The Invisible Enemy: Black Fox
There is a secret that will bring America to its knees. It starts when reporter Dorian Valentine discovers a horrific secret regarding the Strategic Offensive Reduction Treaty (a critical peace agreement between the former Soviet Union and the United States): One side is cheating, and even worse - the cheating side holds the ultimate trump card. Brutally trained from birth to live, talk, and think like Americans, Russia has constructed the most dangerous network of secret operatives ever known - created for the ultimate trinity: Intelligence, Espionage, and Warfare. Now they are out of control, striking fear into the heart of the Pentagon. The Central Intelligence Agency assembles a powerful team of agents that “do not exist” in an attempt to terminate an enemy that cannot be caught by any traditional methods.
Time and Chance
A biography of President Gerald Ford by one of his closest advisers
Homelessness and Social Policy
The problem of homelessness is deeply emblematic of the sort of society Britain has become. What other social phenomena could better epitomise the end of modernity than our seeming inability to adequately respond to the most basic needs - shelter, warmth, food - of substantial numbers of our 'citizens'? Homelessness and Social Policy offers a dispassionate analysis of the problem of homelessness and the policy responses it has so far invoked. By reviewing theoretical and legal conceptualisations of homelessness and presenting extensive statistical analyses, this book considers the impact of the experience of homelessness and the policy responses. Homelessness and Social Policy will prove to be invaluable to students of social and public policy, health studies, housing studies and sociology.

Eleanor Robson Belmont
When Mrs. August Belmont died in 1979, just before her 100th birthday, she was remembered as a philanthropist and advocate for the arts, especially the Metropolitan Opera--but before her triumphs as Mrs. Belmont, she had dignified the American stage for 13 glorious years as Eleanor Robson, actress. Her splendid voice, understated style, and always-evident intelligence thrilled legions of theatregoers and enthralled the best playwrights of her time, including Israel Zangwill, Clyde Fitch, and George Bernard Shaw. Despite the brevity of her career, Eleanor Robson stands as a prototype for many actresses who followed her--women who sought to control their own careers and demanded artistic respect and freedom, and who, by the twenty-first century, would confidently call themselves not actresses, but actors. This is the first book-length biography of her, focusing especially on her theatrical career.
The KEEPERS
When RS was fourteen, he met a new friend that lived in the next farm over from his house. His name was Alex. Alex and RS would spend the summer days fishing, bike riding, and sharing their crazy dreams they would have and try to make sense of them. RS thought Alex was the smartest kid he had ever known. Maybe it was because Alex had told RS that his mother and father were scientists. Alex told RS that one day, RS would build a machine that would help make people's life better. Alex moved away in the fall and told RS they would see each other one day in the future. Early in the spring of the next year, after the snow had melted and the back roads were dry. RS walked the four miles to the farm where Alex ha lived hoping he had returned. To RS's surprise, he found only an old farmhouse that looked like it hadn't been lived in for years. RS did not remember it looking that way. After all these years RS still remember his friend and hoped that he would see him again.
Ageing and Social Policy in Australia
Industrialised countries worldwide have for years been confronting the prospect of a steadily ageing population. This book, first published in 1997, reflects the breadth of research into gerontology and analyses the major themes and issues in the area of ageing and social policy in both an Australian context and from an international comparative perspective. Topics discussed include unemployment, education, and housing for the aged. Added to this is the contemporary influence of multiculturalism and the challenge it poses to policies and programs that must cater for a growing diversity in the ageing population. A special focus is given to the situation of women and Aboriginal Australians and the specific structural disadvantages they face. This book is essential reading for students and policy-makers in sociology, social and public policy, gerontology, and public health.
