These desert dwellers-which often weigh several tons and can live up to 200 years-are brought to life in the wonderful, wacky world of Sassy Saguaros. Get ready to laugh out loud and see how "human" this giant cactus can be!
Michael Roy listened carefully to and learned from the interesting people who live on, work near, and pass through the vibrant human street milieu that is part of the fifth largest city in the United States. Each story is based on conversations arising from the life events, views, fears, hopes, and dreams of people whom many of us do not notice as we pass by. The stories became more deep and nuanced as these women and men continued their conversations with the author over several days. One woman held a hand-lettered sign with these words: "Homeless, Broke, Need Food and a Place to Stay. A Veteran." She described how she loved how Eugene Ormandy conducted the Philadelphia Orchestra when it played at The Academy of Music. And she felt close to his wife, Margaret, and visited their graves. You will be in touch with people walking many paths in "Philadelphia Voices: Smart, Sassy, and Solemn".

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A fascinating look at how consumers perceive logos, ads, commercials, brands, and products.”—Time How much do we know about why we buy? What truly influences our decisions in today’s message-cluttered world? In Buyology, Martin Lindstrom presents the astonishing findings from his groundbreaking three-year, seven-million-dollar neuromarketing study—a cutting-edge experiment that peered inside the brains of 2,000 volunteers from all around the world as they encountered various ads, logos, commercials, brands, and products. His startling results shatter much of what we have long believed about what captures our interest—and drives us to buy. Among the questions he explores: • Does sex actually sell? • Does subliminal advertising still surround us? • Can “cool” brands trigger our mating instincts? • Can our other senses—smell, touch, and sound—be aroused when we see a product? Buyology is a fascinating and shocking journey into the mind of today's consumer that will captivate anyone who's been seduced—or turned off—by marketers' relentless attempts to win our loyalty, our money, and our minds.
