Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde: A Kaplan SAT Score-Raising Classic
Robert Stevenson
Kaplan Publishing, 2006
Nice way to learn new vocab
The only suggestion I would make is that Kaplan incorporates the "underlined" words in the main text as well, the same way it incorporates the "bolded" words. It gets annoying to have to flip to the back every time you encounter an "underlined" word with which you are ...

Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers

Fascinating Read! Well Researched and Goes into Great Detail of Options for Those Thinking of Donating Their Corpse to Science!

Dominion: The Power of Man, the Suffering of Animals, and the Call to Mercy
Matthew Scully
St. Martin's Griffin, 2003
Scully = Hypocrite
I just discovered that Matthew Scully is the speech writer for Sarah Palin, who you would assume to be the antithesis of all he believes in.
