Closed to the West for more than forty years, North Korea is an isolated and alien land. When Yi Sun-Kyung traveled there in the summer of 1994-the first Western journalist ever allowed in for an extended visit-she found a nation ruled by fear and a people yearning for reunification with the South. More than just a travelogue of a strange and foreign culture, however, Inside the Hermit Kingdom is in fact the story of two journeys-the first a journey to a place seldom seen and only vaguely understood, the second a journey of self-discovery for the author.

Strange voices in the night. Dead men walking. Unbreakable promises and unbeatable curses. Vampires, spirits, and sinister animals. All of these are to be found in Truly Scary Stories for Fearless Kids. Any kid who likes a good scare - and who doesn't? - will find plenty of them in this new collection of terrifying tales. 
With nearly thirty authors represented, Truly Scary Stories brings together chills and thrills both old and new. Such grand old yarns as "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" (about a certain headless horseman), "The Monkey's Paw," and "Dracula's Guest" are found alongside brand-new frights like "Lizard: The Devil's Plaything" and "Best Before". Besides short stories, there are haunting poems like "The Cremation of Sam McGee" and "The Geebung Polo Club," with rhythms that heighten the horror. 
This collection will take unsuspecting readers on a strange and surprising journey. They will visit a ship adrift on the Pacific Ocean and learn of a strange moss that grows everywhere. They will meet a weary prospector at the North Pole, burdened with a promise to a now-dead companion. They will encounter witches in a lonely mountaintop cabin, and ghouls in a murky swamp. 
Wherever they take place, many of the stories revolve around children. Kids can be found dodging cruel aunts or taking vanishing lessons from ghosts, playing with haunted electrical train sets or worrying about food rotting in the refrigerator. And just so that the terror isn't too nonstop, some of the stories are downright comical, promising laughs as well as shudders. 
Whether funny or fearsome, these stories are guaranteed to hold readers spellbound well into the night - shivering with fright and delight.

A search for human values and meaning at the millennium, Ockham`s Razor is a brilliant travel narrative that mixes philosophical speculation with commentary about the food, architecture and art of France. From Plato, Aristotle and Thomas Aquinas to Descartes, Magritte and the Internet, Wade Rowland examines some of our deepest assumptions about the nature of reality and our relationship to the world. In the summer of 1997, Rowland, an expert on technology and the new media, and in many respects disillusioned with the hyper-reality of North American culture, took his family to visit medieval historical sites throughout Southern France as a way of searching for authenticity. In Ockham`s Razor he speculates on the world view of the middle ages, a highly evolved system of thought and perception radically different from our own, and argues that efficiency is an engineering goal that reduces human beings to material objects. Such debasement causes human alienation, which is the defining condition of our age. This is very much a book for our age. (1999)
