Grandma Gatewoods Walk


The Inspiring Story of the Woman Who Saved the Appalachian Trail
Ben Montgomery
Co-op available Emma Gatewood was the first woman to hike the entire Appalachian Trail alone, as well as the first personman or womanto walk it twice and three times and she did it all after the age of 65. This is the first and only biography of Grandma Gatewood, as the reporters called her, who became a hiking celebrity in the 1950s and 60s. She appeared on TV with Groucho Marx and Art Linkletter, and on the pages of Sports Illustrated. The public attention she brought to the little-known footpath was unprecedented. Her vocal criticism of the lousy, difficult stretches led to bolstered maintenance, and very likely saved the trail from extinction. Author Ben Montgomery was given unprecedented access to Gatewoods own diaries, trail journals, and correspondence. He also unearthed historic newspaper and magazine articles and interviewed surviving family members and hikers Gatewood met along the trail. The inspiring story of Emma Gatewood illustrates the full power of human spirit and determination. Ben Montgomery is a staff writer at the Tampa Bay Times and cofounder of the Auburn Chautauqua, a Southern writers collective. He was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in 2010 and has won many other national writing awards. He has worked at newspapers in Arkansas, Texas, New York, and Florida. He currently lives in Tampa, Florida.

Pedestrianism
When Watching People Walk Was Americas Favorite Spectator Sport
Matthew Algeo
Co-op available Advertising in the New York Review of Books and Mental_Floss magazine Strange as it sounds, during the 1870s and 1880s, Americas most popular spectator sport wasnt baseball, football, or horseracingit was competitive walking. Inside sold-out arenas, competitors walked around dirt tracks almost nonstop for six straight days (never on Sunday), risking their health and sanity to see who could walk the farthestmore than 500 miles. These walking matches were as talked about as the weather, the details reported in newspapers and telegraphed to fans from coast to coast. This long-forgotten sport, known as pedestrianism, spawned Americas first celebrity athletes and opened doors for immigrants, African Americans, and women. But along with the excitement came the inevitable scandals, charges of doping and insider gambling, and even a riot in 1879. Pedestrianism chronicles competitive walkings peculiar appeal and popularity, its rapid demise, and its enduring influence. Matthew Algeo is the author of Harry Trumans Excellent Adventure, Last Team Standing, and The President Is a Sick Man. An award-winning journalist, he has reported from three continents for public radios All Things Considered, Marketplace, and Morning Edition. He lives in Washington, DC.

The Admiral and the Ambassador


One Mans Obsessive Search for the Body of John Paul Jones
Scott Martelle
Co-op available Advertising on GoodReads.com and in Military History and the New York Review of Books Part history, part biography, and part detective story, this compelling account chronicles Horace PortersCivil War hero, aide to thenGeneral Ulysses S. Grant, Republican fundraiser, and U.S. ambassador to Francetireless search for the body of navy hero John Paul Jones. As the French Revolution gathered steam, the exact location of Joness graveand, in fact, the exact location of St. Louis cemetery in Paris, where he was buried in 1792was forgotten: information on his death and burial were destroyed in the Paris Commune and the few who had attended his burial had passed away. His body had, though, been preserved in a lead-lined coffin filled with alcohol; theoretically, if the coffin could be located, Jones could be returned to the United States for proper burial. The Admiral and the Ambassador details Porters long, unrelenting search for that coffin, first through scraps of archive material and written recollections of funeral attendees, and then beneath the rickety buildings that had been constructed over what he believed to be the graveyard. This book, the only full-length account of the search for and discovery of John Paul Joness body, offers a fascinating look into the charismatic, real-life characters who populated the first century of the United States of America. Scott Martelle is a professional journalist who has written for the Detroit News, the Los Angeles Times, and the Rochester TimesUnion, among other publications. His previous books include Blood Passion, Detroit: A Biography, and The Fear Within. He lives in Irvine, California.

Nuclear 2.0
Why a Green Future Needs Nuclear Power
Mark Lynas
A passionate appeal to environmentalists to embrace all the tools available that can tackle climate changethis book deserves to be read. David MacKay, FRS, chief scientific advisor to the UK Department of Energy and Climate Change The book is an absorbing read, but not a comfortable one. Economist on The God Species Authors previous books sold more than 30,000 copies By making use of the latest in world energy statistics, author Mark Lynas shows that with wind and solar still at only about one percent of global primary energy, looking to renewable energy as a solution to deliver all the worlds power is a dangerously delusional concept. Moreover, with no possibility reducing the worlds energy usagewhen the developing world is fast extricating itself from poverty and adding the equivalent of a new Brazil to the global electricity consumption each yearadditional solutions are needed. This book then details how the antinuclear movement of the 1970s and 1980s succeeded only in making the world more dependent on fossil fuels. Instead of making the same mistake again, this book shows how all those who want to see a low-carbon future need to join forces by backing an ambitious proposal for a combined investment in wind, solar, and nuclear power.

The Power of Just Doing Stuff


How Local Action Can Change the World
Rob Hopkins
Packed with real-life examples and the voices of people who have created innovative local businesses and invested in all manner of new enterprises, this call for local action argues that the seed of a new economyand the answer to the desperate search for a new way forward in an increasingly economically insecure and ecologically unstable worldis an understanding by individuals that change starts with them. The aim of the Transition movement is to galvanize people into taking action, whether on a large or a small scale, with the goal of creating communities that model a local economy rooted in place, in well-being, in entrepreneurship, and in creativity. While the book is primarily focused on food production and sustainable energy, the practical applications it offers also address how to rebuild a local community in the face of austerity due to a natural disaster or economic collapse. Eschewing political arguments of any kind, this discussion will appeal to readers of all persuasions who are eager to play a role in creating a more stable and healthier world one community at a time. Rob Hopkins is the cofounder of Transition Town Totnes and of the Transition Network. He set up the first two-year, full-time permaculture course in the world at Kinsale Further Education College in Ireland, as well as the first ecovillage development in Ireland to be granted planning permission. He is the author of The Transition Handbook: From Oil Dependence to Local Resilience and The Transition Companion: Making Your Community More Resilient in Uncertain Times and the coauthor of Local Food: How to Make It Happen in Your Community.

Behold a Pale Farce


Cyberwar, Threat Inflation, & the Malware Industrial Complex
Bill Blunden and Violet Cheung
This book presents a data-driven message that exposes the cyberwar media campaign being directed by the Pentagon and its patronage networks. By demonstrating that the American public is being coerced by a threat that has been blown out of proportionmuch like the run-up to the Gulf War or the global war on terrorthis book discusses how the notion of cyberwar instills a crisis mentality that discourages formal risk assessment, making the public anxious and hence susceptible to ill-conceived solutions. With content that challenges conventional notions regarding cyber security, Behold a Pale Farce covers topicsincluding cybercrime; modern espionage; mass-surveillance systems; and the threats facing infrastructure targets such as the Federal Reserve, the stock exchange, and telecommunicationsin a way that provides objective analysis rather than advocacy. This book is a must-read for anyone concerned with the recent emergence of Orwellian tools of mass interception that have developed under the guise of national security. Bill Blunden is an independent investigator whose current areas of inquiry include information security, antiforensics, and institutional analysis. He is the author of several books, including Offshoring IT: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly and The Rootkit Arsenal. Violet Cheung is a professor of psychology at the University of San Francisco. Her research addresses self-control, aggression, and war. They both live in San Francisco.

