Great review for James W. Pennebaker's The Secret Life of Pronouns:
“Penetrating…lively and accessible…Paying closer attention to function words [Pennebaker] advises, can help us understand the social relations that those words reflect. Unfortunately, we might not be able to pay proper attention until we’re all equipped with automatic word counters. Until that day, we have Pennebaker as an indefatigable guide to the little words that he boldly calls ‘keys to the soul.’”— New York Times Book Review

Paul Gilding, author of The Great Disruption, is featured in an interview with Tom Ashbrook on NPR's On Point. Additionally, Thomas Friedman's opinion column in the New York Times, the chilling "The Earth Is Full", spotlights Paul's new book.

Bestselling author Brian Fagan's Elixir is included the Los Angeles Times' and the Chicago Tribune’s Summer Reading roundups.
