-Titulo Original : The Life-changing Magic Of Tidying Up The Japanese Art Of Decluttering And Organizing-Fabricante : Ten Speed Press-Descripcion Original: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * The book that sparked a revolution and inspired the hit Netflix series Tidying Up with Marie Kondo: the original guide to decluttering your home once and for all.ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL BOOKS OF THE DECADE-CNN Despite constant efforts to declutter your home, do papers still accumulate like snowdrifts and clothes pile up like a tangled mess of noodles?Japanese cleaning consultant Marie Kondo takes tidying to a whole new level, promising that if you properly simplify and organize your home once, you’ll never have to do it again. Most methods advocate a room-by-room or little-by-little approach, which doom you to pick away at your piles of stuff forever. The KonMari Method, with its revolutionary category-by-category system, leads to lasting results. In fact, none of Kondo’s clients have lapsed (and she still has a three-month waiting list). With detailed guidance for determining which items in your house “spark joy” (and which don’t), this international bestseller will help you clear your clutter and enjoy the unique magic of a tidy home-and the calm, motivated mindset it can inspire. Review “Ms. Kondo delivers her tidy manifesto like a kind of Zen nanny, both hortatory and animistic.”-The New York Times“A literal how-to-heave-ho, and I recommend it for anyone who struggles with the material excess of living in a privileged society. (Thanks to Ms. Kondo, I kiss my old socks goodbye.) . . . To show you how serious my respect for Ms. Kondo is: if I ever get a tattoo, it will say, Spark Joy!”-Jamie Lee Curtis, Time“This book lives up to its title: it will change your life.”-B.J. Novak, People“This book is a cult. A totally reasonable, scary cult that works, doesn’t kill people (a bonus), but does drastically change your life. In this case - for the better.”-BuzzFeed“The most organized woman in the world.”-PureWow“The Japanese expert’s ode to decluttering is simple and easy to follow.”-Vogue“Her voice . . . is by turns stern and enchanted, like a fairy godmother for socks.”-The Wall Street Journal“Reading it, you glimpse a glittering mental freedom from the unread/uncrafted/unworn, buyer’s remorse, the nervous eyeing of real estate listings. Life’s overwhelm, conquered.”-The Atlantic “All hail the new decluttering queen Marie Kondo, whose mess-busting bestseller has prompted a craze for tidying in homes across the world . . . one proper clear out is all you need for the rest of your life.”-Good Housekeeping (UK)“How could this pocket-sized book, which has already sold over 2 million copies and sits firmly atop the New York Times Best Seller list, make such a big promise? Heres the short answer: Because its legit. . . . Kondos method really can change your life - if you let it.”-Today “Kondo challenges you to ask yourself whether each object you have is achieving a purpose. Is it propelling you forward or holding you in the past?”-USA Today“A brief and bracing practical guide to tidying up your home.”-Financial Times“[It is] enough to salute Kondo for her recognition of something quietly profound: that mess is often about unhappiness, and that the right kind of tidying can be a kind of psychotherapy for the home as well as for the people in it . . . Its strength is its simplicity.”-The London Times About the Author Marie Kondo is a tidying expert, star of the Netflix series Tidying Up with Marie Kondo, #1 New York Times bestselling author, and founder of KonMari Media, Inc.

