Dual banach lattices and Banach lattices with the Radon-Nikodym property

We construct a separable dual Banach latticeE such that no non-trivial order interval of its dual is weakly compact. HenceE has the Radon-Nikodym property without being in some sense a dual in a natural way. The final draft of this paper was written while the author held a grant from NATO to visit the Ohio State University.
