Es soll hier nicht die gesamte Tierpsychologie in systematischer Weise dargestellt werden, es soll nicht einmal irgendeine Teilfrage der Tierpsychologie erschöpfend behandelt werden. [...] Ich habe mir die viel bescheidenere Aufgabe gestellt, einige Spezialfragen der Tierpsychologie, an denen ich mit meinen Schülern gearbeitet oder die ich in Vorlesungen behandelt habe, unter dem Gesichtspunkt der vergleichenden Psychologie darzustellen. Ich war immer darum bemüht, tierpsychologische und menschenpsychologische Fragestellungen miteinander zu verbinden, möglichst jedes Problem von beiden Seiten zu beleuchten. Es ist mir daran gelegen, durch die hiervorgelegten Studien die Fruchtbarkeit der vergleichend-psychologischen Betrachtungsweise erneut zu demonstrieren. [...] Aus dem Vorwort

My First Book of Super Powers introduces young readers to beloved DC super heroes and their awesome powers. Just as My First Book of Girl Power introduced young fans to female super heroes and their special powers, this book tackles DC''s popular male characters. From Superman''s super-strength and X-ray vision to the Flash''s super-speed to Aquaman''s ability to live under water, this exciting board book explains how each character''s powers make him unique and enable him to make the world a safer place. Classic DC art makes this as appealing to grownups as it is to the tiniest aspiring super heroes.

While undergoing amphibious invasion training on Cape Cod in 1943, a lonely G.I. meets a pretty young woman who is vacationing with her friends. The attraction is instantaneous. His Coney Island background and his corny jokes make him different from the boys she knows in staid Boston. When they part ways after their brief encounter, he promises to write, but she wonders if he''ll even remember her address.The G.I. does remember her address and he does write, tentatively at first. She writes back, encouraging him. They meet once more, for a memorable Valentine''s Day weekend in New York City just before he is sent overseas. Then, over the next several months, their correspondence becomes an almost daily ritual that lasts to the end of the war and which sustains the G.I. through combat duty in New Guinea and the Philippines and the occupation of Japan.Their letters take weeks to reach each other. In between, she suffers crushing loneliness and uncertainty over whether her young man will ever return. He is half a world away from everyone and everything he holds dear, tenaciously holding onto a thread of home through his growing affection for his darling, dear Ruthy.Dear Ruthy is the authentic voice of a single G.I. It''s a comprehensive epistolary love story - with the war as its backdrop - of two young people caught up in each other and the world-shaping events of their time. Here is both living history and true romance, told not from the perspective of generals, but from the heart of a simple G.I. as he actually wrote it to the woman he loved.