-Titulo Original : Franklin Barbecue A Meat-smoking Manifesto [a Cookbook]-Fabricante : Ten Speed Press-Descripcion Original: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * A complete meat and brisket-cooking education from the countrys most celebrated pitmaster and owner of the wildly popular Austin restaurant Franklin Barbecue.When Aaron Franklin and his wife, Stacy, opened up a small barbecue trailer on the side of an Austin, Texas, interstate in 2009, they had no idea what they’d gotten themselves into. Today, Franklin Barbecue has grown into the most popular, critically lauded, and obsessed-over barbecue joint in the country (if not the world)-and Franklin is the winner of every major barbecue award there is. In this much-anticipated debut, Franklin and coauthor Jordan Mackay unlock the secrets behind truly great barbecue, and share years’ worth of hard-won knowledge. Franklin Barbecue is a definitive resource for the backyard pitmaster, with chapters dedicated to building or customizing your own smoker; finding and curing the right wood; creating and tending perfect fires; sourcing top-quality meat; and of course, cooking mind-blowing, ridiculously delicious barbecue, better than you ever thought possible. Review “Aaron Franklin makes the finest barbecue I’ve ever had, barbecue worth waiting for. His work and his words express a truly rare level of commitment and expertise. With Franklin Barbecue, he shares it all-in a book that, fortunately, you don’t have to wait for.”-Anthony Bourdain “I used to think Aaron Franklin was a genius: There was his rise from backyard dabbler to king of Texas pitmasters; his mind-altering brisket that made normally rational people (myself included) wait hours for the chance to eat it; and his insistence that game-changing barbecue doesn’t come from miracles but rather elbow grease. Then he wrote this book and gave all his secrets away. Now everyone-from me to you to your neighbor who can’t grill a chicken breast-will be able to make award-winning barbecue. He’s not a genius anymore; he’s a god.” -Andrew Knowlton, restaurant and drinks editor, Bon Appetit “The most refreshing barbecue book to come along yet. Rather than preaching about ‘one true way,’ Aaron Franklin guides you through all the wood and smoke so that you can find your own style. And instead of just listing ingredients and rattling off generic recipes, these pages tell the story of a place and a barbecue tradition steeped in history. This isn’t just a book about barbecue; this book is Central Texas barbecue.” -Daniel Vaughn, barbecue editor, Texas Monthly, and author of The Prophets of Smoked Meat “Pure genius! Aaron Franklin has distilled years’ worth of barbecue knowledge into this book. In it, he exposes the sacred insights of a top pitmaster-information that can otherwise only be learned from long nights spent staring at a fire, shovel in hand, constantly prodding and pinching your meat to figure out that ‘just perfect’ point of doneness. This book is a game changer: read it, and your barbecue will improve overnight!” -Adam Perry Lang, chef, restaurateur, and author of Serious Barbecue“A complete meat-and brisket-cooking education from the country’s most celebrated pitmaster. More than just a recipe book, this is a master course in the fine art of meat smoking, Texas-style.”-Library Journal About the Author AARON FRANKLIN is a native of Bryan, Texas, and the co-owner and co-founder (along with his wife, Stacy) of Franklin Barbecue. Franklin Barbecue opened its doors in 2009, and has since gone on to win many awards, including Best Barbecue in Texas from Texas Monthly and Best Barbecue in America from Bon Appetit. Franklin is also the host of the PBS series BBQ with Franklin. He and his wife live in Austin with their daughter.JORDAN MACKAY is the wine and spirits critic for San Francisco magazine, and the coauthor of the James Beard Award-winning Secrets of the Sommeliers.

