988 shortly before his death and these were originally aired on TV. I downloaded this series of interviews from Audible.com and enjoyed listening to them on my iPod.
