Jeanette Winterson's first novel, Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit, was published.

It was a story of survival. This book is that story's the silent twin. It is full of hurt and humour and a fierce love of life.

Millar highlights the "best" graveyards in each province, the most popular epitaphs, the most original gravemarkers, the most carefully guarded grave, the most poetic graveyard in the country, and much more. With more than ninety photographs, the book also provides interesting observations on graveyard architecture, Indian burial customs, and the variations in epitaphs among religions, genders, races, and provinces.

Prison Law: Text and Materials, Stephen Livingstone, Tim Owen , 1993, 019876264X, 9780198762645. The law governing the administration of prisons and prisoners' rights is not separate from the mainstream of English law. It consists of a body of rules and regulations drawn from other recognized legal categories including constitutional, civil liberties, and administrative law. Because this area of law has not been well defined, work in this domain has been complicated and plagued with problems of access to materials and the full process of the law. Prison Law analyzes the relevant law and conveniently brings together the essential legal texts in this emerging field of law, providing an important reference for students and practitioners.

Managerial Accounting, Linda Smith Bamber, Karen Wilken Braun, Walter T. Harrison , 2006, 0132284634,
9780132284639. The Bamber System of instruction replicates the classroom experience by providing more "I get it" moments outside of class. For Introductory, Undergraduate Managerial accounting course We've talked to tons of
Managerial Accounting instructors and our editors have even taken the Managerial accounting course (numerous times!) to figure out the following issue in this course that is consistent: Students understand (or "Get It") right after you do a problem in class, but as soon as they leave class, with each passing hour, their ability to do the problems again and complete their homework diminishes to the point of them either having to come to office hours to get help, or they just quit and get behind in the course. On top of this, you can end up getting behind in the course, as well, in order to keep everyone on track. The Bamber system helps to recreate the "I Get It" moments outside of class keeping you and the students on track.

Integrating Women into the Astronaut Corps: Politics and Logistics at NASA, 19722004, Amy E. Foster , 2011,
1421403943, 9781421403946. Why, Amy E. Foster asks, did it take two decades after the Soviet Union launched its first female cosmonaut for the United States to send its first female astronaut into space? In answering this question, Foster recounts the complicated history of integrating women into NASAs astronaut corps. NASA selected its first six female astronauts in 1978. Foster examines the political, technological, and cultural challenges that the agency had to overcome to usher in this new era in spaceflight. She shows how NASA had long developed progressive hiring policies but was limited in executing them by a national agenda to beat the Soviets to the moon, budget constraints, and cultural ideas about womens roles in America. Lively writing and compelling stories, including personal interviews with Americas first women astronauts, propel Fosters account. Through extensive archival research, Foster also examines NASAs directives about sexual discrimination, the technological issues in integrating women into the corps, and the popular medias discussion of women in space. Foster puts together a truly original study of the experiences not only of early women astronauts but also of the managers and engineers who helped launch them into space.In documenting these events,
Foster offers a broader understanding of the difficulties in sexually integrating any workplace, even when the organization approaches the situation with as positive an outlook and as strong a motivation as did NASA.

Secret Teddy Society: Breaking the Code, J. S. Gilmore , 2012, 0984877274, 9780984877270. BOOK DESCRIPTION:
Teddies don t have claws - at least not real ones. That s what Waldo was thinking as he watched his best friend turn into a Were-bear by the moonlight. Waldo had no idea that a string of events would unwind all because he and Bobby Bear were caught going after the milk in the fridge by James, a stay-at-home dad trying to write his first book. Nothing happens in the teddy world that the Council doesn t find out about because of the Teddy Network; and "no moving in front of a human" is the first rule of the Teddy Code. It s only a matter of time before a punishment is determined for the two bears - but what and when? Sometimes the waiting can be worse than the punishment itself. Fluffy hasn t been heard from since he was caught moving. James begins to write about the daily adventures of Bobby Bear and Waldo not realizing the harm that he may be causing to the Secret Teddy Society. Waldo s timing for breaking the Code couldn t have been worse! The teddy world had been quiet for the last hundred years or so, but that is about to change. The
Teddy Council is facing the evils of power and corruption, a product of human influence. Ballinger is convinced that
Theodore is too old to run the Council and will stop at nothing to prove it. This book provides a rare look inside a secret culture we know very little about.

A Question of Honor is the gripping, little-known story of the refugee Polish pilots who joined the RAF and played an essential role in saving Britain from the Nazis, only to be betrayed by the Allies after the war.After Poland fell to the Nazis, thousands of Polish pilots, soldiers, and sailors escaped to England.

