Maimonides: Faith in Reason (Jewish Lives)
by Alberto ManguelAn exploration of Maimonides, the medieval philosopher, physician, and religious thinker, author of The Guide of the Perplexed, from one of the world&’s foremost bibliophiles Moses ben Maimon, or Maimonides (1138–1204), was born in Córdoba, Spain. The gifted son of a judge and mathematician, Maimonides fled Córdoba with his family when he was thirteen due to Almohad persecution of all non-Islamic faiths. Forced into a long exile, the family spent a decade in Spain before settling in Morocco. From there, Maimonides traveled to Palestine and Egypt, where he died at Saladin&’s court. As a scholar of Jewish law, a physician, and a philosopher, Maimonides was a singular figure. His work in extracting all the commanding precepts of Jewish law from the Hebrew Bible and the Talmud, interpreting and commenting on them, and translating them into terms that would allow students to lead sound Jewish lives became the model for translating God&’s word into a language comprehensible by all. His work in medicine—which brought him such fame that he became Saladin&’s personal physician—was driven almost entirely by reason and observation. In this biography, Alberto Manguel examines the question of Maimonides&’ universal appeal—he was celebrated by Jews, Arabs, and Christians alike. In our time, when the need for rationality and recognition of the truth is more vital than ever, Maimonides can help us find strategies to survive with dignity in an uncertain world.
Maimonides
by Sherwin B. NulandMoses Maimonides was a Renaissance man before there was a Renaissance: a great physician who served a sultan, a dazzling Torah scholar, a community leader, a daring philosopher whose greatest work--The Guide for the Perplexed--attempted to reconcile scientific knowledge with faith in God. He was a Jew living in a Muslim world, a rationalist living in a time of superstition. Eight hundred years after his death, his notions about God, faith, the afterlife, and the Messiah still stir debate; his life as a physician still inspires; and the enigmas of his character still fascinate. Sherwin B. Nuland, best-selling author of How We Die, focuses his surgeon's eye and writer's pen on this greatest of rabbis, most intriguing of Jewish philosophers, and most honored of Jewish doctors. He gives us a portrait of Maimonides that makes his life, his times, and his thought accessible to the general reader as they have never been before.

The Mailroom: Hollywood History from the Bottom Up
by David RensinIt's like a plot from a Hollywood potboiler: start out in the mailroom, end up a mogul. But for many, it happens to be true. Some of the biggest names in entertainment--including David Geffen, Barry Diller, and Michael Ovitz-- started their dazzling careers in the lowly mailroom. Based on more than two hundred interviews, David Rensin unfolds the never-before-told history of an American institution--in the voices of the people who lived it. Through nearly seven decades of glamour and humiliation, lousy pay and incredible perks, killer egos and a kill-or-be-killed ethos, you'll go where the trainees go, learn what they must do to get ahead, and hear the best insider stories from the Hollywood everyone knows about but no one really knows. A vibrant tapestry of dreams, desire, and exploitation, The Mailroom is not only an engrossing read but a crash course, taught by the experts, on how to succeed in Hollywood.

The Maid and the Queen
by Nancy Goldstone"Attention, 'Game of Thrones' fans: The most enjoyably sensational aspects of medieval politics--double-crosses, ambushes, bizarre personal obsessions, lunacy and naked self-interest--are in abundant evidence in Nancy Goldstone's The Maid and the Queen." (Laura Miller, Salon.com) Joan of Arc, the brave peasant girl who heard the voices of angels and helped restore her king to the throne of France, astonished her contemporaries and continues to fascinate us today. Until now, though, her relationship with Yolande of Aragon, the ambitious and beautiful queen of Sicily--mother-in-law to the dauphin--has been little known. In a stunning work filled with intrigue, madness, and mysticism, Nancy Goldstone solves the thrilling mystery by showing that if you pry open the Queen's secrets, you will find the Maid's. Caught in the complex dynastic battle of the Hundred Years War, Yolande of Aragon championed the dauphin's cause. As French hopes dimmed, a courageous young woman arrived from the farthest recesses of the kingdom. But how did she gain an audience with a king? Was it only God's hand that moved Joan of Arc--or was it also Yolande of Aragon's?
The Maid: A Novel of Joan of Arc
by Kimberly CutterA &“stunning&” novel of Joan of Arc, the fifteenth century teenage visionary who led an army and saved France (Publishers Weekly, starred review). The tumultuous Hundred Years&’ War rages on and France is under siege. English soldiers tear through the countryside destroying all who cross their paths, and Charles VII, the uncrowned king, has neither the strength nor the will to rally his army. Meanwhile, in the quiet of her parents&’ garden in Domrémy, a seventeen-year-old peasant girl has a mystical vision and hears a powerful voice speak her name: Jehanne. The story of Jehanne d&’Arc, who believed she had been chosen by God to lead an army and save her country, has captivated our imaginations for centuries. But the story of a girl whose sister was murdered by the English; who sought an escape from a violent father and a forced marriage; who taught herself to ride and fight; and who somehow found the courage to persuade thousands to follow her—is at once thrilling, surprising, and heartbreaking. &“Impressive . . . Cutter evokes the novel&’s medieval world with striking details.&” —The New York Times Book Review &“Cutter&’s portrait of &‘Jehanne&’ as a strange, gritty teenage tomboy and true believer is compelling.&” —USA Today &“Cutter strips away the romanticism in favor of a more complex portrayal that raises some provocative questions.&” —O, The Oprah Magazine

