Key Selling Points • Provides a fascinating insider's view of the way everyday science is acually done • Features intriguing case histories of how individual scientists rely on failure to direct their research • A must­read for anyone curious about science Summary The general public has a glorified view of the pursuit of scientific research. However, the idealized perception of science as a rule­based, methodical system for accumulating facts could not be further from the truth. Modern science involves the idiosyncratic, often bumbling search for understanding in uncharted territories, full of wrong turns, false findings, and the occasional remarkable success.

In his sequel to Ignorance (Oxford University Press, 2012), Stuart Firestein shows us that the scientific enterprise is riddled with mistakes and errors ­ and that this is a thing! Failure: Why Science Is So Successful delves into the origins of scientific research as a process that relies upon trial and error, one which inevitably results in a hefty dose Oxford University Press of failure. In fact, scientists throughout history have relied on failure to guide their 9780199390106 019939010X research, viewing mistakes as a necessary part of the process.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Soda Politics Taking on Big Soda (and Winning) Marion Nestle, Mark Bittman, Neal Baer

Key Selling Points • Answers the question, how did what is essentially flavored sugar­water come to mean so much and to have such devastating and food policy consequences? • The first book to focus on the history, politics, nutrition, and health of soda, integrating public health science with historical and cultural research • Helps readers understand how we created this food system, what its problems are, and what we can do to change things • Written by the incomparable Marion Nestle, founder of the food studies program at NYU, and major public health and food choice advocate • Well illustrated, with ~70 figures and ~60 tables • Foreword by Mark Bittman, food journalist and columnist for The New York Times • Afterword by Neal Baer, pediatrician and television writer and producer Summary Sodas are astonishing products. Little more than flavored sugar­water, these drinks cost practically nothing to produce or buy, yet have turned their makers­­principally Coca­Cola and PepsiCo­­into a multibillion­dollar industry with global recognition, Oxford University Press distribution, and political power. Billed as "refreshing," "tasty," "crisp," and "the real 9780190263430 thing," sodas also happen to be so well established to contribute to poor dental 0190263431 Pub Date: 10/9/2015 hygiene, higher calorie intake, obesity, and type­2 diabetes that the first line of defense $29.95/$35.95 Can. against any of these conditions is to simply stop drinking them. Habitually drinking large Discount Code: 02 volumes of soda not only harms individual health, but also burdens societies with Hardcover runaway healthcare costs. 528 Pages 130 illustrations So how did products containing absurdly inexpensive ingredients become multibillion Medical / Public Health dollar industries and international brand icons, while also having a devastating impact on MED078000 public health? 6.1 in | 9.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED In Soda Politics, Dr. Marion Nestle answers this question by detailing all of the ways that the soft drink industry works overtime to make drinking soda as common and accepted as drinking water, for adults and children. Dr. Nestle, a renowned food and nutrition policy expert and public health advocate, shows how sodas are principally miracles of advertising; Coca­Cola and PepsiCo spend billions of dollars each year to promote their sale to children, minorities, and low­income populations, in developing as well as industrialized nations. And once they have stimulated that demand, they leave no stone unturned to protect profits. That includes lobbying to prevent any measures that would discourage soda sales, strategically donating money to health organizations and researchers who can make the science about sodas appear confusing, and engaging in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities to create goodwill and silence critics. Soda Politics follows the money trail wherever it leads, revealing how hard Big Soda works to sell as much of their products as possible to an increasingly obese world.

But Soda Politics does more than just diagnose a problem­­it encourages readers to help find solutions. From Berkeley to Mexico City and beyond, advocates are successfully countering the relentless marketing, promotion, and political protection of sugary drinks. And their actions are having an impact ­ for all of the hardball and softball tactics the soft drink industry employs to maintain the status quo, soda consumption has been flat or falling for years. Health advocacy campaigns are now the single greatest threat to soda companies' profits. Soda Politics provides readers with the tools they need to keep up pressure on Big Soda in order to build healthier and more sustainable food systems. Contributor Bio

"The soda industry is a powerful economic operator. Economic power readily translates into political power. Soda Politics is exactly the kind of carefully­researched investigative reporting needed to open the eyes of the public and parliamentarians to the health hazards of what is, as the author rightly notes, essentially liquid candy in a bottle." ­­Dr. Margaret Chan, Director­General, World Health Organization "No book in history has so completely laid bare the soda scourge that touches every corner of the world. Marion Nestle shows how this happened, its impact on human health and well­being, who the players are, and, most importantly, what might be done. This is the right book at the right time." ­­Dr. Kelly Brownell, Dean, Sanford School of Public Policy, Duke University "Marion Nestle is one of the greatest muckrakers of our time, and what she does is vitally important­for our health, our environment, and for future generations. Here, she wages war against the soda titans with such piercing clarity and so many irrefutable truths that all other arguments crumble." ­­Alice Waters, Founder and Proprietor of Chez Panisse "Comprehensive and well­written, this book will help frame a thoughtful public policy debate about nutrition and the societal impacts and costs of obesity." ­­Ann M. Veneman, Former US Secretary of Agriculture and Former Executive Director of UNICEF "What happens when the food industry's most insightful critic turns her sights on soda? This razor­sharp, fun to read, plan­of­battle for one of the greatest public health fights of our time. Big soda may have all the money, but those who would enter this fray, as we all should, now have their champion." ­­Michael Moss, Author of Salt Sugar Fat: How the Food Giants Hooked Us

"For decades, soda companies have amassed fortunes off drinks that are making us sick. It took someone like Marion Nestle to cut through the spin and uncover the high cost of cheap sodas." ­­Robert Kenner, Director/Producer, Food Inc. and Merchants of Doubt "An outstanding manual for health educators, activists, and anyone seeking information about the soda industry and its impact on health." ­ Library Journal

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Agents of Empire Knights, Corsairs, Jesuits and Spies in the Sixteenth­Century Mediterranean World Noel Malcolm

Key Selling Points • The first account of the life and family of Antonio Bruni • Examines a family that was closely intertwined with some of the major events of sixteenth­century European history, especially regarding Christian and Ottoman relations • Draws attention to the Albanian strand that runs through sixteenth­century European history • A cross between Stephen Greenblatt's The Swerve and David Abulafia's The Great Sea Summary In the late sixteenth century, a prominent Albanian named Antonio Bruni composed a revealing document about his home country. Historian Sir Noel Malcolm takes this document as a point of departure to explore the lives of the entire Bruni family, whose members included an archbishop of the Balkans, the captain of the papal flagship at the Battle of Lepanto­­at which the Ottomans were turned back in the Eastern Mediterranean­­in 1571, and a highly placed interpreter in Istanbul, formerly Constantinople, the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire that fell to the Turks in 1453. Oxford University Press The taking of Constantinople had profoundly altered the map of the Mediterranean. By 9780190262785 0190262788 the time of Bruni's document, Albania, largely a Venetian province from 1405 onward, Pub Date: 9/3/2015 had been absorbed into the Ottoman Empire.

Noel Malcolm is a Senior Research Fellow at All Souls College, Oxford. Quotes

"A book that will serve as an antidote to all crude nationalism, and to many historical stereotypes. It brings the reader back to an era long before the nation­state, when personal loyalties and religious coalitions were perpetually shifting." ­The Economist "Noel Malcolm's magnificent Agents of Empire uses the intertwined stories of two Albanian families ­ the Brunis and the Brutis ­ as a prism through which to view the contacts and the conflicts that made the early modern Mediterranean...It is impossible to read Malcolm's account without a sense of its resonances for today." ­The Guardian "There are very few scholars with Malcolm's linguistic skills and historical vision, which is one of the many reasons Agents of Empire is such an important book." ­The Telegraph "Agents of Empire is both a work of impeccable and original scholarship and a splendidly readable account of a critical moment in the history of both Eastern and Western Europe, and both Christendom and Islam." ­David Abulafia, The Times Literary Supplement Marketing Plans • Print Advertising • Online Advertising • National Media Campaign targeting print, online, radio, and television coverage • Social Media Outreach • Online Promotion • Email Campaign • Social Media Campaign Table Of Contents

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog The Sceptical Optimist Why Technology Isn't the Answer to Everything Nicholas

Key Selling Points • Explores the ethical and philosophical issues that arise in connection with new technology • Challenges the view that progress in technology automatically results in increased well­being • Presents an alternative ­ more realistic ­ model of the impact • Includes recent psychological studies on the nature and human perception of well­ being Summary The rapid developments in technologies ­­ especially computing and the advent of many 'smart' devices, as well as rapid and perpetual communication via the Internet ­­ has led to a frequently voiced view which Nicholas Agar describes as 'radical optimism'. Radical optimists claim that accelerating technical progress will soon end poverty, disease, and ignorance, and improve our and well­being. Agar disputes the claim that technological progress will automatically produce great improvements in subjective well­ being. He argues that radical optimism 'assigns to technological progress an undeserved Oxford University Press pre­eminence among all the goals pursued by our civilization'. 9780198717058 0198717059 Instead, Agar uses the most recent psychological studies about human perceptions of Pub Date: 9/1/2015 well­being to create a realistic model of the impact technology will have. Although he $29.95 accepts that technological advance does produce benefits, he insists that these are Discount Code: 1A Hardcover significantly less than those proposed by the radical optimists, and aspects of such progress can also pose a threat to values such as social justice and our relationship 256 Pages with nature, while problems such as poverty cannot be understood in technological Science SCI000000 terms. He concludes by arguing that a more realistic assessment of the benefits that technological advance can bring will allow us to better manage its risks in future. 8.6 in W | 5.6 in H | 0.9 in T Status:UNSPECIFIED Contributor Bio

Key Selling Points • Provides an extensive yet accessible guide to many ancient texts • Includes artwork as well as historical writings to illuminate religious interpreters' genius and impact • Explores the historical contexts of the divides between Jews, Christians, and Muslims Summary , , and Islam are considered kindred religions­holding ancestral heritages and monotheistic belief in common­but there are definitive distinctions between these "Abrahamic" peoples. Shared Stories, Rival Tellings explores the early exchanges of Jews, Christians, and Muslims, and argues that their interactions were dominated by debates over the meanings of certain stories sacred to all three communities.

Robert C. Gregg shows how Jewish, Christian, and Muslim interpreters­­artists as well as authors­­developed their unique and particular understandings of narratives present in the two Bibles and the Qur'an. Gregg focuses on five stories: Cain and Abel, Sarah and Oxford University Press Hagar, Joseph and Potiphar's Wife, Jonah and the Whale, and the Mother of Jesus. 9780190231491 0190231491 As he guides us through the often intentional variations introduced into these shared Pub Date: 9/3/2015 stories, Gregg exposes major issues under contention and the social­intellectual forces $39.95 that contributed to spirited, and sometimes combative, exchanges among Jews, Discount Code: 1A Christians, and Muslims.

Robert C. Gregg is Professor in Religious Studies, Emeritus, at Stanford University. His publications are historical studies of belief systems, with special attention to the competition of religions in the late Roman­early medieval Mediterranean and Levant. Quotes

"Jews, Christians, Muslims­­all have sacred stories. Some overlap, some also compete. No one has ever attempted to engage five of these Abrahamic sagas with equal seriousness and unflinching honesty. Combining art with narrative analysis, Bob Gregg has not only scaled the mountain, he has provided us a vista of the other side: a luxuriant tableau of piety and performance, at once animating, unsettling and delighting all who worship, or want to espy others who worship, the God of Abraham. A triumph, a masterpiece, a classic." ­­Bruce B. Lawrence, author of Who is Allah? (2015)

"Tragically, religious conflict is alive and well in the twenty­first century. This is what makes Shared Stories, Rival Tellings such a timely and inspiring work of scholarship, a study that shows the interconnections among Jewish, Christian, and Muslim scriptural interpretation. There are other helpful introductions to early Jewish and Christian biblical interpretation, but this volume makes its mark by enfolding Islam within its story and­­in a move that makes this work even more of a gem­­by drawing on art history as well as on texts. This work, dare I say it, is the opposite of religious extremism in its openness and ability to engage multiple perspectives." ­­Steve Weitzman, Herbert D. Katz Center for Advanced Judaic Studies, University of Pennsylvania

"Robert Gregg brilliantly interweaves versions of Bible stories as Jews, Christians, and Muslims variously tell them­­complementing, challenging, or clashing with one another­­ in a book that's fascinating and enormously informative about relationships within this diverse, often contentious, family of traditions." ­­Elaine Pagels, Harrington Spear Paine Foundation Professor of Religion,

Key Selling Points • Makes the highly provocative argument that western imperialism did not end with the close of colonialism, but continues to define international relations today • An accessible introduction to the concept • Weaves in lively and engaging narrative to show the long historical roots of present day imperialism Summary After a long hiatus, when it was seemingly banished to the wilderness of esoteric academic debate, imperialism is back as one of the buzzwords of the day. In the past decade many have invoked it as an old specter only to nervously deny its contemporary applicability. A smaller, but highly significant minority has embraced it as a positive good ­ the only way out of the contemporary political impasse. Meanwhile, the term has continued to be applied to the most diverse range of economic, political, cultural and linguistic phenomena, as well as historical scope. From the Persian Empire of antiquity to contemporary American military operations in the Middle East; from China's ongoing economic penetration of Africa to the old Soviet domination of Eastern Europe, passing through every real or perceived form of "hierarchy" and "privilege", imperialism is now Oxford University Press 9780199397891 invoked with great frequency and even greater imprecision. 0199397899 Pub Date: 9/1/2015 Imperialism Past and Present clarifies the prevailing confusion and provides a concise $24.95 historical account of imperialism, explaining when and how it emerged and its relation to Discount Code: 1A the colonialism and empires of the past. Should any sort of predatory foreign policy be Hardcover regarded as imperialist? Does the seemingly universal concern for "humanitarianism" and 272 Pages human rights rule out the applicability of imperialism to contemporary politics? The book Political Science / Imperialism examines important theoretical debates about the origins and nature of imperialism, as POL047000 well as the most significant and dramatic episodes in its actual history ­ from the 1884 8.4 in W | 5.8 in H | 1.1 in T Berlin Conference, through two World Wars, decolonization, and the end of the Cold Status:UNSPECIFIED War. As Emanuele Saccarelli and Latha Varadarajan argue in this provocative book, imperialism is hardly a political artifact. Rather it remains the mainspring of global instability and conflict today. Contributor Bio

Emanuele Saccarelli and Latha Varadarajan are both Associate of Political Science at San Diego State University. Quotes

"How did imperialism become such a decisive factor in modern history? This insightful book uses both history and economics to address that great question. Ranging from Joseph Conrad and Adam Smith to Rwanda and the Arab Spring, it sheds new light on a force that continues to shape the world." ­Stephen Kinzer, author of The Brothers and All the Shaw's Men

"Imperialism Past and Present is essential reading for anyone interested in current events. A lucid book that returns a central category ­ imperialism ­ to our conversation about what otherwise appears to be random disasters in remote places." ­Vijay Prashad, author of The Darker Nations: A People's History of the Third World

"This superbly written, researched and argued book enables us to understand contemporary international relations through the lens of historical continuities. All students and scholars of these issues will benefit from reading it." ­Pádraig Carmody, author of The New Scramble for Africa "A wonderfully frank, lucid and irreverent primer. Sweeping with historical command from Thucydides through King Leopold to Dien Bien Phu, it is uniquely powerful when demonstrating why recent U.S. and European adventures ­ the bombing of Serbia, the invasion of Libya, the Rwandan genocide ­ should be grouped with the classical imperialisms of old. Sharp, feisty, and, in spite of everything, filled with hope." ­Timothy Brennan, author of Wars of Position: The Cultural Politics of Left and Right "The concept of imperialism in international relations has fallen from academic fashion, but the practice of imperialism has continued uninterrupted. The post­2001 War on Terror has ushered in a whole new era of global interventions. Imperialism Past and Present does an excellent job of linking up present­day imperialism with earlier historical experiences, showing a broad continuity of imperial practices over long periods of time. This is a welcome addition to the international relations literature, bound to trigger much needed debate." ­David Gibbs, author of First Do No Harm: Humanitarian Intervention and the Destruction of Yugoslavia Marketing Plans • Print Advertising • Online Advertising • Online Promotion • Email Campaign • Content Marketing Table Of Contents

Key Selling Points • The definitive guide for Parkinson's Disease patients and their families • Offers a crystal­clear, nuts­and­bolts approach to the treatment of PD • Distilled from the author's nearly thirty years of experience as a clinician and researcher • Educates patients so that they can better team up with their doctors to do battle with the disease, streamlining the decision­making process and enhancing their treatment Summary The fundamental guide to the most effective treatments for Parkinson's Disease, from a Mayo Clinic doctor with thirty years of clinical and research experience.

In this second edition follow­up to the extremely successful first edition, Dr. Ahlskog draws on thirty years of clinical experience to present the definitive guide to dealing with all aspects of Parkinson's Disease, from treatment options and side effects to the impact of the disease on caregivers and family. Dr. Ahlskog's goal is to educate patients Oxford University Press so that they can better team up with their doctors to do battle with the disease, 9780190231866 0190231866 streamlining the decision­making process and enhancing their treatment. To do this, Dr. Pub Date: 9/1/2015 Ahlskog offers a gold mine of information, distilled from more than 30 years of experience $34.95 treating people with Parkinson's at the Mayo Clinic.

J. Eric Ahlskog, PhD, MD, is Professor of Neurology at the Mayo Medical School, and Chair of the Mayo Section of Movement Disorders, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota. Widely considered to be a leading authority on this disorder, he has more than 30 years of experience treating people with Parkinson's Disease, both in the clinic as a full­time, patient­seeing neurologist, and as a clinical­investigator responsible for PD treatment protocols. Quotes

"Eric Ahlskog of the Mayo Clinic is one of the country's leading experts in Parkinson's disease. His The Parkinson's Disease Treatment Book is comprehensive and informative and will be a welcome addition to the library of patients with Parkinson's disease and their caregivers." ­­Nathan Slewett, Chaiman Emeritus, National Parkinson Foundation

"Dr. Ahlskog writes with true authority based on his strong scientific background, vast clinical experience, and ability to synthesize laboratory science and clinical acumen in a manner digestible and useful for the non­physician. 'Be a partner, not a patient' is an admonition that is particularly constructive in optimizing the interactions between patients with Parkinson's disease and their caregivers. In order to be an effective partner, it is essential that patients and their caregivers develop a basic, core understanding of the diagnosis, treatment, course, and likely complications of the disease. A careful reading of The Parkinson's Disease Treatment Book is a substantial first step for patients in assuming full partnership."­­G. Frederick Wooten, M.D., Chairman of the Scientific Advisory Board, American Parkinson Disease Association

"Dr. Ahlskog, one of the top specialists in Parkinson's disease, has put down in this wonderful book up­to­date information on all aspects of Parkinson's disease as well as his extensive experience and wisdom gained by caring for, and especially caring about, people with Parkinson's disease for over two decades. It is filled with practical information and written in a style that is sophisticated enough to be useful but at the same time easily understandable by people with Parkinson's disease, their friends, and their families. As information is one of the most potent therapies for people dealing with Parkinson's disease, this book represents a major treatment breakthrough."­­Stephen G. Reich, M.D., Associate Professor, Department of Neurology, The University of Maryland School of Medicine

"Dr. Ahlskog has provided a remarkably readable and immensely useful book on the treatment of Parkinson's disease, addressed to patients and their caregivers. He lays out a wise approach to this complex and multifaceted disease which comes from many years of his own personal experience. What shines through is his very special sensitivity to his patients and a lucid understanding of their needs. All aspects of the disease are covered.... Special attention is paid to the many non­motor problems that are all too often neglected in the treatment of patients such as anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, sexuality issues, and problems with bladder, bowel, and blood pressure regulation. Most importantly, many of the myths and ill­conceived notions surrounding the treatment of Parkinson's disease are met head on and convincingly dispelled."­­ Daniel Tarsy, M.D., Chief, Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders Center, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center

"Dr. Ahlskog has again produced a uniquely informative, focused, and readable treatise on Parkinson's disease. Unlike many other guides for Parkinson's patients, this one doesn't attempt to present the entire confusing universe of disparate management options, but rather presents the well­informed opinions of a single seasoned and highly respected practitioner. Virtually every rational question that a patient might pose is addressed here using scientifically correct, but eminently understandable language. Parkinson's disease patients, their care­givers, and their physicians will all benefit from this treasure trove of clinical wisdom." ­Robert Rodnitzky, MD, Director of the Division of Movement Disorders, University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine "Dr. Eric Ahlskog from the Mayo Clinic is the leading authority on Parkinson's disease. With over thirty years of experience treating Parkinson's disease patients, Dr. Ahlskog shares his expertise on treating all of the possible symptoms that a patient may encounter in the different stages of PD. His advice is direct and understandable. Patients and caregivers will turn to this book again and again over the years to answer their questions and use the information to better partner with their healthcare providers in achieving the best possible outcome. I will recommend this book to all of my patients as the main source for learning about the disease and the available treatment options." ­Kevin J. Klos, MD, Movement Disorder Clinic of Oklahoma "Hundreds of questions will arise during the course of Parkinson's disease regarding diagnosis, symptoms, and treatment options. Dr. Ahlskog draws on his decades of neurological practice to lay out information that answers just about all of these questions. Information is power, and the well­informed patient is in the best position to navigate this condition. The book can be read cover to cover, or the reader can turn to the topic of interest and find explanations delivered in a conversational style. Many of my patients use the first edition as a guide, and are eagerly awaiting this updated version." ­Padraig O'Suilleabhain, MD, Associate Professor of Neurology and Neurotherapeutics, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center "Dr. Ahlskog has written a go­to text: straight forward, down­to­, and eminently readable. With his PhD focused on pharmacology, and his many years of research and clinical experience as a neurologist and a director of the Mayo Clinic's PD program, there is no one I more than Eric. Unlike others in the field, he has never compromised himself to the fashion of the day. I recommend this book wholeheartedly to professionals, patients, and their families." ­Bradley C.

Many Turks soon re­awakened to their Armenian heritage, reflecting on how their grandparents were forcibly Islamised and Turkified, and the their families endured to keep their stories secret. There was public debate around Armenian property confiscated by the Turkish state and the extermination of the minorities. At last the silence had been broken.

Oxford University Press Open Wounds explains how, after the First World War, the new Turkish Republic forcibly 9780190263508 0190263504 erased the memory of the atrocities, and traces of Armenians, from their historic lands ­ Pub Date: 10/16/2015 ­ a process to which the international community turned a blind eye.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog One Islam, Many Muslim Worlds Spirituality, Identity, and Resistance across Islamic Lands Raymond William Baker

Key Selling Points • Focuses on the lived faith of the world's 1.4 billion Muslims • Builds on the work of Islamic historians and intellectuals who characteristically emphasize the underlying unities of a common historical experience • Aims to generate sympathetic understandings between both Western and Islamic actors in the conflict Summary By all measures, the late twentieth century was a time of dramatic decline for the Islamic world, the Ummah, particularly its Arab heartland. Sober Muslim voices regularly describe their current state as the worst in the 1,400­year history of Islam. Yet, precisely at this time of unprecedented material vulnerability, Islam has emerged as a civilizational force strong enough to challenge the imposition of Western, particularly American, homogenizing power on Muslim peoples. This is the central paradox of Islam today: at a time of such unprecedented weakness in one sense, how has the Islamic Awakening, a broad and diverse movement of contemporary Islamic renewal, emerged as such a resilient and powerful transnational force and what implications does it have for Oxford University Press the West?

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Picturing the Apocalypse The Book of Revelation in the Arts over Two Millennia Natasha O'Hear, Anthony O'Hear

Key Selling Points • A reader­friendly explanation of Revelation and its key themes • Includes 120 illustrations, from all different periods and genres, giving insight into the many different ways this text has stimulated and provoked artistic responses over the ages • Unique format whereby Revelation has been divided into ten well­known themes • Each themed­chapter is built around copious relevant and illuminating illustrations of the theme in question ranging from the twelfth to the twenty­first century • Two 16 page color sections • Shows the different meanings and significance the themes of the Book of Revelation have had for believers ­ and non­believers ­ through the ages • Glossary of theological and art historical terms Summary The book of Revelation has been a source of continual fascination for nearly two thousand years. Concepts such as the Lamb of God, the Four Horsemen, the Seventh Seal, the Beasts and Antichrist, the Whore of Babylon, Armageddon, the Millennium, the Oxford University Press Last Judgement, the New Jerusalem, and the ubiquitous angels of the Apocalypse have 9780199689019 0199689016 captured the popular imagination. One can hardly open a newspaper or click on a news Pub Date: 9/1/2015 site without reading about impending financial or climate­change Armageddon, while the $34.95 concept of the Four Horsemen pervades popular music, gaming, and satire. Yet few Discount Code: 1A people know much about either the basic meaning or original context of these concepts Hardcover or the multiplicity of different ways in which they have been interpreted by visual artists 320 Pages in particular. The visual history of this most widely illustrated of all the biblical books 120 illus.; two 16­page color deserves greater attention. sections Religion / Biblical Criticism & Interpretation This book fills these gaps in a striking and original way by means of ten concise REL006100 thematic chapters which explain the origins of these concepts from the book of 9.3 in W | 6.3 in H | 1.4 in T Revelation in an accessible way. These explanations are augmented and developed via a Status:UNSPECIFIED carefully selected sample of the ways in which the concepts have been treated by artists through the centuries. The 120 visual examples are drawn from a wide range of time periods and media including the ninth­century Trier Apocalypse, thirteenth­century Anglo­Norman Apocalypse Manuscripts such as the Lambeth and Trinity Apocalypses, the fourteenth­century Angers Apocalypse Tapestry, fifteenth­century Apocalypse altarpieces by Van Eyck and Memling, Dürer and Cranach's sixteenth­century Apocalypse woodcuts, and more recently a range of works by William Blake, J.M.W. Turner, Max Beckmann, as well as film posters and film stills, cartoons, and children's book illustrations. The final chapter demonstrates the continuing resonance of all the themes in contemporary religious, political, and popular thinking, while throughout the book a contrast will be drawn between those readers of Revelation who have seen it in terms of earthly revolutions in the here and now, and those who have adopted a more spiritual, other­worldly approach.

Key Selling Points • A thorough yet accessible introduction to the genre • Offers explorations of five of the most enduring and often­performed Italian operas • Includes synopses, cast lists, and suggested further reading for each opera discussed Summary Opera is often regarded as the pinnacle of high art. A "Western" genre with global reach, it is where music and drama come together in unique ways, supported by stellar singers and spectacular scenic effects. Yet it is also patently absurd ­­ why should anyone break into song on the dramatic stage? ­­ and shrouded in mystique. In this engaging and entertaining guide, renowned music scholar Tim Carter unravels its many layers to offer a thorough introduction to Italian opera from the seventeenth to the early twentieth centuries.

Eschewing the technical musical detail that all too often dominates writing on opera, Carter begins instead where the composers themselves did: with the text. Walking readers through the relationship between music and poetry that lies at the heart of any opera, Carter then offers explorations of five of the most enduring and emblematic Oxford University Press Italian operas: Monteverdi's The Coronation of Poppea; Handel's Julius Caesar in Egypt; 9780190247942 0190247940 Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro; Verdi's Rigoletto; and Puccini's La Bohème.

Shaped initially by the imperatives of war­time, and the needs of the grief­stricken and the bereft, the memory of Gallipoli has been re­made time and again over the last century. For the Turks an inspirational victory, for many on the Allied side a glorious and romantic defeat, for others still an episode best forgotten, 'Gallipoli' has meant different things to different people, serving by turns as an occasion of sincere and heartfelt sorrow, an opportunity for separatist and feminist protest, and a formative influence in the forging of national identities.

What is it about soaring through the air held up by the power of one's own body that has captivated humans for so long? David Alexander examines the evolution of flight in the only four animals to have evolved this ability: insects, pterosaurs, birds, and bats. With an accessible writing style grounded in rigorous research, Alexander breaks new ground in a field that has previously been confined to specialists. While birds have received the majority of attention from flight researchers, Alexander pays equal attention to all four groups of flyers­something that no other book on the subject has done before now. In a streamlined and captivating way, David Alexander demonstrates the links between the tiny 2­mm thrip and the Oxford University Press enormous albatross with the 12 feet wingspan used to cross oceans. 9780199996773 0199996776 Pub Date: 10/1/2015 The book delves into the fossil record of flyers enough to satisfy the budding $29.95 paleontologist, while also pleasing ornithologists and entomologists alike with its Discount Code: 1A treatment of animal behavior, flapping mechanisms, and wing­origin theory. Alexander Hardcover uses relatable examples to draw in readers even without a natural interest in birds, 224 Pages bees, and bats. He takes something that is so off­limits and unfamiliar to humans­the 41 line art, 2 halftones act of flying­and puts it in the context of experiences that many readers can relate to. Science / Life Sciences SCI027000 Alexander guides readers through the anomalies of the flying world: hovering hummingbirds, unexpected gliders (squirrels, for instance), and the flyers that went 6.1 in | 9.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED extinct (pterosaurs). Alexander also delves into wing­origin theory and explores whether birds entered the skies from the trees down (as gliders) or from the ground up (as runners) and uses the latest fossil evidence to present readers with an answer.

Key Selling Points • The first ever biography of Murray Bookchin, the founder of social ecology • Written by Bookchin's close collaborator and copy­editor, Janet Biehl • Combines a gripping personal tale with a discussion of today's most relevant environmental and social issues The compelling biography of revolutionary social ecologist Murray Bookchin Summary Murray Bookchin was not only one of the most significant and influential environmental philosophers of the twentieth century­­he was also one of the most prescient. From industrial agriculture to nuclear radiation, Bookchin has been at the forefront of every major ecological issue since the very beginning, often proposing a solution before most people even recognized there was a problem.

