Born
to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Superathletes, and
the Greatest Race the World has Never Seen
by Christopher McDougall
Isolated
by the most savage terrain in North America, the reclusive
Tarahumara Indians of Mexico's deadly Copper Canyons are custodians
of a lost art. For centuries they have practiced techniques that
allow them to run hundreds of miles without rest and chase down
anything from a deer to an Olympic marathoner while enjoying every
mile of it. |

Looking Up:
The Adventures of an Incurable Optimist
by Michael J. Fox
Michael
writes about the hard-won perspective that helped him see challenges
as opportunities. Instead of building walls around himself, he
developed a personal policy of engagement and discovery. The book is
a journey of self-discovery and reinvention, and a testament to the
consolations that protect him from the ravages of Parkinson's.

Homesteading
by Abigail Gehring
Whether
you live in the city, the suburbs, or even the wilderness, there is
plenty you can do to improve your life from a green perspective. Got
sunlight? Start container gardening. With a few plants, fresh
tomatoes, which then become canned tomato sauce, are a real option.