Maid: Hard Work, Low Pay, and a Mother's Will to Survive
by Stephanie Land"A single mother's personal, unflinching look at America's class divide (Barack Obama)," this New York Times bestselling memoir is the inspiration for the Netflix limited series, hailed by Rolling Stone as "a great one." At 28, Stephanie Land's dreams of attending a university and becoming a writer quickly dissolved when a summer fling turned into an unplanned pregnancy. Before long, she found herself a single mother, scraping by as a housekeeper to make ends meet.Maid is an emotionally raw, masterful account of Stephanie's years spent in service to upper middle class America as a "nameless ghost" who quietly shared in her clients' triumphs, tragedies, and deepest secrets. Driven to carve out a better life for her family, she cleaned by day and took online classes by night, writing relentlessly as she worked toward earning a college degree. She wrote of the true stories that weren't being told: of living on food stamps and WIC coupons, of government programs that barely provided housing, of aloof government employees who shamed her for receiving what little assistance she did. Above all else, she wrote about pursuing the myth of the American Dream from the poverty line, all the while slashing through deep-rooted stigmas of the working poor.Maid is Stephanie's story, but it's not hers alone. It is an inspiring testament to the courage, determination, and ultimate strength of the human spirit."A single mother's personal, unflinching look at America's class divide, a description of the tightrope many families walk just to get by, and a reminder of the dignity of all work." -PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA, Obama's Summer Reading List
Mahoma: La historia del último profeta
by Deepak ChopraDeepak Chopra nos ofrece la apasionante biografía de uno de los más grandes profetas: Mahoma. Esposo y padre de familia, Dios le habla a través de arcángel Gabriel para encomendarle una peligrosa tarea: convencer a su pueblo de que renuncie a sus ídolos ancestrales y a la veneración de múltiples dioses para confiar en un dios único. Huérfano desde los seis años, Mahoma creció en una enorme familia, convirtiéndose en un excelente comerciante. Si bien Mahoma no se consideraba el hijo de un Dios ni un iluminado, esta magnífica novela da cuenta de la vida de un ser humano ordinario, al que le ocurrió algo totalmente extraordinario que dio origen a una nueva religión, el islam, la segunda en importancia hoy en todo el mundo. Partiendo de detalles históricos, Deepak Chopra hace vivir al profeta a través de los ojos de quienes lo rodeaban. Cada voz, cada capítulo nos ofrece la vida de Mahoma y la creación del islam bajo una nueva luz. Es la historia poco conocida de un hombre y un momento histórico que cambiaron el mundo para siempre. Reseñas:«Estoy agradecido porque Deepak Chopra, en vez de agregar una inútil biografía más de Mahoma, ha creado en cambio una absorbente novela basada en la vida de Mahoma. Los lectores van a estar mejor informados tanto sobre el profeta como sobre el islam, la segunda religión más grande del mundo.»Harvey Cox, profesor de Teología de la Universidad de Hardvard «El libro ofrece al lector una lección de historia que refleja la actual relación entre el islam y el resto del mundo... Contada de manera atrayente, también ayuda, especialmente a los no musulmanes, a entender mejor las complejidades y contradicciones que rodean al islam.»Booklist «Una de las biografías de Mahoma más imaginativas y emocionantes.»Publishers Weekly
Mahler's Forgotten Conductor: Heinz Unger and his Search for Jewish Meaning, 1895–1965
by Hernan Tesler-MabéThe orchestral conductor Heinz Unger (1895–1965) was born in Berlin, Germany and was reared from a young age to follow in his father’s footsteps and become a lawyer. In 1915, he heard a Munich performance of Gustav Mahler’s Das Lied von der Erde (“The Song of the Earth”) conducted by Bruno Walter and thereafter devoted the rest of his life to music and particularly to the dissemination of Gustav Mahler’s music. This microhistorical engagement explores how the strands of German Jewish identity converge and were negotiated by a musician who spent the majority of his life trying to grasp who he was. Critical to this understanding was Gustav Mahler’s music – a music that Unger endowed with exceptional meaning and that was central to his Jewish identity. This book sets this exploration of Unger’s “performative ritual” within a biographical tale of a life lived travelling the world in search of a home, from the musician’s native Germany, to the Soviet Union, England, Spain, and finally, Canada.
