A Contemporary History of the U.S. Army Nurse Corps
Mary T. Sarnecky, who had first-hand knowledge about U.S. Army Nurse Corps inner workings as an active duty officer, presents her analysis documenting U.S. Army Nurse Corps from the early 1970s to the beginning of the 21st century in the Borden Institute's latest release, A Contemporary History of the U.S. Army Nurse Corps. She addresses a remarkable episode in the organization's evolution, a period characterized by a series of progressive steps empowering Nurse Corps officers to assume key command and leadership positions in Army Medical Department. "It is imperative that we review the "lessons learned" from this period in our nursing history and utilize the experiences, knowledge, and lead...
The Way of the Stars
Since medieval times, pilgrimages have been a popular religious or spiritual undertaking. Even today, between seventy and one hundred million people a year make pilgrimages, if not for expressly religious reasons, then for an alternative to secular goals and the preoccupation with consumption and entertainment characteristic of contemporary life. In The Way of the Stars, the journalist Robert Sibley, motivated at least in part by his own sense of discontent, recounts his walks on one of the most well-known pilgrimages in the Western world--the Camino de Santiago. A medieval route that crosses northern Spain and leads to the town of Santiago de Compostela, the Camino has for hundreds of years...
Firmament
Two girls murdered, two grieving fathers and one stranger who comes to the men offering a method of undetectable revenge. Mr Raine guides the men through the executions of the perpetrator and his lawyer after a hung jury sees the murderer freed on bail. Others involved in the conspiracy are also dealt with in the same way during the blood letting. It is only later that the fathers, Chambers and Osolo, discover Mr Raine carries a power older than time and is actually hunting his nemesis by using the grieving men to draw the other into the open. This is a story encompassing possession, the frailty of mankind, the power which exists beyond that which our puny minds can imagine and the eventual truth.
Grand Theft Auto
When General Motors and Chrysler declared bankruptcy in 2009 and immediately targeted thousands of dealerships for closure, tens of thousands of jobs and billions of dollars were on the line. Staring down two of the largest manufacturers in the world - as well as President Obama's Automotive Task Force - a determined triumvirate of car dealers banded together and went to Washington, D.C. to make their voices heard. Alan and Alison Spitzer's fast-paced memoir takes readers behind the scenes as "citizen's lobbyists" traverse throughout all of the major corridors of power in the nation's capital to make their case and bring justice to thousands of small business across the country.

The Fortune Tellers
Just as "spin" has taken over politics in America, so too has it come to define the long bull market on Wall Street. The booming trade in stocks, which has become a national obsession, has produced an insatiable demand for financial intelligence--and plenty of new, highly paid players eager to supply it. On television and the Internet, commentators and analysts are not merely reporting the news, they are making news in ways that provide huge windfalls for some investors and crushing losses for others. And they often traffic in rumor, speculation, and misinformation that hit the market at warp speed. Howard Kurtz, widely recognized as America's best media reporter, and the man who revealed th...
