A gripping novel about seven high-powered millionaires who each harbour a secret about their sexuality - they are all men that are part of an underground organisation on the down low: they sleep with men for pleasure. Just as King's bestselling book On the Down Low put the provocative topic of men who lie about their sexuality on the map, this new novel will have readers guessing about the real-life people behind these fictional characters - a music mogul, an NBA superstar, a pastor, a club owner, a businessman, a fashion designer and a senator.

there are two sides to every breakup. This is Jordan and Courtney, totally in love. Sure, they were an unlikely high school couple. But they clicked; it worked. They're even going to the same college, and driving cross-country together for orientation. Then Jordan dumps Courtney -- for a girl he met on the Internet. It's too late to change plans, so the road trip is on. Courtney's heartbroken, but figures she can tough it out for a few days. La la la -- this is Courtney pretending not to care. But in a strange twist, Jordan cares. A lot. Turns out, he's got a secret or two that he's not telling Courtney. And it has everything to do with why they broke up, why they can't get back together, and how, in spite of it all, this couple is destined for each other.

One of the central questions of political science has been whether politicians control the bureaucracy, or whether the bureaucracy possesses independent authority from democratic institutions of government. Relying on advanced statistical techniques and case studies, George Krause argues instead for a dynamic system of influence—one allowing for two-way interaction among the president, congress, and bureaucratic agencies. Krause argues that politicians and those responsible for implementing policy respond not only to each other, but also to events and conditions within each government institution as well as to the larger policy environment. His analysis and conclusions will challenge conventional theoretical and empirical wisdom in the field of administrative politics and public bureaucracy.

Who needs a mentor? We pose a bigger, better question: Who doesn't need a mentor? We all know that mentoring provides help early in a career, but effective mentoring can happen at every career stage, across time zones and even international borders, and over many years. Mentors and mentees in academia and other fields of endeavor need the tools to develop and maintain these critical relationships They need the skills to address important workplace issues such as appropriate behavior, generational differences, and justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion. Wherever and however good mentoring happens, it's always a two-way street, an opportunity for both mentor and mentee to learn and grow.

We cannot communicate without listening. We cannot teach without being receptive to learning. We cannot expect to be understood without understanding others. We cannot be a parent without a child.

How can the world's most powerful nations cooperate despite their conflicting interests? In Three-Way Street, Joshua S. Goldstein and John R. Freeman analyze the complex intersection defined by relations among the United States, the Soviet Union, and China over the past forty years. The authors demonstrate that three major schools of international relations theory--all game-theoretic, psychological, and quantitative-empirical approaches--have all advocated a strategy that employs cooperative initiatives and reciprocal responses in order to elicit cooperation from other countries. Critics have questioned whether such approaches can model how countries actually behave, but Goldstein and Freeman provide a wealth of detailed empirical evidence showing the existence and effectiveness of strategic reciprocity among the three countries between 1948 and 1989. Specifically, they establish that relations among the three countries have improved in recent decades through a "two steps forward, one step back" pattern. Their innovative and remarkably accessible synthesis of leading theoretical perspectives brilliantly illuminates the nature and workings of international cooperation.
