The ill effects of a baby’s exposure to drugs and
alcohol while in the womb are demonstrated in this
essential reference with cutting-edge information
from the fields of medicine, neuroscience, and
child psychology. These findings posit that many of
the learning and behavior problems seen in
children—from poor school performance to
patterns of impulsivity often diagnosed as ADHD—
are both treatable and preventable. The book first
traces the history of fetal malformation back to the
time of Aristotle, then presents a resounding call for
integrated systems of care for high-risk children and
their families. Methods for applying behavior
management and treatment techniques are
included for health care practitioners, social
workers, early childhood intervention specialists,
special education teachers, and parents, whether
for use at home, at school, or in the clinical setting.

A highball comedy of manners, this novel is a return
to the days of too much gin and too many ciga-
rettes. Hapless reporter Roosevelt P. Lane lives in
the grandeur and glamour of New York circa
1953—an era of quiz-panel programs, debutantes
and dinner jackets, communists, pickpockets, and
artists manqué—where he finds the city to be in-
credibly huge until he attempts to date two
women at once. Now he must decide which is the
one for him: Harley Molloy, the lovable but
ingenuous Hollywood starlet, or Claire Bannerman,
the erudite, freethinking progressive who is about
to land him in a world of intrigue. Dripping with
vintage culture, this is a highly entertaining story
of a bygone age, full of humor and romance
that moves along as quickly as the famed New
York hustle.

A natural history primer packed with travel ideas,
this tour of 26 old-growth forests—one in each state
east of the Mississippi River and all open to the
public—aims to dispel the misconception that
these forests are located only on the west coast.
With intelligence and lyricism, the book highlights
the adventure in getting to each forest and what
visitors will find when they arrive. From giant hem-
lock groves in Pennsylvania to a lonely stand of
pines in Wisconsin, each journey provides face-to-
face experiences with forests containing majestic
trees and a rich diversity of life. As an impassioned
plea to preserve and support the few untouched
stretches of forest that remain, the discussion
touches upon the perseverance of these locations
despite modern development, as well as the vital
link between old-growth forests and humanity’s
own survival.