Excerpt: The primary outcome of the Cyberwar campaign is mass anxiety, where people become so apprehensive and uneasy that theyll accept any solution to feel safe again. This is convenient because the solutions being proposed by the Cyberwar crowd harken back to the Cold War. Theres a heavy emphasis on massive retaliation and Orwellian surveillance schemes, neither of which are constructive approaches. These supposed remedies would only channel vast sums of money to the defense industry and further infringe on our civil liberties by enhancing government control. Theres a very real effort afoot to create the perception of an imminent and grave threat. A public that feels panicky will pay dearly to make the anxiety go away, much to the benefit the same people stoking the coals of alarm. What society needs to do is to collectively step back, take a deep breath, and approach the topic from a more rational frame of mind. As far as the domain of politics is concerned, propaganda and secrecy will always exist as means to sabotage decision making. In countries like the United States, however, which have provisions for freedom of speech there are opportunities to shed light on complicated topics.

Big Boy
Chris Christies Appetite for Power
Louis Michael Manzo
In this searing tell-all, former New Jersey State Assemblyman Louis Manzo recounts an extraordinary tale of political ruthlessness, corruption, and greed while also telling the story of being caught in the center of one of the most egregious political scandals in modern-day history: the Bid Rig III sting operation masterminded by Governor Chris Christie. Manzo discusses how the blind ambitions of Christie and his staff entailed capturing a governorship and the patronage jobs that accompany it, and then parlaying that office into a shot at the presidency. Big Boy then makes the convincing case for how the governor is not the champion of reform he is depicted as, but rather a sinister political figure deftly vying for a seat in the Oval Office, making this book a must-read for anyone with an interest in the 2016 presidential election. Louis Michael Manzo is a former state assemblyman and the author of Gods Earth Also Cries. He lives in Belmar, New Jersey.

Excerpt: The buried truth of how Christies prosecutors corrupted the Bid Rig III investigation to help tilt the gubernatorial election in his favor would soon surface. Department of Justice staffseemingly in the New Jersey District United States Attorneys Office would play the role of a deep throat and out the corruption. The truth was ugly and it gave a glimpse of the depth of depravity that prosecutors stooped to in violating their oaths of office in order to cash in on Christies promises of jobs. It started to unravel for prosecutors a few short weeks after the arrests went down. The Associated Press would report that Ralph Marra was facing an internal ethics investigation over public comments that may have helped his ex-boss campaign for governor, law enforcement officials told The Associated Press today. During one of the nonstop press conferences on the day of the sting, when asked about corruption in New Jersey, the man who was inline to be tapped by Christie as the Senior Vice President of the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authorities, said: There are easily reforms that could be made within this state that would make our job easier, or even take some of the load off our job. There are too many people that profit off the system the way it is and so they have no incentive to change it. The few people that want to change it seem to get shouted down. So how long that cycles going to continue I just dont know. The Department of Justice has strict guidelines cautioning that prosecutors shall refrain from making extrajudicial comments that pose a serious and imminent threat of heightening public condemnation of the accused.

Servitors of Empire
Studies in the Dark Side of Asian America
Darrell Y. Hamamoto
Forcing a fundamental rethinking of the Asian American elite, many of whom have attained top positions in business, government, academia, sciences, and the arts, this book will be certain to generate a good deal of controversy and honest discussion regarding the role Asian Americans will play in the new century as China and India loom ever larger in the world economic system. Not since the large-scale infusion of scientists and engineers fleeing Nazi Germany has there been such a mass importation of intellectual labor from U.S. client states in Asia. One of the specialized tasks assigned to this group is to build the technetronic infrastructure for the new world order command and control system. Servitors of Empire is not intended to fan the flames of suspicion and paranoia aimed at Asian Americans, but serves to illuminate the way in which highly trained knowledge workers are being employed to bring sovereign nations such as the United States under centralized rule made possible through advances in bioscience, IT, engineering, and global finance. Darrell Y. Hamamoto is a professor in the department of Asian American studies at the University of CaliforniaDavis. He is the author of Monitored Peril: Asian Americans and the Politics of TV Representation, Nervous Laughter: Television Situation Comedy and Liberal Democratic Ideology, and New American Destinies: A Reader in Contemporary Asian and Latino Immigration.

The Dangerous Divide


Peril and Promise on the US-Mexico Border
Peter Eichstaedt
Co-op available Advertising in the New York Review of Books How do we balance border security and Americas need for a vital workforce while continuing to provide access to the American dream? Since the attacks of 9/11, the United States has steadily ramped up security along the U.S.-Mexico border, transforming Americas legendary Southwest into a frontier of fear. Veteran journalist Peter Eichstaedt roams this fabled region from Tucson, Arizona, to El Paso, Texas, meeting with migrants, border security advocates, and communities ravaged by cross-border crime. He rides with the border patrol and reveals the tragic situation that has evolved along the border. Eichstaedt finds that despite tens of thousands of border agents and the expenditure of billions of dollars, an estimated one million Mexicans and Central Americans continue to cross the border each year. These migrants fill jobs that have become the underpinnings of the U.S. economy. Rather than building more and better barricades, Eichstaedt argues that the United States must reform its immigration and drug laws and acknowledge that costly, counterproductive, and antiquated policies have created deadly circumstances on both sides of the border. Recognizing the truth of Americas long and tortured relations with Mexico must be followed by legitimizing the contributions made by migrants to the American way of life. Peter Eichstaedt is a veteran journalist who has reported from locations worldwide, including Slovenia, Moldova, Afghanistan, Albania, Armenia, and Uganda. He attended the University of the Americas in Mexico City and lived and worked as a journalist in Santa Fe, New Mexico, for more than 20 years. He worked most recently as the Afghanistan Country Director of the Institute for War and Peace Reporting in Kabul. He is the author of Above the Din of War, Consuming the Congo, First Kill Your Family, If You Poison Us, and Pirate State. He lives in Denver, Colorado.

Nine Lives of a Black Panther


A Story of Survival
Wayne Pharr
Co-op available In the early morning hours of December 8, 1969, hundreds of SWAT officers engaged in a violent battle with a handful of Los Angelesbased members of the Black Panther Party for SelfDefense (BPP). Five hours and 5,000 rounds of ammunition later, three SWAT team members and three Black Panthers lay wounded. For the Panthers and the community that supported them, the shootout symbolized a victory, and a key reason for that victory was the actions of a 19-year-old rank-and-file member of the BPP: Wayne Pharr. Nine Lives of a Black Panther tells Pharrs riveting story of life in the Los Angeles branch of the BPP and gives a blow-by-blow account of how it prepared for and survived the massive attack. He illuminates the history of one of the most dedicated, dynamic, vilified, and targeted chapters of the BPP, filling in a missing piece of Black Panther history and, in the process, creating an engaging and hard-to-put-down memoir about a time and place that holds tremendous fascination for readers interested in African American militancy. Wayne Pharr was a captain of the Los Angeles branch of the Black Panther Party for Self Defence and has traveled throughout the country as a spokesman for the party. He lives in Los Angeles.

Anthropology, Ecology, and Anarchism


A Brian Morris Reader
Brian Morris Introduction by Peter Marshall
Co-op available Advertising in Anarchist Studies, Freedom, Jacobin, Mute, and n+1 (June) Over the course of a long career, Brian Morris has created an impressive body of engaging and insightful writingsfrom social anthropology and ethnography to politics, history, and philosophythat is accessible to the layperson without sacrificing analytical rigor. But until now, the essays collected here, originally published in obscure journals and political magazines, have been largely unavailable to the broad readership to which they are so naturally suited. The opposite of arcane, specialized writing, Morriss work takes an interdisciplinary approach that offers connections between various scholarly interests and anarchist politics and thought. There is a long history of anarchist writers drawing upon works in a range of fields, and Morriss essays both explore past connections and suggest ways that broad currents of anarchist thought will have new and ever-emerging relevance for anthropology and many other ways of understanding social relationships. Brian Morris is professor emeritus of anthropology at Goldsmiths College, London. He is the author of Ecology and Anarchism: Essays and Reviews on Contemporary Thought. Peter Marshall is the author of 15 highly acclaimed books, including the landmark history of anarchism Demanding the Impossible.

