Book Description
David Brandon, a writer and artist living in New York City, seeks the solace and potential inspiration of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. During a brief stop in Tennessee he is drawn to a boarded up mansion known locally as "Ian's Place." Quickly changing his plans, David decides to rent the home for his studio. While moving in, he is soon immersed in the mysteries and history of the house. He experiences the first of several encounters with previous owners of Ian's Place. Current reality and history begin to merge as the secrets of Ian's Place are revealed. Without warning to do so, David is drawn into the mysteries of the home, the area, and Scottish history. The only part of his life not immediately affected by this obsession is his blossoming relationship with Sarah, an attractive, independent widow. However, the mysticism and attraction of Ian's Place soon totally envelops his life. Daily discoveries allow David to piece together the home's history, and as each piece fits into place, David is pulled further and further towards the answers he is not even aware exist. His experiences with Scottish history and Ian's Place are physically consuming and almost drug-like in their attraction to David. All too soon these experiences threaten his career, his life, his relationship with Sarah, but also his sanity.

Book Description
With the wounds from a bad breakup still healing, Penny Parker is reluctant to dive back into the dating scene. She's especially wary of being set up with an older man, but Ian Pratchett wants the same future she's after: family, stability, and true love. Newly divorced and romantically pessimistic, Ian doesn't know why he's been set up with Penny. She's unrelentingly positive, utterly superstitious, and sexually inexperienced-everything Ian is not. When sparks fly between them, Penny and Ian see the possibility of a love both of them had given up searching for. But can the timing ever be right between two people born decades apart?

Book Description
This volume engages with memory of the Holocaust as expressed in literature, film, and other media. It focuses on the cultural memory of the second and third generations of Holocaust survivors, while also taking into view those who were children during the Nazi period. Language loss, language acquisition, and the multiple needs of translation are recurrent themes for all of the authors discussed. By bringing together authors and scholars (often both) from different generations, countries, and languages, and focusing on transgenerational and translational issues, this book presents multiple perspectives on the subject of Holocaust memory, its impact, and its ongoing worldwide communication.

Book Description
Indigenous women from across the Pacific have a voice in this book. Zohl de Ishtar travelled the Pacific during 1986-87 on behalf of Women Working for a Nuclear Free and Independent Pacific and interviewed women of many nations. Following up with extensive research, Zohl de Ishtar has written an impressive book that gives a voice to the Pacific women and shows what strength there is in the underknown cultures, or nearest neighbours. The nuclear industry, tourism, dumping of waste. Pollution of the oceans all carry a huge price for these islands on the rim of the world, and one the rim of our imaginations. Countries covered are: Hawaii, the Marshall Islands, the Northern Marianas, Guam, Belau, Fiji, Australia, Aotearoa/New Zealand, and Te Ao Maohi/Tahiti Polynesia.

Book Description
With each species lost to the mass extinction crisis, the natural economy of the nation and of the world is greatly diminished. An endangered animal may hold the cure for cancer; a threatened plant could someday become a major food crop; and even bacteria often provide novel molecular structures in polymer science. As the rainforest is destroyed and habitats are degraded, conservationists are now urgently searching for dramatic new ways to save these economic resources. In this provocative and important book, Joseph Henry Vogel details one potential solution that has met with increasing interest and popularity: the privatization of genetic information. Vogel cogently makes the case that the world should abandon the doctrine of "the common heritage of mankind" and create private property rights over genes. Landowners, once vested with the genetic resources on their land, will have a newfound financial incentive to protect what they now already control. Genes for Sale provides an overview of the many complexities inherent in implementing a viable conservation policy. Vogel elaborates both technical issues like the construction of a "gargantuan database" of landtitles and biological inventories, and political issues like legal reform. Clearly written, engaging, and timely, Genes for Sale provides students, scientists, and policy makers alike with the ideal introduction to an exciting and controversial new approach to saving our precious living heritage.

Addie is visiting Ireland for her aunt’s over-the-top destination wedding and hoping she can stop thinking about the one thing she did that left her miserable and heartbroken—and threatens her future.

Book Description
The food that Jewish people eat is part of our connection to our faith, culture, and history. Not only is Jewish food comforting and delicious, it’s also a link to every facet of Judaism. By learning about and cooking traditional Jewish dishes, we can understand fundamentals such as kashrut, community, and diversity. And Jewish history is so connected to food that one comedian said that the story of Judaism can be condensed into nine words: They tried to kill us. We survived. Let’s eat. Let’s Eat follows the calendar of Jewish holidays to include food from the many different Jewish communities around the world; in doing so, it brings the values that are the foundation of Judaism into focus. It also covers the way these foods have ended up on the Jewish menu and how Jews, as they wandered through the world, have influenced and been influenced by other nations and cuisines. Including over 40 recipes, this delicious review of the role of food in Jewish life offers a lively history alongside the traditions of
