There are the enemies you know about, and the ones you don't... Coriolanus is a secret and subversive organization composed of former intelligence operatives who have gone rogue. Their agents are a shadowy cabal of spies, con-artists, embezzlers, forgers, burglars, and assassins, all dedicated to a single mission-bringing down the United States of America. To stop the deadly conspiracy in its tracks, Tallifierro and Fasbender-an unlikely pair of CIA officers-must unravel the mysteries surrounding a long-dead double-agent known only as "Q." Any move could be their last, because they're up against the Double-Sided Man.
Published both by major U.S. houses as well as independently by the author, this book has been reissued at least every ten years since its initial appearance in 1976 by Jonathan David Publishers, Middle Village, NY. Its success has been remarkable, so much so, in fact, that schools and libraries have repeatedly had to reorder after their copies were stolen by patrons, students, and teachers! It continues to seem relevant to readers during all those years because society and government are always saddled with the same types depicted in this book. Teachers have frequently used this book as a supplementary text in history courses. The text is fast-moving, at times conversational, and never packed with dry dates and treaties and other aspects of history books that often turn off young readers. This is the first appearance of Madmen of History as an ebook, and the second ebook by the author. Read it chapter by chapter--there is no absolute order required--but avoid reading it at bedtime because you may not sleep well!

One of the leading textbooks in its field, Bringing Fossils to Life applies paleobiological principles to the fossil record while detailing the evolutionary history of major plant and animal phyla. It incorporates current research from biology, ecology, and population genetics, bridging the gap between purely theoretical paleobiological textbooks and those that describe only invertebrate paleobiology and that emphasize cataloguing live organisms instead of dead objects. For this third edition Donald R. Prothero has revised the art and research throughout, expanding the coverage of invertebrates and adding a discussion of new methodologies and a chapter on the origin and early evolution of life.
