The way our ordering system works, new items trickle in over a period of months and I usually have a pretty eclectic mix of materials on my 'new' cart. Sometimes, however, recurring themes seem to pop up. Here are a few of the themes for this week:
Clean up your boat! Boat Cosmetics Made Simple: how to improve and maintain a boat's appearance by Sherri Board and Get Rid of Boat Odors: a boat owner's guide to marine sanitation systems and other sources of aggravation and odor by Peggie Hall. I could draw attention to the fact that these are both written by women, but I won't bother.
Kids and the Internet How to Protect Your Children on the Internet: a road map for parents and teachers by Gregory Smith and Logged On and Tuned Out: a nontechie's guide to parenting a tech-savvy generation by Vicki Courtney. Paying attention to what your kids are doing is always the first step.
The problem with this country is...fill in the blank. Nanny State: how food fascists, teetotaling do-gooders, priggish moralists and other boneheaded bureaucrats are turning America into a nation of children by David Harsanyi and Overtreated: why too much medicine is making us sicker and poorer by Shannon Brownlee
Learning Disabilities The K&W Guide to Colleges for Students with Learning Disabilities by Marybeth Kravets and Imy F. Wax and Dyslexia: how to survive and succeed at work by Dr. Sylvia Moody. Learning disabilities aren't just an issue for public schools.
