Book Description
Madeline Marshall studies engineering at Berkeley during the Nixonian time of civil disturbance and political distrust, but fearing the consequences of a youthful misstep, she's forced to settle on a very different life from the one she began. She flees federal prosecution, first to Oregon, then farther north, in search of safety and anonymity along the way finding a loving, if unconventional, husband in the small logging town of Blessing, Idaho. Over time she grows to appreciate the simple activities that have come to define her daily existence, but when she learns she's misinterpreted the severity and nature of her criminal offense, she must decide if trading good friendships for a return to her former prosperity and status would be an even bigger mistake than the one she has paid for with thirty years of lies, apprehension and unrelenting vigilance.

Alexandra Tracey knew the moment she met handsome and sensual Judias Jacobson that he was an enigmatic force to be reckoned with. Still, although she now senses deep inside there is something not quite right about him, Alex, who is proud of the moral values she holds close, cannot seem to break free from his magnetic personalityuntil he does the unthinkable.

As she attempts to piece her life back together again, Alex accepts Jesus into her heart with the help of Joshua Davis, a gentle stranger who sporadically appears at her side. While Joshua helps her repair her broken heart, Alex has no idea that Judias lurks in the shadows, waiting to unleash his jealous vengeance. Now that she is with another, he is determined to win Alex back, no matter what the cost. But she wants nothing to do with a past filled with misery and darkness. Desperate to do anything to keep Judias from destroying her newfound happiness, Alex soon discovers her journey into finding true love is filled with more danger than she ever imagined.

Book Description
Can a parrot understand complex concepts and mean what it says? Since the early 1900s, most studies on animal-human communication have focused on great apes and a few cetacean species. Birds were rarely used in similar studies on the grounds that they were merely talented mimics--that they were, after all, "birdbrains." Experiments performed primarily on pigeons in Skinner boxes demonstrated capacities inferior to those of mammals; these results were thought to reflect the capacities of all birds, despite evidence suggesting that species such as jays, crows, and parrots might be capable of more impressive cognitive feats. Twenty years ago Irene Pepperberg set out to discover whether the results of the pigeon studies necessarily meant that other birds--particularly the large-brained, highly social parrots--were incapable of mastering complex cognitive concepts and the rudiments of referential speech. Her investigation and the bird at its center--a male Grey parrot named Alex--have since become almost as well known as their primate equivalents and no less a subject of fierce debate in the field of animal cognition. This book represents the long-awaited synthesis of the studies constituting one of the landmark experiments in modern comparative psychology.

Book Description
Alex's Wake is a tale of two parallel journeys undertaken seven decades apart. In the spring of 1939, Alex and Helmut Goldschmidt were two of more than 900 Jewish refugees fleeing Nazi Germany aboard the St. Louis, “the saddest ship afloat” (New York Times). Turned away from Cuba, the United States, and Canada, the St. Louis returned to Europe, a stark symbol of the world's indifference to the gathering Holocaust. The Goldschmidts disembarked in France, where they spent the next three years in six different camps before being shipped to their deaths in Auschwitz. In the spring of 2011, Alex's grandson, Martin Goldsmith, followed in his relatives' footsteps on a six-week journey of remembrance and hope, an irrational quest to reverse their fate and bring himself peace. Alex's Wake movingly recounts the detailed histories of the two journeys, the witnesses Martin encounters for whom the events of the past are a vivid part of a living present, and an intimate, honest attempt to overcome a tormented family legacy.
