SCHIZOPHRENIA
A Brother Finds Answers in Biological Science
RONALD CHASE
When bright lives are derailed by schizophrenia, bewildered and anxious families struggle to help and to cope, even as scientists search for causes and treatments that prove elusive. Painful and often misunderstood, schizophrenia profoundly affects people who have the disease and their loved ones. Here Ronald Chase, an accomplished biologist, sets out to discover the facts about the disease and to better understand what happened to his older brother, Jim, who developed schizophrenia as a young adult. Chases account alternates between a fiercely loyal and honest memoir and rigorous scientific exploration. He finds scientific answers to deeply personal questions about the course of his brothers illness. Chase also explores the stigma of mental illness, the evolution of schizophrenia, the paradox of its persistence despite low reproduction rates in persons with the disease, and the human stories behind death statistics. With the authors intimate knowledge of the suffering caused by this disease, Schizophrenia emphasizes research strategies, the importance of sound scientific approaches, and the challenges that remain.

As we age, our sense of balance and our vision, hearing, and cognition become less sharp. These changes greatly increase our risk of injury. In Living Safely, Aging Well, nationally recognized safety expert Dorothy A. Drago spells out how to prevent unintentional injury while cooking, gardening, sleeping, drivingand just walking around the house. In the first part of the book Drago describes the causes of injuries by typefalls, burns, poisoning, and asphyxiaand explains how to decrease the risk of each. She then explores the home environment room by room, pointing out potential hazards and explaining how to avoid them, for example, by installing night lights, eliminating glass coffee tables, and using baby monitors. Lively line drawings make it easy for readers to visualize risks and implement prevention techniques. Living Safely, Aging Well pays special attention to hazards encountered by people with Alzheimers disease and other forms of dementia. A chapter devoted to health literacy helps people and caregivers make the best use of the medical care system.

BRIAN E. LACY, PH.D., M.D.
IBS affects almost one in six Americans and is characterized by abdominal pain, bloating, gas, and diarrhea and constipation. Today physicians are better able to diagnose this complex disorder, understand and explain its origins, and develop a treatment plan that effectively meets the individual needs of a patient. Since publication of the first edition of Making Sense of IBS, diagnosis and treatment of irritable bowel syndrome have changed significantly. Drawing on his many years of experience treating people who have symptoms of IBS, Dr. Brian E. Lacy has greatly expanded the first edition, adding new topics and the latest findings on tests, medications, alternative treatments, dietary factors, and lifestyle.
Making Sense of IBS is an essential resource for anyone who has symptoms or a diagnosis of IBS as well as for health professionals who treat people with this complex disorder. Praise for the first edition

ALIEN UNIVERSE
Extraterrestrial Life in Our Minds and in the Cosmos
DON LINCOLN
If extraterrestrials exist, where are they? What is the probability that somewhere out there in the universe an Earth-like planet supports an advanced culture? Why do so many people claim to have encountered aliens? In this gripping exploration, scientist Don Lincoln exposes and explains the truths about the belief in and the search for alien life. In the first half of Alien Universe, Lincoln looks to Western civilizations collective image of aliens, showing how our perceptions of extraterrestrials have evolved over time. The roots of this belief can be traced as far back as our earliest recognition that there were other planets in the universe, and the idea of aliens has fascinated us ever since. The world was fooled in the nineteenth century during the Great Moon Hoax of 1835 and again in the twentieth with Orson Welless 1938 radio broadcast, The War of the Worlds. And our continuing interest is reflected in entertainment successes such as E.T., The X-Files, and Star Trek. The second half of the book deals with the scientific possibility that advanced alien civilizations do exist. For many years, researchers have sought to answer Enrico Fermis great paradoxif there are so many planets in the universe, and a high probability that many of those can support life, then why have we not actually encountered any aliens (apologies to those who are sure we have)? Lincoln describes how modern science teaches us what is possible and what is not.

