The basis for the NBC event series directed by Lisa Cholodenko and starring Uma Thurman, Peter Sarsgaard, and Zachary Quinto. In this powerful and riveting novel reminiscent of Liane Moriarty's Truly, Madly, Guilty, literary phenomenon Christos Tsiolkas unflinchingly exposes the inner workings of domestic life, friendship, and parenthood in the twenty-first century, and reminds us of the passions and malice that family loyalty can provoke. When a man slaps another couple’s child at a neighborhood barbecue, the event send unforeseeable shock waves through the lives of all who are witness to it. Told from the points of view of eight people who were present, The Slap shows how a single action can change the way people think about how they live, what they want, and what they believe forever.

Insults are part of the fabric of daily life. But why do we insult each other? Why do insults cause us such pain? Can we do anything to prevent or lessen this pain? Most importantly, how can we overcome our inclination to insult others? In A Slap in the Face, William Irvine undertakes a wide-ranging investigation of insults, their history, the role they play in social relationships, and the science behind them. He examines not just memorable zingers, such as Elizabeth Bowen's description of Aldous Huxley as "The stupid person's idea of a clever person," but subtle insults as well, such as when someone insults us by reporting the insulting things others have said about us: "I never read bad reviews about myself," wrote entertainer Oscar Levant, "because my best friends invariably tell me about them." Irvine also considers the role insults play in our society: they can be used to cement relations, as when a woman playfully teases her husband, or to enforce a social hierarchy, as when a boss publicly berates an employee. He goes on to investigate the many ways society has tried to deal with insults-by adopting codes of politeness, for example, and outlawing hate speech-but concludes that the best way to deal with insults is to immunize ourselves against them: We need to transform ourselves in the manner recommended by Stoic philosophers. We should, more precisely, become insult pacifists, trying hard not to insult others and laughing off their attempts to insult us. A rousing follow-up to A Guide to the Good Life, A Slap in the Face will interest anyone who's ever delivered an insult or felt the sting of one--in other words, everyone.

"Thus, the whole world, today, is acknowledging Asians' success, born out of Disciplined Parenting and Culture of rigorous hard-work. The question is- Are we blunting this edge, that our children have - with ... overt pampering? This is what this book is all about? - About making you a parent ! Because the point is - what is your claim to be the parent of the child? - Donating a sperm or an egg to form the embryo. What is so great about it? Even a syringe today can fertilize the egg (in a test tube baby). Then will the syringe & incubator lay claim to be the parent of the child? I know, I sound ludicrous but then so is the suggestion that one becomes a parent just by siring the baby. Remember, great products are forged in great crucibles. So to forge a successful child, we have to cast the mold i.e. you the parent. So, get ready to face this furnace of a book. BEWARE THIS BOOK IS NOT MEANT FOR THE FAINT HEARTED. It is only for the concerned parent, who has what it takes to forge the personality and success of their child. For others there is always fate. - Author