Turning Money into Rebellion


The Unlikely Story of Denmarks Revolutionary Bank Robbers
Gabriel Kuhn
The story of how some pro-Palestinian activists become Denmarks most successful bank robbers is more exciting than any thriller. sa Linderborg, editor, Aftonbladet Co-op available In May of 1989, on a quiet street in Copenhagen, police discovered an apartment that had served for years as a hideaway for Denmarks most notorious 20th-century bank robbers. The members, who belonged to a communist organization and lived modest lives in the Danish capital, had, over a period of almost two decades, sent millions in stolen dollars acquired in spectacular heists to Third World liberation movements, in particular the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. One of the most puzzling and captivating chapters from the European anti-imperialist milieu of the 1970s and 1980s, Turning Money into Rebellion is the first-ever account of the story in English, covering the events from Middle Eastern capitals and African refugee camps to the groups fateful last robbery that earned them a record haul and left a police officer dead. The book includes historical documents, illustrations, and an exclusive interview with Torkil Lauesen and Jan Weimann, two of the groups longest-standing members. It is a compelling tale of turning radical theory into action and concerns analysis and strategy as much as morality and political practice.

De Crcys art is breathtaking, he lives up to his reputation as a mad genius with this amusing work.

Excerpt: People tell me that I am dreaming if I believe that we can create unity amongst the Jewish people in Israel. My response to those doubters is clear and to the point. Growing up in Silver Spring, Maryland, we used to take the short ride to Washington, DC a few times a year to demonstrate on behalf of Russian Jewry in front of the Soviet Embassy. During one of those protests, someone handed me a sign to hold up in silent demonstration. The sign read: Free Yuli Edelstein. Today, decades later, I sit in the Knesset chamber as a member of the Israeli parliament and in the front of the room sits the speaker of the KnessetYuli Edelstein. Dreams can come true. We just have to believe in ourselves and believe in mans capacity to accomplish the impossible. King David wrote that in our return to Zion we are like dreamers. Living in the land of Israel is a dream.

Excerpt: I love to give and receive gifts. I enjoy the suspense of the unwrapping, the strengthened relationship that can emerge, and the opportunity to provide another with something new that they didnt expect to receive. After all, life is about giving and giving gifts is just another way to fulfill our purpose. Over the years, however, Ive been struggling to decide how to approach my annual Chanukah gift buying, and how I can best raise my sensitivities to give better. I wonder how valuable it is to spend so many hours (and hundreds of dollars) shopping for gifts, only to find myself often feeling worse at the end of the day. Further, Im turned off each year by the parts of our gift culture, such as aggressive competitiveness, that come with the holiday sales. Two of my favorite stores were involved in an alleged riot over $2 waffle irons at a Little Rock Wal-Mart and a pepper-spray attack over discounted Xbox games. We can seek to repair how we give to others at the holiday time. The root of the Hebrew word for love (ahava) is hav, which means to give. When we give to another, we can come to love that individual more. This is why a parent generally loves a child more than the child can love the parent. When we allow others to give to us, we can allow them to love us.

Kaddish
Womens Voices
Edited by Michal Smart and Barbara Ashkenas
In addition to providing a dynamic view of feminism and Judaism, the collection coheres as a community of women experienced in mourning as a human sensibility, opening the titular theme to others who may feel alone in their bereavement. Francisca Goldsmith, Booklist Co-op available For centuries, Jews have turned to the Mourners Kaddish prayer upon experiencing a loss. This groundbreaking book explores what the recitation of Kaddish has meant specifically to women. Did they find the consolation, closure, and community they were seeking? How did saying Kaddish affect their relationships with God, with prayer, with the deceased, and with the living? With courage and generosity, 52 authors from around the world reflect upon their experiences of mourning. They share their relationships with the family members they lost and what it meant to move on; how they struggled to balance the competing demands of child rearing, work, and grief; what they learned about tradition and themselves; and the disappointments and particular challenges they confronted as women. The collection shares viewpoints from diverse perspectives and backgrounds and examines what it means to heal from loss and to honor memory in family relationships, both loving and fraught with pain. It is a precious record of women searching for their place within Jewish tradition and exploring the connections that make human life worthwhile. Michal Smart is a founder of the TEVA Learning Center and the coauthor of Spirit in Nature: Teaching Judaism and Ecology on the Trail. Barbara Ashkenas has served as an adjunct professor of art education at Housatonic Community College. They both live in Stamford, Connecticut.

Moses and the Path to Leadership


Zvi Grumet
Dr. Zvi Grumets superb meditation on Moses leadership employs his real setbacks as part of the amazing narrative of learning and building from humiliating defeat. Grumets direct conversational style makes texts accessible, context illuminating, and the subtext gripping. Grumet gets under the story to find what is truly at stake. His exciting analysis of the Spys Evil Report and the social upheaval in its wake alone is worth buying and reading the book. Rabbi Daniel Landes, Pardes Institute of Jerusalem Many believe that the stories surrounding the birth of Moses mark him from the cradle as being destined for leadership. Others argue that the track record of Moses as a leader leaves much to be desired, and that without the constant prompting by God, he would never have survived. The central proposition in this book is that neither of these polar positions reflects the profound transformations and growth of the experiences of Moses and that it is only within the turbulent space of change that he becomes a great leader, but not without his fair share of missteps along the way. It is precisely within, and from, those mistakes that Moses learns and ultimately becomes a model leader. This book traces this path to leadership and readers are given close readings of the text as stepping stones to developing themes and patterns. Zvi Grumet is a rabbi and a senior staff member at the Lookstein Center for Jewish Education where he is the editor of the journal Jewish Educational Leadership. He is the chairman of the Bible department at Yeshivat Eretz Hatzvi and is a faculty member at the Pardes Institute in Jerusalem.

On the Relationship of Mitzvot Between Man and His Neighbor and Man and His Maker
Daniel Sperber
Co-op available This study seeks to examine the relationship between the two major categories of commandments (mitzvot): ritual commands (between man and his Maker) and social interpersonal commands (between man and his neighbor). It is argued here that when there is a clash between these two categories, and one cannot carry out both, the interpersonal mitzvot almost always override those of a ritual nature. Different scenarios from a broad spectrum of Jewish law are cited to prove this contention, and the conclusion is underscored through the examination of the behavior and rulings of several leading Jewish legal authorities. Finally, the implications of this conclusion and their impact on religious educational direction and rationale are also discussed. Daniel Sperber is a leading scholar of Jewish law, customs, and ethics. He has taught in the Talmud department of Bar-Ilan University, was the dean of the faculty of Jewish studies, and serves as the president of the Jesselson Institute for Advanced Torah Studies. The incumbent of the Milan Roven Chair of Talmudic Research, he received the Israel Prize in 1992 for his research in Talmud and the history of Jewish customs, and served as the chairman of the Council for Religious Education at the Israel Ministry of Education for a decade. He has published 30 booksincluding a well-known eight-volume series, Minhagei Yisrael, on the history of Jewish customsand more than 400 articles on the subjects of Talmudic and Jewish socioeconomic history, law and customs, classical philology, and Jewish art.

