Adelson S: The Bigger You Think

The Bigger You Think

70 Years of Entrepreneurial Success in Business, Philanthropy, Love, and Life

The Money Dilemma recounts Frank Giustra's extraordinary life-from poverty to riches, indulgence to social responsibility, Type-A drive to peace and contentment-with soul-searching honesty and a rare gift for storytelling. The son of a poor, hard-rock miner, Giustra grew up in southern Italy, Buenos Aires, and British Columbia. From a young age, he was driven to make money. After learning the brokerage trade at Merrill Lynch, he joined Yorkton Securities and turned it into a mining-finance powerhouse, making a fortune in the process. Then, at 39, he retired. Doing so brought on an urgent and perplexing question: If you're poor, and you focus on making money, and you make lots of it early on, then what? How and where do you find meaning in the rest of your life? Giustra went on to create the biggest independent studio in Hollywood-Lionsgate. It was a gruelling four-year project that almost broke him. Returning to investment finance, he built a small gold company into one of the world's biggest, along the way launching dozens of other resource companies. His recent prediction that the US dollar would weaken and gold would strengthen has made him wealthy all over again. But it was his work in poor countries that opened his eyes to inequality, steered him toward philanthropy, and led him to his life's purpose. He donated over $130 million to Clinton-Giustra initiatives, partnering with former US President Bill Clinton to mitigate AIDS in Africa and alleviate poverty in Latin America. Today, after a controversial break with Clinton, he charts his own philanthropic course with Acceso and the Giustra Foundation. The Money Dilemma recounts Giustra's gradual understanding that the best use of excess wealth is to seek to improve the world that our children will inherit. It's a warts-and-all account of a uniquely fascinating, never-boring life.

The Money Dilemma

WINNER of 75th Nation­al Jew­ish Book Award: Biography 'FIVE STARS ... Magnificent' Telegraph 'Compulsively readable' Financial Times 'Gripping and timely' The Times 'Crackingly told' Philippe Sands 'A kind of masterclass' Sebastian Junger THE NEW BOOK FROM THE BESTSELLING, COSTA PRIZE-WINNING AUTHOR OF THE VOLUNTEER The true story of a Jewish lawyer who returned to Germany after WWII to prosecute war crimes, only to find himself pitted against a nation determined to bury the past. At the end of the Nuremberg trial in 1946, some of the greatest war criminals in history were sentenced to death, but hundreds of thousands of Nazi murderers and collaborators remained at large. The Allies were ready to overlook their pasts as the Cold War began, and the horrors of the Holocaust were in danger of being forgotten. In The Prosecutor, Jack Fairweather brings to life the remarkable story of Fritz Bauer, a gay German Jew who survived the Nazis and made it his mission to force his countrymen to confront their complicity in the genocide. In this deeply researched book, Fairweather draws on unpublished family papers, newly declassified German records, and exclusive interviews to immerse readers in the dark, unfamiliar world of postwar West Germany where those who implemented genocide run the country, the CIA is funding Hitler's former spy-ring in the east, and Nazi-era anti-gay laws are strictly enforced. But once Bauer lands on the trail of Adolf Eichmann, he won't be intimidated. His journey takes him deep into the rotten heart of West Germany, where his fight for justice will set him against his own government and a network of former Nazis and spies determined to silence him. In a time when the history of the Holocaust is taken for granted, The Prosecutor reveals the courtroom battles that were fought to establish its legacy and the personal cost of speaking out. The result is a searing portrait of a nation emerging from the ruins of fascism and one man's courage in forcing his people--and the world--to face the truth.

One Man’s Battle to Bring Nazis to Justice

The Prosecutor

From "the greatest generation" comes the true story of a World War II veteran and ordained minister whose public advocacy for social justice was segmented from his private life as a gay man. Steven C. Law's biography of the Rev. Robert W. Wood, The Story of Bob, is the story of a man before his time, who strove to live and love authentically and advocated for the gay community in church and society.The Rev. Robert W. Wood was a trailblazer in the LGBTQ rights movement. Active in the Mattachine Society, he published his book Christ and the Homosexual in 1960 under his own name at great risk. Rev. Wood participated in protests organized by Frank Kameny against the federal government's ban on gay employees. He pushed the United Church of Christ to embrace the cause of LGBTQ liberation. While he faced resistance, this struggle ultimately led to the formation of the UCC's Open and Affirming Coalition. The Story of Bob is based on interviews that the author, Steven C. Law, conducted with Rev. Wood. Law's lucid prose makes for a compelling, page-turning read.

