Paul and Michele are on the verge of their third date--and quite possibly their first love-making experience together as a couple. Of course they can play it by ear and see if they like the tune. Or, as Paul wants, they can meet for coffee to talk about what lies immediately ahead and in bed, even at the risk of embarrassment, sweaty palms, and nervous laughter. This novella is unlike anything you have read. It is not a scientific study of romance nor a plea for any specific social agenda. Instead, we sit down (invisibly) with Paul and Michele for an hour or two at Starbucks and listen to them deal with some of life's most urgent, perplexing, awkward, and often funny moments. Go along for the ride. You will never forget or regret it.

Students go through an educational factory that's been maximized for productivity and quality assurance, but miss out on addressing what they bring to themselves and others. The 12 DIMENSIONS OF A SERVICE LEADER helps anyone looking to succeed in the 'Service Age.' There much for faculty and students to be learned from this book and by going through the reflective exercises."