This moving, fascinating book uncovers a crucial forgotten chapter in World War IIand Polishhistory.From the Trade Paperback edition.

Russell Bennett , 1999, 1580460224, 9781580460224. The remarkable career of composer-orchestrator Robert Russell
Bennett (1894-1981) encompassed a wide variety of both "legitimate" and popular music-making in Hollywood, on

Bennett's autobiography, which was written in the late 1970s. It also includes eight of his most important essays on the art of orchestration. George J. Ferencz is Professor of Music at the University of Wisconsin at Whitewater.
Standing on His Promises: Finding Comfort, Hope, and Purpose in the Midst of Your Storm, Joan M.. Blake , 2008, 0981460917, 9780981460918. Description of book Joan M. Blake discusses leaving her native island of Trinidad and
Tobago and embarking on the greatest mission of her life: going to America alone. Throughout her life as a wife and mother, and through relationships with family, friends and acquaintances, she shows by her personal testimonies, how life deals out times of great joy, as well as crises. When such crises come, it is so easy to crumble under one's storms and turn inward to loneliness, anxiety, fear, anger, un-forgiveness, and bitterness. It is only by having an intimate relationship with Jesus Christ, God's Son, who has all the answers, and by committing every detail of one's life to Him, that one can enter the narrow gate of faith and find rest. Resting is standing on the promises of Jesus, putting one's trust in Him, who gives one the ability to overcome emotional upheavals and the turmoil of life, and to find comfort, hope, and purpose in the midst of them. Benefits of book: The reader can relate to and gain the tools to deal with real life issues discussed in each chapter. The following four sections at the end of every chapter can be utilized for personal devotion or for group study: A prayer for the issue discussed in the chapter A scripture verse to give biblical directive A reflection where the author re-evaluates her past actions Reader's reflection- an opportunity for the reader to join in and journal his aor her thoughts concerning the issues discussed

"God will be with us," PG assured her. They clasped their hands and prayed as they looked up toward the cooking fires in the distant, far-flung villages of the Himalayan Mountains. Willing to do whatever was necessary, no matter what the cost, they were indeed compelled to take the gospel to the unreached people of North India. "Everyone deserves to hear that Jesus loves them at least once," whispered PG. From his life as a soldier in the Indian Army to his journey as a new
Christian walking the steep, crooked paths of Himalayan villages, PG Vargis conveys his inspiring testimony in Compelled, a story of how the love of God touched one man'and changed a nation.

Trusting Doctors: The Decline of Moral Authority in American Medicine, Jonathan B. Imber , 2008, 1400828899,
9781400828890. For more than a century, the American medical profession insisted that doctors be rigorously trained in medical science and dedicated to professional ethics. Patients revered their doctors as representatives of a sacred vocation. Do we still trust doctors with the same conviction? In Trusting Doctors, Jonathan Imber attributes the development of patients' faith in doctors to the inspiration and influence of Protestant and Catholic clergymen during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. He explains that as the influence of clergymen waned, and as reliance on medical technology increased, patients' trust in doctors steadily declined. Trusting Doctors discusses the emphasis that
Protestant clergymen placed on the physician's vocation; the focus that Catholic moralists put on specific dilemmas faced in daily medical practice; and the loss of unchallenged authority experienced by doctors after World War II, when practitioners became valued for their technical competence rather than their personal integrity. Imber shows how the clergy gradually lost their impact in defining the physician's moral character, and how vocal critics of medicine contributed to a decline in patient confidence. The author argues that as modern medicine becomes defined by specialization, rapid medical advance, profit-driven industry, and ever more anxious patients, the future for a renewed trust in doctors will be confronted by even greater challenges. Trusting Doctors provides valuable insights into the religious underpinnings of the doctor-patient relationship and raises critical questions about the ultimate place of the medical profession in American life and culture.

