The American way of eating : undercover at Walmart, Applebee's, farm fields and the dinner table
McMillan, Tracie.
New York, NY : Scribner, 2012.
"What if you couldn't afford nine dollar tomatoes? That was the question
award-winning journalist Tracie McMillan couldn't escape as she watched the
debate about America's meals unfold, one that urges us to pay food's true cost
-
which is to say, pay more. So in 2009 McMillan embarked on a groundbreaking
undercover journey to see what it takes to eat well in America. For nearly a
year, she worked, ate, and lived alongside the working poor to examine how
Americans eat when price matters."--P. 2 of cover.

Bleed for me
Robotham, Michael, 1960-
New York : Mulholland Books, 2012.
"Psychologist Joe O'Loughlin is being pushed away. His marriage is ending. Charlie, his eldest daughter, will barely speak to him. And Charlie's
rebellious best friend Sienna is getting into more and more trouble, and
taking
Charlie along for the ride. Sienna has been almost like family to O'Loughlin-a
troubled child who for years spent more time in the O'Loghlin residence than
her
own home. O'Loughlin's worst fears are confirmed when Sienna turns up at his
front door, traumatized and covered in blood. The police find a major piece of
the puzzle at Sienna's house: her father Ray Hegarty, a celebrated former
police
officer, murdered. The blood covering Sienna was her father's. She can't
remember what happened, but, at the same time, doesn't mourn her father's
death.
O'Loughlin vows to unearth the dark secrets of Sienna's mind, hoping his
efforts
will win back the confidence of a daughter he may be in danger of losing
forever. But as the accusations fly, the line between victim and accused
begins
to blur. When the detective in charge of the case seems all too eager to lay
the
blame at Sienna's feet rather than malign the honor of a respected former
colleague, O'Loughlin begins to make his own inquiries. But each step he takes
toward the truth also brings him closer to the path of a manipulative killer
unlike anything he has ever encountered"-- Provided by publisher.

Bringing up bébé : one American mother discovers the wisdom of
French parenting
Druckerman, Pamela.
New York : Penguin Press, 2012.
"The secret behind France's astonishingly well-behaved children. When American journalist Pamela Druckerman has a baby in Paris, she doesn't aspire
to
become a "French parent." French parenting isn't a known thing, like French
fashion or French cheese. Even French parents themselves insist they aren't
doing anything special. Yet, the French children Druckerman knows sleep
through
the night at two or three months old while those of her American friends take
a
year or more. French kids eat well-rounded meals that are more likely to
include
braised leeks than chicken nuggets. And while her American friends spend their
visits resolving spats between their kids, her French friends sip coffee while
the kids play. Motherhood itself is a whole different experience in France.
There's no role model, as there is in America, for the harried new mom with no
life of her own. French mothers assume that even good parents aren't at the
constant service of their children and that there's no need to feel guilty
about
this. They have an easy, calm authority with their kids that Druckerman can
only
envy. Of course, French parenting wouldn't be worth talking about if it
produced
robotic, joyless children. In fact, French kids are just as boisterous,
curious,
and creative as Americans. They're just far better behaved and more in command
of themselves. While some American toddlers are getting Mandarin tutors and
preliteracy training, French kids are-by design-toddling around and
discovering
the world at their own pace. With a notebook stashed in her diaper bag,
Druckerman-a former reporter for the Wall Street Journal sets out to learn the
secrets to raising a society of good little sleepers, gourmet eaters, and
reasonably relaxed parents. She discovers that French parents are extremely
strict about some things and strikingly permissive about others. And she
realizes that to be a different kind of parent, you don't just need a
different
parenting philosophy. You need a very different view of what a child actually
is. While finding her own firm "non", Druckerman discovers that children-
including her own-are capable of feats she'd never imagined."-- Provided by

Enemies : a history of the FBI
Weiner, Tim.
New York : Random House, c2012.
Enemies is the first definitive history of the FBI's secret intelligence
operations, from an author whose work on the Pentagon and the CIA won him the
Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award. We think of the FBI as America's
police force. But secret intelligence is the Bureau's first and foremost
mission. Enemies is the story of how presidents have used the FBI to conduct
political warfare, and how the Bureau became the most powerful intelligence
service the United States possesses. Here is the hidden history of America's
hundred-year war on terror. The FBI has fought against terrorists, spies,
anyone
it deemed subversive--and sometimes American presidents. The FBI's secret
intelligence and surveillance techniques have created a tug-of-war between
national security and civil liberties. It is a tension that strains the very
fabric of a free republic.--Publisher description.

