FBI agent and forensics expert Will Graham is as good as they get. Not even a good slashing with a linoleum cutter, care of world-renowned serial killer/psychologist Hannibal Lecter, can keep him from temporarily abandoning his tranquil existence on the Florida Keys with his wife and child to track down a psychopath known as the Red Dragon. The prequel to the international best-seller THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, RED DRAGON is the first book to feature FBI agent Jack Crawford and the infamous cannibal, Hannibal Lecter.

One of the most successful self-help books of the 20th century, THE ROAD LESS TRAVELED stayed on the New York Times Best Seller List for 10 years, and has sold millions of copies. Morgan Scott Peck begins simply: "Life is difficult." His main message is that life is about change, and that personal growth is a process or a journey for which each person bears responsibility. Peck's background as a psychiatrist informs much of this book. He uses terms and concepts such as "transference" and "cathexis," and refers to case studies of his patients to illustrate his points. However, the key words in the book are simple ones that carry much weight: discipline, which he says is required to solve life's problems; love, which he reworks and clarifies in an extended meditation on what true love is and is not; and grace, which is the highest goal--an awareness of, and aspiration to a powerful force outside of us. Throughout the book, there is a call for responsibility, for values and good behavior, and for a sense of both independence and interdependence. Peck's insight into human suffering, his rigorous call for discipline, and his grasp of the importance of the spiritual dimension in a good life appeal to modern readers and make THE PATH LESS TRAVELED a work that stands out in the self-help field.