The Great War and the Language of Modernism, Vincent Sherry , 2003, 0195101766, 9780195101768. With the expressions "Lost Generation" and "The Men of 1914," the major authors of modernism designated the overwhelming effect the First World War exerted on their era. Literary critics have long employed the same phrases in an attempt to place a radically experimental, specifically modernist writing in its formative, historical setting. What real basis did that
Great War provide for the verbal inventiveness of modernist poetry and fiction? Does the literature we bring under this heading respond directly to that provocation, and, if so, what historical memories or revelations can be heard to stir in these words?Vincent Sherry reopens these long unanswered questions by focusing attention on the public culture of the
English war. He reads the discourses through which the Liberal party constructed its cause, its Great Campaign. A breakdown in the established language of liberal modernity--the idioms of public reason and civic rationality--marked the sizable crisis this event represents in the mainstream traditions of post-Reformation Europe. If modernist writing characteristically attempts to challenge the standard values of Enlightenment rationalism, this study recovers the historical cultural setting of its most substantial and daring opportunity. And this moment was the occasion for great artistic innovations in the work of Virginia Woolf, T.S. Eliot, and Ezra Pound.Combining the records of political journalism and popular intellectual culture with abundant visual illustration, Vincent Sherry provides the framework for new interpretations of the major texts of Woolf, Eliot, and Pound. With its relocation of the verbal imagination of modernism in the context of the English war, The Great War and the Language of Modernism restores the historical content and depth of this literature, revealing its most daunting import.

Scaling Methods, Peter Dunn-Rankin, Gerald A. Knezek, Susan R. Wallace, Shuqiang Zhang , 2004, 1410611043,
9781410611048. Scaling Methods is written for professionals in the behavioral sciences who analyze data that results from subjective responses. Other books on scaling attitudes or measuring perceptions focus on the psychometrician's view of measurement. This book focuses on the users' view by concentrating on effective ways to analyze data rather than the mathematical details of how each program works. The methods included handle the majority of data analysis problems encountered and are accompanied by a software solution. Each chapter features the theory surrounding that methodology, an example, a real-world application, and a computer solution.This book introduces the major uni- and multi-dimensional scaling method techniques most common in educational, social, and psychological research. Using four primary methods of data collection--ordering, categorical rating, free clustering, and similarity judgments--Scaling
Methods, Second Edition explains how such data can be represented in ways that illustrate relationships among the data and help reveal underlying dimensional structures. Each method serves as an independent unit so readers can pick and choose from a variety of easy-to-use procedures and more advanced techniques. The new edition features a new chapter on order analysis and a CD-ROM that provides stand-alone, as well as SAS supported demonstrations of multi- dimensional scaling techniques, plus programs to get raw data into matrix form. The text is written for researchers, practitioners, and advanced students in education and the social and behavioral sciences interested in analyzing data resulting from subjective responses, especially in the measurement of attitudes. Each chapter is self-contained making this an excellent resource for use in the classroom or as a self-study tool. A first course in statistics is a helpful prerequisite.

Athanasius of Alexandria: Bishop, Theologian, Ascetic, Father, David M. Gwynn , 2012, 0199210950, 9780199210954.
Athanasius of Alexandria (c.295-373) is one of the greatest and most controversial figures of early Christian history. His life spanned the period of fundamental change for the Roman Empire and the Christian Church that followed the conversion of Constantine the Great, the first Christian Roman emperor. A bishop and theologian, an ascetic and a pastoral father, Athanasius played a central role in shaping Christianity in these crucial formative years. As bishop of
Alexandria (328-73) he fought to unite the divided Egyptian Church and inspired admiration and opposition alike from fellow bishops and the emperor Constantine and his successors. Athanasius attended the first ecumenical Council of
Nicaea summoned by Constantine in 325 and as a theologian would be remembered as the defender of the original
Nicene Creed against the 'Arian' heresy. He was also a champion of the ascetic movement that transformed Christianity, a patron of monks and virgins and the author of numerous ascetic works including the famous Life of Antony. All these elements played their part in Athanasius' vocation as a pastoral father, responsible for the physical and spiritual wellbeing of his congregations. This book offers the first study in English to draw together these diverse yet inseparable roles that defined Athanasius' life and the influence that he exerted on subsequent Christian tradition. The presentation is accessible to both specialists and non-specialists and is illuminated throughout by extensive quotation from Athanasius' many writings, for it is through his own words that we may best approach this remarkable man.

