Steven Tyler

Nendes otsekohestes ja ohjeldamatutes memuaarides vaatab rokilegend ja Aerosmithi käilakuju Steven Tyler tagasi oma elule: noorusele Bronxis, varastele muusikalistele mõjutustele, laulude loomisele, kuulsale partnerlusele kitarristi Joe Perryga ja Aerosmithi kümnendite pikkusele meeletule edule. Midagi varjamata või kahetsemata kõneleb ta ka enda narkosõltuvusest, suhetest oma naiste ja nelja lapse, sealhulgas näitlejanna Liv Tyleriga, ning metsikust elust tuuridel. Raamatu kaasautor David Dalton on ajakirja Rolling Stone kauaaegne kaastööline, kes on kirjutanud muusikutest hulga menukaid biograafiaid.

Conquer substance abuse and addiction with this proven plan from the former physician director of professional and residential programs at the Betty Ford Center, now revised and expanded Foreword by Steven Tyler The disease of addiction affects 1 out of 10 people in the United States and is a devastating and often fatal illness. Dr. Harry Haroutunian--or Dr. Harry as he is affectionately known by his patients--offers a step-by-step plan with a realistic, one-day-at-a-time approach to a disease that so often seems insurmountable. With a focus on reclaiming the power that comes from a life free from dependency, Being Sober guides you through the many phases of addiction and recovery with a warm sense of humor and compassion, not judgment or overly "cultish" language. This revised edition shares a new chapter on emotional sobriety and advanced recovery topics, along with more information on the opioid crisis and prescription drug abuse in the United States. This groundbreaking book also addresses the growing face of substance abuse: the high-functioning addict, or someone who is still able to achieve personal and professional success even as he or she battles a drug or alcohol problem. Dr. Harry tackles this provocative issue head-on, offering new insight into why you don't have to "bottom out" to get help. He is a recovering alcoholic himself and knows firsthand the challenges of sobriety. His background and expertise in the field of alcohol and drug treatment give him a powerful edge and perspective that is unparalleled. Using clear, straightforward language, Being Sober offers a proven path toward emotional sobriety and a rewarding new life based on gratitude, dignity, and self-respect.

This is a book of personal refection on my life as a thoughtful Mormon, often riding the edge of the herd, but remaining engaged and faithful throughout. More than anything, this is a book of stories - all true to the extent that my memory is accurate. Having grown up in Provo, Utah, the heart of Mormon culture, in the 1950's and 60's, my childhood was both free and cloistered. My university level education was mostly secular at the University of Utah and I moved away from the centers of Zion after graduation. Experiences in the broader world have challenged much of the doctrines and practices of my upbringing while reinforcing many of the important practiced and perspectives of my faith. I hope the book explores the push-pull of attempting to keep one's moral groundings while learning and respecting the lessons of the wider cultures. My life has been full of wonderful adventures - many of the stories are nothing more than the pleasure of sharing and retelling those adventures

Life was so simple for Luna Susan George on Monday. Her older brother, Sam, was away on his honeymoon, and as his only employee of "Leslie S. George, Private Investigations," Susan had the office to herself. Yes, Monday was so simple, but then came Tuesday, and that "One Little Lie." Tuesday made Susan's life complicated when a perky twenty-something young woman wearing a pink baseball cap, with an appointment for a dental cleaning down the hall, stumbled into the office to seek a private investigator to find the missing cat of her multi-millionaire employer. What comes next are twelve days discovering millions of dollars worth of stolen art, an assortment of oddball characters, and the involvement of the entire Los Angeles Art Fraud Unit. Steven Tyler is the author of a dozen screenplays for the movie industry which are in various stages of production. "One Little Lie" is his second novel. He is hard at work on the third. His third tale is the story of a ghostwriter who meets a real ghost.

The long-awaited, never-before-told, no-holds-barred memoir from the legendary Aerosmith frontman. Finally, all the lurid tales of debauchery, sex, drugs and rock n' roll are told straight from the horse's lips as The Demon of Screamin' describes his unimaginable highs and unbelievable lows as lead singer of the biggest rock band in the world.

"Steven Tyler is one of the giants of American music, who's been influential for a whole generation of Rock 'n' Roll fans around the world. Long May He Rock "--Sir Paul McCartneyDoes the Noise in My Head Bother You? is the rock memoir to end all rock memoirs -- the straight-up, no-holds-barred story of Grammy Award-winning, Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame inductee, and all around superstar legend Steven Tyler, lead singer of Aerosmith (and celebrity judge on American Idol). The rock and roll epic that is Tyler's life begins with Tyler's youth in the Bronx, tracing his early music career and influences, his legendary partnership with Joe Perry, the meteoric rise, fall, and rise of Aerosmith over the last three decades, their music, Tyler's battles with substance abuse, his epic romantic life, his relationship with his four children (including actress Liv Tyler), life on the road and in the spotlight, the economics of the rock star business --and all the sex, drugs, and rock and roll that anyone could ask for. In Tyler's own words: "I've been mythicized, Mick-icized, eulogized and fooligized, I've been Cole-Portered and farmer's-daughtered, I've been Led Zepped and 12-stepped. I'm a rhyming fool and so cool that me, Fritz the Cat, and Mohair Sam are the baddest cats that am. I have so many outrageous stories, too many, and I'm gonna tell 'em all. All the unexpurgated, brain-jangling tales of debauchery, sex & drugs, transcendence & chemical dependence you will ever want to hear. And this is not just my take, this is the unbridled truth, the in-your-face, up-close and prodigious tale of Steven Tyler straight from the horse's lips."
