Oedipus The King
|
Normal Price: $11.99
Offer Price: $6.95
|
In the hands of Sophocles, the master dramatist, the anguished tale of a man fated to kill his father and marry his mother retains its power to shock and move beyond any Freudian reference.
In this new translation, performed by an outstanding cast led by Michael Sheen, the searing inevitablity facing Oedipus proves as shocking as it was 2.500 years ago when it was first presented in the theatre at Athens.

Words That Work
|
Normal Price: $20.98
Offer Price: $16.14

Why are some people so much better than others at talking their way into a job or out of trouble? What makes some advertising jingles cut through the clutter of our crowded memories? What's behind winning campaign slogans and career-ending political blunders? Why do some speeches resonate and endure while others arc forgotten moments after they are given?
The answers lie in the way words are used to influence and motivate, the way they connect thought and emotion. And no person knows more about the intersection of words and deeds than language architect and public-opinion guru Dr. Frank Luntz. In Words That Work, Dr. Luntz not only raises the curtain on the craft of effective language, but also offers priceless insight on how to find and use the right words to get what you want out of life. Whether your goal is to boost company sales, win political office, inspire your employees, or get that raise you deserve, Dr. Luntz has something instructive to say about how language can help. Learn about the phenomenon of transforming mere words into an effective arsenal for the war of perception we all wage each and every day.
DR FRANK LUNTZ was named the "hottest pollster in America" by the Boston Globe, and "has a special expertise, one that happens to be in demand these days" according to The New York Times. He is sought by CEOs of Fortune 100 companies, political candidates, public advocacy groups, and world leaders - just about anyone who wants to know how to say things better and more effectively. Dr. Luntz has supervised more than 1,200 surveys and focus groups in twenty countries, and has engineered some of the most potent political and corporate campaigns of the last decade.

Problem Of Pain, The
|
Normal Price: $12.95
Offer Price: $9.96

"It is really a pleasure to be able to praise a book unreservedly,
and that is just what I can do with The Problem of Pain."Guardian
For centuries, Christians have been tormented by one question above all: "If
God is good and all powerful, why does he allow his creatures to suffer pain?"
C. S. Lewis sets out to disentangle this knotty issue but wisely adds that, in
the end, no intellectual solution can dispense with the necessity for patience
and courage.
Clive Staples Lewis (1898-1963) was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland and was educated at Cherbourg House, Malvern College, and Oxford. He was professor of medieval and renaissance English at the University of Cambridge. His conversion from atheism to Christianity in 1931 resulted in a flow of outstanding theological books but it was The Chronicles of Narnia that he became best known for.
Earphones Awards recipient Robert Whitfield was born in England and worked for the BBC for ten years as a radio news announcer and also worked as a narrator for the Royal National Institute for the Blind in London. In addition to narrating for Blackstone Audiobooks, he involves himself in numerous stage-acting projects in the United States and Europe.

Discover Your Sales Strengths
|
Normal Price: $13.48
Offer Price: $10.37
|
In the ever-changing world of sales, there is no single, surefire, tried-and-true method that can be readily imitated by anyone to miraculously improve performance. In fact, the world's best salespeople are not characterized at all by their technique. But they do share one common trait: Successful sales reps use their individual aptitudes to succeed in their work environment. Discover Your Sales Strengths is an extraordinary program built upon the concept that every person already possesses the tools necessary to become an amazing salesperson. Grounded in extensive Gallup research conducted over 40 years and based on hundreds of thousands of interviews with sales managers, salespeople, and consumers, it teaches individuals to focus on personal strengths and talents, and them guides them to transform those assets into solid sales skills - and successful careers.
For four decades, The Gallup Organization has been gathering information and offering data-driven advice-conducting millions of interviews, compiling thousands of statistics, and building a wealth of facts about what really makes people successful (and happy) in their fields. Now Gallup uses its expertise to offer a unique, interactive StrengthsFinder.com Profile that will identify your top five talents and character traits-and help you start getting the most from them in your sales career.
Debunking the most-repeated myths about sales-from the myth that anyone can sell to the myth that a good salesperson can sell anything - Discover Your Sales Strengths shows you:
-How to understand your top five talents in sales-and focus on the ones that will help you most effectively plan your career
-How to use your strengths to have an impact on other people-and gain a competitive advantage
-How to find the right field, the right company, and the right boss for your talents
-Why different approaches to the same sale can both succeed. (There is no one right way to sell!)
A book that only The Gallup Organization could create, Discover Your Sales Strengths offers you a powerful new knowledge of who you are, what you're good at, and how you work best. And in today's world of sales, that is the most powerful tool of all.