The Story of Bob

Arriving from high society England to rural South Africa in the turbulent 1960s, Rosemary Smith is out of her depth. But when faced with the startling reality of her new home, Rosemary joins the Black Sash—the white women-led anti-Apartheid organization of which she would one day become national vice president—thrusting her into the interior workings of a country struggling violently towards democracy.
Pulled from her journals charting decades of justice work, this emotional and engrossing memoir is a reexamination of the ally, a rare insight into South Africa’s democratic transition, and the inspiring true story of a community of women who set a new standard for civic responsibility and quietly changed the landscape of an entire nation.

In a career that has seen him face coup leaders in his native Ivory Coast and lead some of the most prestigious Western financial institutions, Tidjane Thiam has blazed a trail through African and European politics and business.In a career that has seen him face coup leaders in his native Ivory Coast and lead some of the most prestigious Western financial institutions, Tidjane Thiam has blazed a trail through African and European politics and business.After a childhood in tumultuous west and north Africa, Thiam broke barriers in the elitist world of French higher education, becoming one of the first black consultants at McKinsey and Company before entering the Ivorian government. After a coup forced him into exile, he joined the world of finance, where his rise saw him named as CEO of Prudential in London and Credit Suisse in Zurich. Along the way, he was trained and supported by many both in the public and private sector who made his many achievements as a leader possible. However, his rise to prominence as the only African, black and Muslim boss of large Western corporations was also accompanied with disproportionate public and media scrutiny, as well as racism and xenophobia.A blend of autobiography, business, politics, and personal philosophy, his book offers a unique vantage point on corporate and political life in Africa, Europe, the United States and Asia. In a story that spans from his father's politically motivated imprisonment to the business principles that took Thiam to the top of global finance, he shares a personal and professional story that is equal parts inspirational and aspirational.

A Memoir

Without Prejudice

The unconventional and inspiring story of a trailblazer's rise to international prominence. Carlos Gutierrez has been an influential figure in business and politics for over 35 years, but his route to global leadership was far from the well-worn path of the Ivy League M.B.A. In fact, he never graduated from college and began his life in America without knowing a word of English. When he was only six years old, his family fled the Cuban revolution with almost nothing, travelling to Miami and ultimately emigrating to Mexico. He began working for Kellogg's selling cereal out of a van, and climbed the ranks until he became the youngest CEO in the company's hundred-year history. He went on to serve as U.S. Secretary of Commerce for the Bush administration, and later held executive roles in nearly a dozen major companies. Despite his humble beginnings and a lifelong struggle with untreated ADHD-he was not diagnosed with the disorder until age 65-he was able to overcome any challenge and reach incredible levels of success. Gutierrez credits his considerable accomplishments to his relentless positivity and drive to be the best at anything he does. Above all, he holds a steadfast belief that any obstacle should be seen as an opportunity. His working-class background gave him more empathy and appreciation for sacrifice than most business leaders possess. ADHD, while significantly debilitating-particularly in a career track that rewards consistency and organizational skills-granted him a formidable talent for problem solving and creative thinking, as well as the ability to take bold action with little regard for the risk involved. Sheer Will is the inspiring story of ambition and courage in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. Packed with entertaining stories and practical advice, Gutierrez relates his complete journey from his ambitious youth to becoming the most unlikely leader in the history of the U.S. Cabinet. This book is a roadmap for anyone who refuses to be inconsequential, and finds themselves travelling an uncommon path in life.

Sheer Will

About Daily Anxieties: A Month in the Life of an Ad Executive Was the phone on the cradle when you started your fusillade of profanity? Why aren't there retirement parties in your industry? Why does your alma mater publicly invest in every academic discipline except yours? These types of questions leap beyond the "Sunday scaries" that fluster people in other lines of work. They are the fodder of endless and indelible ruminations for advertising professionals, and they are the topic of this book. But Daily Anxieties is more than a catalogue of industry quirks -- it's a strangely comforting and witty companion for anyone who has ever survived a pitch week, navigated a client meltdown, or tried (and failed) to leave work at the office. For those already in advertising, these pages offer the warm reassurance that all the odd pressures, sleepless nights, and existential questions aren't personal flaws but shared occupational hazards. There's a certain relief in seeing your private frustrations reflected with honesty, humor, and just enough absurdity to make them feel survivable. For anyone thinking about entering the profession, this memoir doubles as an illuminating caveat. It presents the relentless pace, emotional whiplash, and institutional contradictions that often greet them once they arrive. It's an unvarnished look at what the business really demands, offering newcomers a clearer sense of the psychological terrain before they step onto it. Daily Anxieties is a month-long immersion into the questions, crises, and small victories that define life in advertising -- a mirror for insiders, and a reality check for those wondering whether to join them.

