Paperback. Condition: Very Good. An invaluable guide and companion for anyone seeking greater meaning and purpose in life. A nominee for the Books for a Better Life award! As a pioneer in the field of life coaching, Laura Berman Fortgang has spent decades helping people figure out what they want to do with their lives. And so it was a bit of a surprise when a theme she heard repeatedly from clients emerged in her own thinking and would not be dismissed: work didn't feel as "meaningful" to her as it once had. It was one of those big realizations one has from time to time. The funny thing was that it turned out the "solution(s)" to her problem were quite small. In The Little Book on Meaning Laura Berman Fortgang reveals that while our hunger for a meaningful life can be enormous, our desire for meaning is usually satiated by small, bite-size morsels of meaning-the small, almost incidental events or "achievements" that comprise the fabric of our lives. According to Fortgang, meaning is where you look for it, and through tenderly drawn stories from her own life and the lives of those around her, she shows readers how they too can peek around corners to discover the small elements of their lives that truly matter.…

Hardback. Condition: Very Good. For an ambitious and public-spirited young lawyer, being a prosecutor for the federal court in the Southern District, which includes Manhattan and some of its wealthiest suburbs, is the gold ring. And ascending to the leadership role of US Attorney for the Southern District is a capstone to any career: you have responsibility for guiding a team of the best lawyers in America in deciding what cases to prosecute and then successfully executing on them, cases that often have global stakes and global visibility. Geoffrey Berman began his career as a young lawyer in the Southern District s offices; he was honoured to be tapped by Donald Trump in 2018 to return as his leader. So began one of the most tumultuous two-and-a-half-year stretches in the two-hundred-year history of the court. Almost immediately Berman found himself pushing back on Trump's Justice Department in DC on their blatant efforts to bring weak cases against political foes and squash worthy cases that threatened to tarnish allies and Trump himself. When Bill Barr became Attorney General, Berman hoped things would get better, but to his shock they got much worse. The heart of Holding the Line is his never before told account of the lengths Barr went to in corrupting the independence of the office, and the lengths Berman had to go to push back. Finally, after two and a half years, Trump and Barr, fed up with Berman's priorities, summarily fired him. Berman's courageous and principled defence of the values of judicial independence, without fear or favour, made him a hero to his colleagues, and to everyone who shares those values. Holding the Line also tells stories of the remarkable casework of the Southern District in his time there, including taking down notorious sex traffickers Jeffrey Epstein and Peter Nygard, Big Pharma CEOs, vicious criminal syndicates, and malign titans of international finance, and repatriating Nazi-looted art.…
