7.		REMAKING EDEN from PHOENIX Customer Review: It says in the bio the writer teaches at Princeton, but based on the writing, listless and without a compelling narrative, I can only hope the gentleman works as a subsitute teacher, rather than someone fully tenured.

14.	[no image]	The Metabolic and Molecular Bases of Inherited Disease (Volume 2) from McGraw-Hill Customer Review: This is a suitably vast book for a vast subject.