The Race to Save Our Century


How Modern Man Embraced Subhumanism and the Great Campaign to Build a Culture of Life
Jason Jones and John Zmirak
Jason Jones is a passionate, brilliant, and incisive advocate for saving the culture and saving souls from self-destruction. He does more in a few minutes than many do in a lifetime. Ted Baehr, publisher and editor in chief, Movieguide In this book, Jason Jones and John Zmirak employ vast historical knowledge and deep Christian insight to show how the confident secular humanism that props up Western society has crumbling feet of clay. . . . Read this book to find out how that happened and what you can do to help reverse the collapse before its too late. Joseph Farah, editor in chief, WorldNetDaily $20,000 marketing budget; co-op available Advertising in America magazine, the American Spectator, TheBlaze.com, Christianity Today, Commonweal magazine, First Things, National Catholic Reporter, NationalReview.com, Our Sunday Visitor, Touchstone, and the Wanderer In this call to a return to the morals, values, and convictions that championed social justice and responsibility, human rights activist Jason Jones joins scholar John Zmirak to expose the historical roots of ideologies that debase human dignity and to lay out five core principles to save the 21st century from the global conflicts, genocides, and wars that plagued the 20th. The authors trace the origins of secularism to the failures of Christians to live out their faith, and explain how humanism declined inexorably into subhumanism, which they categorize as the mishmash of pseudo-Christian, vaguely liberal, half-cynical assertions that is the unspoken philosophy of the post-Christian West. The diatribe takes subhumanists to task for disavowing the human-rights abuses inflicted during the 20th century while promoting a worldview that offers no strong arguments to prevent such abuses happening againperhaps in different forms. The book also dissects what Pope John Paul II termed the Culture of Death, and presents essential principles that must be embraced if human dignity and freedom are to be the hallmarks of the 21st century. Jason Jones is the president and founder of Whole Life America, a nonprofit organization that promotes the dignity of the human person regardless of ability, age, status, race, or geography. He lives in Hawaii. John Zmirak is an editor, a journalist, a college teacher, and a political commentator.

Excerpt: How did we get here? Put simply and starkly, we tried to pursue a humanist project of understanding and uplifting human life, and in the process identified God as largely an obstacle, even an enemy. So we tried to root him out, to create consistent systems that preserved all the good things wed come to take for granted in Western society, while excising any reference to transcendent underpinnings. We tried to build the steeple on the temple of humanity with steel ripped from its foundations. Predictably, the whole tower collapsed, in the muck and the killing fields of the twentieth century. It is now clear to honest thinkers that you cannot keep on believing in human dignity without some transcendent reference point. We cant pull ourselves up out of the animal kingdom by our bootstraps, any more than an alcoholic can claw his way out of the drunk tank without a higher power. We cant even teach ourselves to see other people as ends rather than means, unless we all agree on some ultimate Meaning thats more important than what feels good, then doing it.

Marcion and Prometheus


Balthasar Against the Expulsion of Jewish Origins from Modern Religious Dialogue
Anthony Sciglitano
This brilliant book is a contribution not only to von Balthasar scholarship, but also to the wider world of interreligious dialogue. . . . A stunning achievement. David Tracy, author, Dialogue with the Other: The Inter-Religious Dialogue Co-op available Advertising in First Things and Theology Today Highlighting the dangerous tendency among the humanist critics of Christianity to dismiss or debunk the religious claims of historic Judaism, this study defends the importance of Jewish revelation and seeks to build a bridge between conservative Christians and faithful Jews. In doing so, it clarifies the uniqueness and historical claims of Christianity, especially in the context of interreligious dialogue. The book grounds itself in the thought of Swiss theologian and priest Hans Urs von Balthasar, who argued that the Western modernist dismissal of Jewish religious was a reinvention of the historical heresy of Marcionism, which rejected the Hebrew Bible and the Old Testament God. The book contends that for genuine, effective interreligious dialogue to occur, there must be more respect for Jewish origins. Anthony Sciglitano is an associate professor in, and the chair of, the department of religion at Seton Hall University, as well as the director of the university core curriculum housed in the Institute for Interdisciplinary Studies. His areas of focus are theological hermeneutics; theology, religion, and secularism; theology of religions; and fundamental religion. He has published articles in Modern Theology and the journal Pro-Ecclesia, which focuses on CatholicEvangelical dialogue. He lives in Newark, New Jersey.

Anatomy of Misremembering
Von Balthasars Response to Philosophical Modernity. Volume 1: Hegel
Cyril ORegan
ORegans telling of this theological story is nothing less than a tour d force! John Thiel, professor of religious studies, Fairfield University Co-op available Advertising in First Things, Theological Digest, and Theology Today This compelling work is the most comprehensive and sophisticated account to date of the relationship between Hans Urs von Balthasara Swiss theologian and Catholic priestand the German philosopher Georg Hegel. While underscoring the depth and breadth of Balthasars engagement with the philosopher, author Cyril ORegan argues that Balthasar is the most concertedly anti-Hegelian theologian of the 20th century. For him, it is essential to engage Hegel because of his corrections of sclerotic forms of premodern Christian thought, but even more importantly to resist and correct his systematic thought, which represents a comprehensive misremembering of the Christian thought, practices, and forms of life. An important and original work, this book addresses a topic that puts the possibility of an authentic postmodern theology at stake. Cyril ORegan is the Huisking Chair of Theology at the University of Notre Dame where he teaches on the subjects of systematic, historical, and philosophical theology. His writings have been widely published and he is the author of Gnostic Apocalypse, Gnostic Return in Modernity, and The Heterodox Hegel. He lives in Notre Dame, Indiana.

Excerpt: The story of Abraham is important so it is remembered and taught. The stories of Sarah, Hagar and the other women recorded in the Bible are equally important and interesting. There are no patriarchs without matriarchs. There are no church fathers without church mothers. It is time to celebrate the matriarchs and mothers of our faith. It is time to ask ourselves, Why do we believe what we believe? In 1976, historian Laurel Thatcher Ulrich coined the phrase, Well-behaved women seldom make history. Although women have contributed significantly to every culture, their contributions, until recently, have rarely been recorded or remembered. Well-behaved women remain in the private sphere out of the public eye. The Hebrew Bible mentions a total of 1,426 names, of which 1,315 are those of men. Thus, only 111 womens names appear, about 9 percent of the total. Where are all the other women? Well-behaved women are those who do not cross the religious, social or cultural barriers. There must have been more than 111 women crossing those religious, social and cultural barriers. The women who appear in the Hebrew Scriptures figured prominently in the stories of men. The women in Jesus genealogy, family, circle of friends and public works whose names, voices and thoughts are recorded, must have been remarkable. They were women who did not stay in the private sphere behind religious, social and cultural barriers. Their stories have been hidden or distorted by centuries of male-dominated interpretation. It is generally assumed that the biblical writers were male. What would the stories sound like if women told their own? The stories of the women presented here may be unfamiliar to the reader. I suggest the reader have her/his favorite biblical translation handy. The chapter and verse for each womans story is recorded before the re-creation to make finding each woman easier.

Clark Strand
$50,000 marketing budget; co-op available Advertising in Tricycle magazine (Spring and Summer) Author tour to include Boston and New York City (May) and Los Angeles (June) Is there more to Buddhism than sitting in silent meditation? Is modern Buddhism relevant to the problems of daily life? Does it empower individuals to transform their lives? Or has Buddhism become too detached, so still and quiet that the Buddha has fallen asleep? Waking the Buddha tells the story of the Soka Gakkai International, the largest, most dynamic Buddhist movement in the world todayand the one that has done more than any other to wake up and shake up Buddhism so it can once again work in ordinary peoples lives. Drawing on his long personal experience as a Buddhist teacher, journalist, and editor, Clark Strand offers broad insight into how and why the Soka Gakkai, with its commitment to social justice and its egalitarian approach, has become a role model, not only for other schools of Buddhism, but for other religions as well. Readers will be inspired by the struggles and triumphs of the Soka Gakkais three founding presidentsindividuals who staked their lives on the teachings of the Lotus Sutra and the extraordinary power of those teachings to help people become happy. Clark Strand is a spiritual writer and former Zen Buddhist monk who was previously senior editor of Tricycle magazine. He is the author of How to Believe in God: Whether You Believe in Religion or Not and Meditation Without Gurus as well as countless groundbreaking articles, including the first comprehensive feature article ever written in English on internet spirituality.

