Law in Social Work Practice (The Nelson-Hall Series in Social Welfare)
By
Andrea Saltzman
David M. Furman

I do not recommend this book. I find it to be so incredibly outdated it is almost obsolete. (Yes, I am bitter that I am reading this when I could be reading something fun regarding the Unification of Silla or how to make my own tin ties)

~CF

P.S. to Saltzman + Furman on the off chance you are on this site and reading this: I am sure this text was cutting edge a few years ago, but in 2010, we actually ARE able to research court cases online. No major offense intended. ~CF

I'm reading a really great book about Queen Victoria and Prince Albert called "We Two: Victoria and Albert: Rulers, Partners, Rivals " by Gillian Gill.

I'm a huge history buff and have always been curious about the Queen and Empress whose name was given to an era in Great Britain. I've found this book to be an interesting and excellent read and I can hardly put it (the Kindle version) down!!

Miss Scarlett:
It is one of his very best by far! I am close to wrapping it up...I would be delighted to mail it to you if you would like! PM me your address. After you read it pass it onto someone else for me - that is all I ask. And...I would love to talk with someone about their thoughts on the layers of symbolism!

You can never read too much! I'm a "book whore" and have been all my life. I love getting lost in one to the point of losing track of time. It's not uncommon for me to have at least 3 going and there are usually several in my bed. To quote Jefferson "I cannot live without books."

Do you stuff books under your pillows?

I am re-reading The Last of the Mohicans by James Fenimore Cooper. Pretty good so far. My library books are due in a few days and this is tiding me over till I can get up there. I love to escape into books too.

This is the first time I am rereading it since I finished the entire series. I have to say that this time through knowing now the various betrayals, back story, subterfuge and underpinnings it makes it a different book. I am actually in the process of rereading the entire series.

Occasionally they find their way under the pillows. More often they are made up into the bed. I've been known to wake up hugging one like a teddy bear.

I've read The Last of the Mohicans and enjoyed it tremendously. I cannot have any other distractions when reading it though. Cooper likes detail, lots of detail.
