Thus  public defender Mary Choy is shocked to be assigned to a rare murder case.

The Boat of a Million YearsThe Boat of a Million Years

The Boat of a Million Years is a science fiction novel nominated for the Nebula Award for Best Novel that same year . It was also nominated for the Hugo Award for Best Novel and the Prometheus Award in 1990.

Early in human history, certain individuals were born who live on, unaging, undying, through the centuries and millenia. We follow them through over 2000 years, up to our time and beyond-to the promise of utopia, and to the challenge of the stars.

A milestone in modern science fiction, a New York Times Notable Book on its first publication in 1989, this is one of a great writer's finest works.

Don't Make Me Think: A Common Sense Approach to Web Usability, 2nd EditionDon't Make Me Think: A Common Sense Approach to Web Usability, 2nd Edition

The title of the book is its chief personal design premise. All of the tips, techniques, and examples presented revolve around users being able to surf merrily through a well-designed site with minimal cognitive strain. Readers will quickly come to agree with many of the book's assumptions, such as "We don't read pages--we scan them" and "We don't figure out how things work--we muddle through." Coming to grips with such hard facts sets the stage for Web design that then produces topnotch sites.
