When Ben Thompson opened Design Research in Boston in 1953, his innovative store became synonymous with modern interior design, lighting a public spark that still burns today, though the store itself is no longer. When the mass-produced furniture of impersonal department stores reigned supreme, this boutique retailer dared to provide a learned yet unpretentious environment for sleek design. Today, Design Research's legacy can be seen in the showrooms of Crate & Barrel and Design Within Reach. Through interviews, anecdotes and lush photographs, Design Research documents the array of household objects and furniture introduced to the American home through the legendary store that made good design available to all.

SECRETS VOLUME 15 ISBN#0975451650 Simon Says by Jane Thompson: Simon Campbell is a newspaper columnist who makes his living pandering to the adolescent fantasies of American men. Georgina Kennedy is a respectable librarian with a holier-than-thou attitude towards Simon's lifestyle. On the surface, these two have nothing in common…but you should never judge a book by its cover.Bite of the Wolf by Cynthia Eden: Gareth Morlet, alpha werewolf, has finally found his mate. Gareth will not let anything stop him from claiming his woman—not the rogue wolf who is on Trinity Martin's trail and certainly not his mate's own fear. All he has to do is convince Trinity to join with him, to give in to the pleasure of a werewolf's mating, and then she will be his…forever. Falling for Trouble by Saskia Walker: With 48 hours to clear her brother's name, Sonia Harmond needs all the help she can get and finds it in the shape of irresistible bad boy, Oliver Eaglestone. When the erotic tension between them hits fever pitch, securing evidence to thwart an international arms dealer isn't the only danger they face. Can either of them resist falling for trouble? The Disciplinarian by Leigh Court: Trapped in a loveless marriage of convenience in Victorian England, headstrong Clarissa Babcock is sent to the shadowy legend known as The Disciplinarian for instruction in proper wifely obedience. One look at the dark and dangerously handsome Disciplinarian has her fantasizing about what it would be like to be at the mercy of his sexual tutelage.As The Disciplinarian, Jared Ashworth has never failed to transform a difficult wife into a dutiful spouse, but not in the way their husbands expect. He uses the tools of seduction to show Clarissa how to control a demanding husband, but her beauty, spirit, and uninhibited passion make Jared hunger to keep her -- and their darkly erotic nights -- all for himself!

Secrets: Volume 15 the Best in Erotic Romance

Originally published in 1983, this book not only dissects the intrinsic and oppressive sexism of conventional adult and continuing education, but also argues the case for women-centred education with a powerful and compelling logic. A challenging and controversial book of the time, mixing provocative theories with details of practice in a wide-ranging and readable debate, it addresses the process through which women’s rights to educational equality can be guaranteed. "Arguably the first feminist analysis of adult education" Daniel Schugurensky
