From the reviews:“This little book (16×24cm) is very useful. The main different techniques of laminoplasty are described with many drawings. Little surgical tricks are given to the reader in order to be able to perform the surgery. Indications and results of personal series follow. The book is practical, easy to consult just before going to the operating room. It is definitely an interesting book to own for a spine surgeon.”­­ (J.-P. Steib, Argospine News & Journal, Vol. 22 (4), 2010)

"Powerful . . . a fiendish story told with Katzenbach's usual skill and professionalism. . . . This is an exceptional novel&mdash;and a most troubling one."&#151;Washington Post"Katzenbach reinvents the formula several times over in this absolutely gripping novel."&#151;Booklist (starred review)"I raced through this book. . . . I read a ton of novels in this genre and thought I had the ending figured out within the first fourth of the book or so. Wrong. Even if you are a better guesser than I am, you will be entranced with What Comes Next. Don&#8217;t miss it."&mdash;BookReporter"Reading What Comes Next is an experience akin to riding the scariest roller coaster ride: You gulp with the rush of both trepidation and excitement&#151;and you sigh with relief when it's over."&#151;New York Journal of Books"Katzenbach has crafted a suspenseful cat-and-mouse thriller, a perfect literary mash-up of The Truman Show and Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.

"‘Die Unschuld der Dinge‘ ist ein wunderschön gestalteter Bildband, eine Art Museumskatalog und der reichillustrierte Bericht über die Genese dieses Projekts, mit dem sich der Schriftsteller dreißig Jahre seines Lebens beschäftigt hat. Erst mit Hilfe dieses Bandes lässt sich ganz erfassen, was Orhan Pamuk eigentlich mit seinem ungewöhnlichen Projekt bezweckt und auf welch verschlungenen Wegen der Ehrgeiz eines Schriftstellers, die Obsession eines Sammlers, die Leidenschaft eines Ethnologen, der Stolz eines bekennenden Istanbulers und die alles überwölbende Melancholie eines Liebenden dabei ineinandergreifen. Es gibt nur einen Haken bei der Sache: Wer ‘Dier Unschuld der Dinge‘ gelesen hat, der will das Museum der Unschuld und dessen Sammlung unbedingt mit eigenen Augen sehen."

To the plethora of books written by journalists and family members about Donald Trump and his Presidency, Gregg Barak adds Criminology on Trump. Barak’s unique take on Trump and the Trump organization evolves out of decades of studying the political economy of corporate and white-collar crime and he brings the "tools, methods and theories" of the trade to lay bare Trump’s plutocracy and political corruption. It is a fascinating yet sobering tale of how money corrupts democracy and may destroy it.
Sally Simpson, Interim Chair and Distinguished University Professor, Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice, University of Maryland., USACriminology on Trump offers a unique social-psychological portrait of how the two Trumps, the real Donald Trump and his alter ego the Donald, were shaped by, and are now shaping the institutional and cultural framework of America. Through a unique application of the tools of criminological inquiry, Dr. Gregg Barak, reveals how Trump’s malign personality intersected with America’s malignant capitalism to create not only a Mobster in Chief, but also Trumpism, a social movement that will likely shape America’s political climate well into the future, with or without Trump. For anyone interested in the future, Criminology on Trump is a must read.

Raymond J. Michalowski, Arizona Regents Professor Emeritus, Northern Arizona University, USA
Using a broad criminological perspective that draws on issues central to white-collar and elite offending, this important book provides a deep and novel analysis of Donald Trump’s behaviors before, during, and after his presidency. Barak effectively exposes the fundamental shortcomings of media-driven, and relatively narrow legal interpretations of such acts, and in doing so, issues a major rationale for crucial scholarly attention toward elite criminality while setting a copious conceptual table for future research.

