From the indefatigable Wallace family, authors of The Book of Lists and The People’s Almanac series (New York Times bestsellers that sold over eight million copies internationally), came 1981’s The Intimate Sex Lives of Famous People. This compelling bestseller that kept many a reader up at night with its two hundred revealing profiles and three hundred rare photos just got better with a dozen new entries on the nocturnal fascinations of the iconic Tupac Shakur, Carlos Casteneda, Jim Morrison, Nico, Wilt Chamberlain, Ayn Rand, Kurt Cobain, Princess Diana, Aleister Crowley, Anna Nicole Smith, Michael Hutchence, and Malcolm X. Irving Wallace was the famous novelist and screenwriting author of The Chapman Report and The Word. His wife, Sylvia Wallace, wrote the best-selling novel The Fountains. The Wallace family’s publishing magic lives on with Amy Wallace, author of The Sorcerer’s Apprentice: My Life with Carlos Castaneda, and David Wallechinsky, author of The Complete Book of the Summer Olympics and Tyrants: The World’s Worst Dictators.
David Mendell, “Obama: From Promise to Power”
ISBN: 0060858214 | 2008 | PDF | 448 pages | 3 MB
Barack Obama is arguably the most dynamic political figure to grace the American stage since John F. Kennedy. His meteoric rise from promise to power has stunned even the cynics and inspired a legion of devout followers. For anyone who wants to know more about the man who would be president, David Mendell’s Obama is essential reading. Mendell, who has covered Obama for the Chicago Tribune since the beginning of Obama’s campaign for the Senate, had far-reaching access to the senator, the details of which he shares in this compelling biography. Positioning Obama as the savior of a fumbling Democratic party, Mendell shows how Obama conquered Illinois politics and paved the way brick by brick for a galvanizing, historic presidential run. With exclusive contributions by family members and advisers, and details on Obama’s voting record, this is a complete, complex, and revealing portrait, a must read for anyone interested in American politics in general and Senator Barack Obama in particular.

Craig Venter: Dissecting the Genome (Trailblazers in Science and Technology)

The scientist featured in the Times story was J. Craig Venter (1946-C ). The article explained that Venter proposed to determine the order, or sequence, of the 6 billion small molecules that make up the DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, in the nucleus, or central body, of each human cell. DNA contains the instructions for carrying out cell functions that each organism inherits from its parents. The instructions are encoded in the sequence of four types of small molecules called bases, which link together to form the long, coiled double chains of DNA. In essence, Venter was planning to spell out what many writers have called the book of life”.