-Titulo Original : Minimalista Your Step-by-step Guide To A Better Home, Wardrobe, And Life-Fabricante : Ten Speed Press-Descripcion Original: Elevate your personal style, trim your belongings, and transform your life, one room at a time, with this visionary lifestyle and home organization book from professional organizing expert, Shira Gill.“Warm, funny, and direct, Shira builds you up while helping you edit down to the best version of yourself.”-Stacy London, New York Times bestselling author of The Truth About StyleAs a professional home organizer with clients ranging from students to multi-millionaires, Shira Gill observed that clutter is a universal stress trigger. Over the years she created a signature decluttering and organization process that promotes sustainability, achieves lasting results, and can be applied to anyone, regardless of their space or lifestyle. Rather than imposing strict rules and limitations, Shira redefines minimalism as having the perfect amount of everything-for you-based on your personal values and the limitations of your space. Now, in Minimalista, Shira shares her complete toolkit for the first time, built around five key steps: Clarify, Edit, Organize, Elevate, and Maintain. Once you learn the methodology youll dive into the hands-on work, choose-your-own-adventure style: knock out a room, or even a single drawer; style a bookshelf; donate a sweater. Shira teaches that the most important thing you can do is start, and that small victories, achieved one at a time, will snowball into massive transformation. Broken into small, bite-sized chunks, Minimalista makes it clear that if the process is fun and easy to follow, anyone can learn the principles of editing and organization. Review “Shira Gill is the funniest, wisest, most entertaining writer in the organizing game. If you only buy one book this year featuring a fake word ending in -ista, make it this one.”-Adam Mansbach, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Go the F**k to Sleep“Minimalista will help you find your dream home beneath the clutter. This book is an indispensable guide for anyone who wants to pare back to what is essential and let go of the rest.”-Laura Fenton, author of The Little Book of Living Small“Minimalista is the holy grail for curating a minimal, functional, and inviting home. Shira will not shame you for owning an abundant shoe collection or mismatched mugs, rather she encourages you to find the sweet spot for what brings you comfort and joy and let go of the rest. Her approach to organizing is simple and fun, and the #15minwin exercise is a game changer for tackling those dreaded projects you keep putting off.”-Lily Cameron, founder of The Wild Minimalist and author of Simply Sustainable “Shira has a gift for simplifying the process of organizing your home. She takes what can sometimes feel like an overwhelming task and turns it into an activity you actually want to do. Her ideas are memorable and easy to follow. This book is the resource, encouragement, and inspiration you need to create a home you love today and keep you on track in the future.”-Natalie Walton, international bestselling author of This is Home“I identified with so many of the important lessons that Shira teaches in Minimalista. Now I’ll know what book to recommend when people ask me to help them on their journey toward minimalism!”-Garance Dore, New York Times bestselling author of Love Style Life “There’s nothing more demoralizing than feeling like you have every­thing in the world, and yet want none of it.