The definitive study on the history, meaning, art, and commerce of Amish quilts.
AMISH QUILTS
Crafting an American Icon
JANNEKEN SMUCKER
Quilts have become a cherished symbol of Amish craftsmanship and the beauty of the simple life. Country stores in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and other tourist regions display row after row of handcrafted quiltsa favorite souvenir for tourists and a source of income for the quilters. In luxury homes, office buildings, and museums, the quilts been preserved and displayed as priceless artifacts. Amish Quilts explores how these objects went from practical bed linens to contemporary art. In this in-depth study, illustrated with more than 100 stunning color photographs, Janneken Smucker discusses what makes an Amish quilt Amish. She examines the value of quilts to those who have made, bought, sold, exhibited, and preserved them and how that value changes as a quilt travels from Amish hands to marketplace to consumers. Through her own observations as well as oral histories, newspaper accounts, ephemera, and other archival sources, Smucker seeks to understand how the term Amish became a style, and what it means to both quiltmakers and consumers alike.
Smuckers excellent book is beautifully written and will significantly advance the scholarship in quilt studies and, more broadly, material culture studies and art history. This is the book that will stand as the authoritative text on Amish quiltmaking. Marsha MacDowell, Michigan State University Museum

Compelling photographs of people and places throughout Maryland during one of the nations most anxious decades.
Between 1935 and 1943, the United States government commissioned forty-four photographers to capture American faces, along with living and working conditions, across the country. Nearly 180,000 photographs were taken4,000 in Marylandand they are now preserved in the Prints and Photographs Division of the Library of Congress. Constance B. Schulz presents a selection of these images in Maryland in Black and White. Within these pages, the farms and coal fields of 1930s and 40s western Maryland, the tobacco fields of southern Maryland, watermen in wooden boats along the Eastern Shore, and smiling couples dancing at a wartime senior prom come back to life. These photographs reveal places we know but scarcely recognize and give us another look at the people of the greatest generation.

The first study of how the gap year can make young people more effective students and better citizens.
GAP YEAR
How Delaying College Changes People in Ways the World Needs
JOSEPH OSHEA
With some of the most prestigious universities in America now urging students to defer admissions so they can experience the world, the idea of the gap year has taken hold in America. Since its development in Britain nearly fifty years ago, taking time off between secondary school and college has allowed students the opportunity to travel, develop crucial life skills, and grow up, all while doing volunteer work in much needed parts of the developing world. Until now, there has been no systematic study of how the gap year helps students develop as young scholars and citizens. Joseph OShea has produced the first empirically based analysis of how the gap year influences student development. He also establishes a context for better understanding this personal development and suggests concrete ways universities and educators can develop effective gap year programs.
OShea asks whether gap years are worthwhile with gusto and authority. His rich qualitative approach, packed with student interviews, provides ample evidence that the answer is Yes. That year, done well, can be a springboard to college success by giving students strength, grit, confidence, inspiration, knowledge, curiosity, empathy, JOSEPH OSHEA is director of Florida and more.

PACIFISTS IN CHAINS
The Persecution of Hutterites during the Great War
DUANE C. S. STOLTZFUS
To Hutterites and members of other peace churches, serving the military in any way goes against the biblical commandment thou shalt not kill and Jesuss admonition to turn the other cheek when confronted with violence. Pacifists in Chains tells the story of four young menJoseph Hofer, Michael Hofer, David Hofer, and Jacob Wipfwho followed these beliefs and refused to perform military service in World War I. The men paid a steep price for their resistance, imprisoned in Alcatraz and Fort Leavenworth, where the two youngest died. The Hutterites buried the men as martyrs, citing mistreatment. Using archival material, letters from the four men and others imprisoned during the war, and interviews with their descendants, Duane C. S. Stoltzfus explores the tension between a country preparing to enter into a world war and a people whose history of martyrdom for their pacifist beliefs goes back to their sixteenth-century Reformation beginnings.

Soldiers lay wounded or sick as both sides struggled to get them fit to return to battle.
MARROW OF TRAGEDY
The Health Crisis of the American Civil War
MARGARET HUMPHREYS
The Civil War was the greatest health disaster the United States has ever experienced, killing more than a million Americans and leaving many others injured or grieving. Poorly prepared to care for wounded and sick soldiers as the war began, Union and Confederate governments scrambled to provide doctoring and nursing, supplies, and shelter for those felled by warfare or disease. During the war soldiers suffered from measles, dysentery, and pneumonia and needed both preventive and curative food and medicine. Family membersespecially womenand governments mounted organizational and support efforts, while army doctors learned to standardize medical thought and practice. Resources in the north helped return soldiers to battle, while Confederate soldiers suffered hunger and other privations and healed more slowly, when they healed at all. In telling the stories of soldiers, families, physicians, nurses, and administrators, historian Margaret Humphreys concludes that medical science was not as limited at the beginning of the war as has been portrayed. Medicine and public health clearly advanced during the warand continued to do so after military hostilities ceased.
If there is one study that shows us the significance of sickness in the Civil War, and the attempts to define and counter it, this is it. With admirable scholarship and an eye for key turning points, Humphreys has written a compelling history of the wars medical costs and achievements. Steven M. Stowe, Indiana University

