The adventures of Tintin and his dog, Snowy, have captivated people worldwide since they first appeared as an insert in the Belgian Cath- olic newspaper Le Vintième Siècle in 1929. Available for the first time in English, this insightful biography delves deep into the psyche of Tintin creator Georges Remi and his public persona Hergé. Author of the critically acclaimed Tintin and the World of Hergé and the last person to interview Remi, Benoît Peeters tells the complete story behind Hergé’s origins and shows how and why the nom de plume grew into a larger-than-Remi personality as Tintin’s popularity exploded. Drawing on interviews and using recently un- covered primary sources for the first time, Peeters reveals Remi as a neurotic man who sought to escape the troubles of his past by al- lowing Hergé’s identity to subsume his own. As Tintin adventured, Hergé lived out a romanticized version of life for Remi. Millions have traveled alongside Tintin and Snowy through books, animated television series, theatrical performances, exhibitions, documentaries, and movies, including Steven Spielberg’s fall 2011 Comics writer, novelist, and critic, BENOÎT The Adventures of Tintin.

Katz As the United States withdraws its combat troops from Iraq and Afghanistan, politicians, foreign policy specialists, and the public are worrying about the consequences of leaving these two countries. Neither nation can be con- sidered stable, and progress toward democracy in them—a principal aim of America and the West—is fragile at best. But, international relations scholar Mark N. Katz asks: Could ending both wars actually help the United States and its allies to overcome radical Islam in the long term? Drawing lessons from the Cold War, Katz makes the case that rath- er than signaling the decline of American power and influence, removing military forces from Afghanistan and Iraq puts the U.S. in a better position to counter the forces of radical Islam. He explains that since both wars will likely remain intractable, for Washington to remain heavily involved in ei- ther is counter-productive. Katz argues that looking to its Cold War expe- rience would help the U.S. find better strategies for employing America’s scarce resources to deal with its adversaries now. This means that, although leaving Afghanistan and Iraq may well appear to be a victory for America’s opponents in the short term—as was the case when the U.S. withdrew from Indochina—the larger battle with militant Islam can be won only by refo- cusing foreign and military policy away from these two quagmires. This sober, objective assessment of what went wrong in the U.S.–led wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and the ways the West can disentangle itself and still move forward draws striking parallels with the Cold War. Anyone concerned with the future of the War on Terror will find Katz’s argument highly thought provoking. MARK N. KATZ is a professor of government and politics at George Mason University. He has authored several books, including Russia and Arabia: Soviet Foreign Policy toward the Arabian Peninsula, also published by Johns Hopkins.

McLay, M.D., Ph.D. The Spartans called it The Trembler; recent history has seen it termed Shell Shock, Combat Fatigue, Soldier’s Heart, and Vietnam Syndrome. Whatever the name, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) has always been with us. With twenty percent of the veterans of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq exhibiting PTSD symptoms, the United States military has a strong interest in combating the condition. Navy psychiatrist Robert N. McLay has been at the forefront of these efforts. This is his story of using Virtual Reality to treat service personnel and veterans with PTSD. As a practicing psychiatrist who worked with veterans and civilians dealing with PTSD, McLay knew for years before the September 11, 2001, attacks that effective treatments for the condition were elusive. When active duty called, he met the challenge, becoming the primary investigator on PTSD treatment projects that had service members face the ghosts of war in a computer simulator. After using this new form of exposure therapy on the home front, McLay and his team believed that they had found a prom- ising way to work with warriors broken by combat, so in 2008 they took it to the front line in Fallujah, Iraq, with the First Marine Expeditionary Force. Several years into the project, McLay recounts openly and with bleak honesty the successes, failures, and limits of Virtual Reality treatment for PTSD. Filled with poignant firsthand accounts of war and its psychologi- cal aftermath, At War with PTSD explains the difficulties of using this spe- cialized technology in the field and discusses such nettlesome challenges as dealing with people who refuse to believe in PTSD, including those diag- nosed with it. So far, the Virtual Reality program shows more promise than traditional therapies. And although McLay remains unsure why or how, his experiences hold out hope for those suffering from this devastating disorder. ROBERT N. McLAY, M.D., PH.D., is a psychiatrist and research director with the Naval Medical Center San Diego. He came on active duty in the United States Navy in 2001 and shortly after the start of the war in Afghanistan became Primary Investigator on two Navy programs involving Virtual Reality treatment for PTSD.

Formisano The Tea Party burst on the national political scene in 2009–2010, powered by right-wing grassroots passion and Astroturf big money. Its effect on elec- toral politics and the political process is undeniable, but the message, aims, and staying power of the loosely organized groups seem less clear.