It is as much a system of organization as a method for clarity.”-Elise Loehnen, author and former chief content officer at Goop “From providing a user-friendly tool kit on how to curate and maintain a minimalist lifestyle to giving practical guidance for simplifying our living spaces, Minimalista offers a fun, approachable framework for functional minimalism-one that ...

We’ve got a big journey ahead of us, and I, for one, am antsy to get moving.First things first. What do you need? At the very least, you need an idea for a novel. It doesn’t have to be a huge idea.

Perhaps you’ve got an idea but you don’t know if it’s worth writing. You don’t know if it “has legs” as they say in the film industry. Can it go the distance? Can it really carry you through three hundred-plus pages of prose?Or you might already have a novel fully or partially written that’s not working, that you know you have to revise. Or maybe you’ve started a book and don’t know where it’s going and now you’re stuck and in need of some inspiration.Regardless of your specific situation, I’m excited to have you along for the journey. Here’s a quick breakdown of what we’ll be covering in the following chapters (the structure of this book on structur...

I have shared The Cancer -Fighting Kitchen with my patients and their loved ones, and also with colleagues, family and friends.

-Titulo Original : Mastering Bread The Art And Practice Of Handmade Sourdough, Yeast Bread, And Pastry [a Baking Book]-Fabricante : Ten Speed Press-Descripcion Original: From a master of the artisan bread movement comes a comprehensive guide to making incredible bread at home, featuring more than 70 delicious recipes NAMED ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE ATLANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION “Here, finally, is the one bread book that every cook needs on their kitchen worktable.”-Andrew Zimmern, host of Bizarre Foods The Vetri Cucina Bread Program began over a decade ago and has been part of the American movement to reclaim high-quality bread as a cornerstone of our food culture. In Mastering Bread, Marc Vetri and his former head baker, Claire Kopp McWilliams, show home cooks how to create simple breads with unique flavors in a home oven. Included are more than seventy recipes for their bestselling sourdough and yeast loaves as well as accompaniments to serve with the breads. Their process of bread-making is broken down into three easy-to-digest chapters: Mix, Shape, and Bake. Another chapter includes recipes for enjoying breadin dishes such as Bruschetta, Panzanella, and Ribollita. There’s even a bonus chapter revealing the secrets of Vetri’s coveted Panettone. This book shares everything that Vetri and McWilliams have learned over the years about the art and science of making incredible bread. They explain how to use fresh milled and whole-grain flours as well as local and regional wheat varieties, with easy instructions for adapting bread recipes for success with whatever flour is available in your market. Included throughout are bios and interviews with grain farmers, millers, and bread bakers from around the nation. Mastering Bread is a master class from an award-winning chef who makes world-class artisan bread easy to bake for both home cooks and professionals alike. About the Author Trained in Bergamo, Italy, by some of the regions most noted chefs, Marc Vetri is the chef/owner of Pizzeria Vetri, Vetri Ristorante, Osteria, Amis, and Alla Spina, all located in Philadelphia. He has also opened a series of restaurants in partnership with Terrain, with locations in California and Texas. Vetri was named one of Food & Wines Ten Best New Chefs; he also won the James Beard Award for Best Chef Mid-Atlantic. Vetri has been profiled in Gourmet, Bon Appetit, and the New York Times, and is the author of Mastering Pasta, Mastering Pizza, Il Viaggio di Vetri, and Rustic Italian Food. Claire Kopp McWilliams developed and implemented the fresh milling program for Vetri Cucina. In 2018, McWilliams launched Ursa Bakery, a solo project using all fresh-milled, regionally-grown grains. David Joachim is the author of the New York Times best-seller A Man A Can A Plan and a co-writer on numerous cookbooks. Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved. Our Daily Bread Matters When I opened Vetri in 1998, I spent a lot of time shopping. Once a week, I went down to the vegetable market near the Philly sports stadiums, picked up fresh fish from Samuels and Sons, and stopped by the Italian market on 9th Street. Emilio Mignucci was always there, and he’d fill me up with the best cheeses from Italy. I usually got parking tickets, but it was so worth it to see and taste what I was buying. I always got my 00 flour at Di Brunos. They had the blue bag of Gran Mugnaio that I recognized, the one that I had used in New York when I was the chef at Bella Blu. I didn’t know much about flour then. I just knew that my pasta was good, and this was the stuff that I used. Nothing else really mattered. I didn’t know that much of the wheat in that bag was probably imported from America, ground into 00 flour in Italy, and sold back to us. I didn’t know that “00” really only means that it’s ground super-fine; it has nothing to do with protein content or how fresh it is. That flour had probably been ground and bagged up months if not a year before I bought it. But it didn’t matter. That was the flour I knew, the flour I was used to. Around the same time, I started buying produce from G...

Chapter One Ten Essentials for a Well-Behaved Dog Having worked with so many dogs over the years, I can tell you that every single one of them is a unique individual. And when it comes to training, each one requires a tailored approach. The dog you had growing up or at any time in the past will be different from the one you have now. In fact, if I could change one thing about how people view teaching dogs, it would be this very thing. Too often, we have the tendency to think about dogs as though they are computers simply needing to be programmed. Many people believe that you can train every dog the same way. That’s simply not true. Others think there’s one set of training principles for German Shepherds, one for Labradors, one Cocker Spaniels, and so on. This, too, is incorrect, but even some of my own colleagues fall victim to these broad stereotypes. I won’t focus on teaching you quick fixes or on getting you results with shallow or gimmicky dog training advice. Instead, I will offer you sound advice that can help you train your dog to her full potential. Throughout this book, I will help you through the most common issues people face with their dogs. And I will address each topic individually, step-by-step. However, it’s critical to know that there are some fundamentals that everyone needs to consider when training dogs-no matter what you’re teaching. As you train your dog and try to work through issues ranging from leashing pulling, barking, and jumping up to hyperactivity, anxiety, and aggressive behaviors, make sure you first address the points I cover in this chapter. The following ten basic concepts are non-negotiable for every dog if you hope to have great results: 1. Make Your Relationship Top Priority. Th...

