Fair Play: What Your Child Can Teach You about Economics, Values, and the Meaning of Life by Stephen E. Landsburg, ISBN 0684827557
How should we feel about taxes that redistribute income? Ask how parents feel about children who forcibly "redistribute" other children's toys. How should we respond to those who complain that their neighbors are too wealthy? Ask how parents respond when children complain that their siblings got too much cake. By insisting that fairness can't mean one thing for children and another for adults, Landsburg shows that the instincts of the parent have profound consequences for economic justice. Along the way, Landsburg - with his customary sharp wit and challenging logic - pauses to reflect on an astonishing variety of issues in economic theory, the philosophy of parenting, the true nature of family values, and how to get the most out of life. He uses parent-child interactions to explain the economics of free trade and immigration, progressive taxation, minimum wages, racial discrimination, and the role of money. He makes the best possible philosophical cases for and against progressive taxation, and weighs them against the wisdom of the playground. He explains why children are a good thing, and why economic theory tells us we don't have enough of them. He meditates on the role of authority in our lives, the effects of cultural bias, and why it's important to read poetry to your children.

The Sisters Mallone by Louisa Ermelino, ISBN 0758204337
Growing up Italian and female among the Irish of Hell's Kitchen in the 1930s isn't for shrinking violets. Fortunately, the Mallone sisters--that's Mal-Ion-e, pronounced the Italian way--are shrewd, tough, and sharp-tongued, quick with a Lucky Strike and a good time. While their grandmother Anona insists the whole family is cursed with the evil eye. Helen, Mary, and Gracie prefer to make their own luck with everyone from mobsters to the cops on the beat. But while tough-talking Helen and flirtatious Mary have what it takes to keep the creeps away, their sweet baby sister has it bad for the notorious Frankie--a guy who never met a skirt he couldn't chase or a woman he couldn't make miserable. They're not about to let Gracie ruin her life for a wrong number like Frankie. Sisters have to stick together, no matter what. Now, in downtown Manhattan's darkened nightclub booths, where cigarette girls trade looks with small-time hoods, the sisters Mallone are hatching a wickedly devious plan, one...

Golf for Enlightenment: Seven Lessons for the Game of Life by Deepak Chopra, ISBN 0739302647
Deepak Chopra has discovered the delights--and frustrations--of golf, and he is passionate about the game. Confronted by the wild ups and downs of his own play, he consulted with golf professionals and developed a new approach to the game that any golfer can follow--from the novice to the expert. The results can be measured not only in increased enjoyment and skill, but also in greater wisdom about life beyond the 18th hole.
Chopra's own game has improved dramatically since incorporating the elements of his program. Instead of focusing on the mechanics of a "perfect" swing, Chopra reveals how golf can be mastered through mindfulness, a form of awareness that combines sharp focus and relaxation at the same time. Expanded awareness, he tells us, can accomplish much more than external mechanics to improve one's game.
But Golf for Enlightenment is also an engrossing story about Adam, an Everyman who is playing a terrible round of golf when he meets a mysterious young teaching pro named...

Man Of The Century (Full Frame)
Take a sharp-dressing, fast-talking, circa 1920s news-paperman, plant him in gritty, modern-day Manhattan and what do you get? An "audacious, Hilarious comedy!" The sidewalks of New York will never be the same thanks to Johnny Twennies (Gibson Frazier), an ace reporter who bangs out his column on an old manual typewriter and is blissfully unaware that he sticks our like a sore thumb. His girlfriend is fed up because he hasn't even kissed her, and the local mob wants to bump him off because he's hot on their trail.
