The dangerous book for grown-up boys
Absinthe & Flamethrowers

Projects and Ruminations on the Art
of Living Dangerously
William Gurstelle
• Co-op available
• Advertising in Make, ReadyMade, and Mental_floss
• Author’s previous books sold more than 300,000 copies
Written for reasonable risk takers and suburban dads who want to
add more excitement to their lives, this daring combination of sci-
ence, history, and DIY projects explains why danger is good for you
and details the art of living dangerously. All of the projects—from
throwing knives, drinking absinthe, and eating fugu to cracking a
bullwhip, learning bartitsu, and building a flamethrower—have
short learning curves; are human-focused, as opposed to technology-
centric; are affordable; and demonstrate true but reasonable risk.
The guide maintains that risk takers are more successful, more inter-
esting individuals who lead more fulfilling lives. What would the
world be like if Thomas Edison retired after 30 years working for
the railroad, it asks, instead of getting fired for blowing up a rail car
with one of his experiments? Though the manual doesn’t advocate
getting fired, it does reveal that making black powder is pure excite-
ment. Unlike watching an action movie or playing a video game,
real, edgy life experience changes a person. Each potentially life-
altering project includes step-by-step directions and illustrations
along with sidebar tips from experts in the field.

Dispatches from the World of Boxing
Katherine Dunn
• Co-op available
• Author tour to include Los Angeles (April)
Published together for the first time, this anthology of essays on
boxing covers the sport in all its forms and at its many levels.
Written in bestselling Katherine Dunn’s characteristic vernacular,
these pieces range from portraits of legendary fighters such as
Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Marvin Hagler, and Mike
Tyson to the unsung stories of trainers, amateurs, promoters,
cutmen, and a pair of pugilistic priests. Spanning 30 years and
including all who make up the vibrant boxing world, this compi-
lation—from one of the most original voices in American sports
literature—finely elevates the sport and communicates its beauty,
passion, and character.
Katherine Dunn is an award-winning boxing journalist whose
work has appeared in many publications, including Esquire, KO
Magazine, The New York Times Sunday Magazine, Playboy, The
Ring, Sports Illustrated, and Vogue. She is the author of three
novels, including Geek Love, which was a finalist for the
National Book Award. In 2004, Dunn and photographer Jim
Lommasson won the Lange-Taylor Documentary Prize for their
work on the book Shadow Boxers. She is currently associate edi-
tor of cyberboxingzone.com, an internet boxing encyclopedia
and magazine. She lives in Portland, Oregon.

Excerpt from “Ali-Frazier IV”:

This fight was a circus, as all big boxing matches
are. The glitter gets the audience in the door and
puts them in the seats. And then the joke is over.
The white lights go on above the ring, and two
people give whatever they’ve got. Sometimes, it’s
a clear view of the human heart. That doesn’t
happen every time. Maybe it doesn’t happen
often enough. But when it does—as it did that
night—it’s the greatest show on earth.

A fascinating tour through art heists,

plunders, and raids—and how to
prevent them
Stolen
The Gallery of Missing Masterpieces
Jonathan Webb
Introduction by Julian Radcliffe
• Author tour to include Boston, Chicago, New York City,
and San Francisco
Uncovering the enormously lucrative, high-risk world of
art theft, this intriguing study goes behind the scenes and
explores the sleight-of-hand criminals that steal art and
antiquities and the strategies investigators employ to
recoup the works. The discussion considers the psycholo-
gy behind the thieves, the motley crew of characters on
both sides of the law, and the famous cases that made
headlines. An important special gallery section—with rare
images from the Art Loss Register—offers a glimpse into
the magnitude of what is lost and how these crimes con-
tribute to cultural extinction. This examination also gives
special attention to art looting in relation to war and
oppression, reveals how the United Nations can aid in
recovery, and debates the legality of such cases as the
Elgin Marble pieces and current art-raids in Afghanistan
and Iraq.
Jonathan Webb is an award-winning journalist, novelist,
editor, and the author of Pluck. He lives in Guelph,
Ontario. Julian Radcliffe is the chairman of the Art Loss
Register, an organization that assists in art recovery
around the world; a member of the Order of the British
Empire; and the author of Museum of the Missing.