Ecology or Catastrophe: The Life of Murray Bookchin is the first biography of this groundbreaking environmental and political thinker. Author Janet Biehl worked as his collaborator and copyeditor for 19 years, editing his every word. Thanks to her Oxford University Press extensive personal history with Bookchin as well as her access to his papers and 9780199342488 0199342482 archival research, Ecology or Catastrophe offers unique insight into his personal and Pub Date: 10/1/2015 professional life. Founder of the social ecology movement, Bookchin first started raising $34.95/£22.99 UK environmental issues in 1952. He foresaw global warming in the 1960s and even then Discount Code: 1A argued that we should look into renewable energy sources as an alternative to fossil Hardcover fuels. Wary of pesticides and other chemicals used in industrial agriculture, he was also 344 Pages an early advocate of small­scale organic farming, which has developed into the present 18 halftones locavore movement and the revival of organic markets. Even Occupy can trace the Science / Life Sciences origins of its leaderless structure and general assemblies to the nonhierarchical SCI020000 organizational form Bookchin developed as a libertarian socialist. 6.1 in | 9.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED Bookchin believed that social and ecological issues were deeply intertwined. Convinced that capitalism pushes businesses to maximize profits and ignore humanist concerns, he argued that eco­crises could be resolved by a new social arrangement. His solution was Communalism, a new form of libertarian socialism that he developed. An optimist and utopian, Bookchin believed in the potentiality for human beings to use reason to solve all social and ecological problems. Contributor Bio

Janet Biehl was Murray Bookchin's copyeditor for the last two decades of his professional life, and collaborated with him on both books and articles. She works as a freelance copyeditor for Viking Penguin, Alfred A. Knopf, Pantheon, Crown, Doubleday, and many other publishing houses. Quotes

"Biehl has an insider's view of Bookchin as both his collaborator and his lover, and she uses that insight to paint a detailed and lively picture of this important figure." ­­ Publishers Weekly "Janet Biehl's meticulously researched biography splendidly captures Bookchin's intellectual and personal journey from youthful communist to mature anarchist. Bookchin influenced the thinking and actions of a generation but today his writings and insights are largely unknown. Biehl's terrific book will do much to overcome this illiteracy and introduce a new generation to one of the key intellectuals of our time." ­­ David Morris, Director, Public Good Initiative, Institute for Local Self­Reliance "Murray Bookchin was irascible, human, brilliant, and above all relevant to our own time. This valuable book brings his work to life and takes us through his intellectual, activist and personal struggles between the late 1930s and the end of the 20th Century. An ecologist before the term was understood by most Americans and a sophisticated anarchist who recognized the importance of clear (but decentralized) organizational structure, Bookchin's story also offers a reminder of what it takes to live a committed life in our own time in history." ­­ Gar Alperovitz, Lionel R.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Failed What the "Experts" Got Wrong about the Global Economy Mark Weisbrot

Key Selling Points • Analyzes worldwide crises, from the US to the Eurozone, and even the prolonged stagnant periods experienced by middle­ and low­income countries • Proves the political agendas are often the root cause of financial crises and may­as in the case of the Eurozone­prolong crises unnecessarily • Examines why the IMF has lost influence in middle­income countries • Looks at the causes and consequences of Latin America's "second independence" and economic rebound in the 20th century, including important changes in economic policy by various governments Summary Why has the Eurozone ended up with an unemployment rate more than twice that of the United States more than six years after the collapse of Lehman Brothers? Why did the vast majority of low­ and middle­income countries suffer a prolonged economic slowdown in the last two decades of the 20th century? What was the role of the International Monetary Fund in these economic failures? Why was Latin America able to achieve substantial poverty reduction in the 21st century after more than two decades Oxford University Press 9780195170184 without any progress? 0195170180 Pub Date: 10/1/2015 Failed analyzes these questions, explaining why these important economic developments $24.95 of recent years have been widely misunderstood and in some cases almost completely Discount Code: 1A Hardcover ignored. First, in the Eurozone, Mark Weisbrot argues that the European authorities' political agenda, which included shrinking the welfare state, reducing health care, 312 Pages pension, and other social spending, and reducing the bargaining power of labor played a 12 line illus very important role in prolonging the Eurozone's financial crisis and pushing it into years Political Science / Public Policy POL024000 of recession and mass unemployment. This conclusion is based not only on public 5.5 in | 8.3 in statements of European officials, but also on thousands of pages of documentation from Status:UNSPECIFIED consultations between the IMF and European governments after 2008.

The second central theme of Failed is that there are always practical alternatives to prolonged economic failure. Drawing on the history of other financial crises, recessions, and recoveries, Weisbrot argues that regardless of initial conditions, there have been and remain economically feasible choices for governments of the Eurozone to greatly reduce unemployment­including the hardest hit, crisis­ridden country of Greece.

The long­term economic failure of developing countries, its social consequences, as well as the subsequent recovery in the first decade of the 21st century, constitute the third part of the book's narrative, one that has previously gotten too little attention. We see why the International Monetary Fund has lost influence in middle income countries. Failed also examines the economic causes and consequences of Latin America's "second independence" and rebound in the twenty­first century, as well as the challenges that lie ahead. Contributor Bio

Mark Weisbrot is Co­Director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research in Washington, D.C. He received his Ph.D. in economics from the University of Michigan. He is co­author, with Dean Baker, of Social Security: The Phony Crisis, and has written numerous research papers on economic issues and policy. His columns, commentary, and op­eds have appeared in almost all major U.S. newspapers, and in many in other countries, and he appears frequently on national and international television and radio programs. He is also president of Just Foreign Policy. Quotes

"For those who wish to understand the global economy of the past generation, the shocking failures and impressive successes, this is the book to read. With careful scholarship and lucid analysis, Weisbrot reveals the pernicious effects of the neoliberal assault on the world's population, from wealthy and developed Europe to the global south, and exposes the dominant political­economic doctrines, rooted in a harsh attack on democracy and undermining of social policies that benefit the vast majority. He also shows how rejection of these doctrines has led to impressive achievements. All of this is consistent with actual economic history, if not prevailing illusion. The critique is harsh and incisive, but prospects are bright if the lessons of history and the logic of policy are viewed with care, as in this timely, authoritative, and very valuable study."

­­Noam Chomsky, Institute Professor and Professor of Linguistics (Emeritus), MIT "Mark Weisbrot demolishes the illusions of Europe and the IMF ­­ but also shows, by way of contrast, how it was that Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, and Ecuador have brewed success from rebellion against the neoliberal project."

­­James K. Galbraith, author of The End of Normal: The Great Crisis and the Future of Growth and Lloyd M. Bentsen Jr. Chair in Government/Business Relations at University of Texas­Austin "Mark Weisbrot's new book Failed describes in compelling detail the destructive diagnoses and economic prescriptions that the International Monetary Fund, the European Union, and the U.S. Treasury department have tried to spread through the developed and the developing world. He provides a fascinating tour­ that all students of macroeconomics and economic development should read­ of the destruction wrought by these 'economic experts' preaching financial liberalization, privatization, and austerity: from Spain to Greece and Argentina to Indonesia. As Weisbrot shows, in recent years, other economists, policy makers, and governments have shown alternative paths to development that avoid these costly ideas. He concludes by arguing that: 'The ideas that facilitated that regrettable failure remain influential, but these, too, will become increasingly less relevant in time.' If this prediction turns out to be true, it will be partly due to the excellent work that Mark Weisbrot has contributed over many years ­­ well reflected in these pages ­­ to show the dismal failures of these ideas and to help develop more just and inclusive economic paths for countries to follow."

­­Gerald Epstein, Professor of Economics and Co­Director, Political Economy Research Institute (PERI), University of Massachusetts­Amherst "The International Monetary Fund, the European Central Bank, and neoliberal economics may have failed, but Mark Weisbrot has not. His demolition job on the economic policies that have led to misery for millions is comprehensive, long overdue and a resounding success."

­­Larry Elliott, Economics Editor, The Guardian "As the author describes it in the introduction, this is a book about failed economic policies ­­ those of the Eurozone since 2008 and the failure of market reforms to reignite growth in low ­­ and middle­income countries in the last two decades of the twentieth century. But it is also a book about development successes ­­ and thus of alternatives to those failures ­­ notably that of China's state­led insertion into , and Latin America with its several left­wing regimes over the past decade. It is a very important contribution to global debates by one of market (neoliberal) reforms' leading critics. It should be on the shelves of both defenders and critics of market reforms."

­­José Antonio Ocampo, Professor at Columbia University and former UN Under­ Secretary­General for Economic and Social Affairs "There are two types of economic history books: those that start with an ideological position and select facts as they please, and another that actually discusses what happened and why. Mark Weisbrot's newest book belongs to the second category. It takes you on a journey to the places and crises that, according to the neoliberal narrative, should have never happened ­­ the Asian financial meltdown, the Argentine depression and recovery, the interminable European austerity ­­ and for good measure adds a discussion of the most successful economy of the last 40 years, China, which stands out among the rest with its pragmatic and unusual economic policy mix. There are here lessons to be learned for the rich, emerging, and poor economies alike."

­­Branko Milanovic, Luxembourg Income Study Center and Graduate Center, City University of New York and author of The Haves and the Have­Nots: A Brief and Idiosyncratic History of Global Inequality "Weisbrot's book shatters conventional wisdoms about the meaning of the Eurozone crisis. In clear, accessible language, it advances a desperately­needed alternative interpretation of the contemporary global economy."

­­Sarah Babb, Professor of Sociology, Boston College

"Mark Weisbrot is among that very small group of economists whose theorizing about the world actually matches the truth of the world. His new book, Failed, is an indispensable analysis of prevailing misconceptions, of the type once described by the great sociologist C. Wright Mills as 'crackpot realism,' a delusional 'style of mind' that 'justifies its false and feeble views as reality itself.' It is required reading for anyone seeking to explain contemporary global politics."

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Part of Our Lives A People's History of the American Public Library Wayne A. Wiegand

Key Selling Points • Challenges conventional thinking and top­down definitions, instead drawing on the library user's perspective to argue that the public library's most important function is providing commonplace reading materials and public space • Challenges a professional ethos about public libraries and their responsibilities to fight censorship and defend intellectual freedom • Demonstrates that the American public library has been (with some notable exceptions) a place that welcomed newcomers, accepted diversity, and constructed community since the end of the 19th century • Shows how stories that cultural authorities have traditionally disparaged ­­ i.e. books that are not "serious" ­­ have often been transformative for public library users Summary Despite dire predictions in the late twentieth century that public libraries would not survive the turn of the millennium, their numbers have only increased. Two of three Americans frequent a public library at least once a year, and nearly that many are registered borrowers. Although library authorities have argued that the public library Oxford University Press functions primarily as a civic institution necessary for maintaining democracy, 9780190248000 0190248009 generations of library patrons tell a different story. Pub Date: 10/1/2015 $34.95 In Part of Our Lives, Wayne A. Wiegand delves into the heart of why Americans love Discount Code: 1A their libraries. The book traces the history of the public library, featuring records and Hardcover testimonies from as early as 1850. Rather than analyzing the words of library founders 344 Pages and managers, Wiegand listens to the voices of everyday patrons who cherished 20 illus. libraries. Drawing on newspaper articles, memoirs, and biographies, Part of Our Lives History / United States paints a clear and engaging picture of Americans who libraries not only as civic HIS036000 institutions, but also as social spaces for promoting and maintaining community. 6.1 in | 9.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED Whether as a public space, a place for accessing information, or a home for reading material that helps patrons make sense of the world around them, the public library has a rich history of meaning for millions of Americans. From colonial times through the recent technological revolution, libraries have continuously adapted to better serve the needs of their communities. Wiegand goes on to demonstrate that, although cultural authorities (including some librarians) have often disparaged reading books considered not "serious" the commonplace reading materials users obtained from public libraries have had a transformative effect for many, including people like Ronald Reagan, Sonia Sotomayor, and Oprah Winfrey.

A bold challenge to conventional thinking about the American public library, Part of Our Lives is an insightful look into one of America's most beloved cultural institutions Contributor Bio

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Inventing American Religion Polls, Surveys, and the Tenuous Quest for a Nation's Faith Robert Wuthnow

Key Selling Points • Challenges the results of famous polling firms • Profiles the two key originators of polls about religion • Author writes as both an insider and a critic Summary Today, a billion­dollar­a­year polling industry floods the media with information. Pollsters tell us not only which political candidates will win, but how we are practicing our faith. How many Americans went to church last week? Have they been born again? Is Jesus as popular as Harry Potter? Polls tell us that 40 percent of Americans attend religious services each week. They show that African Americans are no more religious than white Americans, and that Jews are abandoning their religion in record numbers. According to leading sociologist Robert Wuthnow, none of that is correct. Pollsters say that attendance at religious services has been constant for decades. But during that time response rates in polls have plummeted, robotic "push poll" calls have proliferated, and sampling has become more difficult. The accuracy of political polling can be known because elections actually happen. But there are no election results to show if the Oxford University Press proportion of people who say they pray every day or attend services every week is 9780190258900 correct. A large majority of the public doubts that polls can be trusted, and yet night 019025890X Pub Date: 10/1/2015 after night on TV, polls experts sum up the nation's habits to an eager audience of $29.95 millions.

Wuthnow contends that polls and surveys have Social Science / Sociology of shaped­and distorted­how religion is understood and portrayed in the media and also by Religion religious leaders, practitioners, and scholars. He calls for a robust public discussion SOC039000 about American religion that extends well beyond the information provided by polls and 6.1 in | 9.3 in surveys, and suggests practical steps to facilitate such a discussion, including changes Status:UNSPECIFIED in how the results of polls and surveys are presented. Contributor Bio

Robert Wuthnow is the Gerhard R. Andlinger '52 Professor of Sociology and Director of the Center for the Study of Religion at Princeton University. He is the author of numerous books on American culture and religion. Quotes

"Based on survey research, Robert Wuthnow has written some of the most widely read books about American religion. Here he turns a critical eye on surveys and polls. As only Wuthnow can, he shows that numbers cannot speak for themselves, that Americans have gone too far in letting surveys and polls define our faith experiences for us. Anyone who cares about how we count the past or future of American religion should read this book." ­­Elaine Howard Ecklund, Herbert S. Autrey Chair Professor of Sociology, Rice University

"Wuthnow's Inventing American Religion offers a remarkable portrait not just of the history of religious polls and surveys in the United States, but also how these methods of research have shaped ­ if not sometimes distorted ­ the development of religious categories. The book is packed full of insights about the role of polls and surveys in studying religion, at times attempting to capture new trends, and other times labeling those trends and offering new maps for portraying this ever­changing territory. A must read for scholars and journalists alike interested in American religion." ­­Wade Clark Roof, J.F. Rowny Professor of Religion and Society Emeritus and Research Professor

"Inventing American Religion is an important contribution to our expanding map of twentieth­century American culture and religious life, framing a way to understand how public understandings of 'American religion' were shaped and continue to be influenced by the rise of surveys and public polling. Wuthnow brings both a sociological insider's first­hand knowledge of the promises and problems of polling and survey techniques, and an historian's interest in the complexity of American religious life to this lively study. The result is a rich, rewarding, and thought­provoking book about the complex role that polling and surveys continue to play in shaping Americans' public understandings of what it means to be religious." ­­Courtney Bender, Professor of Religion, Columbia University

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog The James Bond Songs Pop Anthems of Late Capitalism Adrian Daub, Charles Kronengold

Key Selling Points • Shows how a listener can think with and about pop music • Illustrates how our conception of what a pop song is has changed over time • Tells the story of a cultural property caught between a fixed brand aesthetic and a pop­music landscape that won't stand still • Brief thematic chapters for the general reader rather than the cultural historian Summary Starting with 1964's Goldfinger, every James Bond film has followed the same ritual, and so has its audience: after an exciting action sequence the screen goes black and the viewer spends three long minutes absorbing abstract opening credits and a song that sounds like it wants to return to 1964. In The James Bond Songs authors Adrian Daub and Charles Kronengold use the genre to trace not only a changing cultural landscape, but also evolving conceptions of what a pop song is. They argue that the story of the Bond song is the story of the pop song more generally, and perhaps even the story of its end.

Oxford University Press Each chapter discusses a particular segment of the Bond canon and contextualizes it in 9780190234522 0190234520 its era's music and culture. But the book also asks how Bond and his music reflected and Pub Date: 10/1/2015 influenced our feelings about such topics as masculinity, race, money, and aging. $29.95 Through these individual pieces the book presents the Bond song as the perfect anthem Discount Code: 1A of late capitalism. The Bond songs want to talk about the fulfillment that comes from Hardcover fast cars, shaken Martinis and mindless sex, but their unstable speakers, subjects, and 256 Pages addressees actually undercut the logic of the lifestyle James Bond is sworn to defend. 30 illustrations The book is an invitation to think critically about pop music, about genre, and about the Music / History & Criticism MUS020000 political aspects of popular culture in the twentieth century and beyond. 6.5 in | 9.3 in Contributor Bio Status:UNSPECIFIED

Charles Kronengold is Assistant Professor of Music at Stanford University and author of a forthcoming book on musical genres of the 1970s. Quotes

"Critique of at its best: taking our pleasures at their most stupid and marginal, and discerning in them echoes of global social and ideological antagonisms. A must for all those who believe that we really live in post­ideological times!" ­­Slavoj Zizek "In prose that purrs like a Bond girl, Daub and Kronengold tell a remarkable story not just of these curious songs but of popular music since the early 1960s. A terrific history!" ­­ Alice Echols, Professor of History and Gender Studies, The University of Southern California

"This refreshingly unique study chronicles Bond songs as part of pop music and apart from it, within the Bond movies and apart from them, imagining hip futures while desperately holding onto anachronistic visions of empire." ­­Dana Polan, Cinema Studies, New York University "A book as sophisticated as a shaken martini, as clever as Q's gadgets, as zippy as an Aston Martin, as razor sharp as Goldfinger's laser, as gorgeous as Shirley Bassey's voice, and as enthralling as any Bond movie I've ever seen." ­­Alexander Rehding, Harvard University

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog In the Beginning Was the Word The Bible in American Public Life, 1492­1783 Mark A. Noll

Key Selling Points • The first part of a multi­volume set that will trace the history of the Bible in America up to the present day • The culmination of years' worth of scholarship by a world class historian of religion in America • Links history to Bible­related discourse in contemporary America Summary In the beginning of American history, the Word was in Spanish, Latin, and native languages like Nahuatal. But while Spanish and Catholic Christianity reached the New World in 1492, it was only with settlements in the seventeenth century that English­ language Bibles and Protestant Christendom arrived. The Puritans brought with them intense devotion to Scripture, as well as their of Christendom ­­ a civilization characterized by a thorough intermingling of the Bible with everything else. That ideal began this country's journey from the Puritan's City on a Hill to the Bible­quoting country the U.S. is today. In the Beginning Was the Word shows how important the Bible remained, even as that Puritan ideal changed considerably through the early Oxford University Press stages of American history. 9780190263980 0190263989 Pub Date: 10/7/2015 Author Mark Noll shows how seventeenth­century Americans received conflicting models $29.95/$32.95 Can. of scriptural authority from Europe: the Bible under Christendom (high Anglicanism), the Discount Code: 02 Bible over Christendom (moderate Puritanism), and the Bible against Christendom Hardcover (Anabaptists, enthusiasts, Quakers). In the eighteenth century, the colonists turned 448 Pages increasingly to the Bible against Christendom, a stance that fueled the Revolution 18 illustrations against Anglican Britain and prepared the way for a new country founded on the Religion / Theology REL102000 separation of church and state.

6.1 in | 9.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED One of the foremost scholars of American Christianity, Mark Noll brings a wealth of research and wisdom to In the Beginning Was the Word, providing a sweeping, engaging, and insightful survey of the relationship between the Bible and public issues from the beginning of European settlement. A seminal new work from a world­class scholar, this book offers a fresh account of the contested, sometimes ambiguous, but definite biblical roots of American history. Contributor Bio

Mark A. Noll is the Francis A. McAnaney Professor of History at the University of Notre Dame and author of numerous books, including America's God: From Jonathan Edwards to Abraham Lincoln (OUP 2002) and Protestantism: A Very Short Introduction (OUP 2011). Quotes

"A superb study of Early America's most widely read book by one of the nation's leading historians of religion. No one has ever before described and analyzed the role of the Bible in colonial America as thoroughly as Mark Noll has in this important book. In the Beginning Was the Word is a landmark work of history." ­­ Gordon S. Wood, Professor of History Emeritus, Brown University

"In the Beginning Was the Word documents the Bible's ubiquity in the nation's formative years. With massive research and lapidary prose, Noll shows how Scripture provided solace for individuals, authority for Protestants, and warrants for Christendom. Lest there be any doubt, the volume secures the author's rank as the dean of active American religious historians." ­­ Grant Wacker, Gilbert T. Rowe Professor of Christian History, Duke Divinity School

"Mark Noll has written a learned and wise treatment of the power of the Bible in early American history, sensitive to the ways Scripture was invoked on different sides of many disputes. Noll appropriately roots his account in the Old World background and restores the importance of Puritanism to the course of American History." ­­ Daniel Walker Howe, Pulitzer­Prize­winning author of What Hath God Wrought: The Transformation of America, 1815­1848

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog The Betrayal The 1919 World Series and the Birth of Modern Baseball Charles Fountain

Key Selling Points • An engaging narrative of baseball's eternal mystery, written for the general reader • The standard book on the subject is now 40 years old, and a retelling is needed • Based on new research into archives, newspapers, and transcripts • The author, a former journalist and sportscaster, is a recognized authority on baseball history Summary In the most famous scandal of sports history, eight Chicago White Sox players­­ including Shoeless Joe Jackson­­agreed to throw the 1919 World Series to the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for the promise of $20,000 each from gamblers reportedly working for New York mobster Arnold Rothstein. Heavily favored, Chicago lost the Series five games to three. Although rumors of a fix flew while the series was being played, they were largely disregarded by players and the public at large. It wasn't until a year later that a general investigation into baseball gambling reopened the case, and a nationwide scandal emerged.

Oxford University Press In this book, Charles Fountain offers a full and engaging history of one of baseball's true 9780199795130 0199795134 moments of crisis and hand­wringing, and shows how the scandal changed the way Pub Date: 10/7/2015 American baseball was both managed and perceived. After an extensive investigation $27.95/$30.95 Can. and a trial that became a national play, the jury returned not­guilty verdicts for Discount Code: 02 all of the White Sox players in August of 1921. The following day, Judge Kennesaw Hardcover Mountain Landis, baseball's new commissioner, "regardless of the verdicts of juries," 320 Pages banned the eight players for life. And thus the Black Sox entered into American 8 pp. b/w insert mythology. Guilty or innocent? Guilty and innocent? The country wasn't sure in 1921, History / North American and as Fountain shows, we still aren't sure today. But we are continually pulled to the HIS029000 story, because so much of modern sport, and our attitude towards it, springs from the 6.1 in | 9.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED scandal.

Fountain traces the Black Sox story from its roots in the gambling culture that pervaded the in the years surrounding World War I, through the confusing events of the 1919 World Series itself, to the noisy aftermath and trial, and illuminates the moment as baseball's tipping point. Despite the clumsy unfolding of the scandal and trial and the callous treatment of the players involved, the Black Sox saga was a cleansing moment for the sport. It launched the age of the baseball commissioner, as baseball owners hired Landis and surrendered to him the control of their game. Fountain shows how sweeping changes in 1920s triggered by the scandal moved baseball away from its association with gamblers and fixers, and details how American's attitude toward the pastime shifted as they entered into "The Golden Age of Sport."

Situating the Black Sox events in the context of later scandals, including those involving Reds manager and player Pete Rose, and the ongoing use of steroids in the game up through the present, Fountain illuminates America's near century­long fascination with the story, and its continuing relevance today.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Constitutional Personae Heroes, Soldiers, Minimalists, and Mutes Cass R. Sunstein

Key Selling Points • Provides a detailed history of critical historical court cases, not only in terms of outcome but by the behaviors and attitudes of the • Boils all judicial debates down to their essence­whether justices seem themselves as what Sunstein calls Heroes, Soldiers, Minimalists, or Mutes • Casts a new light on longstanding debates about constitutional interpretation and liberty under law • Written by one of the country's leading figures in law and public policy Summary Since America's founding, the U.S. Court had issued a vast number of decisions on a staggeringly wide variety of subjects. And hundreds of judges have occupied the bench. Yet as Cass R. Sunstein, the eminent legal scholar and bestselling co­author of Nudge, points out, almost every one of the Justices fits into a very small number of types regardless of ideology: the hero, the soldier, the minimalist, and the mute.

Oxford University Press Heroes are willing to invoke the Constitution to invalidate state laws, federal legislation, 9780190222673 and prior Court decisions. They loudly embrace first principles and are prone to flair, 0190222670 employing dramatic language to fundamentally reshape the law. Soldiers, on the other Pub Date: 10/5/2015 $24.95/$27.50 Can. hand, are skeptical of judicial power, and typically defer to decisions made by the Discount Code: 02 political branches. Minimalists favor small steps and only incremental change. They Hardcover worry that bold reversals of long­established traditions may be counterproductive, producing a backlash that only leads to another reversal. Mutes would rather say 192 Pages Law / Constitutional nothing at all about the big constitutional issues, and instead tend to decide cases on LAW018000 narrow grounds or keep controversial cases out of the Court altogether by denying Series: Inalienable Rights standing. 5.5 in | 8.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED As Sunstein shows, many of the most important constitutional debates are in fact contests between the four Personae. Whether the issue involves slavery, gender equality, same­sex marriage, executive power, surveillance, or freedom of speech, debates have turned on choices made among the four Personae­­choices that derive as much from psychology as constitutional theory. Sunstein himself defends a form of minimalism, arguing that it is the best approach in a self­governing society of free people. More broadly, he casts a genuinely novel light on longstanding disputes over the proper way to interpret the constitution, demonstrating that behind virtually every decision and beneath all of the abstract theory lurk the four Personae. By emphasizing the centrality of character types, Sunstein forces us to rethink everything we know about how the Supreme Court works. Contributor Bio

Cass R. Sunstein is the Robert Walmsley University Professor at Harvard Law School. From 2009 to 2012, he was Administrator of the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs. One of the nation's most prolific scholars, his books include Nudge, Radicals in Robes, Simpler, and Republic.com. Quotes

"Cass Sunstein provides an enlightening look at the different ways to approach the Constitution. In doing so, he transcends ideology and helps us appreciate different perspectives. He also shows the of his own favorite approach, that of minimalism, which seeks to respect traditions and long­settled practices." ­Walter Isaacson, President and CEO of the Aspen Institute, and author of The Innovators "In this remarkable addition to Oxford University Press' 'Inalienable Rights' series on the American Constitution, persuasively speaks not to theories of constitutional interpretation, but to four archetypical judicial personalities reflected in opinion­writing, and in doing so he opens up an imaginative new perspective for appreciating our constitutional history." ­Peter L. Strauss, Betts Professor of Law, Columbia Law School "In Constitutional Personae, Cass Sunstein analyzes judicial review in the United States in terms of four personalities or archetypes. He shows how this model illuminates a wide range of questions, and he offers a subtle restatement and defense of his favorite persona, the constitutional minimalist. Filled to the brim with insights, this is a splendid and imaginative contribution to constitutional theory." ­Jack Balkin, Knight Professor of Constitutional Law, Yale Law School Marketing Plans • Print Advertising • Online Advertising • National Media Campaign targeting print, online, radio, and television coverage • Social Media Outreach • Online Promotion • Email Campaign Table Of Contents

Key Selling Points • Provides a rigorous introductory treatment of a problem that has become well known both within and beyond the field of philosophy ­ the Trolley Problem • Suggests a solution to the problem and then expands the scope of the solution in new and unexpected ways • Offers general proposals as to when we may and may not harm some people to help others as part of a nonconsequentialist ethical theory • Includes a sustained debate with Judith Thomson, one of the famed originators of the Trolley Problem, who discusses her most recent views on the problem Summary A rigorous treatment of a thought experiment that has become notorious within and outside of philosophy ­ The Trolley Problem ­ by one of the most influential moral philosophers alive today

Suppose you can stop a trolley from killing five people, but only by turning it onto a side track where it will kill one. May you turn the trolley? What if the only way to rescue the five is to topple a bystander in front of the trolley so that his body stops it but he dies? May you use a device to stop the trolley that will kill a bystander as a side effect? The Oxford University Press "Trolley Problem" challenges us to explain and justify our different intuitive judgments 9780190247157 about these and related cases and has spawned a huge literature.

The Trolley Problem Mysteries is an invaluable resource not Status:UNSPECIFIED only to philosophers concerned about the Trolley Problem, but to anyone worried about how we ought to act when we can lessen harm to some by harming others and how we can reach a decision about the question.

Key Selling Points

l Part of The Great Battles Series, the story of the world's most important battles ­ how they were fought, how they have been commemorated, and the long historical shadows that they have cast l Discusses how and why it was fought ­ and its significance in the wider history of the Hundred Years War l Explores the Agincourt story through the centuries, from bowmen to the Beatles, via Shakespeare, Dickens, and the First World War

Agincourt (1415) is an exceptionally famous battle, one that has generated a huge and enduring cultural legacy in the six hundred years since it was fought. Everybody thinks they know what the battle was about. Even John Lennon, aged 12, wrote a poem and drew a picture headed 'Agincourt'.

But why and how has Agincourt come to mean so much to so many? Why do so many people claim their ancestors served at the battle? Is the Agincourt of popular image the Oxford University Press real Agincourt or is our idea of the battle simply taken from Shakespeare's famous 9780199681013 depiction of it? Written by the world's leading expert on the battle, this book shows just 0199681015 Pub Date: 10/27/2015 why it has occupied such a key place in English identity and history in the six centuries $29.95 since it was fought, exploring a cultural legacy that stretches from bowmen to Beatles, Discount Code: 1A via Shakespeare, Dickens, and the First World War. Hardcover 256 Pages Anne Curry first sets the scene, illuminating how and why the battle was fought, as well History / Europe as its significance in the wider history of the Hundred Years War. She then takes the HIS015000 Agincourt story through the centuries from 1415 to 2015, from the immediate, and Series: Great Battle Series sometimes surprising, responses to it on both sides of the Channel, through its 8.5 in | 5.4 in reinvention by Shakespeare in King Henry V (1599), and the enduring influence of both Status:UNSPECIFIED the play and the film versions of it, especially the patriotic Laurence Olivier version of 1944, at the time of the D­Day landings in Normandy.