doctor dead and another on trial for his life. Formerly close friends, the doctors had fallen out over the issue of medical licensing. Historian James C. Mohr calls the murder a sorry personal consequence of the far larger and historically significant battle among West Virginias physicians over the future of their profession. Through most of the nineteenth century, anyone could call themselves a doctor and could practice medicine on whatever basis they wished. An 1889 Supreme Court case, Dent
v. West Virginia, effectively transformed medical practice in the U.S. from an unregulated
occupation to a legally recognized profession. The political and legal battles that led up to the decision were unusually bitterespecially among physicians themselvesand the outcome was far from a foregone conclusion. So-called Regular physicians wanted to impose their own standards on the wide-open medical marketplace in which they and such non-Regulars as Thomsonians, Botanics, Hydropaths, Homeopaths, and Eclectics competed. The Regulars achieved their goal by persuading the state legislature to make it a crime for anyone to practice without a license from the Board of Health, which they controlled. When the high court approved that arrangementdespite constitutional challengesthe licensing precedents established in West Virginia became the bedrock on which the modern American medical structure was built.
ANXIETY
A Short History
ALLAN V. HORWITZ
More people today report feeling anxious than ever beforeeven while living in relatively safe and prosperous modern societies. Almost one in five people experiences an anxiety disorder each year, and more than a quarter of the population admits to an anxiety condition at some point in their lives. Here Allan V. Horwitz, a sociologist of mental illness and mental health, narrates how this condition has been experienced, understood, and treated through the agesfrom Hippocrates, through Freud, to today. Anxiety is rooted in an ancient part of the brain, and our ability to be anxious is inherited from species far more ancient than humans. Anxiety is often adaptive: it enables us to respond to threats. But when normal fear yields to what psychiatry categorizes as anxiety disorders, it becomes maladaptive. As Horwitz explores the history and multiple identities of anxietymelancholia, nerves, neuroses, phobias, and so onit becomes clear that every age has had its own anxieties and that culture plays a role in shaping how anxiety is expressed.

How did a disease of marginal public health significance acquire paradigmatic status in public health and genetics?
PKU (phenylketonuria) is a genetic disorder that causes severe cognitive impairment if it is not detected and treated with a strict and difficult diet. In a lifetime of practice, most physicians will never encounter a single case of PKU, yet every physician in the industrialized world learns about the disease in medical school and, since the early 1960s, the newborn heel stick test for PKU has been mandatory in many countries. Diane B. Paul and Jeffrey P. Broscos beautifully written book explains this paradox. In this first general history of PKU, a historian and a pediatrician explore how a rare genetic disease became the object of an unprecedented system for routine testing. The PKU
Paradox is informed by interviews with scientists, clinicians, policy makers, and individuals
who live with the disease. The questions it raises touch on ongoing controversies about newborn screening and what happens to blood samples collected at birth.

Beautifully drawn color maps portray the U.S. railroad network at its zenith.
The fifth volume of A Railroad Atlas of the United States in 1946 provides a comprehensive record of the railroad system as it existed in Iowa and Minnesota in 1946the apex of Americas post-war rail network, when steam locomotives still dominated and passenger trains stopped at towns all along the rail lines. Eventually railroad mergers, the automobile, and the airplane changed what many viewed as the worlds premier rail system. Richard C. Carpenters hand-drawn color maps depict in precise detail the various trunk and secondary railroad lines that served scores of towns while indicating such features as long-since-demolished coaling stations, towns that functioned solely as places where crews were changed, tunnels, viaducts, and especially interlocking stations.

