   The world knows Florence Nightingale as "the lady with the lamp"-the revered founder of nursing as a respectable profession for women. But few people are aware that Nightingale’s career began only after years of struggle to free herself from her suffocating Victorian family. In this surprisingly passionate feminist essay (a "brilliant polemic," states Martha Vicinus), Nightingale denounces the lives of idleness she and other women of her class were forced to lead.

Have you ever thought about how people judge you by their perceptions. Do you really understand the world around you? Problems, who do you blame? What drives people, what secrets do they hide. In a tranquil English village, the fabric of the church is in decline. Subterranean forces are at work, peoples pasts are catching them up. Curtains are twitching, people suffering, all is not what it seems. Below the clock of humanity’s smooth exterior, sharp teeth bite on the cogs of others.

The Nightingale is a riveting debut that offers a rare glimpse into war-torn Iraq--where a spirited young woman must choose between honoring the traditions of the past and her own hopes for the future. . .Every day Leila al-Ghani spends in Mosul is a reminder of what her life once was. Before the war she was the daughter of one of the city’s finest families. She was encouraged by her parents to get an education, to think like a modern woman. But now, with Mosul crumbling around her, she is expected to strictly adhere to traditions, to dress modestly with the hijab covering her hair, and

IF THE GRASS IS GREENER ON THE OTHER SIDE... It’s probably getting better care. Success is not a matter of luck or circumstance. It’s not a matter of fate or the breaks you get or who you know. Success is a matter of sticking to a set of commonsense principles anyone can master. In Lead the Field Earl Nightingale explains these guidelines: the magic word in life is ATTITUDE. It determines your actions, as well as the actions of others. It tells the world what you expect from it. When you accept responsibility for your attitude, you accept responsibility for your entire life. Ea

An unexpected bequest sends waves of violence through the placid groves of academe in Joanne Dobson’s third mystery to feature Professor Karen Pelletier.Still untenured, and therefore on shaky academic ground, feisty young Enfield College professor Pelletier finds herself going head-to-head with the resident Edgar Allan Poe expert, Elliot Corbin, an academic windbag of monumental proportions who is lobbying to be appointed to the much-coveted and recently vacated Palaver Chair. So when Karen receives a serendipitous bonanza in the form of never-before-seen manuscripts and journals by the
