It's an art book...photos are great, they really show the quality
of the work...and you got Ray Bradbury. This will be a collectible
for sure, definitely a book to have in every collection... --Paul
Booth All of Me Is Illustrated is the first book to feature Ray
Bradbury's treasured stories The Illustrated Man and The
Illustrated Woman together alongside the most stunning tattooed
bodies of today. Bradbury's prose reminds us so wonderfully--and at
times violently and humorously--how foolish it is to assume the
origins and meanings behind a person's tattoos. Just as with
Bradbury's characters, the motivations of the featured collectors
and artists to ink (or be inked) vary. What is undeniable is that
their illustrated bodies are a source of pride, wonder,
titillation, and beauty, whether depicting the grotesque or the
mundane. With an introduction by tattoo collector and scholar Anna
Felicity Friedman, the result is a book that showcases masters of
their craft. Hardcover, 272 pages, 9.7 X 11.9 in., 127 photographs
Stories by Ray Bradbury Tattoos by Today's Leading Artists,
including Paul Booth, Steve Butcher, Ryan Ashley Malarkey, Jessa

Anyone who remembers a moment when his or her life suddenly
required an unprecedented leap of faith will appreciate the power
of the stories in Leadership Moments: Turning Points That Changed
Lives and Organizations. Each of the ten contributing authors took
that leap, despite personal risks and odds that defied success.
Every situation in this book represents a unique turning point,
best described as a "Leadership Moment."
For example, CEO Ron Lesniak was challenged to resurrect his
company in the turbulent aftermath of 9/11, while Jon Corey's
lessons in corporate survival were gained on a Vietnam battlefield.
Arthur Jue learned powerful lessons when IBM unexpectedly slashed
thousands of jobs; Carolyn Salerno improved the academic
performance - and future prospects - of students in a school in
danger of losing its local control.
Leadership Moments offers courage to business people facing
uncertainty and opposition. As the contributors found from personal
experience, leadership emerges when we trust ourselves, tap into
inner wisdom, maintain our integrity, and always aim for the
highest good.
Ultimately, whether we are veteran managers dealing with
far-reaching business issues, or new recruits feeling our way in a
complex corporate culture - everyone can say "yes" to a Leadership
Moment!
