This a unique Hemingway, in that it is primarily a travel diary of sorts. Of course, being Hemingway, the descriptions of people, animals and the land in general are inspired. This is a must read for anyone interested in what the African bush looks like to a visitor. Since there is no plot, it is not dark like much of Hemingway.

Between 7:00pm and 1:00am is a good time to get answers to a health care system moving from the traditional office face-to-facing with doctors to self-managed lay medicine online. A good way to surf these Internet health and medical resources is by signing up with a computer network, such as America Online, CompuServe, Delphi, eWorld, Genie, Microsoft Windows 95, Prodigy, The Well, or Women's Wire. Self-helpers can then access such biomedical databases as the HealthNet Reference Library, Information USA/health, and Medline; Internet mailing lists, such as HMATRIX-L's popular and professional resources for laypeople and professionals; the Medical Support Bulletin Board; the Medical Matrix gopher site; the MedWeb free medical library; and USENET newsgroups. Such directories and search engines as InternetSleuth, the Multimedia Medical Reference Library, and the Whole Internet Catalog of Health can find relevant web sites ranging from Good Medicine alternative and mainstream medical practices, to Internet Vet, PharmInfoNet, Traveler's Choice worldwide health conditions, and Yahoo/health.

Or a health information broker---such as The Health Resource Inc., Med Help International, and Plane Tree Health Resource Center---could be hired to do all the footwork. Or a non-digital start would be to call the Self-Help Clearinghouse and to read THE SELF-HELP SOURCEBOOK. This self-help focus by author and physician Tom Ferguson works well with John M. Grohol's THE INSIDER'S GUIDE TO MENTAL HEALTH RESOURCES ONLINE. Readers trying to pool as much Internet health and medical information as possible could also look to Bruce Maxwell's HOW TO FIND HEALTH INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET and MOSBY'S MEDICAL SURFARI.

This is one of the great literary biographies . Edel labored on the James biography for over twenty years and has great sympathy and admiration for his subject. In a sense the work has something of the quality and intelligence the character of James' writing itself. It is the story of a life devoted to art a life in which experience seemed to less exist as value in itself than as material for its artistic transformation and elaboration. One of the great moving parts of the work is the story of James' tragic failure as a playwright. And the story of his recovery from it and his going on to produce the New York edition of his works is a story of a kind of determination and courage displayed by this most dedicated of artists. As to the relationships of James to the other members of his remarkable family including the philosopher who wrote like a novelist his brother William Edel is instructive but not exhaustive. It was nonetheless touching to read how these two great figures of American intellectual life came towards the end of their days to show a brotherly caring and respect which overcame the inherent ambivalences of their somewhat rivalous relationship.
The reader needs patience and a feeling for Jamesian abstraction and complexity. But this work will help the reader know well, if not completely, the great American novelist who wrote as if a philosopher.