Offering a thrilling introduction to the underworld of stolen
art, this investigation reveals the little-known story of modern
art theft and shows how the legitimate art market, with its
hyped auctions and landmark sales, has ignited criminal inter-
est in these high-end pieces. The photographs, illustrations,
and case studies give a fascinating and detailed behind-the-
scenes account of the major thefts during the past hundred
years—ranging from Edvard Munch’s The Scream and loot-
ing during World War II and the Iraq wars to a brazen and
bizarre theft of a two-ton bronze Henry Moore sculpture. A
gallery lists the estimated value of each stolen piece, painting
an overview of the cultural, historical, and economic losses.

Exploring the enormous upheaval caused by the English
Reformation and the Dissolution of the Monasteries, this vivid
new history draws on long-forgotten material from the recesses
of one of the world’s greatest cathedrals—the great Benedictine
Durham Priory, now the Anglican Durham Cathedral. Once a
bastion of the Benedictine monks in the north of England, the
Priory was dissolved after nearly 500 years on the orders of King
Henry VIII in 1539, in his quest to separate the church in
England from its headquarters in Rome. This illuminating guide
to religious history and its social and political contexts, seen
through the arches of one of England’s most celebrated cathe-
drals, examines the devastating economic and spiritual conse-
quences of the Dissolution, revealing how one of history’s most
effective and chilling apparatus of plunder and ruin erased the
orders of monks and nuns that had served some 650 monastic
religious houses in England and Wales.
Geoffrey Moorhouse is the author of 19 books, including the
Thomas Cook Award–winning To the Frontier and the Los
Angeles Times Book Prize finalist Sun Dancing.

The True Story of a Great American Road Trip
Matthew Algeo
“The thing that always amazed me was that my grandfather, hav-

down. Matthew recalls that memorable trip beautifully and with
the sense of humor it deserves.” —Clifton Truman Daniel,

From Missouri to New York and back again, this recounting of
an amazing journey chronicles the road trip of a former presi-
dent and his wife and their amusing, failed attempts to keep a
low profile. Diners, bellhops, and cabbies shouted out “Hiya,
Harry!” whenever they recognized the former president, and,
out for his daily constitutional on the streets of New York,
Harry even stumbled into the sidewalk shot of the newly
launched Today show. Along the way there are brief detours
into relevant topics, such as the postwar American auto indus-
try, McCarthyism, the development of the nation’s highway sys-
tem, and the decline of Main Street America. By the end of the
2,500-mile journey, readers will have a new and heartfelt appre-
ciation for America’s last citizen-president.

On Wednesday, July 1, Harry took another
morning walk. This time his route took him
down Park Avenue to 49th Street, where he
turned west. Just past Rockefeller Plaza, he
noticed a small group of people standing on the
sidewalk, looking into a building through a large

he appeared as one of the faces in the back-

oughly discussed, while riveting testimony from 13 leading
experts in wound ballistics, forensic anthropology, suicide psy-

Intersexuality and the Myth of Two Sexes

• One in 2,000 children are born each year in the U.S. with an
intersex condition (or disorder of sex development)
Providing a fascinating look at the science of sex and what
makes people male or female, this book explains dozens of inter-
sex conditions—such as hermaphroditism, Klinefelter syndrome,
and androgen insensitivity syndrome—and includes personal
interviews with people living with these conditions telling their
surprising and often heart-wrenching stories. Even doctors and
scientists are not entirely sure if external genitalia, internal sex
organs, chromosomes, DNA, environment, or some combination
define a person’s sex. But, as this examination shows, what is
clear is that sex is not an either-or proposition: not girl/boy,
XX/XY. There are babies born XYY, XXX, or with any dozen or
more known variations in the X or Y chromosomes. The history
and the current treatment for intersex conditions as well as the
options that are available today for the ambiguous child are cov-
ered in this captivating account that shows what it truly means
to be human.

