The Rainbow Cadenza
''The Rainbow Cadenza'' is a science fiction novel by J. Neil Schulman which won the 1984 Prometheus Award for libertarianism, libertarian science fiction. Plot summary The novel tells the story of Joan Darris, a laser art composer and performer, and her interactions with her society.

There can be several given names, some of these being often referred to as a second name, or middle name(s). Given names Most given names used in England do not have English derivation.

There remains a limited set of given names which have an actual English derivation (see Anglo-Saxon names); examples include Alfred, Ashley, Edgar, Edmund, Edward, Edwin, Harold and Oswald.
