...military and science school, Polytechnique has a slightly uneven gender ratio—9:1—and I received a very warm welcome. But not only were the students friendly and eager to include me in their activities and campus life, the administration also went out of its way to make sure that matters went smoothly, picking me up from the Metro when I first arrived and even helping me arrange an independent internship alongside my classes...

...book's pacing is uneven - slow at first, rushed at the end - but full of sharply observed detail. In their craving for status and profit, the Lohias prefigure that élite caste of financial risk takers who still - as we are all now painfully aware - determine the course of the world economy.

...thought it wasn't. I thought it had died in 2004, after the double deathblows of Star Trek: Insurrection (the second-to-last movie; I considered Nemesis just posthumous galvanic twitching) and the uneven last series, Enterprise. Now an 11th Trek film is nearly upon us - it opens May 8 and is helmed by J.J.