An in-depth look into the life and work of the creator of cool: Elmore Leonard.
BEING COOL
The Work of Elmore Leonard
CHARLES J. RZEPKA
Widely known as the crime fiction writer whose work led to the movies Get Shorty and
Out of Sight, Elmore Leonard has a special knack for creating cool characters, which for
him means characters who are good at what they do. The dope dealers, bookies, grifters, financial advisers, talent agents, shady attorneys, hookers, models, and crooked cops of Leonards world may be nefarious, but they are generally confident, skilled, and composed, and they cope without effort or thought. In Being Cool, Charles Rzepka draws on more than twelve hours of personal interviews with Leonard and applies what he learned to his close analysis of Leonards long life and prodigious output: 45 published novels, 39 published and unpublished short stories, and numerous essays written over the course of six decades. Leonards writing methods and style epitomize how he conceives being cool. Rzepka delineates the stages and patterns that characterize the authors creative evolution. Like jazz greats, Leonard forged an individual style immediately recognizable for its voice and rhythm, including his characters rat-a-tat recitations, curt backhands, and ragged trains of thought. Taking being cool as the highway through Leonards life and works, Rzepka finds plenty of byways to explore along the way.

REMAKING COLLEGE
Innovation and the Liberal Arts College
edited by REBECCA CHOPP, SUSAN FROST, and DANIEL H. WEISS
Residential liberal arts colleges maintain a unique place in the landscape of American higher education. These schools are characterized by broad-based curricula, small class size, and interaction between students and faculty. Aimed at developing students intellectual literacy and critical-thinking skills rather than specific professional preparation, the value proposition made by these colleges has recently come under intense pressure. Remaking College brings together a large and distinguished group of higher education leaders to define the American liberal arts model, to describe the challenges these institutions face, and to propose sustainable solutions.
This is an important book for people interested in how one of Americas most successful organizational designs can continue to be a key contributor to national success in the decades ahead. Michael Crow, president, Arizona State University

How do some university presidents lose their way, and why are their consequential dismissals given so much media attention?
PRESIDENCIES DERAILED
Why University Leaders Fail and How to Prevent It
STEPHEN JOEL TRACHTENBERG, GERALD B. KAUVAR, and E. GRADY BOGUE
University presidents have become as expendable as football coachesone bad season, scandal, or political or financial misstep and they are sent packing. These high-profile appointments are increasingly scrutinized by faculty, administrators, alumni, and the media, and problems are discussed all too publicly. A combination of constrained resources and a new trend toward hiring from outside of academia results in tensions between governing boards and presidents that can erupt quickly. Sometimes presidents are dismissed for performance, financial, or institutional fit reasons, but there are nearly always political reasons as well. Presidencies Derailed is the first book to explore the reasons why university presidencies fail and how university and college leadership can prevent these unfortunate situations. Personal testimonies from derailed university presidents and case studies show how good presidencies go bad. Stephen Joel Trachtenberg, Gerald B. Kauvar, and E. Grady Bogue organize, classify, and explain patterns of leadership failures and offer key advice on how institutions, their boards, and their leaders can avoid these acrimonious battles.
STEPHEN JOEL TRACHTENBERG was a long-serving president of George Washington University. GERALD B. KAUVAR is research professor of public policy and public

The interactions between Indians and Europeans changed Americaand both cultures.
second edition
COLIN G. CALLOWAY
Although many Americans consider the establishment of the colonies as the birth of this country, in fact early America existed long before the arrival of the Europeans. From coast to coast, Native Americans had created enduring cultures, and the subsequent European invasion remade much of the land and society. In New Worlds for All, Colin G. Calloway explores the unique and vibrant new cultures that Indians and Europeans forged together in early America. The journey toward this hybrid society kept Europeans and Indians lives tightly entwined: living, working, worshiping, traveling, and trading togetheras well as fearing, avoiding, despising, and killing one another. In some areas, settlers lived in Indian towns, eating Indian food. In the Mohawk Valley, New York, Europeans tattooed their faces; Indians drank tea. A unique American identity emerged. The second edition of New Worlds for All incorporates fifteen years of additional
scholarship on Indian-European relations, such as the role of gender, Indian slavery, relationships with African Americans, and new understandings of frontier society. Praise for the first edition

