Alexandra Costa, wife of the first secretary of the Russian Embassy in Washington, relates the account of her escape to freedom, with all its excitement--secret codes and signals, aliases, vicious threats, and encounters with security officers. Hers is the first book to describe what it is to step into an alien land, with a new name, no past, and no friends or business experience. Filled with humor, suspense, emotion, and details about two lands and two ways of life, the book offers a rare insight into the everyday world of an intelligent, educated Russian woman--what she confronted in her own society and what she confronted in American society when she dared to leave her own. ISBN 0-399-13195-7: $16.95.

"A short, excellent account of [Leavitt’s] extraordinary life and achievements." —Simon Singh, New York Times Book Review George Johnson brings to life Henrietta Swan Leavitt, who found the key to the vastness of the universe—in the form of a “yardstick” suitable for measuring it. Unknown in our day, Leavitt was no more recognized in her own: despite her enormous achievement, she was employed by the Harvard Observatory as a mere number-cruncher, at a wage not dissimilar from that of workers in the nearby textile mills. Miss Leavitt’s Stars uncovers her neglected history.