BUDDHISM/RELIGION & THEOLOGY, 192 PAGES, 5.5 X 8.5 TRADE PAPER, $14.95 (CAN $16.95)

Excerpt: Religions usually grow out of some revolutionary impulse initiallyin the beginning they may attempt to address racial or ethnic discrimination or economic inequality. However, as time goes on they invariably choose stability over all else, even at the expense of the ongoing spiritual evolution of humankind. Having woken us up initially, they allow us to grow drowsy again, sometimes for decades or centuries on end. To rouse itself from inertia, it is sometimes necessary for religion to reinvent itself through the work of revolution or reform, and I have no doubt that American Buddhism will do just that, modernizing those teachings which have come to it mostly in pre-modern form so that they address not just the need for peace of mind or an enhanced immune system but the need for a more equitable distribution of wealth and basic human rights for all. What distinguishes the Soka Gakkai from other Buddhist traditions in America is that it arrived on U.S. shores in the 1960s with that work largely accomplished. How did the Soka Gakkai accomplish what no other Buddhist school has, either in Japan or anywhere else? How has it managed to institutionalize the revolutionary impulse so that, rather than settling back into the

predictable mediocrity of a successful religion, it has spread across the globe? What is the driving force that has sustained the Soka Gakkai and preserved its unity as it has traveled to so many other countries and cultures around the world? How has it made the leap from national religious organization to international spiritual movement? My interest in answering these questions has less to do with the Soka Gakkai itself and more to do with my desire to discover what comes next for religion itself as we transition into a new millennium. For what the Soka Gakkai has discovered isnt just a new form of Buddhism. Its a new way of being religious.

Dizzy Gillespie: The Man Who Changed My Life


From the Memoirs of Arturo Sandoval
Robert Simon and Marianela Sandoval Foreword by Quincy Jones
Its a funny thing to reflect on the original clowning around and masterful improvising that Dizzy Gillespie did throughout his life. Dizzys incredible sense of humor goes with his brilliant sense of timing. However, his contribution to the art of music and humanity has rarely been equaled by any artist in the 20th century. This book reveals Dizzys struggle and perseverance to become an innovator and jazz master. His inspiration of Arturo Sandoval and countless others is a gift to us all. Bill Cosby Kudos to Robert Simon and Marianela Sandoval for this incisive pictorial on one of the greatest jazz trumpet players of our time and his struggle to bring himself and his music to our country with the help of his mentor and friend, the great Dizzy Gillespie, one of the godfathers of be bop. Joe Pesci This book is an intimate and unique peek inside the personal life and times of these two men, their careers, and their families. I feel truly honored and blessed to have worked with each of these multigenerational talents. They touch my heart deeply. I love Dizzy and Arturo and consider them both as my forever friends and brothers. Quincy Jones Arturo Sandoval is a recipient of the 2013 Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor 2013 marks the 20th anniversary of the passing of Dizzy Gillespie, a master entertainer and one of the greatest jazz musicians of all time. This book, from the memoirs of Cuban jazz trumpeter Arturo Sandoval, celebrates the relationship and influence Dizzy had with Arturo and his family. It tracks the remarkable story of how the two met in Cuba during a very restrictive period and the eventual role Dizzy would play in Arturos flight to freedom. It also recounts the modest start and parallels that exist between the two musicians as well as their career developments. Dizzy was so talented and creative, a true original, and a statesman on an international stage, but one of his greatest achievements and contributions to music was not only the discovery but the encouragement and promotion of Arturo Sandoval. Robert Simon is a writer, conductor, and businessman. He has written extensively about the wind band genre, including biographies of Percy Grainger and Frederick Fennell. He also leads a community wind band and plays trumpet. He lives in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Marianela Sandoval is the wife of Arturo Sandoval. She lives in Tarzana, California. Quincy Jones is a legendary record producer, conductor, arranger, composer, television producer, and trumpeter. He lives in Seattle.

Dance of Death
The Life of John Fahey, American Guitarist
Steve Lowenthal Foreword by David Fricke
Co-op available Advertising in American Songwriter, Blurt, and No Depression magazines John Fahey is to the solo acoustic guitar what Jimi Hendrix was to the electric: the man whom all subsequent musicians had to listen to. Fahey made more than 40 albums between 1959 and his death in 2001, most of them featuring only his solo steel-string guitar. He fused elements of folk, blues, and experimental composition, taking familiar American sounds and recontextualizing them as something entirely new. Yet despite his stature as a groundbreaking visionary, Faheys intentionsas a man and as an artistremain largely unexamined. Journalist Steve Lowenthal has spent years researching Faheys life and music, talking with his producers, his friends, his peers, his wives, his business partners, and many others. He describes Faheys battles with stage fright, alcohol, and prescription pills; how he ended up homeless and mentally unbalanced; and how, despite his troubles, he managed to found a record label that won Grammys and remains critically revered. This portrait of a troubled and troubling man in a constant state of creative flux is not only a biography but also the compelling story of a great American outcast. Steve Lowenthal started and ran the music magazine Swingset; his writing has also been published in Fader, Spin, Vice, and the Village Voice. He ran the record label Plastic for five years and currently runs the VDSQ label, which specializes in solo instrumental acoustic guitar music. He lives in New York City. David Fricke is a senior editor at Rolling Stone magazine.

Here Comes Everybody


The Story of the Pogues
James Fearnley
Fearnleys book fits perfectly with the Pogues: for all their earthiness, they were a band concerned with myths, from the Irish legends MacGowans lyrics relocated to the back streets and pubs of north London to the persistent rocknroll fable of the damned, beautiful loser. Theres nothing romantic about alcoholic self-destruction, as Here Comes Everybody makes clear, but a song as beautiful as A Pair of Brown Eyes can make you believe there isat least while its playing. In the process, MacGowan became a mythic figure himself: a myth, despite the unsparing detail that Fearnley ends up burnishing. Guardian If you think all rock-music memoirs are a mixture of PR fluff, second-hand observations and strategically selected memories, then Here Comes Everybody: The Story of the Pogues is the book to make you change your mind. . . . That Fearnley hasnt been quarantined for writing such a warts-and-all tale says much about the band and the bond formed across 30 fractious years. A band of brothers to the very end, then, and with a fine, salty memoir to raise a glass to. Irish Times Fearnleys descriptions of Shane MacGowan, the front man of the Irish folk-rock band the Pogues, suppurate with pure deliciousness. . . . In his own way, MacGowan is the ideal protagonisttalented, inspired, and halitotic, but flawed. . . . Read it, and exhale. Sunday Times The Pogues injected the fury of punk into Irish folk music and gave the world the troubled, iconic, darkly romantic songwriter Shane MacGowan. Here Comes Everybody is a memoir written by founding member and accordion player James Fearnley, drawn from his personal experiences and the series of journals and correspondence he kept throughout the bands career. Fearnley describes the coalescence of a disparate collection of vagabonds living in the squats of Londons Kings Cross, with, at its center, the charismatic MacGowan and his idea of turning Irish traditional music on its head. With beauty, lyricism, and great candor, Fearnley tells the story of how the band watched helplessly as their singer descended into a dark and isolated world of drugs and alcohol, and sets forth the increasingly desperate measures they were forced to take. James Fearnley is a musician who played guitar in various bands, including the Nips with Shane MacGowan, before becoming the accordion player who still tours with the Pogues. He lives in Los Angeles.

