"Literature and Journalism in Antebellum America is a crisp and graceful study of one of the longest playground fights among American writers - the competing claims to truth by journalists and by other writers in literary work. This is sibling rivalry Canada argues, because everyone who sought to live by their pen in the nineteenth century shared an encounter with news reporting as well as with belles-lettres . . . We are led directly and skillfully to what Canada has to say at the end: Great journalists and great authors, after all, agree on two things: stories are great, but the truth is hard. " - Tom Leonard, Professor, Graduate School of Journalism, University of California, Berkeley

"Literature and Journalism in Antebellum America offers a unique perspective on a hitherto-neglected subject of importance: the chief antebellum writers' sharp awareness of and sharper responses to the rise of commercial writing in newspapers that captured so large an audience. Historians of American literature, print culture, and American Studies will be particularly interested in this book, but it should be found on the shelves of anyone interested in nineteenth-century America generally. Moreover, the author's asides that treat of the vexed state of journalism at this moment add to the volume's significance." - Philip F. Gura, Newman Distinguished Professor of American Literature and Culture, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

This is a fantastic book about how to live well. Phil Hammond's goes beyond the usual tips about diet and exercise - we hear about the power of positive thinking, as well as how to get the best out of the health service. And this book is packed with real stories - from people who have become survival experts through their own experiences. Their stories are heartwarming, enlightening and useful. Phil Hammond has a knack of being brutally honest and very funny at the same time. This is quite simply the most useful book about health and the health service that I've ever read.

Staying Alive

Die Muota ist ein bedeutender Fluss im Kanton Schwyz. Auf dem Weg vom Quellgebiet zur Mündung zeigt sie ihre ganze Kraft und Schönheit. Mal tosend und wild, mal leise und sanft fliesst sie durch das Bisistal, das Muotatal und den Talkessel von Schwyz. Bei Brunnen mundet sie in den Vierwaldstättersee. Die Muota prägt die Landschaft und wird von ihr geprägt.

‘This volume of essays on André Jolivet restores the reputation of a composer overshadowed by his slightly younger contemporary Olivier Messiaen – undeservedly, because, as the authors show, it was Messiaen who was greatly indebted to Jolivet. The authors – headed by the book's editor Caroline Rae – illuminate not only the currents and cross-currents in Jolivet's music but also set these in the context of his work as a conductor, writer, teacher, critic and accomplished painter. Beautifully written and illustrated, the book is an indispensable companion to one of the most strikingly original figures of French twentieth-century music.’Peter Hill,&nbsp;University of Sheffield, UK. ‘André Jolivet: Music, Art and Literature is the first book in English devoted to this significant composer and brings together internationally leading figures who use new archival sources to argue convincingly for Jolivet’s originality and independence.’ Barbara L. Kelly, Royal Northern College of Music, UK.&nbsp;'This brilliantly-marshalled volume makes no exaggeration in claiming that Jolivet is a neglected, but crucial, figure in the development of 20th-century French music.&nbsp;It is altogether a book whose depth goes way beyond its title: providing an invaluable scaffolding for the study of French music in the inter-war years.'Richard Langham Smith, Royal College of Music, UK
