Opening their pocketbooks as well their hearts, Darlene McCord and her husband Jim generously support the work of talented scientists at prestigious institutions such as The University of Iowa and Michigan State University. The McCords' giving enables leading edge research to be conducted in the fields of free radical biology and epigenetics. The Iowa City residents also continue to fund intensive studies that seek to find a cure for the Buruli Ulcer, a flesh-destroying bacterium that each year, globally, threatens thousands of children. The ulcer is tragic in many ways but none more disturbing than the fact that 80 percent of its victims are kids under the age of fifteen. While science has yet to discover the cause of the disease, researchers continue to search for an answer and that is where the children of the world need your help. It is critical that others step up and join the McCords in funding the treatment for afflicted children in more than thirty countries, including Ghana, Benin, Australia, Japan, the U.S. and regions in Central America. How important is your support? Once the Buruli Ulcer takes hold it can grow in size, from a boil, to the point where the only treatment option is amputation of a limb. The McCords are committed to finding the cause of, and cure for, the Buruli Ulcer. Proceeds from this book are being donated to the McCord Research Buruli Ulcer Foundation. There are also ways you can aid these children. To learn how you can help, visit www.mccordresearch.com Book jacket.

Classic Candy

America’s Favorite Sweets, 1950–80

By: Darlene Lacey

A beautifully illustrated pocket history of American candy in its heyday. Whether classics like Hershey's, Mars and M&Ms or trend-setters like PEZ and Atomic Fireballs, candy has a special place in the hearts and memories of most Americans, who to this day consume more than 600 billion pounds of it each year. In this colorful illustrated guide, Darlene Lacey looks at candy in America from a variety of angles, examining everything from chocolate to fruity sweets and from the simply packaged basics to gaudy product tie-ins. She examines the classic brands of the late twentieth century and what they mean, guiding us on a mouth-watering, sugar-fueled trip down a memory lane filled with signposts like Bazooka, Clark, Necco and Tootsie Roll.