The History of UK Punk 19801984 Revised Edition
Ian Glasper
[A] chatty, engaging history [that] follows the regional lines along which UK punks second wave scene divided. Guardian Co-op available Advertising in AMP, Maximumrocknroll, and Razorcake The product of years of research, travel, and countless conversations, Burning Britain is the true story of the UK punk scene from 1980 to 1984 told for the first time by the bands and labels that created it. Covering the country region by region, author Ian Glasper profiles legendary bands like Vice Squad, Angelic Upstarts, Blitz, Anti-Nowhere League, Cockney Rejects, and the UK Subs as well as more obscure groups like Xtract, The Skroteez, and Soldier Dolls through hundreds of new interviews and photographs. As the 1970s closed the media was quick to declare punk dead, but a new generation of even more aggressive and political bands were announcing their presence through some of the most primal and potent music ever committed to plastic. This book is the definitive guide to that previously overlooked era. Ian Glasper is a writer, the founder of the now-defunct Blackfish Records, which released 20 punk, hardcore, and metalcore albums, and a member of many DIY punk bands.

The Day the Country Died


A History of Anarcho Punk 19801984 Revised Edition
Ian Glasper
Co-op available Advertising in AMP, Maximumrocknroll, and Razorcake In this revealing history, author, historian, and musician Ian Glasper explores in minute detail the influential and esoteric UK anarcho-punk scene of the early 1980s. Where some of the colorful punk bands from the first half of the decade were loud, political, and uncompromising, their anarcho-punk counterparts were even more so, totally prepared to risk their liberty to communicate the ideals they believed in so passionately. With Crass and Poison Girls opening the floodgates, the arrival of bands such as Amebix, Chumbawamba, Flux of Pink Indians, and Zounds heralded a new age of honesty and integrity in underground music. New, exclusive interviews and hundreds of previously unreleased photographs document the impact of all of the scenes biggest namesand a fair few of the smaller oneshighlighting how anarcho-punk took the rebellion inherent in punk from the very beginning to a whole new level of personal awareness. Ian Glasper is a writer, the founder of the now-defunct Blackfish Records, which released 20 punk, hardcore, and metalcore albums, and a member of many DIY punk bands. He is the author of Armed with Anger and Trapped in a Scene: UK Hardcore 19851989.

Wonder Woman Unbound


The Curious History of the Worlds Most Famous Heroine
Tim Hanley
Co-op available Advertising in Bust and GoodReads.com With her golden lasso and bullet-deflecting bracelets, Wonder Woman is a beloved icon of female strength in a world of male superheroes. But this close look at her history portrays a complicated heroine who is more than just a female Superman. The original Wonder Woman was ahead of her time, advocating female superiority and the benefits of matriarchy in the 1940s. At the same time, her creator filled the comics with titillating bondage imagery, and Wonder Woman was tied up as often as she saved the world. The 1950s and 1960s saw the superheroines star wane as she lost her motivation and her superpowers and flitted from man to man, but Ms. magazine and Lynda Carter restored Wonder Womans feminist strength in the 1970s, turning her into a powerful symbol as her checkered past was quickly forgotten. Exploring this lost history as well as her modern incarnations adds new dimensions to the worlds most beloved female character, and Wonder Woman Unbound delves into her comic book and its spin-offs as well as the myriad motivations of her creators to showcase the peculiar journey that led to Wonder Womans iconic status. Tim Hanley is a comic book historian. He writes a blog, Straitened Circumstances, that discusses Wonder Woman and women in comics, and his monthly column, Gendercrunching, runs on BleedingCool.com. He has also written several articles for the Tumblr magazine DC Women Kicking Ass. He lives in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Co-op available New in paper, also available in cloth (9781936182404) The first full-length, authoritative, and detailed story of the iconic actors life to go beyond the Hollywood scandal-sheet reporting of earlier books, this account offers an appreciation for the man, his acting career, and the classic films he starred in, painting a portrait of an individual who took great risks in his acting and career.

Now, after years of researching and compiling interviews with family members, friends, and colleagues; rare photographs; and illustrative material, Hollywood writer Dwayne Epstein provides a full understanding and appreciation of this acting titans place in the Hollywood pantheon in spite of his very real and human struggles. Dwayne Epstein is a freelance journalist and author whose work has appeared in numerous film publications and newspapers, including FilmFax, Outre, and Variety, as well as Bill Krohns books Serious Pleasures and Hitchcock at Work. A lifetime fan and collector of Lee Marvin photos and memorabilia, he has appeared in the A&E Biography episode devoted to Lee Marvin. He lives in Long Beach, California. Christopher Marvin is the son of Lee Marvin. He lives in Santa Barbara, California.

Excerpt: Fortunately, learning about classical music does not require anything like the time, talent, or dedication it takes to play it. The purpose of this book, in other words, is not to turn you into a Pavarottiwannabee, but simply to heighten your enjoyment as a listener. For starters, let's look at some of the basic elements that go into classical music. Rhythm is the heartbeat of music, propelling it forward. Just as there is rhythm to almost every human activity, from breathing to walking, the pulse of music often defines its character. There is the flowing measure of Gregorian chant, the precise and ordered cadences of a baroque concerto, and the syncopated beat of a Scott Joplin rag. A melody is a succession of single notes varying in pitch and strung together to form a satisfying entity. When you leave "The King and I" whistling a happy tune, that's the melody. When a Schubert song tugs at your heartstrings, or you have an uncontrollable urge to hum along with the "Full Moon and Empty Arms" theme of the Rachmaninoff Second Piano Concerto, the composer has succeeded in creating a melody to remember. Harmony is the simultaneous sounding of two or more notes. It enriches the sound of a melody, accentuates changing rhythmic patterns, and gives classical music its special richness and resonance. Aaron Copland said, "It represents one of the most original conceptions of the human mind."

Excerpt: I spent every afternoon and many nights playing hands on the dining room table. I dealt myself round after round after round of hands; keeping the running count, converting to the true count, and betting accordingly. I played four-deck games, six-deck games, and even eight-deck games, which were starting to take over Atlantic City. The more decks, the more patience you must have as the counts change somewhat slowly. The casino generally has a higher edge the more decks a game contains. I did learn certain things that served me well. There are many false notions held by many advantage-blackjack players. One has to do with how fast you can count down a deck of cards. You just keep flipping the cards over as fast as you can to see if you can count down the deck properly. Some blackjack teams actually use this as a test of how good a card counter is. At first I thought this was important and I would practice counting down a single deckbam, bam, bam, bam. Then I watched games in the casino and realized that even the fastest of the fastest dealers were actually pretty slow. The key was not to watch the dealer scurrying through his cards but simply to watch the cards on the table. The dealer could not deal like the superhero Flash, and those cards sat on the table for a sufficiently long enough time to have no problem counting them. It was nothing like the bam, bam, bam, bam of counting down a single deck. You just keep your eyes on the cards and not on the dealers motions. Gamblers have myths about playjust about all of those myths being wrongbut so do advantage players. Belief systems can make you see what you want to see. Counting down a single deck in a few seconds does not have any real meaning in a real game. The speed of blackjack games is actually easy to handle. I would say that all blackjack games are relatively slow, even the ones everyone thinks are fast. Dont watch the dealer, just watch the cards. Once I had a handle on how to play and I knew I was good, I told the Beautiful A.P., I want you to learn blackjack. I want us to eventually become a team. I want us to take it to the casinos.

Excerpt: Off the field, thousands of jobs were imperiled. Tens of thousands of workers whose jobs depend on baseball were huge losers as what would become the longest strike in professional sports continued. It reached deep into our society. Its a game that has created untold jobs and revenuefrom the concession operators to ticket takers to grounds crews to all the licensed merchandise that is sold. And then there is the tax revenue generated from all of the above, not to mention the taxes the teams and players themselves pay. The players believed that a third-party solution had a chance to be closer to the proposals owners repeatedly rejected. They wanted Clinton to hear their views as directly as possible. They took a heckuva shot that night to try to settle the issues. Thats why it went on and on and why we stayed there for such a long time, said David Cone. President Clinton was in and out of our sessions, trying to balance this with other pressing issues. Al Gore seemed to take the lead and Stephanopoulous facilitated the individual meetingstwo on twos, three on threes, breaking groups down trying to get things done. George was working the mechanism behind the scenes. Stephanoupoulos said, I wasnt a negotiator, just one of the White House representatives trying to facilitate the sessions more than anything else. Pausing and staring off into space, Cone said I almost felt embarrassed, telling the president, Weve taken up too much of your time. At one point, Clinton walked by and quipped, Its just a few hundred folks trying to figure out how to divide nearly $2 billion. They ought to be able to figure that out.

