Why Men Die First
by Marianne J. Legato
In her ground-breaking book, Why Men Die First, Dr. Legato combines years of advanced research in the study of genetics, biochemistry and the gendered brain and renders these fascinating findings into a highly accessible, intriguing primer on the contemporary woman.
Dr. Legato clearly illustrates the fascinating connection between gender-specific hormones and brain function as it pertains to the experience of stress, intimacy and the onset of disease. Laced with interviews and the latest science and opinion on this subject delivered from leading scientists such as Nobel Laureates Marshall Nirenberg and Eric Kandell, Legato applies a fresh new lens on topics as diverse as language conception, risk-taking behaviors, heart disease and competitive behavior patterns, depression and procreation, creating a model of female development all her own.

Fall Down Laughing
by David L. Lander
In 1978, David "Squiggy" Lander , the star of the hit sitcom Laverne & Shirley, agreed to make a celebrity appearance for a Multiple Sclerosis fundraiser in upstate New York. Knowing next to nothing about the disease, he asked the telethon director, "Why would anyone give money to MS if they already gave to Jerry's kids?"
"Anyone can get MS," the director replied. Little did Lander know how prophetic this conversation would be. Fall Down Laughing: How Squiggy Caught Multiple Sclerosis and Didn't Tell Nobody is the often poignant, always humorous account of Lander's courageous struggle with MS, from his desperate search for a cure to his 16 years of silence on his affliction to his decision to go public with his illness.