But the legacy of Agincourt does not begin and end with Shakespeare's play: from the eighteenth century onwards, on both sides of the Channel and in both the English and French speaking worlds the battle was used as an explanation of national identity, giving rise to jingoistic works in print and music. It was at this time that it became fashionable for the gentry to identify themselves with the victory, and in the Victorian period the Agincourt archer came to be emphasized as the epitome of 'English freedom'. Indeed, even today, historians continue to "refight" the battle ­ an academic contest that has intensified over recent years, in the run­up to this sixth hundredth anniversary year. Contributor Bio Anne Curry is Professor of Medieval History and Dean of the Faculty of Humanities at the University of Southampton, after teaching for many years at the University of Reading. She has published many books and articles on the Hundred Years War, as well as definitive works on Agincourt itself and an on­line database of all known soldiers between 1369 and 1453 (www.medievalsoldier.org ). An historical advisor to the battlefield centres at Azincourt, Shrewsbury, and Bosworth, she is co­chair of the "Agincourt 600" committee, tasked with organizing the commemorations of the sixth hundredth anniversary of the battle.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Beyond Bullying Breaking the Cycle of Shame, Bullying, and Violence Jonathan Fast

Key Selling Points • The first systematic integration of existing shame research into a single overarching explanatory theory of shame, a theory that ties together shame, the need for status, and group membership. • The first book to provide a taxonomy of functional and dysfunctional shame management techniques. • The first book to apply such a theory to a diverse group of major social issues including bullying, homophobia, domestic violence, , school shootings, and domestic terrorism ­­ critical issues in today's headlines. • The first book to demonstrate that school shootings are a form of domestic terrorism. Summary The first book to integrate shame research into a single overarching theory

· Why are some kids magnets for bullying? · Why do gay teens commit suicide four times as frequently as "straight" teens? · Why do we have more men and women in prison than any other country in the world? Oxford University Press · Why are school shootings and acts of domestic terrorism on the rise? 9780199383641 0199383642 Pub Date: 11/2/2015 What could possibly be the theme that ties all of these questions together, which $29.95 provides a window into so many aspects of the darker aspects of human behavior? In a Discount Code: 1A word, shame. Hardcover Shame is a powerful and complex emotion, capable of producing dramatic reactions from 256 Pages even the most mild­mannered people. While shame can be employed in positive ways, Family & Relationships / Abuse such as teaching children good manners, other types of shame can be devastating, or FAM001000 even lethal. However, few people truly understand the role of shame in acts of bullying, 6.1 in | 9.3 in violence, and discrimination. Status:UNSPECIFIED

In Beyond Bullying: Breaking the Cycle of Shame, Bullying, and Violence, veteran professor of social work Jonathan Fast deftly weaves together research from the fields of psychology, sociology, economics, and history to create a single overarching theory of shame. The book introduces the concept of "weaponized shame," a toxic and intentional attack on another person, noting that weaponized shame is often at the heart of bullying situations. With clear, straightforward language, Dr. Fast traces the nuances of shame through several common types of bullying, highlighting bullying based on sexuality, gender, and race. Noting the pervasive presence of weaponized shame in American culture, Beyond Bullying extends shame theory to acts of domestic violence, racism, school shootings, and domestic terrorism. The issues that cause bullying are not limited to the schoolyard, but rather are responsible for horrific acts of violence across the nation.

Beyond mere theory, the book provides concrete suggestions for healthy ways of dealing with shame, including techniques for diffusing potentially harmful situations. An invaluable resource for parents of bullied children, Beyond Bullying will also appeal to teachers, counselors, and social workers. Contributor Bio

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Marie von Clausewitz The Woman Behind the Making of On War Vanya Eftimova Bellinger

Key Selling Points • The first biography of Marie von Clausewitz • The first book studying newly discovered correspondence and finally answer questions about Marie von Clausewitz's influence over her husband's work • Discusses extensively the social and cultural climate of Clausewitz's time Summary For generations, among those who revere the work of Carl von Clausewitz, the role of his beloved wife, née Marie von Brühl, in shaping his seminal work on military theory has been a subject of intense speculation. It seems certain that without her On War would never have been published. But as historian and Clausewitz scholar Vanya Eftimova Bellinger establishes in this ground­breaking biography of the "other" Clausewitz, Marie was far more than merely a supportive wife who facilitated her husband's legacy.

Marie's 1810 marriage to von Clausewitz did not make sense by most accounts (least of all to her mother). She was a wealthy, cultured, and politically engaged young woman; he was a minor Prussian officer. But the bond between Marie and Claus was forged by Oxford University Press love, a deep sense of trust, and a meeting of the minds over common interests. A newly 9780190225438 discovered archive of correspondence reveals the extent of Marie's influence on her 0190225432 Pub Date: 11/2/2015 husband, beginning with the very early days of the courtship and lasting until his $29.95 premature death. The two came to a "collaborative opinion" on many topics, from the Discount Code: 1A moral implications of war to the emotional constitution of true leadership. Marie's Hardcover involvement, too, adds insight about the role of class and gender relations in a time 304 Pages when women were excluded from politics­the perspective of a spouse and caretaker on History / Military the home­front, observing the physical and emotional effects of combat. HIS027000 6.1 in | 9.3 in The issues that Marie von Clausewitz raised about the hardships of war­such as the Status:UNSPECIFIED social isolation and treatment of veterans, and the use of violence to achieve political and economic rights­still resonate today. This biography sheds light on an extraordinary life and mind, offering the first comprehensive and compelling look at the woman behind the composition of On War. Contributor Bio

Summary According to Egyptian mythology, when the ancient Egyptian sun god Re cried, his tears turned into honey bees upon touching the ground.

Key Selling Points • Gives the first popular account of the growing scientific evidence for biological clocks in animals related to lunar cycles • Touches on popular Moon­related myths and describes modern scientific efforts to explore moon­related phenomena • Introduces readers to a fascinating array of animal behaviour that is directly or indirectly influenced by lunar cycles Summary Throughout history, the influence of the full Moon on humans and animals has featured in folklore and myths. Yet it has become increasingly apparent that many organisms really are influenced indirectly, and in some cases directly, by the lunar cycle. Breeding behaviour among some marine animals has been demonstrated to be controlled by internal circalunar biological clocks, to the point where lunar­daily and lunar­monthly patterns of Moon­generated tides are embedded in their genes. Yet, intriguingly, Moon­ related behaviours are also found in dry land and fresh water species living far beyond the influence of any tides.

Oxford University Press 9780198724216 In Moonstruck, Ernest Naylor dismisses the myths concerning the influence of the Moon, 0198724217 but shows through a range of fascinating examples the remarkable real effects that we Pub Date: 11/1/2015 are now finding through science.

Key Selling Points • Offers the controversial thesis that US intelligence agencies have inflated the terrorist threat to its current dominant position in the national discourse Summary Following 9/11, Americans' fears of terrorists­especially domestically based Islamic extremists­reached near­hysteria levels. The government and media reports stoked fears that malign actors living in the US had not only the desire but the means to wreak extreme havoc and destruction. Early reports estimated slightly more than 300 al Qaeda operatives living in the United States, and it wasn't long before this number became 2,000 or 5,000 domestic terrorists. As these estimates snowballed, so did spending on federal counterterrorism organizations and measures, and it now totals over one trillion dollars. The federal government launched more covert operations in the name of fighting terrorist adversaries than they did in the entirety of the forty­five year Cold War. For each apprehension of a credible terrorist suspect, the US government created or re­ organized two counterterrorism organizations. The scale of these efforts has been enormous, yet somehow Americans remain fearful of what they perceive to be a massive Oxford University Press terrorist threat. But how well­founded is this fear? Is the threat of terrorism in the 9780190237318 0190237317 United States as vast as it seems and are counterterrorism efforts effective and Pub Date: 12/1/2015 appropriately­scaled? $29.95 Discount Code: 1A In Chasing Ghosts,two of our leading critics of the mushrooming national security state Hardcover show that it has not, statistically speaking, been efficient or successful­to say the 368 Pages least. Only one alarm in 10,000 has proven to be a legitimate threat­the rest are what Political Science / Political John Mueller and Mark Stewart refer to as "ghosts." These ghosts are enormous drains Freedom & Security POL037000 on resources and contribute to a countrywide paranoia that has resulted in widespread support for (and minimal critical questioning of) massive expenditures and infringements 6.1 in | 9.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED on civil , including regular invasions of privacy and legally questionable imprisonments. Mueller and Stewart contend that the "ghost chase" occupying that occupies American law enforcement and fuels federal spending persists because the public has been lead to believe that the terrorism threat is significant.

As they show, it is not a significant threat­certainly not large enough to justify the vast security state apparatus that has emerged to combat it. The chance that an American will be killed by a terrorist domestically in any given year is about one in four million (under present conditions). Yet despite this statistically low risk and the extraordinary amount of resources put towards combatting threats, Americans still worry and the government still spends billions. Until the true threat of domestic terrorism is understood, the country cannot begin to confront whether our pursuit of ghosts is worth the cost. Contributor Bio

Key Selling Points • The first systematic and rigorous examination of the effectiveness of interrogational torture • Adopts game theory to answer questions about the value of interrogational torture • Features meticulous research, including an extensive collection of declassified CIA information • Written in language that is accessible to non­technical and technical audiences alike Summary When the Senate released its so­called "Torture Report" in December 2014 the world would learn that, for years, the CIA had used unimaginably brutal methods to interrogate its prisoners ­ often without yielding any useful or truthful information. The agency had long and adamantly defended its use of torture, staunchly arguing that it was not only just but necessary for the country's safety. And even amid the revelations of the report, questions abound about whether torture can be considered a justifiable tool of national security.

Is interrogational torture an effective method of extracting information? How good does Oxford University Press the information extracted need to be for the torture to be considered successful? How 9780190262365 often or how vigorously must torture be used to achieve valuable information? It may be 0190262362 the case that interrogational torture can never be justified under any circumstances, Pub Date: 11/2/2015 but, according to John Schiemann, if it is to be justified at all, it must be effective. $34.95 Discount Code: 1A According to more than one national poll, most Americans do believe that torture can Hardcover work, and that it can be justified under certain circumstances. But if the information that torturers extract is bad, then the method amounts to nothing more than pure 304 Pages Political Science / Political sadism. So, how can we solve the dilemma over whether to torture or not to torture? Freedom & Security POL012000 In this book, John Schiemann takes a truly unique approach to the question of torture: 6.1 in | 9.3 in game theory. Thinking of torture as a "game" played between an interrogator and a Status:UNSPECIFIED detainee, the book walks the reader through the logic of interrogational torture, comparing the outcomes to the claims made by torture proponents. The book draws on a wide variety of sources ranging from records of the Inquisition to secret CIA memos to trace this logic, illustrating each outcome of the model with a narrative from the real world of interrogational torture. Does Torture Work? is an absorbing and provocative take on one of most discussed human rights and security dilemmas of our time. Contributor Bio

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog We Are an African People Independent Education, Black Power, and the Radical Imagination Russell J. Rickford

Key Selling Points • An intellectual history of subaltern education, a critical analysis of the fate of Black Power in the post­segregation era, and a portrait of African­American self­ activity at the neighborhood level • Puts forth a groundbreaking explanation of Black Power's preoccupation with forging a new people • Spans the last four decades of the 20th century with a focus on the 1970s Summary By 1970, more than 60 "Pan African nationalist" schools, from preschools to post­ secondary ventures, had appeared in urban settings across the United States. The small, independent enterprises were often accused of teaching hate and were routinely harassed by authorities. Yet these institutions served as critical mechanisms for transmitting black consciousness. Founded by activist­intellectuals, the schools strove not simply to bolster the academic skills and self­esteem of inner­city African­American youth but also to decolonize minds and embody the principles of self­determination and Oxford University Press African identity. 9780199861477 0199861471 In We Are An African People, historian Russell Rickford traces the brief lives of these Pub Date: 2/2/2016 $34.95 autonomous black institutions created to claim some of the self­determination that the Discount Code: 1A integrationist civil rights movement had failed to provide. Influenced by Third World Hardcover theorists and anticolonial movements, organizers of the schools saw formal education as a means of creating a vanguard of young activists devoted to the struggle for black 392 Pages 20 illus. political sovereignty throughout the world. Most of the schools were short­lived, but History / United States their stories have much to tell us about Pan Africanism as a social and intellectual HIS036060 movement and as a key part of an indigenous black nationalism. 6.1 in | 9.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED A former journalist, Rickford uses a virtually unknown movement to explore black nationhood and a particularly fertile period of political, cultural, and social revitalization that envisioned an alternate society.

Key Selling Points • The story of the woman who inspired Verdi's La traviata ­ some of the most heart­ wrenching and lyrical music ever composed • A woman who used her charm, wit, and stunning beauty to shoot to the pinnacle of stardom, inspiring scandal and great art in almost equal measure • An amazing rags­to­riches journey from rural poverty to the apex of Parisian fashion, ending ultimately in a tragic early death • Set against the back­drop of the famous cafes and salons of Baudelaire's 'vieux Paris' and the febrile atmosphere of the great spa towns of nineteenth century Europe Summary The Real Traviata is the rags­to­riches story of a tragic young woman whose life inspired one of the most famous operas of all time, Verdi's masterpiece La traviata, as well as one of the most scandalous and successful French novels of the nineteenth century, La Dame aux Camelias, by Alexandre Dumas fils.

The woman at the centre of the story, Marie Duplessis, escaped from her life as an Oxford University Press abused teenage girl in provincial Normandy, rising in an amazingly short space of time to 9780198708544 0198708548 the apex of fashionable life in nineteenth century Paris, where she was considered the Pub Date: 11/1/2015 queen of the Parisian courtesans. Her life was painfully short, but by sheer willpower, $39.95 intelligence, talent, and stunning looks she attained such prominence in the French Discount Code: 1A capital that ministers of the government and even members of the French royal family Hardcover fell under her spell. 416 Pages 38 b& w halftones; 2 maps In the 1840s she commanded the kind of 'paparazzi' attention that today we associate Music / Genres & Styles only with major royalty or the biggest Hollywood stars. Aside from the younger Dumas, MUS028000 her conquests included a host of writers and artists, including the greatest pianist of 6.1 in | 9.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED the century, Franz Liszt, with whom she once hoped to elope. When she died Theophile Gautier, one of the most important Parisian writers of the day, penned an obituary fit for a princess. Indeed, he boldly claimed that she had been a princess, notwithstanding her peasant origin and her distinctly demi­monde existence.

And although now largely forgotten, in the years immediately after her death, Marie's legend if anything grew in stature, with her immortalization in Verdi's La traviata, an opera in which the great Romantic composer tried to capture her essence in some of the most heart­wrenching and lyrical music ever composed.

Key Selling Points • New work from established experts • Authors have served as consultants to governments, military organizations, and think tanks • Draws on data from the Gallup World poll and Gallup polling throughout Egypt, Tunisia, and other Muslim­majority countries Summary The landscape of the Middle East has changed dramatically since 2011, as have the political arena and the discourse around democracy. In Islam and Democracy after the Arab Spring, John L. Esposito, John Voll, and Tamara Sonn examine the state of democracy in Muslim­majority societies today. Applying a twenty­first century perspective to the question of whether Islam is "compatible" with democracy, they redirect the conversation toward a new politics of democracy that transcends both secular authoritarianism and Political Islam.

"This is a very timely book. At a time where many observers are questioning the possibility of a true democratic process within Muslim majority countries, this series of essays shows, from Turkey to Iran, Senegal to Indonesia, that the political experiences are multiple and the way toward democratization is complex, yet open. The authors invite the reader to avoid simplistic conclusions about Islam and democracy. A critical achievement." ­­Tariq Ramadan, Professor of Contemporary Islamic Studies at the University of Oxford

"Democracy can take many forms, and the struggle of Muslim majority countries to find a democracy suited to their distinct cultural and political experiences is, as outlined in Islam and Democracy after the Arab Spring, an epoch­making experiment. Countering the 'clash of civilizations' and 'end of history' prophecies, Esposito, Sonn, and Voll show how pre­ and post­Arab spring political developments in Muslim majority countries are marathon battles to end authoritarian practices in politics, religion, culture and statecraft. A must­read for those wishing to gain a nuanced understanding of the volatile and complex developments tied to Muslim efforts to make democracy a reality." ­­Ebrahim Moosa, Professor of Islamic Studies, Keough School of Global Affairs, University of Notre Dame

"For those who see in the apparent failure of the 'Arab spring' proof of the incompatibility of Islam and democratization, Esposito, Sonn, and Voll's new book offers a nuanced and brilliant rejoinder. No work that I know succeeds better at explaining the logic of the political struggles underway in the modern Muslim world. None more fully deserves to be read by scholars and the general reader alike." ­­Robert W. Hefner, author of Civil Islam: Muslims and Democratization in Indonesia

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Surfing Uncertainty Prediction, Action, and the Embodied Mind Andy Clark

Key Selling Points • A comprehensive tour of emerging work on the predictive mind • Presented rigorously, but without mathematical formalisms • Pitched to cross disciplinary boundaries, exploring ideas at the intersection of neuroscience, philosophy, artificial intelligence, and psychology • The second ever book­length treatment of the predictive mind, and the first to bring work on the predictive mind together with work on embodied cognition Summary How is it that thoroughly physical material beings such as ourselves can think, dream, feel, create and understand ideas, theories and concepts? How does mere matter give rise to all these non­material mental states, including consciousness itself? An answer to this central question of our existence is emerging at the busy intersection of neuroscience, psychology, artificial intelligence, and robotics.

In this groundbreaking work, philosopher and cognitive scientist Andy Clark explores exciting new theories from these fields that reveal minds like ours to be prediction Oxford University Press machines ­ devices that have evolved to anticipate the incoming streams of sensory 9780190217013 0190217014 stimulation before they arrive. These predictions then initiate actions that structure our Pub Date: 11/2/2015 worlds and alter the very things we need to engage and predict. Clark takes us on a $29.95/$32.95 Can. journey in discovering the circular causal flows and the self­structuring of the Discount Code: 02 environment that define "the predictive brain."

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog God Is Watching You How the Fear of God Makes Us Human Dominic Johnson

Key Selling Points • Proposes a new theory of the origins and evolution of not only religion, but also human cooperation and society • Explores how fear of supernatural punishment exists within and outside of religious contexts • Uses an interdisciplinary approach that draws on new research from anthropology, evolutionary biology, experimental psychology, and neuroscience Summary "And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die." The biblical story of the flood crystalizes­­in its terrifying, dramatic simplicity­ ­the universally recognized concept of divine punishment. For millennia human civilizations have relied on such beliefs to create moral order. People who commit crimes or other bad deeds, we are told, will suffer retribution, while rewards­­abstract or material­­await those who do good. This simple but powerful idea has long served to deter self­interest and achieve remarkable levels of cooperation. Indeed, as all societies Oxford University Press seem to have found, these beliefs are so good at promoting cooperation that they may 9780199895632 have been favored by natural selection. Today, while secularism and unbelief are at an 0199895635 all­time high, the willingness to believe in some kind of payback or karma remains nearly Pub Date: 11/2/2015 universal. Even atheists often feel they are being monitored and judged. We find $27.95/$30.95 Can. Discount Code: 02 ourselves imagining what our parents, spouse, or boss would think of our thoughts and Hardcover actions, even if they are miles away and will never find out. We talk of eyes burning into the backs of our heads, the walls listening, a sense that someone or something is out 304 Pages 7 b/w illustrations there, observing our every move, aware of our thoughts and intentions. Science / Life Sciences SCI027000 God Is Watching You is an exploration of this belief as it has developed over time and 6.1 in | 9.3 in how it has shaped the course of human evolution. Dominic Johnson explores such Status:UNSPECIFIED questions as: Was a belief in supernatural consequences instrumental in the origins of human societies? How has it affected the way human society has changed, how we live today, and how we will live in the future? Does it expand or limit the potential for local, regional and global cooperation? How will the current decline in religious belief (at least in many western countries) affect our ability to live together? And what, if anything, will temper self­interest and promote cooperation if religion declines? In short, do we still need God?

Drawing on new research from anthropology, evolutionary biology, experimental psychology, and neuroscience, Johnson presents a new theory of supernatural punishment that offers fresh insight into the origins and evolution of not only religion, but also human cooperation and society. He shows that belief in supernatural reward and punishment is no quirk of western or Christian culture, but a ubiquitous part of human nature that spans geographical regions, cultures, and human history. Contributor Bio

Dominic Johnson received a D.Phil. from Oxford University in evolutionary biology, and a Ph.D. from Geneva University in political science. Drawing on both disciplines, he is interested in how new research on evolution and human nature is challenging traditional understandings of international relations, conflict, cooperation and religion. He is the author of numerous scientific journal articles, as well as Overconfidence and War: The Havoc and Glory of Positive Illusions (2004) and, with Dominic Tierney, Failing to Win: Perceptions of Victory and Defeat in International Politics (2006).

"Think God is good? Think again. In his stunning new book,God Is Watching You, Johnson pulls back the curtain on tens of thousands of years of human evolution to reveal how religion's enduring success lies almost entirely in our belief in divine wrath and an unforgiving universe. And before you say, 'speak for yourself,' read this book. As it turns out, even atheists aren't immune."­Jesse Bering, author of The Belief Instinct Marketing Plans • Online Advertising • National Media Campaign targeting print, online, radio, and television coverage • Social Media Outreach • Online Promotion • Email Campaign • Social Media Promotion Table Of Contents

Key Selling Points • Inspired by The New York Times's essay contest on the ethics of eating meat and edited by two of the contest's top six contestants • Features twelve new essays by leading moral philosophers • One of very few volumes devoted exclusively to the ethics of eating meat • Includes essays that attempt to defend meat consumption Summary A new collection offering provocative and often counterintuitive conclusions on the ethics of meat eating. In a world of industralized farming and feed lots, is eating meat ever a morally responsible choice? Is eating organic or sufficient to change the moral equation? Is there a moral cost in not eating meat? As billions of animals continue to be raised and killed by human beings for human consumption, the significance and urgency in answering these questions grow.

Some argue for the moral permissibility of eating Oxford University Press meat by suggesting views such as farm animals would not exist and flourish otherwise, 9780199353903 0199353905 and the painless death that awaits is no loss to them.

"Spanning the Second Wave to the present wave of the women's movement, these essays constitute a significant body of work on the religious implications of feminism. Their usual omission from feminist and Mormon history makes collection of them here all the more welcome and necessary. They are, indeed, 'essential.' The study of contemporary Mormonism should not be attempted without them." ­­Kathleen Flake, Richard Lyman Bushman Professor of Mormon Studies, University of Virginia

"The depth and breadth of Mormon feminist thought assembled in this volume will bring awareness to some and enlightenment to many. So much that has been thought and felt among Mormon women is here for reflection, reference and discussion.

"In Mormon Feminism: Essential Writings a chorus of diverse women's voices passionately and rationally weaves a narrative that shows us where we've been and points us to the future. Set in recent decades of Mormon history, the story it tells forgets nothing of universal womanhood. As I read, I felt a reassuring sisterhood being formed among our different religious traditions and similar experiences. Together, we are invited to explore and draw lessons from the nuanced feminist themes that connect our lives, affect our faith, and impact our work for equality. There is much solace, encouragement, and inspiration to take in the presence of such strong, smart, and articulate women. This is a rich resource of feminist thought, problem solving, and frameworks for activism that I will revisit again and again." ­­Jennifer Crumpton, author of Femmevangelical: The Modern Girl's Guide to the Good News

"Can one be a Mormon and a feminist? Through the careful combing of historical and modern Mormon feminist writings, the complexity of what it means to be an equal­ minded, intelligent woman in a patriarchal church is here presented in its hopeful, heartbreaking, faithful entirety. Though the answer is complicated, this book honors those who have bravely and eloquently added their voices to the movement. As a church we owe these women­their words and work­much recognition for their progress and perspective." ­­C. Jane Kendrick, writer at cjanekendrick.com

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog  Keeping the Vow The Untold Story of Married Catholic Priests D. Paul Sullins

Key Selling Points • First book­length sociological examination of married Catholic clergy and their wives • Features 115 interviews with priests and their wives, as well as unprecedented access to the U.S. records of the Pastoral Provision • Draws on a national full­sample survey of U.S. Catholic bishops on married clergy Summary At one of the largest Catholic churches in America, hundreds of people make their way into the spacious, well­appointed sanctuary for an evening Mass. The congregation is several times larger than most Protestant megachurches. In addition to its twenty weekly services, eight choirs, and elementary and middle schools, the church also administers a long roster of Bible studies, home groups, community outreach, and specialized programs for every conceivable class and group of persons. The sermon is delivered by the pastor and celebrant priest who, at one point, refers to his struggle to relate to his teenage daughter. No one is surprised, for the long­time leader of this prominent , in a conservative suburb of the Dallas­Fort Worth metroplex, is a married Catholic priest. Oxford University Press 9780199860043 0199860041 Following the Episcopal Church's 1976 decision to ordain women, Catholic leaders in Pub Date: 11/2/2015 America and Rome were approached by Episcopal clergy who opposed the decision and $29.95 sought conversion as a result. The Catholics responded by establishing rules that would Discount Code: 1A allow the Church to receive married convert priests as exceptions to the rule of Hardcover celibacy­a decree known as the Pastoral Provision. In this fascinating book, D. Paul 336 Pages Sullins brings to light the untold stories of these curious creatures: married Catholic 19 illus. priests. Sullins explores their day­to­day lives, their journey to Catholicism, and their Religion / Christianity REL010000 views on issues important to the Church. Surprisingly, he reveals, married Catholic priests are more conservative than their celibate colleagues on nearly every issue, 6.1 in | 9.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED including celibacy: they think that priests should, in general, not be allowed to marry.

Drawing on over 115 interviews with priests and their wives, as well as unprecedented access to the U.S. records of the Pastoral Provision, Keeping the Vow offers the first comprehensive look at these families and their unusual and difficult journey from Anglicanism to Catholicism. Looking to the future, Sullins speculates on what the experiences of these priests might tell us about the future of priestly celibacy. Contributor Bio

"An important and intriguing look at an under­reported and under­appreciated development in post­Vatican II Catholic life." ­­George Weigel, Distinguished Senior Fellow, Ethics and Public Policy Center, Washington DC

"A fascinating insider look at a reality most Catholics are only faintly aware of within their own church. Sullins tells a gripping story in its own right, but one that also has important implications for the future of the Catholic priesthood." ­­John L. Allen Jr., Associate Editor of the Boston Globe and Crux

"A fascinating study that answers such questions as: why are married priests becoming Catholic now? What are their wives like? Why celibacy for Catholic priests? How do married priests and celibate priests compare? Sullins is a very civilized writer, and presents his material with admirable fairness." ­­Michael Novak, author of On Two Wings: Humble Faith and Common Sense at the American Founding

Key Selling Points • The first reliable, concise biography of Napoleon in half a century • Emphasis on Napoleon as self­promoting celebrity and genius of the first total war • Includes an interpretation of Napoleon that stresses his debts to the French Revolution Summary This book provides a concise, accurate, and lively portrait of Napoleon Bonaparte's character and career, situating him firmly in historical context.

David Bell emphasizes the astonishing sense of human possibility­­for both good and ill­­ that Napoleon represented. By his late twenties, Napoleon was already one of the greatest generals in European history. At thirty, he had become absolute master of Europe's most powerful country. In his early forties, he ruled a European empire more powerful than any since Rome, fighting wars that changed the shape of the continent and brought death to millions. Then everything collapsed, leading him to spend his last years in miserable exile in the South Atlantic.

Oxford University Press Bell emphasizes the importance of the French Revolution in understanding Napoleon's 9780190262716 0190262710 career. The revolution made possible the unprecedented concentration of political Pub Date: 11/12/2015 authority that Napoleon accrued, and his success in mobilizing human and material $18.95/$20.95 Can. resources. Without the political changes brought about by the revolution, Napoleon Discount Code: 02 could not have fought his wars. Without the wars, he could not have seized and held Hardcover onto power.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog We Gather Together The Religious Right and the Problem of Interfaith Politics Neil J. Young

Key Selling Points • Upends widely­believed myths about the rise of the Religious Right • Offers an alternative political history of the last three decades • One of the first books to include Mormons in discussions of the emergence of the Religious Right Summary The story of the birth of the Religious Right is a familiar one. In the 1970s, mainly in response to Roe v. Wade, evangelicals and conservative Catholics put aside their longstanding historical prejudices and theological differences and joined forces to form a potent political movement that swept across the country. In this provocative book, Neil J. Young argues that almost none of this is true. Young offers an alternative history of the Religious Right that upends these widely­believed myths.

Theology, not politics, defined the Religious Right. The rise of secularism, pluralism, and cultural relativism, Young argues, transformed the relations of America's religious denominations. The interfaith collaborations among liberal Protestants, Catholics, and Oxford University Press Jews were met by a conservative Christian counter­force, which came together in a 9780199738984 019973898X loosely bound, politically­minded coalition known as the Religious Right. This right­wing Pub Date: 11/2/2015 religious movement was made up of Mormons, conservative Catholics, and evangelicals, $34.95 all of whom were united­paradoxically­by their contempt for the ecumenical approach Discount Code: 1A they saw the liberal denominations taking. Led by the likes of Jerry Falwell, they deemed Hardcover themselves the "pro­family" movement, and entered full­throated into political debates 440 Pages about abortion, school prayer, the Equal Rights Amendment, gay rights, and tax Religion / Religion, Politics & exemptions for religious schools. They would go on to form a critical new base for the State Republican Party. REL084000

6.1 in | 9.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED Examining the religious history of interfaith dialogue among conservative evangelicals, Catholics, and Mormons, Young argues that the formation of the Religious Right was not some brilliant political strategy hatched on the eve of a history­altering election but rather the latest iteration of a religious debate that had gone on for decades. This path breaking book will reshape our understanding of the most important religious and political movement of the last 30 years. Contributor Bio

Young holds a B.A. from Duke University and a Ph.D. in U.S. history from Columbia University. His articles have appeared in American Quarterly, the Journal of Policy History, the New York Times, Slate, Huffington Post, and the Christian Science Monitor. Quotes

"We Gather Together is a path­breaking book that weaves the political biographies of two familiar Religious Right combatants (conservative Catholicism and evangelical Protestantism) with that of an oft­overlooked third (Mormonism) into one compelling tale of growing power. As Neil Young expertly shows, this 'gathering together' was a decades­long process, and never a sure or stable thing. But despite all the theological wrangling and factious name­calling, this coalition of anxious activists emerged as a remarkably united, ecumenical front. Not only is this book a stellar work of history, but it helps explain many of our current political battles."­­Darren Dochuk, Associate Professor of History, University of Notre Dame "This is an important book. Neil Young has dug deep into the familiar narrative of the rise of the Religious Right to show that the collaboration of evangelicals, Catholics, and Mormons was not the smooth and inevitable story of political expediency that many have assumed it was. With subtlety and empathy, Young takes us through the theological and cultural debates that divided each of these communities and compelled many in their ranks to resist political pressure to join forces in the culture wars­­and he helps us understand the complex alliance that finally emerged."­­Molly Worthen, author of Apostles of Reason: The Crisis of Authority in American Evangelicalism "While organizers of the Religious Right claimed to lead a natural and united 'moral majority' of conservative believers, Neil J. Young demonstrates that their coalition was much more diverse and delicate than previously understood. Impressively researched and deftly argued, this brilliant book shows how an uneasy alliance of evangelicals, Catholics, and Mormons­­an alliance marked by competition as much as cooperation­­ nevertheless transformed religion and politics in modern America."­­Kevin M.

