Greer Childers, age 53 and mother of three, credits her BodyFlex method with dropping her from a size 14/16 to a size 4/6 in 90 days. Childers had tried jogging, aerobics, and personal trainers; she got firmer but no smaller, and felt tired all the time. "In terms of being a couch potato, I was definitely mashed," she writes. Then she discovered what she calls "aerobic breathing" and claims she started burning off inches. Fitness and weight-loss experts would argue that aerobic exercise--not just breathing--is what burns fat, but Childers insists the method has worked for her and her clients.

Be a Loser presents Childers's own story about trying to lose weight and her theory about weight loss--that oxygen is "the non-medical miracle" and that learning how to breathe "aerobically" is her secret for weight loss. She teaches her breathing technique and a series of simple stretches and nonstrenuous calisthenic exercises that she claims "tone muscle." .

In 1934 Theodore Abel went to Germany and offered a prize, under the auspices of Columbia University, for autobiographies of members of the National Socialist movement. The six hundred essays he received constitute the single best source on grassroots opinion within the Nazi Party, and they form the empirical foundation for Abel's fascinating yet curiously neglected 1938 book. Although a number of scholars have drawn on these reports, Abel's own treatment has never been surpassed. Of particular value is his presentation of the life histories of a worker, a soldier, an anti-Semite, a middle-class youth, a farmer, and a bank clerk, all of whom explain in their own words why they joined the NSDAP. In the vast literature on National Socialism, no more useful or revealing testimony exists.

In a new Foreword, Thomas Childers discusses how the past half-century of research and writing on Nazi Germany has uphold Abel's original insights into the broad appeal of the National Socialist movement, thereby reaffirming this work's enduring value for students of the topic.

What does "divine intervention" mean to you? Authors Dan Millman and Doug Childers define it as "a form of extraordinary guidance, revelation, or grace that transforms human lives by leading to a higher path, courageous choice, inspired creation, or call to service in the world." Millman, a world-class athlete and author of the bestselling Way of the Peaceful Warrior, was first touched by the divine in an unlikely way--a serious collision with a white Cadillac. The accident disrupted his athletic career and during his recovery he began to question his life's purpose, leading him to understand his athletic accomplishments as preparation for another path of "teaching, writing, and service." Doug Childers had an extraordinary experience with the power of love in the face of an attack by two thugs, one armed with a steel pipe.

In Divine Interventions: True Stories of Mysteries and Miracles That Change Lives, the authors have collected stories detailing disparate encounters with the divine, from the story of how a camel herder named Muhammad became a prophet, to the birth of mysticism in the writings of Carl Jung and Walt Whitman, to Bill Wilson's journey through alcoholism and the beginnings of Alcoholics Anonymous. The stories are short and easily readable, and while Millman and Childers are careful to address issues of historical accuracy, they are not out to prove anything, letting the stories speak for themselves. There are a variety of truths in this collection of miracle and mystery, bound together by the power of the divine to change ordinary lives into extraordinary ones. --Jodie Buller.
