Greek Grammar

By: Herbert Weir Smyth,Gordon M. Messing

Sponsored by the Department of Classics of Harvard University, a revised edition of the late Professor Smyth's A Greek Grammar for Colleges is now available. All necessary corrections have been made, and the book retains the form which has long made it the most complete and valuable work of its kind. In this descriptive grammar the author offers a treatment of Greek syntax which is exceptionally rich as well subtle and varied.

Restart

By: Gordon Korman

The amazing New York Times bestseller about what you can do when life gives you a second chance. Chase's memory just went out the window. Chase doesn't remember falling off the roof. He doesn't remember hitting his head. He doesn't, in fact, remember anything. He wakes up in a hospital room and suddenly has to learn his whole life all over again . . . starting with his own name. He knows he's Chase. But who is Chase? When he gets back to school, he sees that different kids have very different reactions to his return. Some kids treat him like a hero. Some kids are clearly afraid of him. One girl in particular is so angry with him that she pours her frozen yogurt on his head the first chance she gets. Pretty soon, it's not only a question of who Chase is -- it's a question of who he was . . . and who he's going to be. From the #1 bestselling author of Swindle and Slacker, Restart is the spectacular story of a kid with a messy past who has to figure out what it means to get a clean start.

Respect Yourself

Stax Records and the Soul Explosion

By: Robert Gordon

The story of Stax Records unfolds like a Greek tragedy. A white brother and sister build a record company that becomes a monument to racial harmony in 1960's segregated south Memphis. Their success is startling, and Stax soon defines an international sound. Then, after losses both business and personal, the siblings part, and the brother allies with a visionary African-American partner. Under integrated leadership, Stax explodes as a national player until, Icarus-like, they fall from great heights to a tragic demise. Everything is lost, and the sanctuary that flourished is ripped from the ground. A generation later, Stax is rebuilt brick by brick to once again bring music and opportunity to the people of Memphis. Set in the world of 1960s and '70s soul music, Respect Yourself is a story of epic heroes in a shady industry. It's about music and musicians -- Isaac Hayes, Otis Redding, Sam and Dave, Wilson Pickett, the Staple Singers, and Booker T. and the M.G.'s, Stax's interracial house band. It's about a small independent company's struggle to survive in a business world of burgeoning conglomerates. And always at the center of the story is Memphis, Tennessee, an explosive city struggling through heated, divisive years. Told by one of our leading music chroniclers, Respect Yourself brings to life this treasured cultural institution and the city that created it.

Parasitic Disease in Clinical Practice

Parasitic Disease in Clinical Practice

By: Gordon C. Cook

Parasitic Disease in Clinical Practice is the sixth monograph to appear in the now established and flourishing Bloomsbury Series in Clinical Science. Written by a distinguished authority in the field, the book gives a comprehensive and detailed description of parasitic infections and their clinical consequences. Such infections are no longer confined to tropical parts of the world and now have a widespread distribution. Rapid advances are being made in understanding their epidemiology and in diagnosing and treating particular infections. Current literature is largely directed to the parasites, their characteristics and their isolation; a clinical review is clearly needed. This has now been provided, for the author's stated objective is to "inculcate a greater awareness, understanding and appreciation of human parastic disease in the minds of all clinicians". London, March 1990 Jack Tinker Preface Homo sapiens has always existed in a finely balanced equilibrium with a great diversity of infective agents, almost all of them of great antiquity. Many must have exerted a profound effect on the evolution of the human genome. While the average physician is usually aware of potentially pathogenic viruses, bacteria (and rickettsia), and to a lesser extent fungi, hislher knowledge of protozoan and helminthic infections is frequently imperfect and often rudimentary.

Hell's Heroes

By: John Gordon

At the beginning we had all been sworn to secrecy; this was never to be spoken about outside of the group. After 35 years I feel I can now tell my story as it happened. This is the first time I or anyone from the ground has spoken about any of the tasks my unit had to endure. What is written here is based on my personal experiences in the armed forces. Some fact, some fiction. Out of my respect for the men I served with I have kept names accurate and descriptions true to character. After reading my story, it is your choice what you believe. A veteran’s tale: exhilarating, heart-breaking and loyal to the cause. This is part one of my story.

Lies Among Thieves

By: Tina McKenzie Gordon Davis

Being taught my entire life that the man and woman of God is to be reverenced and acknowledged forever rings clearly in my head. Sunday after Sunday, they enter the church adorned in their signature robes, representing an appearance of their holiness with God. What a magnificent sight to behold, but one must also remember the saying "all that glitters isn't gold." While they represent the gifts of righteousness robed in the pulpit, they also possess the unrobed worldly characteristics of man. This pulpit pack found that concealing their actions outside the church could and would always require expertise in keeping their secrets from everyone, other than those playing the same games themselves. Keeping score in the eyes of fellas only added intrigue and excitement of the game until one of them unexpectantly wanted to change the game and the rules. Jealousy, causing backstabbing, began to show up as the fellas attempted to keep their upmost secrets that would destroy not just their churches but also their marriages. While the battle to maintain secrecy continues, someone desiring to settle a personal score executes a plan, which not only settles her score but also exposes their many years of secrets of lying, cheating, stealing, and sexual immorality of all sitting within the pulpit.

Plato's Erotic World

From Cosmic Origins to Human Death

By: Jill Gordon

Plato's entire fictive world is permeated with philosophical concern for Eros, well beyond the so-called erotic dialogues. Several metaphysical, epistemological and cosmological conversations - Timaeus, Cratylus, Parmenides, Theaetetus and Phaedo - demonstrate that Eros lies at the root of the human condition and that properly guided Eros is the essence of a life well lived. This book presents a holistic vision of Eros, beginning with the presence of Eros at the origin of the cosmos and the human soul, surveying four types of human self-cultivation aimed at good guidance of Eros and concluding with human death as a return to our origins. The book challenges conventional wisdom regarding the 'erotic dialogues' and demonstrates that Plato's world is erotic from beginning to end: the human soul is primordially erotic and the well-cultivated erotic soul can best remember and return to its origins, its lifelong erotic desire.