Sticks, Stones, and Broken Bones: Neolithic Violence in a European Perspective, Rick J. Schulting, Linda Fibiger , 2012,
0199573069, 9780199573066. Sticks, Stones, and Broken Bones: Neolithic Violence in a European Perspective presents an up-to-date overview of the evidence for violent injuries on human skeletons of the Neolithic period in Europe, ranging from 6700 to 2000 BC. Unlike other lines of evidence - weapons, fortifications, and imagery - the human skeleton preserves the actual marks of past violent encounters. The papers in this volume are written by the experts undertaking the archaeological analysis, and present evidence from eleven European countries which provide, for the first time, the basis for a comparative approach between different regions and periods. Difficulties and ambiguities in interpreting the evidence are also discussed, although many of the cases are clearly the outcome of conflict. Injuries often show healing, but others can be seen as the cause of death. In many parts of Europe, women and children appear to have been the victims of violence as often as adult men. The volume not only presents an excellent starting point for a new consideration of the prevalence and significance of violence in Neolithic Europe, but provides an invaluable baseline for comparisons with both earlier and later periods.
Realising ambitions: better employment support for people with a mental health condition, Rachel Perkins, Great
BritainDepartment for Work and Pensions, Paul Farmer , 2009, 0101774222, 9780101774222. People with mental health problems remain among the most excluded within society, and especially within the workplace. Over one million people with mental health conditions are on welfare benefits and the total number who are out of work may be double that figure. It is known that: appropriate employment actively improves mental health and well-being; people with mental health conditions do pursue successful careers; most people with a mental health condition who are out of work would like to be in paid employment. Yet a combination of prejudice and discrimination, low expectations, and failure to provide the necessary support, continue to deny many the opportunity to work. This review was commissioned to investigate how government could better help fulfil the employment ambitions of this sector of society. It covers the challenges faced by people with a mental health condition and outlines a vision for the future which involves: increasing capacity and dispelling myths; providing more support; effective monitoring and drivers for change. The proposals made can be achieved within existing resources by reviewing priorities, rebalancing resources and replacing traditional services that have proved relatively ineffective or produced poor employment outcomes.

The Best-Kept Boy in the World: The Life and Loves of Denny Fouts, Arthur Vanderbilt , 2013, 1936833417,
9781936833412. The Best-Kept Boy in the World is the first book ever written about Denham (Denny) Fouts
(1914-1948), the twentieth century's most famous male prostitute. He was a socialite and muse whose extraordinary life started off humbly in Jacksonville, Florida. But in short order he befriend (and bedded) the rich and celebrated and in the process conquered the world. No less an august figure than the young Gore Vidal was enchanted by Denny's special charms. He twice modeled characters on Denny in his fiction, saying it was a pity that Denny never wrote a memoir. To
Vidal he was "un homme fatal." Truman Capote, who devoted a third of Answered Prayers to Denny's life story, found that "to watch him walk into a room was an experience. He was beyond being good-looking; he was the single most charming-looking person I've ever seen." Writer Christopher Isherwood, who Denny considered his best friend, was more to the point: he called him "the most expensive male prostitute in the world." He thus served as the source for the character Paul in Isherwood's novel Down There on a Visit and appears as himself frequently in his published diaries. But
Denny's conquests were not limited to the US alone. Somerset Maugham in England has Denny in his celebrated novel
The Razor's Edge. To King Paul of Greece he was "my dear Denham" or "Darling Denham," and the King's telegrams to
Denny from the Royal Palace always were signed "love, Paul." Peter Watson, the wealthy financial backer of the popular
British literary magazine Horizon, had an erection whenever he was in the same room with Denny. The artist Michael Wishart met Denny for the first time at a party in Paris and realized instantly he was in love and that "the only place in the world I wanted to be was in Denham's bedroom." And Lord Tredegar, one of the largest landowners in Great Britain, saw Denny being led by the police through the lobby of an expensive hotel in Capri, convinced the police to let him pay the bills Denny owed, and then took Denny to accompany him and his wife as they continued on their tour of the world.
It was because of lofty connections such as these that Capote echoed Isherwood's remark by quipping that Denny was the "best-kept boy in the world," thereby coming up with the title of the chapter in Answered Prayers about Denny. In his short life, Denny achieved a mythic status, and this book follows him into his rarified world of barons and shipping tycoons, lords, princes, heirs of great fortunes, artists, and authors. Here is the story of an American original, a story with an amazing cast of unforgettable characters and extraordinary settings, the book Gore Vidal wished Denny had written.

