Born Together—Reared Apart
The identical “Jim twins” were raised in separate families and met for the first time at age thirty-nine, only to discover that they both suffered tension headaches, bit their fingernails, smoked Salems, enjoyed woodworking, and vacationed on the same Florida beach. This example of the potential power of genetics captured widespread media attention in 1979 and inspired the Minnesota Study of Twins Reared Apart. This landmark investigation into the nature-nurture debate shook the scientific community by demonstrating, across a number of traits, that twins reared separately are as alike as those raised together. As a postdoctoral fellow and then as assistant director of the Minnesota Study...

She’s determined to find out why a murder victim felt compelled to apologize. And she can’t wait to splash the news of an arrest in 48-point type across the front page of the Galveston Gazette. Detective Peter Johnson has seen his share of human carnage. He knows from experience justice isn’t always that swift or simple. When the case goes cold right from the start, he clings to faith that the killer will eventually face a reckoning. But that’s not good enough for Kate. Vowing to find the answers he couldn’t, she quickly discovers the truth costs more than some people are willing to pay. Can Johnson convince her that justice is still worth fighting for, even if she can’t see it on this side of eternity? Look The Other Way is contemporary Christian suspense exploring questions of faith and justice in an imperfect world that desperately needs both.
Beach Walk
It's a warm spring evening in 1967. Abby Moore watches Charlie Egan as they dance to the seductive rhythm and blues. Then it was the Beatles. She didn't remember how they ended up in her apartment. Then he disappeared. He left no forwarding address. There were no goodbye messages. There was just an empty place in her heart and in her life. Thirty-six years later at a business conference on Hilton Head Island she spies a man who has the familiar walk and mannerisms that remind her of Charlie. Part of her wants it to be him, the other does not. Resurrecting the past would be painful and she's not sure she shouldn't just leave it there. Telling him what he left behind terrified her, but she desperately needed to know why he disappeared. When they meet on the beach they find themselves drawn together by the same magic that bound them for two glorious years in their story book youth. A mutual attraction that was so strong they could not imagine life without the other. This time they realize they must drive a stake into the past and kill it before they can enjoy the present.
More than an Actor
Well-bred, educated at Eton and the Central School for Speech and Drama in London, the youngest of four boys in an upper-class family, Peter H. was in many ways the embodiment of Englishness, from the way he took his tea to his love of Shakespeare. Encouraged by his wonderful mother, he chose a career in acting and, under the tutelage of Sir Laurence Olivier at the British National Theatre Company, became a stellar performer - a classical actor in the postwar era of gritty realism. W. Grey Champion's narrative, relying on contemporary accounts of people who knew Peter, tells the haunting story of the man himself - beset by misfortune and tragedy, which aggravated mental and physical disorders ending his life too soon. The author withholds Peter's stage name early on in order to accentuate his vision of a truly superlative person, who was much more than an actor. A compelling imaginative read that pays tribute to the memory of the venerable Jeremy Brett (Peter Jeremy William Huggins). - Linda Pritchard

Siege XV
The sovereignty of a small but crucial piece of land is at stake. Besieged and fought over fourteen times throughout its history, Jebel-Tarik, or Tarik’s Hill – named after an eighth-century Muslim invader – came to be known as the Rock of Gibraltar. This strategically located fortress controls the trade routes between Europe and North Africa, linking the Atlantic Ocean with the Mediterranean and the Middle East. Its possession can dictate the flow of commerce and industry in this volatile region. In a bid to expel the British, King Carlos of Spain allies with the French. Meanwhile, two young farm lads from Lancashire embark on separate journeys that lead them to converge on this contested ground, each playing a role in the unfolding drama. This is the story of the last great siege of Gibraltar, detailing the armies and navies involved and the heroic actions of soldiers and sailors on both sides. Who will prevail: Britain or Spain?
Intelligence: A Very Short Introduction
People value their powers of thinking and most of us are interested in why some people seem to drive a highly tuned Rolls Royce brain while others potter along with a merely serviceable Ford Fiesta. This Very Short Introduction describes what psychologists have discovered about how and why people differ in their thinking powers. The book takes readers from no knowledge about the science of human intelligence to a stage where they are able to make judgements for themselves about some of the key questions about human mental ability differences. Each chapter deals with a central issue that is both scientifically lively and of considerable general interest, and is structured around a diagram whi...
