This is not your grandmother's knitting and crochet! For those ready to break away from the pattern books and create wearable pieces of fiber art, freeform is an exciting discovery. It's a technique that abandons strict garment design and builds up simple shapes out of gorgeous textured yarns--with the knitter sometimes making it up as she goes along. Start with the step-by-step clinics on how to create fragments and motifs like chevrons, flowers, and spirals. Then take inspiration from the color photographs and combine luscious yarns in intricate patchworks of stitches. The result? Something amazingly unique. There's guidance on creating fabulously fashionable capes, stylish shoulder bags, intriguing scarves and hats, avant-garde jewelry, and even handy cell phone holders.

Nerve and Muscle by David J. Aidley, ISBN 0521805848
An understanding of the physiology and function of nerve and muscle is fundamental to our knowledge of how the human body and the bodies of other animals function. In the third edition of this highly readable and concise introductory textbook, the authors begin with a discussion of the nature of nerve impulses as electrical events. They go on to consider communication between nerve cells via synaptic transmission, and finally discuss the nature of muscular contraction, relating muscle cellular structure to contractile function. This is a subject that continues to generate exciting discoveries and this edition includes new material that reflects this, including some of the experimental evidence. The reader will find up-to-date detail of the molecular structure of ion channels and the molecular basis of muscular contraction. Nerve and Muscle is essential reading for all students taking university courses in neurobiology, physiology, cell biology, and preclinical medicine.

Fragile Innocence: A Father's Memoir of His Daughter's Courageous Journey
When James Reston's bright, bubbling two-year-old daughter Hillary developed a high fever, her parents, following their doctor's advice, treated it with baby aspirin. But when the high fever subsided, Hillary's physical, emotional, and intellectual health was severely compromised. Her devastating decline was so rare that the doctor compared it to the likelihood of a bat jumping over the moon. Reston's chronicle of his daughter Hillary's battle to survive and his attempts to find the cause and a cure for her illness moves from the family home, where crises are almost daily occurrences, to doctors' offices and cuttingedge laboratories involved in such controversial areas as stem-cell research and therapeutic cloning. With affecting candor, he describes the family's efforts to come to grips with the tragedy; the mistakes they made and the small successes they cherished; and the extraordinary dedication of professionals searching for solutions to human pain and suffering.

Complexity: Life at the Edge of Chaos by Roger Lewin, ISBN 0226476553
"Put together one of the world's best science writers with one of the universe's most fascinating subjects and you are bound to produce a wonderful book. . . . The subject of complexity is vital and controversial. This book is important and beautifully done."--Stephen Jay Gould"?Complexity? is that curious mix of complication and organization that we find throughout the natural and human worlds: the workings of a cell, the structure of the brain, the behavior of the stock market, the shifts of political power. . . . It is time science . . . thinks about meaning as well as counting information. . . . This is the core of the complexity manifesto. Read it, think about it . . . but don't ignore it."--Ian Stewart, "Nature"This second edition has been brought up to date with an essay entitled "On the Edge in the Business World" and an interview with John Holland, author of "Emergence: From Chaos to Order.