Drawing on the most important studies in psychology, human
aggression, anthropology, and primatology, and on hundreds of
original interviews conducted over a period of more than 20
years, this groundbreaking treatise urges women to look within
and to consider other women realistically, ethically, and kindly
and to forge bold and compassionate alliances. Without this nec-
essary next step, women will never be liberated. Detailing how
women’s aggression may not take the same form as men’s, this
investigation reveals—through myths, plays, memoir, theories of
revolutionary liberation movements, evolution, psychoanalysis,
and childhood development—that girls and women are indeed
aggressive, often indirectly and mainly toward one another. This
fascinating work concludes by showing that women depend
upon one another for emotional intimacy and bonding, and

A window into the lives of women in the Catholic

Church’s most intriguing organization
Women of Opus Dei

In Their Own Words
Edited by M. T. Oates, Linda Ruf, and Jenny Driver, MD
“Perhaps no part of contemporary Roman Catholicism has been
more misunderstood and misconstrued than has Opus Dei, especially
in the days since the publication of the popular bestseller, The
DaVinci Code. This collection of interviews and autobiographical
statements, by contrast, offers its readers not only a sympathetic, but
also a very informative, presentation of the prelature and is to be
highly recommended to those who are interested in this influential
organization.” —Phyllis Tickle, author, The Divine Hours
“Whether former atheists or cradle-Catholics, [these women] have
discovered a path that will inspire any woman who longs for a deep-
er way to deal with her days.” —Delia Gallagher, Vatican analyst

A conservative Catholic argues for a return

A Crisis of Saints
The Call to Heroic Faith in an Unheroic World
Second edition
George W. Rutler
Foreword by George Weigel
• Advertising in Christian Advance (January), America, First Things,
and Life and Soul (April), National Catholic Register (May), Faith &
Family (May/June), and Family Foundations (July/August)
The essays that comprise this collection offer a penetrating examina-
tion of the spiritual condition of 21st-century society and the modern
Catholic Church. In a witty but soundly reasoned manner, the moral
weakness that epitomizes the contemporary era is berated. Examples
from the lives of figures from early and recent church history serve as
parables for current cultural crises, and the voices of frustrated
parishioners around the world give these situations immediacy. Each
chapter vividly demonstrates that the moral dangers of post-Vatican
II life are often disguised as mere alternatives rather than threats to
the soul. This proposal offers an authentically Catholic way of
responding to these ethical challenges and exhorts the faithful to
move beyond romanticism about Vatican II and strive for lives of
virtue that respond to the Church’s call for effective evangelization.
George W. Rutler is the host of a weekly program on EWTN radio, a

The Art of Kumihimo
Jacqui Carey
The traditional Japanese craft of Kumihimo is clearly explained in

braids, and tips on equipment and advice for developing the proj-
ects are included. By using a variety of patterns, colors, and tex-

stunning necklaces, bracelets, cords, and other fashion accessories.

How to use intrinsic light to create

miraculous images
Available Light
Photographic Techniques for Using Existing
Light Sources
Don Marr
“The exercises presented for each topic make it easy to follow
along using your own lights and subjects.”
—www.Photo-Seminars.com
• Advertising in Rangefinder (July)
Emphasizing how to work with natural light rather than using
supplementary lighting to create an artificial environment,
photographers can use these simple techniques to mold exist-
ing light into the desired quality and shape. All situations are
discussed, including overcast and sunny days, backlighting and
flare, window light, daylight studios, natural reflectors, and
studio lighting at home, offering a plethora of ideas for find-
ing, diffusing, and creating light. As photographers learn the
advantages of shooting with available light—no set up, more
spontaneity, more time to concentrate on the subject, and the
ability to capture preexisting relationships—they not only
become better photographers but gain confidence and an
increased awareness of their artistic medium.

