Александр Солженицын Людмила Сараскина
 Молодая гвардия. Жизнь замечательных людей: биография продолжается. Александр Исаевич Солженицын - редкий в современной словесности пример писателя-трибуна, писателя-моралиста. Его биография вместила в себя войну и лагеря, Нобелевскую премию и преследования, завершившиеся изгнанием из СССР. 20 лет, проведенные в эмиграции, не разорвали связь Солженицына с родиной - сразу после триумфального возвращения в Москву он включился в общественную жизнь, напряженно размышляя о том, "как нам обустроить Россию". Не смягчая выражений, не стараясь угодить власть имущим, он много раз вызывал на себя огонь критики справа и слева, но сохранил высокий моральный авторитет и звание живого классика современной русской литературы. К 90-летию А.И.Солженицына приурочен выход его первой полной биографии, созданной известной писательницей и историком литературы Л.И.Сараскиной на основе уникальных архивных документов, бесед с самим Солженицыным и членами его семьи....

Autism's False Prophets: Bad Science, Risky Medicine, and the Search for a Cure Paul A. Offit
 A London researcher was the first to assert that the combination measles-mumps-rubella vaccine known as MMR caused autism in children. Following this "discovery," a handful of parents declared that a mercury-containing preservative in several vaccines was responsible for the disease. If mercury caused autism, they reasoned, eliminating it from a child's system should treat the disorder. Consequently, a number of untested alternative therapies arose, and, most tragically, in one such treatment, a doctor injected a five-year-old autistic boy with a chemical in an effort to cleanse him of mercury, which stopped his heart instead. Children with autism have been placed on stringent diets, subjected to high-temperature saunas, bathed in magnetic clay, asked to swallow digestive enzymes and activated charcoal, and injected with various combinations of vitamins, minerals, and acids. Instead of helping, these therapies can hurt those who are most vulnerable, and particularly in the case of......