Prelude to Revolution tells the story of a critical event in Americas early history, when a new nations fate was still uncertain.
PRELUDE TO REVOLUTION
The Salem Gunpowder Raid of 1775
PETER CHARLES HOFFER
Before colonial Americans could declare independence, they had to undergo a change of heart. Beyond a desire to rebel against British mercantile and fiscal policies, they had to believe that they could stand up to the fully armed British soldier. Prelude to Revolution uncovers one story of how the Americans found that confidence. On April 19, 1775, British raids on Lexington Green and Concord Bridge made history, but it was an episode nearly two months earlier in Salem, Massachusetts, that set the stage for the hostilities. Peter Charles Hoffer has discovered records and newspaper accounts of a British gunpowder raid on Salem. Seeking powder and cannon hidden in the town, a regiment of British Regulars were foiled by quick-witted patriots who carried off the ordinance and then openly taunted the Regulars. The prudence of British commanding officer Alexander Leslie and the persistence of the patriot leaders turned a standoff into a bloodless triumph for the colonists. What might have been a violent confrontation turned into a local victory, and the patriots gloated as news spread of Leslies Retreat. When British troops marched on Lexington and Concord on that pivotal day in April, Hoffer explains, each side had drawn diametrically opposed lessons from the Salem raid. It emboldened the rebels to stand fast and infuriated the British, who vowed never again to back down. After relating these battles in vivid detail, Hoffer provides a teachable problem in historic memory by asking why we celebrate Lexington and Concord but not Salem and why New Englanders recalled the events at Salem but then forgot their significance

CHASING SOUND
Technology, Culture, and the Art of Studio Recording from Edison to the LP
SUSAN SCHMIDT HORNING
In Chasing Sound, Susan Schmidt Horning traces the cultural and technological evolution of recording studios in the United States from the first practical devices to the modern multitrack studios of the analog era. Charting the technical development of studio equipment, the professionalization of recording engineers, and the growing collaboration between artists and technicians, she shows how the earliest efforts to capture the sound of live performances eventually resulted in a trend toward studio creations that extended beyond live shows, ultimately reversing the historic relationship between live and recorded sound. A former performer herself, Schmidt Horning draws from a wealth of original oral interviews with major labels and independent recording engineers, producers, arrangers, and musicians, as well as memoirs, technical journals, popular accounts, and sound recordings. Recording engineers and producers, she finds, influenced technological and musical change as they sought to improve the sound of records. By investigating the complex relationship between sound engineering and popular music, she reveals the increasing reliance on technological intervention in the creation as well as in the reception of music. The recording studio, she argues, is at the center of musical culture in the twentieth century.
How technically enhanced studio recordings revolutionized music and the music industry.
Chasing Sound is a rich account of the development of recording studio technology and musical culture. It offers captivating new material and is a valuable contribution to scholarship in sound studies. Emily Thompson, Princeton University

EINSTEINS BERLIN
In the Footsteps of a Genius
DIETER HOFFMANN
Lured by a top academic position sponsored by the Prussian Academy of Sciences, Albert Einstein moved from Zurich to Berlin in 1914 and lived there until 1932, just weeks before Hitler became chancellor of Germany. During this fraught economic and political time, Einstein developed the general theory of relativity, gained worldwide fame, supported democratic, socialist, pacifist, and Zionist causes, and withstood the growing ire of ultranationalists. Naturally, he became entwined in a network of people and places throughout the city. With a foreword by Nobel Prize winner Walter Kohn, Einsteins Berlin combines narrative, maps, and period photographs to tell this story in the form of a sophisticated, annotated city guide, allowing readers and travelers to follow the physicists footsteps throughout Berlin. Dieter Hoffmann conveys how Einsteins life and work were linked to the scientific and social life of the city and inspires the reader to explore the places where he made his mark.

