SEPARATED ANGELS is the powerful, true story of much publicized twins Megan & Shannon Fanning; born joined at the abdomen & separated in a tedious surgical procedure. This book details the emotional struggles experienced by the family during & following the pregnancy, birth & separation. The necessary decisions made by the parents, & the changes in prognosis made by the medical professionals, add to the emotional drama of the story. The accounts of faith shown & support received along with the seemingly miraculous final outcome make SEPARATED ANGELS especially inspirational. The book is written in easy-to-read style, with 6 photo & 16 hand-drawn chapter illustrations. To that end, technical medical terms are kept to a minimum. The text is suitable for most readers (ages 9 & up), & should not be offensive to any special interest group. Although not a religious book, it does offer a strong appeal to certain religious groups, as well as all those interested in a good story with a happy ending. It is the only true story of conjoined twins written by one of the parents. Published by Storybook Press, Inc., P.O. Box 4438, Naperville, IL 60540-4438, (708) 983-7717. $11.95 Retail.

Conjoined twins have long been a subject of fantasy, fascination, and freak shows. In this first collection of its kind, Millie-Christine McKoy, African American twins born in 1851, and Daisy and Violet Hilton, English twins born in 1908, speak for themselves through memoirs that help us understand what it is like to live physically joined to someone else. Conjoined Twins in Black and White provides contemporary readers with the twins’ autobiographies, the first two “show histories” to be republished since their original appearance, a previously unpublished novella, and a nineteenth-century medical examination, each of which attempts to define these women and reveal the issues of race, gender, and the body prompted by the twins themselves. The McKoys, born slaves, were kidnapped and taken to Britain, where they worked as entertainers until they were reunited with their mother in an emotional chance encounter. The Hiltons, cast away by their horrified mother at birth, worked the carnival circuit as vaudeville performers until the WWII economy forced them to the burlesque stage. The hardships, along with the triumphs, experienced by these very different sister sets lend insight into our fascination with conjoined twins.

Twins is set in the interior of Mato Grosso and the cities of Rio de Janeiro and Brasilia. In the plot, two newborn twin sisters are sold by their mother and therefore separated at birth. The girls' father, learning of the deal, is killed while he tries to prevent it. The plot, based on these fatalities, is full of seemingly occasional situations that mark the lives of mother and daughters until the inevitable reunion occurs. The story, which begins in the mid-1980s, shows how spirituality can interfere with our earthly lives and teaches us that coincidences, synchronicity, and coincidences are nothing more than the application of perfect cosmic laws that God created for help us on the trajectory of our evolution. The ignorance of spirituality; however, often prevents us from having a more real vision of life and how generous it is, always favoring our growth. After all, life collaborates with our development, but it requires each one to do their part.

A survey of the development of British military aviation from 1903 to 1914, revealing the consequences of its annexation by the state as a branch of armaments as an underlying cause of aircraft inadequacies on the outbreak of war. A mine of information, drawing on an impressive range of archives. It will become an important point of reference. ENGLISH HISTORICAL REVIEW This book aims to demonstrate how the crisis evident in British military aviation in the early years of the First World War was inherent in the entire development of aviation in the years preceding the conflict. After outlining the work of the early pioneers and the growth of an aviation industry as a branch of armaments, Dr Driver considers the objectives of the War Office in increasingly seeking to divert design development to their research establishment at Farnborough. He shows how the resultant virtual state monopoly in designand procurement had disastrous consequences for aircraft innovation and development, suffocating both competition and initiative, and leading to the maintenance of inadequate aircraft by the Royal Flying Corps following the outbreak of war. The continuing dispute and its culmination in the "Fokker Scourge" controversy of 1915-1916 graphically characterise the strained development of military-industrial relations in this area. Dr HUGH DRIVER gained an MA in War Studies from King's College London, and a D.Phil in modern history at Oriel College, Oxford.

When the Bolshevik Revolution broke out in October 1917, much of Central Asia was still ruled by autonomous rulers such as the Emir of Bukhara and the Khan of Khiva. By 1920 the khanates had been transformed into People's Republics. In 1924, Stalin re-drew the frontiers of the region on ethno-linguistic lines creating, amongst other statelets, the Soviet Socialist Republic of Uzbekistan - the land of the Uzbeks. But the Turkic Uzbeks were not the only significant ethnic group within the new Uzbekistan's frontiers. The Persian-speaking Tajiks formed a considerable part of the population. This book describes how, often in the teeth of Uzbek opposition, the Tajiks gained, first an autonomous oblast (administrative region) within Uzbekistan, then an autonomous republic, and finally, in 1929, the status of a full Soviet Union Republic. Once the Tajiks had been granted a territory of their own, they began to strive for a national identity and to create national pride. Their new government had not only to survive the civil war that followed the revolution but then to build an entirely new country in an immensely inhospitable terrain. New frontiers had to be wrested from neighbours, and a new cultural identity, 'national in form but socialist in content', had to be created, which was to be an example to other Persian speakers in the region. Paul Bergne has produced the first documentation of how the idea of a Tajik state came into being and offers a vivid history of the birth of a nation.
