BETTER HOMES AND GARDENS FAMILY MEDICAL GUIDE $2.00

The Better Homes and Gardens Family Medical Guide is a reference to
which you may turn for authoritative information about health problems
that arise from time to time in your family and personal life, as well
as about practical matters of appropriate home care, prevention of
disease, maintenance of health, and recognition of illness leading to
prompt treatment by a physician who has the great resources of modern
medicine at his and your disposal. The illustrations illuminate the
wondrous mechanisms of the body and they identify structures concerned
with particular conditions. We explain unfamiliar technical terms;
none have we avoided, as many "doctor's words" are now part of the
common language.

BIORYTHM - A PERSONAL SCIENCE $2.00

"If only ... There are few more common or poignant phrases. We speak
those words when we have accidents, miss opportunities, witness
disasters, or whenever we are regretfully surprised by events in our
own lives or in those of others. We would speak them much less often
if we had a deeper understanding of the roots of human behavior and
the causes of human frailty; some way to increase our knowledge of
what people are likely to do and what may happen to them. It is
exactly this kind of knowledge and understanding that biorhythm
offers. - From The Introduction

The Gunslinger by Stephen King $0.50

This heroic fantasy is set in a world of ominous landscape and macabre
menace that is a dark mirror of our own. A spellbinding tale of good
versus evil, it features one of Stephen King's most powerful
creations-The Gunslinger, a haunting figure who embodies the qualities
of the lone hero through the ages, from acient myth to frontier
western legend.

The Gunslinger's quest involves the pursuit of The Man in Black, a
liaiason with the sexually ravenous Alice, and a friendship with the
kid from earth called Jake. Both grippingly realistic and eerily
dreamlike, here is stunning proof of Stephen King's storytelling
sorcery.

Viewpoints - from Library of Congress $1.99

In May 1962 the Library of Congress presented an exhibition from its
collections of prints and photographs entitled "Viewpoints," assembled
to coincide with the annual convention of the Special Libraries
Association held in Washington that year. The exhibition indicated the
scope of the collections and suggested the desirability of a
publication at a later date that would make known to a wider audience
the extent and availability of the holdings in the Prints and
Photographs Division.
While there are more items in this guide than there were in the
exhibition, the title used in 1962 again serves to indicate the
various approaches and the broad range of subjects found in the work
of printmakers and photographers.
The impact of published reproductions cannot be as great as that of
the original works, but they can serve as a guide to the range and
kinds of collections available and remind viewers how richly rewarding
the total experience of the originals, in their true sizes and colors
and tonalities, can be.
Publication of this book at this time also marks the 75th anniversary
of the formal commencement of activity in the field of visual arts in
the Library. Public exhibitions became possible only after the Library
had been moved from its overcrowded quarters in the Capitol to its new
building, which was officially put into service November 1, 1897.
Before that date, on July 1, a Division of Prints had been established
by Congressional authorization. By mid-1898 visitors to the Library
were being offered exhibits of items of special interest from the
considerable collections of prints already in the Library's custody.
By 1901 there had been 30 exhibitions of prints and since that time
there has been a continuing series of exhibitions reflecting and
illustrating the collections indicated on the pages that follow.
Many members of the Prints and Photographs Division assisted in the
selection of the works represented in this book and provided the
research upon which the captions are based. - From The Forward