graphy instructor. He is the author of Beginner’s Guide

New insights into the bewildering events on this

popular program
Finding Lost—Season Four

The Unofficial Guide
Nikki Stafford
“If you’re a fan of the popular TV show Lost, you can’t be with-
out this unofficial guide.” —California Bookwatch on
Finding Lost
• Co-op available
For both new viewers and diehard fans, this illuminating guide to
the Emmy and Golden Globe Award–winning television program
helps Lost fanatics piece together the latest additions to the puz-
zle from season four with detailed discussions of the multitudi-
nous characters, their spotty backgrounds, and the mysterious
islands. Thorough examinations of each episode provide fresh
insight into the baffling worlds of both the plane crash survivors
and the Others, while analyzing numerous concepts, such as the
importance of the Oceanic Six, how the time-travel theories play
into the greater mysteries on the show, how different characters’
paths are beginning to cross, and how the series could possibly
end. Additional chapters explore the historical figures, religious
iconography, literary allusions—to such works as Slaughterhouse
Five and Shakespeare’s The Tempest—and other clues scattered
throughout the show. Dozens of previously unpublished on-set
photos and new cast-member biographies are also included.
Nikki Stafford is the author of several books, including Bite Me!:
An Unofficial Guide to the World of Buffy the Vampire Slayer;
Finding Lost; Once Bitten: A Guide to the World of Angel; and
Uncovering Alias: An Unofficial Guide.

A real-life Sopranos story in the Windy City
Family Secrets
The Case That Crippled the Chicago Mob
Jeff Coen
• Co-op available
• Advertising in Chicago magazine, Chicago Reader,
and Vegas magazine
Painting a vivid picture of the scenes both inside and outside the
courtroom and re-creating events from court transcripts, police
records, interviews, and notes taken day after day as the story
unfolded in court in 2007, this narrative accurately portrays
cold-blooded—and sometimes incompetent—killers and their
crimes. In 1998 Frank Calabrese Jr. offered to wear a wire to
help the FBI build a case against his father, Frank Sr., and his
uncle Nick. A top Mob boss, a reputed consigliore, and other
high-profile members of the Chicago outfit were eventually
accused in a total of 18 gangland killings, revealing organized
crime’s ruthless grip on the city throughout the 1960s, 1970s,
and 1980s. After a series of other defendants pled guilty, those
left to face off in court alongside Frank Sr. were James “Little
Jimmy” Marcello, the acting head of the Chicago mob; Joey “the
Clown” Lombardo, one of Chicago’s most colorful mobsters;
and Paul “the Indian” Schiro. A former Chicago police officer
who worked in evidence, Anthony “Twan” Doyle, rounded out
the list. The riveting testimony and wide-angle view provide one
of the best accounts on record of the inner workings of the
Chicago syndicate and its control over the city’s streets.
Jeff Coen is a reporter for the Chicago Tribune, covering federal
trials and investigations from the Dirksen U.S. Courthouse in
downtown Chicago. He was present in the courtroom through-
out the Family Secrets trial, and his pieces on the case were fea-
tured in a popular series in the Chicago Tribune. He lives in Oak

A firsthand account of how racists got away

with murder in Mississippi
Devil’s Sanctuary
An Eyewitness History
of Mississippi Hate Crimes
Alex A. Alston Jr. and James L. Dickerson
“A moving book, part history, part memoir, of a hard time in a
cursed land redeemed by small but deeply meaningful acts of
courage. These were dark days indeed for Mississippi, but Alston
and Dickerson let in the light.” —Evan Thomas, Newsweek
“An unflinching look at the roots of racism that corrupts the
Mississippi government to this day. This compelling book is
must reading to understand the primal fears and political
manipulation that divide our nation and threaten our Founding
Fathers’ basic moral imperative: ‘All men are created equal.’”
—Frank Lalli,
international editor in chief,
Reader’s Digest
• Co-op available
• Advertising in Harper’s, Jackson Free Press, Mother Jones, The New
York Review of Books, Oxford American, and Salon.com
Recalling the state’s shameful racist history of lynching, arson,
denial of rights, false imprisonment, and other heinous crimes,
this riveting narrative explores how Mississippi became a safe
haven for the most violent and virulent racists, who were
immune to prosecution for their crimes. This sanctuary of the
then status quo emerged from the 1956 Mississippi State
Sovereignty Commission’s efforts to preserve segregation and
“Mississippi Values” by declaring the state outside the jurisdic-
tion of the federal government. Analysis of the major crimes, the
institutional collusion, delayed and never-delivered justice, and
the state’s attempts at atonement are interspersed with the
authors’ recollections of what they saw, heard, and experienced
as whites—thus “insiders”—during this troubled time. With
commentary extending to the present day, this is both a well-
researched history and an eyewitness record of living through an
era of judicial, media, and economic terrorism directed against
African Americans.
Alex A. Alston Jr. is a past president of the Mississippi Bar
Association who has taught and written extensively on issues of
trial advocacy. James L. Dickerson is a journalist, social worker,

