> Miriam Schneir reads from Final Verdict: What Really Happened to the  
> Rosenbergs
> Friday, October 15, 6 pm
> Final Verdict: What Really Happened to the Rosenbergs by Walter  
> Schneir, will be read and discussed by his wife and partner, Miriam  
> Schneir. The arrest, trial and execution of Julius and Ethel  
> Rosenberg mesmerized an America still coming to grips with both the  
> early Cold War and the anxiety aroused by the Soviet Union's testing  
> of an atomic bomb. For more than a decade, Walter Schneir searched  
> into the truth of the Rosenberg case. The result is a stunning  
> seriesof revelations that brings the story of the Rosenbergs to a  
> conclusive end at last. After Walter Schneir's death last year,  
> Miriam took his remaining manuscript and, after framing it with a  
> thorough preface and afterword, released it as Final Verdict.

> Professor and Writer Tom Seeley reads from Honeybee Democracy
> Sunday, October 17 at 4 pm
> Tom Seeley, Professor in the Department of Neurobiology and Behavior  
> at Cornell University, will read from Honeybee Democracy. Honeybees  
> make decisions collectively--and democratically. Every year, faced  
> with the life-or-death problem of choosing and traveling to a new  
> home, honeybees stake everything on a process that includes  
> collective fact- finding, vigorous debate, and consensus building.  
> As world- renowned animal behaviorist Thomas Seeley reveals, these  
> incredible insects have much to teach us when it comes to collective  
> wisdom and effective decision-making. Honeybee Democracy is about  
> scientific discovery, written for both the general reader and the  
> biologist.
