Though its Sunday magazine remains lightweight, the spiky, liberal-leaning Book Review is winning raves...
...perchance you overlooked the fact that actors MICHAEL DOUGLAS, 55, and CATHERINE ZETA-JONES, 30, are dating, it was not for lack of their public appearances. Political, musical, charity or movie event--count them in. Their itinerary just these past few weeks...
