The trouble with history, Nick Kotlar's father tells him, is that you have to live through it before you know how it'll come out. And for Walter Kotlar, a high-level State Department official, the stakes couldn't be an ambitious congressman has accused him of treason. As Nick watches helplessly, his family's privileged world is turned upside down in a frenzy of klieg lights and banging gavels. Then one snowy night the chief witness against his father plunges to her death and his father flees, leaving only an endless mystery and the stain of his defection. It would be better, Nick is told, to think of him as dead. But twenty years later Walter Kotlar is still alive, and he enlists Molly, a young journalist, to bring Nick a disturbing message. He badly wants to see his son; after two decades of silence and isolation, he is desperate to end his own Cold War. Resentful but intrigued, Nick agrees to accompany Molly to Soviet-occupied Czechoslovakia for the painful reunion. Once in Prague, Nick finds a clandestine world where nothing is what it seems--not the beautiful city, shadowy with menace; not the woman with whom he falls in love; and most of all not the man he thinks he no longer knows, yet still knows better than anyone. For Walter Kotlar has an impossible he wants to come home and he wants Nick to help. He also has a valuable secret about what really happened the night he walked out of Nick's life--and about the deadly conspiracy that still threatens them.

Description: What if there is a You that has never seen the light of day, has never got to say, "Hey, what about me?" What if there is a You that you have never even met and certainly never permitted to just be, without fear of judgment or condemnation? What if you live your life on the sidelines in constant fear of failing to please those who forever seem to stand in judgment of you and your life? What if you discovered that you had settled for what life has served up instead of what you really wanted and needed? What if you really think and feel things you have never allowed to come out, and certainly never acted on? What if your marriage is not at all what you really emotionally want and need, but you silently stay the course anyway, selling out your hope to be happy? What if you are allowing days to turn into weeks and weeks to turn into months and months to turn into years, all adding up to a lifetime of being what some nameless, faceless world has assigned you to be? If any of these "What ifs" are true in your life, then we need to talk, and through these pages, we will. First, I have some bad news, and I have some good news. The bad news is you are making the choices that have put you in this life circumstance; the good news is you are making the choices that have put you in this life circumstance. Now is the time to make the biggest choice of your life. Through Self Matters, I will help you do just that.-- Phil McGraw, Free Press, 2001, 3, Bantam Books, 1984. Trade Paperback. Good. GOOD BOOK! MODERATE WEAR & A FEW BENDS ON COVER. LIGHTLY AGED PAGES WITH RED UNDERLINING IN TEXT. Amazon Review: This book will make you think. This is one of the most thought-provoking and eloquent books about science that I have ever read. Thomas has produced 24 essays defining what it means to be human. Through his fascination with the world, he raises a multitude of questions and points out existing uncertainties. He makes it strikingly clear that the human race has a really long way to go in order to solve the puzzles of this world. He demands solutions and answers; is there some genetic reason for the rituals that occur in nature, such as insects laying their eggs on the branches of specific trees, and then pruning these branches, thus extending the life of the trees and keeping the symbiosis in this world going from generation to generation? What is the explanation for the behavior of bees? How do you explain experiments done on people where, under hypnosis, they are told that their hands are being scalded with an iron, but in fact it is a wooden pencil, and in a short time their whole hand is red and marked? From cells to music, Thomas captures the soul of the reader and opens the door to reality with his thoughts on nature and human consciousness. This book will make you think, and the questions will linger in your mind., Bantam Books, 1984, 2.5, Columbia University Press, 1960. Trade Paperback. Good. GOOD BOOK!
