Education in the 21stCentury
Your author, Dr. Jon Schiller, decided to write this book about Education in the 21st Century after observing what changes are taking place in the Public Schools from Kindergarten thru the 12th grade in high school. His co-author Emilie Manns Smyth had a unique experience teaching 18 years in the California elementary school system in Fullerton and in Huntington Beach, California. Then 25 years after retirement and after living in Spain for 17 years, she returned to California and began substitute teaching in a school district in the County of Santa Barbara all grades from Kindergarten through High School Seniors. She taught all classes offered to her, from high school honors English, special education classes at all levels, English as a Second Language classes, Physical Education at all levels, Automobile Mechanics, Drivers Education and Shop classes. This allowed her to contribute observations she had seen in the California school system and what was taught to the students over this wide range of years.
Lost in Space
The US Space Shuttle delivering supplies to the US Space Station has a mechanical breakdown that prevents its return to the Earth. The remaining two US Space Shuttles are launched as quickly as possible to carry the needed supplies to the Space Station before the people there run out of expendables: air, water, etc. Both aging Shuttles suffer breakdowns - one explodes on the launch pad and the other has a breakdown in orbit near the Space Station. This second Shuttle is close enough to the Space Station to be secured by a cable and then winched up to the Space Station docking gate. The hero, Dr. Donald Richards, devises two options for rescuing the stranded astronauts: use the new European Space Station Shuttle or use the Soviet Space Shuttle. The US President over-rules NASA's recommendation to use the Soviet Space Shuttle for the rescue, so Richards negotiates an agreement with the European Space Agency to use their Shuttle to rescue the astronauts.

Searching for Words: How Can We Tell Our Stories of Suicide
This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2013. It is all too easy to begin the introduction of a book examining suicide by citing statistics on rates of death around the world. The vast majority of research seeks to make sense of suicide through quantitative analysis; however, this does not begin to do justice to the lived experience. While we do not wish to suggest there is one ‘right’ lens through which to study suicide, we must recognize that there are myriad lenses though which to examine it. There are many voices, many stories that must be heeded, and these stories are not just of the people who have themselves died by suicide, but also those who are or have been suicidal and those who have been bereaved by suicide. By examining cultural perspectives, different media, memory and place, as well as loss, this book aims to tell stories of suicide and working and living with the suicidal.
