Book Description
After Morton Dirk is forced to watch the murder of his parents, he is adopted by astate Supreme Court judge. He becomes a Harvard-educated professor of English literature, and a peerless assassin for his father’s secret political and financial organization. His hypnotic voice and a face that is difficult to recall enhance his effectiveness. His preferred method of killing is with a knife, although he is equally adept with a gun, or even his voice. To his acquaintances, Morton Dirk is a gourmet cook, an avid gardener, and a volunteer at a men’s shelter. When Morton falls in love with the wife of one of his victims, the Organization sends his mentor to eliminate the threat. The assassin tells Morton of his mission; Morton plans a trap with the help of his lover, but they find themselves in a trap already set by his teacher. The novel is fast-paced and suspenseful, and the action unpredictable. It’s a swift romp through the works of Garcia-Marquez, Baudelaire, Morrison, and Whitman; as well as Dirk’s musings on science and the workings of a superb intellect at ease in vastly contradictory worlds.

Black Child, White Child
Author: Judith D. R. Porter
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 9780674076112
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
'I don't like colored people.' 'He's lazy because he's colored.' Similar attitudes have too many echoes in American society. What distinguishes these particular comments is that they were made by preschool-age children, the former by a five-year-old white, the latter by a four-year-old black. The general public might be amazed to find that statements of this type were made by such young children, yet it is now widely accepted by social scientists that racial attitudes are learned during preschool years.

A Doctor Among the Oglala Sioux Tribe
Author: Robert H. Ruby
Publisher: U of Nebraska Press
ISBN: 0803230060
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 449
Book Description
In 1953 young surgeon Robert H. Ruby began work as the chief medical officer at the hospital on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. He began writing almost daily to his sister, describing the Oglala Lakota people he served, his Bureau of Indian Affairs colleagues, and day-to-day life on the reservation. Ruby and his wife were active in the social life of the non-white community, which allowed Ruby, also a self-trained ethnographer, to write in detail about the Oglala Lakota people and their culture, covering topics such as religion, art, traditions, and values. His frank and personal depiction of conditions he encountered on the reservation examines poverty, alcoholism, the educational system, and employment conditions and opportunities. Ruby also wrote critically of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, describing the bureaucracy that made it difficult for him to do his job and kept his hospital permanently understaffed and undersupplied. These engaging letters provide a compelling memoir of life at Pine Ridge in the mid-1950s.