Excerpt from the foreword: It is a special pleasure to introduce this book about my father. Rob Goldman is a close family friend who knew Dad back in their days with the Angels, when Rob was a batboy for the team. His biography covers territory and issues not explored by other Nolan Ryan books. For one, it weaves together my fathers personality with his achievements in a way never presented before. It shows how Dads work ethic, his no-nonsense Texas character, his openness to new ideas about training, and, most significantly, his relationship to my mother, all worked together to enable him to achieve what most thought was impossiblepitching for 27 seasons at the top of his game, throwing seven no-hitters, amassing 5,714 strikeouts, and achieving 324 victories. The way Rob went about researching The Making of a Pitcher gives the book a depth that makes it a classic. He spent five years interviewing those who coached, trained, and played with and against Nolan. In this book are eyewitness accounts of key moments as viewed from the field, the press box, and the stands. Robs personal stories about time shared in the dugout and at home on the ranch reveal so much about how my parents feel about each other, and about their concept of friendship and loyalty. They also shine a very welcome light on the character of my parents. I am glad to see dads story told so fully, and to see my mother given her rightful place beside him. This is a treasure for our family, as I expect it will be for Nolan Ryan fans and for anyone who wants to better understand the game and how my dad helped to change it during his long career.

Excerpt: I laid the small object on the back of my hand to study it. Even though I had now lived many summers, perhaps as many as could be numbered on three hands, I was still ashamed of my pale skin and my fiery hair and the spray of tiny brown spots on my nose and cheeks. Long ago, when I was small, I had given up putting ashes on my hair to make it black, because the other girl-children had mocked me worse than before. But I still had the habit of hiding the palms of my hands as much as possible, for they remained even paler than the rest of my body because they had not been darkened by the sun. The object lying on my wrist was as big as a mans eye, but perfectly round, like the full moon. It was the color of dark sand, and no thicker than the thick edge of the comeback boomerang the boy-children played with, yet it was hard as stone, and as strong. I could not bend it. On the face of the strange object somebody had carved a tiny picture of a sitting-down person holding a spear with three points. When I looked closely I felt sure this was a woman, and I laughed because she had a funny kind of bowl upside down on her head. I turned the object over and found that almost the whole of the other side carried a carving of a womans head . . . .

I had heard, too, that far away where the edge of the world touched the great waters there were many new tribes who had come out of the waters and onto the land. Their skins were white and they wore coverings on their bodies all the year round, but these were not fashioned from possum or kangaroo skins, like the cloaks we wore on cold nights, and they could not have been woven from human hair, like the girdle I wore with its tassel of emu feathers, for no such quantity of human hair could exist. Sometimes, in secret, I wondered if it might be possible for me to live among one of these tribes.

Excerpt: Even before we reached the top of the Chak Pass, I saw the tall figure of Sembur begin to sway in the saddle, and knew that his heart was labouring badly in the thin air. A chill deeper than the coldness of the mountain winds touched my own heart, for Sembur was all I had. When I came up beside Sembur I reached out to grasp his arm and spoke in the tongue that only he and I knew, the tongue he had taught me from the beginning. In time to come I was to discover that I spoke it with a very bad accent, but at this time, when I was in my thirteenth year, I had never heard it on the lips of anyone but Sembur, and so I spoke the strange tongue just as he did. Sembur called it Hinglish, and was himself a Hinglishman, which meant that he came from a country on the other side of the world.

Futures
A Novel
John Barker
In this fast-paced, streetwise take on eighties London, boundaries blur between the cocaine trade and newly deregulated financial markets. . . . Barkers portrait of a cynical, money-hungry culture skewers a moment in history that for good or ill (and mostly for ill) made Britain what it is today. Hari Kunzru, author, The Impressionist and Memory Place The prose grabs you by the throat and squeezes. The characters are by turns reckless, ambitious, vulnerable, and weak. The story is set in the past but couldnt be more relevant. Futures is funny, frightening, and very dark.

Adding to the drama are a stock market crash that creates havoc, and a once-in-a-lifetime hurricane that sweeps across London, jeopardizing the communications system of the stock market itself. Carol is about to find herself at the intersection where three very different worlds are about to collide in this gripping crime novel. John Barker is a writer and book indexer. He is the author of Bending the Bars, a memoir of the time he spent in prison as a result of a conviction for conspiring to cause explosions.

I didnt know what to do, and had no intention of writing anything that I wasnt told to do, like a book report. After two days of worrying about this, I bought a post card at Schottensteins Drug Store, which became Discount Drug and Market before it became a CVS and now a DrugCoMart, currently owned by an investor group from Singapore that hires people to find places like Reeve on a map so they can buy more things when old men like Schottenstein die. I worked there for awhile, almost a rite of passage during high school, pulling in about four bucks an hour stocking shelves alongside my friends. Our girlfriends ran the registers, our moms and dads shopped in the store and a good story about a date could get you a night off from the sympathetic manager. When someone graduated, the manager would hire one of the workers friends and the cycle continued. I asked Angie once, What do you want to be when you grow up? and she answered Do I have to grow up? She said she didnt want to borrow someone elses dreams, she wanted her own, going everywhere shed never been until shed been everywhere.

Boundless Solitude
Selim Ileri
Boundless Solitude tells the story of Handan Sarp, a soprano at the Istanbul City Opera who has struggled throughout her life to come to terms with her lesbianism in a society that shuns the open expression of female queerness.

In her late 30s Handan was involved with a young working-class seamstress named Elem, but their relationship was strained by their class differences and they eventually parted ways. As the novel examines their relationship through Handans recollections mourning the loss of her lover, a powerful narrative of nostalgia for a lost past emerges. It highlights the nature of memory as a means of reconstructing the past for a woman whose loneliness results from her inner struggles as a lesbian in the restrictive social environment of Istanbul.

Katia Grubisic, author, What If Red Ran Out?, on the Ricochet series Part of the Ricochet series, which includes The Body on Mount Royal (9781550652901), The Crime on Cote des Neiges (9781550652840), Murder Over Dorval (9781550652918) and Sugar-Puss on Dorchester Street (9781550653496) A strange mixture of power, tension, and torment, Waste No Tears is a shocking expos of social evils with a forceful message for both sexes. Ignored by some critics, dismissed by others, this novel about the abortion racket is the stuff of legend: Hugh Garner claimed that it had been written in 10 days as part of a struggle to ward off incipient starvation; he was paid $400 for his efforts. Dark and disturbing, the story is a kind of memoir penned by Tom Matterson, a Cabbagetown son who spends 20 years making the 10-block journey from the street of his birth to skid row. Told from the perspective of its male narrator, the novel contains lurid descriptions of rapacious sex and harrowing depictions of death, boozing, brawling, blackmail, and back alley abortions. In Waste No Tears, the men are always tight and the women loose, and it is this downward spiral of sexual incontinence and drunken regret that propels the novel toward its morality-play conclusion. Hugh Garner was a Toronto novelist, short story writer, and journalist. He published 16 books during his lifetime, including Hugh Garners Best Stories, winner of the Governor Generals Award for English-language Fiction.