Gypsy boy : my life in the secret world of the Romany Gypsies
Walsh, Mikey.
New York : Thomas Dunne Books/St. Martin's Press, 2012.
Mikey was born into a Romany Gypsy family. They lived in a closeted community, and little is known of their way of life. After centuries of
persecution Gypsies are wary of outsiders and if you choose to leave you can
never come back. This is something Mikey knows all too well. Growing up, he
didn't go to school, he seldom mixed with non-Gypsies and the caravan became
his
world. Eventually Mikey was forced to make an agonising decision, to stay and
keep secrets, or escape to find somewhere to belong. His father and
grandfather
were champion bareknuckle boxers in England's Gypsy community. But Mikey had
no
interest in fighting. He was proud of his heritage and loved his mother and
sister, but as he grew older he came to realize he had a secret that would
never
be accepted: he was gay. This memoir reveals, for the first time, what life
is
really like among the Romany Gypsies. It is a culture apart, one that is
equally
more criminal and more puritanical than our own.

James Madison and the making of America
Gutzman, Kevin Raeder, 1963-
New York : St. Martin's Press, 2012.
This is the first full-length biography, in over a decade, of James Madison, our fourth President and icon of the conservative movement. In it,
the
author, a historian looks beyond Madison's traditional moniker, "The Father of
the Constitution", to find a more complex and realistic portrait of this
influential Founding Father. Instead of an idealized portrait of Madison, the
author treats readers to the story of a man who often performed his founding
deeds in spite of himself: Madison's fame rests on his participation in the
writing of The Federalist Papers and his role in drafting the Bill of Rights
and
Constitution. Yet, he thought that the Bill of Rights was unnecessary and
insisted that it not be included in the unamended Constitution which, he
lamented, was entirely inadequate and, likely, would soon fail. Madison helped
to create the first American political party, the first party to call itself
"Republican", but only after he had argued that political parties, in general,
were harmful. Madison served as Secretary of State and, then, as President
during the early years of the United States and the War of 1812; however, the
American foreign policy he implemented in 1801-1817 ultimately resulted in the
British burning down the Capitol and the White House. Virtually all of his
great
accomplishments, such as his contributions to The Federalist Papers, are now
misunderstood. His greatest legacy, the disestablishment of Virginia's state
church and adoption of the libertarian Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom,
is often omitted from discussion of his career.

The man in the Rockefeller suit : the astonishing rise and spectacular fall of a serial impostor
Seal, Mark, 1953-
New York : Viking, 2011.
A probing and cinematic exploration of an audacious impostor, Christian Gerheitsreiter, and his "talented Mr. Ripley" story as Clark Rockefeller.
The unbelievable thirty-year run of a shape-shifting con man. Clark
Rockefeller's story is a strange twist on the classic American success story
of
the self-made man--because Clark Rockefeller was totally made up. Born in a
small village in Germany, Christian Karl Gerhartsreiter was obsessed with
getting to America. At seventeen, he flew into the country on dubious student
visa documents. Over the next thirty years, boldly assuming a series of false
identities, he moved up the social ladder across the country--culminating in a
twelve-year marriage to a Harvard MBA who believed she'd wed a Rockefeller.
The
imposter charmed his way into exclusive clubs and financial institutions--
working on Wall Street, showing off an extraordinary art collection--until his
marriage ended and he was arrested for kidnapping his daughter, which exposed
his past of astounding deceptions as well as a chilling connection to the
bizarre mid-1980s disappearance of a California couple.--From publisher

