Book of Roy
"From 1998 to 2005 Neil Drabble photographed an American teenager, Roy, as he grew from adolescence to early manhood. On one level this extensive body of work can be viewed as a fascinating document of an always-compelling transition. Closer scrutiny reveals further nuances; a collaboration, a partnership, a personal portrait and at the same time a universal picture of adolescence. Drabble chose not to depict significant events that might appear in a family album nor definitive moments associated with documentary photography. Instead, these photographs concentrate on the listless, off-scene periods, the 'in between moments' of everyday life. This focus on the marginal passages of disregarded time situates the viewer at the heart of adolescence, defined as the period between childhood and adulthood, suspended between longing (for the deferred promise of adulthood) and regret (for the loss of childhood as refuge). By photographing the same person repeatedly and intimately over their formative years, a sense of mirroring began to emerge, reawakening something of the artist's own adolescent self, blurring the line between portrait and self-portrait"--Provided by publisher.
Yucan
Have you ever wondered why some people can achieve such amazing goals in their business or personal life ? I believe we can all achieve extraordinary goals in all areas of our lives? If you have a big dream, but think "I can't - it's too big, too ambitious, to extreme..." this book is for you. I used to have all those thoughts. Before I ran my first 10km run, no way did I think about a 300-mile foot race, the Yukon Arctic Ultra, in -55 degrees. When I was fixing typewriters for a living, I couldn't dream of managing a 450 strong European sales force as a senior Director. These were unthinkable goals. UNREALISTIC and UNACHIEVABLE, not even on my radar. 70 miles into the 300 mile Arctic foot race I started to build a picture of why I had managed to achieve so many "impossible" goals. Over the next 5 days, alone in the cold and dark, I developed the 7P Formula for achieving any Big Goal. If you have a Big Goal you always wanted to achieve, or a dream that you want to turn into a Big Goal, the 7P Formula will enable you to achieve it. Please join me on this journey of discovery.

Neil Young Nation
"Neil Young is a figure who straddles divisions: he's Canadian and American, folkie and rocker, an old guy relevant enough to be quoted in the suicide note of Kurt Cobain. His brilliant, gnomic, lyrical music has earned him fans of all vintages and persuasions - among them novelist Kevin Chong." "Fast approaching the dreaded age of thirty, Chong is shocked to realize that his boyhood hero is turning sixty. He takes to the road in celebration, crisscrossing the continent with three buddies and a hatbox full of space cakes to visit places central to Neil's life and career. Chong doesn't meet the man in his travels, but that was never his intention. Instead, his brief vacation from adulthood - recounted to hilarious effect in these pages - teaches him something about rock 'n' roll, contrarianism, being cool, and aging gracefully: staying Young."--BOOK JACKET.
