Long undiscovered, Final Exam, Julio Cortzar’s first novel (published 1986 in Spanish) is a major work by this important Argentinian author, now available in English translation for the first time. In its characters, themes, and preoccupations it prefigures Cortzar’s later fictions, including Blow-Up and his masterpiece Hopscotch. Written in 1950 (just before the fall of Pern’s government), Final Exam is Cortzar’s allegorical, bitter, and melancholy farewell to an Argentina from which he was about to be permanently self-exiled. (Cortzar moved to Paris the following year

From a single tiny store in a backwater town of Arkansas, Sam Walton created Wal-Mart, the world’s largest retailer (with sales in 1998 of $138 billion) and the biggest private sector employer in America. When he died in 1992, Sam Walton had amassed the greatest personal fortune in American history. In this business history, Bob Ortega reveals how Walton was not simply a retailing genius but was so driven he would do almost anything to make money. Ortega continues the story up to 1999, to show how Walton’s vision and revolutionary (and often controversial) business practices are no

Whether we grow up with one, two, or several languages during our early years of life, many of us will learn a second, foreign, or heritage language in later years. The field of Second language acquisition (SLA, for short) investigates the human capacity to learn additional languages in late childhood, adolescence, or adulthood, after the first language -in the case of monolinguals- or languages -in the case of bilinguals- have already been acquired. Understanding Second Language Acquisition offers a wide-encompassing survey of this burgeoning field, its accumulated findings and proposed theor

Microbiologists are being challenged as foodborne outbreaks are increasingly being observed worldwide. Most of these outbreaks are associated with viral and bacterial pathogens such as Campylobacter, Salmonella, and lately Escherichia coli O157:H7, which emerged in the 1990s. Although parasites have been evolving with Man since antiquity, the control and eradication of these diseases are still far from being achieved. They are more frequently being reported in the literature as causative agents of food and waterborne illnesses. Foodborne Parasites examines the two major parasite groups that a
