|  | The Hybrid Company by Bernadette Tiernan
Today?s most successful business model is the hybrid company--one that reaches its customers through a seamless integration of clicks, bricks, and catalogs. Learn strategies businesses of all types and sizes can use to achieve profitability in the post-dot-com era. The recent dot-com shakeout has caused businesses to return to a survival of the fittest mode. The fittest, it seems, are hybrid companies that assimilate e-commerce Web sites, a physical presence, and printed materials. In THE HYBRID COMPANY, e-business expert Bernadette Tiernan explains how each of these elements, or channels, promotes and reinforces the others. Designed as a business-building guide for owners, executives, and managers of business-to-business and business-to-consumer ventures, she outlines strategies of successful hybrid companies, including real-world leaders such as Gateway, Williams-Sonoma, and Staples. THE HYBRID COMPANY is a practical guide for businesses that want to survive--and thrive--in the next stage of the Internet economy. AUTHOR: Bernadette Tiernan

 | House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski
A man buys a house for his girlfriend and her two children. When a new door appears in a wall, they find a space that appears to be infinite, even though the outside form of the house remains the same. In five expeditions, the characters explore this vast space, and each try is documented in a different kind of narrative, each in its own typeface. Constructed of these self-referential texts, this metafiction examines the effects of a possibly haunted house on a group of people, each one more peripherally involved with it than the last. A New York Times Notable Book for 2000 and nominated for the 2000 Bram Stoker Award for Best First Novel. AUTHOR: Mark Z. Danielewski
