Perpetual Care
NAOMI TALBOT is haunted by shadows--shadows which confide in her, shadows which taunt her, shadows which remind her of what she has become. Popular fiction would label her--vampire. But she is more than what that word can define. She is a traveler between parallel worlds--the worlds of the living and the dead. Savannah Georgia is as much a part of Naomi's existence as is the stolen blood which flows through her veins. For it was in this sultry city, in the year 1923, that Naomi learned of love. A love that found its place in the hearts of two young women...a love that would transcend death itself. For Naomi, ESTHER BLANKENSHIP was the embodiment of that love. Cut off from the living at the b...

100nehundred
A man carries his girlfriend in the left-hand breast pocket of his shirt. During World War II, a young soldier searches the houses and barns of the families with whom he grew up. An astronaut wonders whether she can adapt to life back on earth.

The Language of Law School
Anyone who has attended law school knows that it entails an important intellectual transformation, frequently referred to as "learning to think like a lawyer." This process, which subtly induces students to think and talk in radically new and different ways about conflicts, is largely accomplished in first-year law school classes where professors inculcate new attitudes toward spoken and written language. Elizabeth Mertz's book is the first study to truly delve into that language to reveal the complexities of how this process takes place. She concludes that the transformation law students undergo is as much a shift in how they approach language-how they talk and read and write-as in how they "think."
