As green and inexperienced as the men sent to Vietnam to fight, Frankie is over-whelmed by the chaos and destruction of war. Each day is a gamble of life and death, hope and betrayal; friendships run deep and can be shattered in an instant. In war, she meets\u2015and becomes one of\u2015the lucky, the brave, the broken, and the lost.<\/p>\n

But war is just the beginning for Frankie and her veteran friends. The real battle lies in coming home to a changed and divided America, to angry protesters, and to a country that wants to forget Vietnam.<\/p>\n

The Women\u00a0<\/span>is the story of one woman gone to war, but it shines a light on all women who put themselves in harm\u2019s way and whose sacrifice and commitment to their country has too often been forgotten. A novel about deep friendships and bold patriotism,\u00a0The Women\u00a0<\/span>is a richly drawn story with a memorable heroine whose idealism and courage under fire will come to define an era.<\/p>\n

These friends, intimates since childhood, borrow money, beg favors, and, before even graduating college, they have created their first blockbuster,\u00a0Ichigo. Overnight, the world is theirs. Not even twenty-five years old, Sam and Sadie are brilliant, successful, and rich, but these qualities won\u2019t protect them from their own creative ambitions or the betrayals of their hearts.<\/p>\n

Spanning thirty years, from Cambridge, Massachusetts, to Venice Beach, California, and lands in between and far beyond, Gabrielle Zevin\u2019s\u00a0Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow\u00a0<\/span><\/span>examines the multifarious nature of identity, disability, failure, the redemptive possibilities in play, and above all, our need to connect: to be loved and to love.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you’re having trouble changing your habits, the problem isn’t you. The problem is your system. Bad habits repeat themselves again and again not because you don’t want to change, but because you have the wrong system for change. You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems. Here, you’ll get a proven system that can take you to new heights.<\/p>\n

Clear is known for his ability to distill complex topics into simple behaviors that can be easily applied to daily life and work. Here, he draws on the most proven ideas from biology, psychology, and neuroscience to create an easy-to-understand guide for making good habits inevitable and bad habits impossible. Along the way, readers will be inspired and entertained with true stories from Olympic gold medalists, award-winning artists, business leaders, life-saving physicians, and star comedians who have used the science of small habits to master their craft and vault to the top of their field.<\/p>\n