Key Selling Points • A fascinating portrait of a woman who rose from professional courtesan to influential advisor and empress Summary Two of the most famous mosaics from the ancient world, in the church of San Vitale in Ravenna, depict the sixth­century emperor Justinian and, on the wall facing him, his wife, Theodora (497­548). This majestic portrait gives no inkling of Theodora's very humble beginnings or her improbable rise to fame and power. Raised in a family of performers near Constantinople's Hippodrome, she abandoned a successful acting career in her late teens to follow a lover whom she was legally forbidden to marry. When he left her, she was a single mother who built a new life for herself as a secret agent, in which role she met the heir to the throne. To the shock of the ruling elite, the two were married, and when Justinian assumed power in 527, they ruled the Eastern Roman Empire together.

Their reign was the most celebrated in Byzantine history, bringing wealth, prestige, and Oxford University Press 9780199740765 even Rome itself back to the Empire. Theodora was one of the dominant political figures 0199740763 of her era, helping shape imperial foreign and domestic policy and twice saving her Pub Date: 11/2/2015 husband from threatened deposition. She played a central role trying to solve the $29.95 religious disputes of her era and proactively assisted women who were being trafficked. Discount Code: 1A An extraordinarily able politician, she excited admiration and hatred from those around Hardcover her. Enemies wrote extensively and imaginatively about her presumed early career as a 280 Pages prostitute, while supporters elevated her, quite literally, to sainthood. 25 illus. Biography & Autobiography / Women Theodora's is a tale of a woman of exceptional talent who overcame immense obstacles BIO022000 to achieve incredible power, which she exercised without ever forgetting where she had Series: Women in Antiquity come from. In Theodora: Actress, Empress, Saint, David Potter penetrates the highly 6.1 in | 9.3 in biased accounts of her found in the writings of her contemporaries and takes advantage Status:UNSPECIFIED of the latest research on early Byzantium to craft a modern, well­rounded, and engaging narrative of Theodora's life. This fascinating portrait will intrigue all readers with an interest in ancient and women's history. Contributor Bio

David Potter is Francis W. Kelsey Collegiate Professor of Greek and Roman History and Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of Greek and Latin at the University of Michigan. His books include Constantine the Emperor, The Victor's Crown, Emperors of Rome, and Ancient Rome: A New History. Quotes

"Potter triumphantly extracts a convincing human being from Procopius' whore and the saint of the Syrian Orthodox tradition. Deep knowledge of context­­from theatre to theology­­combines with intense engagement with the sources to generate a superlative account of the life and times of Byzantium's most iconic empress." ­Peter Heather, author of The Restoration of Rome and Empires and Barbarians

"This gripping portrait of the empress Theodora captures the beauty, brilliance, and piety of one of history's most compelling figures. The empress and her capital come alive as Potter retraces the path that brought Theodora from obscurity to the center of imperial power and her role in shaping Byzantium's most celebrated age." ­Edward Watts, University of California, San Diego

"This book is much more than a straightforward biography or an apology for an empress who has been slandered as over­sexed or over­ambitious. Writing with palpable delight and a deep knowledge of the period, Potter weaves Theodora into networks of athletes and entertainers, generals and aristocrats, bishops and monks, showing her as level­ headed, driven by self­interest, and fiercely loyal to her close circle of supporters. In the process, he offers new perspectives on the larger historical framework of the Later Roman Empire during a time of challenges and transformations, spiked with colorful insights into the daily life of women." ­Claudia Rapp, University of Vienna

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog The Evolution of Atheism The Politics of a Modern Movement Stephen LeDrew

Key Selling Points • Argues that the New Atheism has parallels with religious fundamentalism • Shows that divisions among atheists threaten to fracture the movement • Rejects the widely accepted understanding of contemporary atheism as grounded in liberalism, instead arguing for the existence of an "atheist Right" that mirrors the Christian Right • Contributes to ongoing public debates about the role of religion in public life and in politics Summary The concept of evolution is widely considered to be a foundational building block in atheist thought. Leaders of the New Atheist movement have taken Darwin's work and used it to diminish the authority of religious institutions and belief systems. But they have also embraced it as a metaphor for the gradual replacement of religious faith with secular reason. They have posed as harbingers of human progress, claiming the moral high ground, and rejecting with intolerance any message that challenges the hegemony of science and reason. Religion, according to the New Atheists, should be relegated to Oxford University Press the Dark Ages of superstition and senseless violence. 9780190225179 0190225173 Pub Date: 11/2/2015 Yet Darwin did not see evolution as a linear progression to an improved state of being. $27.95 The more antagonistic members of the New Atheist movement who embrace this idea Discount Code: 1A are not only employing bad history, but also the kind of rigid, black­and­white thinking Hardcover they excoriate in their religious opponents. Indeed, Stephen LeDrew argues, militant 288 Pages atheists have more in common with religious fundamentalists than they would care to Religion / Atheism admit, advancing what LeDrew calls secular fundamentalism. In reaction to REL004000 fundamentalist Christianity and Islamism, this strain of atheism has become an offshoot 6.1 in | 9.3 in of the religion it tries so hard to malign. Status:UNSPECIFIED

The Evolution of Atheism outlines the essential political tension at the heart of the atheist movement. The New Atheism, LeDrew shows, is part of a tradition of atheist thought and activism that promotes individualism and scientific authority, which puts it at odds with atheist groups that are motivated by humanistic ethics and social justice. LeDrew draws on public relations campaigns, publications, podcasts, and in­depth interviews to explore the belief systems, internal logics, and self­contradictions of the people who consider themselves to be atheists. He argues that evolving understandings of what atheism means, and how it should be put into action, are threatening to irrevocably fragment the movement. Contributor Bio

Key Selling Points • Offers new insights into connections between Sondheim's shows • Covers a wide range of topics relating to Sondheim • Ideal for all theatre­goers • Written by preeminent expert in musical theatre Summary In On Sondheim, renowned author Ethan Mordden takes the reader on a tour of Stephen Sondheim's work, arguing for the importance and appeal of the composer­lyricist in American theater and, even more, in American culture. Over the course of eighteen shows, Mordden demonstrates that Sondheim is a classical composer who happens to write musicals. Sondheim has intellectualized the musical by tackling serious content usually reserved for the spoken stage: nonconformism (in Anyone Can Whistle, 1964), history (in Pacific Overtures, 1976), and cannibalism as a metaphor for class warfare (Sweeney Todd, 1979). Yet his work combines complex music and intellectual plots with a masterly skill for the fabric of theatre. His shows are all intensely theatrical, produced with flair and brilliance, whether in the lush operetta of A Little Night Music (1973) or Oxford University Press the quixotic fairy­tale magic of Into the Woods (1987). 9780199394814 0199394814 Pub Date: 12/7/2015 Mordden provides fresh insights and analyses of every Sondheim show, from his first hit $27.95/$30.95 Can.

Key Selling Points • Argues that we have the right to one, and only one, child • Examines the environmental costs of reproduction • Proposes that some instances of governmental control over reproduction are acceptable Summary A compelling argument for the morality of limitations on procreation in lessening the harmful environmental effects of unchecked population

We live in a world where a burgeoning global population has started to have a major and destructive environmental impact. The results, including climate change and the struggle for limited resources, appear to be inevitable aspects of a difficult future. Mandatory population control might be a possible last resort to combat this problem, but is also a potentially immoral and undesirable violation of human rights. Since so many view procreation as an essential component of the right to personal happiness and , the dominant view remains that the government does not have the right to Oxford University Press impose these restrictions on its own citizens, for the sake of future people who have 9780190203436 0190203439 yet to exist.

Sarah Conly is Associate Professor of Philosophy at Bowdoin College and the author of Against Autonomy: Justifying Coercive Paternalism (2013). Quotes

"Sarah Conly's book tackles an urgent, under­discussed topic: Is having children an unlimited, personal right? Or is this view no longer tenable in an era of vast increases in human population? Professor Conly rejects unlimited procreation rights and defends a one child per family limit as a moral imperative and perhaps as a legal requirement. This very fine book is clearly written, thorough in its treatment of the issues, and very fair to the opposing views."­­Stephen Nathanson, Emeritus Professor of Philosophy, Northeastern University

Key Selling Points • First biography of one of the most famous ballerinas of the twentieth century • An intimate portrayal of the personal and professional life of a Soviet dancer • Draws back the curtain on eight decades of shifting Soviet life and art Summary Alla Osipenko is the gripping story of one of history's greatest ballerinas, a courageous rebel who paid the price for speaking truth to the Soviet State.

The daughter of a distinguished Russian aristocratic and artistic family, Osipenko was born in 1932 but was raised in a cocoon of pre­Revolutionary decorum and protocol. In Leningrad she studied with Agrippina Vaganova, the most revered and influential of all Russian ballet instructors. In 1950, she joined the Mariinsky (then­Kirov) Ballet, where her lines, shapes, and movements both exemplified the venerable traditions of Russian ballet and propelled those traditions forward into uncharted and experimental realms. She was the first of her generation of Kirov stars to enchant the West when she danced in Paris in 1956. Five years later, she was a key figure in the sensational Oxford University Press success of the Kirov in its European debut. 9780190253707 0190253703 Pub Date: 12/1/2015 But dancing for the establishment had its downsides, and Osipenko's sharp tongue and $34.95 marked independence, as well as her almost­reckless flouting of Soviet rules for personal Discount Code: 1A and political conduct, soon found her all but quarantined in Russia. An internationally Hardcover acclaimed ballerina at the height of her career, she found that she would now have to 268 Pages prevail in the face of every attempt by the Soviet state and the Kirov administration to 25 illustrations humble her, even as her friends and schoolmates (including Natalia Makarova and Mikhail Biography & Autobiography / Entertainment & Performing Baryshnikov) defected to the West.

Throughout the book, Osipenko talks frankly and freely in a way that few Russians of her generation have allowed themselves to. She discusses her traumatic relationship to the Soviet state, her close but often­ fraught relationship with her family, her four husbands, her lovers, her colleagues, and her son's arrest in Leningrad and his subsequent death. Her voice rises above the incidents as unhesitating and graceful as her legendary adagios. Candid, irreverent, and, above all, independent ­­ Osipenko and her story open a window into a fascinating and little­discussed world. Contributor Bio

Through this article, Singer presents his view that we have the same moral obligations to those far away as we do to those close to us. He argued that choosing not to send life­saving money to starving people on the other side of the earth is the moral equivalent of neglecting to save drowning children because we prefer not to muddy our shoes. If we can help, we must­­and any excuse is hypocrisy. Singer's extreme stand on our moral obligations to others became a powerful call to arms and continues to challenge people's attitudes towards extreme poverty. Today, it remains a central touchstone for those who argue we should all help others more than we do.

Key Selling Points • An significant contribution to the growing body of work on the wartime experiences of women • A compelling story of two women whose clandestine wartime activities reveal the larger complexities of resistance work and loyalty in an occupied country. • Based on archival research, first­hand interviews, memoirs, and closed case files Summary When the Japanese began their brutal occupation of the Philippines in January 1942, 76,000 ill and starving Filipino and American troops tried to hold out on Bataan and Corregidor. That spring, after having been forced to surrender, most of those men were thrown into Japanese POW camps while dozens of others slipped away to organize guerrilla forces. During the three violent years of occupation that followed, Allied sympathizers in Manila smuggled supplies and information to the guerrillas and the prisoners.

Oxford University Press Theresa Kaminski's Angels of the Underground tells the story of four American women 9780199928248 019992824X who were part of this little­known resistance movement: Gladys Savary, Claire Phillips, Pub Date: 12/1/2015 Yay Panlilio, and Peggy Utinsky ­ all incredibly adept at skirting occupation authorities to $27.95/$30.95 Can. support the Allied war effort.

Kaminski's narrative sheds light on the Japanese­occupied city of Manila; the Bataan Death March and subsequent incarceration of American military prisoners in camps O'Donnell and Cabanatuan; and the formation of guerrilla units in the mountains of Luzon.

Angels of the Underground offers the compelling tale of four ordinary American women propelled by extraordinary circumstances into acts of heroism, and makes a significant contribution to the work on women's wartime experiences. Through the lives of Gladys, Yay, Claire, and Peggy, who never wavered in their belief that it was their duty as patriotic American women to aid the Allied cause, Kaminski highlights how women have always been active participants in war, whether or not they wear a military uniform.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog A Foot in the River Why Our Lives Change ­ and the Limits of Evolution Felipe Fernandez­Armesto

Key Selling Points • Why does human culture vary so radically from place to place and change at such a bewildering pace? • Felipe Fernandez­Armesto offers a radical answer to this fundamental question of human history ­ and speculates on what it might mean for our future • Combines insights from a huge range of disciplines, including history, biology, anthropology, archaeology, philosophy, sociology, , zoology, primatology, psychology, linguistics, the cognitive sciences, and business studies • A revolutionary book that challenges scientistic assumptions about culture and proposes a new explanation of how and why cultural change happens Summary We are a weird species. Like other species, we have a culture. But by comparison with other species, we are strangely unstable: human cultures self­transform, diverge, and multiply with bewildering speed. They vary, radically and rapidly, from time to time and place to place. And the way we live ­ our manners, morals, habits, experiences, relationships, technology, values ­ seems to be changing at an ever accelerating pace. The effects can be dislocating, baffling, sometimes terrifying. Why is this? Oxford University Press 9780198744429 0198744420 In A Foot in the River, best­selling historian Felipe Fernandez­Armesto sifts through the Pub Date: 12/1/2015 evidence and offers some radical answers to these very big questions about the human $34.95/$35.00 Can. species and its history ­ and speculates on what these answers might mean for our Discount Code: 02 Hardcover future. Combining insights from a huge range of disciplines, including history, biology, anthropology, archaeology, philosophy, sociology, ethology, zoology, primatology, 304 Pages psychology, linguistics, the cognitive sciences, and even business studies, he argues History HIS000000 that culture is exempt from evolution.

A revolutionary book which challenges scientistic assumptions about culture and how and why cultural change happens, A Foot in the River comes to conclusions which readers may well find by turns both daunting and also potentially hugely liberating. Contributor Bio

Key Selling Points • The first succint history of Realpolitik, it fills a striking a gap in the intellectual market • Uses specific case studies as well as broader ideas and theories • Rather than getting entangled in remote academic debates, it is directed at a broad general audience • Likely to be controversial as it is stimulating Summary Realpolitik is approaching its 160th birthday, though it has existed as a form of statecraft for centuries and is arguably as old as the conduct of foreign affairs itself. Associated with great thinkers from Machiavelli to Kissinger, it is deeply rooted in the history of diplomacy yet also remains strikingly relevant to debates on contemporary foreign policy in the Obama administration today. Despite the fact that Realpolitik has had something of a renaissance in recent years, however, it remains a surprisingly elusive notion, defying easy categorization.

In this concise book, John Bew aims to address this gap, offering a history of the Oxford University Press 9780199331932 concept of Realpolitik in the English­speaking world: its origins as an idea; its practical 0199331936 application to statecraft in the recent past; and its relevance to the foreign policy Pub Date: 12/1/2015 challenges facing the United States and its allies in the future. Now most often $22.95 associated with the conduct of foreign policy, Realpolitik has traditionally had pejorative Discount Code: 1A Hardcover connotations in the English­speaking world and sits uneasily alongside notions of "enlightenment," "morality" and "virtue." But it has also had its defenders, admirers and 384 Pages exponents, who regard it as the best tool for the successful wielding of political power 20 b&w images and the preservation of global order. As such, Realpolitik has both successes and Political Science / History & Theory failures to its name, as Bew's comprehensive and even­handed overview displays. POL010000 5.5 in | 8.3 in Bew begins by charting the evolution of the idea through the work of important thinkers Status:UNSPECIFIED or statesmen from Machiavelli, Cardinal de Richelieu, and Thomas Hobbes up through Carl Schmitt, Kissinger, and Dennis Ross. He then examines how Realpolitik has been evoked and operationalized in US and UK foreign policy during specific episodes in the twentieth century, looking at such cases as the overthrow of Iranian Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh in 1953, and President Nixon's visit to the People's Republic of China in 1972 ­ often taken as the archetypal instance of Realpolitik in action. Bew then uses this historical platform to look forward to emerging foreign policy challenges in a changing, multi­polar, geo­political scene ­ in which Realpolitik and agile statecraft seems as important as ever. Suggesting that there is a uniquely Anglo­American version of Realpolitik, which reflects an attempt (not always a successful one) to reconcile Western ideological and moral norms with purely utilitarian conceptions of the national interest, Bew argues that a more accurate and sustainable version of Anglo­American Realpolitik is one that recognizes the draw of Enlightenment values and ideas.

Directed at a broader audience of current policy­makers, legislators and commentators with an interest in foreign affairs, this is a brilliant introduction to an important topic from one of the field's rising stars. Contributor Bio

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Uninformed Why People Seem to Know So Little about Politics and What We Can Do about It Arthur Lupia

Key Selling Points • Provides solutions for the societal problem of uninformed citizens • Argues that key to educating uninformed citizens is not simply more information, but instead teaching the right information in the right way • Suggests methods of instruction based on years of research on educating voters about important issues like climate change Summary Research polls, media interviews, and everyday conversations reveal an unsettling truth: citizens, while well­meaning and even passionate about current affairs, appear to know very little about politics. Hundreds of surveys document vast numbers of citizens answering even basic questions about government incorrectly. Given this unfortunate state of affairs, it is not surprising that more knowledgeable people often deride the public for its ignorance. Some experts even think that less informed citizens should stay out of politics altogether.

As Arthur Lupia shows in Uninformed, this is not constructive. At root, critics of public Oxford University Press ignorance fundamentally misunderstand the problem. Many experts believe that simply 9780190263720 0190263725 providing people with more facts will make them more competent voters. However, Pub Date: 12/1/2015 these experts fail to understand how most people learn, and hence don't really know $29.95 what types of information are even relevant to voters. Feeding them information they Discount Code: 1A don't find relevant does not address the problem. In other words, before educating the Hardcover public, we need to educate the educators. 352 Pages Political Science / Civics & Lupia offers not just a critique, though; he also has solutions. Drawing from a variety of Citizenship areas of research on topics like attention span and political psychology, he shows how POL003000 we can actually increase issue competence among voters in areas ranging from gun Status:UNSPECIFIED regulation to climate change. To attack the problem, he develops an arsenal of techniques to effectively convey to people information they actually care about.

Citizens sometimes lack the knowledge that they need to make competent political choices, and it is undeniable that greater knowledge can improve decision making. But we need to understand that voters either don't care about or pay attention to much of the information that expertst think is important. Uninformed provides the keys to improving political knowledge and civic competence: understanding what information is important to others and knowing how to best convey it to them. Contributor Bio

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Feast of Excess A Cultural History of the New Sensibility George Cotkin

Key Selling Points • Offers a brisk survey of American cultural history from World War II to Watergate • Features crisp, lively profiles of the flamboyant figures in rock music, visual art, poetry, journalism, and fiction • Penned in engaging, readable prose Summary In 1952, John Cage shocked audiences with 4'33," his composition showcasing the power of silence. From Cage's minimalism to Chris Burden's radical performance art two decades later, the post­war avant­garde sought to liberate the art world by shattering the divide between high and low art.

Feast of Excess presents an engaging and accessible portrait of the cultural extremism that emerged in the United States after World War II. This "New Sensibility," as termed by Susan Sontag, was predicated upon excess, pushing and often crossing boundaries whether in the direction of minimalism or maximalism. Through brief vignette profiles of prominent figures in literature, music, visual art, poetry, theater and journalism, George Oxford University Press Cotkin leads readers on a focused journey through the interconnected stories of 9780190218478 0190218479 prominent figures such as Andy Warhol, Anne Sexton, John Cage, John Coltrane, Bob Pub Date: 12/3/2015 Dylan, Erica Jong, and Chris Burden, among many others, who broke barriers between $35.00 artist and audience with their bold, shocking, and headline­grabbing performances.

George Cotkin is Professor of History at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo. His previous books include Existential America, Morality's Muddy Waters, and Dive Deeper: Journeys with Moby Dick. Quotes

"With great verve, George Cotkin's Feast of Excess demonstrates beyond any doubt that the in­your­face culture of provocation we rightly associate with the 1960s had much deeper roots and a long and varied life. Ranging impressively through all the arts, nicely balanced between anecdote and analysis, this book cuts a wide swath through postwar American culture." ­­Morris Dickstein, author of Dancing in the Dark and Gates of Eden "Feast of Excess is a tour de force. George Cotkin moves across a vast array of figures who created the New Sensibility, traversing different media like painting, photography, music, performance art, literature, and journalism. Both sympathetic yet critical­neither a curmudgeonly neoconservative nor a blind partisan­Cotkin manages to provide a full picture of what some historians call the long Sixties. This book will serve as the work on the New Sensibility for years to come. And to top it all off, it's a pleasure to read." ­­ Kevin Mattson, author of Just Plain Dick: Richard Nixon's Checkers Speech and the "Rocking, Socking" Election of 1952 "George Cotkin brings his signature inventiveness and subtlety to an American cultural period and style that previously lacked a name. Feast of Excess makes vividly real the ragged debauchery and blunt­force iconoclasm of the New Sensibility of extravagance of the 50s, 60s, and 70s.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Ezra Pound: Poet Volume III: The Tragic Years 1939­1972 A. David Moody

Key Selling Points • The final volume of David Moody's critically acclaimed biography • Offers the first thoroughly comprehensive account of Pound's life and work • Covers Pound's tragic final years Summary This third and final volume of A. David Moody's critical life of Ezra Pound presents Pound's personal tragedy in a tragic time. The first volumes of Moody's biography have been acclaimed as 'masterly' (Daily Telegraph), 'exceptional' (Literary Review), and 'invaluable' (New York Times Book Review). In this concluding volume, we experience the 1939­1945 World War, and Pound's hubristic involvement in Fascist Italy's part in it; we encounter the grave moral and intellectual error of Pound holding the Jewish race responsible for the war; and his consequent downfall, being charged with treason, condemned as an anti­Semite, and shut up for twelve years in an institution for the insane. Further, we see Pound stripped for life, by his own counsel and wife, of his civil and human rights.

Oxford University Press Pound endured what was inflicted upon him, justly and unjustly, without complaint; and 9780198704362 0198704364 continued his lifetime's effort to promote, in and through his Cantos and his translations, Pub Date: 12/1/2015 a consciousness of a possible humane and just social order.

Key Selling Points • Provides commentary on C. S. Lewis's major works • Evaluates books on their own merit rather than in light of reader preconceptions • Frames the themes and components of C. S. Lewis's individual texts in the context of his overall project Summary From the unbending belief in invisible powers that animates Till We Have Faces to the depiction of Aslan's sacrifice and resurrection in The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe, C. S. Lewis's writing has sparked intense debate about the presence and function of religion in his works. Today, a reader's opinion of Lewis is more often than not based on his or her perspectives on religion. In Reading C. S. Lewis, Wesley A. Kort examines Lewis's work as a whole, investigating why and at what points Lewis turns to religion­­ and particularly to Christianity­­in order to advance his arguments.

Kort moves through more than a dozen of Lewis's major books, providing a useful guide to their various elements while connecting readers to the literary contexts that Oxford University Press influenced the works and Lewis himself.

Key Selling Points • Features the controversial and counterintuitive thesis that litigation is good for society • Presents an original theory of why litigation is good based on democratic values Summary It is not difficult to find critics of America's famously litigious society. We have more lawyers per capita than anywhere else. Critics say we are unmatched in our willingness to sue, pointing to anecdotes of frivolous suits such as a man who sued his drycleaner over a pair of pants or parents who sued a school when their son broke his leg going down a slide head first. The critics contend that the primary beneficiaries of litigation are attorneys themselves, and that the main effect of excessive litigiousness is reduced business innovation. The tort reform movement that they champion­dedicated to limiting the reach of lawsuits and in some cases eliminating certain types of suits altogether­ has become a powerful force in America politics and law.

The tort reform movement has had some real successes in limiting what can reach the courts, but there have been victims too. As Alexandra Lahav shows, it has become Oxford University Press increasingly difficult for ordinary people to enforce their rights. In the grand scale of 9780199380800 0199380805 lawsuits, actually crazy or bogus lawsuits constitute a tiny minority; in fact, most Pub Date: 5/1/2016 anecdotes turn out to be misrepresentations of what actually happened. In In Praise of $29.95 Litigation, Lahav argues that critics are blinded to the many benefits of lawsuits. The Discount Code: 1A majority of lawsuits promote equality before the law, transparency, and accountability. Hardcover Our ability to go to court is a sign of our strength as a society and enables us to both 256 Pages participate in and reinforce the rule of law. In addition, joining lawsuits gives citizens Law / Litigation direct access to governmental officials­judges­who can hear their arguments about LAW064000 issues central to our democracy, including the proper extent of police power and the 6.1 in | 9.3 in ability of all people to vote. It is at least arguable that lawsuits have helped spur major Status:UNSPECIFIED social changes in arenas like race relations and marriage rights, as well as made products safer and forced wrongdoers to answer for their conduct.

In this defense, Lahav does not ignore the obvious drawbacks to litigiousness. It is expensive, stressful, and time consuming. Certainly, sensible reforms could make the system better. However, many of the proposals that have been adopted and are currently on the table seek only to solve problems that do not exist or to make it harder for citizens to defend their rights and to enforce the law. This is not the answer. In Praise of Litigation offers a level­headed and law­based assessment of the state of litigation in America as well as a number of practical steps that can be taken to ensure citizens have the right to defend themselves against wrongs while not odiously infringing on the rights of others.

Key Selling Points • An accessible guide to the hard science of golf • Features numerous illustrations, charts, and graphs • Discusses topics like trajectory, the physical interaction of club with ball, and putting. Summary While golf has a popular following among casual fans, it has become popular among another passionate yet unlikely group: scientists. Beyond the caddies, carts, and clubs, the game of golf is an applied science. The seemingly simple act of striking a golf ball invokes a wide range of processes, including physics principles such as energy transfer, kinetics, launch angles, spin, and momentum. However, in spite of the growing interest in the fledgling field of "golf science," few books thus far have provided a comprehensive introduction of the subject. In The Science of the Perfect Swing, mechanical engineer Peter Dewhurst offers a full treatment of the science of modern golf. Based on three decades of experience in the physics of golf, Dewhurst examines topics such as the interaction between club face and ball, various aspects of trajectory and impact, and the physics of putting. Rich in illustrations, graphs, and charts, Dewhurst presents physics­based discussions in an Oxford University Press accessible format. Each chapter also contains a substantial "Findings and 9780199382194 0199382190 Consequences" section, which draws conclusions based on the science, and makes Pub Date: 12/1/2015 recommendations on ball­striking and other facets of the game. From the mechanics of $35.00 club design to modeling the trajectory of the ball once it leaves the club face, The Discount Code: 1A Science of the Perfect Swing unravels some of the elusive mysteries about what it takes Hardcover to play a great game of golf. 328 Pages Interesting and informative, The Science of the Perfect Swing strikes a perfect balance 147 between hard science and an accessible tone that will appeal to golf enthusiasts, Science / Physics SCI055000 engineers, and general readers of sports science. 6.1 in | 9.3 in Contributor Bio Status:UNSPECIFIED

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog The Four Freedoms Franklin D. Roosevelt and the Evolution of an American Idea Jeffrey A. Engel

Key Selling Points • Includes seven essays by top scholars, including a photo essay on visual representations of the Four Freedoms • Explains how the quest for universal freedom has animated American actions overseas since 1941 while simultaneously inspiring much of the global opposition to American power by those with a vastly different sense of the kinds of freedom they desire • Argues that the freedom from want FDR aimed to provide for the American people was replaced over time by protection of freedom of the marketplace, which has helped produce today's income equality An incisive look at FDR's most famous speech and the ways it has come to define America Summary The specter of global war loomed large in President Franklin Roosevelt's mind as he prepared to present his 1941 State of the Union address. He believed the United States had a role to play in the battle against Nazi and fascist aggression already underway in Europe, yet his rallying cry to the nation was about more than just national security or Oxford University Press why Americans should care about a fight still far overseas. He instead identified how 9780199376216 0199376212 Americans defined themselves as a people, with words that resonated and defined the Pub Date: 12/14/2015 parameters of American politics and foreign policy for generations.

Four freedoms, to be exact: freedom of speech, freedom Hardcover from want, freedom of religion, and freedom from fear. 240 Pages 25 illus. In this new look at one of the most influential presidential addresses ever delivered, History / United States HIS036060 historian Jeffrey A. Engel joins together with six other leading scholars to explore how each of Roosevelt's freedoms evolved over time, for Americans and for the wider world. 6.1 in | 9.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED They examine the ways in which the word "freedom" has been used by Americans and others, across decades and the political spectrum. However, they are careful to note that the acceptance of the freedoms has been far from universal ­­ even within the United States. Freedom from want, especially, has provoked clashes between those in favor of an expanded welfare state and proponents of limited government from the 1940s to the present day.

In this sweeping look at the way American conceptions of freedom have evolved over time, The Four Freedoms brings to light a new portrait of who Americans were in 1941 and who they have become today in their own eyes ­­ and in the eyes of the entire world. Contributor Bio

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog No Depression in Heaven Religion and the Great Depression in the Mississippi Delta Alison Collis Greene

Key Selling Points • Lyrically written study of the Depression­era Delta • Makes a critical argument about the role of churches in Southern rural society and their failure during the Depression • Brings to life the distinct but intersecting worlds of black and white Americans during the Depression Summary Nowhere was the transition from church­based aid to federal welfare state brought about by the Great Depression more dramatic than in the South. For a moment, the southern Protestant establishment turned to face the suffering that plantation capitalism pushed behind its image of planter's hats and hoopskirts. When starving white farmers marched into an Arkansas town to demand food for their dying children and when priests turned away hungry widows and orphans because they were no needier than anyone else, southern clergy of both races spoke with one voice to say that they had done all they could. It was time for a higher power to intervene. They looked to God, and then they looked to Roosevelt. Oxford University Press 9780199371877 0199371873 When Roosevelt promised a new deal for the "forgotten man," Americans cheered, and Pub Date: 12/1/2015 when he took office, churches and private agencies gratefully turned much of the $34.95 responsibility for welfare and social reform over to the state.

