This I Need To Know is one writer's view of the descent of the western literary tradition. Writers and artists are but the scaffolding upon which our common literary heritage is built. Each of us places a brick in the edifice and then fades away, leaving the structure enriched to the extent of the individual contributions. Appendix I is the author's play Oedipus on 11th Street with a teaching guide that is both entertaining and valuable when teaching Oedipus in the classroom. Appendix II is the author's play Cannibals with teaching guide, based on the trilogy The Oresteia by Aeschylus. The play is an example of the adaptation of a classic Greek drama to the modern theater written in a pseudo-classical style.

By William Young
The continuity issue has been a theme in German historiography for half a century. Historians have examined the foreign policy of Wilhelmine and Nazi Germany that led to two world wars. Dr. William Young examines the continuity of German Foreign Office influence in the formulation of foreign policy under the leadership of Otto von Bismarck (1862-1890), Kaiser William II (1888-1918), the Weimar Republic (1919-1933), and Adolf Hitler (1933-1945). He stresses the role and influence of strong German leaders in the making of policy and the conduct of foreign relations. German Diplomatic Relations 1871-1945 will be of value to individuals interested in the history of Germany, Modern Europe, and International Relations.

F MEANS FLOUNDERING aims at traditional and non-traditional (returning adult) students beginning college with little idea of what a student must do. Professor Swanson grew from nearly flunking out of his first semester in college to graduating from college; eventually earning a master's and a doctorate as well as becoming a college professor. Becoming a more efficient and effective student is built on seven essential components: know (1) where you are going, (2) what's going on in the classroom, (3) how to listen and what to listen for, (4) how to learn, (5) how to prepare for tests, (6) how to take tests, and (7) how to use your time efficiently. Most how-to-study books overlook the importance of listening in the classroom. Simply saying, "Listen carefully," or "Pay attention," is not enough for most students. When students listen effectively, they can learn what they need to know and what is going to be on the test. Students who get better grades are not smarter; they listen better. Knowing what you're doing as a student makes school much easier. Dr. Swanson always told his classes, "If I could learn to get better grades, almost anyone can."
