While there are far more women in public office today than in previous eras, women are still vastly underrepresented in this area relative to men. Conventional wisdom suggests that a key reason is because female candidates start out at a disadvantage with the public, compared to male candidates, and then face higher standards for their behavior and qualifications as they campaign. He Runs, She Runs is the first comprehensive study of these dynamics and demonstrates that the conventional wisdom is wrong. With rich contextual background and a wealth of findings, Deborah Jordan Brooks examines whether various behaviors--such as crying, acting tough, displays of anger, or knowledge gaffes--by male and female political candidates are regarded differently by the public. Refuting the idea of double standards in campaigns, Brooks's overall analysis indicates that female candidates do not get penalized disproportionately for various behaviors, nor do they face any double bind regarding femininity and toughness. Brooks also reveals that before campaigning begins, women do not start out at a disadvantage due to gender stereotypes. In fact, Brooks shows that people only make gendered assumptions about candidates who are new to politics, and those stereotypes benefit, rather than hurt, women candidates. Proving that it is no more challenging for female political candidates today to win over the public than it is for their male counterparts, He Runs, She Runs makes clear that we need to look beyond public attitudes to understand why more women are not in office.

It started like most of Marian’s troubles, because of her betting the ponies - that consuming habit which she herself could hardly understand. Someone told her once that she wanted to lose. But Marian knew that was nonsense. She wanted to win, win, win! This time when Marian lost, she became desperate. Her husband, Warren Emrick, refused to give her the money - even though he had $48,000 stashed away. So when Tony Viani, an ex-playmate, turned up offering to pay her debt, Marian was in the mood to betray her husband. In a gesture of spite she took Warren’s money and ran off with Tony. Only Marian didn’t figure on Warren’s need for revenge or Tony’s lust for power. And that’s when her trouble really started . . .troubles that filled her days and nights with violence and terror.

Running Shoes Are a Girl's Best Friend tells the stories of 53 women who run. They share their reasons, motivation and tips, as do two top coaches. Motivation is everything. There are so many reasons to run. Coach Pat Carroll, one of Australia's top distance runners ever: “It is really important to enjoy the journey rather than feel like it is something you have to do.” Motivation evolves. Goals change. Many people start running without the plan to become a runner. Many begin with the goal to lose weight and / or gain fitness. You don't need to compete. Says Carroll, “The great thing about running is that everyone can have their own goals and everyone can walk away feeling incredible, whether it be in training or in competition.” Running, though it may not be easy at first, makes you feel good. And, surprisingly, fitness improves very quickly. This book tells the stories of 53 women. Some have been running for decades, others began more recently. Some run for the simple pleasure it brings, while others race for finish lines. Women featured in Running Shoes Are a Girl's Best Friend include: Rhonda LeBrocque: “People think it is too hard, but until you start you don't realize that it isn't that difficult and you don't have to be fast to be a runner.'' Suzie Oswald: “More people would run if they took the time to take it easy first.” Helen Bruce: “It is all about getting into a routine that you can maintain for the rest of your life.” Shelley Kirkwood: “Exercise has to be a lifestyle. It has to be woven into everyday life so that it becomes one of the things you just do.” Susan Trodd: “At 54, I decided that I was not going to let preconceptions of age stop me and to return to the interests of my youth—one being running.” Anne-Maree Jaggs began running in her 40s to improve her health and shed weight. “Running has been a turning point in my life. I'm chuffed with myself for making this healthy activity part of my life.” Shelley Maxwell-Smith: “I wanted to be one of those fit-looking girls.'' Diane Soffe: “I realized there were two options left to me; I could continue to get old or I could do something about it.” Katrina Crook: “Races gave me the motivation to keep running. I kept every certificate, timing list and T-shirt from the first few years.” Lisa Hurring's leg was shattered in a 2006 accident. “A desire to run drove my rehab. When I first tried running again five months after the crash, the best I could do was to lurch along for five limping steps with teeth tightly clenched.” In 2009, Lisa ran a 3:35 marathon. Eileen Varty was a runner before a hip replacement in 2007 - she wasn't sure if she'd ever run again. In 2009, Eileen did the Melbourne marathon in 4:39. Elizabeth Adams: “I rarely have a sick day. My heart rate is lower, my weight is good and I've increased my strength. I'm near menopause and conscious of staying fit and keeping my weight in check.” Susan Trodd: “Because running stirs up the endorphins and helps keep you fit and trim, it makes you more positive all around.” Karey Corrie: “Running gives me confidence to be true to myself and reminds me to push my own limits regularly, both on the road and in life in general.” Anne Marie Halton: “I have more energy, am more motivated to take risks, I feel like I can do whatever I set my sights on given the right preparation.'' Elizabeth Adams did her first marathon at 47, two years after she started running: “Doing a marathon was never a consideration — until two years ago.” Tina Fiegel ran 105km in 24 hours at 57. She began running in her 40s: “I was inspired by Jane Fonda's book in which she talks about her quest to run a mile. I thought I'd like to be able to run 1km.'' Vicky Baxter-Wright: “A good run can also just be about the conversation we have as we run. Sometimes I've had to stop because I was laughing so much.”

In 1975, Robert “Raven” Kraft made a New Year’s Resolution to run eight miles on Miami’s South Beach each evening. Over 125,000 miles and seven hurricanes later, he has not missed one sunset—and he has changed the lives of thousands who have run with him. From all fifty states and over 85 countries, across all age groups and backgrounds, people come to run with Raven. In the process they find friendship, inspiration—and a nickname. Among them is author Laura Lee “White Lightning” Huttenbach, who has logged over a thousand miles of Raven Runs. Here she explores the stories of dozens of others about why they started running with Raven—and why they keep coming back. Raven is a legend of the running world, and his story is an invaluable reminder that the journey means little without the connections forged along the way. “Raven left an indelible impression upon me, as he has countless others. Raven, long may you run.” —Dean Karnazes, New York Times bestselling author of Ultramarathon Man “An inspiring tale of unbreakable discipline and one-of-a-kind endurance.” —Gerald Posner, New York Times bestselling author of Miami Babylon “Raven’s tale of perseverance, understanding, and courage will inspire anyone.” —Publishers Weekly

The growing ideological gulf between Democrats and Republicans is one of the biggest issues in American politics today. Our legislatures, composed of members from two sharply disagreeing parties, are struggling to function as the founders intended them to. If we want to reduce the ideological gulf in our legislatures, we must first understand what has caused it to widen so much over the past forty years. Andrew B. Hall argues that we have missed one of the most important reasons for this ideological gulf: the increasing reluctance of moderate citizens to run for office. While political scientists, journalists, and pundits have largely focused on voters, worried that they may be too partisan, too uninformed to vote for moderate candidates, or simply too extreme in their own political views, Hall argues that our political system discourages moderate candidates from seeking office in the first place. Running for office has rarely been harder than it is in America today, and the costs dissuade moderates more than extremists. Candidates have to wage ceaseless campaigns, dialing for dollars for most of their waking hours while enduring relentless news and social media coverage. When moderate candidates are unwilling to run, voters do not even have the opportunity to send them to office. To understand what is wrong with our legislatures, then, we need to ask ourselves the question: who wants to run? If we want more moderate legislators, we need to make them a better job offer.
