In this personal development guide, Joe Kelly leads readers on an 8-week adventure to discover the principles of Values, Passion, Skills, and Service—and how to apply them for maximum impact in the world and in one’s own life. What if you could be the change you want to see in the world and have the time of your life doing it? It’s time to shelve the outdated concept that a life of purpose and impact must be one devoid of adventure and fun. Welcome to The Gandhiana Jones Project. Author and professor Joe Kelly leads readers on an 8-week adventure to discover the four core principles to living a life of change—Values, Passion, Skills, and Service—and how to apply them for maximum impact in the world and in one’s own life. With material adapted from Kelly’s change-makers university course, and his personal year-long experiment with “being the change,” The Gandhiana Jones Project is packed full of everything you’ll need for the journey, including lessons on self-growth and community development, research findings, and real-life accounts of individuals who have all found their own unique way to combine duty and delight (and earn a dollar) while making a difference. You’ll also find practical exercises and weekly challenges to ensure you won’t just be reading about how to create change, you’ll learn exactly how to unleash your true potential and leave your mark on the world—and have fun doing it. So, grab your prayer beads and your bullwhip. This is going to be one heck of a trip.

A Damn Near Perfect Game

release date: Mar 14, 2023
A Damn Near Perfect Game
Baseball's most outspoken fireballer brings the high heat in a book that calls out the hacks, cheats, ridiculous rules, and more that have tarnished the game--from the field of play to the clubhouse, front office, broadcast booth, and beyond--and serves up A-plus stuff on how to make baseball pure, fun, and damn near perfect. Baseball has an image problem, the chorus of nonbelievers gets louder every year, and the Major Leagues have made an art of tuning them out. It wasn't always this way, and it doesn't have to be anymore. Enter Joe Kelly: a walking, talking, fastball-throwing embodiment of why baseball matters and why we should love it. He's got some things to say about what's gone wrong with baseball, what makes it great, and what needs to happen to make it damn near f*cking perfect. A Damn Near Perfect Game is the loudest insider's exposé of the laws and culture of Major League Baseball since Jim Bouton's classic Ball Four. From his perspective as a two-time World Series Champion, baseball's most meme-able player according to ESPN, Big League firebrand, and current pitcher for the Chicago White Sox, Kelly takes readers on a house-cleaning tour of the clubhouse, the field of play, the bullpen, the front office, the commissioner's office, and a ballplayer's restricted life off-the-field. Kelly goes off on rule changes that matter and sticking to them (pitch clocks, no outrageous defensive shifts, no designated hitter, and more); baseball hacks (overused analytics, sign-stealing, and more); the promotion of baseball to a new generation of fans (letting players get edgy on social media, merchandising in truly trend-setting ways, and more); encouraging actual emotion (let the players fight, let them bat-flip, let them talk sh*t); and fixing all that's wrong with the front office and the Commissioner's Office. And to show what happens when baseball has some piss and vinegar, he gives the inside scoop on his legendary exploits--starting a bench-clearing brawl with the Yankees' Tyler Austin, his famous "pouty face" scene when calling out the notorious sign-stealing Houston Astros, and wearing a Mariachi jacket to the White House visit with his World Series Champion Los Angeles Dodgers.

The man called Ajax is cleaning house, and he wants Deadpool’s stain scrubbed from the planet. But what’s his connection to Wade’s untold origin? Meanwhile, the world is on the brink of cosmic oblivion — and as far as Landau, Luckman & Lake are concerned, only one man can avert disaster: Deadpool is destined to be the savior of Earth! Really?!