-Titulo Original : Castle Rock Kitchen Wicked Good Recipes From The World Of Stephen King [a Cookbook]-Fabricante : Ten Speed Press-Descripcion Original: Explore 80 classic and modern recipes inspired by Stephen King’s Maine, featuring dishes from the books set in Castle Rock, Derry, and other fictional towns-with a foreword from the legendary author himself. Castle Rock Kitchen is an immersive culinary experience from the mouthwatering to the macabre, with gorgeous, moody photographs to transport Stephen King fans to kitchen tables, diners, and picnic blankets across Maine. Recipes ranging from drinks to dessert (and every course in-between) are inspired by meals and gatherings from the more than forty novels and stories set in King’s Castle Rock multiverse-a darker, more gothic version of the Maine most are familiar with. The eighty professionally developed dishes use plenty of local, down-home ingredients such as fresh seafood, potatoes, wild blueberries, and maple syrup, plus some delicacies from away-here are just a few: * Breakfast: Pancakes with the Toziers (It), Dog Days French Toast (Cujo) * Dinner: One-Handed Frittata (Under the Dome), Killer Mac and Cheese (“Gramma”) * Supper: Blue Plate Special (11/22/63), Whopper Spareribs (The Tommyknockers) * Fish and Seafood: Crab Canapes (Pet Sematary), Moose-Lickit Fish & Chips (The Colorado Kid) * Vegetarian: Wild Mushroom Hand Pies (Bag of Bones), Holy Frijole Enchiladas (Elevation) * Baking and Sweets: Hermits for the Road (The Long Walk), Blueberry Cheesecake Pie (“The Body”) * Drinks and Cocktails: Homemade Root Beer (Carrie), Deadly Moonquake (“Drunken Fireworks”) With a foreword written by Stephen King and story excerpts that connect the recipes to the books that inspired them, Castle Rock Kitchen delivers frightfully good food and drink. About the Author Theresa Carle-Sanders is a trained cook and recipe writer born and raised in Vancouver, British Columbia. After a brief career in corporate management, Theresa went back to culinary school, where she finished at the top of her class. She now combines a lifelong devotion to food and books to create cookbooks inspired by fiction, including Outlander Kitchen: The Official Outlander Companion Cookbook and Outlander Kitchen: To the New World and Back Again. After living on Pender Island, British Columbia, for eighteen years, Theresa recently moved with her husband, Howard, and their cowboy corgi, Douglas, across the country to New Brunswick. Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved. Introduction Stephen King’s Maine is not the one you know. The border between realities has worn thin in places, and the horrors that dwell on the other side cross over-sometimes unseen, other times with devastating results. The following recipes come from that Maine, so it’s fitting to have someone who lives there share them with you. You may have met Mrs. Garraty before, at the beginning of the first novel Stephen King ever wrote: The Long Walk. In the story, set in a not-so-distant dystopian future, one hundred young men volunteer to undergo an annual Walk that starts on the Maine-New Brunswick border and proceeds south until just one Walker is left standing. Ray Garraty is the home-state favorite, and a bona fide Maine’s Own, his family having lived there for generations. His mother, Mrs. Garraty, although a minor character, has an authoritative voice when it comes to Maine home cooking; she has access to family and regional recipes passed down for decades, including her Hermits for the Road (page 187), which she gives to Ray just before he starts the Walk. She also has insights into the other Stephen King stories set in Maine, having heard the tales from Castle Rock, Derry, and Chester’s Mill, to name just three of King’s fictional towns. Other characters have influenced Mrs. Garraty’s narrative voice: Dolores Claiborne, inspired by Nellie King, the author’s own mother; Stella Flanders from “The Reach,” the most Maine character he ever wrote; the moms from It; and the housewives from Needful Things. They’ve all come together to create a cookb...