Key Selling Points • A fluid and even­handed study of the memory and history of a key Indian battle in American history • A revisionist account of the most documented Indian War in US history • Argues that Wounded Knee did not end the Indian Wars but simply transferred the venue of conflict from the killing field to the field of memory Summary On December 29, 1890, the US Seventh Cavalry killed more than two hundred Lakota Ghost Dancers ­­ including men, women, and children ­­ at Wounded Knee Creek, South Dakota. After the work of death ceased at Wounded Knee Creek, the work of memory commenced. For the US Army and some whites, Wounded Knee represented the site where the struggle between civilization and savagery for North America came to an end. For other whites, it was a stain on the national , a leading example of America's dishonorable dealings with Native peoples. For Lakota people it was the site of the "biggest murders," where the United States violated its treaty promises and slaughtered innocents. Oxford University Press 9780190249038 Historian David Grua argues that Wounded Knee serves as a window into larger debates 019024903X Pub Date: 1/4/2016 over how the US's conquest of the indigenous peoples should be remembered.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Soul Mates Religion, Sex, Love, and Marriage among African Americans and Latinos W. Bradford Wilcox, Nicholas Wolfinger

Key Selling Points • Features qualitative interviews and fieldwork across the country • Explores the relationship between religion and family life • Examines the largely­ignored element of lived religion in minority communities Summary In 1994, David Hernandez, a small­time drug­dealer in Spanish Harlem, got out of the drug business and turned his life over to God. After he joined Victory Chapel­­a vibrant Bronx­based Pentecostal church­­he saw his life change in many ways: today he is a member of the NYPD, married, the father of three, and still an active member of his church. David Hernandez is just one of the many individuals whose stories inform Soul Mates, which draws on both broad national surveys and in­depth interviews to paint a detailed portrait of the largely positive influence exercised by churches on relationships and marriage among African Americans and Latinos.

Soul Mates shines a much­needed spotlight on the lives of strong and happy minority couples. They find that both married and unmarried minority couples who attend church Oxford University Press together are significantly more likely to enjoy happy relationships than black and Latino 9780195394221 couples who do not regularly attend. Churches serving these communities, the authors 0195394224 Pub Date: 1/29/2016 argue, promote a code of decency, encompassing hard work, temperance, and personal $27.95 responsibility, that benefits black and Latino families.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog The Astronomer and the Witch Johannes Kepler's Fight for his Mother Ulinka Rublack

Key Selling Points • The bizarre but revealing tale of the astronomer Johannes Kepler's long struggle to protect his mother from execution as a witch • An intense family drama that takes us to the heart of Kepler's changing world • Brings to life a small Lutheran community in the center of Europe at the height of the witch­craze • Offers a fascinating glimpse into Kepler's world view, on the cusp between Reformation and scientific revolution Summary Johannes Kepler (1571­1630) was one of the most admired astronomers who ever lived and a key figure in the scientific revolution. A defender of Copernicus's sun­centred universe, he famously discovered that planets move in ellipses and defined the three laws of planetary motion. Perhaps less well known is that in 1615, when Kepler was at the height of his career, his widowed mother Katharina was accused of witchcraft. The proceedings led to a criminal trial that lasted six years, with Kepler conducting his mother's defense.

Oxford University Press 9780198736776 In The Astronomer and the Witch, Ulinka Rublack pieces together the tale of this 0198736770 extraordinary episode in Kepler's life, one that takes us to the heart of his changing Pub Date: 12/22/2015 world.

Status:UNSPECIFIED While advancing rational explanations for the phenomena that his mother's accusers attributed to witchcraft, Kepler nevertheless did not call into question the existence of magic and witches. On the contrary, he clearly believed in them. And, as the story unfolds, it appears that there were moments when even Katharina's children wondered whether their mother really did have nothing to hide... Contributor Bio

Quotes

"...[A]n enthralling, many­sided book... [A]t once a vivid introduction to a fascinating social and cultural world; a profound analysis of a witch trial...and a deep study of one of the greatest scientists who ever lived..." ­­Professor Anthony Grafton, Princeton University

"Gripping and inspiring, this tale of the six­year battle to clear Katharina Kepler of the charge of witchcraft yields striking new insights into the personalities and families involved, their communities and their culture... The past, with its hopes and fears, comes wonderfully to life in this scholarly masterwork." ­­Professor Nicholas Jardine, University of Cambridge

"This book takes you right to the heart of life in the seventeenth century, with all its sense of intellectual possibility, its dreams and its fears. Rublack tells a shocking story. How was it possible for the mother of the famous scientist Kepler to be accused of witchcraft, and why did she come to trial? In gripping prose, Rublack shows how the case destroyed those involved in it. She makes us understand how witchcraft could be credible and why people feared it so much. She makes us understand the psychological wellsprings of Kepler's work. And she presents a whole new account of scientific thinking and its relationship to natural knowledge at the dawn of a new era. The most compelling book I have read for a long time." ­­Professor Lyndal Roper, University of Oxford

Eliot and C.S. Lewis • Adds surprising new dimensions to our knowledge of the Inklings • Recreates secret occult rituals on the basis of private papers and privately­printed documents Summary This is the first full biography of Charles Williams (1886­1945), an extraordinary and controversial figure who was a central member of the Inklings­­the group of Oxford writers that included C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien. Charles Williams­­novelist, poet, theologian, magician and guru­­was the strangest, most multi­talented, and most controversial member of the group.

Oxford University Press He was a pioneering fantasy writer, who still has a cult following. C.S. Lewis thought his 9780199284153 poems on King Arthur and the Holy Grail were among the best poetry of the twentieth 0199284156 century for 'the soaring and gorgeous novelty of their technique, and their profound Pub Date: 12/29/2015 $34.95 wisdom'.

A charismatic personality, he held left­wing political views, and believed that the Christian churches had dangerously undervalued sexuality.

This biography draws on a wealth of documents, letters and private papers, many never before opened to researchers, and on more than twenty interviews with people who knew Williams. It vividly recreates the bizarre and dramatic life of this strange, uneasy genius, of whom Eliot wrote, "For him there was no frontier between the material and the spiritual world." Contributor Bio

Key Selling Points • Draws on large national and international surveys, as well as hundreds of interviews • Critiques religious, political, and self­help solutions to the problem of meaning in the world and in life • Demonstrates that having a purpose in life has concrete benefits for health and well­ being • Argues that your purpose is highly dependent on factors outside your control Summary What is your purpose in life? This simple question motivates some of our most life­ altering decisions, deeply­held beliefs, and profound emotions, as well as the choices we make every single day. How we derive meaning from our existence is crucial to finding happiness, developing relationships, and building societies. In On Purpose, Paul Froese brings together data from large national and international surveys with interviews that illuminate the ways in which people from all walks of life grapple with their continuous search for reason, truth, sense, success, happiness, and­ultimately­transcendence. Froese argues that the desire to connect with something larger than oneself is a Oxford University Press universal urge, manifested most directly, but far from solely, in religious communities. 9780199948901 0199948909 Written in vivid, accessible prose, On Purpose takes the reader on a journey through the Pub Date: 1/4/2016 complexities and consequences of life's most important question. $27.95/$30.95 Can.

Through lively, engaging storytelling that mixes data and analysis with literary and historical examples of the quest for purpose, Froese sheds new light on a timeless and all­too­human quandary. The moral of the book is not that life has some ultimate meaning or no meaning at all, but rather that creating a purpose­driven life has always been a collective project. Contributor Bio

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog The Lost White Tribe Explorers, Scientists, and the Theory that Changed a Continent Michael F. Robinson

Key Selling Points • Very few books on Henry Morton Stanley mention the discovery of Mount Gambaragara and none discuss his encounter with light­skinned peoples there • No book has focused exclusively on white tribes and the Hamitic Hypothesis • Combines vivid stories of exploration with a compelling scientific mystery Summary In 1876, in a mountainous region to the west of Lake Victoria, Africa­­what is today Ruwenzori Mountains National Park in Uganda­­the famed explorer Henry Morton Stanley encountered Africans with what he was convinced were light complexions and European features. Stanley's discovery of this African "white tribe" haunted him and seemed to substantiate the so­called Hamitic Hypothesis: the theory that the descendants of , the son of Noah, had populated Africa and other remote places, proving that the source and spread of human races around the world could be traced to and explained by a Biblical story.

In The Lost White Tribe, Michael Robinson traces the rise and fall of the Hamitic Oxford University Press Hypothesis. In addition to recounting Stanley's "discovery," Robinson shows how it 9780199978489 0199978484 influenced others, including that of the Ainu in Japan; or Vilhjalmur Stefansson's tribe of Pub Date: 1/5/2016 "blond Eskimos" in the Arctic; or the 9,000­year­old skeleton found in Washington State $29.95/$32.95 Can. with what were deemed "Caucasian features." As Robinson shows, race theory stemming Discount Code: 02 originally from the Bible only not only guided exploration but archeology, including Hardcover Charles Mauch's discovery of the Grand Zimbabwe site in 1872, and literature, such as 256 Pages H. Rider Haggard's King Solomon's Mines, whose publication launched an entire literary History / Modern subgenre dedicated to white tribes in remote places. The Hamitic Hypothesis would HIS037060 shape the theories of Carl Jung and guide psychological and anthropological notions of 6.1 in | 9.3 in the primitive. Status:UNSPECIFIED

The Hypothesis also formed the foundation for the European colonial system, which was premised on assumptions about racial hierarchy, at whose top were the white races, the purest and oldest of them all. It was a small step from the Hypothesis to theories of Aryan superiority, which served as the basis of the race laws in Nazi Germany and had horrific and catastrophic consequences. Though racial thinking changed profoundly after World War Two, a version of Hamitic validation of the "whiter" tribes laid the groundwork for conflict within Africa itself after decolonization, including the Rwandan genocide.

Based on painstaking archival research, The Lost White Tribe is a fascinating, immersive, and wide­ranging work of synthesis, revealing the roots of racial thinking and the legacies that continue to exert their influence to this day. Contributor Bio

Key Selling Points • The first authoritative study of the man who gave the famous John Birch Society its name • Argues that the perceived 'martyrdom' of John Birch is a misguided view, propagated and appropriated by a right­wing political cause • Draws on a number of original sources, including Birch's love letters and a lengthy unpublished interview with him a few months before his death Summary John Birch was better known in death than life. Shot and killed by Communists in China, he posthumously became the namesake for a right­wing organization whose influence is still visible in today's Tea Party. This is the remarkable story of an American missionary­ turned­soldier who wanted to save China, but became a victim instead.

Terry Lautz, a longtime scholar of US­China relations, has spoken with Birch's remaining relatives, found letters written to the women he loved, and visited sites in China where he lived and died. The result is the first authoritative biography of this fascinating figure Oxford University Press who continues to haunt the fringes of American political life. 9780190262891 0190262893 Pub Date: 1/4/2016 Birch was a missionary in China during the tumultuous time of the Second World War. $29.95/$32.95 Can. After Pearl Harbor, he volunteered for the U.S. Army, served with Claire Chennault, Discount Code: 02 commander of the famed Flying Tigers, and operated behind enemy lines as an Hardcover intelligence officer. His death at the hands Communist troops soon after Japan's 336 Pages surrender came was a shock, since Mao Zedong's forces had cooperated with Americans Biography & Autobiography until then. Some years later, Robert Welch, a businessman from Boston, promoted Birch / Political BIO010000 as a martyr and made him the namesake for the John Birch Society, one of the most influential and polarizing organizations of the Cold War era. Lautz covers Birch's life and 6.1 in | 9.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED his afterlife, and places him not only in the context of anti­communism, but in the longstanding American quest to shape China's destiny.

In this critical study of a figure who has reached near­legendary status, Lautz cuts through the mythology to explain John Birch ­­ both the man and the political phenomenon. Contributor Bio

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Ballot Battles The History of Disputed Elections in the United States Edward Foley

Key Selling Points • The first history of election controversies in the United States since its founding • Explains why elections ­ especially those with high stakes ­ have and will continue to be fraught with controversy • Offers an explanation for how the structure of the American political system came to be and how that structure contributes to problematical electoral processes Summary The 2000 presidential race resulted in the highest­profile ballot battle in over a century. But it is far from the only American election determined by a handful of votes and marred by claims of fraud. Since the founding of the nation, violence frequently erupted as the votes were being counted, and more than a few elections produced manifestly unfair results. Despite America's claim to be the world's greatest democracy, its adherence to the basic tenets of democratic elections­the ability to count ballots accurately and fairly even when the stakes are high­has always been shaky. A rigged gubernatorial election in New York in 1792 nearly ended in calls for another revolution, and an 1899 gubernatorial race even resulted in an assassination. Though acts of Oxford University Press violence have decreased in frequency over the past century, fairness and accuracy in 9780190235277 0190235276 ballot counting nonetheless remains a basic problem in American political life. Pub Date: 1/4/2016 $34.95 In Ballot Battles, Edward Foley presents a sweeping history of election controversies in Discount Code: 1A the United States, tracing how their evolution generated legal precedents that Hardcover ultimately transformed how we determine who wins and who loses. While weaving a 560 Pages narrative spanning over two centuries, Foley repeatedly returns to an originating event: History / United States because the Founding Fathers despised parties and never envisioned the emergence of HIS036000 a party system, they wrote a constitution that did not provide clear solutions for high­ 6.1 in | 9.3 in stakes and highly­contested elections in which two parties could pool resources against Status:UNSPECIFIED one another. Moreover, in the American political system that actually developed, politicians are beholden to the parties which they represent ­ and elected officials have typically had an outsized say in determining the outcomes of extremely close elections that involve recounts. This underlying structural problem, more than anything else, explains why intense ballot battles that leave one side feeling aggrieved will continue to occur for the foreseeable future.

American democracy has improved dramatically over the last two centuries. But the same cannot be said for the ways in which we determine who wins the very close races. From the founding until today, there has been little progress toward fixing the problem. Indeed, supporters of John Jay in 1792 and opponents of Lyndon Johnson in the 1948 Texas Senate race would find it easy to commiserate with Al Gore after the 2000 election. Ballot Battles is not only the first full chronicle of contested elections in the US. It also provides a powerful explanation of why the American election system has been­and remains­so ineffective at deciding the tightest races in a way that all sides will agree is fair.

Key Selling Points

l Analyzes the benefits and practices of "lawfare"­a security maneuver countries can use instead of armed force in international disputes l Examines how private attorneys can come to play a large role in these international maneuvers l Illustrates the concept with real­world examples of lawfare use by the US, China, Iran, Israel, Palestine, and others

Summary International military interventions can be extremely costly in terms of monetary resources, logistical challenges, and possible soldier and civilian casualties, as well as the potential for catastrophic results to international relations and agreements. In one such example of these enormous potential costs, the US and UK wished to stop a Russian ship from delivering ammunition to the Assad regime in Syria in 2012. Intercepting or confronting a Russian ship in transit could have erupted into open Oxford University Press conflict, so they sought an alternative, non­confrontational maneuver: instead of 9780190263577 0190263571 military intervention, the UK persuaded the ship's insurer, London's Standard Club, to Pub Date: 1/4/2016 withdraw the ship's insurance. This loss of insurance caused the ship to return to $29.95 Russia, thus avoiding an international clash as well as the delivery of deadly weapons to Discount Code: 1A Syria. This use of legal maneuvering in lieu of armed force is known as "lawfare" and is Hardcover becoming a critical strategic platform. 480 Pages Law / International In Lawfare, author Orde Kittrie's draws on his experiences as a lawfare practitioner, US LAW051000 State Department attorney, and international law scholar in analyzing the theory and Status:UNSPECIFIED practice of the strategic leveraging of law as an increasingly powerful and effective weapon in the current global security landscape. Lawfare incorporates case studies of recent offensive and defensive lawfare by the United States, Iran, China, and by both sides of the Israeli­Palestinian conflict and includes dozens of examples of how lawfare has thus been waged and defended against. Kittrie notes that since private attorneys can play important and decisive roles in their nations' national security plans through their expertise in areas like financial law, maritime insurance law, cyber law, and telecommunications law, the full scope of lawfare's impact and possibilities are just starting to be understood. With international security becoming an ever complicated minefield of concerns and complications, understanding this alternative to armed force has never been more important. Contributor Bio

"Lawfare...provides a fascinating analysis of how the vacuum caused by the lack of a sheriff is playing out today in the international legal arena...[T]he book provides numerous, painstakingly documented examples of how, in recent decades, both other governments and non­state actors have increasingly altered and deployed law both to augment their own power and constrain that of the U.S. and its allies...[W]hile Lawfare does an outstanding job of diagnosing the role of law in the international arena, its greatest strength lies in its proposed antidotes ­ its balanced and practical recommendations for how the U.S. and its allies should respond. U.S. and allied policymakers and lawyers should read this important book and heed its call to action." ­ R. James Woolsey, Jr., Chairman of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, Former Director of Central Intelligence (From the Foreword) "Orde Kittrie has written a fascinating and thought­provoking analysis of lawfare ­ the use of law as a substitute for armed force to accomplish international security objectives. Among the book's many strengths are its meticulously researched yet highly readable case studies exploring the cutting­edge sophistication and intensity of lawfare in the Israeli­Palestinian conflict...This book will be valuable to both national security practitioners, who will benefit from its rigorous analysis of this increasingly powerful weapon, and attorneys, who will be fascinated and inspired to see law used to such creative and powerful effect in the international arena." ­Joseph I.

Key Selling Points • Draws from a wide range of previously unexamined archival sources • Offers a new portrayal of the pro­life movement that will surprise people on both sides of the abortion debate Summary On April 16, 1972, ten thousand people gathered in Central Park to protest New York's liberal abortion law. Emotions ran high, reflecting the nation's extreme polarization over abortion. Yet the divisions did not fall neatly along partisan or religious lines­the assembled protesters were far from a bunch of fire­breathing culture warriors. In Defenders of the Unborn, Daniel K. Williams reveals the hidden history of the pro­life movement in America, showing that a cause that many see as reactionary and anti­ feminist began as a liberal crusade for human rights.

For decades, the media portrayed the pro­life movement as a Catholic cause, but by the time of the Central Park rally, that stereotype was already hopelessly outdated. The kinds of people in attendance at pro­life rallies ranged from white Protestant physicians, Oxford University Press to young mothers, to African American Democratic legislators­even the occasional 9780199391646 member of Planned Parenthood. One of New York City's most vocal pro­life advocates 0199391645 Pub Date: 1/4/2016 was a liberal Lutheran minister who was best known for his civil rights activism and his $29.95 protests against the Vietnam War. The language with which pro­lifers championed their Discount Code: 1A cause was not that of conservative Catholic theology, infused with attacks on Hardcover contraception and women's sexual freedom. Rather, they saw themselves as civil rights 360 Pages crusaders, defending the inalienable right to life of a defenseless minority: the unborn 10 illus. fetus. It was because of this grounding in human rights, Williams argues, that the right­ History / United States to­life movement gained such momentum in the early 1960s. Indeed, pro­lifers were HIS036060 winning the battle before Roe v. Wade changed the course of history. 6.1 in | 9.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED Through a deep investigation of previously untapped archives, Williams presents the untold story of New Deal­era liberals who forged alliances with a diverse array of activists, Republican and Democrat alike, to fight for what they saw as a human rights cause. Provocative and insightful, Defenders of the Unborn is a must­read for anyone who craves a deeper understanding of a highly­charged issue. Contributor Bio

"Daniel Williams recasts the history of the pro­life movement, showing that it is not simply a backlash against women's rights, the sexual revolution, or Roe v. Wade.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog The Future of Foreign Intelligence Privacy and Surveillance in a Digital Age Laura Donohue

Key Selling Points • Approaches the controversy of 4th amendment infringements from the perspective of national security law • Assesses how technology has changed the way we must look at government surveillance • Takes a moderate, rational approach to the future of surveillance that necessary for national security yet does not violate the rights of citizens Summary Since the Revolutionary War, America's military and political leaders have recognized that U.S. national security depends upon the collection of intelligence. Absent information about foreign threats, the thinking went, the country and its citizens stood in great peril. To address this, the Courts and Congress have historically given the President broad leeway to obtain foreign intelligence. But in order to find information about an individual in the United States, the executive branch had to demonstrate that the person was an agent of a foreign power. Today, that barrier no longer exists. The intelligence community now collects massive amounts of data and then looks for Oxford University Press potential threats to the United States. 9780190235383 0190235381 Pub Date: 4/1/2016 As renowned national security law scholar Laura K. Donohue explains in The Future of $24.95 Foreign Intelligence, the internet and new technologies such as biometric identification Discount Code: 1A systems have not changed our lives in countless ways. But they have also led to a very Hardcover worrying transformation. The amount and types of information that the government can 224 Pages obtain has radically expanded, and information that is being collected for foreign Law / Civil Rights intelligence purposes is now being used for domestic criminal prosecution. Traditionally, LAW013000 the Courts have allowed exceptions to the Fourth Amendment rule barring illegal search Series: Inalienable Rights and seizure on national security grounds. But the new ways in which we collect 5.5 in | 8.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED intelligence are swallowing the rule altogether. Just as alarming, the ever­weaker standards that mark foreign intelligence collection are now being used domestically­and the convergence between these realms threatens individual liberty.

Donohue traces the evolution of foreign intelligence law and pairs that account with the progress of Fourth Amendment jurisprudence. She argues that the programmatic surveillance that the National Security Agency conducts amounts to a general warrant­ the prevention of which was the point of introducing the Fourth Amendment. The expansion of foreign intelligence surveillance­leant momentum by significant advances in technology, the Global War on Terror, and the emphasis on securing the homeland­now threatens to consume protections essential to privacy, which is a necessary component of a healthy democracy. Donohue offers an agenda for reining in the national security state's expansive reach, primarily through Congressional statutory reform that will force the executive and judicial branches to take privacy seriously, even as it provides for the continued collection of intelligence central to U.S. national security. Both alarming and penetrating, this is essential reading for anyone interested in the future of foreign intelligence and privacy in the United States. Contributor Bio

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog The Future of the Professions How Technology Will Transform the Work of Human Experts Richard Susskind, Daniel Susskind

Key Selling Points • The first book to challenge the relevance of the professions in the 21st century • Describes how technology will transform the work of all professionals • Urges readers to rethink the way that expertise is shared in society • Builds on 30 years of research and practical work • Presents ground­breaking thinking on the future of work and artificial intelligence • Outlines the people and systems that, in the long term, will replace the professions Beyond the Professions explains how increasingly capable technologies will place the 'practical expertise' of the finest specialists at the fingertips of everyone, often at no or low cost and without face­to­face interaction. Summary This book predicts the decline of today's professions and describes the people and systems that will replace them. In an Internet society, according to Richard Susskind and Daniel Susskind, we will neither need nor want doctors, teachers, accountants, architects, the clergy, consultants, lawyers, and many others, to work as they did in the 20th century. Oxford University Press 9780198713395 0198713398 The Future of the Professions explains how 'increasingly capable systems' ­­ from Pub Date: 1/1/2016 telepresence to artificial intelligence ­­ will bring fundamental change in the way that $29.95 the 'practical expertise' of specialists is made available in society. Discount Code: 1A Hardcover The authors challenge the 'grand bargain' ­­ the arrangement that grants various 256 Pages monopolies to today's professionals. They argue that our current professions are Business & Economics / Information Management antiquated, opaque and no longer affordable, and that the expertise of their best is BUS083000 enjoyed only by a few. In their place, they propose six new models for producing and 6.1 in | 9.3 in distributing expertise in society. Status:UNSPECIFIED The book raises important practical and moral questions. In an era when machines can out­perform human beings at most tasks, what are the prospects for employment, who should own and control online expertise, and what tasks should be reserved exclusively for people?

Based on the authors' in­depth research of more than ten professions, and illustrated by numerous examples from each, this is the first book to assess and question the relevance of the professions in the 21st century. Contributor Bio

Key Selling Points • Provides comprehensive, lively coverage of an important and neglected topic. • Examines the dilemma of curing traumatised soldiers through drugs, and thereby risking their dehumanisation into emotionless killers • Anyone interested in the relationship between drugs and war will automatically consult this book. Summary Shooting Up: A Short History of Drugs and War examines how intoxicants have been put to the service of states, empires and their armies throughout history. Since the beginning of organized combat, armed forces have prescribed drugs to their members for two general purposes: to enhance performance during combat and to counter the trauma of killing and witnessing violence after it is over. Stimulants (e.g. alcohol, cocaine, and amphetamines) have been used to temporarily create better soldiers by that improving stamina, overcoming sleeplessness, eliminating fatigue, and increasing fighting spirit. Downers (e.g. alcohol, opiates, morphine, heroin, marijuana, barbiturates) have also been useful in dealing with the soldier's greatest enemy ­ shattered nerves. Oxford University Press Kamienski's focuses on drugs "prescribed" by military authorities, but also documents the 9780190263478 0190263474 widespread unauthorised consumption by soldiers themselves. Combatants have always Pub Date: 2/1/2016 treated with various drugs and alcohol, mainly for recreational use and as a reward to $29.95 themselves for enduring the constant tension of preparing for. Although not officially Discount Code: 1A approved, such "self­medication" is often been quietly tolerated by commanders in so Hardcover far as it did not affect combat effectiveness. This volume spans the history of combat 352 Pages from the use of opium, coca, and mushrooms in pre­modern warfare to the efforts of Political Science / History & modern militaries, during the Cold War in particular, to design psychochemical offensive Theory weapons that can be used to incapacitate rather than to kill the enemy.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Building a Business of Politics The Rise of Political Consulting and the Transformation of American Democracy Adam Sheingate

Key Selling Points

l Traces the history of political consultants to the early­twentieth century l Examines the correlation between the use of political consultants and the rise of the "permanent campaign" l Argues that consultants affect not only what constituents know about politicians, but also what politicians know about their constituents; therefore, understanding this privileged relationship is critical to understanding the current state of American politics

Summary Political races in the United States rely heavily on highly paid political consultants who carefully curate the images of politicians, advise candidates on polling and analytics, and shape voters' perceptions through marketing and advertising techniques. More than half of the $6 billion spent in the 2012 election went to consultants who controlled

virtually every aspect of the campaigns, from polling, fundraising, and media to more Oxford University Press novel techniques of social media and micro­targeting. These consultants play a central 9780190217198 role in political campaigns­determining not only how the public sees politicians, but also 0190217197 Pub Date: 1/4/2016 how politicians see the public. $29.95 Discount Code: 1A In Building a Business of Politics, author Adam Sheingate traces the history of political Hardcover consultants from its origins in the publicity experts and pollsters of the 1920s and 1930s 296 Pages to the strategists and media specialists of the 1970s who transformed political Political Science / Political campaigns into a highly profitable business. Today, consultants command a hefty fee Process from politicians as they turn campaign cash from special interest groups and wealthy POL008000 donors into advertisements, polls, and direct mail solicitations characteristic of modern Series: Studies in Postwar American Political Development campaigns. Status:UNSPECIFIED The implications of this system on the state of American democracy are significant: the rise of the permanent campaign brings with it the rise of a permanent campaign industry. A professional political class stands between the voters and those who claim to represent them, influencing messages on both sides. Sheingate not only shows how political consultants have reshaped politics, though; he also covers recent developments like the commercialization of digital campaign tools and the consolidation of the political consulting industry into global media conglomerates. Building a Business of Politics is both a definitive account of the consulting profession and a powerful reinterpretation of how political professionals reshaped American democracy in the modern era.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Shadows of Revolution Reflections on France, Past and Present David A. Bell

Key Selling Points • Collects, for the first time, David Bell's essays on France and its history in a single volume • Reflects on the French Revolution and how it continues to affect France and the rest of the world • Examines the aftermath of the Vichy regime in France and the country's attempts to come to terms with its part in World War II Summary Renowned historian, essayist, and journalist David A. Bell has long made France and its history the subject of his scholarly gaze and the object of his enduring affection. Shadows of Revolution: Reflections on France, Past and Present gathers together his writing, composed over a period of more than 25 years, into a single volume. As the title of this collection suggests, Bell views much of French history through the lens of the Revolutionary era. Within a space of a dozen years, from Bastille to Bonaparte, the country experimented with and experienced every form of governance, creating in the process, as Bell puts it, "the most intense political laboratory the world had ever Oxford University Press known." The Revolution remains the country's defining era, delineating its sense of 9780190262686 0190262680 identity and overshadowing the events that followed it. Yet another, Bell argues, is the Pub Date: 1/4/2016 Vichy period and World War Two­France's dark night of the soul­with whose legacies $29.95 the country continues to contend. These two moments of violent and transformative Discount Code: 1A upheaval may dominate French history, but as this collection and Bell's observational Hardcover powers reveal, the full range of topics involving France is endlessly rich and diverse. 352 Pages Divided into eight sections, it connects France's education to its national identity, the History / Europe Enlightenment to the Revolution and human rights, Napoleon to Victor Hugo, and HIS013000 nineteenth­century anti­Semitism to such recent events such as the riots of 2006, the 6.1 in | 9.3 in Arab Spring, and the Charlie Hebdo tragedy.

Key Selling Points

l Tackles issues of scarcity and abundance in North American history l Brings big ideas down to earth with numerous "field trips" to specific locales l Presents as a historical narrative with commentary on current events, not a polemic

Summary The discovery of the Americas around 1500 AD was an extraordinary watershed in human experience. It gave rise to the modern period of human ecology, a phenomenon global in scope that set in motion profound changes in almost every society on earth. This new period, which saw the depletion of the lands of the New World, proved tragic for some, triumphant for others, and powerfully affecting for all.