Be Very Afraid: The Cultural Response to Terror, Pandemics, Environmental Devastation, Nuclear Annihilation, and Other
Threats, Robert Wuthnow , 2010, 0199730873, 9780199730872. Robert Wuthnow has been praised as one of "the country's best social scientistsby columnist David Brooks, who hails his writing as "tremendously valuable.The New York
Times calls him "temperate, balanced, compassionate,adding, ne can't but admire Mr. Wuthnow's views.A leading authority on religion, he now addresses one of the most profound subjects: the end of the world. In Be Very Afraid,
Wuthnow examines the human response to existential threats--once a matter for theology, but now looming before us in multiple forms. Nuclear weapons, pandemics, global warming: each threatens to destroy the planet, or at least to annihilate our species. Freud, he notes, famously taught that the standard psychological response to an overwhelming danger is denial. In fact, Wuthnow writes, the opposite is true: we seek ways of positively meeting the threat, of doing something--anything--even if it's wasteful and time-consuming. The atomic era that began with the bombing of
Hiroshima sparked a flurry of activity, ranging from duck-and-cover drills, basement bomb shelters, and marches for a nuclear freeze. All were arguably ineffectual, yet each sprang from an innate desire to take action. It would be one thing if our responses were merely pointless, Wuthnow observes, but they can actually be harmful. Both the public and policymakers tend to model reactions to grave threats on how we met previous ones. The response to the terrorist attacks of 9/11, for example, echoed the Cold War--citizens went out to buy duct tape, mimicking 1950s-era civil defense measures, and the administration launched two costly conflicts overseas. Offering insight into our responses to everything from An Inconvenient Truth to the bird and swine flu epidemics, Robert Wuthnow provides a profound new understanding of the human reaction to existential vulnerability.

From Tragedy to Triumph: The Politics Behind the Rescue of Ethiopian Jewry, Mitchell Geoffrey Bard , 2002,
0275970000, 9780275970000. From 1984 to 1991, Israel conducted a series of dramatic rescues, bringing thousands of
Ethiopian Jews to the state of Israel. Codenamed "Operation Sheba," this effort involved various covert means, including large-scale airlifts and exchanges for arms, to save these Jews from intolerable conditions in Ethiopia and the Sudan. But as dramatic and uplifting as this effort was, there are still troubling questions about why it took so many years for Israel to act on behalf its African compatriots. This is the complete story behind the Israeli rescue of the Jews of Ethiopia--how tragedy was turned into triumph. These rescue operations represented the culmination of complex political maneuvering in Israel and illustrated what Israeli resolve can accomplish when Jewish lives are endangered. It was an inspiring effort--as William Safire wrote at the time, thousands of black people are being brought to a country not as slaves, but as citizens. On the other hand, there is much to deplore how long it took for the leaders of Israel to recognize and take action to save this ancient African branch of the Jewish Diaspora, known as the Falasha. The reasons are the result of the complex intersection of Israeli geostrategy, pressure from the American Jewish community, and Ethiopian domestic politics, as well as racism and debates about the Jewishness of the Falasha community.

Building the Devil's Empire: French Colonial New Orleans, Shannon Lee Dawdy , 2008, 0226138437, 9780226138435.
Building the Devils Empire is the first comprehensive history of New Orleanss early years, tracing the towns development from its origins in 1718 to its revolt against Spanish rule in 1768. Shannon Lee Dawdys picaresque account of New
Orleanss wild youth features a cast of strong-willed captives, thin-skinned nobles, sharp-tongued women, and carousing travelers. But she also widens her lens to reveal the port citys global significance, examining its role in the French Empire and the Caribbean, and she concludes that by exemplifying a kind of rogue colonialismwhere governments, outlaws, and capitalism become entwinedNew Orleans should prompt us to reconsider our notions of how colonialism works."[A] penetrating study of the colony's founding."NationA brilliant and spirited reinterpretation of the emergence of French New
Orleans. Dawdy leads us deep into the daily life of the city, and along the many paths that connected it to France, the
North American interior, and the Greater Caribbean. A major contribution to our understanding of the history of the
Americas and of the French Atlantic, the work is also a model of interdisciplinary research and analysis, skillfully bringing together archival research, archaeology, and literary analysis.Laurent Dubois, Duke University

Public Opinion and Constitutional Controversy, Nathaniel Persily Professor of Law and Political Science Columbia
University, Berkeley Jack Citrin Professor of Political Science University of California, Patrick J. Egan Assistant Professor of
Politics New York University , 2008, 0198044054, 9780198044055. American politics is most notably characterized by the heated debates on constitutional interpretation at the core of its ever-raging culture wars, and the coverage of these lingering disputes are often inundated with public-opinion polls. Yet for all their prominence in contemporary society, there has never been an all-inclusive, systematic study of public opinion and how it impacts the courts and electoral politics. Public Opinion and Constitutional Controversy is the first book to provide a comprehensive analysis of American public opinion on the key constitutional controversies of the twentieth century, including desegregation, school prayer, abortion, the death penalty, affirmative action, gay rights, assisted suicide, and national security, to name just a few.
With essays focusing on each issue in-depth, Nathaniel Persily, Jack Citrin, Patrick Egan, and an established group of scholars utilize cutting edge public-opinion data to illustrate these contemporary debates, methodically examining each one and how public attitudes have shifted over time, especially in the wake of prominent Supreme Court decisions. More than just a compilation of available data, however, these essays join the "popular constitutionalism" debate between those who advocate a dominant role for courts in constitutional adjudication and those who prefer a more pluralized constitutional discourse. Each essay also vividly details the gap between the public and the Supreme Court on these hotly contested issues and analyzes how and why this divergence of opinion has grown or shrunk over the last fifty years.
Ultimately, Public Opinion and Constitutional Controversy sheds light on a major yet understudied part of American politics, providing an incisive look at the crucial part played by the voice of the people on the issues that have become an indelible part of the modern-day political landscape.

