This tongue-in-cheek celebration boldly goes where no book has gone before--right into the heart, soul, and "easy-fit" wardrobe of the generation that invented sex, drugs, and rock and roll to reveal exactly how 76 million baby boomers are handling middle age. Line drawings.

In the tradition of "Lorenzo's Oil" comes a brutally searing story of one mother's quest to save her child's life. Transcends the subject of illness to become an inspiring meditation on the enduring nature of love.--"Us Weekly.

The Gay Man's Guide to Heterosexuality offers a humorous look at the strange and often inexplicable habits of heterosexuals. This book not only tells you everything you need to know about the straight world (and then some), but answers questions that have probably been plaguing you for years, like: - What are they carrying in all those minivans? - Why are their dogs so big? - Why are they afraid of bright colors? - Why do show tunes scare them? - How do you know when you're in one of their neighborhoods? As well as the perennial conversation stopper: - What do heterosexuals do in bed together? You never know when you're going to bump into a heterosexual--today they are everywhere--but with this handy guide, you'll be prepared for any encounter.

Humorist Cathy Crimmins has written a deeply personal, wrenching, and often hilarious account of the effects of traumatic brain injury, not only on the victim, in this case her husband, but on the family. When her husband Alan is injured in a speedboat accident, Cathy Crimmins reluctantly assumes the role of caregiver and learns to cope with the person he has become. No longer the man who loved obscure Japanese cinema and wry humor, Crimmins' husband has emerged from the accident a childlike and unpredictable replica of his former self with a short attention span and a penchant for inane cartoons. Where Is the Mango Princess? is a breathtaking account that explores the very nature of personality-and the complexities of the heart. Outstanding Book Award Winner from the American Society of Journalists and Authors
