Book excerpt: Tap Dancing on a Hot Skillet is Gabrielle's debut memoir-a coming of age story about growing up in a Jewish family of six in the Deep South of the 1950s and '60s. As if navigating the racially charged atmosphere of the times is not challenge enough, the secrets her father has brought into his marriage causes him to swing from loving to unpredictably volatile at the spin of a dime. As the oldest, her desire to protect her three younger siblings from the chaos and injustices inside and outside her home is made harder by an emotionally absent mother. Using a combination of personal stories set against a backdrop of cultural context-the Civil Rights movement, the Vietnam war, and pop culture references of films and music (from Elvis to the Beatles)-Gabrielle creates a scaffolding by which to hang the evolving angst of the '60s contrasted with the naiveté of the '50s told through the eyes of a young person caught at the center. The stories are told with a keen sense of visual detail, southern wit, and an authentic adolescent voice that helps the characters dance off the page and sit right along next to you.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to explore the detectable properties of a material to the parameters of bond and non-bond involved and to clarify the interdependence of various properties. This book is composed of four parts; Part I deals with the formation and relaxation dynamics of bond and non-bond during chemisorptions with uncovering of the correlation among the chemical bond, energy band and surface potential barrier (3B) during reactions; Part II is focused on the relaxation of bonds between atoms with fewer neighbors than the ideal in bulk with unraveling of the bond order-length-strength (BOLS) correlation mechanism, which clarifies the nature difference between nanostructures and bulk of the same substance; Part III deals with the relaxation dynamics of bond under heating and compressing with revealing of rules on the temperature-resolved elastic and plastic properties of low-dimensional materials; Part IV is focused on the asymmetric relaxation dynamics of the hydrogen bond (O:H-O) and the anomalous behavior of water and ice under cooling, compressing and clustering. The target audience for this book includes scientists, engineers and practitioners in the area of surface science and nanoscience.

Book excerpt: One of the Boston Globe's Best Crime Novels of the Year! One of Suspense Magazine's Best Books of 2013! Since private investigator Cal Weaver’s teenage son died in a tragic accident, Cal and his wife have drifted apart. Cal is mired in a grief he can’t move past. And maybe his grief has clouded his judgment. Driving home one night, a rain-drenched girl taps on his car window and asks for a ride. He knows a grown man picking up a teenage hitchhiker is foolish—but he lets her in. Cal soon senses that something’s not right with the girl or the situation. But it’s too late. He’s already involved. Drawn into a nightmare of secrets, lies, and cover-ups in his small, upstate New York town, Cal knows that the only thing that can save him is the truth. And he’s about to expose the town’s secrets one by one—if he lives long enough.
