WHEN NOTHING'S STRAIGHTFORWARD ABOUT APERSONAL INJURY CASE, MAVERICK NEW YORK ATTORNEY TUG WYLER IS THE EVER-INGENIOUS, HARD-CHARGING FELLOW TO TURN TO. BUT WHAT HAPPENS IF, AS IN ELTON'S CASE, THE BIGGEST SURPRISES AREN'T THE ONES HE'S HIMSELF SPRINGING? Wrongfully locked up for a crime he didn't commit, the wheelchair-bound Elton Cribbs immediate situation soon goes from bad to tragic. Could it have happened that, while in custody and being transported with less than suitable care in a police van he suffered the injuries which rendered him a paraplegic? Certainly, ever since then-for the past decade-he's led the life of an aggrieved victim, seeking justice while rejecting pity. Retained no...
Tug Wyler is embroiled in the mysterious medical malady of a sexy stripper who slipped on a banana peel during her signature act Cookie, an angel in stiletto heels, is by far the most popular performer at Jingles Dance Bonanza. To her devoted audience, she's a friend, therapist, and shoulder to cry on, all rolled into one. While meeting an old pal at the club, Tug doesn't expect to pick up a new client but quickly realizes the gallant Cookie--dancing in a neck brace, each leg kick potentially her last--is in need of a committed champion. Righting wrongs is never a simple task for Tug, a sharp-witted and unorthodox trial lawyer who repeatedly finds himself in the middle of unusual cases and causes. But that doesn't stop him from trying. Believing that Cookie is the victim of a spine surgeon with a sloppy touch, Tug takes her case. But as he seeks both medical remedy and a fair shake for Cookie, he realizes--a tad too late--that sinister sights are now trained on him. In Cookie's Case, this offbeat attorney will go farther for justice than he ever has before.
A TEEN-AGED GIRL CAN BE AMONG THE MOST VULNERABLE OF HUMAN BEINGS. AND THE PREYED-UPON YOUNG WOMAN AT THE DARK CENTER OF JENNA'S CASE IS CERTAIN TO WIN THE HEART OF READERS JUST AS SHE HAS THAT OF HER SWORN LEGAL CHAMPION, THE STRATEGICALLY EDGE-PUSHING, EVER-RESOURCEFUL NEW YORK ATTORNEY TUG WYLER. Believing Jenna Radcliff to be the victim of a Brooklyn doctor willing to put greed above his oath to do no harm, Tug takes on her case with deeply felt zeal. Yet what he quickly comes to understand is that his new client-once an obviously bright, outgoing girl (and ace neighborhood double-Dutch jump-roper)-is now a nearly mute shadow of her former self. As he proceeds to amass evidence against t...
Lance Turner's successful record of accomplishment as a donor coordinator for the Ohio Organ Bank is suddenly jeopardized when six of seven transplant patients simultaneously become ill within a month of receiving organs from a young, seemingly healthy, deceased donor. The series of lawsuits generated from these cases, spearheaded by William Hackett's notorious medical malpractice firm, pose a threat not only to Lance's career but also to public trust in the organ donation system and to the lives of thousands of patients awaiting organ transplants. ,

This definitive photographic book about the Apollo missions reveals hundreds of extraordinary, newly-restored, and all-new images from the NASA archives that provide a never-before-seen perspective on the Apollo endeavors more than 50 years after humankind first stepped foot on the moon. In Houston, Texas, there is a frozen vault that preserves the original NASA photographic film of the Apollo missions. For half a century, almost every image of the Moon landings publicly available was produced from a lower-quality copy of these frozen originals. Over the last few years, NASA image restorer Andy Saunders has been working hard. Taking newly available digital scans and applying pain-staking care and cutting-edge enhancement techniques, he has created the highest quality Apollo photographs ever produced. Never-before-seen spacewalks and crystal-clear portraits of astronauts in their spacecraft, along with startling new visions of the Earth and the Moon, offer astounding new insight into one of our greatest endeavors. This is the definitive record of all Apollo missions and a mesmerizing, high-definition journey into the unknown.

An argument for why emergencies are no excuse for extralegal action by presidents Using emergency as a cause for action ultimately leads to an almost unnoticed evolution in the political understanding of presidential powers. The Constitution, however, was designed to function under "states of exception," most notably through the separation of powers, and provides ample internal checks on emergency actions taken under claims of necessity. Thomas Crocker urges Congress, the courts, and other bodies to put those checks into practice.