In this book, social psychologist and business consultant Dr. Judith Bardwick helps us understand what's really happening -- and offers a practical plan for retaking control, improving our effectiveness, and regaining our sense of well-being. One by one, she considers all the factors that make contemporary life and work so stressful, including the requirement to live at "Web speed, " the growing complexity and ubiquity of communications technology, and the world's growing disregard for privacy. Next, she offers a step-by-step plan for taking control. Discover how to convert vague anxieties into specific, solvable problems; establish realistic priorities and reduce overload; and identify manageable risks and challenges that can be engaged and overcome. Understand your personal goals and workstyles more clearly, so you can achieve a better fit with your organization -- or find an organization that fits you better.

This book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date introduction to criminological theory for students taking courses in criminology at both undergraduate and postgraduate level.

Within these the various criminological theories are located chronologically in the context of one of these different traditions, and the strengths and weaknesses of each theory and model are clearly identified. The fourth part of the book looks more closely at more recent attempts to integrate theoretical elements from both within and across models of criminal behaviour, while the fifth part addresses a number of key recent concerns of criminology postmodernism, cultural criminology, globalization and communitarianism.

Cap Anson 3: Muggsy John McGraw and the Tricksters : Baseball's Fun Age of Rule Bending, Howard W. Rosenberg ,
2005, 0972557423, 9780972557429. This is the definitive book on trickery and dirty play in baseball for the sport's formative 25 years through 1900 (the first quarter-century of the National League). Cap Anson 3 overrides much of the most colorful stuff that has been said about John McGraw or the trailblazing 1890s Orioles, by Charles Alexander (author of John McGraw), Noel Hynd (author of Giants of the Polo Grounds), Burt Solomon (author of Where They Ain't) and
Frank Deford (author of the other 2005 John McGraw book, The Old Ball Game).Cap Anson 3, which is fully endnoted and has more than 100 illustrations, figures out the origin of whoppers that prior others latched onto and systematically rebuts them, including that the sport of duckpin bowling originated in Baltimore (at a bowling alley that McGraw co- owned).Anson's full-blown biography is still to come. Cap Anson 2 was Kelly's and is supplemented in Cap Anson 3 to fully account for Kelly's trickery and occasional dirty play. The book most closely tracks two teams, Chicago of the 1880s and 1890s, led by Cap Anson, its captain-manager for 19 years, and Baltimore, led in the 1890s by manager Ned Hanlon. Chicago's players who did tricky and dirty deeds hardly had the notoriety of Baltimore ones who did so, as Baltimore's players were more high-strung. Perhaps no argument on the field was like a "group kick" conducted by Baltimore players.
Think of a latter twentieth-century Baltimore manager, Earl Weaver, times seven, and with usually a lone umpire to take it all in.In the 1880s, Chicago was arguably the best team in the National League and tricky and dirty play helped it win several pennants. Besides examining Chicago over that decade, Cap Anson 3 explores the team in the 1890s, when its record was mediocre. In the 1890s, Chicago provides a basis of comparison for Baltimore, winner of pennants from 1894 to 1896; and for McGraw in particular. Conveniently, the period through 1900 encompasses 85 percent of his playing career. The author, as with his previous books, comes close to exhausting the 19th-century newspaper record on subjects that relate to his research. Cap Anson 3 has a variety of tie-ins to situations on the diamond today, depending what type of competitive edge one is curious about--before the use of steroids. Without taking pills or injecting themselves or others, early baseball players could get away with a lot more than they can today. But what has never been known until now is just where to draw the line between first-hand reporting and revisionist history. In an age of more liberal playing rules and usually just one umpire, players in the 19th century were able to get away with lots of interesting things or take justice into their own hands.In June 2005, the Knight-Ridder Tribune news service printed a feature article by the author that compared tricky and dirty play today (and rhetoric about it) to baseball's early days

Death on Dorado, John Light , 1993, 0952252201, 9780952252207. There was no government and no police force on the planet Dorado, so when Bizman Edlin Borrowitch was murdered, his insurers paid City Investigators to find the culprit and they plumped for Accountant Ros Kernwell. She hired Tec Sarn Denson to clear her and he found plenty of suspects among the family and associates of the Bizman. All he needed to do to save his client was to find enough evidence to reduce the Legal Company computer's calculation of her guilt probability to below the conviction threshold. Unfortunately
Tec Denson was troubled by ideas of his own about that abstract and irrelevant concept, justice, and distracted by the assistance of the beautiful Seelya Koto.

