The auto was in its infancy, and sheep still grazed along South Broad Street. But there was a vibrancy in the air as the 20th century began, the pulse of a great city rising to meet the industrial challenges of the new age. The optimism all but jumps off the pages at you in this marvelous collection of historic photographs of Philadelphia, assembled by the Philadelphia Inquirer. They span 100 years-from Republicans gathered in Philadelphia in 1900 to nominate William McKinley for president to planning for a GOP convention in 2000; from boys registering for the draft in World War I to boys resisting the draft for Vietnam. From Connie Mack's Athletics to Mike Schmidt and Pete Rose; from such Philadelphia icons as Kate Smith, Marian Anderson, and Paul Robeson to Grace Kelly, Bill Cosby, and Sly Stallone. They're all here-an unforgettable experience and a "must have" for people with roots in the Philadelphia region.
The author explains the social and cultural contexts of usig, pasma, kulam, and other folk illnesses in the Philippines.

Private eye John Taylor has been promised a million pounds if he finds a missing man - and proof of the Afterlife. But this is the Nightside . . . In the Nightside, the sun refuses to rise, monsters and men walk side by side, and nothing is ever simple. John Taylor's latest case is going to make him a lot of money - he'll earn more than a million pounds - if he manages to find Pen Donavon, a man who claims to have a DVD with evidence of the Afterlife. The editor of The Unnatural Inquirer, the most notorious gossip rag in the Nightside, has made a deal with Donavon for exclusive rights, but now both man and DVD have vanished. Taylor is used to dealing with the unsavoury denizens of the Nightside, but it's becoming clear that someone altogether more powerful - and deadly - is also on the trail. Taylor must act fast if he's to find the missing DVD before his mysterious adversary, or he may well be the next one to disappear. The Unnatural Inquirer is the eighth title in the New York Times bestselling Nightside series by Simon R. Green.
