&quot;Take the worlds leading authorities on the psychology of the self and ask them to write about what they know best, and you have the Handbook of Self and Identity. Now in its second edition, this remarkable handbook offers the first and last word on this important subject.&quot;--Daniel Gilbert, PhD, Department of Psychology, Harvard University &quot;Building on the strengths of the first edition, the editors have assembled an all-star team of experts to address classic topics and emerging areas of inquiry into the many and varied facets of self and identity. Bringing together individual and social perspectives, this handbook serves as a powerful reminder that self and identity are rooted in biological, social, and cultural contexts, and have far-reaching consequences for how people think, feel, and act as individuals and as members of relationships and groups. Quite simply, this handbook is a &#39;must read.&#39;&quot;--Mark Snyder, PhD, McKnight Presidential Chair in Psychology, University of Minnesota &quot;I was tempted to assign nearly every chapter of this volume in my graduate Self and Identity class. Each chapter is cogent, neatly summarizes past work, and provides insights into future directions. The Handbook has been an outstanding text for this course.&quot;--Jeffrey Green, PhD, Department of Psychology, Virginia Commonwealth University-_x000D_Handbook of Self and Identity is dynamite....Almost every finding relates uncannily to the issues my patients bring to sessions....The editors' care and scrutiny are evident throughout this attractive volume. The book is well-organized, well-indexed, and easy to read.--Psychiatric Services, 12/30/2011ƒƒ_x000D_Terrific. A handbook should provide a comprehensive and current review of the field it covers, and the Handbook of Self and Identity delivers in each respect. This handbook would make a fine introduction in an advanced undergraduate course (assuming knowledgeable and engaged students), and an even better review of the field for graduate students....The book is also valuable to professionals working in the areas of self and identity.--PsycCRITIQUES, 12/30/2011ƒƒThis is a well-written book by influential authors who are experts in this field....It is an important book for researchers and clinicians.--Doody's Reviews, 10/1/2012ƒƒProvides a useful overview for advanced students and researchers interested in the self, and, more important, some needed perspective on the way forward.--PsycCRITIQUES, 12/19/2012ƒƒThis is a very useful collection of essays for the researchers and academicians in philosophy, cognitive science and neuroscience as well as in psychology and especially in social and cognitive psychology....A very timely and valuable contribution to the current interdisciplinary discussions of  the self, especially given the recent upsurge in theoretical and empirical interest in self-related topics. I recommend this book for anyone who wants to have a broader understanding of the self and how our identities are shaped in a social, historical, psychological and neurological point of view.--Metapsychology Online Reviews, 2/26/2013

"Though Paolo Moschino and Philip Vergleyen&rsquo;s French bulldog Jack, who graces the cover of Susanna Salk&rsquo;s&#160;At Home in the English Countryside: Designers and their Dogs, would not be my choice for a canine companion (too precious), the pooch does illustrate the thesis of the book, namely that dogs have the ability to tie a room together in a way that a Ming vase can&rsquo;t quite. Through seventeen chapters, each featuring a famed British interior designer and his or her dogs&mdash;from Labradors to lurchers, Jack Russells to jaunty spaniels&mdash;Salk demonstrates how both&#160;canine art, and the dogs themselves, can alleviate the frightful grandeur of certain country homes, humanizing us in the process." &mdash;NEW CRITERION"Much to our delight, Salk is back with a follow-up that is sure to have Anglophiles and their canine compatriots drooling. For At Home in the English Countryside: Designers and Their Dogs, out last week from Rizzoli, the author set out with photographer Stacey Bewkes on a road trip through rural England to visit 19 designers, their sprawling estates, and their resident pups. The residences&mdash;which range from stately Queen Anne mansions to Tudor farmhouses&mdash;are escapist treats on their own, of course, but they are made even more delightful by the four-legged friends who animate their well-appointed interiors. The book captures scenes of levity and grandeur: leggy whippets lounging on chintz cushions; a dachshund trotting down a hornbeam tunnel; a pug posing on a vintage Persian runner. Here, we present a few of our favorite tableaux." &mdash;ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST&#160;"Celebrating British country life, At Home in the English Countryside: Designers and Their Dogs (Rizzoli; $50) offers charming design ideas on how to live stylishly with canine companions. From rose bushes to Retrievers and antique porcelain to Cavalier King Charles spaniels, some of Great Britain&rsquo;s best&mdash;like Paolo Moschino and Kit Kemp&mdash;take readers on romps all around their dog-friendly abodes." &mdash;ATLANTA HOMES & LIFESTYLES&#160;"You will see that even the&#160; most&#160; elegant,&#160; stylish,&#160; and&#160; well-appointed&#160; house&#160; is&#160; nothing but&#160; a shell without&#160; its&#160; inhabitants, especially the canine kind.&#160; At Home in the English Countryside features over 200 pages of beautiful images offering readers a personal, guided tour into some of England&rsquo;s most spectacular homes and grounds. While we&rsquo;re all grounded and sheltering in place in our homes, there&rsquo;s never been a better time to get lost in a gorgeous book such as this." &mdash;THE ENTERTAINING HOUSE

