ON THE BARBARY COAST

Strange Tales of San Francisco And Nearby Places

By: Ronald B. Reiss

The San Francisco Bay Area’s unique history and setting provides the background for this collection of nine stories of the strange and fantastic, all told with a meticulous eye for detail and a macabre imagination. On the Barbary Coast: A young man, newly mustered out of the Army, finds himself working as a cable car gripman in Prohibition-era San Francisco. He discovers that dark forces from the past are trying to drag him back to the dangerous Barbary Coast of sixty years earlier, with deadly results. Old Bill’s Secret: A lonely old man living in a flophouse in San Francisco’s Depression-era skid row has a mysterious secret, one which comes back after thirty years to claim his life. The Line: A young architect in Victorian San Francisco discovers that his attraction to a beautiful, mysterious stranger has a disturbingly sinister aspect. The Apartment House: An elderly veteran’s bizarre secret, dating from the South Pacific in WWII, is somehow connected to strange, unexplainable occurrences in a converted Santa Cruz Victorian. The Mark: After his aunt passes away in 1928, her favorite nephew returns to San Francisco for her funeral, only to discover a shocking surprise in her Russian Hill home. The Red Maelstrom: After a young North Beach beatnik commits suicide, the power of her last painting develops terrifying proportions. Unforeseen Condition: A potentially expensive problem arises in the excavation for a new high-rise building in San Francisco’s burgeoning South of Market District. In searching for a solution, a construction project manager discovers ancient forces with awesome powers that change his life forever. The Satan Killer: With nods to H.P. Lovecraft and Raymond Chandler, this tale features a hard-boiled Berkeley psychologist who helps the police investigate a series of disappearances in 1954, only to discover a nemesis with powers far beyond the physical world. Ramona’s Face: A young hippie living in a 1966 Haight-Ashbury flat discovers an unwelcome roommate: the ghost of a former tenant, on a quest to find its own freedom.

The Neuropsychology of Attention

By: Ronald A. Cohen

It has been 15 years since the original publication of Neuropsychology of Attention. At the time of its publication, attention was a construct that had long been of theoretical interest in the field of psychology and was receiving increased research by cognitive scientists. Yet, attention was typically viewed as a nuisance variable; a factor that needed to be accounted for when assessing brain function, but of limited importance in its own right. There is a need for a new edition of this book within Neuropsychology to present an updated and integrated review of what is know about attention, the disorders that affect it, and approaches to its clinical assessment and treatment. Such a book will provide perspectives for experimental neuropsychological study of attention and also provide clinicians with insights on how to approach this neuropsychological domain.

I Love You, Ronnie

The Letters of Ronald Reagan to Nancy Reagan

By: Nancy Reagan,Ronald Reagan

No matter what else was going on in his life or where he was--travelling to make movies for G.E., in the California governor's office, at the White House, or on Air Force One, and sometimes even from across the room--Ronald Reagan wrote letters to Nancy Reagan, to express his love, thoughts, and feelings, and to stay in touch. Through letters and reflections, the characters, personalities, and private lives of a president and his first lady are revealed. Nancy Reagan comments on the letters and writes with love and insight about her husband and the many phases of their life together.
