Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. No Stock Photos! We photograph every item. edge wear; When Russell Stone becomes the teacher of a young Algerian woman with a disturbingly luminous presence, he is both entranced and troubled. How can this refugee from terror radiate such bliss? Is it possible to be so open and alive without coming to serious harm? Soon, Thassa's joyful personality comes to the attention of the notorious geneticist and advocate for genomic enhancement, Thomas Kurton, whose research has enabled him to announce his discovery of the genetic underpinnings of happiness. Thassa's congenital optimism is severely tested by the growing media circus. Devoured by the public as a living prophecy, her genetic secret will transform both Russell and Kurton, as well as the world at large. Generosity is fast, funny and finally magical. In his most exuberant and exhilaratingly brilliant book yet, Richard Powers asks his readers to consider the big questions facing humankind as it learns of the genetic map underlying every aspect of our existence.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. Richard A. Posner is probably the leading scholar in the rapidly growing field of the economics of law; he is also an extremely lucid writer. In this book, he applies economic theory to four areas of interest to students of social and legal institutions: the theory of justice, primitive and ancient social and legal institutions, the law and economics of privacy and reputation, and the law and economics of racial discrimination.The book is designed to display the power of economics to organize and illuminate diverse fields in the study of nonmarket behavior and institutions. A central theme is the importance of uncertainty to an understanding of social and legal institutions. Another major theme is that the logic of the law, in many ways but not all, appears to be an economic one: that judges, for example, in interpreting the common law, act as if they were trying to maximize economic welfare.Part I examines the deficiencies of utilitarianism as both a positive and a normative basis of understanding law, ethics, and social institutions, and suggests in its place the economist's concept of "wealth maximization." Part II, an examination of the social and legal institutions of archaic societies, notably that of ancient Greece and primitive societies, argues that economic analysis holds the key to understanding such diverse features of these societies as reciprocal gift-giving, blood guilt, marriage customs, liability rules, and the prestige accorded to generosity. Many topics relevant to modern social and philosophical debate, including the origin of the state and the retributive theory of punishment, are addressed. Parts III and IV deal with more contemporary social and jurisprudential questions. Part III is an economic analysis of privacy and the statutory and common law rules that protect privacy and related interests-rules that include the tort law of privacy, assault and battery, and defamation. Finally, Part IV examines, again from an economic standpoint, the controversial areas of racial and sexual discrimination, with special reference to affirmative action. Both Part III and Part IV develop as a subtheme the issue of proper standards of constitutional adjudication by the Supreme Court.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Updated with a new introduction from Robin Wall Kimmerer, the special edition of Braiding Sweetgrass , reissued in honor of the fortieth anniversary of Milkweed Editions, celebrates the book as an object of meaning that will last the ages. Beautifully bound in stamped linen cloth with a bookmark ribbon and a deckled edge, this edition features five brilliantly colored illustrations by artist Nate Christopherson. In increasingly dark times, we honor the experience that more than 350,000 readers in North America have cherished about the book--gentle, simple, tactile, beautiful, even sacred--and offer an edition that will inspire readers to gift it again and again, spreading the word about scientific knowledge, indigenous wisdom, and the teachings of plants. As a botanist, Robin Wall Kimmerer has been trained to ask questions of nature with the tools of science. As a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, she embraces the notion that plants and animals are our oldest teachers. In Braiding Sweetgrass , Kimmerer brings these two lenses of knowledge together to take us on "a journey that is every bit as mythic as it is scientific, as sacred as it is historical, as clever as it is wise" (Elizabeth Gilbert). Drawing on her life as an indigenous scientist, and as a woman, Kimmerer shows how other living beings--asters and goldenrod, strawberries and squash, salamanders, algae, and sweetgrass--offer us gifts and lessons, even if we've forgotten how to hear their voices. In reflections that range from the creation of Turtle Island to the forces that threaten its flourishing today, she circles toward a central argument: that the awakening of ecological consciousness requires the acknowledgment and celebration of our reciprocal relationship with the rest of the living world. For only when we can hear the languages of other beings will we be capable of understanding the generosity of the earth, and learn to give our own gifts in return. "I give daily thanks for Robin Wall Kimmerer for being a font of endless knowledge, both mental and spiritual." --RICHARD POWERS, NEW YORK TIMES Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

