Dean Samuels, a brilliant geophysicist, has created a computer-driven device that utilizes magnetic acceleration and gravity yield (Maggie) to achieve the miracle of time travel.

With the assistance of his lifelong friend, Guy Lazarus, Samuels is transported back to the Cretaceous period, when dinosaurs ruled the earth. Once transmission is complete, Lazarus must dismantle the equipment and move everything to a safe location before insurgents can steal the priceless technology. After narrowly escaping a devastating bomb blast and deadly pursuit, Lazarus locates his former girlfriend, Betsy Pettis, on a ranch hidden deep in the Black Hills of South Dakota and reconstructs Maggie. Now he must face the perilous mission of finding Samuels on an earth seventy million years younger and returning him to the present.

Can Lazarus successfully locate Samuels, survive a near-death encounter with a monstrous Tyrannosaurus Rex, and evade the subversive forces plotting to steal Maggie's incredible technology?

Genius! is an inspiring guide to nurturing the remarkable abilities of "attention different" (AD) children diagnosed with conditions such as autism, Asperger Syndrome, AD/HD, bipolar disorder, or Tourette Syndrome (TS). Drawing on their experiences with their own son, who has TS, George T. Lynn and Joanne Barrie Lynn offer a positive parenting philosophy and successful strategies for creating an affirmative social and emotional environment that unlocks the potential genius in 'neurologically eccentric' children. The authors emphasize the importance of identifying the signs of giftedness, providing the necessary care and mentoring, and using medication with due consideration of its benefits and limitations. They also acknowledge the need to confront the `dark side' of atypical neurology - obsessiveness, self-centredness and hyperactivity - and offer helpful advice on ensuring parents' and carers' own emotional, spiritual, and physical well-being. This book will be an essential tool for parents and carers to help bring out the best in their AD child and help him explore his full potential in life. This revised edition also includes additional material on working with older age groups.

Up until five years ago, the professional community did not think that bipolar disorder occurred in children. Children with symptoms of bipolar disorder were diagnosed as "severe ADHD", "depressed" or "oppositional defiant". Now, as it is being increasingly diagnosed, George Lynn offers a clear, practical advice on recognising the symptoms, understanding medication and accessing the necessary support at school as well as the managing the day-to-day challenges of parenting a child with bipolar disorder. As it is frequently found in combination with ADHD, Tourette Syndrome and Asperger's syndrome, the author draws on case-studies from his own psychotherapeutic practice to show what these conditions have in common, how they differ, and how they related to each other.;This book tackles the most difficult decisions parents can face, including whether to involve police or consider hospitalisation if their children are a danger to themselves and their families. At he same time, it emphasises the positive qualities these children often have and illustrates how their gifts and abilities can build their self-esteem and help them function better in society. However severe the child's symptoms

When George Lynn Cross arrived to teach botany at the University of Oklahoma in the summer of 1934, racial segregation was so strong in Norman that no African American dared remain within the city limits after sundown. Almost ten years later when Cross became president of the university, the full extent of Oklahoma's segregation laws came sharply into focus. This book is President Cross's story of the events leading to the desegregation of the University of Oklahoma in 1948, with the admission of George W. McLaurin to the Graduate School of Education. Earlier, a young black woman, Ada Lois Sipuel Fisher, had applied to the OU School of Law and been denied admission because of her race. With the help of attorneys from the NAACP she took her case to the U.S. Supreme Court. The High Court equivocated, and a ""separate but equal"" law school was hastily established in Oklahoma City as a branch of all-black Langston University. It was not until three years later - and then only after the intervention of President Cross, who personally overrode ""the law's delay"" - that Ms. Fisher was able to study at the University of Oklahoma, from which she later graduated with honors. Cross places these momentous events in historical context. The story of desegregation at the University of Oklahoma, a landmark in the continuing struggle for racial equality in the United States, makes for an engrossing book.