-Titulo Original : Women In Science 50 Fearless Pioneers Who Changed The World-Fabricante : Ten Speed Press-Descripcion Original: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * This “wittily illustrated [and] accessible volume” (The Wall Street Journal) highlights the contributions of fifty notable women to the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) from the ancient to the modern world. “The must-read, girl-power STEM book.”-InStyle It’s a scientific fact: Women rock! This fascinating, educational collection features 50 illustrated portraits of trailblazing women in STEM throughout history.Full of striking, singular art, Women in Science also contains infographics about relevant topics such as lab equipment, rates of women currently working in STEM fields, and an illustrated scientific glossary. The trailblazing women profiled include such pioneers as primatologist Jane Goodall and mathematician Katherine Johnson, who calculated the trajectory of the 1969 Apollo 11 mission to the moon. Women in Science celebrates the achievements of the intrepid women who have paved the way for the next generation of female engineers, biologists, mathematicians, doctors, astronauts, physicists, and more! Review “This charming encyclopedia includes a page of text and a fanciful drawing of the women scientists you’ve heard of-and plenty who you haven’t! The book has good coverage of the 1800s and early 1900s-a critical time when women’s expanding participation in science was changing the very structure of how knowledge is pursued. . . . Ignotofsky’s profiles of diverse female scientists is a great addition to the shelf of any student, of any age.”-Hope Jahren, FADERmagazine “With the help of eye-catching artwork, Ignotofsky celebrates not just astronauts, but also the engineers, biologists, mathematicians, and physicists who’ve blazed a trail for women in STEM. . . . The book elevates this information with beautiful and instructive infographics that delve into topics like the number of women currently working in STEM fields.”-Entertainment Weekly “This book of illustrated biographies of scientific pioneers is hands-down gorgeous. . . . Kids will love paging through this, looking at all the detailed drawings, but they’ll likely have to rip it out of the hands of the adults who are marveling at each new page of factoids.”-Bitch Media “The world needs more books like this.”-Scientific American “A clever introduction to women scientists through history.”-Science Friday (Best Science Books of the Year) “If there were constellations celebrating the incredible accomplishments of women in science, Rachel Ignotofsky’s illustrations would serve as the blueprints. As Ignotofsky floats NASA computer programmer and mathematician Annie Easley amid rockets and stars, surrounds Higgs boson discoverer Sau Lan Wu with particles, and cradles Barbara McClintock with corn and chromosomes, she anchors her dreamy depictions into our brains. Women in Science captures the joy of so many essential discoveries while also celebrating the extraordinary lives of the women who’ve achieved them.”-Rachel Swaby, author of Headstrong: 52 Women Who Changed Science-and the World “I wish I had a daughter so I could give her a copy of Rachel Ignotofskys lovingly illustrated Women in Science. In addition to Marie Curie, Rosalind Franklin, and Ada Lovelace, the book profiles dozens of less familiar female scientists-Black, Asian, Jewish, Russian, French, in stylish dresses, lab coats, trousers, spacesuits, shorts-whose accomplishments in astronomy, physics, mathematics, biology, psychology, and computer science came as news even to me. Ignotofsky provides young women with the courage and confidence to follow the exciting paths these pioneers have blazed before them.”-Eileen Pollack, author of The Only Woman in the Room: Why Science Is Still a Boys Club “In Rachel Ignotofsky’s edifying and inspiring book we meet some of history’s most remarkable women.

Introduction On New Year’s Eve 2006, I opened Death & Co on a quiet side street in Manhattan’s East Village. Within our first couple of years of business, our bar had secured its place among the world’s leading cocktail bars, and by the time Alex became a partner in 2008, we began planning to open more Death & Co bars around the country-and perhaps one day abroad. It wasn’t a matter of if we’d open more locations, but when and where. The when, it turns out, would be more than a decade later. Early negotiations with Death & Co’s two other founding partners, Ravi and Craig, went nowhere, so I put our unfinished agreement in a drawer and focused my attention elsewhere. Alex and I started a hospitality consulting company, Proprietors LLC, and we both moved to Los Angeles. As our new lives and business took off in California, we did our best to put our dreams of opening another Death & Co to rest. We took on numerous projects around L.A., built a proper office and development lab, and expanded our consulting work across the world. As Proprietors LLC grew, so did our ambitions. We formed a partnership with L.A. nightlife impresario Cedd Moses, which allowed us to develop three new bars from the ground up: the downtown cocktail bar and dance club Honeycut, and a pair of bars inside the Normandie Hotel in Koreatown: a lively lounge called the Normandie Club, and an ambitious, omakase-inspired cocktail den called the Walker Inn.

