Item Description
Interesting people are worth listening to. As well, their books are worth reading. Here is a package of three from some oh-so-interesting authors who appeared at The Music Hall as part of the Innovation + Leadership series. Broaden your brain and dig in.
Dopesick By Beth Macy
Hardcover & Autographed
In this masterful work, Beth Macy takes us into the epicenter of America's twenty-plus year struggle with opioid addiction. From distressed small communities in Central Appalachia to wealthy suburbs, from disparate cities to once-idyllic farm towns. This is a heartbreaking trajectory that illustrates how this national crisis has persisted for so long and become so firmly entrenched.
Grit by Angela Duckworth
Softcover & Autographed
In Grit, this celebrated researcher and professor—who worked early “eye-opening” stints in teaching, business consulting, and neuroscience—takes us into the field to visit cadets struggling through their first days at West Point, teachers working in some of the toughest schools, and young finalists in the National Spelling Bee. She shares what she’s learned from interviewing dozens of high achievers—from JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon to New Yorker cartoon editor Bob Mankoff to Seattle Seahawks Coach Pete Carroll.
The Wizard and The Prophet by Charles C. Mann
Hardcover & Autographed
From the best-selling, award-winning author of 1491 and 1493, an incisive portrait of two little-known twentieth-century scientists, Norman Borlaug and William Vogt. Their diametrically opposed views shaped our ideas about the environment, laying the groundwork for how people in the twenty-first century will choose to live in tomorrow's world.