An original interdisciplinary study positioned at the intersection of literary theory and neuroscience.
Literature matters, says Paul B. Armstrong, for what it reveals about human experience, and the very different perspective of neuroscience on how the brain works is part of that story. In How Literature Plays with the Brain, Armstrong examines the parallels between certain features of literary experience and functions of the brain. His central argument is that literature plays with the brain through experiences of harmony and dissonance which set in motion oppositions that are fundamental to the neurobiology of mental functioning. These oppositions negotiate basic tensions in the operation of the brain between the drive for pattern, synthesis, and constancy and the need for flexibility, adaptability, and openness to change. The challenge, Armstrong argues, is to account for the ability of readers to find incommensurable meanings in the same text, for example, or to take pleasure in art that is harmonious or dissonant, symmetrical or distorted, unified or discontinuous and disruptive.
How Literature Plays with the Brain is the first book to use the resources of neuroscience and phenomenology to analyze aesthetic experience. For the neuroscientific community, the study suggests that different areas of researchthe neurobiology of vision and reading, the brain-body interactions underlying emotionsmay be connected to a variety of aesthetic and literary phenomena. For critics and students of literature, the study engages fundamental questions within the humanities: What is aesthetic experience? What happens when we read a literary work? How does the interpretation of literature relate to other ways of knowing?

MY SILVER PLANET
A Secret History of Poetry and Kitsch
DANIEL TIFFANY
My Silver Planet (borrowing its title from John Keats) contends that the insoluble problem
of elite poetrys relation to popular culture bears the indelible stamp of its turbulent incorporation of vernacular poetrya legacy shaped by nostalgia, contempt, and fraudulence. Daniel Tiffany reactivates and fundamentally redefines the concept of kitsch, freeing it from modernist misapprehension and ridicule. He excavates the forgotten history of poetrys relation to kitsch, beginning with the exuberant revival of archaic (and often spurious) ballads in Britain in the early eighteenth century. Tiffany argues that the ballad revivalthe earliest formation of what we now call popular culturesparked a dubious but seemingly irresistible flirtation with poetic forgery that endures today in the ambiguity of the kitsch artifact: is it real or fake, art or kitsch? He goes on to trace the genealogy of kitsch in texts ranging from nursery rhymes and poetic melodrama to the lyric commodities of Baudelaire. He scrutinizes the Fascist paradise inscribed in Ezra Pounds Cantos, as well as the poetry of the New York School and its debt to pop and plasticart. By exposing and elaborating the historical poetics of kitsch, My Silver Planet transforms our sense of kitsch as a category of material culture.
Reveals the hidden relationship between kitsch and poetry from the eighteenth century to the present.
Daniel Tiffanys My Silver Planet is the most exciting and original book on poetry, Nightlife, Substance and Neptune Park. indeed one of the most exciting scholarly books on anything, I have read in years.

While earlier scholarship has established both the importance of science generally and vitalism specifically, with regard to Romanticism no study has investigated what it meant for artists to experiment and how those experiments related to their interest in the concept of life.
Experimental Life draws on approaches and ideas from contemporary science studies, proposing the concept of experimental vitalism to show both how Romantic authors appropriated the concept of experimentation from the sciences and the impact of their appropriation for post-Romantic concepts of literature and art.
A superb and outstandingly researched study. It is a richly rewarding book in its attention to significant Denise Gigante, Stanford University detail, its subtle and imaginative use of theory, and its masterful negotiation of the archive.

MUSICA NATURALIS
Speculative Music Theory and Poetics, from Saint Augustine to the Late Middle Ages in France
PHILIPP JESERICH translated by Steven Rendall and Michael J. Curley
Musica Naturalis delivers the first systematic account of speculative music theory as a discursive horizon for literary poetics. The title refers to the late medieval French poet Eustache Deschamps, whose 1392 treatise on verse writing, Art de Dictier, famously casts verse as natural music in explicit distinction to song, which Deschamps defines as artificial. Philipp Jeserich begins with Augustine and Boethius and traces the discourse of speculative music theory to the late fifteenth century, giving attention to medieval Latin and vernacular sources. By linking the significance of the speculative branch of medieval musicology to literary theory and literary production, Jeserich opens up a field of study that has been largely neglected.

PYTHAGOREAN WOMEN
Their History and Writings
SARAH B. POMEROY
In Pythagorean Women, classical scholar Sarah B. Pomeroy discusses the groundbreaking principles that Pythagoras established for family life in Archaic Greece, such as constituting a single standard of sexual conduct for women and men. Among the Pythagoreans, women played an important role and participated actively in the philosophical life. While Pythagoras encouraged women to be submissive to men, his reasoning was based on the desire to preserve harmony in the home.
Pythagorean Women provides English translations of all the earliest extant examples
of literary Greek prose by Neopythagorean women, shedding light on their attitudes about marriage, the home, music, and the cosmos. Pomeroys bookwhich sets the Pythagorean and Neopythagorean women vividly in their historical, ecological, and intellectual contexts is illustrated with original photographs of sites and artifacts known to these women.
A book about Pythagorean women is sorely needed and long overdue. Pomeroy Professor of Classics and History Emerita at rectifies that situation and could fill large gaps not only in the social history of Hunter College and the Graduate School at Pythagoreanism but more generally in the history of the lives of these women, the City University of New York.

