	Thought I would give this thread a nudge I am reading, at the moment, The Burning Wire, by Jeffery Deaver. This is one in the Lincoln Rhyme series, and they are always very enjoyable. Lincoln Rhyme is a C4 (quadraplegic), Criminologist, and his cases are always very complex, but interesting. I still havn't got round to starting The Help, which I saw was still in the list of bestsellers. It was at No.5 in the Times Fiction Book List, on Saturday. Maybe I'll pack it into my hospital bag, as I will have more time to read it in there. LOLOLO Julia in Derbyshire

	'The Story of Civilisation' by Will Durant (1885 - 1981). 32 volumes published from c1935 onwards. Purchased by me in 1988 & am now on my 2nd reading of them. Well written by this well-known & respected American historian, with the inclusion of some unusual & unexpected phrases. The reader is advised to undertake one chapter at a time - such is the depth of the Author’s detailed information compacted therein. What have I learned from my troubles? One thing stands out - man was just as cruel & kind in the BC era as in the current AD generations.
