An instant Number One New York Times bestseller, Humans of New York began in the summer of 2010, when photographer Brandon Stanton set out on an ambitious project: to single-handedly create a photographic census of New York City. Armed with his camera, he began crisscrossing the city, covering thousands of miles on foot, all in his attempt to capture ordinary New Yorkers in the most extraordinary of moments. The result of these efforts was "Humans of New York," a vibrant blog in which he featured his photos alongside quotes and anecdotes.
The blog has steadily grown, now boasting nearly a million devoted followers. Humans of New York is the book inspired by the blog. With four hundred colour photos, including exclusive portraits and all-new stories, and a distinctive vellum jacket, Humans of New York is a stunning collection of images that will appeal not just to those who have been drawn in by the outsized personalities of New York, but to anyone interested in the breathtaking scope of humanity it displays.
Heartfelt and moving, Humans of New York is a celebration of individuality and a tribute to the spirit of a city.

Delicious, satisfying recipes that are good for your health, heart,
and mind by the beloved blogger and creator of Brocc Your Body.
Self-proclaimed SoCal beach girl Carissa Stanton first earned her
nickname Brocc, not because of an obsession with broccoli (though
she thinks it's a damn good veggie), but because she hosted weekly
girl's nights with her friends who loved to cook, eat--and move
their bodies. With Justin Timberlake's Rock Your Body in mind, she
combined her love of food and created @BroccYourBody to start
sharing her favorite recipes on Instagram. Now, Stanton shares with
her hundreds of thousands of followers on Instagram how to cook for
yourself after a busy day of work just as often as they look
forward to relaxing with friends over cocktails and apps.
Seriously, So Good reflects her philosophy of feeling good about
what she's cooking and eating, making smart choices without
depriving herself of carbs or a splash of cream here and there. She
wants to remove the anxiety around food by helping us all feel more
confident in and out of the kitchen. She shares her recipes and
balanced outlook to motivate others to experience a stress-free
cooking approach while enjoying mouth-watering meals alone or with
loved ones. The 100 flavor-bomb dishes, which are approachable,
nourishing, and always fun, include all-time favorites such as her
viral Greek-Style Lemon Chicken Soup or a better-for-you take on
fast food with her "Fried" Chicken Sandwich with Special Sauce,
perfect examples of dishes representing a balanced lifestyle.
Carissa describes them as healthy, but not too healthy because
health isn't just about being able to run a marathon or eating
"clean," it's about living your life to the fullest.

Role-play simulations are a popular method for active learning in
business education. Instructors in a variety of business
disciplines use role-plays to facilitate student engagement and
promote more dynamic class environments. In this book, the authors
provide instructors of all experience levels with frameworks for
understanding role-play simulations and implementing them in their
classes. Professors Bolinger and Stanton have taught role-plays in
the classroom and online for over 30 years combined. In Role-Play
Simulations the authors describe the history and theories
underlying the use and articulate the chief benefits of the method.
They explain when and why role-play simulations are useful in
business education classes and discuss a variety of considerations
for implementing them, from advance preparation to post-activity
debriefing. The book walks the reader through specific examples of
different length simulations and their resource requirements.
Included with their insights is an annotated bibliography with
additional resources and examples of published role-play
simulations across a variety of business disciplines. Whether new
or experienced in using active learning methods and role-play
simulations in the business classroom, instructors will benefit
greatly from the wealth of information provided. The information
and advice provided will also benefit corporate trainers,
executives, or other practitioners who would like to learn more
about the use of role-play simulations as a teaching tool.
