COVER: Cosmetic Surgery. The quest for new faces and bodies -- at a price. Cover: Photo by Francesco Scavullo.

TOP OF THE WEEK:
TISSOT'S TOUCH: James Tissot was a 19th-century society artist who was all but ignored until his auction prices started soaring a few years back. A new exhibition shows an oddly modern sensibility.

A PASSION FOR HYPE: Business books offering at best Band-Aid solutions to management problems are selling by the millions--and making promotion-minded authors like Tom Peters (right) rich.

TRAGEDY IN PHILADELPHIA: Pressure had been building on Philadelphia Mayor W. Wilson Goode to do something about MOVE--a cult whose members had been harassing their neighbors. Last week Goode sent in the police--and the result was disaster: 11 dead and more than 60 homes in a working-class neighborhood destroyed in a blaze after police dropped an explosive device.

THE LURE OF COSMETIC SURGERY: For an increasing number of Americans, the passport to a youthful-looking face and terrific figure is cosmetic surgery. Placing an artful nip here and a strategic tuck there, plastic surgeons last year performed nearly half a million "esthetic" operations, as many as 20 percent of them on men. NEWSWEEK'S cover story examines the reisons behind the growing popularity of cosmetic surgery, and a companion piece describes new technology that can transform a plain Jane or John--and even turn back the clock.

FIGHTING TERROR WITH TERROR: Once again the lives of American hostages were threatened in Lebanon, and once again the CIA was linked to a covert action gone tragically wrong. In an antiterrorism operation that has since been terminated, CIA proteges hired assassins to kill the spiritual leader of Shiite Muslim radicals (left). The resulting car-bomb explosion killed 92 bystanders instead.