In this work, acclaimed environmental historian Donald Worster takes a global view in his examination of the ways in which complex issues of worldwide abundance and scarcity Oxford University Press have shaped American society and behavior over three centuries. Looking at the limits 9780199844951 nature imposes on human ambitions, he questions whether America today is in the midst 019984495X of a shift from a culture of abundance to a culture of limits­and whether American Pub Date: 2/1/2016 $27.95/$30.95 Can. consumption has become reliant on the global South.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Just Another Southern Town Mary Church Terrell and the Struggle for Racial Justice in the Nation's Capital Joan Quigley

Key Selling Points • The first trade book on United States v. Thompson, a landmark case in the earliest days of the civil rights movement • Brings attention to the indomitable Mary Church Terrell, who has been overlooked by civil rights scholarship • A lively courtroom drama that considers questions of the Supreme Court's role as an arbiter of social change Summary In January of 1950, Mary Church Terrell, an 86­year­old charter member of the NAACP, headed into Thompson's Restaurant, just a few blocks from the White House, and requested to be served. She and her companions were informed by the manager that they could not eat in his establishment, because they were "colored." Terrell, a former suffragette and one of the country's first college­educated African American women, took the matter to court. Three years later, the Supreme Court vindicated her outrage: United States v. Thompson was decided in June 1953, invalidating the segregation of restaurants and cafes in the nation's capital. Oxford University Press 9780199371518 0199371512 In Just Another Southern Town, Joan Quigley recounts an untold chapter of the civil Pub Date: 2/2/2016 rights movement: an epic battle to topple segregation in Washington, the symbolic $29.95/$30.05 Can. home of American democracy. At the book's heart is the formidable Mary Terrell and the Discount Code: 02 test case she mounts seeking to enforce Reconstruction­era laws prohibiting Hardcover segregation in D.C. restaurants. Through the prism of Terrell's story, Quigley reassesses 320 Pages Washington's relationship to civil rights history, bringing to life a pivotal fight for equality 20 b/w that erupted five years before Rosa Parks refused to move to the back of a Montgomery History / United States HIS036060 bus and a decade before the student sit­in movement rocked segregated lunch counters across the South. 6.1 in | 9.3 in Status:UNSPECIFIED At a time when most civil rights scholarship begins with Brown v. Board of Education, Just Another Southern Town unearths the story of the nation's capital as an early flashpoint on race. A rich portrait of American politics and society in the mid­20th century, it interweaves Terrell's narrative with the courtroom drama of the case and the varied personalities of the justices who ultimately voted unanimously to prohibit segregated restaurants. Resonating with gestures of courage and indignation that radiate from the capital's streets and sidewalks to its marble­clad seats of power, this work restores Mary Church Terrell and the case that launched a crusade to their rightful place in the pantheon of civil rights history.

Key Selling Points • Powerful critique of how the Federal Reserve governs the American economy • Essential reading for anyone interested in inequality Summary The Federal Reserve is the most powerful central bank in the world. Without its central bank, America would be subject to devastating fluctuations in currency value and chronic economic instability. To stabilize the economy, the Fed adjusts interest rates and intervenes in the economy more directly when appropriate. According to most Fed observers, it as an impartial referee exercising its independence free from political interference in order to advance the best interests of America. Its actions during the Great Recession were heroic, saving the American and indeed the world economy from a far worse fate.

Wrong.

Lawrence Jacobs and Desmond King's Fed Power is the first sustained examination of Oxford University Press 9780199388967 the Fed as a potent political institution that systematically provides concealed 0199388962 advantages to a privileged few. The authors trace the Fed's historic development from Pub Date: 2/1/2016 the fiery tug­of­war over monetary policy during the 19th century to its current position $24.95/$27.50 Can. as the most important institution in the American economy, possessing unparalleled Discount Code: 02 Hardcover capacity and autonomy to intervene in private markets. Yet despite its power and resources, it was asleep at the wheel when the crisis hit. After it hit, the Fed acted 240 Pages swiftly to contain the crisis, but in the process exposed its real preferences. Jacobs and Political Science / Public Policy King dissect how the Fed's programs during the Great Recession funneled enormous POL024000 sums to a select few in the finance industry while leaving Main Street businesses adrift 5.5 in | 8.5 in Status:UNSPECIFIED and millions of homeowners underwater. Far from serving the national interest, the Fed increased economic inequality in America and further enriched the "one percent."

America is heading into the next financial crisis without an effective central bank. 'End the Fed' is a popular slogan that not only voices the people's displeasure with the Fed's favoritism, but also speaks to a national feeling of the Fed's illegitimacy. Of course, we need a powerful and capable central bank ­ getting rid of it is a roadmap to mass unemployment and impoverishment. Jacobs and King present an energetic reform agenda to build the sort of accountable central bank that other countries, like Canada, already possess and which can help ensure that the economy remains stable and prosperous for all and not just a few.

As it grew into a major industrial power, it demanded enormous amounts of steel for new factories and cities, copper for electronic wires, petroleum for cars and manufacturing plants, and and cattle to feed its workers. By the 1990s, many Latin American countries were riding China's coattails and beginning to prosper from the new demand. Ever since China entered the World Trade Organization at the turn of the century, Latin America supplied China with more and more of the primary commodities it needs and more. That in turn has produced one the Oxford University Press most impressive periods of economic growth on the continent in fifty years. And it was 9780190246730 0190246731 more evenly spread too ­ a region infamous for its extreme inequality saw it decline by a Pub Date: 2/3/2016 couple of percentage points over the course of the era. $27.95/$30.95 Can.

While the Latin American region saw Status:UNSPECIFIED significant economic growth due to China's rise over the past decades, Latin Americans saved very little of the windfall profits it earned even as the region saw a significant hollowing of its industrial base. What is more, commodity­led growth during the China boom reignited social and environmental conflicts across the region.

Scholars and reporters have covered the Chinese expansion into East Asia, Southeast Asia, Australasia, Africa, the US, and Europe. Yet China's penetration Latin America is as little understood as it is significant­especially for America given its longstanding ties to the region. Gallagher provides a clear overview of China's growing economic ties with Latin America and points to ways that Latin American nations, China, and even the United States can act in order to make the next decades of China­Latin America economic activity more prosperous for all involved.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog  Eisenhower's Guerrillas The Jedburghs, the Maquis, and the Liberation of France Benjamin F. Jones

Key Selling Points • Tells the fascinating story of the often overlooked Jedburgh teams and their role in aiding the French resistance • Author Benjamin Jones, who served with U.S. forces in Afghanistan, offers unique insight into irregular warfare • Explains the Jedburgh operations with an understanding of how the strategic disconnects among leadership at the top impacted them tactically Summary The challenges facing General Dwight Eisenhower before the Normandy Invasion were not merely military but political. He knew that to liberate France, and to hold it, the Allies needed local help, which would necessitate coordinating with the highly independent French resistance groups known collective as the maquis. The Allies' objective was to push the Germans out of France. The French objective, one the other hand, was a France free of all foreign armies, including the Allies. President Roosevelt refused to give full support to Charles de Gaulle, whom he mistrusted, and declined to supply the timing, location, and other key details of Operation Overlord to his Free Oxford University Press French government.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Vagrant Nation Police Power, Constitutional Change, and the Making of the 1960s Risa Goluboff

Key Selling Points • Looks at the legal history of this tumultuous time from the perspective of how overturning one narrow set of laws ­ vagrancy laws ­ contributed to a blossoming of societal changes • Examines the culture wars of the 1960s from an analytical, legal angle • Traces the history of vagrancy laws and what resulted from their overturning Summary Prior to the 1950s, it was remarkably easy for police to arrest people for a wide variety of activities performed in the streets. Throughout the country, vagrancy laws were far­ reaching and pervasive. Yet by the end of the 1960s, streets across America hosted both massive political protests and a cultural revolution that reshaped not only the nation's public spaces, but more broadly its public life. For the era or against it, virtually all agreed that America after the 1960s was starkly different than before it. What happened?

In Vagrant Nation, Risa Goluboff provides a truly groundbreaking explanation of the Oxford University Press transformation. Focusing on Court decisions that loosened vagrancy laws and opened up 9780199768448 0199768447 the streets to Americans in all their variety, she shows how legal change helped fuel Pub Date: 2/1/2016 highly public social movements advocating everything from civil rights to peace to gay $29.95 rights to cultural revolution. Indeed, increased access to the streets increased their Discount Code: 1A public presence and thereby social power. The book is a brilliant example of how a Hardcover seemingly small event ­alteratations to the relatively minor crime of vagrancy­can 336 Pages contribute to a social revolution. Not only that, Goluboff powerfully demonstrates how History / United States the courts can advance social change­make history, so to speak. HIS036060

6.1 in | 9.3 in The vagrancy laws were that were on the books virtually everywhere in the 1950s Status:UNSPECIFIED served as a catchall device for police forces intent on establishing public order; you could be arrested for everything from causing a disturbance to behaving in a way contrary to the norm­fraternizing with a member of another race, for example, or publically preaching non­mainstream beliefs like communism. Given the very fluid interpretation of vagrancy, police inevitably abused it to the point where they could arrest almost any "nonconforming" person. Once the Supreme Court began invalidating these laws, it opened up public space to any manner of dissenter or nonconformist: hippies, war protestors, civil rights activists, interracial couples, gays, and, of course, vagrants­all the people occupying spaces previously off­limits to them.

Goluboff's account is not just a investigation of the relationship between law and social change, however. It is also a ground­up history­from Skid Row to the Supreme Court­of the culture wars between the New Left and New Right. The results of these battles are abundantly evident today in both positive ways­­like the increased openness to all in America's public spaces­­and negative ways­­especially the explosion of homelessness afterward. In sum, she shows that major societal changes can result not only from big waves, but from seeming ripples too. Contributor Bio

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog The Catholic Enlightenment The Forgotten History of a Global Movement Ulrich L. Lehner

Key Selling Points • Tells the forgotten story of open­minded Catholics during the Enlightenment who fought for ideals commonly thought of today as being strictly opposed by Catholics • Offers a global perspective on Catholic reformers in the eighteenth century • Makes a case for extending the era of the Catholic counter­reformation to the 18th century Summary "Whoever needs an act of faith to elucidate an event that can be explained by reason is a fool, and unworthy of reasonable thought." This line, spoken by the notorious 18th­ century libertine Giacomo Casanova, illustrates a deeply entrenched perception of religion, as prevalent today as it was hundreds of years ago. It is the sentiment behind the narrative that Catholic beliefs were incompatible with the Enlightenment ideals. Catholics, many claim, are superstitious and traditional, opposed to democracy and gender equality, and hostile to science. It may come as a surprise, then, to learn that Casanova himself was a Catholic. In The Catholic Enlightenment, Ulrich Lehner points to such figures as representatives of a long­overlooked thread of a reform­minded Oxford University Press Catholicism, which engaged Enlightenment ideals with as much fervor and intellectual 9780190232917 0190232919 gravity as anyone. Their story opens new pathways for understanding how faith and Pub Date: 2/1/2016 modernity can interact in our own time. $29.95 Discount Code: 1A Lehner begins two hundred years before the Enlightenment, when the Protestant Hardcover Reformation destroyed the hegemony Catholicism had enjoyed for centuries. During this 264 Pages time the Catholic Church instituted several reforms, such as better education for Religion / Christianity pastors, more liberal ideas about the roles of women, and an emphasis on human REL010000 freedom as a critical feature of theology. These actions formed the foundation of the 6.1 in | 9.3 in Enlightenment's belief in individual freedom. While giants like Spinoza, Locke, and Status:UNSPECIFIED Voltaire became some of the most influential voices of the time, Catholic Enlighteners were right alongside them. They denounced fanaticism, superstition, and prejudice as irreconcilable with the Enlightenment agenda.

In 1789, the French Revolution dealt a devastating blow to their cause, disillusioning many Catholics against the idea of modernization. Popes accumulated ever more power and the Catholic Enlightenment was snuffed out. It was not until the Second Vatican Council in 1962 that questions of Catholicism's compatibility with modernity would be broached again.

Ulrich Lehner tells, for the first time, the forgotten story of these reform­minded Catholics. As Pope Francis pushes the boundaries of Catholicism even further, and Catholics once again grapple with these questions, this book will prove to be required reading. Contributor Bio

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Until There Is Justice The Life of Anna Arnold Hedgeman Jennifer Scanlon

Key Selling Points • Anna Arnold Hedgeman's life upends conventional thinking on many aspects of the civil rights and feminist movements • Clarifies the connections among race, gender, and religion throughout the civil rights movement • Provides a vast array of new information on a key but under­studied civil rights leader • Encourages interracial, interfaith dialogue and collaboration Summary A demanding feminist, devout Christian, and savvy grassroots civil rights organizer, Anna Arnold Hedgeman played a key role in over half a century of social justice initiatives. Like many of her colleagues, including A. Philip Randolph, Betty Friedan, and Martin Luther King, Jr., Hedgeman ought to be a household name, but until now has received only a fraction of the attention she deserves.

In Until There Is Justice, author Jennifer Scanlon presents the first­ever biography of Hedgemen. Through a commitment to faith­based activism, civil rights, and feminism, Oxford University Press Hedgeman participated in and led some of the 20th century's most important 9780190248598 developments, including advances in education, public health, politics, and workplace 0190248599 justice. Simultaneously a dignified woman and scrappy freedom fighter, Hedgeman's life Pub Date: 2/2/2016 upends conventional understandings of many aspects of the civil rights and feminist $34.95 Discount Code: 1A movements. She worked as a teacher, lobbyist, politician, social worker, and activist, Hardcover often crafting and implementing policy behind the scenes. Although she repeatedly found herself a woman among men, a black American among whites, and a secular 368 Pages 16 illus. Christian among clergy, she maintained her conflicting identities and worked alongside History / United States others to forge a common humanity. HIS036060 6.1 in | 9.3 in From helping black and Puerto Rican Americans achieve critical civil service employment Status:UNSPECIFIED in New York City during the Great Depression to orchestrating white religious Americans' participation in the 1963 March on Washington, Hedgeman's contributions transcend gender, racial, and religious boundaries.

In Strategy: A History, Sir Lawrence Freedman, one of the world's leading authorities on war and international politics, captures the vast history of strategic thinking, in a consistently engaging and insightful account of how strategy came to pervade every Oxford University Press aspect of our lives. 9780190229238 0190229233 Pub Date: 9/1/2015 The range of Freedman's narrative is extraordinary, moving from the surprisingly $24.95/$27.50 Can. advanced strategy practiced in primate groups, to the opposing strategies of Achilles Discount Code: 03 and Odysseus in The Iliad, the strategic advice of Sun Tzu and Machiavelli, the great Paperback military innovations of Baron Henri de Jomini and Carl von Clausewitz, the grounding of 768 Pages revolutionary strategy in class struggles by Marx, the insights into corporate strategy Political Science / History & found in Peter Drucker and Alfred Sloan, and the contributions of the leading social Theory scientists working on strategy today. The core issue at the heart of strategy, the POL010000 author notes, is whether it is possible to manipulate and shape our environment rather 6.1 in | 9.3 in than simply become the victim of forces beyond one's control. Time and again, Status:UNSPECIFIED Freedman demonstrates that the inherent unpredictability of this environment­subject to chance events, the efforts of opponents, the missteps of friends­provides strategy with its challenge and its drama. Armies or corporations or nations rarely move from one predictable state of affairs to another, but instead feel their way through a series of states, each one not quite what was anticipated, requiring a reappraisal of the original strategy, including its ultimate objective. Thus the picture of strategy that emerges in this book is one that is fluid and flexible, governed by the starting point, not the end point.

A brilliant overview of the most prominent strategic theories in history, from David's use of deception against Goliath, to the modern use of game theory in economics, this masterful volume sums up a lifetime of reflection on strategy. Contributor Bio

Lawrence Freedman has been Professor of War Studies at King's College London since 1982, and Vice­Principal since 2003. Elected a Fellow of the British Academy in 1995 and awarded the CBE in 1996, he was appointed Official Historian of the Falklands Campaign in 1997. He was awarded the KCMG in 2003. In June 2009 he was appointed to serve as a member of the official inquiry into Britain and the 2003 Iraq War. Professor Freedman has written extensively on nuclear strategy and the cold war, as well as commentating regularly on contemporary security issues. His most recent book, A Choice of Enemies: America Confronts the Middle East, won the 2009 Lionel Gelber Prize and Duke of Westminster Medal for Military Literature. Quotes

"[Freedman's] books manage to delight the experts yet are still comprehensible to the general reader, a rare skill in this genre. On this occasion, he has produced what is arguably the best book ever written on strategy." ­­Washington Post "Magisterial... wide­ranging erudition and densely packed argument." ­­The Economist "This is a book of startling scope, erudition and, more than anything, wisdom." ­­ Financial Times "Comprehensive, vigorous survey of strategy and its evolution...A lucid text that raises questions while answering others­­of great value to planners, whether of an advertising campaign or a military one." ­­Kirkus Reviews "Sir Lawrence Freedman's 750­page magnum opus, Strategy: A History, is encyclopedic, although not alphabetical, a pleasure to dip into here and there...There are grand strategies set forth in several of the greater works covered by Freedman, but Strategy: A History holds the reader to the strategic level, a subset of grand strategy." ­­New Criterion "Strategy: A History is easily the most ambitious book that I have read in many years... With a book of this scope anybody can find something to disagree with but nobody can come away from this book without feeling enriched and intellectually challenged. It will live on as a classic. " ­­Mark Stout, War on the Rocks "Strategy: A History, is an ambitious and sprawling book by a British military historian who has written widely, and very well, about nuclear and cold war strategy, the Falklands War, and contemporary military affairs, among other subjects... With admirable candor, Freedman tells us that he received the contract for this book in (gulp!) 1994, and that he made a 'number of false starts' with the manuscript. Considering the daunting scope of the subject, this is entirely understandable. Considering the wisdom and analytical brilliance he brings to bear on that subject, it's been well worth the wait." ­­The Daily Beast "Tour de force... Unusually thoughtful and clearly written, Freedman's dense tome is a serious academic study in political theory, but it has crossover potential and will attract readers interested in military planning, strategic systems, and the nature of power." ­­ Publishers Weekly starred review "A vast exploration of strategy... full of surprises, and marked by unsurpassed erudition. It also is witty and reminds us that he in the world who knows most about strategy may be the one who is the most unimpressed with it."­­National Review "An erudite, encyclopedic study that will surely become a standard reference in the discipline." ­­strategy + business "A fascinating review of the tools available to all of us to create agile, informed and interesting decisions." ­­Sheridan Jobbins, the World Economic Forum blog "Lawrence Freedman shows here why he is justly renowned as one of the world's leading thinkers about strategy, which he defines as the central art of getting more out of a situation than the starting balance of power would suggest." ­­Joseph S. Nye, Jr., Harvard University and author of The Future of Power "A marvelous grand tour of the meaning, implications, and consequences of strategic thinking through the ages and in multiple contexts. Freedman is a master of the subject and unsurpassed in his ability to unravel the twists and turns of strategic complexities and paradoxes." ­­Robert Jervis, Adlai E. Stevenson Professor of International Politics, Columbia University "This is a wonderful book­­a comprehensive yet deeply considered summation of the very nature of strategy by the premier social scientist of the subject. Strategy: A History is lucid and dispassionate, sometimes rueful, often ironic, always informative." ­­ Philip Bobbitt, author of The Shield of Achilles: War, Peace and the Course of History "This substantial, comprehensive, hermeneutic work examines the various dimensions and history of "strategy," which Freedman defines as "the art of creating power"...this very ambitious exploration provides readers with a useful introduction to the field of strategic studies." ­­CHOICE Marketing Plans • Print Advertising • Online Advertising • National Media Campaign targeting print, online, radio, and television coverage • Social Media Outreach • Online Promotion • Email Campaign • Social Media Promotion • Content Marketing Table Of Contents

The goods were kept in a secure room under constant scrutiny, deep inside a crowded building with guards at the exits. The team picked for the job included two old hands known only as Paul and Swede, but all depended on a fresh face, a kid from Pinetown, North Carolina. In the Depression, some were willing to try anything ­­ even a heist in the rare book room of the New York Public Library.

In Thieves of Book Row, Travis McDade tells the gripping tale of the worst book­theft ring in American history, and the intrepid detective who brought it down. Author of The Oxford University Press 9780190239718 Book Thief and a curator of rare books, McDade transforms painstaking research into a 0190239719 rich portrait of Manhattan's Book Row in the 1920s and '30s, where organized crime met Pub Date: 9/1/2015 America's cultural treasures in dark and crowded shops along gritty Fourth Avenue. $19.95/$21.95 Can.

Travis McDade is the author of The Book Thief: The True Crimes of Daniel Spiegelman and the curator of rare books at the University of Illinois College of Law. He teaches a class at the University of Illinois called "Rare Books, Crime & Punishment." Quotes

"Thieves is an engaging cat­and­mouse account of porous libraries, scouts armed with 'gall, confidence, and oversized coats,' complicit salesmen and of G. William Bergquist, the dogged New York Public Library investigator who cracked the gang's most audacious caper: the theft in 1931 of first editions of The Scarlet Letter, Moby­Dick and a rare Edgar Allan Poe collection."­­New York Times "McDade does a superb job of drawing a complete picture of the environment in which the Romm Gang operated. McDade makes a smart choice to spin his tale around the mostly forgotten individuals who participated in a widespread scheme to steal library books." ­­Los Angeles Times "McDade's account is a better­informed account of [thief Harry] Gold than those in other sometimes misty­eyed and less hard­nosed portraits of Book Row. By concentrating on just a few men, McDade not only avoids many pitfalls in writing about the trade more generally, but also manages to bring this tale chronologically to a conclusion. It is not a very satisfactory conclusion, for this book raises larger questions: pointing a moral as well as adorning a tale."­­Times Literary Supplement "Definitive history... a fantastically colorful cast of characters and rich period detail will hook book lovers and historians of N.Y.C"­­Publishers Weekly "A compelling history. Rich in characterization and vividly set, this tale of Manhattan's Fourth Avenue, known then as 'Book Row,' and its bookleggers makes for grand reading." ­­Library Journal "With wit, erudition, and a nice sense of timing, McDade recreates the seamy side of the antiquarian book business in Depression­era New York and Boston. This immensely engaging story will appeal to cultural historians, literary scholars, bibliophiles, and true­ crime lovers alike."­­Joan Shelley Rubin, Professor of History, University of Rochester and author of Songs of Ourselves: The Uses of Poetry in America

"Thieves of Book Row chronicles a fascinating chapter in the history of the book trade, libraries, and organized crime. In a highly engaging narrative, McDade provides a wonderful portrait of books stolen and recovered and of many colorful characters ranging from rare book legends to petty thieves."­­Thomas Hyry, Director of Special Collections, UCLA Library

Key Selling Points • Proposes a radical new theory of consciousness • Offers a specific scientific answer to a problem long thought insoluble • Addresses both lay readers and the scientific community • Covers controversial issues including religion, , and artificial intelligence Summary What is consciousness and how can a brain, a mere collection of neurons, create it? In Consciousness and the Social Brain, Princeton neuroscientist Michael Graziano lays out an audacious new theory to account for the deepest mystery of them all. The human brain has evolved a complex circuitry that allows it to be socially intelligent. This social machinery has only just begun to be studied in detail. One function of this circuitry is to attribute awareness to others: to compute that person Y is aware of thing X. In Graziano's theory, the machinery that attributes awareness to others also attributes it to oneself. Damage that machinery and you disrupt your own awareness. Graziano discusses the science, the evidence, the philosophy, and the surprising implications of this new theory. Now in an affordable paperback edition!

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Roosevelt's Second Act The Election of 1940 and the Politics of War Richard Moe

Key Selling Points • Very little has been written in depth about this period, and especially the 1940 election • Author Richard Moe served as Chief of Staff to Vice Prresident Walter Mondale and was a member of President Carter's senior staff • Based on meticulous research that unearthed material which has been virtually ignored by previous historians Summary "In Roosevelt's Second Act Richard Moe has shown in superb fashion that what might seem to have been an inevitable decision of comparatively little interest was far from it." ­­David McCullough

On August 31, 1939, nearing the end of his second and presumably final term in office, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was working in the Oval Office and contemplating construction of his presidential library and planning retirement. The next day German Oxford University Press tanks had crossed the Polish border; Britain and France had declared war. Overnight the 9780190266288 0190266287 world had changed, and FDR found himself being forced to consider a dramatically Pub Date: 9/1/2015 different set of circumstances. $16.95 Discount Code: 1A In Roosevelt's Second Act, Richard Moe focuses on a turning point in American political Paperback history: FDR's decision to seek a third term. Often overlooked between the passage and 392 Pages implementation of the New Deal and the bombing of Pearl Harbor, that decision was far 28 illus. from inevitable. As the election loomed, he refused to comment, confiding in no one, History / United States scrambling the politics of his own party; but after the Republicans surprisingly nominated HIS036060 Series: Pivotal Moments in Wendell Willkie in July 1940, FDR became convinced that no other Democrat could both American History maintain the legitimacy of the New Deal and mobilize the nation for war. With Hitler on 8.2 in W | 5.5 in H | 1.1 in T the verge of conquering Europe, Roosevelt, still hedging, began to maneuver his way to Status:UNSPECIFIED the center of the political stage.

Moe offers a brilliant depiction of the duality that was FDR: the bold, perceptive, prescient and moral statesman who set lofty and principled goals, and the sometimes cautious, ambitious, arrogant and manipulative politician in pursuit of them. Immersive, insightful and written with an insider's understanding of the presidency, this book challenges and illuminates our understanding of FDR and this pivotal moment in American history. Contributor Bio

Richard Moe was president of the National Trust for Historic Preservation from 1993­ 2010, chief of staff to Vice President Walter Mondale, and served on President Jimmy Carter's senior staff. His books include The Last Full Measure: The Life and Death of the First Minnesota Volunteers and Changing Places: Rebuilding Community in the Age of Sprawl. He lives in Washington, D.C. and Santa Fe, New Mexico. Quotes

"In Roosevelt's Second Act Richard Moe has shown in superb fashion that what might seem to have been an inevitable decision of comparatively little interest was far from it. But then what could possibly be predictable or uninteresting about such a famously unfathomable protagonist? And what a cast of characters! Moe's long, personal experience in Washington politics, combined with his marked skill as an historian, make this a consistently illuminating reminder that history is above all human, and seldom more so than behind the scenes at a turning point of such importance. " ­­David McCullough

"Richard Moe's excellent book reminds us of what great leadership looks like. His beautifully written account of FDR's run for a third term and America's decisive move toward involvement in World War II will stand as the definitive study of this landmark election and a turning point in the country's history." ­­Robert Dallek

"Trying to understand and explain the complexities of Franklin D. Roosevelt's mind is a daunting task for any historian. Richard Moe is clearly up to the challenge in his fascinating, revelatory account of FDR's fateful decision to run for a third term in 1940, in the midst of the greatest crisis the world has ever faced. Filled with drama and excitement, Roosevelt's Second Act is particularly compelling in its depiction of how two women ­­ Eleanor Roosevelt and Frances Perkins ­­ rescued the president from a political fiasco that could have irrevocably altered history." ­­Lynne Olson, author of Citizens of London and Those Angry Days

"A carefully focused and researched analysis that adds considerably to the historical record." ­­Kirkus Reviews, starred review "Roosevelt's Second Act tells the story of a weary president's fateful decision to heed the call of duty in our nation's ­­ and the world's ­­ most perilous hour. Richard Moe's take on an epic tale is deftly­crafted, persuasive in analyzing people and power, and highly relevant to the struggles of our own era; a superb work of living history." ­­ Madeleine Albright "Most accounts of the Age of Franklin Delano Roosevelt halt with the erosion of the New Deal in 1938 and then lurch forward after Pearl Harbor in 1941. One moment the reader is immersed in Harry Hopkins, the next in Winston Churchill three years later. In this lively, fast­paced tale of the 1940 campaign when FDR sought to break the taboo against serving more than two terms, Richard Moe invites his readers to reflect on a seminal year when the two periods merged. That year, he shows lucidly, America crossed the divide from isolation to irrevocable international commitment, and magnified the authority of the president, then and ever more, in his new role as commander­in­ chief of the most powerful empire on earth." ­­William E. Leuchtenburg, author of In the Shadow of FDR: From Harry Truman to Barack Obama "[Roosevelt's Second Act] tells us as much about the American system of politics as any book I've ever read . . . [a] masterful account of why and how FDR overcame his reluctance to seek reelection." ­­Huffington Post

"[A] compelling read. Roosevelt's Second Act: The Election of 1940 and the Politics of War is a superbly reconstructed chronology of the 1940 campaign." ­­Washington Monthly

Key Selling Points • A brilliant and colorful history of the downfall of the American musical • Offers an inside account of the making of lavish musicals in the late 1960s and early 1970s, from stars to cost overruns • Situates the musical and the roadshow­­an event­based promotional program­­in the decade's revolutionary cultural changes Summary Full­page newspaper ads announced the date. Reserved seats went on sale at premium prices. Audience members dressed up and arrived early to peruse the program during the overture that preceded the curtain's rise. And when the show began, it was­­a rather disappointing film musical.

In Roadshow!, film historian Matthew Kennedy tells the fascinating story of the downfall of the big­screen musical in the late 1960s. It is a tale of revolutionary cultural change, business transformation, and artistic missteps, all of which led to the obsolescence of the roadshow, a marketing extravaganza designed to make a movie opening in a regional Oxford University Press city seem like a Broadway premier. Ironically, the Hollywood musical suffered from 9780190262440 unexpected success. Facing doom after its bygone heyday, it suddenly broke box­office 0190262443 Pub Date: 10/1/2015 records with three rapid­fire successes in 1964 and 1965: Mary Poppins, My Fair Lady, $24.95 and The Sound of Music. Studios rushed to catch the wave, but everything went Discount Code: 1A wrong. Kennedy takes readers inside the making of such movies as Hello, Dolly! and Man Paperback of La Mancha, showing how corporate management imposed financial pressures that led 320 Pages to poor artistic decisions­for example, the casting of established stars regardless of 25 photographs vocal or dancing talent (such as Clint Eastwood in Paint Your Wagon). And Kennedy Music / Genres & Styles explores the impact of profound social, political, and cultural change. The traditional­ MUS046000 sounding Camelot and Doctor Dolittle were released in the same year as Sergeant 6.1 in | 9.3 in Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, representing a vast gulf in taste. The artifice of Status:UNSPECIFIED musicals seemed outdated to baby boomers who grew up with the Cuban missile crisis, the Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. assassinations, race riots, and the Vietnam War.

