When She Was White
During the worst years of official racism in South Africa, the story of one young girl gripped the nation and came to symbolize the injustice, corruption, and arbitrary nature of apartheid. Born in 1955 to a pro-apartheid Afrikaner couple, Sandra Laing was officially registered and raised as a white child. But when she was sent to a boarding school for whites, she was mercilessly persecuted because of her dark skin and frizzy hair.

Resilience
"During World War II, hundreds of thousands of Hungarian Jews suffered prejudice and discrimination, oppressive segregation, and wholesale murder at the hands of the Nazis. In "Resilience," Dr. Judy Stone reveals how her family survived these monstrous times and slowly rebuilt their lives, focusing on their inner strength and the good people they found. This book is a study in human contrasts: kindness and callousness, tolerance and hatred, compassion and cruelty. It not only provides testimony about the horrors of the Holocaust and the lessons we must learn so that history will not repeat itself but also offers readers a connection to the rich heritage of Jewish life in Europe that has been largely lost."--Back cover
Light Elements
An award-winning columnist for Discover magazine takes a light look at hard science. If science had been this funny in school, maybe you would have listened. Part stand-up comic, part gonzo journalist, Discover magazine's Judith Stone can sniff out strange science at five paces. This offbeat collection of her trenchant, witty essays explodes the boundaries of science, with outrageous insights and surprising factual information that will keep you laughing and learning. Praise for Light Elements "You need this book, because it contains Amazing Science Facts, such as how the entire world could be destroyed by cows. Also there's a fascinating chapter on getting yourself mummified. This would be after your death, of course. Which could be any day now, what with these cows. You definitely need this book."--Dave Barry "Ms. Stone is a boon to those who stopped listening after fourth-grade science. She is witty and knowledgeable. I can't believe it's actually fun."--Wendy Wasserstein "It's full of interesting information and it's really funny. If that's not what you're looking for, you're not looking for a book. Why not try a good appliance store?"--Penn & Teller
