Book Description
Dana sits in a courtroom with her legs shackled as a long list of charges is read out, many of them dangerous. But the panic that grips her is not because she has been caught. She knows there has been a terrible mistake - she didn't commit any of these crimes. As Dana and her lover Bridger set out to clear her name and find the person who is living a blameless life of criminal excess at her expense, they begin to test the life they have built together to its limits.

Book Description
With a mixture of erudition and humor, Canadian radio personality Jay Ingram discusses the sociology of talking: the dynamics of conversation, men and women's different propensities for interrupting, and even the proper use of "you know." But he also delves into the mystery-riddled physiology of talking. While we now know that certain areas of the brain seem to control specific aspects of speech—from articulating words to creating meaningful sentences—how do scientists explain the extraordinary case of the young stroke victim who lost only the words for fruits and vegetables? Is it possible that the ability to talk is actually encoded in our genes, as some scientists believe? From the language roots of North America to the speech differences between Neanderthals and Cro-Magnons, from modern children creating whole new languages in one generation to Freudian slips, from talking to yourself to speaking in tongues, Talk, Talk, Talk covers the gamut of humankind's most enigmatic and intriguing skill. Impeccably researched, lively and accessible, Talk, Talk, Talk is a book you won't be able to keep quiet about.

Book Description
"Talk, Talk, Sweet Charlotte" presents a unique and often candid investigation of certain psychological, emotional, and social considerations typically associated with autism. It describes the relationship that was built over a two year period when the author worked as a one on one aide with Charlotte Tate, a junior high student who has autism. Charlotte was non-verbal and very aggressive toward principals, vice principals, teachers, aides, and other students. Her behaviors had prevented her from participating in a regular classroom environment. The author traces his work with Charlotte and highlights qualities relating to belief, courage, and caring in various forms. The transformation of Charlotte from "one of the toughest kids to work with" to a student who has a "thirst for knowledge" is an inspirational, amazing story.