Despite its humble ingredients-made of merely flour and water or flour and eggs-the magic, rituals, and art of pasta making span over five centuries. Two ingredients are turned into hundreds of stuffed, rolled, extruded, dried, stamped, and hand-cut shapes, each with its own unique provenance and enrobed in a favored sauce. New York City chef Missy Robbins fell in love with Italian food and pasta twenty-five years ago. She has been cooking, researching, and studying her way across Italy ever since, which led her to open two of America’s most renowned pasta restaurants, Lilia and Misi. With illustrated step-by-step recipes for handmaking forty of the most versatile pasta shapes and one hundred recipes for Italian American, regional Italian, and Robbins’s own best pasta dishes, plus two dozen vegetable sides, this is the hard-working manual for home cooks who aspire to master the art of pasta cooking. Whether making pasta sheets for lasagna or stamping out pasta “coins” for Corzetti with Goat Cheese and Asparagus-or even buying handmade pasta to make Tagliatelle with Porcini, Rosemary, and Garlic-Robbins provides all the inspiration, instruction, and encouragement required to make pasta exceptionally well. Evocatively photographed with nearly 100 full-color mouthwatering photos of pasta dishes and twenty images from Italy, this is a richly illustrated ode to the ingredients, recipes, and craft that have made pasta the most popular fare of a beloved cuisine. Review “With a 45-page section on various shapes alone, Robbins and Baoicchi answer every question you could possibly have about Italy’s most famous carb. If you’ve ever wanted to make espresso-flavored pasta dough or concoct a dreamy tortellini en brodo (both thoughts I’ve personally had), this book is for you.”-Food & Wine “…. a commanding volume on one of the world’s best-loved foods.”-Bloomberg “Missy Robbins’s immensely talented hands and mind imbue her cookbook with an amazing artistry. I can think of no other chef that is Missy’s equal. She has managed the impossible-to craft an extremely user-friendly pasta encyclopedia. Any cook, be they professional or passionate amateur, will be well equipped to navigate the prolific world of pasta guided by this beautiful cookbook. It will sit by my pasta pot, ready for action.”-Jonathan Waxman, chef and author of The Barbuto Cookbook “This book is an honest, passionate, and pure ode to pasta in its most celebrated, simplistic, and delicious form-a reminder of how two humble ingredients can rock your world and your palate. Pasta will transport you to every region of Italy. More important, it will teach you to trust each of your senses and to instinctually feel your way through pasta making.”-Athena Calderone, author of the James Beard Award-winning Cook Beautiful “I’ve long admired Missy and her ability to create beautiful, thoughtful, and simply delicious technique-driven dishes with ease. This book is an immersion in the love of craft, storytelling, and dedication to all of that.”-Kristen Kish, chef, TV personality, and author of Kristen Kish Cooking “In Italy, pasta is more than a food. It is a religion. I was raised with a mother and grandmother in the kitchen rolling out egg pasta dough every day. Flipping through this ...

Introduction Technological progress has merely provided us with more efficient means for going backwards. -ALDOUS HUXLEY I’ve heard numerous theories for why the job search is so difficult these days: unresponsive employers, an uncertain economy, outsourcing, nepotism, poor work ethic, too much reality TV. During my decade and a half as a senior career coach and programming director at Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business, I’ve helped people of all backgrounds, professions, and ages through the job search process, and I attribute its difficulty to something else entirely-technology. Technology has made our lives easier in so many ways, but it has only complicated the modern-day job search. Before internet job postings grew in popularity circa 2000, the job search was a simple (though tedious) process: STEP 1 (OPTIONAL). Find classified ads in newspaper. STEP 2. Mail resume and cover letter to potential employers. STEP 3. Wait for invitations to interview. That doesn’t sound so bad, right? Ship out resumes and cover letters, and whoever is interested writes you back. Very straightforward. And, believe it or not, it actually worked! Of course, those with connections to the potential employer still fared best, not having to rely on a piece of paper to make their first impression for them; however, cold calls by phone or mail were often all it would take to get an interview. Fast-forward a couple of decades. The internet’s in full swing, websites find relevant job postings for you, and resumes can be submitted online at any hour of the day. Although it’s easier than ever before to find jobs, why does it now seem so much harder to actually get one? In short, technology made applying for jobs so efficient that hiring became inefficient. Technology effectively ruined the “mail and wait” job search strategy because it is now far more difficult for emp...

Chapter 1 What is Etiquette? “Whenever two people come together and their behavior affects one another, you have etiquette . . . it is not some rigid code of manners; it’s simply how persons’ lives touch one another.” -Emily Post Etiquette is for everyone. We experience it whenever people interact. It is the social expectation that we have of ourselves and others. Contrary to the cliched images of staffed homes, Stepford wives, and silver dining sets, etiquette can be seen in the most humble and simple of interactions and spaces, and even between perfect strangers. While it can be fun to daydream about throwing elaborate parties, good etiquette is, at its core, about treating everyone we encounter well. You don’t need money, power, a “higher” education, or deportment classes to demonstrate it. There is no particular time in history or place in the world that defines “real” etiquette. Good etiquette isn’t formed in a particular type of household...
