For the author, a young Missouri lad of eighteen and newly graduated from high school, the reality of war loomed against his young innocents. Hollywood romanticized war; however, soon Joseph E. Bloomer would witness the truth. Surreal terrors, played out against a backdrop of the exotic beauty of the Pacific Islands, were nothing like the ones portrayed in the movies.

Subsequently, he began a career as a test driver for mechanical engineering at Boeing, then later pursued a career i...

Choosing a partner is one of the most consequential and tricky decisions we will ever make. The cost of repeated failure is immense. And yet we are often so alone with the search. Partners used to be found for us by parents and society. Now we are expected to follow our feelings - and so locate people by ourselves, according to intuition.

The book provides a crucial set of ideas to help us make safer, more imaginative and more effective choices in love. Product details Format Hardback | 80 pages ...