Make Me Believe, Dax-Devlon Ross , 2011, 0981739881, 9780981739885. What happens when we're confronted with a question for which there isn't an easy answer, just an easy excuse for not answering? When 24-year-old Toronto
Patterson is executed in the summer of 2002 for a triple homicide committed at age 17, an obscure writer is asked by his would-be agent to write a book about him. Armed only with a recorder, case files, and a curiosity spawned by urgency,
Mosely Braun steps off the plane in Dallas and into a perilous journey that hurls his own life in harm's way. Through it all,
Mose undergoes a mythic transformation from doubt to belief, and from observation to action that is at once deeply spiritual and profoundly universal. Based on the true life and trial of Toronto Patterson, the last juvenile offender executed in the state of Texas before the Supreme Court's landmark Roper v. Simmons decision in 2005, Make Me
Believe is an astonishing story of what happens when our pursuit of convenient justice runs roughshod over inconvenient facts. Using actual interviews with the accused, case documents, news articles and courtroom testimony, the novel blends fact and fiction to render a compassionate meditation on the power of conviction.

Canada might have something to teach about the "war on terror." We also learn about the right way to deny a role to principles in ethics, how to distinguish between the good and the beautiful, the way humor works, the rabbinic nature of modernism, the difference between good, bad, great, and evil, why Plato's dialogues are not really dialogues, and why most philosophers are actually artists.

Circle of Twelve, Ted Gagliano, Robert T O'Brien , 2011, 0983307318, 9780983307310. A penetrating look at American politics. The Circle of Twelve has a clever, funny, and dramatic plot with characters and events that resemble some familiar real-life figures. The story features two politicians on a collision course. Brett Psuedoman is hungry for success and his ambition knows no bounds. His rise from ghetto poverty to the pinnacle of political achievement is a saga to be long remembered for its initial accomplishments and the disastrous consequences that follow. Suzanne Parker, his counterweight, may well be the martyr to save her country. Behind it all is the Circle of Twelve, an entity composed of the most powerful men in the world. The fate of six billion people hangs in the balance.

9780971125865. Chamulas of southern Mexico had little hope. Descendants of the once-proud Maya Indians, they were enslaved by Spanish conquistadors to build a great city and its cathedrals. Centuries later the majority Ladino population continued to discriminate against them. Chamulas kept themselves poor and wretched by practicing witchcraft and ritual alcoholism within a system designed to keep any one man or woman from rising above the rest. To protect themselves, the tribe kept outsiders at arm's length and violently guarded their traditions. Fear was perhaps the greatest price
Chamulas paid for the counterfeit comfort of traditionfear of fellow Mayas and fear of gods who required unwavering obedience and sacrifice. Then it happened. Chamulas finally met their own written languagewritten words in their own mother tongue. These startling words caused tens of thousands to abandon their allegiance to death and poverty. These words forged prosperous new lives and permeated communities with uncompromising hope. For the Chamula people,

The Music Instinct: How Music Works and Why We Can't Do Without It, Philip Ball , 2012, 0199896429, 9780199896424.
From Bach fugues to Indonesian gamelan, from nursery rhymes to rock, music has cast its light into every corner of human culture. But why music excites such deep passions, and how we make sense of musical sound at all, are questions that have until recently remained unanswered. Now in The Music Instinct, award-winning writer Philip Ball provides the first comprehensive, accessible survey of what is known - and still unknown - about how music works its magic, and why, as much as eating andsleeping, it seems indispensable to humanity. Deftly weaving together the latest findings in brain science with history, mathematics, and philosophy, The Music Instinct not only deepens our appreciation of the music we love, but shows that we would not be ourselves without it. The Sunday Times hailed it as "a wonderful account of why music matters," with Ball's "passion for music evident on every page."

