Rational Building

'Carrie Dunn's book shows that there are some unique facets of the female football fan experience, including a strong engagement with the new cooperative supporters' trust movement, and fascinating negotiations of identity within this male-dominated world. [This book] will challenge readers to think about the fluid nature of identity, behaviour and practice, not just for individual communities but for their institutions as well.'- LSE Review of Books

"Never before has the Israeli experience in the Yom Kippur War been so sensitively and intricately documented .&#160;.&#160;. &#160;A seamless, riveting narrative [that is] both compelling and intelligent."&mdash;The Washington Post Book World"The best general history of the Yom Kippur War. The writing is clear, compelling, and precise and offers a good understanding of both the military operations and the political developments. At both levels it was a fascinating war. .&#160;. .Outstanding."&mdash;Ha'aretz"Rabinovich's extra efforts to get inside the minds of Arab generals are especially welcome. . . .&#160;sheds light on a conflict that altered the psychology and diplomacy of the Middle East down to the present day." &mdash;The New York Times Book Review&#160;"Superbly written. . . . The Yom Kippur War is easily the best and most complete general history of the conflict." &mdash;Parameters&#160;"Truly striking. Rabinovich's book is brilliant, sweeping and insightful."&mdash;Naval History"As no one before, Abraham Rabinovich recounts the whole story of the 1973 Yom Kippur War, that most elusive round of the Arab-Israeli conflict." &mdash;Middle East Quarterly"Superb. I have found few works of military history so difficult to put down." &mdash;Jerusalem Report"Rabinovich displays his keen comprehension of military tactics and strategies with detailed, fast-paced accounts. His eye for political and diplomatic maneuverings is equally sharp." &mdash;History Book Club"Impossible to put down." &mdash;Gershom Gorenberg, author of Days of Awe"Its revelations are astonishing. Its prose is gripping. Its conclusions, richly documented and austerely objective, are intensely relevant to the Middle Eastern crisis of our own day." &mdash;Professor Howard M. Sachar, author of A History of Israel"Abraham Rabinovich has written an exceptionally exciting book." &mdash;Professor Edward N. Luttwak&#160;

&ldquo;Kat Greene&#160;mixes&#160;Harriet the Spy&#160;with some Windex and a dash of humor for a compelling story about the lengths we&rsquo;ll go to for the people we love. A sparkling debut!&rdquo; &mdash;Erin Donne, author of&#160;The Total Tragedy of a Girl Named Hamlet &#160; &ldquo;I absolutely loved Kat's warm, funny, perfectly-pitched middle-grade voice. This book fits perfectly in the heartwarming tradition of Manhattan-based stories from E.L. Konigsburg, Rebecca Stead, Louise Fitzhugh, and Judy Blume. Highly recommended!&rdquo;&#160; &ndash;Sally J. Pla, author of&#160;The Someday Birds &#160; &ldquo;With the same timeless feel as Judy Blume's middle-grade books, Kat Greene relays its themes in a similarly clever and entertaining way. I loved the way author Melissa Roske empowers Kat and, as a result, her tween readers.&rdquo;&#160; &mdash;Katy Upperman, author of&#160;Kissing Max Holden &#160; &ldquo;Melissa Roske gives us an easy-to-love protagonist in Kat Greene. She's smart, authentic, and very relatable. Kat navigates her struggles in realistic ways and never loses heart.

