In the first part of this volume, the four members of the research team explore the significance of the Noli me tangere each from their own particular discipline. The second part of the volume contains a catalogue of the exhibited works with a colour photograph and short description.

A new collection from David Sedaris is cause for jubilation. His recent move to Paris has inspired hilarious pieces, including Me Talk Pretty One Day, about his attempts to learn French. His family is another inspiration. You Cant Kill the Rooster is a portrait of his brother who talks incessant hip-hop slang to his bewildered father. And no one hones a finer fury in response to such modern annoyances as restaurant meals presented in ludicrous towers and cashiers with 6-inch fingernails. Compared by The New Yorker to Twain and Hawthorne, Sedaris has become one of our best-loved authors. Sedaris is an amazing reader whose appearances draw hundreds, and his performancesincluding a jaw-dropping impression of Billie Holiday singing I wish I were an Oscar Meyer weinerare unforgettable. Sedariss essays on living in Paris are some of the funniest hes ever written. At last, someone even meaner than the French! The sort of blithely sophisticated, loopy humour that might have resulted if Dorothy Parker and James Thurber had had a love child.

This book, speaks loud and clear about the meaning of American Patriotism. It is my sincere belief, that if we are to remain a free, and strong democracy, as one Nation under God, we must without the slightest doubt, "Pledge Allegiance to America." We must stand united, determined to identify and expose the "Anti-Americans" within our country, who have total disregard for the labors of Our Founding. Fathers. The enemy exists within our society as both, individuals and as well funded organizations, constantly "chipping away" at our Declaration of Independence and Constitution, with fierce determination to change our form of government. They are intent on eliminating any reference to GOD, regardless of how, when and where, knowing that the majority of our citizens are of the Judeo/Christian belief. We are Christians and Jews, and people of every faith, who believe in God, who will unite to resist the "enemies," whose purpose it is, to deny us of our freedom and strip us of our freedom to worship God as we desire. As united believers in God, we must make certain that our lawmakers do not succumb to the demands of the "enemy within" and their constant "rabble-rousing" methods, aimed at the destruction of Our Heritage, Our Culture and Our Form of Government.
