University Book & Supply to Host Author Robert James Waller
Friday, May 4 2:00 - 3:00 PM
Cedar Falls, IA, April 23, 2012 - University Book & Supply will host world-renowned author Robert James Waller as he presents and holds a book signing for his recently released, "The Summer Nights Never End...Until They Do." This 12th book by Waller is not about covered bridges. Instead, it delivers on his profound, academically-based understanding of pursuing goals and ideas from a mindset of logic and reason.
This is the first published work to deliver on Waller's many years of innovative, intellectual pursuit on the way the human mind can use logic and reason, and how these can be taught in academia, says Traders Press President Karris Golden. "Our trader and investor audience has responded resoundingly to the kind of movement of ideas and culture that Robert James Waller has had great success in developing from his sophisticated, international corporate consulting life," she reports. Waller has a great deal more research and work on the subject that business leaders are anxious to tap, she says.
Among Waller's non-academic publications is the bestselling novel, "The Bridges of Madison County", with over 12 million copies in print in more than 40 languages (plus it's a major film and has been presented as a theatrical production in several countries, including a long-running production in Japan, a recent successful run in Paris, and forthcoming productions in other countries). Waller has six other novels published, five additional books on various topics, and has completed a photography-poetry book. The novel "Puerto Vallarta Squeeze" was made into a motion picture starring Harvey Keitel and Scott Glenn and is available on DVD. Altogether, his books have sold approximately 17 million copies.
"The Summer Nights Never End ... Until They Do:
Life, Liberty, and the Lure of the Short-Run"
On a perfect summer night when the breeze wind is warm, fireflies are blinking and all seems just right, you might be lulled into the belief that everything is easy. Get real! Ease, comfort and good times don't just happen. Success requires sound judgment, hard work and the willingness to forego immediate gratification. In his new book, Robert James Waller covers topics that will help you improve your trading and investing-as well as all areas of your life: love and money; choices and consequences; vicious circles and social traps; getting into-and out of-trouble.