From Julie Andrews to Barbra Streisand, from Fred Astaire to Rock Hudson, Roadshow! offers a brilliant, gripping history of film musicals and their changing place in our culture. Contributor Bio

Matthew Kennedy is a writer, film historian, and anthropologist. His books include three biographies of classic Hollywood figures: Marie Dressler, Edmund Goulding's Dark Victory, and Joan Blondell. He lives in San Francisco. Quotes

"Everyone who loves the films of Fred Astaire, Judy Garland, and Gene Kelly wonders what happened to movie musicals after the 1960s. Roadshow! is an extensively researched and engagingly written account of the demise of musical film during those decades of tumultuous cultural upheaval." ­­Philip Furia, co­author of The Songs of Hollywood "High of budget and misplaced of ambition, roadshow musicals define an arresting­­and quite troubling­­moment in the history of film. With meticulous research and a suitably critical eye, Matthew Kennedy details the plunge from feast to famine, from bounty to bankruptcy, from The Sound of Music to Song of Norway." ­Richard Barrios, author of A Song in the Dark: The Birth of Musical Film "Matthew Kennedy has written a colorful, entertaining and well­researched history of the Hollywood musical's greatest moment of crisis. This book helps to fill an important gap in our understanding of the postwar American film industry." ­­Sheldon Hall, Senior Lecturer in Stage and Screen, Sheffield Hallam University "Hugely entertaining...the author's research is impeccable, his story fascinating and his writing lively." ­ Booklist

"In Matthew Kennedy's zesty, detailed investigation...we see one of America's most vital art forms implode so badly that it all but dies out...Yet the book does not read as a funeral. Mr. Kennedy writes with a sense of humor, opening up the bizarre backstage of these events." ­ Ethan Mordden, The Wall Street Journal

"'What were they thinking' is the subtext of virtually every page in Matthew Kennedy's informative history of the Hollywood roadshow...Kennedy's wincingly detailed chronicle of out­of control spending and egos makes it clear that many of the musicals he focuses on deserved to die, but he doesn't think the roadshow itself deserved to go with them." ­ Wendy Smith, The Washington Post

"Film historian Kennedy, in an erudite yet fetchingly entertaining style, traces the demise of ostentatious budget­busting Hollywood musicals...Kennedy juxtaposes the over­the­top theatricality and artifice inherent in these productions with the tumultuous societal and artistically discordant developments in the late Sixties EL some of the numerous stories, quotes, and anecdotes he excavates from production records and archives are priceless." ­Library Journal

"It's compulsively readable candy for movie buffs...It is with considerable relish, flashes of dry wit, dead­on personal opinion, well­placed ironic asides, and impressively extensive research that Kennedy details the presumed aesthetic qualities and the production histories of all these movies." ­ John Karr, Bay Area Reporter

"It's a hilarious, gossipy, but ultimately serious look at how the humongously successful musicals of 1964­65 caused Hollywood to lose its mind." ­ Jim Farber, New York Daily News

"Roadshow! recalls an important but forgotten piece of movie history, and it is also packed with juicy gossip involving the personalities who worked on the mega­ musicals...Kennedy mixes exhaustive research with sharp analytical skills for a very tasty read." ­ Joe Myers, Connecticut Media Group

"Much more than an entertaining foray into the rise and fall of a distinctly American art form, Roadshow! is an insightful and often discerning look at who we once were and how our values, priorities and tastes evolved during the turbulent decade of the 1960s. Indeed, social commentary is infused throughout the book in a way that brings the historical significance of musicals into sharp focus...Roadshow! provides a complete course in the cultural transformation that took place during this revolutionary period in our nation's history." ­ Aaron W.

Even though I'd read a handful of these papers before, there were some that I was unaware of that are gems. Even those I'd read before, I re­read, and got even more on the second reading." ­­ David Buss, author of Evolutionary Psychology: The New Science of the Mind

"With wit and acumen, Pinker introduces us to some of his most important scientific contributions. These glimpses into the development of these foundational articles and of course the articles themselves will be of great interest to academics and to his many fans beyond the walls of academia." ­­ David C. Geary, author of Male, Female: The Evolution of Human Sex Difference

"Pinker is a rarity among academic psychologists not only as a stylish writer, but also as a profound thinker with an ability to grasp the major issues of human nature and human evolution. Language, Cognition, and Human Nature: Selected Articles is as good an introduction as any into the range and depth of his thinking and will have general appeal beyond an academic readership." ­Michael Corballis, PsycCRITIQUES Marketing Plans • Online Promotion • Social Media Campaign • Email Promotion Table Of Contents

Key Selling Points • The full story of the Anglo­American intelligence relationship ­ now told for the first time • Takes the story from the beginnings of the relationship during World War One, through to the new realities of the post­9/11 world • Based on in­depth interviews with an unrivalled range of intelligence officials from the USA, the UK, France, and other EU countries • Looks not just at the history of the 'special intelligence relationship' between the two countries, but also at the options that face them in the 21st century Summary In Spies We Trust reveals the full story of the Anglo­American intelligence relationship ­ ranging from the deceits of World War I to the mendacities of 9/11 ­ for the first time.

Why did we ever start trusting spies? It all started a hundred years ago. First we put our faith in them to help win wars, then we turned against the bloodshed and expense, and asked our spies instead to deliver peace and security. By the end of World War II, Oxford University Press Britain and America were cooperating effectively to that end.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Marriage Markets How Inequality is Remaking the American Family June Carbone, Naomi Cahn

Key Selling Points • Presents a provocative yet persuasive argument drawn from original research that ties together sociology, economics, politics, law, and policy • Exposes the inadequacy of common explanations for a shift in the American family • Explains the way that the law increases fathers' rights for well off men while making it more difficult for poorer men to have contact with their children • Written by well­known experts on the subject Summary There was a time when the phrase "American family" conjured up a single, specific image: a breadwinner dad, a homemaker mom, and their 2.5 kids living comfortable lives in a middle­class suburb. Today, that image has been shattered, due in part to skyrocketing divorce rates, single parenthood, and increased out­of­wedlock births. But whether it is conservatives bewailing the wages of moral decline and women's liberation, or progressives celebrating the result of women's greater freedom and changing sexual mores, most Americans fail to identify the root factor driving the changes: economic inequality that is remaking the American family along class lines. Oxford University Press 9780190263317 0190263318 In Marriage Markets, June Carbone and Naomi Cahn examine how macroeconomic forces Pub Date: 11/1/2015 are transforming our most intimate and important spheres, and how working class and $19.95 lower income families have paid the highest price. Just like health, education, and Discount Code: 1A seemingly every other advantage in life, a stable two­parent home has become a luxury Paperback that only the well­off can afford. The best educated and most prosperous have the 272 Pages most stable families, while working class families have seen the greatest increase in Law / Family Law relationship instability. LAW038030

6.1 in | 9.3 in Why is this so? The book provides the answer: greater economic inequality has Status:UNSPECIFIED profoundly changed marriage markets, the way men and women match up when they search for a life partner. It has produced a larger group of high­income men than women; written off the men at the bottom because of chronic unemployment, incarceration, and substance abuse; and left a larger group of women with a smaller group of comparable men in the middle. The failure to see marriage as a market affected by supply and demand has obscured any meaningful analysis of the way that societal changes influence culture. Only policies that redress the balance between men and women through greater access to education, stable employment, and opportunities for social mobility can produce a culture that encourages commitment and investment in family life.

A rigorous and enlightening account of why American families have changed so much in recent decades, Marriage Markets cuts through the ideological and moralistic rhetoric that drives our current debate.

"Marriage Markets answers some of the most critical questions our society faces: what is happening to our families and what is happening to our economy? Why is the country growing apart economically at the same time some families are disintegrating? For those interested in these questions, the authors provide fresh analysis, new ideas and a path forward. This is an important book that should guide not only what we think about rising inequality but what we do about it."­Neera Tanden, President, Center for American Progress

"A new kind of class chasm is opening in America, one defined not by money but by a widening gap between marital haves and have­nots. You can't understand where our country is headed, the changing nature of inequality, and why poor and working­class kids are losing out without reading this book. It's that simple."­Jonathan Rauch, Brookings Institution

"Professors Carbone and Cahn have a knack for taking mountains of data from a wide variety of sources, distilling it into readable text, and developing unique theories that fit."­Margaret Brinig, Fritz Duda Family Chair in Law, Notre Dame Law School

"Marriage is a political lightning rod, attracting the energy of both the left and right in the United States, but the energy released often provides more heat than light. Without examining marriage in the context of inequality, there is little hope of understanding where we've been, where we're headed, and what policy and the law can do to help those most vulnerable to the disruption, deprivation and dispossession that make life difficult for so many American families. In providing that context­with lucid prose and in­ depth analysis­Carbone and Cahn provide a rich contribution to the debate over the past and future of marriage."­Philip N. Cohen, Professor of Sociology, University of Maryland, College Park

"A brutally realistic account of what wealth inequality has done to the American family. Diverse social practices­hook­up culture, college debt, women's economic advances­ have resulted in stunningly class­based family patterns: little marriage at the bottom and hunky­dory arrangements at the top. The authors take on in concrete detail how family law must take account of the new structures of intimate life."­Carol Sanger, Barbara Aronstein Professor of Law, Columbia Law School

"A crisp and cogent account ­ rich with detail and utterly free of legalese ­ of America's failure to invest in its children." ­ New York Times

"Marriage Markets is a book worth reading, pondering and discussing." ­Maggie Gallagher "Marriage Markets is an important book for lawyers, sociologists, and anyone who cares about families in an era of increasing inequality." ­Nancy Levit, University of Missouri­ Kansas City School of Law, Concurring Opinions "Along with the highly structured cost­benefit analysis of marriage for different economic groups, Carbone and Cahn present an interesting analysis of how family law has institutionalized the realities of the 21st­century workforce." ­Publishers Weekly "Just like health, education, and seemingly every other advantage in life, a stable two­ parent home has become a luxury that only the well­off can afford. The best educated and most prosperous have the most stable families, while working class families have seen the greatest increase in relationship instability. Why is this so? The book provides the answer" ­Elm Street Books "This is the sort of book that reminds me why I became a sociologist (now lapsed). Carbone and Cahn, a couple of law professors, draw on a wide body of sociological literature to explain how trends in economic inequality and changing family formation patterns reinforce each other." ­Joshua Kim, Inside Higher Ed "As June Carbone and Naomi Cahn demonstrate with exceptional rigor, clarity, and elegance, the white picket fences of this mythical family have been swept away by a series of economic, social, and cultural shifts that have altered the 'gender bargain' at the core of the traditional family." ­Jennifer M.

Key Selling Points • Engages with the numerous representations of Helen throughout the sum of ancient Greek literature Summary Ancient Greek culture is pervaded by a profound ambivalence regarding female beauty. It is an awe­inspiring, supremely desirable gift from the gods, essential to the perpetuation of a man's name through reproduction; yet it also grants women terrifying power over men, posing a threat inseparable from its allure. The myth of Helen is the central site in which the ancient Greeks expressed and reworked their culture's anxieties about erotic desire. Despite the passage of three millennia, contemporary culture remains almost obsessively preoccupied with all the power and danger of female beauty and sexuality that Helen still represents. Yet Helen, the embodiment of these concerns for our purported cultural ancestors, has been little studied from this perspective. Such issues are also central to contemporary feminist thought.

Helen of Troy engages with the ancient origins of the persistent anxiety about female Oxford University Press beauty, focusing on this key figure from ancient Greek culture in a way that both 9780190263539 extends our understanding of that culture and provides a useful perspective for 0190263539 Pub Date: 11/1/2015 reconsidering aspects of our own.

In addition to literary sources, Blondell considers the Paperback archaeological record, which contains evidence of Helen's role as a cult figure, 320 Pages worshipped by maidens and newlyweds.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog  Reproductive States Global Perspectives on the Invention and Implementation of Population Policy Rickie Solinger, Mie Nakachi

Key Selling Points • The first volume to survey population policies from key countries on five continents and to interweave gender politics • Illuminates how nations crafted their own policies and practices regarding population policy • Provides global perspective on the issue of reproductive politics Summary When it comes to government's role in personal matters such as family planning, most bristle at any interference from the State on how to exercise their reproductive rights. China's infamous "one child" policy is a well­known example of reproductive politics, but history is filled with other examples of governmental population control to advance its interests. Reproductive States is the first volume of a collection of case studies that explores when and how some of the most populous countries in the world invented and implemented state population policies in the 20th century.

The authors, scholars specializing in reproductive politics, survey population policies Oxford University Press from key countries on five continents to provide a global perspective. Regardless of the 9780199311088 type of government or its cultural history, many of these countries have developed 0199311080 Pub Date: 1/4/2016 similar policies to control their populations and attempt to combat social problems such $24.95 as poverty and hunger. However, the common denominator is that states have used Discount Code: 1A women's bodies as a political resource. Paperback 384 Pages Far from being just an overseas problem, this volume illustrates how other countries Political Science / Geopolitics have developed their strategies in response to goals and tactics driven by the United POL062000 Nations and the United States. Due to fears of a post­World War II "population bomb" 6.1 in | 9.3 in and uncertainty of how to deal with the world's poor after the Cold War, the U.S. and Status:UNSPECIFIED the Soviet Union led the charge among nations to devise strategies to control their populations, but in different ways. The U.S. and some European countries pressed the poor and ethnic minorities to limit reproduction. China's "one child" policy targeted all ranks of society, while Soviet women (who already had few rights) were under surveillance through state­planned services such as medical care and commodity distribution to detect pregnancy.

Interweaving biopolitics, gender studies, statecraft, and world systems, Reproductive States offer reflections on the outcome of such policies and their legacies in our day. Contributor Bio

Key Selling Points • Brings together the history of suburbanization and urban decline & revival in a single book for the first time, providing an unparalleled synthesis of leading cross­disciplinary scholarship in urban history and urban planning • Lays out the first comprehensive political strategy for the New Urbanist movement • Analyzes sprawl as the outcome of social and political forces, not just bad planning • A new explanation of "not­in­my­backyard" politics, as motivated by status­seeking and protection of neighborhood "brand images" • Offers a wide­ranging historical overview, an analysis of contemporary planning, and suggestions for how to effect change in the modern age Summary More than five decades have passed since Jane Jacobs wrote her classic The Death and Life of Great American Cities, and since a front page headline in the New York Times read, "Cars Choking Cities as 'Urban Sprawl' Takes Over." Yet sprawl persists, and not by mistake. It happens for a reason.

Oxford University Press As an activist and a scholar, Benjamin Ross is uniquely placed to diagnose why this is 9780190263300 so.

Ross finds that sprawl is much Discount Code: 1A more than bad architecture and sloppy planning. Its roots are historical, sociological, Paperback and economic. He uses these insights to lay out a practical strategy for change, honed 256 Pages by his experience leading the largest grass­roots mass transit advocacy organization in Social Science / Sociology the United States. The problems of smart growth, sustainability, transportation, and SOC026030 affordable housing, he argues, are intertwined and must be solved as a whole.

Dead End is, ultimately, about the places where we live our lives. Both an engaging history of suburbia and an invaluable guide for today's urbanist, it will serve as a primer for anyone interested in how Americans actually live. Contributor Bio

He is a consultant on environmental problems and served on committees of the National Academy of Sciences and EPA Science Advisory Board. He writes frequently on political and social topics in Dissent Magazine and is the author of The Polluters: The Making of Our Chemically Altered Environment. Quotes

"I've studied a lot of books on New Urbanism. Every once and a long while one of them opens my eyes to an entirely new way of thinking. Such is Dead End." ­­Robert Steuteville, Better! Cities & Towns

"Ben Ross' Dead End is a highly personal account of a larger journey that we are embarked on as a nation ­­ from sprawl to walkable communities, from anoxic, sterile neighborhoods to vibrant, transit­served urban areas that are the wellspring of innovation, economic development and cultural richness." ­­John Porcari, Former Deputy Secretary, United States Department of Transportation

"Ben Ross paints the big picture of the battle between sprawl and community from the historic perspective, to the current conflicts to a vision of better land use process. Always focused on the human perspective with subjects as diverse as Jane Jacobs and Pete Seeger to Snob Zoning and Agenda 21, Dead End is an exciting, easy read." ­­ Parris N. Glendening, President, Smart Growth America's Leadership Institute, and former Governor of Maryland (1995­2003) "This impressively researched and documented history explains the huge pressures for maintaining a status quo that supports sprawl and is unfriendly to walkable cities. Ross argues convincingly that rail transit is 'the political and mental key that opens the door to urban change.'" ­­Ross Capon, President & CEO, National Association of Railroad Passengers "...exceedingly readable and thoroughly engaging. This fantastic book effectively channels the spirit of Jane Jacobs in both erudition and dedication to the life of cities in the US.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog The System Worked How the World Stopped Another Great Depression Daniel W. Drezner

Key Selling Points • A controversial argument that refutes one of the most commonly accepted narratives about the financial crisis • Strong use of empirical evidence • Global analysis that broadens the discussion beyond the woes of the "core nations," taking into account the remarkable resilience of developing nations Summary International institutions, from the International Monetary Fund to the International Olympic Committee, are perceived as bastions of sclerotic mediocrity at best and outright corruption at worst, and this perception is generally not far off the mark. In the wake of the 2008 financial crash, Daniel W. Drezner, like so many others, looked at the smoking ruins of the global economy and wondered why global economic governance structure had failed so spectacularly, and what could be done to reform them in the future. But then a funny thing happened. As he surveyed their actions in the wake of the crash, he realized that the evidence pointed to the exact opposite conclusion: global economic governance had succeeded. Oxford University Press 9780190263393 In The System Worked, Drezner, a renowned political scientist and international 0190263393 Pub Date: 1/1/2016 relations expert, contends that despite the massive scale and reverberations of this $19.95/$21.95 Can. latest crisis (larger, arguably, than those that precipitated the Great Depression), the Discount Code: 03 global economy has bounced back remarkably well. Examining the major resuscitation Paperback efforts by the G­20 IMF, WTO, and other institutions, he shows that, thanks to the 288 Pages efforts of central bankers and other policymakers, the international response was Political Science / Geopolitics sufficiently coordinated to prevent the crisis from becoming a full­fledged depression. POL062000 Yet the narrative about the failure of multilateral economic institutions persists, both 6.1 in | 9.3 in because the Great Recession affected powerful nations whose governments managed Status:UNSPECIFIED their own economies poorly, and because the most influential policy analysts who write the books and articles on the crisis hail from those nations. Nevertheless, Drezner argues, while it's true that the global economy is still fragile, these institutions survived the "stress test" of the financial crisis, and may have even become more resilient and valuable in the process.

Bucking the conventional wisdom about the new "G­Zero World," Drezner rehabilitates the image of the much­maligned international institutions and demolishes some of the most dangerous myths about the financial crisis. The System Worked is a vital contribution to our understanding of an area where the stakes could not be higher. Contributor Bio

Daniel W. Drezner is professor of International Politics at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University, a nonresident senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. He has previously held positions with Civic Education Project, the RAND Corporation, and the U.S. Department of the Treasury. He is the author of four previous books, most recently Theories of International Politics and Zombies. Quotes

"If you find yourself disagreeing with Drezner, you need to take a good hard look at yourself and what you are doing with your life... this detailed, knowledgeable and cogent book is required reading for everyone in the global governance field ­­ and anyone who wants to know how, bad though things have been since the global financial crisis, they might have been a hell of a lot worse." ­­Alan Beattie, Financial Times "Most analyses of the way in which countries work together to tackle international problems conclude with scathing and often justified critiques. In this original and well­ written book Daniel Drezner shows how in the recent financial crisis, 'the system worked.' This book is full of surprising insights and important policy ideas." ­­Moisés Naím, Scholar, Carnegie and author of The End of Power "Is today's global system of economic governance broken? The overwhelming consensus among experts and pundits, writing in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, is that it is... In this astute and sharply argued book, Daniel Drezner begs to differ. In a detailed survey of international responses to the Great Recession, Drezner makes a convincing case that global institutions­­the G20, IMF, WTO, and IMF­­actually do still facilitate international cooperation and problem solving... Drezner does not argue that global governance is perfect, but he nicely shows that, contrary to the pessimists, there still is life in the liberal world order." ­­G. John Ikenberry, Albert G. Milbank Professor of Politics and International Affairs, Princeton University "This new and excellent book by Daniel Drezner provides the best take on what we did right and why the world did not fall into a global great depression." ­­Tyler Cowen, Marginal Revolution "The System Worked is a smart, thoughtful, and important book that I largely disagree with... Drezner has put forward an argument to be reckoned with, and it is more important that the book find an audience among those who disagree with its conclusions." ­­Jonathan Kirsch, Boston Review "Drezner offers a thoughtful and contemporary analysis of global governing systems and their underlying politics." ­­National Journal Marketing Plans • Print Advertising • Online Advertising • Online Promotion • Email Campaign • Social Media Promotion Table Of Contents

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Europe's Angry Muslims The Revolt of The Second Generation Robert Leiken

Summary Bombings in London, riots in Paris, terrorists in Germany, fury over mosques, veils and cartoons­­such headlines underscore the tensions between Muslims and their European hosts. Did too much immigration, or too little integration, produce Muslim second­ generation anger? Is that rage imported or spawned inside Europe itself? What do the conflicts between Muslims and their European hosts portend for an America encountering its own angry Muslims? Europe's Angry Muslims traces the routes, expectations and destinies of immigrant parents and the plight of their children, transporting both the general reader and specialist from immigrants' ancestral villages to their strange new­fangled enclaves in Europe. It guides readers through Islamic nomenclature, chronicles the motive force of the Islamist narrative, offers them lively portraits of jihadists (a convict, a convert, and a community organizer) takes them inside radical mosques and into the minds of suicide bombers. The author interviews former radicals and security agents, examines court records and the sermons of radical imams and draws on a lifetime of personal experience with militant movements to present an account of the explosive fusion of Muslim immigration, Islamist grievance and second­generation alienation. Oxford University Press Robert Leiken shines an unsentimental and yet compassionate light on Islam's growing 9780190275419 0190275413 presence in the West, combining in­depth reporting with cutting­edge and far­ranging Pub Date: 11/2/2015 scholarship in an engaging narrative that is both moving and mordant.

"Brian Stewart's musings on his long career in intelligence­related work ­ ably aided by the researcher Samantha Newbery ­ have the aroma of a good whisky, well­distilled. ... Stewart takes a historical and philosophical perspective, rightly emphasising that 'good assessment is the key to good intelligence' and regretfully observing that 'it has been well said that customers sometimes use intelligence as a drunk uses a lamp post: for support, not illumination.' ... His book reads like an extended ambassadorial valedictory, as they used to be ­ and is all the better for it." ­­ The Spectator "[F]ascinating ...

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog The Audacious Ascetic What the Bin Laden Tapes Reveal About Al­Qa'ida Flagg Miller

Key Selling Points • First book to explore Bin Laden's extraordinary sound archive • Argues that much of the received wisdom about al­Qa'ida's early years has to be reconsidered in light of this new evidence. • Includes coverage of over a dozen previously never before seen speeches by Bin Laden Summary In late 2002, over 1500 audiotapes were discovered in Kandahar, Afghanistan, in a house once occupied by Osama bin Laden. The Audacious Ascetic is the first book to explore this extraordinary archive. It details how Islamic cultural, legal, theological and linguistic vocabularies shaped militants' understandings of al­Qa'ida, and, more controversially, challenges the notion that the group's original adversary was America and the 'far enemy'. Miller argues that Western security agencies' 'management' of Bin Laden's growing reputation went awry. When magnified through global media coverage, narratives of al­Qa'ida's coherence were exploited by Osama and his militant supporters for their own ends. Oxford University Press 9780190264369 0190264365 Focusing on over a dozen previously unpublished speeches by Bin Laden as well as on Pub Date: 11/1/2015 discussions by top al­Qa'ida leaders and Arab­ Afghans, Miller chronicles the Saudi $34.95/$38.50 Can. radical's evolving relationship with a host of Muslim insurgencies that found his stripe of Discount Code: 02 asceticism (zuhd) tactically useful, especially when circulated via audiotape. These Hardcover recordings also reveal militants' disenchantment when Bin Laden, marginalized through 320 Pages the '90s, began pandering to Western television networks in his attempt to direct Political Science / Political heterodox Islamist armed struggles against America. Such audio evidence exposes al­ Freedom & Security POL037000 Qa'ida's lack of coordination before 9­11 and invites scrutiny of dominant narratives of Western law enforcement, intelligence and terrorism analysts. 5.5 in | 8.5 in Status:UNSPECIFIED Contributor Bio

Flagg Miller is Professor of Religious Studies at the University of California, Davis. Trained as a linguistic anthropologist, his first book, The Moral Resonance of Arab Media: Audio­ cassette Poetry and Culture in Yemen, examined how Yemenis have used traditional poetry and new media technologies to envision a productive relationship between tribalism and progressive Muslim reform. Quotes

"With daunting thoroughness, Miller reviews bin Laden's biography, underscoring his adherence to the Islamic reform movement that supported insurgencies in authoritarian regimes within the Muslim world . . . bizarrely compelling." ­­Kirkus Reviews "This is a truly magnificent work. Flagg Miller's knowledge in Arabic is unrivalled, as is demonstrated brilliantly in every chapter of book. In fact, The Audacious Ascetic almost brings Bin Laden back from the dead. The reader will feel as though he or she is listening in real time to the audio tapes that may have shaped Bin Laden into the jihadi leader that we now know. In addition Miller analyses, from a new perspective, some of Bin Laden's early ­­ and almost forgotten ­­ speeches which gave a clear picture his aims and strategy. Highly recommended." ­­ Camille Tawil, author of Brothers in Arms: Al Qa'ida and the Arab Jihadists "Flagg Miller is a rare specialist on the Modern Middle East. I know of no other linguistic anthropologist of the Middle East who combines interests in Arabic poetics with Islamic political discourse and relates both to media and mobilisation in the Arab/Muslim world, and especially to Yemen. The Audacious Ascetic is his most extraordinary book to date, exceptional in the range and depth of its analysis of Osama bin Laden as a modern day ascetic. It should be an outrageous success in framing a figure who remains as murky as he is legendary in the saga of Islamic terrorism." ­­ Bruce Lawrence, Nancy and Jeffrey Marcus Humanities Professor of Religion, Duke University, and author of Who is Allah? "Original, detailed and important. The Audacious Ascetic captures the complex fifteen year discourse between Bin Laden and his audiences about global jihad. Flagg Miller has mined an impressive array of Osama Bin Laden's 1980s and 1990s speeches and conversations, demonstrating the durability of the ideology appropriated in building Al­ Qa'ida and Bin Laden's single­minded focus on jihad against the United States. It is an essential text for those wishing to understand Al­Qa'ida's historic essence and its continuing global relevance." ­­ Thomas F.

Key Selling Points • This history of the Crimea is essential reading for all those who have been perplexed by what lies behind Russia's recent annexation of the Black Sea peninsula. • Concise history of Crimea from its origins • At the crossroads of Europe and Asia, Crimea has a fascinating history that resonates to this day Summary In 2014 Crimea shapes the headlines much as it did some 160 years ago, when the Crimean War pitted Britain, France and Turkey against Russia. Yet few books have been published on the history of the peninsula. For many readers, Crimea seems as remote today as it was when colonized by the ancient Greeks.

Neil Kent's book recounts the history of the Crimea over three millennia. A crossroads between Europe and Asia, ships sailed to and from Crimean ports, forming a bridge that carried merchandise and transmitted ideas and innovations.

Hurst Greeks, Scythians, Tartars, Russians, Armenians and Genoese are among those who 9781849044639 settled the peninsula since antiquity, a demographic patchwork that reflects its 1849044635 geography.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Who Can Afford to Improvise? James Baldwin and Black Music, the Lyric and the Listeners Ed Pavlic

Key Selling Points • First sustained analysis of Baldwin's work in relation to African American musical forms. • Author worked extensively from private archives of Baldwin's letters and unpublished writings. Based on unprecedented access to private correspondence, unpublished manuscripts and attuned to a musically inclined poet's skill in close listening, Who Can Afford to Improvise? retraces the full arc of James Baldwin's passage across the pages and stages of his career amplifying our sense of his contemporary relevance. Summary More than a quarter­century after his death, James Baldwin remains an unparalleled figure in American literature and African American cultural politics. In Who Can Afford to Improvise? Ed Pavlic offers an unconventional, lyrical, and accessible meditation on the life, writings, and legacy of James Baldwin and their relationship to the lyric tradition in black music, from gospel and blues to jazz and R&B. Based on unprecedented access to private correspondence and unpublished manuscripts and attuned to a musically inclined poet's skill in close listening, Who Can Afford to Improvise? frames a new narrative of Fordham University Press 9780823268481 James Baldwin's work and life. 0823268489 Pub Date: 10/1/2015 Who Can Afford to Improvise? is presented in three books­­or movements; the first $29.95 listens to Baldwin, in the initial months of his most intense visibility in May 1963 and the Discount Code: 1A publication of The Fire Next Time. It introduces the key terms of his lyrical aesthetic Hardcover and identifies the shifting contours of Baldwin's career from his early work as a 320 Pages reviewer for left­leaning journals in the 1940s to his last published and unpublished 20 b/w illustrations works from the mid­1980s. Book II listens with Baldwin and ruminates on the recorded Literary Criticism / American LIT004040 performances of Billie Holiday and Dinah Washington, singers whose messages and methods were closely related to his developing worldview. It concludes with the first 6 in | 9 in Status:UNSPECIFIED detailed account of "The Hallelujah Chorus," a performance from July 1, 1973, in which Baldwin shared the stage at Carnegie Hall with Ray Charles. Finally, in Book III, Pavlic reverses our musically inflected reconsideration of Baldwin's voice, projecting it into the contemporary moment and reading its impact on everything from the music of Amy Winehouse, to the street performances of Turf Feinz, and the fire of racial oppression and militarization against black Americans in the twenty­first century.

Always with an ear close to the music, and avoiding the safe box of celebration, Who Can Afford to Improvise? enables a new kind of "lyrical travel" with the instructive clarity and the open­ended mystery Baldwin's work invokes into the world. Contributor Bio

Ed Pavlic is Professor of English and Creative Writing at the University of Georgia. Quotes

"In Who Can Afford to Improvise?, Ed Pavlic unearths James Baldwin's epic song­­one shaped and honed by sacred and popular music.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog The Routes Not Taken A Trip Through New York City's Unbuilt Subway System Joseph B. Raskin

Key Selling Points • New York City has one of the world's biggest subway systems. However, on several occasions, it looked like it would be even larger. One of the most interesting chapters in its history is the story of the tunnels and stations that were actually built for lines that were never completed. • Even before the first lines opened, there had been demands to expand the subway system. This resulted in a series of proposals for construction of new lines or expansion of existing ones. The story of the unbuilt lines is as interesting as the story of those completed. • Using research from libraries, historical societies, and transit agencies throughout the New York metropolitan area, Raskin gives a fascinating history of NYC unbuilt subway lines that has been a tantalizing story for public transit experts over the years. Now this story can be told to a wider audience including transit buffs, lovers of NYC history, and anyone intrigued by urban planning and design. Delves deep into the underbelly of the NYC subway system to reveal the tunnels and stations that might have been.

