Mitchell Kaplan, a Miami Beach native, founded Books & Books in 1982. Located in Coral Gables, Florida, Books & Books expanded to its present location in December of 2000. Housed in a Mediterranean-styled building, the bookstore hosts over sixty events a month, consisting of author readings and signings, demonstrations and workshops, live music, reading and discussion groups, programming for children and families, and a variety of other community-based events. All of this is achieved in an old world setting of floor-to-ceiling wood bookshelves, wood floors, and a courtyard café, managed by James Beard-award winning Chef Allen Susser. In April 2005, Books & Books opened a new location inside the Bal Harbour Shops Mall, specializing in high end art and design books and continues the tradition of the Coral Gables and Miami Beach bookstores with a full schedule of author events and programs.

Robert David Kaplan (born June 23, 1952) is an American author. His books are on politics, primarily foreign affairs, and travel. His work over three decades has appeared in The Atlantic, The Washington Post, The New York Times, The New Republic, The National Interest, Foreign Affairs and The Wall Street Journal, among other newspapers and publications. Kaplan is a stated admirer of the work of John Mearsheimer, a University of Chicago-based Realist political scientist whom Kaplan's books occasionally cite. Moreover, Kaplan's predictions in The Coming Anarchy dovetail in part with Mearsheimer's predictions for the future of Post-Cold War Europe. Kaplan's stance on Mearsheimer's work is addressed in an essay in The Atlantic, titled "Why John J. Mearsheimer is right (about some things)".[19] The essay was written largely in response to Mearsheimer's stance in his controversial 2007 book The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy, which was negatively received and described as an anti-Israel polemic by several reviewers. In the same essay, Kaplan defends the theory of offensive realism advocated by John Mearsheimer from claims that it necessarily advocates hawkish or neoconservative foreign policy. Late academic geographer Harm de Blij has criticized Kaplan's book The Revenge of Geography for tending toward what de Blij interprets as environmental determinism.[24] He also argues that the book lacks acknowledgment of thinkers associated with postmodern schools of geographic thought, such as critical geopolitics. Finally, he describes Kaplan's book The Revenge of Geography as one of several "misleading" books on geography by non-formally trained geographers, and as such misrepresents the field to those unfamiliar (other examples that de Blij alludes to include Thomas Friedman's The World Is Flat and Jared Diamond's Guns, Germs, and Steel).[25] Help young children develop a close and enjoyable relationship with books, a vital step towards literacy. Kaplan offers a wide selection of children's books including factual books, fantasy books, and books about people of different races, cultures, ages, and abilities. Find board books, big books, cloth and vinyl books, and chapter books to build your classroom library as well as book and puppet sets to entertain and bring stories to life.

Kaplan completed his schooling from the Stuyvesant High School and then enrolled at the Brooklyn College. Immediately after his graduation, author Kaplan joined the United States Army and served for a short period of time. After his completion of his service period, Kaplan moved to Africa and Europe. There, he worked as war correspondent and freelance journalist. At the time of the Six Day War in 1967, author Kaplan was working for the Israeli Army. He was also engaged in student activities in Israel after getting elected to the post of student leader. Kaplan assisted in starting the Ben Gurion Negev University, which was initially called as the University of Negev. He also helped in laying the foundation of the Israeli fencing team for the Olympics. Author Kaplan graduated from the University of Tel Aviv in 1970.

His books have sold millions of copies throughout the world and have been translated into as many as 22 foreign languages in various countries across the globe. Kaplan has authored or co-authored 14 books and more than 200 papers, including three dozen in Harvard Business Review. He has co-authored five books with David P. Norton: The Execution Premium: Linking Strategy to Operations for Competitive Advantage; Alignment; Strategy Maps (named as one of the top ten business books of 2004 by Strategy & Business and amazon.com);, The Strategy-Focused Organization (named by Cap Gemini Ernst & Young as the best international business book for year 2000); and The Balanced Scorecard: Translating Strategy into Action, which has been translated into 24 languages and won the 2001 Wildman Medal from the American Accounting Association (AAA) for its impact on practice. He also co-authored Time-Driven Activity-Based Costing with Steve Anderson; Cost and Effect with Robin Cooper; and Relevance Lost: The Rise and Fall of Management Accounting, with H. Thomas Johnson, which received the AAA Seminal Contributions to Literature Award in 2007. Following the Blueprint and Next Step merger, these prep books also underwent a complete revision and closely track and serve as an excellent compliment to the learning modules. The prep books are well written and provide substantive reviews of the primary MCAT subjects, are excellent at breaking down and clearly explaining complex processes and biological systems, and contain relevant and helpful end of chapter practice problems and strategies. Although typically I prefer visual learning techniques, I personally found the subject specific prep books to be nicely structured with a natural flow that expertly blended and expanded upon many of the subtleties of the video lessons. 0aad45d008
