Complete Book Of Turkish Cooking
First published in 1995. The main claim to interest of any cuisine is, of course, the stimulation it gives to the appetite and the satisfaction it provides to the palate. But food, properly considered, is not a simple matter of preparation and consumption, which are often complex undertakings in themselves; it also touches upon religious prescriptions and customs, aesthetic tastes, geographic and climatic conditions, social stratification and prosperity. The integration of food with social, religious, and cultural life was certainly very marked with the Ottoman Turks, and even though the state and civilization they created have crumbled, much of their gastronomical legacy survives in present-day Turkey. To place the delicacies of Turkish cuisine in historical perspective, and to enable the users of this book to supplement the delights of the palate with the pleasures of historical reminiscence, the author invites them to peruse this survey pf food in Turkish history, or-looked at somewhat differently-Turkish history in food.

A Disciplined Passion
Beginning with a friend and colleague's reminiscences of Keith Garebian's early teaching years at a Catholic high school in Montreal, this collection ranges from accolades and detailed overviews by a variety of distinguished artists and writers. Garebian has consistently revealed, in his daily practice, as theatre and literary critic, biographer, and poet "the heat of so much disciplined passion." The collection stands as a testament to an intense zest and respect for the issues and the artist being addressed - an artist whose work has passionately taken on complex issues ranging from illness, to sexuality, and genocide.

The Lesbian and Gay Movements
Throughout their relatively short history, lesbian and gay movements in the United States have endured searing conflicts over whether to embrace assimilationist or liberationist strategies. The Lesbian and Gay Movements explores this dilemma in both contemporary and historical contexts. Rimmerman tackles the challenging issue of what constitutes movement "effectiveness" and how "effective" the assimilationist and liberationist strategies have been in three contentious policy arenas: the military ban, same-sex marriage, and AIDS. Since the first edition in 2007, the landscape of lesbian and gay movements and rights has seen enormous changes. The thoroughly revised second edition includes updated discussion of LGBT movements' undertakings in, as well the Obama administration's response to, HIV/AIDS policy, the fight to legalize same-sex marriage and overturn the Defense of Marriage Act, and the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell."

The Man who Found the Money
John Stewart Kennedy (1830-1909), a Scots immigrant and entrepreneur, was a pioneer in this building boom. His rise to prosperity occurred because of his ability to mobilize the capital; in the end he helped create railroads that still form part of the backbone of America's transportation network. By the time he was thirty-eight, Kennedy had formed his own banking company and had taken advantage of the booming economy.