a Cockeyed Lens.
Yetiv draws on four decades of psychological, historical, and political science research on cognitive biases to illuminate some of the key pitfalls in our leaders decision-making processes and some of the mental errors we make in perceiving ourselves and the world. Tracing five U.S. national security episodesthe 1979 Soviet invasion and occupation of Afghanistan; the Iran-Contra affair during the Reagan administration; the rise of al-Qaeda, leading to the 9/11 attacks; the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq; and the development of U.S. energy policyYetiv reveals how a dozen cognitive biases have been more influential in impacting U.S. national security than commonly believed or understood. Identifying a primary bias in each episodedisconnect of perception versus reality; tunnel vision (focus feature); distorted perception (cockeyed lens); overconfidence; and short-term thinkingYetiv explains how each bias drove the decision-making process and what the outcomes were for the various actors. His concluding chapter examines a range of debiasing techniques, exploring how they can improve decision making.

FLAWED LOGICS
Strategic Nuclear Arms Control from Truman to Obama
JAMES H. LEBOVIC
James H. Lebovic explores the logic of seeking peace in an arms race. Flawed Logics offers a compelling intellectual history of U.S. Russian strategic nuclear arms control. Lebovic thoroughly reviews the critical role of ideas and assumptions in U.S. arms control debates, tying them to controversies over U.S. nuclear strategy. Each treatyfrom Truman to Obama is assessed in depth and the positions of proponents and opponents are systematically critiqued. Lebovic concludes that the terms of these arms treaties with the Russians were never as good as U.S. proponents claimed nor as bad as opponents feared.
Lebovic skillfully dissects the opposing viewpoints in the U.S. arms control community during and after the Cold War and demonstrates that both sides of the debate exhibited perversely illogical inconsistencies. The book is extremely well written, well organized, and thoroughly researched. GREGORY J. MOORE is an associate professor of international Gregory D. Koblentz, George Mason University

A complete guide to preventing and resolving problems associated with wildlife-human interactions.
Whether you are a student in a wildlife degree program or a professional wildlife biologist, you will find all the up-to-date information on wildlife damage in the pages of this clear, comprehensive text. Wildlife Damage Management includes pertinent biological and ecological concepts, management methods, and legal and political aspects. Experts on the topic, authors Russell F. Reidinger, Jr., and James E. Miller explain the evolution of wildlife damage management, differentiate fact from myth, and detail the principles and techniques with which a professional in the field should be familiar. They cover both plants and animals, North American as well as exotic invasive species, zoonotic diseases, damage to crops, livestock, and property, and threats to endangered or threatened fauna and flora. In recent years, the rate of unwanted human-wildlife interactions has risen in many areas, owing in part to the expansion of residences into places formerly wild or agricultural, making wildlife damage management even more relevant.

THE PLACEBO
A Reader
edited by FRANKLIN G. MILLER, LUANA COLLOCA, ROBERT A. CROUCH, and TED J. KAPTCHUK
The placebo effect is a fascinating but elusive phenomena. Although no standard definition of the placebo effect exists, it is generally understood as consisting of responses of individuals to the psychosocial context of medical treatments or clinical encounters, as distinct from specific physiological effects of medical interventions. The Placebo is the first book to compile a selection of classic and contemporary published articles on the topic. Systematic investigation of the placebo effect emerged in the 1950s in response to the development of randomized controlled clinical trials that used inert placebo interventions as a pivotal element of scientific evaluation of novel drugs. The Placebo is organized into three sections: the nature and significance of the placebo effect, experimental studies of the placebo effect, and ethical issues of placebos in research and in clinical practice. This comprehensive sourcebook will be invaluable to investigators and scholars alike.
LUANA COLLOCA is a research fellow at the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine and the National Institute of Mental Health, and an adjunct faculty member in the Department of Bioethics at NIH.