Henry N. Pontell, Distinguished Professor, John Jay College of Criminal Justice and Professor Emeritus, University of California, Irvine, USA
The lifelong involvement of Donald J. Trump in a wide range of corrupt and criminal activities, continuing during his four-year presidency and in the wake of his re-election loss, is a hugely significant phenomenon in American history. Gregg Barak, in Criminology on Trump, has explored quite exhaustively this criminal career, and has applied some comparative and conceptual dimensions of criminology to advance a sophisticated understanding of it. Both students of criminology and of the present American political world have much of value to learn from this book. It can be regarded as a crowning achievement in Barak’s long and distinguished career as a critical criminologist.

David O. Friedrichs, Author of Trusted Criminals: White Collar Crime in Contemporary Society, USA 
Scholarly, rigorous and meticulously researched, informed by criminology, political economy and psychology, this is a hard-to-put-down, forensic and ultimately terrifying analysis of Teflon Don, whose life and times Hollywood would surely not have dared to conjure up as fiction. Barak magisterially documents Trump as the source of a devastating gamut of harms, through every crime in the book spanning the five decades before, during and after his presidency, and culminating in insurrection – failed, but for which he still evades accountability. Beware then: read this book. For as Barak convinces, in a style accessible to and demanding of the widest possible readership (this is ‘newsmaking criminology’ at its very best), the key forces of economic and political power which have maintained Trump to date may yet combine to propel the Racketeer-in-Chief, the only POTUS twice-impeached, back into the White House.　
Steve Tombs, Professor of Criminology, The Open University, England

Award winning scholar Gregg Barak uses his critical eye to serve up a detailed and illuminating account of the decades long story of the organized deviant behaviors of Trump. In doing so he skillfully weaves together theories of personality and social structure in this fascinating and unique description of how a deviant life course emerges, and how that life course was projected as normal and even laudable in a (social) media-dominated age.

Michael J. Lynch, Professor and Director of Graduate Programs, Department of Criminology, University of South Florida, USA

Donald Trump could be an ideal film character, like those depicted by Charlie Chaplin or Federico Fellini. But as Gregg Barak suggests, he is also the ideal subject of study for criminologists, who provide subtle evaluations of the harm caused, among others, by powerful individuals and groups. Barak takes the daunting task of analyzing the conduct of an evasive ameba and his associates, who straddle buffoonery and illegality. The book manages to position ‘criminal jesters’ among the forces that support and attempt to exacerbate structural inequality. This is a splendid achievement by a top critical scholar. 

Vincenzo Ruggiero, Professor of Sociology, Middlesex University, England

Gregg Barak’s Criminology on Trump uses detailed research to demonstrate Donald Trump’s modus operandi in advancing his business and political career, and how these advances were made possible by white-collar crime, abuses of power and Trump's apparent impunity. The past and present of Donald Trump are very much an American affair, and lie at the heart of American democracy. But the Trump phenomenon is of major international interest, as is this excellent book!

"The multifaceted dimensions of the contemporary crisis of democracy emerge powerfully in this excellent collection of thoughtful contributions from leading scholars in contemporary political theory. Contributors seem to be engaging in an extended dialogue that reaches across the full range of theoretical, historical, social, and political challenges that neoliberalism, managerialism, and global financial upheavals pose to democratic life, while at the same time offering possibilities for renewal by claiming a "right to politics." 　A timely and important book."—Mary G Dietz, Northwestern University

