Summary
Bash Dibra, the author of this guide to communicating with dogs, is a renowned pet expert hired by famous Hollywood personalities. As a child, Dibra was trapped in a Yugoslavia prison camp where he won the friendship of hostile guard dogs. After fleeing Yugoslavia, he decided to spend the rest of his life learning about and training the dog's savage ancestor, the wild wolf. Assuming that wolves and dogs share similar thought processes, Dibra has applied his research on wolves to domestic dogs. In this book he provides numerous suggestions to readers who wish to enhance communication with their pet dogs.

Publisher's Notes
DOGSPEAK is designed to help dog owners have closer communication with their dogs so that they can "take advantage of the extraordinary gift our dogs so that they can "take advantage of the extraordinary gift our dogs offer us--the unconditional love most humans cant' even comprehend." Bash shows that while dogs are trained to understand people, people must also learn to understand their dogs. Interpreting the barks, facial expressions and body language of DogSpeak will allow regular "conversations" and create a unique, unbreakable bond between owner and pet.

Midnight in Sicily
by Peter Robb
In late 1995 Giulio Andreotti, seven-time prime minister of Italy and once called "the finest political mind in Europe", went on trial both for murder and for his association with the Sicilian Mafia. With hundreds of witnesses still to be called, there is no end in sight to this corruption scandal, the largest ever in Italian history. Midnight in Sicily chronicles the development of these events, exposing how from the end of World War II to the present Italy's politicians became the accomplices of an organization involved in extortion, drugs, kidnapping, torture, murder, and terrorism. And there are links to international secret services, America, corrupt financiers, and the Vatican. Robb interviewed dozens of anti-Mafia politicians and prosecutors, as well as many private citizens enmeshed in an all-pervasive web. This story of the Mafia and its political friends is also the story of Sicily, its opulent coasts, its stark interior, its extraordinary art and rich food, and its layers of culture from east and west.

Saucerful of Secrets
by Nicholas Schaffner
Saucerful of Secrets is the first in-depth biography of this very private group. At the heart of the saga is Syd Barrett, the groups brilliant founder, whose public decline into shattered incoherence--attributable in part to his marathon use of LSD--is one of the tragedies of rock history. The making of Dark Side of the Moon and Floyds other great albums is recounted in detail, as are the mounting of "The Wall" and the creation of the flying pigs, crashing planes, "Mr. Screen" and the other elements of their spectacular stage shows. The book also explores the many battles between bass player/song writer Roger Waters and the rest of the group, leading up to Waters acrimonious departure for a solo career in 1984 and his unsuccessful attempt to disolve the group he had left behind.Saucerful of Secrets is an electrifying account of this ground-breaking, mind-bending group, covering every period of their career from earliest days to latest recordings. It is full of revealing information that will be treasured by all who love Pink Floyd's music.