&#8220;Remarkable. . . . Heartwrenching from beginning to end.&#8221; &#8211;The New York Times Book Review&#8220;Shu Wen&#8217;s remarkable story is simply told. . . . Her actions speak volumes.&#8221; &#8211;San Francisco Chronicle&#8220;This story of one extraordinary woman written by another extraordinary woman will stay with you long after closing the book.&#8221; &#8211;The Sunday Times (London)&#8220;Lyrical. . . . Illuminates a largely inaccessible country&#8217;s hardy people, its communal, religious spirit, and its continuing political struggles with its Communist neighbor.&#8221; &#8211;Entertainment Weekly&#8220;An unexpected joy. . . . This remarkable novel is an extraordinary tale that is fast-paced and packs quite the emotional punch.&#8221; &#8211;Tucson Citizen&#8220;Xinran tells the story with spare elegance, doing particular justice to the awesome emptiness and silence of Tibet&#8230;. The text paints Tibet as outside time and politics, an elemental backdrop for musing on love everlasting and noble suffering.&#8221;&#8211;The Globe and MailPraise for Xinran&#8217;s The Good Women of China:&#8220;Remarkably evocative, bursting with details that make each account haunting. These stories have all the force of good fiction.&#8221;&#8212;The Washington Post&#8220;The Good Women of China is delicate, beautiful, low-key and devastating.&#8221;&#8212;Toronto Star

Sky Burial

Praise for Andrea Camilleri and the Montalbano Series:&#160;&#8220;Camilleri&#8217;s Inspector Montalbano mysteries might sell like hotcakes in Europe, but these world-weary crime stories were unknown here until the oversight was corrected (in Stephen Sartarelli&#8217;s salty translation) by the welcome publication of&#160;The Shape of Water&#8230;This savagely funny police procedural&#8230;prove[s] that sardonic laughter is a sound that translates ever so smoothly into English.&#8221;&#8212;The New York Times Book Review&#160;&#160;&#8220;Hailing from the land of Umberto Eco and La Casa Nostra, Montalbano can discuss a pointy-headed book like&#160;Western Attitudes Toward Death&#160;as unflinchingly as he can pore over crime-scene snuff photos. He throws together an extemporaneous lunch of shrimp with lemon wedges and oil as gracefully as he dodges advances from attractive women.&#8221;&#8212;Los Angeles&#160;Times&#160;&#8220;[Camilleri&#8217;s mysteries] offer quirky characters, crisp dialogue, bright storytelling&#8212;and Salvo Montalbano, one of the most engaging protagonists in detective fiction&#8230;Montalbano is a delightful creation, an honest man on Siciliy&#8217;s mean streets.&#8221;&#8212;USA&#160;Today&#160;&#8220;Camilleri is as crafty and charming a writer as his protagonist is an investigator.&#8221;&#8212;The Washington Post Book World&#160;&#160;&#8220;Like Mike Hammer or Sam Spade, Montalbano is the kind of guy who can&#8217;t stay out of trouble&#8230;Still, deftly and lovingly translated by Stephen Sartarelli, Camilleri makes it abundantly clear that under the gruff, sardonic exterior our inspector has a heart of gold, and that any outburst, fumbles, or threats are made only in the name of pursuing truth.&#8221;&#8212;The Nation&#160;&#8220;Camilleri can do a character&#8217;s whole backstory in half a paragraph.&#8221;&#8212;The New Yorker&#160;&#160;&#8220;Wit and delicacy and the fast-cut timing of farce play across the surface&#8230;but what keeps it from frothing into mere intellectual charm is the persistent, often sexually bemused Montalbano, moving with ease along zigzags created for him, teasing out threads of discrepancy that unravel the whole.&#8221;&#8212;Houston&#160;Chronicle&#160;&#8220;Sublime and darkly humorous&#8230;Camilleri balances his hero&#8217;s personal and professional challenges perfectly and leaves the reader eager for more.&#8221;&#8212;Publishers Weekly&#160;(starred review)&#160;&#8220;In Sicily, where people do things as they please, Inspector Salvo Montalbano is a bona fide folk hero.&#8221;&#8212;The New York Times Book Review&#160;&#160;&#8220;The books are full of sharp, precise characterizations and with subplots that make Montalbano endearingly human&#8230;Like the antipasti that Montalbano contentedly consumes, the stories are light and easily consumed, leaving one eager for the next course.&#8221;&#8212;New York&#160;Journal of Books&#160;&#160;&#8220;The reading of these little gems is fast and fun every step of the way.&#8221;&#8212;The New York Sun