Excerpt:
At first our mind will be very busy, and we might even feel that the meditation is making our
mind busier. But in reality we are just becoming more aware of how busy our mind actually is.
There will be a great temptation to follow the different thoughts as they arise, but we should
resist this and remain focused single-pointedly on the sensation of the breath. If we discover that
our mind has wandered and is following our thoughts, we should immediately return it to the
breath. We should repeat this as many times as necessary until the mind settles on the breath.

Sorrow Wood
Raymond L. Atkins
• Co-op available
When the charred body of a promiscuous, self-proclaimed witch
is discovered at a farm called Sorrow Wood, nearly everyone in
the sleepy town of Sand Valley, Alabama, is drawn into the case.
As the murder probe continues, a multitude of secrets are
revealed, including one that leads back to the rock castle home
of Wendell Blackmon, Sand Valley’s police chief, and his beloved
wife Reva. The town’s inhabitants ruminate on the true meaning
of commitment, love, death, hope, and loss as they delve deeper
into questions such as Who was this woman? Where did she
come from? and What did her presence mean to Wendell, Reva,
and the townspeople of Sand Valley?

Excerpt:
Wendell Blackmon considered the dead dog lying before
him. He wiped his sweating brow with a white handkerchief
pulled from his back pocket. He looked a bit incongruous
producing the starched hanky, like a Teamster holding up a
pinky as he slurped coffee at the truck stop. He was a tall,
broad-shouldered man with thinning brown hair and a full
beard gone mostly white. He sported a nose that had profiled
better before it was broken those three times. His creased
forehead was high and getting higher as his hairline receded,
and there were laugh lines at the corners of his blue eyes. The
passage of the years had added a few extra pounds to his
frame, and these had the effect of enhancing the sense of
largeness that he projected. Also available:
The August afternoon was as humid as a rain forest and
hotter than the third circle of hell. The weather report that
morning had called for a near 100 percent chance of rain,
locally heavy at times. Miniature dark clouds with petite
lightning bolts had been superimposed on the weather map,
and the meteorologist had gravely advised her viewers to
pack an umbrella in anticipation of the inevitability of pre-
cipitation. Wendell looked up at the cloudless blue sky and
mentally declared another triumph for modern meteorology.
He noted a mountain hawk hanging on the wind, floating
effortlessly over the landscape. Its mournful kee kee came to The Front Porch Prophet

Shelby Le Cervoisier used to lead a life of leisure—now she’s run-
ning for her life. After being accused of killing an American immi-
gration agent, Shelby undertakes a mission on behalf of a
secretive American espionage agency, in exchange for legal
amnesty and political asylum. When the mission gets bungled, the
agency wants her dead and hires two assassins, Hank and Vlad,
to do the job. Shelby and her younger sister, Carmen, hurriedly
flee to the Midwest, only to be captured by Hank. Romance blos-
soms between the hunter and his prey and the bounty reward
takes a back seat; instead of turning them in, Hank stows the sis-
ters away at a farm in a remote corner of Colorado. Meanwhile,
psychopathic Vlad hasn’t given up the chase and tensions mount
as they wait for his arrival at the farm sanctuary.

