...Horowitz, who up to his death in 1989 was widely regarded as the greatest pianist of the 20th century -- maybe of all time. Still, the release by Sony Classical of a 13-CD set of all the recordings Horowitz made for Columbia Masterworks from 1962 to 1973 (when he returned to RCA Victor) offers a happy opportunity to hear afresh Horowitz's brand of keyboard magic without the imposing presence of the man. Horowitz's Columbia recordings provide a distinctive but narrow view of his art. By the early 1960s, he had shorn himself of his reputation as a fire...
...Haitian army commander Raoul Cedras drafted a ''letter of reconciliation'' to be presented to the U.S. What was offered, TIME has learned, contravened the key elements of the Governors Island accord signed in July -- the agreement that called for Cedras and Police Chief Michel Francois to resign. Aristide could return, the note proposed, but Cedras and Francois would remain in their posts, responsible only to an ''independent'' Prime Minister they had every intention of controlling. Aristide, it was clear, would be a political cripple. The letter was never sent. On Friday afternoon, when U.S. envoy Lawrence Pezzullo met with Cedras...

The American effort to create a shield against enemy missiles has given the Soviets a fresh incentive to develop new offensive weapons that would burst the remaining bonds of the arms-control process, which has been in stalemate. Yet it has also given the Soviets an incentive to return to the bargaining table and offer serious proposals in the hope of tightening the bonds of arms control around SDI itself. If there is a summit in November or December, Reagan the Star Warrior might be able to extract from Mikhail Gorbachev an agreement-in-principle for a trade...
...research program that is driven by good science rather than high-pressure politics would not hold out false hopes for large-scale population defense; and yet it still could pave the way for a grand compromise by inducing the Soviets to agree to significant cuts in offensive weapons in return for reinforcing old agreements that limit the development of defensive systems. Indeed, the Soviets have recently begun exploring ways to restrict SDI by reaffirming the ABM treaty of 1972. That approach has considerable promise since it is potentially compatible with Reagan's own public statements on SDI. Largely...
