"Reading Walzer is taking Walzer seriously by providing attentive reading of an inspired political thinker with inspiring political thoughts. It covers many aspects of Walzer's thoughts not only with celebratory panache but also with critical punch. To read Michael Walzer is an aesthetic feast, to read Reading Walzer retains the flavor of reading the original." - Avishai Margalit, Princeton University, USA
"For more than 40 years, Michael Walzer has been one of the most distinctive, wide-ranging, and consistently interesting voices in political theory. These 14 essays by a top-flight cast of philosophers, political scientists, and legal scholars, display, in a critical and probing manner, the richness of Walzer’s legacy. Reading Walzer is a most welcome contribution, and clearly the best secondary source on Walzer available today." - Endre Begby, Simon Fraser University, Canada
"This Festschrift to Michael Walzer is, to the best of my knowledge, the first critical collection dedicated to his work. This may be surprising – as Naomi Sussmann’s helpful introduction demonstrates, and pace Walzer’s self-effacing claim that he has ‘generally been marginal to academic debates’ (p. 167), his contribution to these debates in the last 50 years has been remarkable. Given this lacuna, a collection of new articles from leading scholars revisiting Walzer’s writings is more than welcome."- Lior Erez, University College London

&ldquo;Beautifully written, touching and   profound, this book makes reasonable what we already sense&mdash;that our dogs love   in a way that goes much deeper than we think, and that teaches us something   about what it means to be human. The Grace of Dogs, written by one of my   favorite contemporary theologians, is perfect for dog lovers and those who   love them. It will open your eyes to what&rsquo;s really going on between us and   our canine family members.&rdquo;  &ndash;Nadia Bolz-Weber, author of   Accidental Saints &#160; "Like all the best writing (and   theology), The Grace of Dogs comes from deep in the author's personal   experience. It will make you smile, shed a tear, and nod in recognition.   You'll find yourself reflecting on the most wonderful things in life... from   the sincerity of a child to the wag of a black lab's tail, from the grace of   dogs to the grace of God."  &ndash;Brian D. McLaren, author of The Great   Spiritual Migration

Praise for A Sun for the Dying"Our last true romantic, Jean-Claude Izzo transmits warmth to his readers, as if granting them a mouthful of pure love. A Sun for the Dying is beautiful, like a black sun, tragic and desperate."&mdash;Le Point (France)"Jean-Claude Izzo knew how to recount stories of intense love found and lost, of the sea and the sun and their perfumes&ndash;above all the blue Mediterranean of Marseilles&mdash;of the lives of forsaken tramps who wander the streets begging 'please, can you spare a little sun.'"&mdash;La Repubblica (Italy)Praise for Jean-Claude Izzo"Izzo digs deep into what makes men weep."&mdash;Time Out New York"Izzo writes candidly about European racial politics, and his characters brood intriguingly."&mdash;Publishers Weekly"What makes [Izzo's] work haunting is his extraordinary ability to convey the tastes and smells of Marseilles, and the way memory and obligation dog every step his hero takes."&mdash;The New Yorker"Izzo's Marseilles is ravishing. Every street, cafe and house has it's own character."&mdash;Globe and Mail&#160;

Praise for Barbara Belford's Bram Stoker: A Biography of the Author of Dracula"A superb biography...It completely alters our understanding of the classic tale."&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;--Michael Sheldon, Baltimore Sun"Intelligent, well-written and always interesting...showcasing some of the most fascinating characters ever to gather on the same stage."--Margot Peters, The New York Times Book Review"One of the delights of Belford's work is that it is studded with rapidly drawn and vivid portraits."--Penelope Mesic, Chicago Tribune"Belford achieved a goal Count Dracula appreciates. She has restored Bram Stoker to life in the ordinary world."--Jules Wagman, St. Louis Post-Dispatch"Organized and written with formidable intelligence, her interpretation of Dracula [is] threaded skillfully into the narrative of Stoker's life."--Ian McIntyre, London Times
