CEREBRAL CIRCUS gives authentic insight into neurological training and research, told in the age-old scenario of the unpolished country boy versus the city slicker. The protagonist is Allen Flint Childress, a half-breed Cherokee lad raised in the infertile red clay hills of North Louisiana. He was drawn into medicine by his love and respect of Dr. Homer Baines Shirley, a tough old country doctor who pulled Allen into the world by a risky traumatic forceps delivery one cold December night in 1967. A straight-A scholarship student at L.S.U., Allen sailed through the premed curriculum by an indefinable instinct and ambition for neurology; attempting as a freshman to register early for senior neuroanatomy. He succeeded in this improbable drive through a risky affair with his faculty advisor, an attractive older woman. Through hard work and scholarship aid, he graduated from Cornell University Medical College in 1991, then went on to internship at Bellevue Hospital in New York, a 3,500 teaching hospital with approximately 1000 trainees. When Allen became a resident physician in neurology, he became embroiled in a longstanding conflict with Dr. Bertrand O. Stanford, senior professor of neurology; who was performing unethical dangerous neurological research because of his ambition to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine. But what could Allen, a mere neurology resident do against a senior professor? Allen gained a modicum of courage when he asked himself, What would old Dr. Homer Shirley who delivered me, do if he were in my shoes?

A Powerful Road Map for Surpassing Everyone’s Expectations Break through your self-imposed limitations by learning how your own brain can be your biggest obstacle—or your greatest ally. You’d expect your brain to be an always-reliable ally in your quest for a successful, satisfying life, but surprisingly the opposite is usually true. That’s because your brain is pretty much the same model your ancestors were using thousands of years ago when mere survival was everyone’s primary goal. It tells you now what it told them then: Play it safe. Avoid risk. Evade confrontation. Don’t venture outside the territory you already know. And never break the habits that have gotten you this far. Coming at just the right time to help you deal with the growing demands of our pressure-packed, fast-changing world, Robert Cooper’s Get Out of Your Own Way helps you understand what’s going on in that head of yours. Once you know what really drives you, you can switch off the counterproductive parts of your brain, engage the helpful parts, and set out on the path to accomplishing what everyone else thinks you can’t. Based on more than two decades of worldwide research, Get Out of Your Own Way shows you the five keys for making the choices that let you engage and triumph over the realities of today’s world: • Direction, not motion • Focus, not time • Capacity, not conformity • Energy, not effort • Impact, not intentions Filled with wonderful stories—about everything from the note written by one of the author’s ancestors upon leaving Dublin for America in 1829 (“On the horizon is where hope lives . . . I am going there”) to the unlikely exploits of the world record–setting Jamaican bobsled team—this groundbreaking book confirms that the next frontier is not only ahead of you, it’s inside of you . . . and what everyone else thinks is impossible isn’t.

A mysterious novel by the author of the international bestseller SOPHIE'S WORLD. A chance meeting on the Fijian island of Taveuni is the trigger for a fascinating and mysterious novel that intertwines the stories of John Spooke, an English author who is grieving for his dead wife; Frank Andersen, a Norwegian evolutionary biologist estranged from his wife Vera; and an enigmatic Spanish couple, Ana and Jose, who are absorbed in their love for each other. Why does Ana bear such a close resemblance to the model for Goya's famous Maja paintings? What is the significance of the Joker as he steps out of his pack of cards? As the action moves from Fiji to Spain, from the present to the past, unfolding further stories within the stories, the novel reveals an astonishing richness and complexity. As bold and imaginative in its sweep as Sophie's World, it shows again that Jostein Gaarder's unique and special gift is to make us wonder at the awe-inspiring mystery of the universe.

The Lost Steps (Les Pas perdus) is Andri Breton's first collection of critical and polemical essays. Composed between 1917 and 1923, these pieces trace his evolution during the years when he was emerging as a central figure in French (and European) intellectual life. They chronicle his tumultuous passage through the Dada movement, proclaim his explosive views on Modernism and its heroes, and herald the emergence of Surrealism itself. Along the way, we are given Breton's serious commentaries on his Modernist predecessors, Guillaume Apollinaire and Alfred Jarry, followed by his not-so-serious Dada manifestoes. Also included are portraits of Marcel Duchamp, Francis Picabia, and Breton's mysterious friend Jacques Vachi, as well as a crisis-by-crisis account of his dealing with Dada's leader, Tristan Tzara. Finally, Breton offers a first glimpse of Surrealism, the movement that was forever after identified with his name and that stands as a defining force in twentieth-century aesthetics. Mark Polizzotti, editorial director of David R. Godine, Publisher, is the author of Revolution of the Mind: The Life of Andri Breton. He is also the translator of Jean Echenoz's Double Jeopardy (Nebraska 1994) and Cherokee (Nebraska 1994) and of Andri Breton's Conversations: The Autobiography of Surrealism. Mary Ann Caws is Distinguished Professor of French at Hunter College and at the City University of New York. Her most recent work is Robert Motherwell: What Art Holds. She is the translator of Andri Breton's Mad Love (Nebraska 1987) and Communicating Vessels (Nebraska 1990).

So you have to go way down to experience this. Its the dream you dont want to wake from, the long kiss goodnight. Its like the way you finally get close enough, and nothing is so very wrong after all. The patience and the smoothing overthats what Im talking about. Im talking about a love affair and peeking out of the corner of your eye to see if shes still there. For two college students, 1990 is the start of a new life. Their world is one of wonder, love, and sheer potential. Monica, the homecoming queen and captain of the cheerleading squad, knows that the future is bright and exciting. When she meets Peel, a self-destructive artist and poet who seeks a life of danger, she cant begin to imagine anything but happily ever after. What happens next is almost inevitable: a brief yet intense love affair that makes a lasting impression on everyone who knows them. First among these is Zog, a longtime friend who would become the author of their unauthorized biography. Painstakingly researched, their affair comes to passionate life through love letters and transcripts of taped interviews, fueled by Zogs obsessive desire to know everything about what really happened between them. Monica met Peel when she was twenty, and the world was hopeful. When she loses him just nine years later, his death redefines her world.
