One of the looniest pictures to come along in some time, Stir Crazy teams two of the most brilliant and zany comic performers of all time: Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder.
Skip (Wilder) and Harry (Pryor) have both been fired from their jobs, so they take off in their van for California to seek fame and fortune, but somewhere along the way the van conks out and they're broke and...well, they have to eat, right? So they land a gig as singing and dancing woodpeckers to promote a bank opening. When two bank robbers steal their costumes and stick up the bank, guess who gets the blame?
Skip and Harry are carted off to the state penitentiary for 125 years. They try to keep their sanity and their lives amidst a sadistic warden, a hulking mass-murderer and an inter-prison rodeo - all with great hilarity.

Force for Good is a bold and refreshingly balanced exploration of
positive masculinity, written to inspire men to become powerful forces
for good in a world that desperately needs them to step into this role.
The book challenges the extremes that often define the discourse around
masculinity – aggressive dominance on one side and passive
disengagement on the other. It offers a vision of true and healthy
masculinity that is both strong and gentle, fierce and safe, confident
and humble.
At its core is the conviction that men are made to be powerful forces,
but only in service of what is good. Power, often misunderstood or
negatively viewed, is essential. Without it, a man cannot fulfil his
potential or meet the needs of those who depend on him. Power itself is
neutral; how it is used determines whether it becomes a force for good
or harm.
The book is divided into three parts – Being Man, Becoming a Force, and
Doing Good – and builds a compelling case for the value of healthy
masculinity. It explores the internal and external battles men face,
the journey from boyhood to manhood, and the sacred responsibility to
grow in strength and purpose. Force for Good calls men to action, not
against others but for the good of others. It is a timely, courageous
invitation to be all that a man was made to be, because such a man will
be a Force for Good.
An adventure story, love story, travelogue, naturalist memoir, and
spiritual guide, Craig Foster's Amphibious Soul is a scientist and
adventurer’s perspective on “rewilding”―developing a deep connection to
our animal selves that can reinvigorate our lives. Told in Craig’s warm
and passionate voice, this extraordinary book will change not only the
way we interact with the natural world, but the way we fundamentally
see ourselves.
A decade ago, living in a city and feeling exhausted and empty, Craig
decided to return to his birthplace―the Cape of Good Hope―and dive into
the great African Sea forest each day. His daily oceanic adventures not
only helped him “rewild”, but helped him come to see his own
“amphibious soul” as a powerful metaphor for the human condition. We
homo sapiens are by nature wild animals attempting to exist in a docile
world. So how can we reclaim our wildness in a world that wants us to
stay so tamed?
An extraordinary literary work, Amphibious Soul is a riveting narrative
filled with meticulous descriptions of an adventure in the natural
world that speaks to readers on an intimate level, challenging us to
consider our personal relationship to nature, and inspiring us to
realign our daily practices to help save the global ecosystem. Whether
we live close to nature or in an urban jungle, Craig shows us how to
nurture our individual wildness, tap into our empathy, and deepen our
love for all living things. He teaches us to track the wild around us,
and by doing so become present in the moment and revel in being
wondrously alive.
Featuring breathtaking original photos and QR codes that access
mini-videos of never-seen-before animal interactions, Amphibious Soul
is a remarkable experience that will transform us and ultimately our
world.
Do you like the direction your decisions are taking you?
Most of us make choices we regret—choices that have moved our lives in
a direction we don't want to go. But you have the ability to break the
cycle of bad decisions and form better habits.
Drawing on Scripture, story, and the latest psychological research into
human behavior, pastor Craig Groeschel reveals the power of
"pre-deciding"—the key to consistently making choices that will lead
you out of a downward spiral and into the joy and freedom God has for
you.
With thought-provoking exercises and questions for reflection, Think
Ahead will help you:
- Understand the science behind your decision-making habits.
- Overcome decision fatigue and debilitating fears.
- Diminish the role of emotions in decision-making.
- See how your small choices shape the kind of person you become.
Pastor Craig Groeschel knows from personal experience and as a
counselor to others what it's like to feel stuck. Think Ahead will help
you define and put into action the seven life-defining pre-decisions
you can make today that will help you live the life you want to have
tomorrow.
Heard the one about the Fat Professor, the Whole-Food Dietitian and the Michelin-trained Chef who want to change the world? Nope, this is not a silly joke. Far from it. In fact, we hope this book provides some serious answers. We hope it is the beginning of a life-changing journey for many who have experienced inexplicable weight gain, the heartbreak of constant deprivation and yo-yo dieting, or worse, physical illness through poor nutrition.
