Newsweek Condensed Books In His Image Of Wolves and Men The Psychological Society The Faustball Tunnel Where the Wing's Grow
Author: David Rorvik, Barry Holstun Lopez, Martin L. Gross, John Hammond Moore, Agnes DeMille

In His Image: The Cloning of a Man by David Rorvik — Rorvik has written a spellbinding account of his search for a doctor willing to risk the controversial procedure of the cloning of the first human. The author does not take a moral stand. He knew from the beginning that, if he were ever able to report a successful cloning, others would denounce... more » it, and still others would doubt it ever happened. Rorvik has brought to this fascinating story the skilled reporter's objectivity and ability to portray graphically every detail. The ultimate question, whether the cloning of human beings should be allowed, remains with the reader.

Of Wolves and Men by Barry Holstun Lopez

An immensely talented and perceptive writer shows us not only the wolf of the scientist but the wolf of the Eskimo and the Indian, the wolf of the wolf killer, the wolf of the imagination; werewolves, feral children, the wolf of folklore and fable; and in doing so creates a compelling picture of both wolf as animal and the wolf that man has created. With the vision of a poet, he sorts truth from untruth.

The Psychological Society: The Impact and the Failure of Psychiatry, Psychotherapy, Psychoanalysis and the Psychological Revolution by Martin L. Gross

From the best-selling author of The Doctors and The Brain Watchers, in his new book shows the failure of psychotherapy in the treatment of both neuroses and psychoses and the very harmful influence that so much of psychiatry and psychology has had on our society. This book is both convincing and disquieting. It has received advance praise from leading psychiatrists and psychologists who consider it an important document in the fight between the forces of reason and antiscience within the profession.

The Faustball Tunnel: German POWs in America and Their Great Escape by John Hammond Moore

He relates the exciting tale of a daring prison break. Two days before Christmas, 1944, twenty-five German prisoners of war broke out of their Arizona prison camp and crawled their way to freedom along a 178-foot tunnel dug right under the watchful eyes of their American jailers. On Christmas Day they were roaming the American Southwest striving to reach Mexico and, they hoped, freedom. From recently declassified materials and extensive interviews with participants, the author relates one of the rare untold dramas of World War II.

Where the Wing's Grow: A Memoir of Childhood by Agnes DeMille

She ably demonstrates that when it comes to remembering she has more to remember than most, and in this book, America's first lady of dance weaves a tapestry of childhood's mystery and magic against a backdrop of turn-of-the-century America. This is an exquisite family memoir that rejoices in the eternal mysteries of childhood and captures the beauty, elegance, and pride of an age-gone-by like a light that can be seen long after it has been extinguished.
