Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. 1st Edition. 248 pages. Royal octavo (9 1/4" x 6") bound in original publisher's quarter green paper with silver lettering to spine over beige boards in original pictorial jacket. First edition. Most people don't run out the back door of a place called the Rainbow Bar in Dillon…, Minnesota, with someone they don't even know, get in a pickup truck, drive all day, and end up without any clothes on in a motel room. But that's what Texas Jack Carmine did with Linda Lobo. It was the kind of thing Jack was famous for doing. The people who knew Texas Jack Carmine - such as songwriter Bobby McGregor and Jack's uncle Vaughn Rhomer back in Iowa - called him God's only freeborn soul, rider of the summer roads, traveler of the far places. Where he was headed with dark-haired, long-legged Linda was not just back to his one-horse Texas ranch. It was somewhere he had never been: face to face with his own heart and the wild, strange things that live there. Border Music is the story of Jack and Linda, of long, hot days on a high desert ranch, nights wild with loving beneath West Texas skies, and times when their relationship tears them both apart. It's about Vietnam and the Midwest, and Vaughn Rhomer, an old man who tries in his own fumbling way to be free. It's about men and women who work hard and care intensely, about romance and the passion that you only find once.and you never stop wanting to find again. Condition: Jacket spine sunned else fine in in a near fine jacket.

Octavo (8 1/4" x 5 1/4") bound in original publisher's quarter black cloth with gilt lettering to spine in original pictorial jacket. First edition. In John Lutz's seventh mystery of this acclaimed series, disabled Florida P.I. Fred Carver is hired…by the redoubtable Hattie Evans to investigate the death of her seventy-year-old husband, Jerome. Although the doctors say he had a heart attack, an anonymous note claiming Jerome was murdered stirs Hattie's doubts about the cause of her husband's death. The Evanses lived in Solartown, one of the new breed of retirement communities catering to all the needs of its residents: golf course, health center, grocery store, recreation facility - everything but a morgue. An ideal kind of place; that is, until Carver begins to suspect that the good people of Solartown may be dying just a bit too soon. Is the community really as benign as it appears on the surface, or does it harbor a very methodical killer? Another death brings Carver and Hattie tragically closer to the secrets hidden within the seemingly serene, pastel-colored walls of Solartown's homes. But a torturous encounter with a sadistic and homicidal addict and a shattering series of events tell Carver that a conspiracy of good intentions and corporate greed may be to blame - and may also be the end of him.

Royal octavo (9 1/4" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's quarter black cloth with silver lettering to spine over grey boards in original pictorial jacket. First edition. Twelve years ago Jerry Kennedy delivered his first report, Kennedy for… the Defense, on being the classiest sleazy criminal lawyer in Boston, as Mack, his then-wife, called him. Seven years ago, Jerry called in again, with Penance for Jerry Kennedy. After that, things only got worse. Much worse. But in this latest dispatch, we learn that Jerry is digging himself out of a big hole, defending Billy Ryan - the longtime commissioner of Public Works has cut one shady deal too many. Battered Boston lawyers, like bargain diamonds, don't look so hot under strong white light - especially decades after they were newly cut and mounted. Though Jerry, brighter than most defense attorneys, has lost some of his luster, he knows enough to depend on friends - especially Bad-eye Mulvey, Cadillac Teddy, and one he didn't know he had: a heavy-hitter named Carlo. Jerry Kennedy also knows that the government can always get a public official if it really wants to - a situation made easier when a plea-bargaining crooked state legislator (Public Works Committee, natch) named Jack Bonaventre is in good voice. So Jerry digs in, looking hard for that edge to discredit the prosecution. The drama that follows in and around the Suffolk County Superior Court is vintage Higgins - the sort of stylish prose that prompted the London Sunday Times to say: "It used to be Henry James's town, now George V. Higgins has taken over Boston." condition: Remainder mark at head end pages else a near fine copy in like jacket.

Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. viii+272 pages with index. Octavo (8 3/4" x 5 3/4") bound in original publisher's green cloth with black lettering to spine. Reprint of the 1924 edition. Leonard Halford Dudley Buxton (1889-1939) had obtained a distinction in the Diploma in Anthropology at Oxford. He was appointed Demonstrator in Phy…sical Anthropology in 1913. Buxton was appointed Lecturer in Physical Anthropology in 1922 and University Reader in 1927, the first Reader in Physical Anthropology at Oxford. His work was assessed by one of his professional descendants: Buxton undertook some craniometrics and was, for example, involved in examining archaeological material from Crete and Mesopotamia. But he never became a slave to the approach like so many of his contemporaries. He was much more interested in general ethnology and recording the patterns of human variety around the world. . . . A particularly insightful piece of work [Arthur Thomson and Buxton] undertook was to examine the global distribution of variation in the nasal index. This showed a high correlation with the variability in the geographical distribution of atmospheric relative humidity and was perhaps the first occasion when anthropometrics were examined in a functional way. Condition: A very good to fine copy.

Royal octavo (9 1/4" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's quarter red cloth with gilt letting to sine over black boards in original pictorial jacket. First edition. Wilson follows his startling debut in last year's Nightwatcher with another…twisted tale of passion and murder in central Mississippi. Here, the rape/killing of teenager Julie Richardson ensnares first her next-door neighbor, Jack Mueller (a prime suspect even if he hadn't already, years ago, been accused of assaulting a teenager), and then, rapidly, Jack's wife Leigh Ann, her old flame Mark Ramsey, and Mark's half-brother, foursquare police chief Ray Hopkins. Mark's fight to clear Jack isn't helped by Jack's suicide or by the story's detour into an investigation of some neighborhood boys who may have witnessed the murder, and who may be acting out grisly rituals of their own. Appealing characters, strong situations, and fast-moving prose. But the story is cluttered by subplots that make the final revelation both incredible and obvious. Condition: Near fine in like jacket.

Anthropological… genetics is a field that has been in existence since the 1960s and has been growing within medical schools and academic departments, such as anthropology and human biology, ever since. With the recent developments in DNA and computer technologies, the field of anthropological genetics has been redefined. This volume deals with the molecular revolution and how DNA markers can provide insight into the processes of evolution, the mapping of genes for complex phenotypes and the reconstruction of the human diaspora. In addition to this, there are explanations of the technological developments and how they affect the fields of forensic anthropology and population studies, alongside the methods of field investigations and their contribution to anthropological genetics. This book brings together leading figures from the field to provide an introduction to anthropological genetics, aimed at advanced undergraduates to professionals, in genetics, biology, medicine and anthropology.

FRUG, GERALD E. City making: building communities without bui…lding walls. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1999, 1st printing number line ending in 1, 256pp., . "American metropolitan areas today are divided into neighborhoods of privilege and poverty, often along lines of ethnicity and race. As Gerald Frug shows, this divided and inhospitable urban landscape is not simply the result of individual choices about where to live or start a business. It is the product of government policies - and, in particular, the policies embedded in legal rules. Frug presents the first ever analysis of how legal rules shape modern cities and outlines a set of alternatives to bring down the walls that now keep city dwellers apart." "He describes how American law treats cities as subdivisions of states and shows how this arrangement has encouraged the separation of metropolitan residents into different, sometimes hostile groups. He explains the divisive impact of rules about zoning, redevelopment, land use, and the organization of such city services as education and policing. He pays special attention to the underlying role of anxiety about strangers, the widespread desire for good schools, and the pervasive fear of crime. Ultimately, Frug calls for replacing the current legal definition of cities with an alternative based on what he calls "community building"--An alternative that gives cities within the same metropolitan region incentives to forge closer links with each other." - CONTENTS: pt. 1.