DUST JACKET: Previous Dealer Markings (11.00 Neatly Inked to Front Cover Portion); Repaired; Moderately Creased; Moderately Chipped; Moderate Yellowing Due to Age; In Archival Quality Jacket Cover. by Kitty Kelley, Author of Jackie Oh! BOOK NUMBER: 2817. PHOTO EDITOR: Vincent Virga. JACKET PHOTOGRAPH: Ray Fisher. JACKET DESIGN BY: Barry Littmann. SYNOPSIS: From her first starring role as the violet-eyed innocent in National Velvet to her sultry portrayal of Maggie the Cat and her Academy Award-winning performances in Butterfield 8 and Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, Elizabeth Taylor's undeniable screen presence has been marveled over while her talent has been alternately disparaged and defended. And from her first wedding, in an MGM dream gown, to her current real-life role as a Senate wife, her private affairs have been the subject of public scrutiny. This breathlessly detailed biography by Kitty Kelley, author of the best-selling Jackie Oh! is the most unabashed version of Elizabeth Taylor's life yet told. It follows her incredible career and her tumultuous personal life through fifty-five films, seven marriages, innumerable love affairs and several near-fatal illnesses; trough periods of mourning, times of depression, bursts of generosity. Irresistibly it draws readers into the glamorous world that this beautiful star epitomizes. It begins with Elizabeth's childhood when, as a pretty eight-year-old, she was edged into Hollywood's power circles by her star-struck mother. At age twelve she was acknowledged as a young actress of some promise. By the age of twenty-seven she was America's biggest box-office attraction and the highest-paid actress in the world. Elizabeth's personal life became national news, filled as it was with the intrigue and high drama of her films. Her trials and theatrics were well publicized: her notoriety as a "home wrecker" in the Eddie Fisher-Debbie Reynolds divorce; her oaths of eternal devotion to each of her six husbands; the jealousy that ravaged her marriage to Richard Burton. Her extravagances were world famous: chile dinners flown from Los Angeles to Pars; hundreds of diamonds sewn to dresses to avoid "cheap rhinestone shine" under klieg lights; and of course, the $305,000 33-carat Krupp diamond she received from Richard Burton. For decades Elizabeth Taylor's triumphs and tragedies, ups and downs, failures and successes, marriages and divorces have been the stuff of headlines. Again and again she has bounced back from illnesses and disasters that seemed impossible to surmount, packing into one lifetime more glamour, more controversy, more romance than any other woman in this century--perhaps in any century--to emerge as the ultimate star. Kitty Kelley left a job as researcher for the editorial page of The Washington Post to write for The New York Times, Newsweek, McCall's, Redbook, Good Housekeeping, Ladies' Home Journal, Cosmopolitan, Family Circle, New Times, Washingtonian magazine, The Washington Star, the Los Angeles Times, Paris Metro, New York magazine, and other publications. Miss Kelley has lived in Washington, D.C., for more than ten years and worked for four years as a press secretary to Senator Eugene J. McCarthy. Elizabeth Taylor: The Last Star is her third book.

Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. First Edition Hardcover Brimstone signed by Author With all good wishes Richard Masefield Feb 87. Brimstone is a story of temptation, ambition and their consequences. The year is 1793. The Terror is at its height in France, Britain is at war with her old enemy once more, and along the coast of Sussex the smugglers' trade in spirits and tobacco is flourishing. The novel's two heroes are brothers bound by love, but separated by opposing characters which come to represent two the two faces of eighteenth century England - its brutality and its enlightenment. For the reckless Aaron Corbyn, there are adventures to be had and profits to be made from contrabanding. While his elder brother Rafe, a sobrely steadfast physician, runs the family estate of Chalkdean, Aaron builds an illegal empire as master smuggler across the Channel, at Fecamp in Normandy. Ellin Rimmer, daughter of a 'fire and brimstone' preacher, marries one brother to escape the loneliness of life in a parsonage, only to find herself hopelessly attracted to the other - and to be compelled through him to an impetuous decision that will have drastic consequences for all three. Sweeping from the open downland and flintstone villages of Sussex to the coast of revolutionary France, from Newgate prison and the subhuman conditions of a convict transport ship to the penal colony of New South Wales, Brimstone weighs the destructive aspects of sexual obsession against the healing power of generosity to bring its heroine an unexpected redemption.(We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).

A book about life far more than death, this is a unique work from a man who was loved and revered during a lifetime of extraordinary achievement. Written during his last months, When I Die is as courageous, valuable and uplifting a legacy to the world as anyone could wish to bestow.'This profoundly moving and inspirational book not only recounts his experiences but also seeks to make sense of terminal disease and dying' Leyla Sanai, Independent 'The book's power comes from the urgency and simplicity of his message, and is given depth by his family's perspective on his death.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Sarah Sarai's Geographies of Soul and Taffeta takes place in a universe where the real and the unreal meet each other in a careful, ecstatic dance, where words melt into their partners and opposites, and Yin and Yang swirl together like the best kind of soft serve ice cream. The ideas and images here are exact, surprising, and often humorous: in fact, Sarai's poems strike new ground in being intelligent and far reaching while maintaining an air of humility and matter of factness. -Christine Hamm The poems in Sarah Sarai's Geographies of Soul and Taffeta are little transgressions, butterflies a-wing. They present a poetry of surprise. Don't expect candy (though there might be some); don't expect demons (even the ones who live there). Dive in, world-hunter, dream-needer. Let Sarai's vision and images wing you to your next place, fiercely reflective and very much alive. -Richard Loranger Sarah Sarai's Geographies of Soul and Taffeta is a strong and beautiful sequence of poems. What haunts me most has to do with the emotional acuity and authority, how the poems' subjectivities are rendered essential. The generosity, the word play and re-play, the variations, the real world and its perpetual redemptions, the imagination's power not to transform exactly, but to reveal, which is transforming-all make Sarai's new collection a rewarding and an astonishing read. -Debora Lidov Sarah Sarai was born in Port Washington, grew up in California, and lives in New York. A former English teacher and college professor, she is now an editor and researcher. She has an MFA in fiction from Sarah Lawrence College. Collections include The Future Is Happy, I Feel Good, Emily Dickinson's Coconut Face, O You of the Cotton Pajamas, and The Risen Barbie. Her poems appear in numerous journals and anthologies. 46 pp. Englisch.
