If you don’t have a pencil in your hand, get one now! Don’t just read this book—write on it, study it, scrutinize it! In short, for the next six weeks, this book should be a part of your life. When you have finished the book, it should be marked-up, dog-eared, tattered and torn. Although the GRE is a difficult test, it is a very learnable test. This is not to say that the GRE is“beatable.” There is no bag of tricks that will show you how to master it overnight. .
Developmental language disorders (DLD) occur when a child fails to develop his or her native language often for no apparent reason. Delayed development of speech and/or language is one of the most common reasons for parents of preschool children to seek the advice of their family doctor. Although some children rapidly improve, others have more persistent language difficulties. These long-term deficits can adversely affect academic progress, social relationships and mental well-being.
Each chapter is written by a leading authority in the field in a format accessible to researchers, clinicians and families alike.
This book, with its focus on both theory and practice, will be invaluable to students and researchers of speech-language pathology, psychology, psychiatry, linguistics and education. It will also be of interest to practicing speech-language pathologists, clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, educational psychologists, and teachers and parents of children with developmental language disorders.
Dead Souls (Russian language: Мёртвые души) by Nikolai Gogol was first published in 1842, and is one of the most prominent works of 19th century Russian literature. Gogol himself saw it as an "epic poem in prose", and within the book as a "novel in verse". Despite supposedly completing the trilogy's second part, Gogol destroyed it shortly before his death. Although the novel ends in mid-sentence (like Sterne's Sentimental Journey), it is usually regarded as complete in the extant form.

Will Smith is a prince, and not just because he first became famous for his humorous rap music and his TV sitcom under the name "Fresh Prince." Although this African American is now a mega-star of the big screen, he's still a thoroughly decent person.
Theatre and the World bravely challenges much of today's "multicultural" theatre movement by calling attention to the post-colonial contradictions and immediacies of theatres in India. He shows how "traditions" have, in fact, been invented in the Indian theatre, and offers an inspiring alternative to this official culture in his radical reading of "traditional performance" and in his documentation of the grass-roots cultural activity of Ninasam, which, although based in the tiny village of Heggodu in Karnataka, still maintains links to the diverse cultures of the world.