The murder of the century : the Gilded Age crime that scandalized a city
and sparked the tabloid wars
Collins, Paul, 1969-
New York : Crown, c2011.
On Long Island, a farmer finds a duck pond turned red with blood. On the
Lower East Side, two boys playing at a pier discover a floating human torso
wrapped tightly in oilcloth. Blueberry pickers near Harlem stumble upon neatly
severed limbs in an overgrown ditch. Clues to a horrifying crime are turning
up
all over New York, but the police are baffled: There are no witnesses, no
motives, no suspects. The grisly finds that began on the afternoon of June 26,
1897, plunged detectives headlong into the era's most baffling murder mystery.
Seized upon by battling media moguls Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph
Hearst,
the case became a publicity circus. Reenactments of the murder were staged in
Times Square, armed reporters lurked in the streets of Hell's Kitchen in
pursuit
of suspects, and an unlikely trio, a hard luck cop, a cub reporter, and an
eccentric professor, all raced to solve the crime. What emerged was a
sensational love triangle and an even more sensational trial: an unprecedented
capital case hinging on circumstantial evidence around a victim whom the
police
couldn't identify with certainty, and who the defense claimed wasn't even
dead.
This book is a tale of America during the Gilded Age and a colorful re
creation
of the tabloid wars that have dominated media to this day.

Poor economics : a radical rethinking of the way to fight global poverty
Banerjee, Abhijit V.
New York : PublicAffairs, c2011.
"Billions of government dollars, and thousands of charitable organizations and NGOs, are dedicated to helping the world's poor. But much of
the work they do is based on assumptions that are untested generalizations at
best, flat out harmful misperceptions at worst. Banerjee and Duflo have
pioneered the use of randomized control trials in development economics. Work
based on these principles, supervised by the Poverty Action Lab at MIT, is
being
carried out in dozens of countries. Their work transforms certain
presumptions:
that microfinance is a cure-all, that schooling equals learning, that poverty
at
the level of 99 cents a day is just a more extreme version of the experience
any
of us have when our income falls uncomfortably low. Throughout, the authors
emphasize that life for the poor is simply not like life for everyone else: it
is a much more perilous adventure, denied many of the cushions and advantages
that are routinely provided to the more affluent"-- Provided by publisher.

Portrait of a monster : Joran van der Sloot, a murder in Peru, and the Natalee Holloway mystery
Pulitzer, Lisa Beth.
New York : St. Martin's Press, 2011.
In May 2005, Natalee Holloway disappeared from a high school trip to Aruba. Five years to the day later, 21 year old Stephany Flores Ramirez was
reported missing in Lima, Peru. Implicated in both crimes was one young man,
Joran van der Sloot. A 22 year old Dutchman, van der Sloot has become the
subject of intense scrutiny by the media and the public in the years since
2005.
He was arrested and detained by Aruban authorities in connection with the
Holloway murder, only to be released after questioning. In 2008, during a
Dutch
sting operation, he admitted to being present for Holloway's death, but later
recanted his statement. In 2010, on the five year anniversary of her
disappearance, a young business student in Peru named Stephany Flores Ramirez
disappeared, only to be found dead three days later in a hotel room,
registered
to Joran van der Sloot. He was arrested for the murder, and he confessed, but
later claimed it was coerced. This book offers a probing look at the man tied
to
two of the most sensational cases of the decade. With unprecedented access to
investigative files from law enforcement in the U.S., Aruba, Chile and Peru,
it
is a glimpse into the workings of an international manhunt and a chilling
portrait of the alleged killer within.

"Before the critically acclaimed novels Await Your Reply and You Remind Me of Me, Dan Chaon made a name for himself as a renowned writer of dazzling
short stories. Now, in Stay Awake, Chaon returns to that form for the first
time
since his masterly Among the Missing, a finalist for the National Book Award.
In
these haunting, suspenseful stories, lost, fragile, searching characters
wander
between ordinary life and a psychological shadowland. They have experienced
intense love or loss, grief or loneliness, displacement or disconnection--and
find themselves in unexpected, dire, and sometimes unfathomable situations. A
father's life is upended by his son's night terrors--and disturbing memories
of
the first wife and child he abandoned; a foster child receives a call from the
past and begins to remember his birth mother, whose actions were unthinkable;
a
divorced woman experiences her own dark version of "empty-nest syndrome"; a
young widower is unnerved by the sudden, inexplicable appearances of messages
and notes--on dollar bills, inside a magazine, stapled to the side of a tree;
and a college dropout begins to suspect that there's something off, something
sinister, in his late parents' house. Dan Chaon's stories feature scattered
families, unfulfilled dreamers, anxious souls. They exist in a twilight realm-
-
in a place by the window late at night when the streets are empty and the
world
appears to be quiet. But you are up, unable to sleep. So you stay awake"--
