This short book took a long time to realize, and is the result of the efforts of many people. I'd first like to thank my colleagues at the Division on Addiction, Sarah Nelson, Heather Gray, Julia Braverman, Matt Tom, and Tasha Chandler, who provided support and encouragement to me as Responsible Drinking for Women evolved from an abstract idea to its final draft. My family was equally important to the completion of Responsible Drinking for Women. My husband, David, in particular, provided me the time and space to think through the issues I wanted to address. I also would like to thank Julie Silver for inviting me to be a part of Harvard Health Publications' excellent resources and publications. Her ongoing belief in Responsible Drinking for Women ensured its completion. Finally, I would like to say a special thank you to Howard Shaffer for introducing me to the study of addictive behavior, and offering guidance, patience, and collegiality over the years. He provided me valuable insight into Responsible Drinking for Women's clinical aspects. I am so grateful for my experiences since we met, and for that, I cannot thank him enough.

Arcanum 101
Fifteen-year-old Tomas Torres, the son of an immigrant family who are just barely making it, gets picked up by the police for doing some work for the local padrone (collector). For this work, Tomas has made $1000 a week, a lot of money by anyone's count. But what is the work? What is Tomas arrested for? Arson, but arson that cannot be explained. Tomas has a most unusual gift: he is a fire-starter--he can start fires with sheer force of will that flame from the tips of his fingers. More, he can will fireballs to hurl at his enemies or opponents, and he can incinerate any evidence. But the courts decide they have enough to convict young Tomas and send him off to a school (which Tomas believes to be a kind of jail): St. Rhiannon's School for the Gifted and Exceptional Student.
Sweeney Astray
Sweeney Astray is Seamus Heaney's version of the medieval Irish work Buile Suibhne - the first complete translation since 1913. Its hero, Mad Sweeney, undergoes a series of purgatorial adventures after he is cursed by a saint and turned into a bird at the Battle of Moira. The poetry spoken by the mad king, exiled to the trees and the slopes, is among the richest and most immediately appealing in the whole canon of Gaelic literature. Sweeney Astray not only restores to us a work of historical and literary importance but offers the genius of one of our greatest living poets to reinforce its claims on the reader of contemporary literature.

仲夏夜之梦：莎士比亚经典故事集
在欧洲，每个家庭必有两本书，一本是《圣经》，一本就是《莎士比亚全集》，而在其全集中，戏剧占了绝大部分，可以说莎士比亚更多是以其戏剧而闻名的。本书包含的十六篇故事是由莎士比亚的戏剧改编而来的，包括《仲夏夜之梦》、《李尔王》、《第十二夜》、《哈姆雷特》、《冬天的故事》等。其虽然是故事的形式，读来却丝毫不比戏剧逊色，而且更多了一些平易近人的味道。
