When a saint is your matchmaker, it'd be a sin not to fall in love.Elderly Peg McMaster has been praying for a wife for her handsome, womanizing son, Gerry. When Anne Lyons arrives to take care of Peg on St. Anne's Day, the octogenarian believes that Anne is the answer to her prayers.Against her better judgment, Anne finds herself falling in love with Gerry. Can she get beyond her past? Can she trust him with her heart?Can a man like Gerry, who goes through lovers faster than a premenstrual woman goes through chocolates, ever commit?Read St. Anne's Day now!

Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute on [title], held in Bodrum, Turkey, Sept.-Oct. 1993. Leading researchers present new material and new results with regard to hot and dense nuclear matter. Essentially, they investigate how matter may have been formed and what its properties were just

During July 1990, a group of 83 physicists from 43 laboratories in 21 countries met in Erice to read 16 papers on the future of high energy physics, and to dispute differences. The main lecturers were T.D. Lee, L. Cifarelli, Y. Dokshitzer and A. Ringwald. The 200 TeV machine will be the next energy

Papers from the July 1993 workshop treat topics such as field theory, geometric quantization and symplectic geometry, coherent states methods, holomorphic representation theory, Poisson structures, non-commutative geometry, and supersymmetry. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

The Encyclopedia of Public Choice offers a detailed and comprehensive account of the subject that deals with the intersection of economics and political science. Its fruitful exchange among ethics, moral and political philosophy, and law, as well as economics and political science, examines the image of man as a purposive and rational actor. Its balanced coverage, which reflects the various public choice methodologies and approaches, is thoughtful, comprehensive, lively, and original. It will be the definitive reference source for decades to come.Volume I includes biographies of the major figures in public choice, those who set the scene for the disciplines and those who have made major contributions to its development and essays written by leading senior public choice scholars. Their important, and occasionally controversial, themes offer in-depth analysis and reflection beyond the scope of standard works. Volume II defines in detail the core concepts associated with the discipline. Advisory Board: James M. Buchanan, George Mason University; Bernard Grofman, University of California, Irvine; Arye L. Hillman, Bar-Ilan University; Martin Paldam, Aarhus University; William F. Shughart II, University of Mississippi; Robert D. Tollison, Clemson University; Dennis C.

Proceedings of the symposium on [title], held at Hakone, Japan in November 1991. In between the introductory lecture on muscle contraction and the summary and conclusion (both by A.F. Huxley) are primary sections devoted to the structural basis of myofilament sliding; regulatory mechanisms of contra

In 20 papers from an April 1992 symposium at the Thrombosis Research Institute in London, biochemists, pharmacologists, cell biologists, and clinicians synthesize the recent surge of new information about the molecular mechanism of platelet activity. Among the topics are agonist receptors and G prot

Proceedings of the Fourth International Industrial Symposium on the Supercollider, March 1992, Atlanta, Georgia.