Excerpt:
From twenty-eight thousand feet and ten miles out, southern Florida's coastal lights appeared as a line
of twinkling jewels that broadened and transmuted into a steady glow as landfall drew nearer. Shelby
Cervosier, the twin-jet Cessna Citation's only passenger, had begun to unwind during the flight from
Haiti, but the reminder that she was minutes from being back in harm's way knotted her chest and
ignited a fire in her stomach.
The pilot, flying without a copilot, had invited Shelby to join him in the cockpit during the flight.
“Almost there,” he said. “We need to go over the plan?”
“I have it. When you stop the plane, I jump out and head for the largest hangar. A woman named
Brenda will be waiting in a Dodge van. She'll take me to a place where I can rent a car.”
He gave her a thumbs-up. “Runway lights reflect skyward, so the ground will be dark. Watch your
step.” He talked on the radio, listened, talked again, and adjusted the autopilot. The engines' shrill
whine softened. “Air Traffic Control bought the oil-leak story. We're cleared for an emergency landing.”
A cloudbank temporarily blocked their view. Then Shelby, sitting in the copilot's seat, saw miles of
lights but nothing that looked like an airport. “Where do we land?”
“It's a rural strip—no control tower. I trigger the lights with my radio.” The pilot changed frequencies
and thumbed his microphone switch several times. In the distance, runway lights glowed and bright-
ened. “I won't shut down the engines or turn off the landing lights, because we don't want prying eyes
to know you're abandoning ship. Brenda will probably be sleeping. You’ll have to find her and knock
on a window.”
“No problem.” Shelby's throat tightened so that she could barely get the words out. “Chuck, I'm so
afraid you'll get in trouble for this.”
“Don't sweat it. When I park, I'll make a brief exit and—never mind. The point is, by the time
Customs gets here my starboard engine will be leaking oil worse than the Exxon Valdez.” He patted her
hand. “E-mail me when you've snatched your little sister and found a hideout. Now, you ought to go
back to the cabin and buckle yourself in.”

Jackson’s brother who was recently arrested for murdering his

Excerpt:
“Back off, 248.”
Bobbing in the Gulf of Mexico, Dr. Morgan Cabot fixed her gaze on the Sunrise, a yacht
twenty yards in front of her. Its running lights burned thin amber and spilled over the deck
and onto the dark, choppy water. The beating sounds of the Apache’s props had to be carrying
to the boat and still the chopper wasn’t responding to Morgan’s orders to back off. She rode
out a swell, adjusted her lip mic, and then softly whispered into it. “Home Base, 248 is not
responding. Condition critical. Relay that back-off directive to 248 ASAP.”
What was that damn pilot doing? Trying to get her killed? Knots formed in Morgan's stom-
ach and then cinched down. Providence Air Force Base was due north, about twenty miles
inland from the Gulf of Mexico's Florida shore. Hopefully, the target would consider the
chopper’s flight routine to the area and not associate it with anything else, but she wasn't at
all eager to bet her life on it, and she resented like hell the chopper pilot doing so.
Lucky breaks, or even semi-lucky breaks, on this entire mission seemed to be in short supply,
but Morgan desperately needed that one. At least, that one.

How Eastern culture can impact overweight America
The Asian Diet

Simple Secrets for Eating Right, Losing Weight,
and Being Well
Jason Bussell
• Co-op available
In this era of fad diets, detox programs, and “superfoods,” this
examination of the relationship between diet and lifestyle looks
to the Far East to claim that the simple principles to live by are
balance and moderation. By rebuilding the connections between
what is put into the body and how it functions, the diet outlined
in this book teaches the daily effects that particular food choices
will have—on bodyweight, energy, mood, and the quality and
duration of life—and that ultimately all foods are good in the
right proportion. All major food groups are covered, with addi-
tional sections on dietary supplements, lifestyle, and attitude,
plus a handful of recipes to demonstrate the principles of the
diet.
Jason Bussell is an Illinois-licensed acupuncturist with a nation-
al certification in acupuncture and oriental medicine. He is the
president of the Illinois Association of Acupuncture and
Oriental Medicine and serves on the advisory board for cur-
riculum development of the Pacific College of Oriental
Medicine. He lives in Chicago.

