"Sagittarians have an unflinching desire to care for others. They thrive on being helpful. Many Sagittarians are bachelors because the average Sagittarian is an independent human being who seeks adventure. Bland safe day-to-day co--habitation is not the Sagittarians' idea of paradise. Rather, they can be content with a roof, a dog, enough to eat and lots of dear friends around. Friends who willingly accept all Sag's moral and material handouts. Sagittarians are drawn to travel and motion, always seeking to grow their knowledge of unusual cultures and exotic places. They prosper in jobs that permit mobility. They function best in relationships which leave them lots of leeway to come and go as they please. They are happiest when learning and growing and are repelled by sameness and routine. Sagittarian women are particularly success-oriented. They can be bossy as they like to run things, their way; and they are not usually squeamish about how many dead bodies they have to clamber over in the process." 

In this book, you will discover how a Sagittarian is altered when he or she is born in a Dragon year. What is a Sagittarian born Rat like? How does being born in a Dog year affect a Sagittarius person's character? What is a Sagittarius /Tiger like? And how does he or she get along with other New Astrology™ signs? Which New Astrology™ signs make Sagittarius' best sexual partners? And which ones should they marry?

Who are our Sagittarian/Pig celebrities? Which ones are Sagittarian/Goat, Sagittarian/ Dog, Sagittarian/Snake and/or Sagittarian/Dragon or even Saigttarian/Horse?

Suzanne White's combined signs are uncannily accurate. Gift a friend with their SUN SIGN NEW ASTROLOGY BOOK and watch their eyebrows leap to the tip top of their forehead when they read what The New Astrology reveals about their most intimate, basic character.

Wall Street headhunter and former Broadway dancer, Leslie Wetzon, uncovers a stock tendering scam run by stockbrokers and the Russian mob after an elderly woman acquaintance is murdered.  A blizzard brings New York City to a halt, but doesn't stop Leslie from pursuing the murderer, even if it means her life is in danger.

“Ms. Meyers has smartened up her style in her second novel without losing the waspish wit that made her first one (The Big Killing) such nasty fun.”
                               The New York Times Book Review

“Spanning the distance from Wall Street to Coney Island, this is a fast-paced, exciting read with plenty of action to add more spice to the wheeling and dealing on the Street.”
                               The Dallas Morning News

“…one feels treated to an inside view of the little wheels that keep Wall Street turning.  This is really a fun series with its glimpses of city living at its best and worst.”
                                  St. Louis Post Dispatch

“This book is written in a very smart, very glossy manner. It’s very readable and it really does move along nicely. …one scene–a visit to the Russian émigré section of Brooklyn known as Little Odessa-is a total knock-out.”

This question led Michael Chorost to explore profound new ideas triggered by lab research around the world, and the result is the book you now hold. Marvelous and momentous, World Wide Mind takes mind-to-mind communication out of the realm of science fiction and reveals how we are on the verge of a radical new understanding of human interaction.

Chorost himself has computers in his head that enable him to hear: two cochlear implants. Drawing on that experience, he proposes that our Paleolithic bodies and our Pentium chips could be physically merged, and he explores the technologies that could do it. He visits engineers building wearable computers that allow people to be online every waking moment, and scientists working on implanted chips that would let paralysis victims communicate. Entirely new neural interfaces are being developed that let computers read and alter neural activity in unprecedented detail.

But we all know how addictive the Internet is. Chorost explains the addiction: he details the biochemistry of what makes you hunger to touch your iPhone and check your email. He proposes how we could design a mind-to-mind technology that would let us reconnect with our bodies and enhance our relationships. With such technologies, we could achieve a collective consciousness—a World Wide Mind. And it would be humankind’s next evolutionary step.

With daring and sensitivity, Chorost writes about how he learned how to enhance his own relationships by attending workshops teaching the power of touch. He learned how to bring technology and communication together to find true love, and his story shows how we can master technology to make ourselves more human rather than less.

In a global market economy, a viable business cannot be locked into a single form or function anymore. Rather, success is contingent upon a self-renewing capacity to spontaneously create structures, functions, and processes responsive to a fluctuating business landscape.
