1906 edition, illustrated. Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens is a novel by J. M. Barrie, published in 1906; it is one of four major literary works by Barrie featuring the widely known literary character he created, Peter Pan. Most of the text of Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens was included as chapters 13–18 of Barrie's earlier novel The Little White Bird, published in 1902. The Little White Bird was published as a novel for adult readers; whereas Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens was published specifically as a children's book. However, that the book is not so much a children's book as one for art collectors thanks to the 1906 edition's illustrations by Arthur Rackham. Views: 536

Robin Light's client was in his prime: mid-twenties and all-American. But Bryan Hayes was no happy-go-lucky guy. For four months he had been looking for his sister, Melissa, a college sophomore who waved goodbye outside her dorm and disappeared without a trace. Everyone from the university's head of security to the dean and the police have their theories about what happened to her. And so does Bryan. He's blaming it on frat boy charmer, Tommy West, Melissa's ex-boyfriend.But Robin is developing a theory of her own. If Melissa met with foul play, why did she take her clothes, her purse, and her cash? If it was such a well-planned vanishing act why is Tommy so reluctant to talk? And why does Jill Evans, Melissa's best friend and fatal victim of a bizarre accident, keep figuring into the picture? It's all as baffling as Melissa's disappearance. Combing the campus for clues, Robin has suddenly found herself moving to the head of the class, and closer to the most challenging mystery of her career. Where it will lead she is afraid to guess, but the secret pasts of a surprising array of suspects are about to come to light, placing Robin in deadly jeopardy. . .and forcing her into a desperate gamble for the truth.From Publishers WeeklyRobin Light, pet-shop owner and amateur detective last seen in The Scent of Murder (1997), returns in a missing-persons case. College student Bryan Hayes hires Robin to look into the disappearance of his sister, Melissa, four months earlier. Robin takes to the local college campus at Syracuse to interview Melissa's former suitemates; her boyfriend, Tommy West; and psychology professor Fell, all of whom link Melissa's disappearance to the death a year earlier of her close friend Jill Evans. Complicating matters is the terminal illness of Bryan and Melissa's mother, who is determined that her daughter be found. Robin is also tolerating a rocky stage in her romantic relationship with ex-cop George, who has taken in his streetwise 14-year-old nephew. Although tightly written, stereotypes abound as the college students live on pizza, and George, who is black, has a run-in with a white cop over his nephew. As the tale progresses, Robin finds herself threatened by Tommy's wealthy father and uncovers some sordid information about Tommy and Bryan. The plot ends with a typical sleuth-meets-killer-and-solves-crime finale. Copyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Stories of famously eccentric Princetonians abound--such as that of chemist Hubert Alyea, the model for The Absent-Minded Professor, or Ralph Nader, said to have had his own key to the library as an undergraduate. Or the "Phantom of Fine Hall," a figure many students had seen shuffling around the corridors of the math and physics building wearing purple sneakers and writing numerology treatises on the blackboards. The Phantom was John Nash, one of the most brilliant mathematicians of his generation, who had spiraled into schizophrenia in the 1950s. His most important work had been in game theory, which by the 1980s was underpinning a large part of economics. When the Nobel Prize committee began debating a prize for game theory, Nash's name inevitably came up--only to be dismissed, since the prize clearly could not go to a madman. But in 1994 Nash, in remission from schizophrenia, shared the Nobel Prize in economics for work done some 45 years previously.
Economist and journalist Sylvia Nasar has written a biography of Nash that looks at all sides of his life. She gives an intelligent, understandable exposition of his mathematical ideas and a picture of schizophrenia that is evocative but decidedly unromantic. Her story of the machinations behind Nash's Nobel is fascinating and one of very few such accounts available in print (the CIA could learn a thing or two from the Nobel committees). Views: 532

LARRY NIVEN’S KNOWN SPACE IS AFLAME WITH WAR!Once upon a time, in the very earliest days of
interplanetary exploration, an unarmed human
vessel was set upon by a warship from the
planet Kzin—home of the fiercest warriors in
Known Space. This was a fatal mistake for the
Kzinti, of course; they learned the hard way that
the reason humanity had decided to study war
no more was that humans were so very, very
good at it.And thus began THE MAN-KZIN WARS. Now,
several centuries later, the Kzinti are about to
get yet another lesson in why it pays to be polite
to those hairless monkeys from planet Earth. Views: 528
An astonishing historical novel in the tradition of Schindler's List—evoking powerfully the danger and heroism of the Nazi resistance.What is the price of acting morally in a time of great evil, when sin and necessity seem twinned? Saints and Villains is a strikingly resonant novel that dramatizes this painful dilemma through the fictional re-creation of the life of Dietrich Bonhoeffer. This emblematic figure risked his life—and finally lost it—through his participation in the failed plot to assassinate Hitler and topple the Nazi regime. In a gripping and sweeping narrative that moves from Berlin to London to New York City, encompassing shattering historical events, clandestine meetings, perilous missions abroad, and eventual imprisonments and death, Denise Giardina brings to life an instance of shining courage in the charnel house that was Europe in the Second World War. A novel that is bold in conception and utterly convincing in its powers of... Views: 527
