Spellwright
Charlton, Blake.
New York : Tor, 2010.
"Nicodemus Weal has trained at the wizardly stronghold of Starhaven since
he was a boy. His mentor, the famous wizard Agwu Shannon, taught him how to cast
spells made from luminescent magical runes, how to peel written words off a page
and make them physically real, how to protect himself with defensive paragraphs,
and how to thrust sharply worded sentences at an enemy. Initially, Nicodemus
showed great promise. Able to forge magical runes with great speed, he was once
thought to be the Halcyon--a powerful spellwright prophesied to prevent the
apocalypse known as the Disjunction. There was only one problem: Nicodemus
couldn't spell. Every time he touched a magical text, he unintentionally
corrupted it, turning a useful spell into a dangerous, potentially deadly
misspell. Even now, at twenty-five, Nicodemus's problem remains so bad that he
is allowed to use his magic only for janitorial tasks. While his peers advance
as wizards, he is still an apprentice, living with other disabled spellwrights
and reading knightly romances that fuel his dreams of escape and adventure. When
a powerful wizard is murdered with a misspell, Nicodemus and Shannon both are
suspected. Worse, Nicodemus dreams of a foreign city under attack from an
ancient, godlike spell...and wakes to find Starhaven abuzz with news of that
city's actual destruction. A second nightmare makes Nicodemus begin to question
his own sanity. When there are more mysterious deaths, the authorities hunt him
as a murderer. Tormented and desperate, Nicodemus has no choice but to flee his
pursuers so that he can discover the truth about the murders, the nature of
magic...and himself."--Dust cover flap.

The
bridge : the life and rise of Barack Obama
Remnick, David.
New York : Alfred A. Knopf, 2010.
Through extensive on-the-record interviews with friends and teachers, mentors
and disparagers, family members and Obama himself, David Remnick demonstrates
how a rootless, unaccomplished, and confused young man created himself first as
a community organizer in Chicago, then as a Harvard Law School graduate, and
finally as President of the United States. "By looking at Obama's political
rise through the prism of our racial history, Remnick gives us the conflicting
agendas of black politicians: the dilemmas of ... heroes of the civil rights
movement who are forced to reassess old loyalties and understand the priorties
of a new generation of African-American leaders. The Bridge revisits the
American drama of race, from slavery to civil rights, and makes clear how
Obama's quest is not just his own but is emblematic of a nation where destiny is
defined by individuals keen to imagine a future that is different from the
reality of their current lives." -- from publisher description.

The
dead hand : the untold story of the Cold War arms race and its dangerous legacy
Hoffman, David E. (David Emanuel).
New York : Doubleday, 2009.
During the Cold War, superpowers amassed nuclear arsenals containing the
explosive power of one million Hiroshimas. The Soviet Union secretly plotted to
create the "Dead Hand," a system designed to launch an automatic
retaliatory nuclear strike on the United States, and developed a fearsome
biological warfare machine. President Ronald Reagan, hoping to awe the Soviets
into submission, pushed hard for the creation of space-based missile defenses.
This, the first full account of how the arms race finally ended, provides an
unprecedented look at the inner motives and secret decisions of each side.
Drawing on top-secret documents from deep inside the Kremlin, memoirs, and
interviews in both Russia and the United States, David Hoffman introduces the
scientists, soldiers, diplomats, and spies who saw the world sliding toward
disaster and tells the gripping story of how Reagan, Gorbachev, and many others
struggled to bring the madness to an end.--From publisher description.

Goldberg, Carey, 1961-

Carey, Beth, and Pam had succeeded at work but failed at romance, and each
resolved to have a baby before time ran out. Just one problem: no men.
Carey took the first bold step towards single motherhood, searching
anonymous donor banks until she found the perfect match. What she found
was not a father in a vial, but a sort of magic potion. She met a man,
fell in love, and got pregnant the old-fashioned way. She passed the vials
to Beth, and it happened again. Beth met man, Beth got pregnant. Beth
passed the vials to Pam, and the magic struck again. There were setbacks
and disappointments, but three women became three families, reveling in
the shared joy of love, friendship, and never losing hope.

The
immortal life of Henrietta Lacks
Skloot, Rebecca, 1972-
New York : Crown Publishers, c2010.
Her name was Henrietta Lacks, but scientists know her as HeLa. She was a poor
Southern tobacco farmer, yet her cells--taken without her knowledge--became one
of the most important tools in medicine. The first "immortal" human
cells grown in culture, they are still alive today, though she has been dead for
more than sixty years. HeLa cells were vital for developing the polio vaccine;
uncovered secrets of cancer and viruses; helped lead to in vitro fertilization,
cloning, and gene mapping; and have been bought and sold by the billions. Yet
Henrietta Lacks is buried in an unmarked grave. Her family did not learn of her
"immortality" until more than twenty years after her death, when
scientists began using her husband and children in research without informed
consent. The story of the Lacks family is inextricably connected to the dark
history of experimentation on African Americans, the birth of bioethics, and the
legal battles over whether we control the stuff we are made of--From publisher

The
language of life : DNA and the revolution in personalized medicine
Collins, Francis S.
New York : Harper, c2009.
A medical revolution is upon us, and leading geneticist Collins explains its
dimensions here. Our knowledge of the genetic basis for disease has increased
exponentially in recent years, and we are now able to understand and treat
diseases at the molecular level with personalized medicine--care based on an
individual's genetic makeup. Collins presents cutting-edge science for lay
readers who want to take control of their medical lives. He discusses cancer,
obesity, aging, racial differences, and a host of other concerns, as well as the
medical advances directly attributable to the Human Genome Project. He is also
not shy about taking on large political issues: he points out problems with our
current health-care system, discusses stem-cell research, and in a cogent
commentary, recommends--with caveats--direct-to-consumer DNA testing. He does a
superb job of humanizing a complex scientific and medical subject.--From

The
champion of children : the story of Janusz Korczak
Bogacki, Tomasz.
New York : Farrar Straus Giroux, 2009.
In 1912, a well-known doctor and writer named Janusz Korczak designed an
extraordinary orphanage for Jewish children in Warsaw, Poland. Believing
that children were capable of governing themselves, he encouraged the
orphans to elect a parliament, run a court, and put out their own weekly
newspaper. Even when Korczak was forced to move the orphanage into the
Warsaw Ghetto after Hitler's rise to power, and couldn't afford to buy
food and medicine for his charges, he never lost sight of his ideals.
Fully committed to giving his children as much love as possible during a
terrifying time, Korczak refused to abandon them. In his most beautiful
and heartfelt book to date, Tomek Bogacki tells the story of a courageous
man who, during one of the grimmest moments in world history, dedicated
his life's work, and ultimately his life itself, to children.
