WHAT'S NEW
Just Released: Who Was Pope Francis
​
Jorge Mario Bergoglio, aka Pope Francis, from Argentina, was the first Jesuit pope, the first from the Americas, and the first from the Southern Hemisphere. During his time as pope, he used a humbler, less formal approach to his office than his predecessors: a warm style that was referred to as "no frills." His common touch and accessibility, as well as his insistence that the church be more open and welcoming, quickly endeared him not only to Roman Catholics but to millions of others around the world.
​
"I absolutely love this series. I have over 200 of these in my classroom and use them every single year in both reading and writing. These biographies are really written. The reading level of these books is about a third grade level, however, I do use them with older kids as a base of information when they do biographies."
​
Newly Released: Negotiating the Impossible
​
Award-winning professor from Harvard Business School offers a new and improved edition of his guide to navigating negotiation deadlock, while offering practical advice and stories of success.
Harvard professor and negotiation adviser Deepak Malhotra shows how to defuse even the most potentially explosive situations and to find success when things seem impossible in this fully expanded upon second edition.
Some negotiations are easy. Others are more difficult. And then there are situations that seem completely hopeless. Malhotra identifies three broad approaches for breaking deadlocks and resolving conflicts, and draws out scores of actionable lessons using behind-the-scenes stories of fascinating real-life negotiations, including:
•drafting of the US Constitution
•ending bitter disputes in the NFL and NHL
•and beating the odds in complex business situations.
He also shows how these same principles and tactics can be applied in everyday life, whether in a job interview or even negotiating with children. Brand new to this edition is a chapter on challenges facing today's world including how to effectively negotiate in virtual spaces, incorporate AI in your toolkit, and tackle increased polarization.
With conflict escalating and no one willing to back down, Malhotra reminds us that negotiation is always, fundamentally, about human interaction. No matter how high the stakes the object of negotiation is to engage with other human beings in a way that leads to better understandings and agreements. The principles and strategies in this book will help you do this more effectively in every situation.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
"This is a very well-written book made even more enjoyable by an excellent narrator! Narration skills are so important. if the book is not narrated well, it can destroy an audible book. I hope the narrator continues to narrate science books."
"Not a book for the impatient reader/listener. Rather amazed at this ever evolving, abstruse subject and the amount of astronomical dart throwing by so many experts. At least we can taste the complexities while the articulate book narrator leads our curiosity all the way into a black hole, providing an ending.
The narrator eased my dread from start to finish. Thanks."
"This is a good listen for many reasons. Beautifully narrated and a lovingly cooperative family journey. A glimpse into the world of medical uncertainties and determined parents. As a nurse, I am certain that medicine has limitations and horizons yet to be discovered."