Birds Flock Fish School


Edward Carson
These uncommonly direct, deviously wrought poems show scant care for poetic fashion and no fear in addressing, head-on, what we all like to pretend isnt the quandary: Were not at all sure, before / knowing them, what we see is real, / what we see emerging and disappearing before us, / soon vanishes for good. Thats gorgeous, as is so much else here. Kevin Connolly, poet and author, Drift and Revolver Ed Carsons Taking Shape is a gem. In this new book of interconnected poems, in an attempt to name what love is, to give it a shape that can be grasped, like a metaphysical lapidarist he facets and re-facets its language so that the light it reveals refracts and reflects within it and exceeds its reason for being. Brian Henderson, author, Nerve Language, on Taking Shape Exploring the spontaneous interaction of behaviors by which birds flock and fish travel in schools, this collection of poetry sees language as an example of emergence. These shimmering poemswhich attempt to surprise the reader out of familiar ways of understanding nature, mortality, loss, and lovearticulate a vast, roving philosophical curiosity channeled through urgent form. Using a voice both sophisticated and simple, forged in unadorned couplets tuned to near-hallucinatory clarity, Carsons poems invent a new way of perceiving, a world where everything unites, at odds with itself. Edward Carson is the author of two previous books of poetry, Scenes and Taking Shape. He is a two-time winner of the E. J. Pratt Poetry Award and was writer in residence for Open Book Toronto in 2010. He lives in Toronto.

Dantes House
Richard Greene
Boxing the Compass, is excellent. Greene avoids the mundane through the clarity of his observation, the ingenuity of his rhyme, and the modesty of his wisdom. University of Toronto Quarterly on Boxing the Compass Taking as its subject the rumors, misunderstandings, and half-truths that often comprise our knowledge of others, this latest collection of poems from Richard Greene captures the various states of feeling that come with a flawed life. Moving from his mothers oil paintings and the harrowing conditions at a corrections facility to recollections of a much-loved mentor, this collection of verse is capped off by the lyrical and moving title poem. Written in fluent, colloquial terza rima and set in sundrenched Siena during the frenzied pageantry of the Italian citys biannual horse race, it is a brilliant, beautifully realized achievement that consolidates Greenes reputation as a master of narrative verse. Richard Greene is a professor of creative writing and British literature at the University of Toronto. He is the author of the biography Edith Sitwell: Avant Garde Poet, English Genius and three collections of poetry, including Boxing the Compass, which won the Governor Generals Award for poetry. He lives in Cobourg, Ontario.

Monsieur Notebooks
Hide Stationery Ltd
For too long, the notebook has been saddled with a less-than-stellar reputation; the word itself conjures up images of sixth-grade homerooms and cheap paper covers tearing away from spiral bindings. Monsieur Notebooks are crafted from an entirely different perspective: the belief that a good notebook can be a great companion, something to be treasured. These books come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors and are made out of top-grain leather that is inherently strong and flexible. They feel great, smell good, and wear beautifully. So whether users are taking them along on far-flung adventures or just subjecting them to the grind of daily life (and the bottom of a messenger bag), these tough notebooks remain the perfect place to record work, notes, sketches, or sudden flashes of inspiration. Hide Stationery Ltd produces the Monsieur Notebook line of blank books and journals.

Knit in New Directions


A Journey into Creativity
Myra Wood Photographs by Alexis Xenakis
Advertising in Knitters Magazine (February, May, August, and November 2014) Author tour to include Atlanta (April); Chicago (August); and Hartford, Connecticut (October) Freeing knitters with all levels of experience to become involved in the creative process and still make a garment that is knit-to-fit, this template-based approach is not mathdependent and works for people whether they prefer a structured or more free-form process. Knit in New Directions introduces techniques that encourage knitters to just have fun: strip knitting, creative short rows, patchwork, crazy quilt, and free-form knitting. It then explains the other essential toolfull-scale templates. Knitters learn to use the templates in the book and how to make one to their own measurements. Garment designs support each technique and template with two options. The Guided Tour provides full instructions for specific sizes as well as measure-as-you go versions. In the Alternative Routes, the template functions like a coloring book that allows the knitter to create completely new designs. Practical advice for how to achieve the best fit and finish is included with each design: blocking, a special stitch for seaming, and edge and embellishment options. Myra Wood is a fiber artist, a designer, and the author of Crazy Lace and Creative Crochet Lace along with numerous published patterns in magazines and books. She has appeared on TV shows, including Knitty Gritty, Knit and Crochet Now, and Uncommon Threads, and teaches a wide range of knit and crochet classes in person and online.

The Go-To Book for Irish Crochet Motifs


Kathryn White
Anyone who has ever tried to make an Irish crochet motif using Vintage pattern books most likely ended up confused, frustrated, and a bit bewildered. Those patterns are at best a bit vague, written in unclear, imprecise wording that makes them hard for the average crocheter to interpret. The Go-To Book for Irish Crochet Motifs takes these lovely motifs and writes them so that they make sense to the modern-day crocheter. Thus, these motifs are forever preserved, to be used now and in the future. Kathryn White is the author of Beautiful Bullions, Irish Crochet, More Table Runners in Half the Time, Old Fashioned Doilies, and Table Runners in Half the Time. She lives in Apache Junction, Arizona.

Excerpt: The foundation of open relationships is a simple idea: One person cant be a 100 percent perfect partner for any other person. Nor should we expect them to be. Hoping your boyfriend or girlfriend will fit unrealistic expectations of perfection is only going to lead to frustration, disappointment, and resentment. Under this idea, attraction to multiple people is a positive, honest, wholesome part of someones life, rather than an inherently nasty, negative urge to cheat.

Elaine Kalman Naves


In the winter of 1868, a name that Montreal society associated with art, good breeding, and culture became fodder for scandal mongers. The Notman name was suddenly making headlines featuring the words abortion and suicide. A dozen years earlier, two brothers fled their native Scotland. One was destined for fame, the other for notoriety. William Notman, the older brother, eventually owned the largest photography business in North America. His subjects ranged from royalty and the Fathers of Confederation to Sitting Bull and Harriet Beecher Stowe. By contrast, Robert was drawn into a drama which shook up Montreals polite society. After he seduced the beautiful Margaret Galbraith, he arranged an abortion for her with a young doctor who soon after committed suicide. The trial of Robert Notman became a cause-clbre in the newly minted Dominion of Canada in 1868. Portrait of a Scandal depicts a society that distanced itself from sexual misconduct, while it lapped up its every detail. Elaine Kalman Naves is an awardwinning journalist. She is the author of six books, among them the critically acclaimed Journey to Vaja and Shoshannas Story. She lives in Montreal.

Information Dashboard Design


Displaying Data for At-a-Glance Monitoring Second edition
Stephen Few
Authors previous books sold more than 100,000 copies Previous edition sold more than 50,000 copies A leader in the field of data visualization, Stephen Few exposes the common problems in dashboard design and describes its best practices in great detail and with a multitude of examples in this updated second edition. According to the author, dashboards have become a popular means to present critical information at a glance, yet few do so effectively. He purports that when designed well, dashboards engage the power of visual perception to communicate a dense collection of information efficiently and with exceptional clarity and that visual design skills that address the unique challenges of dashboards are not intuitive but rather learned.

Venceremos
Vctor Jara and the New Chilean Song Movement
Gabriel San Romn Foreword by T. M. Scruggs
When the socialist politician Salvador Allende dramatically won Chiles presidential election in 1970, a powerful cultural movement accompanied him to power as folk singers emerged at the forefront proving that music could help forge the birth of a new society. Venceremos charts the development of such a cultural phenomenon from the years before Allendes victorious campaign to the brutal U.S.-backed military coup on September 11, 1973, which ousted his presidency and imposed the dictatorship of General Augusto Pinochet. The bloody repression that followed would claim the life of Vctor Jara, a key singer-songwriter, but could never put to rest the lasting power of his songs nor the movement he personified. Gabriel San Romn is a journalist whose work has appeared in numerous outlets, including Truthout and Z Magazine. He lives in Anaheim, California. T. M. Scruggs was the sole ethnomusicologist at the University of Iowa. He lives in Berkeley, California.
