Fisk University
In January of 1866, with the devastation of the Civil War far from assuaged in the slowly recuperating South, Fisk University made its home in abandoned Federal barracks near Nashville, Tennessee. The entire region faced hardships after the conflict, but Southern blacks still encountered what seemed to be insurmountable obstacles, even after the emancipation of slaves. Within five years of its opening, Fisk was in such a dire financial situation, many expected its closure; however, in an effort to raise funds for the university, Professor George L. White and nine students traveled the country performing in a musical ensemble known as the Jubilee Singers. Their hard-won rise to fame led them ...
FISK The S.U.B.S.T.I.T.U.T.E.
Think Agents of Shield meets Men In Black! Mr. Fisk is the best at what he does, but nobody knows it. He's a covert agent in the S.U.B.S.T.I.T.U.T.E. department of the Board of Education. He's called in to deal with mad scientists, temporal rifts, aliens and any other supernatural occurrences that might threaten a school - all without public knowledge, to prevent widespread panic. Mr. Fisk thought he'd seen it all, until now. Suddenly, he finds himself (armed only with his briefcase and a new protege by his side) facing the greatest challenge of his career. After all, weird has no lesson plan! Collects comic book issues 0-3. "In all honesty this book was a lot of fun. It does what any good intro issue should do, by introducing the reader to the cast and giving them a little back story. The action in this book was probably the highlight though. I think that what I was able to walk away with was some mystery and definitely some intrigue." - Horrornews.net A Caliber Comics release.
Working Knowledge
Skilled workers of the early nineteenth century enjoyed a degree of professional independence because workplace knowledge and technical skill were their "property," or at least their attribute. In most sectors of today's economy, however, it is a foundational and widely accepted truth that businesses retain legal ownership of employee-generated intellectual property. In Working Knowledge, Catherine Fisk chronicles the legal and social transformations that led to the transfer of ownership of employee innovation from labor to management. This deeply contested development was won at the expense of workers' entrepreneurial independence and ultimately, Fisk argues, economic democracy. By reviewing judicial decisions and legal scholarship on all aspects of employee-generated intellectual property and combing the archives of major nineteenth-century intellectual property-producing companies--including DuPont, Rand McNally, and the American Tobacco Company--Fisk makes a highly technical area of law accessible to general readers while also addressing scholarly deficiencies in the histories of labor, intellectual property, and the business of technology.

Trillions
Trillions were hard, bright, tiny things which suddenly arrived - millions and millions and millions of them - one windy day in a village called Harbourtown. No one could explain them, much less why they had suddenly arrived. Were they a blessing, as their beauty suggested, or a deadly, inexplicable threat? A boy with a microscope was just as likely to come up with the answer as all the acknowledged experts in any known kind of science, so somehow it seemed natural for two 'ordinary' boys, Scott and Bem, to join forces with an ex-spaceman against the frightening efforts of the ruthless General Harman to destroy the Trillions, no matter what the cost.