Discount Code: 03 Paperback Robert A. Van Wyck, mayor of the greater city of New York, broke ground for the first 336 Pages subway line by City Hall on March 24, 1900. It took four years, six months, and twenty­ 100 b/w illustrations three days to build the line from City Hall to West 145th Street in Harlem. Things rarely Transportation / Railroads went that quickly ever again. The Routes Not Taken explores the often dramatic TRA004010 stories behind the unbuilt or unfinished subway lines, shedding light on a significant 7 in | 10 in part of New York City's history that has been almost completely ignored until now. Status:UNSPECIFIED

Home to one of the world's largest subway systems, New York City made constant efforts to expand its underground labyrinth, efforts that were often met with unexpected obstacles: financial shortfalls, clashing agendas of mayors and borough presidents, battles with local community groups, and much more. After discovering a copy of the 1929 subway expansion map, author Joseph Raskin began his own investigation into the city's underbelly. Using research from libraries, historical societies, and transit agencies throughout the New York metropolitan area, Raskin provides a fascinating history of the Big Apple's unfinished business that until now has been only tantalizing stories retold by public­transit experts.

The Routes Not Taken sheds light on the tunnels and stations that were completed for lines that were never fulfilled: the efforts to expand the Hudson tubes into a fullfledged subway; the Flushing line, and why it never made it past Flushing; a platform underneath Brooklyn's Nevins Street station that has remained unused for more than a century; and the 2nd Avenue line long the symbol of dashed dreams deferred countless times since the original plans were presented in 1929. Raskin also reveals the figures and personalities involved, including why Fiorello LaGuardia could not grasp the importance of subway lines and why Robert Moses found them to be old and boring. By focusing on the unbuilt lines, Raskin illustrates how the existing subway system is actually a Herculean feat of countless political compromises.

Filled with illustrations of the extravagant expansion plans, The Routes Not Taken provides an enduring contribution to the transportation history of New York City. Contributor Bio

Joseph B. Raskin is an independent scholar. He is widely regarded as an authority on unbuilt subway systems, on which he has been interviewed by the New York Times. He is Assistant Director of Government and Community Relations for MTA New York City Transit. Quotes

"This is an extraordinary and magisterial book, the product of years of diligent research on a topic that has been almost completely ignored, but one central to the understanding of the evolution of New York City in the twentieth century."­­Peter Eisenstadt "The New York subway is a source of basic mobility in the world's greatest city, but there remains much to be learned about why it came to be and how it functions. Raskin has given us a book that places all of our factual and historical narratives in a much larger context what might have been, what could have been, and, perhaps, what should have been." ­­Brian J. Cudahy, A Century of Subways: Celebrating 100 Years of New York's Underground Railways "The Routes Not Taken is a fascinating look at what did not happen with the New York City subway system and why. Joseph Raskin provides detailed accounts of why several subway lines that have been long needed and desired such as one in the northeast Bronx and one across Queens and Brooklyn never got built. The stories are full of twists and turns as politicians, business interests, civic groups, transit advisors and engineers all argue over which line is needed, what the specifics of its route should be, and even if it should be done ahead of another line. The Routes Not Taken is engrossing but ultimately dispiriting. One comes away from reading Mr. Raskin's book with a sense of awe that New York City has a subway system of any kind and extent given the numerous competing forces that have cancelled each other out in the past." ­­Paul Shaw, Author of Helvetica and the New York City Subway System: The True (Maybe) Story " provide[s] an insightful look at the what­might­have­beens of urban mass transit. The first subway, the IRT from City Hall to West 145th Street, was built in four and a half years. That pace has rarely been equaled in the century since. Consider that the Second Avenue subway, the first segment of which is to open in 2016, was envisioned in 1929. Why were certain lines elevated and later demolished instead of buried? Mr. Raskin, the assistant director of government and community relations for New York City Transit, dusts off old blueprints of lines that were never built or never completed, explaining how the system shaped urban development and how political and economic forces conspired to create today's subway lines covering all five boroughs and provided for a city with a population even bigger than today's." ­­Sam Roberts, The New York Times "Joseph Raskin has opened a big can of worms with this book. He brings to light the massive number of subway lines that were planned throughout the area but stayed just that; plans and nothing more." ­­Ink New York "Using research from libraries, historical societies, and transit agencies throughout the New York metropolitan area, Raskin provides a fascinating history of the Big Apple's unfinished business that until now has been only tantalizing stories retold by public­ transit experts." ­­Western Queens Gazette, Jason D. Antos "In presenting lively...case studies of what he regards as the most important unbuilt lines, Mr. Raskin encourages his readers to think about the adaptable nature of the city."­­WSJ Book Review ""Apart from sheer enjoyment, this book underscores how radically decisions about transit shape property values, commerce, neighborhoods, and people."­­Highly Recommended­­ Choice Magzine Marketing Plans • Author Events • Social Media Outreach • Online Advertising • Online Promotion Table Of Contents

Key Selling Points • Both Robert Lax and Thomas Merton were born in 1915. There will be many celebrations of Merton's centennial year in 2014­15, making this an ideal time to bring out a book about his best friend and fellow centenarian. • Robert Lax was an influential writer and inspirational spiritual figure in his own right. And he lived a fascinating life. Unmoored by traditional conventions, he roamed restlessly for decades­­working for The New Yorker and Time, writing scripts in Hollywood, editing a literary journal in Paris, and even traveling with a circus in Canada­ ­before settling on a remote Greek island, where the community and the culture inspired him to live and write in his own way. An illuminating biography of the minimalist poet Robert Lax, a man who embraced simplicity, humility, and poverty and found the pure joy, peace and love he had long sought. Summary "Robert Lax was a poet who devised his own poetic forms, much admired by some readers, unfortunately unknown to most. He was an intellectual and was often called a Fordham University Press 9780823268016 mystic, but he was neither, just as he was called a hermit but really wasn't. When he 0823268012 was younger, he lived in New York, where he worked for a period at The New Yorker Pub Date: 9/1/2015 and knew many figures in the arts, from Jack Kerouac, to Ad Reinhardt, E. B. White, $34.95/$43.95 Can. William Maxwell . . . the list goes on. Most crucially he was a close friend of Thomas Discount Code: 02 Merton's and was made known, a little, by Merton's autobiography, in which he Hardcover appears. He also for a time traveled with a circus and wrote a lovely little book about 472 Pages it, The Circus of the Sun"­­hard to find, but worth the search. For the larger parts of 16 b/w illustrations his life he lived alone, on islands in Greece, and spent much, perhaps most, of his time Religion / Christianity REL010000 in solitude and meditation, trying to find some kind of ultimate peace (though he never Series: Catholic Practice in North put it that way). Even then he knew and was admired by many; and many others America (FUP) who'd only heard of him sought him out. He was invariably hospitable and welcoming, 6.1 in | 9.3 in his presence gentle, humorous, and utterly patient. In short, there's never been Status:UNSPECIFIED anyone like him, and Pure Act, in its offering of a detailed recounting of his life and an acute presentation and analysis of his too­neglected poetry, gives him to us: the gift of a human being unlike any other."­­C. K. Williams An illuminating biography of the minimalist poet Robert Lax, a man who embraced simplicity, humility, and poverty and found the pure joy, peace and love he had long sought.

Pure Act tells the story of poet Robert Lax, whose quest to live a true life as both an artist and a spiritual seeker inspired Thomas Merton, Jack Kerouac, William Maxwell and a host of other writers, artists and ordinary people. Known in the U.S. primarily as Merton's best friend and in Europe as a daringly original avant­garde poet, Lax left behind a promising New York writing career to travel with a circus, live among immigrants in post­war Marseilles and settle on a series of remote Greek islands where he learned and recorded the simple wisdom of the local people. Born a Jew, he became a Catholic and found the authentic community he sought in Greek Orthodox fishermen and sponge divers.

In his early life, as he alternated working at the New Yorker, writing screenplays in Hollywood and editing a Paris literary journal with studying philosophy, serving the poor in Harlem and living in a sanctuary high in the French Alps, Lax pursued an approach to life he called pure act­­a way of living in the moment that was both spontaneous and practiced, God­inspired and self­chosen. By devoting himself to simplicity, poverty and prayer, he expanded his capacity for peace, joy and love while producing distinctive poetry of such stark beauty critics called him "one of America's greatest experimental poets" and "one of the new 'saints' of the avant­garde."

Written by a writer who met Lax in Greece when he was a young seeker himself and visited him regularly over fifteen years, Pure Act is an intimate look at an extraordinary but little­known life. Much more than just a biography, it's a tale of adventure, an exploration of friendship, an anthology of wisdom, and a testament to the liberating power of living an uncommon life. Contributor Bio

"Michael McGregor's Pure Act is an outstanding contribution to Lax studies and greatly enriches our understanding of the poet­sage, giving readers much unpublished and little­known material."­­S.T. Georgiou, author of In the Beginning Was Love: Contemplative Poems of Robert Lax "A thoroughly researched and compassionate look at the remarkable life of Robert Lax. Those who know him only as a close friend of Thomas Merton will be delighted with the person they find in these pages: an influential poet, a voice for peace, a wanderer and seeker after truth. Many sought Lax out at his Patmos home; McGregor has made his wisdom available to all."­­Kathleen Norris "With grace and insight, McGregor bears witness to the evolution of a great artist who is seamlessly connected to his art."­­Jim Forest, author of Loving Our Enemies: Reflections on the Hardest Commandment "Tender, thorough, meticulous, an act of fine and generous and wonderfully sharp­eyed sharp­eared witness.

Key Selling Points • DeSalvo is a unique scholar and beloved author because of her range of interests and influence and the richness and diversity of the body of work she has produced during the last few decades. • She is the author of the riveting memoir Vertigo (1996), a truly groundbreaking work that shed light on how Italian Americans can grapple with the question of unspoken memories and forgotten histories. Reprinted by The Feminist Press and translated into Italian by Nutrimenti, it has influenced pretty much every Italian American memoir that has been written since then. It is also one of the most widely taught Italian American books. Chasing Ghosts is a gripping narrative about a daughter's quest to achieve reconciliation with her father during the last years of his life when he finally broke his silence about his military experience before and during World War II. Summary Chasing Ghosts is a gripping narrative about a daughter's quest to achieve reconciliation with her father during the last years of his life when he finally broke Fordham University Press his silence about his military experience before and during World War II. 9780823268849 0823268845 Pub Date: 10/12/2015 When literary biographer and memoirist Louise DeSalvo embarked upon a journey to learn $24.95/$27.50 Can. why her father came home from World War II a changed man, she didn't realize her Discount Code: 03 quest would take ten years or that it would yield more revelations about the man­­and Paperback herself­­and the effect of his military service upon their family than she'd ever imagined. 280 Pages During his last years, as he told her about his life, DeSalvo began to understand that Biography & Autobiography her obsession with war novels and military history wasn't merely academic but rooted in / Personal Memoirs her desire to understand this complex father whom she both adored and reviled because BIO026000 Series: World War II: The of his mistreatment of her. Although she at first believes she wants to uncover his Global, Human, and Ethical story, the story of a man who was no hero and who was adversely affected by his Dimension (FUP) military service, she learns that what she really wants is to recover the man he was 6.1 in | 9.3 in before he went away. Status:UNSPECIFIED As DeSalvo and her father uncover his past piece by piece, bit by bit, she learns about the dreams of a working­class man who entered the military in the late 1930s during peacetime to better himself, a man who wanted to become a pilot. She learns about what it was like for him to participate in war games in the Pacific prior to the war, and the war's devastating toll. She learns about what it was like for her parents to fall in love, set up house, marry, and have children during this cataclysmic time. And as the pieces of her father's life fall into place as DeSalvo works to piece together the puzzle of everything she's learned about this time, she finds herself finally able to understand him.

Chasing Ghosts is an original contribution to the understanding of workingclass World War II veterans who did not conventionally distinguish themselves through "heroic" actions and whose lives were not until recently considered worthy of historical or cultural attention. It personalizes the history of those sailors who served in the Navy aboard aircraft carriers and on islands in the Pacific prior to and during World War II and contributes to the current vital conversation about the often­unrecognized effects of war and its traumas upon those men and their families. It reveals the lifelong devastating consequences of military service on those men and women who fell in love, married, and set up house. And it reveals the complexity of what it is like to be the daughter of a father who has gone to war. Contributor Bio

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Theory at Yale The Strange Case of Deconstruction in America Marc Redfield

Key Selling Points • This is the first book­length history of the Yale School of literary criticism, the crucial gateway through which European theory entered the United States in the 1970s and 1980s. • The Yale School­­traditionally identified as Paul de Man, Geoffrey Hartman, J. Hillis Miller, and Harold Bloom, with the part­time addition of Jacques Derrida­­was the single most important force in American literary studies for two decades, and its ramifications continue to be felt though subsequent generations of those critics' students and readers. • The book documents the transformation of Harold Bloom from one of the Yale School's founding voices into one of theory's leading skeptics. • In addition to filling in historical and biographical information, Redfield is a brilliant critic himself. He writes lucidly about such matters as the central role Romanticism played in the rise of Theory in America, the ways de Man's critical methods attract biographical criticism, and the relation of the new Yale critics to their New Critical predecessors. This book examines the affinity between the notions of "theory" and "deconstruction" that developed in the American academy in the 1970s by way of a semi­fictional Fordham University Press 9780823268672 collective, the "Yale Critics": Harold Bloom, Paul de Man, Geoffrey Hartman, and J.

Theory at Yale 9780823268665 $95.00 Combining a broad account of the "Yale Critics" phenomenon with a series of careful re­examinations of the event of theory, Redfield traces the threat posed by language's unreliability and inhumanity in chapters on lyric, on Hartman's representation of the Wordsworthian imagination, on Bloom's early theory of influence in the 1970s together with his later media reinvention as the genius of the Western Canon, and on John Guillory's influential attempt to interpret de Manian theory as a symptom of literature's increasing marginality. A final chapter examines Mark Tansey's paintings "Derrida Queries de Man" and "Constructing the Grand Canyon", works that offer subtle, complex reflections on the peculiar event of theory as­deconstruction in America.

"Was the Yale School a media creation?

Key Selling Points • A charming little book that ties together philosophically the range of experiences we have of intoxication, ranging from drunkenness to exhilaration. • Nancy is at his best when explicating common modes of our existence for a broad audience, as he does here. • Nancy experiments with intoxication at the level of prose, in a virtuoso style that often imitates actual drunkenness. The prose is carefully shaped but sometimes extends into an exhilaratory play of meaning afforded by language and by translation across languages. Philosophy holds an ambivalent relation to the pleasures of intoxication, this excess that both fascinates and questions philosophy's sober ambitions for conceptual clarity and appropriate behavior. Displacing established dualities­mind and body, reason and desire, logic and eros­Nancy's subject becomes intoxicated: Ego sum, ego existo ebrius­I am, I exist­drunk. Summary From Plato's Symposium to Hegel's truth as a "Bacchanalian revel," from The Bacchae of Euripedes to Nietzsche, philosophy holds a deeply ambivalent relation to the Fordham University Press pleasures of intoxication. At the same time, from Baudelaire to Lowry, from Proust to 9780823267736 Dostoyevsky, literature and poetry are also haunted by scenes of intoxication, as if 0823267733 philosophy and literature share a theme that announces and navigates their proximities Pub Date: 12/1/2015 $15.95 and differences.

"The originality of Intoxication lies in the acuity and patience (and indeed the touch of humor) with which it teases out the surprising concurrence, or interaction, of two apparently unrelated terms­­that of the "Absolute" on the one hand, and that of "ivresse" or "drunkenness" on the other."­Richard A. Rand, University of Alabama "Read Nancy's wonderfully exhilarating Intoxication and you'll understand why it is urgent to be, like Rimbaud's boat, ivre. Make no mistake: French ivresse has little to do with intoxication's dull thud of medical measure. Leave intoxication for breathalyzers; ivresse is pure elation, sublimated elevation, an ecstatic Bacchic frenzy soaring to poetic rapture, a rapture that, as Hegel stated, achieves the dizzy dissolution of all absolutes."­­Jean­Michel Rabaté, University of Pennsylvania Marketing Plans • Online Advertising • Social Media Outreach • Online Promotion Comp Titles Poetry as Lacoue­Labarthe, Stanford University 9780804734271 $21.95 Literary 1/1/1999 Paperback Experience Philippe Press 0804734275 USD Criticism Lacoue­Labarthe, Stanford University 9780804732826 $29.95 Typography 1/1/1998 Paperback Philosophy Philippe Press 0804732825 USD University of Illinois 9780252071270 $21.00 Stupidity Ronell, Avital 12/17/2002 Paperback Philosophy Press 0252071271 USD University Of 9780226143224 $40.00 The Post Card Derrida, Jacques 6/15/1987 Paperback Philosophy Chicago Press 0226143228 USD Fordham University 9780823229628 $28.00 Corpus Nancy, Jean­Luc 10/15/2008 Paperback Philosophy Press 0823229629 USD Fordham University 9780823240036 $27.00 Corpus II Nancy, Jean­Luc 10/18/2013 Paperback Philosophy Press 0823240037 USD

Contributor Bio

Born in 1959, Kaoru Nonomura traveled widely in Asia as a university student, and upon graduation began to work as a designer in Tokyo. At the age of thirty, he decided to put his career on hold to spend a year as a trainee monk at Eiheiji, a monastery famed for its rigid discipline. Twelve months later, he returned to his design job, and it was during his daily commute on a crowded train that he began to jot down his recollections of his Eiheiji experience. These notes eventually became Eat Sleep Sit, the author's only book. Quotes

Here is an unusually fine translation of a most unusual best­seller. . . We sometimes have the odd idea that Zen means simply sitting around until satori happens. . . . It is much more, as novice Nonomura discovered when he joined the beginners at Eijeiji, one of the most rigorous temples in Japan. . . . a boot camp of a place that would make even brave marines quail. . . .Nonumura stood the strain. He stayed a year. . . . This painful route, then, is the true Zen path. . . . Almost as painful must have been the translation of this book with its extraordinary width of styles from the arcane Zen tracts of Dogen and others, to the diary­like grumbles of the clueless young Nonomura. Here, translator Juliet Carpenter not only stays the course, she defines it .here is a particularly felicitous translation, especially in the handling of the colloquial within the religious context.

Shizuo Tsuji (1935­1993) founded the prestigious Tsuji Culinary Institute in Osaka, the largest school training professional chefs in Japan. The author of over 30 books on gastronomy, travel and music, he was a leading figure in the international culinary community.His earlier work published by Kodansha in 1980, Japanese Cooking: A Simple Art, was instrumental in popularizing Japanese cuisine in the West. A second edition of Japanese Cooking came out in 2007.

Koichiro Hata, head of the Japanese cookery facilities at the Tsuji Culinary Institute, appears regularly on Japanese television, and is the coauthor of numerous cooking books in Japanese. He teaches and lectures on Japanese food not only in his native land, but abroad as well, most notably in the United States and Thailand. Quotes

For the original edition "The striking photographs and creative design of this oversize cookbook stress the physical beauty of traditional Japanese cuisine. The wonderful surprise is that the book succeeds in making these artful effects accessible even to novices of Japanese­style preparation and cooking techniques. The most exotic­looking dishes, soup, for example, or jade green deep­fried shrimp, prove to be relatively simple to prepare. Unfamiliar cooking methods are illustrated by detailed, full­color sequence photographs. And in a lovely preface, Tsuji (Japanese Cooking: A Simple Art) president of a professional culinary school in Japan (where Hata is head chef), encourages newcomers to make Japanese cookery their own, experimenting, substituting, rearranging without fear that they will violate the spirit of a most adaptable cuisine." ­ Publishers Weekly

"The recipes are clear and easy to follow, and the illustrations are especially delightful, truly top high­style Japanese simplicity. Messrs. Tsuji and Hata have given us the best of the old and the new." ­ M.F.K. Fisher Marketing Plans

Key Selling Points • An honest view of life in rural Upper Egypt with its poverty, superstition, vendettas, honor killings, rumors and folklore. • By the prize­winning translator of Al Aswany's The Yacoubian Building. Summary This collection of fourteen connected stories and a novella, From the Secret History of Numan Abdel Hafez, takes us deep into Upper Egypt and the village of Dayrut al­Sharif, in which Mohamed Mustagab was born. To depict a world renowned for its poverty, ignorance, vendettas, and implacable code of honor, Mustagab deploys the black humor and Swiftian sarcasm of the insider who knows his society only too well. When the stillness of a day's end is shattered by a single gunshot, poignant beauty merges seamlessly into horror, and when a police officer seeking to unravel a murder finds himself with more body parts than he knows what to do with, violence tips as easily into farce. In counterpoint, the author's often surrealist imagination explores the mysteries of a landscape where seductive women haunt dusty paths and a man may find himself crushed like a worm beneath another's foot. Elsewhere, the horizons of 'my village' expand to include other countries (the author worked in the Arabian Peninsula for a The American University in Cairo number of years), where equally disastrous consequences follow on folly and self­ Press delusion. Previously almost unknown in English, Mustagab's voice is both original and 9789774167072 disturbing. 9774167074 Pub Date: 9/15/2015 $12.95/$14.50 Can.

"Mohamed Mustagab transports the reader to the strange, distinctive world of rural Upper Egypt with its poverty, superstition, vendettas, honor killings, rumors and folklore. In his vigorous translation, Humphrey Davies captures Mustagab's rollicking style and vivid descriptive powers."­­Saudi Gazette "The real beauty in Mustagab's writing is a man looking back on the characters and environs of his childhood in the town of Dayrut, the stories are some times edging into the surreal and at times have a real dark satire element, the area he is talking about is a place rich in spirit and beliefs.

Key Selling Points • A concise and absorbing survey of the significant rulers of Ancient Egypt, both known and obscure. • A heavily revised and rewritten edition incorporating two further decades of research and excavation since original publication. • Narrated in the same engaging and detailed storytelling style as Dodson's previous popular works on Ancient Egypt, for both professional and amateur Egyptologists. Summary This book presents a concise account of the lives and times of some of the more significant occupants of the Egyptian throne, from the unification of the country around 3000 BC down to the extinction of native rule just under three millennia later. Some, such as Thutmose III, had a major impact on their time, and were remembered by their own people until the very civilization collapsed. Others, such as Tutankhamun, were soon forgotten by the Egyptians themselves, only to burst into popular culture thousands of years after their deaths, as a result of the labors of modern archaeologists. Still more remain unknown outside the small circle of professional The American University in Cairo archaeologists, but led lives that call out for wider dissemination.

Oxford Fall/Winter 2016 Trade Catalog Love Among the Archives Writing the Lives of George Scharf, Victorian Bachelor Helena Michie, Robyn Warhol

Key Selling Points • An experiment in meta­archival life­writing that has no precedent • The only book ever written about Sir George Scharf, founding director of the National Portrait Gallery • Humorous account of two literary critics "romancing the archive" • In­depth and fascinating exploration of same­sex love among Victorian men within the middle class Summary Part biography, part detective novel, part love story, and part meditation on archival research, Love Among the Archives is an experiment in writing a life. This is the story of two literary critics' attempts to track down Sir George Scharf, the founding director of the National Portrait Gallery in London, famous in his day and strangely obscure in our own. After discovering Scharf's scrapbook of menus and invitations from England's most stately homes, the authors began their adventures in the archives of London, searching Scharf's diaries, sketchbooks, and letters for traces of the man who so loved dining out. Addicted to Victorian novels, the authors looked for a marriage plot, but found Scharf's Edinburgh University Press 9781474406642 passionate attachment to a younger man who had hidden from him a secret 1474406645 engagement; they looked for a Bildungsroman, but found that Scharf never left his Pub Date: 10/1/2015 beloved mother.

Superb. Warhol and Michie's Love Among the Archives is a triumph of a book, that reinvents academic biography and tells a compelling story of the passions and mysteries of Victorian lives and archives. Inventive, witty and knowing, it is both an important reflection on biographical method and a joy to read.

John Bowen, Professor of Nineteenth­Century Literature, University of York

A brilliant and ambitious experiment in life writing, Love Among the Archives is a delicious, witty, learned performance. Part scholarly detective story, part postmodern metanarrative, part cautionary tale about the temptations, limits, rewards, frustrations, and secret desires involved in doing archival research, it recalls both Byatt's Possession and Symons's The Quest for Corvo.

Key Selling Points • New collection from shortlisted poet. • Rees' first poetry collection, Andraste's Hair (Salt, 2007), shortlisted for the Forward Prize for Best First Collection and the Glen Dimplex New Writers Awards. • On Rees' poetry ­ "An ambitious, experimental voice vibrantly charged with the energy of city life." ­ Carol Ann Duffy,British Poet Laureate Summary In her third full­length collection Blood Child, Eleanor Rees hones and extends her startling use of language and imagery to enact the many aspects of change ­ fleeting, elusive or moored in a negotiation of the material world as she roams through the landscapes of self and city. The idea of generation is explored in all its possibilities, the 'child' and the 'girl' are recurrent motifs, immanent and on the threshold of a magical or imaginative transformation. Landscapes are crossed, swum, burrowed under or flown above; skins and edges are sheared or lost, new coverings found and remade. Rees's poems ask how new routes can be forged across shifting terrain and she offers the emergent space of the imagination as the only answer.

On Eleanor Rees's previous work: "An ambitious, experimental voice vibrantly charged with the energy of city life."­­Carol Ann Duffy, British Poet Laureate

On Eleanor Rees's previous work: Eleanor Rees's debut collection offers up a heartfelt hymn to her native Liverpool. Her dense, textured renderings of its landscapes are eloquent, but it is her importunate, ambiguous relationship with the city that provides these poems with their drive. She is at once possessor and possessed: bestriding the rooftops like a descendent of Whitman one moment, breaking "the top from the cathedral ... oozing steam/ cream"; diminished and vulnerable, "tarmac ... biting at my ankles", the next. [...] Such imaginative freewheeling carries the risk of disorienting the reader, but the coherence provided by the location gives the poems vital integrity."­­The Guardian On Eleanor Rees's previous work: "Here is a poetry that relishes the chaotic and magical; trees and plants abandon gardens and start to move down the street, humans give birth to animals, houses come alive. Eleanor Rees's language is sensuous, unpredictable. The materials of folktale and border ballad are never far away."­­The Guardian

On Eleanor Rees's previous work: "Eleanor Rees's poetry is strikingly pleasing, its distinctive rhythms as insidious as water."­­PN Review

On Eleanor Rees's previous work: " I love the meaty, muscularity of the poems ... I caught the boat to Ireland from Liverpool recently and found myself remembering big chunks of the river poem as we chugged past the harbour bar."­­Frank Cottrell Boyce

Key Selling Points • A brilliant and compelling new voice, tipped for international recognition. • Mona Arshi was joint winner of the Manchester Creative writing poetry prize in 2014. • Praise from The Times and poets George Szirtes and Moniza Alvi. Summary Mona Arshi's debut collection, Small Hands, introduces a brilliant and compelling new voice. At the center of the book is the slow detonation of grief after her brother's death but her work focuses on the whole variety of human experience: pleasure, hardship, tradition, energised by language which is in turn both tender and risky. Often startling as well as lyrical, Arshi's poems resist fixity; there is a gentle poignancy at work here which haunt many of the poems. This is humane poetry. Arshi's is a daring, moving and original voice. Contributor Bio

several years, undertaking test case litigation under the Human Rights Act.

80 Pages Poetry / English, Irish, Scottish, "It is a testament to Mona Arshi's talent that, after a decade of not reading any poetry Welsh at all, her work had me clambering for old anthologies. Of course, little of what I read POE005020 afterwards was as elegant, moving, haunting or true. Nothing less than Britain's most Series: Pavilion Poetry LUP promising writer."­­Sathnam Sanghera, The Times 7.3 in W | 4.6 in H | 0.5 in T Status:UNSPECIFIED

"There is an extraordinary keenness, sharpness, poignancy and precision in Mona Arshi's poems. They deal with loss, pleasure and the sheer particularities of life with striking grace, constituting something like 'an erotics of the spirit', tenderly and imaginatively taking apart and reassembling language, registering everything necessary. Time and again she hits the perfect note. It is rare to find a first book as beautiful as this."­­ George Szirtes

"Deliciously varied in form and approach, tone and voice, Mona Arshi's poems display a tantalising 'instability' ­ each one prismatic and glittering. She opens a clear, suggestive window onto many aspects of life and inner life, on her cultural background, for instance, and on the tragic loss of a brother. So often one thinks, pulled up in amazement, 'Where did that come from?' that I'm tempted to the use the word 'genius'."­­Moniza Alvi

Sarah Corbett's first collection of poetry The Red Wardrobe (Seren, 1998) won her an Eric Gregory Award and was shortlisted for both the T.S Eliot Prize and the Forward Best First Collection Prize. Described as "Poetry as white knuckle ride" (Poetry Wales), The Red Wardrobe established Corbett as one of the most daring poets of her generation, and was made into a short film (The Red Wardrobe, dir. Gabrielle Russell, 1998). This was followed by The Witch Bag (2002) and Other Beasts, (2008), both from Seren. A selection of translations from the Dutch poet Mustafa Stitou can be found in Uit Het Hoofd/By Heart (Five Leaves Press, 2006).

Born in 1970, Sarah grew up in North Wales and studied at the universities of Leeds, East Anglia and Manchester, where she gained a PhD in Critical and Creative Writing in 2013. She currently lives in the Calder Valley and is a Lecturer in Creative Writing for Lancaster University. She was a Royal Literary Fund Fellow in 2012. Quotes

"A romance, a thriller, a myth, Sarah Corbett's new poem will have her readers hurrying through its pages to find out what happens before returning more slowly to the pleasures of her stepped, tilting stanzas and their line­by­line transformations of her characters and their places in the world. 'Step in', she writes, 'and the space unfolds / one box opening into others'."­­John Mcauliffe

"'Can memory be put in a box?' asks one of the characters in Sarah Corbett's mysterious, condensed and achingly beautiful narrative tale. This lyrical, unsettling, and arresting poem about passion, memory and loss possesses an hallucinatory quality. Corbett creates an extraordinary urban world where a man reaching for his past finds it ever out of reach. The erotic writing captures the complexity of sexual connection and 'the inner silk of memory'. Corbett writes fluid and irresistible poetry, to be read, re­read and savoured."­­Patricia Duncker

"In this dazzling tour de force, Sarah Corbett reworks the verse­novel into a contemporary odyssey through a labyrinthine underworld where myth and the unconscious collide. With effortless formal dexterity, her poetry is by turns mysterious, disturbing, startling and intensely sensuous, and if a poetry book can be a page­ turner then this is that book. At its heart this is a narrative of loss and redemption as deeply humane as it is ambitious: you will want to read it in a single sitting, then re­read to savour its impeccable craft. An exciting development in contemporary narrative poetry, and a must­read."­­Tiffany Atkinson

On Sarah Corbett's previous collection, The Red Wardrobe (Seren, 1998):
