[ha-Safran]: My Life In Seven Languages
My Life In Seven Languages by George P. Fletcher George P. Fletcher is considered to be one of today's leading legal scholars in the fields of torts and criminal law, in particular, comparative and international criminal law. Reflecting on the events in his personal and professional life during the past 70 years, the linguistic dimension clearly dominates and overshadows these activities. Growing up in the United States at a time when English was considered to be the only language needed, Fletcher mastered six additional languages. As his father, Fleischer Miklos, always told him, The more languages you know, the more personalities you have. As a result of his fluency, he was thrust to the forefront of the international legal world. My Life in Seven Languages, a lingustic memoir, probes Fletcher's legal experiences and family relationships that would not have otherwise been possible as a mono-linguist. George P. Fletcher is the Cardozo Professor of Jurisprudence at Columbia Law School. * Imprint: Mazo Publishers * Author: George P.

[ha-Safran]: Traditions and encounters
A social studies teacher here showed me a new textbook that he had received for review. It is called Traditions and Encounters: a global perspective on the past , edited by Bentley and Ziegler and published by McGraw Hill. (AP edition). It shows a map of Israel and Phoenicia on page 38 which labels the entire area Palestine. I would like to make others aware of this inaccuracy so that the publisher will receive many emails and will correct this . Thank you.

Re: [ha-Safran]: Article by Anne Roiphe
Dear Chaya, f it is helpful, I beleive that the date of publication is: January 12, 1996. This information was obtained from p. 112 of Two Jews, three opinions: a collection of twentieth-century American Jewish quotations.-[via Google Books]. My institution does not carry that date.

Re: [ha-Safran]: SSC Librarians in particular: Really old books
Ann, A couple of years ago, there was a hasafran message about sending Jewish materials to prisons for Jewish prisoners. That's where I've been sending my books (though I have to say I've never heard back from them that they received the boxes). http://www.jewishprisonerservices.org/dormantjudaica.htm. I also recently read a post about sending them to China, but I haven't followed up on that yet. In both cases, you have to pay postange. My paid job is in an academic library (I run my congregational library as a volunteer), and we just sent almost 1,000 boxes to Better World Books. They certainly don't want that many, and it was a special case on our part, but they do have minimum. The plan is that they sell the books, you get 15% of the sale, and 5% goes to a predetermined literacy program (I chose Room to Read). They will send the boxes, and they pay shipping.

RE: [ha-Safran]: SSC Librarians in particular: Really old books
I've sold some to interested Judaic booksellers, had book sales, but given most of them to Jewish Prisoners International: www.jewishprisonerservices.org However, when I say most, I really haven't made a dent in my deselection and we desperately need space on our shelves for newer books. I also am keeping any that I deem essential and/or reserving some for an internal historical collection.
