New Books in Our eBay Store: From Helen Thomas, Neil Sheehan, Taylor Branch, & More

0 comments
If you haven't checked out The Commonwealth Club's online store, now might be a good time. We've just added more books, including the one everybody in Washington's talking about: Taylor Branch's The Clinton Tapes: Wrestling History with the President.

Other recent additions include Rosabeth Moss Kanter's SuperCorp: How Vanguard Companies Create Innovation, Profits, Growth, and Social Good, Helen Thomas' Listen Up, Mr. President; Everything You Always Wanted Your President to Know and Do, and Neil Sheehan's A Fiery Peace in a Cold War: Bernard Schriever and the Ultimate Weapon.

All four of those authors are upcoming Commonwealth Club speakers (see our schedule online). They and other upcoming speakers have books that can be ordered on our online eBay store; if you order more than five business days before the event, the book will be sent to your address; if you order fewer than five days before the event, the book will be waiting for you at The Commonwealth Club on the day of the event.

But that's not all. We also have books from recent past speakers, including David Wessel's In Fed We Trust, Firoozeh Dumas' Laughing Without an Accent, Reza Aslan's How to Win a Cosmic War, Chris Anderson's Free, and many others.

For the complete catalog of available books, visit our store.

Staceys: Our Neighborhood Shrinks a Little

0 comments
It is with great sadness that we learned of the impending close of Stacey's Bookstore, the multi-storey book shop right next to our building on San Francisco's Market Street. Stacey's is not only a great place to browse and buy a wide selection of books and magazines; it's also home to a wonderful staff, some of whom Commonwealth Club members have met when they come to Club events and find a little table with the speaker's books for sale.