From the Hunley to the Kursk, the Greatest
Submarines Ever Lost—and Found
Spencer Dunmore
Introduction by Dr. Robert D. Ballard
“Written in simple yet propulsive prose, the volume paints vivid
characters caught in treacherous, suffocating circumstances, and
never skimps on the details of the technology.”
“Dunmore’s compelling work is straightforward and easy to
read. Abundant illustrations, including photographs, reproduc-
tions, and other visuals, keep the interest high and the pages
turning.” —School Library Journal
• New in paper
Through gripping text and powerful images, this chronicle traces
the evolution of the submarine and the history of under-the-seas
warfare. Harrowing tales of a submerged death and eerie images
of ghost ships are haunting, yet the daring stories of the vessels
and their inhabitants invoke a nostalgic courage, allowing the
reader to reflect on a sunken, dark fate that is rarely mentioned.
State-of-the-art underwater photographs, accompanied by
archival images and cutaway diagrams, answer many questions
about why each submarine sank and make this the definitive
illustrated history.
Spencer Dunmore is a historian and a novelist who specializes in
military history. He is the author of Bomb Run, Final Approach,
In Great Waters, and Squadron and the coauthor of Exploring
the Lusitania. He lives in Burlington, Ontario. Dr. Robert D.

gadgets and gizmos
A Field Guide
to Automotive Technology
Ed Sobey
• Co-op available
Written for mechanical novices who may not know their catalytic
converters from their universal joints, this practical guide provides a
basic understanding of how automobiles function. Devices are
grouped according to their “habitats”—under the hood, inside the
car, and more—to help identify the technology in question. Solving
automotive puzzles such as where exactly does a dipstick dip and
what is rack and pinion steering, this handy reference illuminates
what’s going on under the hood without all that grime and grease.
Ed Sobey is the author of A Field Guide to Household Technology,
A Field Guide to Roadside Technology, and The Way Toys Work.
He lives in Redmond, Washington.

A Practical Guide to Planning for the Best Half
of Your Life
Jan Warner and Jan Collins
Addressing the various issues associated with aging, this manual
facilitates the process of choosing professionals who can aid in
the development of a plan that is sufficiently flexible to maxi-
mize options. Consisting of a series of documents prepared
according to the reader’s specifications, this comprehensive guide
ensures that aging and retirement are dealt with as seamlessly as
possible. With topics ranging from how to avoid family power
struggles and dealing with Medicaid to discussing the viability of
a nursing home and knowing when to update documents, this
resource is an essential tool in creating a detailed plan to deal
with the problems and crises that aging inevitably brings.

What is this “plan”? Simply put, it is a series of documents ISBN: 9781884956966
prepared to your specifications that will: 1) allow maximum RIGHTS: WORLD
flexibility to trusted persons to make financial decisions LINDEN PUBLISHING/QUILL DRIVER BOOKS JUNE
should you, the signer, become incapacitated and unable to
make decisions; 2) provide directions to a trusted person to
make your health care decisions according to your wishes,
should you be unable to express your wishes; and 3) ensure
that at your death, your remaining assets flow to those you
intend.
Why do you need a plan? Because without a plan in place: (1)
no one is in charge if you become incapacitated; (2) there is
opportunity for emotional and physical abuse; (3) court-
imposed restrictions would be needed that take away the abili-
ty to plan; (4) there would be significant additional expense;
and (5) assets may well go to the wrong people.
The goal of the plan is straightforward: To put your directions
in writing, clearly and concisely, so that if you become unable
to make your decisions, there will be an orderly transfer of
authority should you become incapacitated. Incapacity, of
course, is no longer an unlikely occurrence, given the fact that
the United States population is getting older.