How a little-known executive revolutionized the delivery business James E. Casey was a most improbable revolutionary. Shy and soft-spoken, in his day he was all but unknown to the public at large. Drawing little attention to himself, he laid the foundation of an industry that is fundamental to the modern world economy – the industry that manages businesses' long-distance supply chains and allows consumers to obtain almost anything from anywhere with just a credit card and a couple of days' patience. In The UPS Man, Marc Levinson provides the first-ever biography of the self-taught executive who started a bicycle messenger service in 1907 and built it into a giant of modern logistics. Casey was associated with United Parcel Service for seventy-six years, introducing innovation after innovation into the stodgiest of industries as UPS conquered the retail delivery market, then reshaped itself into the first company able to collect packages from hundreds of thousands of senders and deliver them when promised to recipients far away, and then changed itself yet again to move parcels around the globe. That more than three hundred thousand packages are delivered somewhere in the world every minute of every day is a monument to Casey's accomplishments. While Casey was an inspiring leader, he was also a ferocious competitor and a demanding boss. Under his leadership, UPS frequently acted in ways that it prefers not to include in its corporate mythology. Some of these actions were dubious. Others were flat-out illegal. Certain of them might not make current employees proud yet were indispensable to UPS's emergence as a powerful force in freight transportation. Drawing on previously neglected sources, The UPS Man offers a nuanced portrait of an entrepreneur and executive whose obsession with small parcels still affects our lives today.

The Ups Man

“Nadia is a fierce warrior for justice and a beautiful human being I feel privileged to know. She will inspire women for generations.” —Amal Clooney In a lyrical and profoundly moving memoir, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Nadia Murad reclaims her extraordinary journey from the embers of devastation to a fight for freedom—and for what comes next when a young girl’s flame cannot be extinguished. In 2014, Nadia Murad was living in northern Iraq when her world was shattered. Fighters from the so-called Islamic State attacked her village, massacring hundreds—including her mother and six of her brothers—and forcing her, along with thousands of Yazidi women and girls, into ISIS’s system of sexual slavery. Her life since then has been split in two. In one she is a global symbol of courage —a survivor and activist who has stood before world leaders to demand justice. In the other, she is a woman learning how to be a friend, a student, a wife; a woman rediscovering ordinary joy. In I Choose My Beginning, Nadia brings these two selves together. With honesty and grace, she transforms the pain of her past into a life defined not by what was done to her, but by strength, perseverance, and the freedom to choose happiness. From reshaping international law to building a life filled with friendship and love, Nadia carries the memory of those she lost and those who survived. Their presence reminds her—and all of us—that she has always been more than a victim. Powerful and deeply inspiring, I Choose My Beginning is the story of an extraordinary woman reclaiming her humanity—and showing that survival is not the end of the story. It is the beginning.

A Story of Courage and Activism

I Choose My Beginning

Number 1 bestseller, Finalist for The Peoples Book Prize 2019. From a darkened world, bound by four walls, a young woman called Jessica tells the tale of her battle against the M.E Monster. From beneath her dark glasses, Jessica glimpses a world far different from the one she remembers as a teenage schoolgirl.

A Girl Behind Dark Glasses

Going behind the scenes with a veteran member of the White House press corpsSteven L Herman, chief national correspondent for the nonpartisan, government-funded Voice of America (VOA), weaves together memoir and history to pull back the curtain on the inner workings of the White House press corps, giving readers a rare glimpse into the historic and current relationship between the president and the press.Herman traces the trajectory of his career as a journalist—from learning to be skeptical of government officials’ statements when he worked as a novice reporter covering nuclear testing in Nevada in the 1970s to understanding the power of on-the-ground social media coverage after the Fukushima disaster in 2011 and facing the challenges of covering the Trump administration. He reflects on the experience of reporting on a president who once called journalists “enemies of the people”—and indeed, former president Trump singled out VOA, accusing the organization of being not a voice of America but rather a voice supporting Moscow’s and Beijing’s interests. Under questionable circumstances, top VOA executives lost their security clearances, and a dossier was prepared on Herman in an effort to remove him as White House bureau chief. With journalistic independence under threat, Herman feared not only for his career but also for “the soul of Voice of America.”Throughout Behind the White House Curtain, Herman convincingly argues that public access to accurate, unbiased information is essential to a healthy and peaceful democracy, and that journalists can and should play a key role in pressing government officials to be truthful and transparent. At a time when misinformation is rampant and the need for unbiased coverage of current events is more urgent than ever, Herman reminds readers that freedom of the press is a foundational American right.
