Bringing Yoga to Life
(Harper San Francisco)


In this groundbreaking work, internationally acclaimed Donna Farhi restores yoga traditional role as a complete practical philosophy for every day living. Most Yoga practice focuses on the physical aspects, or asanas, neglecting the profound spiritual teachings that are its foundation. In this beautifully written, encouraging, and down-to-earth guide, Farhi provides a blue print for understanding the complete philosophy of Yoga. For beginners and seasoned practitioners alike this book offers the tools to help us navigate the ups and downs of spiritual practice, illustrating how we can become our own teacher and obtain the deep rewards available through engagement with an authentic path. Brimming with insight gathered from over twenty years of teaching experience, this lyrical exploration of the heart of Yoga is essential for who practices this ancient tradition. (Ana Lilia Cortez)

The Call
(Harper San Francisco)


In The Invitation, visionary writer and teacher Oriah Mountain Dreamer wrote about what we long for. Then, in hers next book, In the Dance, she explored how to live this longing to the fullest. Now, in The Call, she completes the trilogy, showing us why we are here and why we must each undertake that journey from longing to living fully and deeply in the world. Each of us, Oriah believes, has our own call, our own way to discover and live fully our true selves and our heart’s desires. But the call cannot be found in the expectations of others or in outside world; it can only be found within us. And heeding it is not a matter of doing, but of accepting, “not doing”. With her trademark practical style, Oriah gently guides us through her journey to find and heed her own call. What she discovered is that to be fully human is consciously to be true who we truly are. (Ernesto Jauregui)

Resolved
(Atria Books)


The fifteenth installment in Robert K. Tanenbaum’s blistering New York Times bestselling series sees Karp up against one of his most frightening tests, and the stakes have never been higher. A convicted killer named Felix Tighe has escaped from prison and has vowed to hunt down and execute the NYPD detectives who arrested him years ago. But there’s more-Thige’s also planning a fight to the death with Chief Assistant Distric Attorney Butch Karp, the man who put him away. Felix Thige’s laser-focused, obsessive hatred of Karp has simmered during his prison confinement, where he has spent time with Feisel Abdell Ridwan, a radical Islamic fundamentalist, and their sordid connection only fuels his loathing of Karp. Now out of prison, with an assumed identity, and dangerously seeking payback, Felix stalks Karp to the very heart of his family. (Victor Garcia)

Remembering Jack
(Seuil Chronicle)


This book is a visual and audio portrait commemorating one of America’s most beloved leaders. More than 80 photographs, many of which have been rarely-if ever-published, give a moving and intimate behind-the scenes look at the life and times of John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the man and the politician. This extraordinary volume comes to life with an hour-long audio CD featuring some of Kennedy’s greatest speeches. His famed inaugural address (“Ask not what you country can do for you…) and his speech at the Berlin Wall is featured alongside surprises such as phone conversations with the governor of Mississippi about James Meredith’s university registration, horseplay with his son in the Oval Office, and discussion with Senator Fullbright about the Cuban missile crises. Most poignant of all is his commencement speech on pace. (Scheherezade Aleman)
