&ldquo;Vivid. . . . Ellis writes with insight and acuity in the present tense, just as he always has in the past tense, and in American Dialogue he draws connections between our history and our present reality with an authority that few other authors can muster.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Jeff Shesol, The New York Times Book Review&ldquo;Joe Ellis knows that history is not simply about the past, it&rsquo;s about the present having a conversation with the past. In this elegant and fascinating book, he conducts a discourse between our current troubled times and the period when our founders crafted our national creed. The result is an exploration of our values that is both timely and timeless.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Walter Isaacson, author of&#160;Leonardo Da Vinci&ldquo;Ellis has taken those recurring questions and those astonishing founders and held them up against our current agonies, seeking to make sense of the present through the prism of the past. . . . Thoughtful and thought-provoking . . . this book may prompt readers to consider that there may be no certainties in a world where philosophy, practicality, and personal interest collide.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;The Boston Globe&ldquo;Ellis is not concerned with quiet insights or reassurance. He means to mark out where we have strayed from, and how we have betrayed, America's founding ideals.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;The Washington Post&ldquo;American Dialogue&#160;tries to break the conversational deadlock by going back to the beginning and exploring the controversial choices made by the Founders themselves, asking hard questions about who they were, what they did, and what legacies they left behind.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;San Francisco Book Review &ldquo;A lucid and authoritative examination of America's tumultuous beginnings, when the Founding Fathers grappled with issues of race, income inequality, law, and foreign policy&mdash;all issues that still vex the nation. . .&#160; .These and other salient questions inform Ellis' vivid depiction of the controversies swirling as the Constitution was drafted and ratified. . . . A discerning, richly detailed inquiry into America's complex political and philosophical legacy.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Kirkus Reviews (starred)

The Founders and Us

American Dialogue

“Sieroka has developed a kind of
empirically-informed Husserlian-Leibnizian parallelist account of perceptual
and physiological phenomena. … he develops his views with great rigor, and in
many passages brings to bear his perspective on current debates, attesting to
the current relevance of his account. The book is very clearly written,
rendering the Leibnizian and Husserlian views accessible to a broad
philosophical and scientific readership, and providing a framework to organize
one’s thoughts on the topics of perception and time.” (Kristjan Laasik, Phenomenological
Reviews, reviews.ophen.org, December, 2015) &nbsp; &nbsp;

"The authors have packaged the information with a very wide range of tables, figures, key equations and source references. Many readers will find all they ever wanted to know about tunnel construction without leaving its pages; while those for whom it whets the appetite to dig deeper (pun intended!) will find comprehensive pointers to up-to-date sources of literature elsewhere."
-- Andrew Dawson, Nottingham University, UK

Introduction to Tunnel Construction

López, Associate Professor of Legal Studies in Business, Hofstra University, USA

"Dr. Girasa's book bridges the considerable gap between purely academic case books and strictly pragmatic practice guides. As general counsel of an investment advisor, I appreciate the ability to 'get smart' on a relevant topic by reading the appropriate chapter in this book.

This will be a useful tool for practitioners in a variety of disciplines." - Jordan Breslow, General Counsel, New Island Capital Management

'The footprints of Dr. Thomas Kirsch’s journey as an inheritor and lifelong contributor to the Jungian tradition are tracked in this fine volume. The full arc of his contributions to Jungian organizations, theory, history, and clinical practice unfold in these pages which reveal Kirsch as a man 　with rare gifts of insight, thoughtfulness and feeling who did not dodge landmines in his own psyche, in Jung’s legacy or in his colleagues. 　Born of a mother and father who were both Jungian analysts, some eighty years later Dr. Kirsch became the first person ever　 to be interviewed on film in Jung’s Bolllingen library where his modesty and deep knowledge of the human psyche show him to be that rarest bird, a Jungian "wise old man" who has lived fully the hand that fate dealt him.' - Thomas Singer, M.D., USA

`With its combination of an elegant review of some  basics of plasma physics by a master of the subject and a review of  one of the most active areas of current research, this volume should  be of wide interest, and is a worthy addition to a distinguished  series.'

The argument that Simler and Hanson make is rather comprehensive, and compelling. They bring together research on various topics of limited reach that, when combined, speak to the outrageous gall of the mind in recreating reality to its own liking, and then covering its tracks.
