 | Shaman, M.D. by Eve Bruce
A highly successful plastic surgeon embraces shamanic healing techniques and helps her patients experience true beauty and ecstasy. * The author has been featured by Healthy Living magazine as one of the top 19 holistic healers for the millennium. * Shows readers how to embody the spiritual within the physical to shapeshift their lives on all levels. * Both an exceptional personal journey and an extraordinary exploration of the nature of real healing. As a dual board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon and the first non-Quechua woman to be initiated into the Circle of Yachaks (bird-people shamans of the Andes), Dr. Eve Bruce sees herself as an agent of change in both worlds. After traveling to Central and South America to study indigenous healing techniques, Bruce realized that although our culture is obsessed with narrowly defined standards of physical beauty, we actually devalue the physical because we separate it from the spiritual. She saw that her plastic surgery patients who felt ashamed of their vanity had the least successful outcomes. Those ready for change on emotional and spiritual levels were able to use the physical shapeshift provided by the surgeon's knife to transform their entire lives. By integrating the two healing modalities of surgeon and shaman, Bruce is able to help people shapeshift into newfound health on all levels--physical, emotional, and spiritual. Because she bore her first child at sixteen, rose to the challenges of single motherhood, and worked her way through medical school, Bruce learned early to redirect the flow of her life, turning apparent obstacles into opportunities. As a powerful example of the human capacity for self-transformation, Bruce is uniquely qualified to inspire readers to redirect their own lives to places of beauty and self-acceptance.

 | The Radetzky March by Joachim Neugroschel, Joseph Roth
Strauss's Radetzky March, signature tune of one of Europe's most powerful regimes, presides over Joseph Roth's account of three generations of the Trotta family in the years preceding the 1918 collapse of the Austro-Hungarian empire. Grandfather, son, and grandson are equally dependent on the empire: the first for his ennoblement; the second for the tradition of selfless devotion to civic duty that makes him a meticulous servant of an administration whose failure he can neither comprehend nor survive; the third for the family standards of conduct that he cannot attain but by which he is too enfeebled to rebel.