For decades, the brightest minds in the nutrition and science field have had fat pegged as the bad guy. As a result, many of us have been enslaved by an outdated food pyramid which has pushed us to eat carb-laden and processed food. As the evidence mounts against sugar and processed carbohydrates, it's time to flip the pyramid and break free of the fat phobia.
In this practical guide, we present inspiring success stories, compelling evidence, and simple ways to “eat upside-down”. Forget everything you were taught at school, flip the food pyramid on its head and start nourishing your body the way it was designed to be nourished.
Successful societies can only be built on a realistic understanding of
people and their world. The call for African solutions to the
continent’s problems demands an innovative pool of knowledgeable and
skilled social researchers. With this vision in mind, the sixth edition
of Fundamentals of Social Research Methods: An African Perspective has
been transformed to include a far broader set of research skills,
compared to previous editions.
This edition covers qualitative, quantitative and mixed-methods
research, and includes an extensive new section on the analysis of both
quantitative and qualitative data. The new edition therefore offers a
solid and comprehensive foundation for the practice of social research.
Fundamentals of Social Research Methods: An African Perspective draws
examples from a broad spectrum of fields including agriculture, public
health, social welfare, community development and regional planning.
The material is compatible with social science research methodology
courses in anthropology, public health, sociology, economics, political
science, psychology and education. The textbook is suitable for
students and non-professional researchers who are interested in
conducting social research, whether they are practitioners, community
activists, government administrators, policymakers or businesspeople.
The fifth edition of this textbook is developed for a modern audience.
As authors we believe the world is a different place. Knowledge is
available to almost everyone, and competitive social media is
accessible to even people in remote areas. The book is still focused
upon a wide range of professions such as social work, psychology,
sociology, criminology, nursing, business studies and other social
contexts such as community development and governments. The book is
still intended to be a practical book, for novice researchers, as well
as for more experienced researchers.
The authors recognise the growing role of generative artificial
intelligence, large language models and machine learning that
increasingly play a disruptive role in people’s ways of negotiating the
world. Within this unstable and dynamic social world context, we still
believe in solid textbooks that teach the fundamentals of social
research in a practical and applied manner. Africa, like the rest of
the world is no exception. With increased internet accessibility and
the opening of learning abilities for all, the world has become a
smaller place, and most people now have the potential to tap into the
vast resources and tools for social science researchers. We trust that
this text remains a fundamentally essential text for Africa, for
general social researchers, and those who aspire to master the skills
of research.
The present revision not only updates the material but also introduces
substantial additions. We follow a simple, narrative and illustrative
manner of describing highly abstract concepts, with real-world examples
and case studies to assist us in transferring the essentials of social
science research methodologies. In this sense, this is a local work and
an indigenous way of knowledge transfer. The chapters end with
questions and tasks to be answered by the reader, intended to reinforce
learning. Many of the questions can be used for assessment purposes,
all to increase the excitement of learning about social research. The
authors are passionate about research and eager to make available and
unlock the complexities of the philosophy of research. We trust the
reader will enjoy this text and gain from the many examples, case
studies and situations that pose challenges to everyday researchers.
Tamoxifen Tales: Suggestions for Scientific Survival presents a
case study describing the academic journey of teams behind major
advances in medical sciences, highlighting lessons learned that are
applicable to the next generation of scientists. This book provides
a manual on the successful mentoring of young scientists, including
stories describing how training experience shaped careers to become
leaders in academia and the pharmaceutical industry. The book
documents Professor V. Craig Jordan's 50-year career in medical
sciences that led to the discovery and development of Selective
Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs), which became the standard of
women's healthcare around the world. Additionally, it illustrates
the versatility of a scientist with a commitment to serving
societies. This important resource will be a useful and interesting
book for established medical scientists, research mentors and
advanced students wanting to chart a successful and impactful
research career.
In an increasingly unpredictable world, traditional methods of planning
no longer suffice.
Four Future Seasons offers a groundbreaking approach to navigating
uncertainty, empowering readers to adapt to the future and actively
shape it.
Drawing from international experiences, doctoral research and diverse
perspectives as a global expert in futures strategy, Craig Wing’s Four
Future Seasons combines deep insights with practical strategies to
anticipate disruptions and thrive in times of change. This innova-
tive model draws from diverse and fascinating concepts such as
Rumsfeld’s ‘unknown unknowns’, the Johari Window and the timeless
wisdom of the Japanese four-season garden to offer a dynamic framework
for identifying early signals of change and respond with agility.
More than a guide for business leaders, this book is for anyone who
wants to create a better future for themselves, whether navigating
personal growth, leadership challenges or unforeseen life changes. With
personal stories of resilience and innovation woven through-
out, Four Future Seasons equips readers with the tools, foresight and
confidence to thrive through all seasons of life.
