ON ABC'S GOOD MORNING AMERICA (19 OCT 09):


When Everything Changed: The Amazing Journey of American Women from 1960 to the Present, by Gail Collins. Little, Brown and Company. Kindle edition $9.99. Text-to-Speech: Enabled.
"Picking up where her previous successful, and highly lauded book, America's Women, left off, Gail Collins recounts the sea change women have experienced since 1960. A comprehensive mix of oral history and Collins's keen research, this is the definitive book about five crucial decades of progress, told with the down-to-earth, amusing, and agenda-free tone this beloved New York Times columnist is known for. The interviews with women who have lived through these transformative years include an advertising executive in the 60s who was not allowed to attend board meetings that took place in the all-male dining room; and an airline stewardess who remembered being required to bend over to light her passengers' cigars on the men-only 'Executive Flight' from New York to Chicago." - Amazon.

ON THE CBS EARLY SHOW (20 OCT 09):


What the Dog Saw, by Malcolm Gladwell. Little, Brown and Company. Kindle edition $15.39. Kindle price alert: The Kindle edition of this book costs more than the $15.11 hardcover. What's that about? Text-to-Speech: Enabled.
"What is the difference between choking and panicking? Why are there dozens of varieties of mustard - but only one variety of ketchup? What do football players teach us about how to hire teachers? What does hair dye tell us about the history of the 20th century? In the past decade, Malcolm Gladwell has written three books that have radically changed how we understand our world and ourselves: The Tipping Point; Blink; and Outliers. Now, in What the Dog Saw, he brings together, for the first time, the best of his writing from The New Yorker over the same period. ...yet another example of the buoyant spirit and unflagging curiosity that have made Malcolm Gladwell our most brilliant investigator of the hidden extraordinary." - Amazon.

ON NBC'S TODAY SHOW (23 OCT 09):


29 Gifts, by Cami Walker. Da Capo Press. Kindle edition $9.99. Text-to-Speech: Enabled.
"At age thirty-five, Cami Walker was burdened by a battle with multiple sclerosis, a chronic neurological condition that made it difficult for her to walk, work, or enjoy her life. Seeking a remedy for her depression after being hospitalized, she received an uncommon prescription from an African medicine woman: Give to others for 29 days. 29 Gifts is the insightful story of the author's life change as she embraces and reflects on the naturally reciprocal process of giving and receiving. Many of Walker's gifts were simple - a phone call, spare change, a Kleenex. Yet the acts were transformative. By Day 29, not only had Walker's health and happiness improved, but she had created a worldwide giving movement. The book also includes personal essays from others whose lives changed for the better by giving..." - Amazon.

ON NBC'S TODAY SHOW (27 OCT 09):


My Life Outside the Ring, by Hulk Hogan. Thomas Dunne Books. Kindle edition $14.29. Text-to-Speech: Enabled.
"Whether it was in the ring during his decades-long wrestling career, or in his home during his popular reality show, Hogan has spent most of his adult life in front of the cameras. But for this memoir, Hogan hoped to 'open up about everything in his life,' and it's hard to argue that he didn't succeed. From his days as a high school outcast in Florida to his ascension as perhaps the most popular wrestler of all time - 'it was like the Beatles or something,' he writes - Hogan pulls no punches along the way. The first half of the work is fascinating, as he chronicles his first exposure to wrestling, which ended in a broken leg, along with his openness about steroid use and other drugs. Once his wrestling career ends, however, the book devolves into rather uncomfortable reading..." - Publishers Weekly.
