...your child's life. Remember: the issue is not strangers but strangeness. De Becker empowers parents to best protect their children from unsafe day-care centers and schools, as well as sexual predators. "As you understand how intuition helps protect your children, you'll react to smoke and not wait for fire," says De Becker. There's not a parent who wouldn't benefit from reading this wise book. --By Andrea Sachs...
...able to work with someone early on." Though careful to be discreet, Engler privately began to lobby his colleagues on the phone or in meetings, one at a time, sounding them out with an invitation and a warning, similar to what the fund raisers were hearing: Don't wait too long; when the train is leaving the station, you don't want to be the last to climb on board.

To the lucky prospective owners, I can report: AIBO is worth the wait. Five years in the making, this pup is a technophile's dream toy. He has a chip in each detachable limb. He has a camera in his nose. He chases after balls, as long as they're hot pink. He walks on all fours--a major cybernetic achievement, I'm told. He wags...
