Here is the first biography of Casanova, "the king of all adventurers," the great gallant of the Eighteenth Century. Liar, forger, cardsharp, adulterer, seducer, he had only his wits to protect him from unmasking - and the resultant imprisonment and poverty. Yet in the midst of his ruthless existence he found time to be, also, a student to the humanities, a philosopher, dramatist and poet.His Memoirs, famous through they are, have been unavailable to all but a few, and cover but a portion of his career. Mr. Endore has undertaken to sift out the falsehood in the Memoirs, fill in their hiatuses, and complete the life-story, basing it upon the latest available sources.So amazing was the life of this paradoxical gentleman that a generation after his death the world refused to believe he had ever existed. He became a rakehelly myth. Mr. Endore has restored him to his rightful place in history, at the same time preserving the picturesque and flavorsome aspects of his nature.

Stuart Hall’s retirement from the Open University in 1997 provided a unique opportunity to reflect on an academic career which has had the most profound impact on scholarship and teaching in many parts of the world. From his early work on the media, through his influential re-working of Gramsci for the analysis of Britain in the late 1970s, through his considered debates on Thatcherism and more recently on “race” and new ethnicities, Hall has been an inspirational figure for generations of academics. He has helped to make universities places where ideas and social commitment can exist alongside each other. This collection invites a wide range of academics who have been influenced by Stuart Hall’s writing to contribute not a memoir or a eulogy but an engaged piece of social, cultural or historical analysis which continues and develops the field of thinking opened up by Hall. The topics covered include identity and hybridity, history and post-colonialism, pedagogy and cultural politics, space and place, globalization and economy, modernity and difference.

An abstract elementary class is a class of structures of the same vocabulary (like a class of rings, or a class of fields), with a partial order that generalizes the relation "A is a substructure (or an elementary substructure) of B". The requirements are that the class is closed under isomorphism, and that isomorphic structures have isomorphic (generalized) substructures; we also require that our classes share some of the most basic properties of elementary classes, like closure under unions of increasing chains of substructures. We would like to classify this general family; in the sense of proving dichotomies: either we can understand the structure of all models in our class or there are many to some extent. More specifically we would like to generalize the theory about categoricity and superstability to this context.

This hilarious memoir, by Sally Fingerett, tells the tale of a free spirited musician and touring member of the original musical comedy theatre troupe THE FOUR BITCHIN' BABES. Traveling the country for 25 years, performing on over eight hundred stages, Sally, wanted it all--husband, kids, and career, even though she became the designated daughter to a manic-depressive mother. In this heartwarming book, she offers a view from the bridge between living life and creating art from it. In these tales, she shares those everyday moments women experience, as seen through her distinctly funny viewfinder. This "Jewish girl born on Christmas Day," comes from a long line of medicated women. Wild and crazy, genuine and caring, these Medicated Matriarchs handed down to this traveling Gypsy-Singer, their big thighs, their love of family, and their wackadoodle DNA. As a self-proclaimed "student of crazy," Sally compiled a heartwarming collection of forty essays, three family SECRET recipes, and the lyrics to thirty-three of her best loved songs, each following the story they're connected to. ALSO available (sold separately) is the companion double disc anthology CD set of those 33 songs, titled The Mental Yentl, Songs from a Lifelong Student of Crazy.

Sam White and the seven inner demons is a poetry chapbook about healing. A journey of self-reflection and overcoming cycles of abuse. Inspired by fairytales, this chapbook begins with a walk into the woods. Here, we learn, as a coping mechanism, SW fades in and out of disassociation and is on a winding path of recovery. The following is one stream of consciousness poem divided into seven parts and inspired by the seven dwarfs. Instead of seven tiny men living in a cottage, these poems personify the inner demons that live inside SW's head. Often seeking refuge everywhere but in herself, SW feels caught in a never-ending vortex of darkness. By the end of the chapbook, she has learned that she can escape the cycle of abuse once she knows how to stand up for and save herself.