London Loop, David Sharp , 2006, 1845131991, 9781845131999. The London LOOP(London Outer Orbital Path) is the newly created network of footpaths around the periphery of the capital. It is the result of 10 years' work by the London
Walking Forum to devise a route encompassing some of the glorious countryside that lies within easy reach of the heart of London. This new Recreational Path Guide divides the London LOOP into 15 convenient sections, illustrated throughout with full-color photographs and maps, specially prepared by the Ordnance Survey. The sections represent day walks of reasonable length, each starting and finishing at a public transport point; the author also suggests points at which the walks can be broken down into shorter sections by getting back on a train or bus. Key sites along the route are numbered in the text and on the maps for easy identification.
Confluence of Thought: Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr., Bidyut Chakrabarty , 2013,
0199951217, 9780199951215. While much has been written about Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr., never before has anyone compared the social and political origins and evolution of their thoughts on non-violence. In this path-breaking work, respected political theorist Bidyut Chakrabarty argues that there is a confluence between Gandhi and King's concerns for humanity and advocacy of non-violence, despite the very different historical, economic and cultural circumstances against which they developed their ideas. At the same time, he demonstrates that both were truly shaped by their historical moments, evolving their approaches to non-violence to best advance their respective struggles for freedom. Gandhi and King were perhaps the most influential individuals in modern history to combine religious and political thought into successful and dynamic social ideologies. Gandhi emphasized service to humanity while King, who was greatly influenced by Gandhi, pursued religion-driven social action. Chakrabarty looks particularly at the way in which each strategically used religious and political language to build momentum and attract followers to their movements. The result is a compelling and historically entrenched view of two of the most important figures of the twentieth century and a thoughtful meditation on the common threads that flow through the larger and enduring nonviolence movement.

Metaphor in Culture: Universality and Variation, Zoltn Kvecses , 2005, 1139444611, 9781139444613. To what extent and in what ways is metaphorical thought relevant to an understanding of culture and society? More specifically: can the cognitive linguistic view of metaphor simultaneously explain both universality and diversity in metaphorical thought?
Cognitive linguists have done important work on universal aspects of metaphor, but they have paid much less attention to why metaphors vary both interculturally and intraculturally as extensively as they do. In this book, Zoltn Kvecses proposes a new theory of metaphor variation. First, he identifies the major dimension of metaphor variation, that is, those social and cultural boundaries that signal discontinuities in human experience. Second, he describes which components, or aspects of conceptual metaphor are involved in metaphor variation, and how they are involved. Third, he isolates the main causes of metaphor variation. Fourth Professor Kvecses addresses the issue to the degree of cultural coherence in the interplay among conceptual metaphors, embodiment, and causes of metaphor variation. Christmas Tales, Frank D.

Mongolian Nights: From Wall Street Banker to Mongolian News Anchor, Patricia Sexton , 2013, 0985247886,
9780985247881. EATBlowtorched sheep. Wash down with fermented horse milk. PRAYBeneath a canopy of stars under the endless Mongolian sky. LOVEFall in love with the possibility of a future you'd only ever dreamed of. In 2006, author
Patricia Sexton set out on a journey most of us have only ever fantasized about. She quit her job to pursue her dream.
Thirty years old and a rising star at a Wall Street investment bank, Patricia wanted nothing more than to work as a foreign correspondent. So, that's just what she did, moving to Mongolia after landing an internship at the country's national TV station. "LIVE from Mongolia!" follows Patricia's unlikely journey from Wall Street to Ulan Bator. And it doesn't stop there. Not only does Patricia manage to get promoted to anchor of the Mongolian news, she also begins to meet some very unusual people following very unusual dreams of their own. There's the Mongolian hip-hop star who worked in London restaurants to make his dream come true, the Italian textile executive who left everything behind to pursue his passion for mozzarella cheese, the German brewmaster plying his trade so lovingly that there were always tears in his eyes. And many more. While Patricia chronicles her own journey from what she'd been told to pursue in life, to what she actually wanted to pursue, she meets and chronicles the stories of others on much the same path. And all this while Patricia is learning the ropes of reporting the news for the first time, camping with nomads in the Gobi desert, traveling to Siberia to meet a shaman, and even crashing Genghis Khan's 800th anniversary party. But of course a journey like this isn't without its stumbles, and Patricia has her fair share of them, including briefly returning to Wall
Street -- even after meeting with the president of CNN. It isn't often that the Executive Producer of CBS Evening News gives out blurbs, but what Rick Kaplan had to say describes it best: "Leaving a good job on Wall Street for the unknown in Mongolia? I've never heard of a more ill-conceived plan. But although author Patricia Sexton achieved what she set out to do -- change her life -- hers is a journey that is by no means finished.""LIVE from Mongolia!" is the story of this ongoing journey -- from a corporate career to a dream job, one that even Patricia hadn't imagined she'd land.
