William Dudley Pelley
William Dudley Pelley was one of the most important figures of the anti-Semitic radical right in the twentieth century. Best remembered as the leader of the paramilitary "Silver Shirts," Pelley was also an award-winning short story writer, Hollywood screenwriter, and religious leader. During the Depression Pelley was a notorious presence in American politics; he ran for president on a platform calling for the ghettoization of American Jews and was a defendant in a headlinegrabbing sedition trial thanks to his unwavering support for Nazi Germany. Scott Beekman offers not only a political but also an intellectual and literary biography of Pelley, greatly advancing our understanding of a figure...
Truth Worth Telling
This inspiring memoir of life on the frontlines of history is a “riveting blend of investigative reporting, color commentary, and personal reminiscence” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). A 60 Minutes correspondent and former anchor of the CBS Evening News, Scott Pelley writes as a witness to events that changed our world. In moving, detailed prose, he stands with firefighters at the collapsing World Trade Center on 9/11, advances with American troops in combat in Afghanistan and Iraq, and reveals private moments with presidents (and would-be presidents) he’s known for decades. Pelley also offers a resounding defense of free speech and a free press as the rights that guarantee all others. Above all, Truth Worth Telling offers a collection of inspiring tales that reminds us of the importance of sticking to our values in uncertain times. For readers who believe that values matter, and that truth is worth telling, Pelley writes, “I have written this book for you.”
Fifty Years of 60 Minutes

Strategy and Sustainability
Business and environmental sustainability are not natural bedfellows. Business is about making money; sustainability is about protecting the planet. Business is measured in months and quarters; sustainability often requires significant short term costs to secure a sometimes uncertain long-term benefit. To some activists, all executives are exploitative, selfish “1 percenters”. To some executives, all activists are irresponsible, unyielding extremists. And yet engaging with the issue isn’t optional – all businesses must have a strategy to deal with sustainability and, like any strategy, this involves making choices. Strategy and Sustainability encourages its readers to filter out the ...
Your Life, Your Way
Many people living in this country are unhappy with their overall quality of life. Michael Morris, a therapist of more than thirty years, knows that firsthand. He has helped thousands of people overcome emotional, psychological, physical, and other types of trauma. The Foundation Forty lifestyle is a tool that provides guidelines to create a high quality of life—one that is in line with your best interests. Position yourself to: • set in motion the dynamics of change for a happy and healthy life; • move past the unfortunate lifestyle that has become a reality for most Americans; • resolve disagreements and cultivate more meaningful relationships with others. The author also examines the reasons why so many people are unhappy, noting that most Americans have lived with the horrors of war and terrorism their entire lives. This level of stress, however comfortable you get with it, reduces the ability of society and individuals to function at their best.
Walking Life's Road
Our spiritual life can be as unique as our fingerprints. It is a mistake to judge another person's path against your own. In order for us to become what we want to be, we must learn to accept ourselves at the very place in life where we are right now. We must learn to anchor ourselves in the present. We must be fully aware of each moment in each day and understand how it affects us. Just as the "Serenity Prayer" says" "God, grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the Courage to change the things I can, and the Wisdom to know the difference." The best way to cement your self-esteem is to reach out and help others. It helps you feel connected and makes your own problems and concerns less overwhelming. Learn to laugh at yourself and don't make everyone around you have to walk on eggshells. You must learn to create a safe, non-judgmental space for your friends and family around you. Don't spend so much time worrying about things that have happened and dreading something unforeseen in your future. Everything is okay at this moment, so enjoy it, because it's yours.

Murdering the Message
For decades, professional journalists have exposed the stories that bind us as one people through vivid storytelling. They have covered historical times, periods of grief and strife, wondrous triumphs and joy, and the truth that may have been previously hidden. The invention of the internet, social media, and reality-based journalism has given rise to instances of fake news and reports skewed toward a political side to gain readership and monetary gains. Up-and-coming journalists must look to their predecessors who’ve detailed in Murdering the Message how they discovered their journalistic calling and proceeded to follow this call faithfully, ethically, and factually. These fledglings simply learn from the greats how to become real journalists who avoid bias, follow the basic journalistic principles and standards, and balance themselves on a fine line when covering legitimate news. Using their predecessors as examples, they can educate themselves on how to report the news in this technological age while governing journalism in our current society.
