Praise for Death and the Language of Happiness &ldquo;Straley flawlessly expresses both his and our own underlying anxiety about the world around us in this superb series.&rdquo; &mdash;San Francisco Chronicle  &ldquo;Mr. Straley writes with such brio.&rdquo; &mdash;The New York Times"The guy can write. Straley has a loose-limbed, lyrical prose style, and there is a sweet gracefulness to the way he portrays his fiercely independent, often slightly dingy, characters."  &mdash;Seattle Times  "What makes this latest Alaskan mystery a must is&mdash;as always&mdash;the sheer beauty and energy of Straley's writing."  &mdash;Chicago Tribune"The best Cecil Younger adventure so far."  &mdash;Anchorage Daily News&ldquo;[A] superb series of Alaska mysteries . . . An entirely original whodunit, composed in a language guaranteed to open your eyes and ears to a strange new world . . . What Straley offers is excitement, high comedy and a mega work out for the senses.&rdquo; &mdash;Literary ReviewPraise for the Cecil Younger investigations &ldquo;A fascinating Alaskan setting, great characters, a highly unusual plot and remarkably good writing. It&rsquo;s a winner.&rdquo; &mdash;Tony Hillerman, New York Times bestselling author of the Leaphorn and Chee novels &ldquo;Like the Coen brothers on literary speed, John Straley is among the very best stylists of his generation.&rdquo; &mdash;Ken Bruen, Shamus Award winning author of The Guard "Superior thriller writing, once again by Straley&mdash;an excellent plot against Alaska's gigantic and bizarre backdrop." &mdash;Janwillem van de Wetering, author of Outsider in Amsterdam &#160; "Now and then a writer dares to flout the rules and in so doing, carves out a niche that belongs to him alone. John Straley's novels are like no others." &mdash;San Diego Tribune &#160; &ldquo;Absorbing and convincing . . . Straley&rsquo;s a real writer.&rdquo; &mdash;The Washington Post Book World&ldquo;Thoroughly enjoyable and slightly wacko . . . Ironic humor reminiscent of the Coen brothers and violence worthy of Quentin Tarantino.&rdquo; &mdash;The Boston Globe

"Rarely, if ever, has the contemporary lyric been both so pure and so informed with varieties of experience; the historical and the mythic and the utterly everyday; crack addicts and Medusa and Goya, carpenter bees and graffiti, the blur of a xerox and the evocativeness of cave paintings; all conveyed with a startling precision of perception and reflection and locution. This is fine work, both delicate and bold."--C.K. Williams"An illuminated insight and wit highlight the deep-seeing of Laurie Sheck's Black Series. This is a seeing into things that is musical, a taking apart and putting-back-together that cast the human eye as godlike--almost Emersonian. What we think we know is imagistically probed till it reveals something we didn't know. In this sense, the poems in Sheck's wonderful book are "spies of light": they disrobe our senses so that each of us is Goya's apprentice, honing our skills to see in the dark. Here nothing is borrowed; each poem's imagery is direct, seldom beyond us, yet always challenging. We can all savor Black Series, an exhibition of lyrical surprises."-Yusef Komunyakaa"Laurie Sheck is a modern shaman, a storyteller who knows that the best stories are not those that merely entertain but those that accompany us long after their telling . . . Just as in ancient worlds myths offered the templates for negotiating a safe path through terrors natural and Olympian, Laurie Sheck's poems find embodiments for the maladies of the new millennium: anxiety and the terror of affluence, alienation in the midst of commerce, and the illusion of Free Will in the Free World. Imagine being plopped down in this civilization without prior knowledge of it; imagine having to map your way without any clues but those the mysterious person guarding the city gates chooses to give out. 'Listen carefully,' she whispers; and you do, because your life depends on it."--Rita Dove, Washington Post Bookworld

Eckstrom's cartoon-style art enhances the humor at every turn, even including tiny, distant images of the house hurtling through the sky on pages before its crash-landing. Wonderful&#8212;sure to beckon repeat reads.&#8212;Kirkus ReviewsThe pencil, acrylic, and digital art undercuts some of the action with fuzzy edges and a muted palette, but the real possibility here lies in the performance, with the animals&#8217; compounding upon their frustrated answers to Duck&#8217;s misinterpreted command (&#8220;You are a duck, and he is a horse, and she is a cow, and he is a pig, and I am a sheep&#8221;), culminating in a very adult-sounding lecture about the value of difference&#8212;right before the wind picks up. Use this as a playful counterpart to the classic &#8220;Chicken Little&#8221; for an engaging storytime.&#8212;Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

As such, it is a recommended text for those seeking accreditation on courses such as Approved Teacher Status and associate membership of the BDA [...] This slim text (161 pages) packs in a huge amount of distilled wisdom and it would be of great value to those interested in training in this field, as well as the classroom practitioner." - SEN Magazine

Bruce McKenzie's book in its third edition in six years is an excellent guide to clinicians seeking to use the Internet.  Following clear and understandable explanations of the Internet, e-mail and the World Wide Web, his panel of contributors describe the use of these in communication, clinical care, education (for doctors and patients), research, publishing and commerce.  Throughout there are the addresses of essential Internet sites, and a large number of
supporting references . . . For those to whom the computer is still a novelty as well as those who regard it as an essential aid, this book will be a boon and its acquisition is highly recommended.

From the reviews:“Symbiotic fungi was published in 2009 and is a compilation of 26 edited chapters on this theme by more than 70 international authors. … If you are interested in the methods for study mycorrhizal fungi this is certainly the book you must have. … should be available in all good school, community and university libraries and any research laboratories dealing with agriculture or mycorrhizal research. A essential book addressing mycorrhizal methods.” (K. D. Hyde, Fungal Diversity, Vol. 45, 2010)