Kunio Hara is one of the few music and Japanese film scholars with a truly multidisciplinary and multilingual competence. To discover the minutest details of Totoro's music through a panoply of references previously unavailable to English-speaking readers, while also enjoying endearing recollections on the special sense of nostalgia exuded by the film, is all the more satisfying.

"A quixotic tale of determination, endurance and wonder . . . His descriptions of these venerable contraptions are thrilling to read . . . This is a beautifully written, passionate memoir . . . one lived in intimacy with the weather (generally horrible), in touch with the sky and earth and its creatures, domesticated and wild." &mdash;Katherine A. Powers, StarTribune (Minneapolis)"A rare breed of a book . . . to be greatly treasured." &mdash;The Daily Mail"So remarkable, and so profoundly enjoyable to read . . . it seems as though the Galloway land itself, on which his family has lived for centuries, is breathing and speaking through him, sometimes driving his prose to extraordinary heights and depths of rich, sweet lyricism. " &mdash;The Scotsman"Laurie&rsquo;s narrative is a celebration of farming and the rural life, hard as it may be . . .&#160;A lyrical, keenly observed addition to the top shelf of British nature writing." &mdash;Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"Journalist Laurie shines in his debut, a heartstring-tugging and beautifully written account of farming in his ancestral home of Galloway . . . Blending arch humor with evocative prose, Laurie shares stories of his experience raising a rare breed of cattle native to the region on his family&rsquo;s farm, in an attempt to commune with the land his forefathers worked . . . Like the bittersweet cry of the curlew, Laurie&rsquo;s lyrical tribute will be hard to forget." &mdash;Publishers Weekly (starred review)&ldquo;This very contemporary account, taking place as it does in the midst of numerous environmental tipping points, is a crucial reminder that tending to the world right in front of us is maybe the best thing we can do.&rdquo; &mdash;Literary Hub, Best Books of the Year"Laurie writes lyrically about his small herd of Riggit cattle and his crops, their successful growth contrasted with his and his wife's fertility struggles . . . The account brims with beautiful details of farm life, complemented perfectly by Sharon Tingey's penciled illustrations. Narrated in Laurie&rsquo;s Scottish voice, this paean to simpler times is reminiscent of James Herriot's writings about Yorkshire and well worth a read." &mdash;Booklist"How do we find our truest selves? Patrick Laurie&rsquo;s answer has been to meld back into the landscape that had formed him, returning to his heart's home; and then endeavoring to revive a working landscape, its wild things, and his soul. He tells the story of this journey in prose that will take you there. Join him on this walk." &mdash;Carl Safina, author of Becoming Wild: How Animal Cultures Raise Families, Create Beauty, and Achieve Peace
