Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Imagine Abraham Lincoln walking the streets of Evanston, Illinois, on Easter weekend in 1955, just a man suddenly and magically free of the terrible burden of leading the nation through war. How will the Great Emancipator react to this new world, where he finds comfort and love in the arms of a young widow? How will learning of his own death affect his efforts to end the war when he suddenly returns to the horrors of 1865? ""Abraham Lincoln, A Novel Life"" answers these provocative questions in a singular depiction of emotional reality and temporal fantasy that brings America's most beloved president to life as never before. Tony Wolk tells this haunting tale from the perspectives of Lincoln and three women in his real and fictional life.

Good Friday

By: Tony Wolk

Joan Matcham has just discovered that she's pregnant by a man who died ninety years earlier: Abraham Lincoln. His brief sojourn to the Illinois of 1955 ended, he is returned to his own time and place, leaving Joan to deal with the consequences of their night together. Even as friendship, impending motherhood, and a new love revive Joan, she is haunted by recurring visions of the last week of Lincoln's life. Good Friday, the sequel to Abraham Lincoln: A Novel Life, is the second of Wolk's novels published by Ooligan Press, the teaching press at Portland State University. A remarkable work, Good Friday is sure to leave readers eagerly anticipating the final installment of Wolk's Lincoln trilogy.

Trends in Nutrition Research

By: Tony P. Starks

This work talks about the taking in and use of food and other nourishing material by the body. Nutrition is a 3-part process. First, food or drink is consumed. Second, the body breaks down the food or drink into nutrients. Third, the nutrients travel through the bloodstream to different parts of the body where they are used as fuel and for many other purposes. To give the body proper nutrition, a person has to eat and drink enough of the foods that contain key nutrients. This new book examines new research in this field which is belatedly receiving the proper attention.

Red Letter Christians

A Citizen's Guide to Faith and Politics

By: Tony Campolo

In today's political environment, who speaks for whom is not always clear. Over the past couple of decades, evangelical Christians have tended to be associated with the religious right and the most conservative positions of the Republican Party. Rebelling against this designation are those who prefer to be called Red Letter Christians, desiring to live out Jesus's words in the New Testament. Believing that Jesus is neither a Republican nor a Democrat, Red Letter Christians want to jumpstart a religious movement that will transcend partisan politics and concentrate on issues such as fighting poverty, caring for the environment, advancing peace, promoting strong families, and supporting a consistent ethic of life, all viewed as critical moral and biblical values. Into this arena of thought steps Tony Campolo, the powerful evangelist known for his passionate and prophetic sharing of the radical message of Jesus. In this book, Campolo examines many of the hot-button issues facing evangelicals from the perspective of Jesus's red-letter words in the Bible. No matter where you fall on the political spectrum, Campolo will make you think, pray, and act.

Op 'n stormsee

Ware verhale van Suid-Afrikaanse seereddings

By: Tony Weaver

Die waters om die Suid-Afrikaanse kuslyn word as van die gevaarlikste ter wêreld beskou. Wisselvallige weerstoestande, sleurstrome en fratsgolwe is van die faktore wat mense in lewensgevaar laat beland en soms tot tragedies lei. Ongeag die gevaar, is die dapper vrywilligers van die Nasionale Seereddingsinstituut egter altyd bereid om hul eie lewens op die spel te plaas om ander mense te red. Hulle sal dikwels in gure weer en in die donker en ysige koue uitvaar en alles in hul vermoë doen om mense veilig terug te bring. Die boek bevat 'n versameling stories oor waagmoedige reddingspogings gevul met drama en gevaar. Van brandende skepe tot haaiaanvalle en sinkende vistreilers – dit is die verhaal van die mens se ewige stryd teen die see.

Handbook of Cross-Cultural Neuropsychology

By: Elaine Fletcher-Janzen,Tony L. Strickland,Cecil R. Reynolds

Historically, relatively few investigations in neuropsychology have been sensitive to the analysis of cultural variables. This handbook will assist the neuropsychologist interested in cultural competence and help increase understanding of the link between cultural competence in assessment and intervention and good treatment outcomes. The handbook authors provide an in-depth discussion of the current status of multicultural training in neuropsychology; specific information on diverse groups (age, gender, ethnicity, etc.), assessment instruments, and clinical populations (HIV infected, seizure disorders, brain injuries); and unique analysis of immigration patterns, forensics, and psychopharmacology. This volume is the first to summarize the cultural data available in neuropsychology. A valuable resource for clinical neuropsychologists, school psychologists and rehabilitation professionals.
