In nearly every industry, smart machines are replacing human labor. It's not just factory jobs - automated technologies are handling people's investments, diagnosing illnesses, and analyzing written documents. If we humans are going to endure, Edward Hess and Katherine Ludwig say we're going to need a dose of humility. We need to be humble enough to let go of the idea that "smart" means knowing the most, using that information quickest, and making the fewest mistakes. Smart machines will always be better than we are at those things.

The first edition of A Complaint Is a Gift introduced the revolutionary notion that customer complaints are not annoyances to be dodged, denied, or buried but are instead valuable pieces of feedback—not to mention your best bargain in market research. Complaints provide a feedback mechanism that can help organizations rapidly and inexpensively strengthen products, service style, and market focus. Most importantly, complaints that are well received create customer loyalty.

Why are wages stagnant and wealth inequality increasing? One factor has inexplicably been left out: who owns the companies that drive the economy. Ownership gives people a claim to the fruits of free enterprise. Employee ownership gives workers—the people who have a stake in the company—a fair chance to benefit from their labors. In three simple parts, Corey Rosen and John Case create a powerful argument for why employee ownership is the answer to capitalism’s crisis and how to implement it.

Professional women are subject to blind spots—obstacles that can minimize career potential, impact, or advancement. Some women end up drifting instead of driving through their careers, and leaving their “reputationality” (that special something we are known for) to chance.

In this book, they outline six challenges women commonly face on their professional journeys and map a way to accelerate through them for higher-impact careers.

The line between good and evil blurs in this pause-resisting, suspenseful Christian fantasy on the border between earth and spirit. After the events in Attack, the Oneness returned home in triumph - all except Reese and Tyler, who remain on the road with the subversive cult leader called Jacob. Jacob’s challenge - to lay aside peace for the sword and bring true justice in a world torn apart by evil - haunts Reese, and though all she wants is to go home, it isn’t clear anymore who or what “home” is.

Tired of sitting on the defensive, Chris and Tyler go after the hive - the dark entity created when humans and demons join forces. When they disappear, Reese and the others must continue the hunt. An abandoned warehouse, a possessed teen, a children's home, a rural community, and a trail of murders - all lead to final confrontation with the enemy. And, with the truth that if the Oneness turns on itself, it becomes the greatest danger in the world.

Battling the hive - a network of humans and demons - nearly killed them all. Now, Richard and Mary take the Oneness on the offensive: Picking out their targets, the cell goes after the humans at the center of the hive one by one. Their weapons: truth, the sword, and hope that even the most desperately lost can be brought home. Their battlefield: the past, the sea, the city, and Tempter's Mountain - where secrets still wait to be uncovered.