"This is a wonderful book about couple therapy. Saturated with the wisdom of one of America’s most thoughtful and skillful couple therapists, Nielsen provides the sort of practical guide to practice for which couple therapists yearn. Building on a wide-ranging integrative framework, he helps couple therapists understand the intricacies involved in working with couples experiencing common problems and stressful situations such as issues with money, stepfamily issues, and sexuality. This book should be required reading for every graduate course in couple therapy and will be of great value to every couple therapist." 
Jay Lebow, PhD, Editor, Family Process; Professor, The Family Institute at Northwestern University.
　
"Art Nielsen has written a tour de force, applying his comprehensive, flexible integrative approach to couple therapy to the common struggles couples present. Blending systemic, psychoeducational/behavioral, and psychodynamic theories and techniques in a systematic manner, Nielsen shows beginning and advanced clinicians how to bring these multiple perspectives to issues of money, issues of division of domestic labor, the balance between work and relationship time, affairs, couples on the brink of divorce or already engaged in that process, and stepfamilies. Based on science, therapeutic craft, and artistic use of metaphor, and with great attention to sustaining a working alliance, Nielsen provides a detailed roadmap for helping couples with these common challenges. This book is an essential text for couple therapists at any level of training and experience. Highly recommended, and highly engaging!"
Peter Fraenkel, PhD, Associate Professor of Psychology, The City College of New York, former Vice President, American Family Therapy Academy, and author of Last Chance Couple Therapy: Bringing Relationships Back from the Brink.
"In a comprehensive work that reflects a vast knowledge along with years of wisdom and experience as a couple therapist, Nielsen successfully integrates from across psychotherapy couple treatment models, drawing upon the most up-to-date research and scholarship, and offering all sorts of gems about how to conduct therapy along with helpful tools that will prove indispensable to your practice. Definitely a must have on your bookshelf!"
Rhonda Goldman, PhD, Professor, The Chicago School of Professional Psychology, Author: Case Formulation in Emotion-Focused Therapy: Co-creating Clinical Maps for Change, and The Clinical Handbook of Emotion-focused Therapy.
"Art Nielsen has done it again!　Like his first book, this sequel　is another clear, well-written, user-friendly guide that draws on the author's 40 years of clinical experience, seemingly encyclopedic knowledge of the couple therapy and related literature, and ability to translate complicated concepts into plain English.　Both are books I wish I'd had when I saw my first couple, and yet I still learned from them over 30 years later." 
Carla Leone, PhD, Faculty Institute for Clinical Social Work (Chicago); Secretary, International Association of Psychoanalytic Self Psychology;　author of numerous papers on the application of self psychology to the treatment of couples and families.
"Couple therapy is a most difficult field. Art Nielsen’s　Integrative Couple Therapy in Action　is a master class in how to integrate diverse therapeutic approaches to treating couples. Drawing on decades of experience and from the depth of his thinking about couple therapy, Nielsen integrates lessons from systems, psychodynamic and behavior therapies to produce a guide that is at once practical and wise. The book offers support to therapists with a wide range of approaches and a deeper understanding of the shoals upon which couples frequently flounder. It is a book to keep at hand for moments when therapists need a guide for navigating their way through clinical problems."
David E. Scharff, MD, Co-Founder and Former Director, International Psychotherapy Institute.Former Chair, International Psychoanalytic Association Committee on Couple and Family Psychoanalysis; co-author,　Object Relations Couple Therapy,　and co-editor,　Psychoanalytic Couple Therapy.
"Following on Art Nielsen’s landmark, Roadmap for Couple Therapy, which mapped the integrative territory of couple therapy, Nielsen’s new book focuses on the major intersections in that territory—sex, conflict, intimacy, money, etc. Not only does he focus on understanding those intersections, this book is full of his wisdom on how to successfully traverse them. Nielsen’s unique wisdom is his ability to seamlessly move back and forth from the depths of the psyche to the complexities of changing behavior in the here and now. Beginners can use this book to learn "how to" and old folks like me can use it sharpen and expand what we know. Another gift to the field and to the couples we treat."William Pinsof, PhD, LMFT, ABPP, Past President, The Family Institute at Northwestern University, Clinical Professor of Psychology Northwestern University, lead author, Integrative Systemic Therapy: Metaframeworks for Problem Solving with Individuals, Couples, and Families.
"In this second comprehensive text, Art Nielsen again brings his brilliantly integrative mind to the task of teaching the science and art of couple therapy. Whether he is summarizing the major theories that have shaped the field, teaching essential clinical concepts and principles, or offering specific and helpful case illustrations, one senses Nielsen’s scholarly grasp, clinical wisdom, and basic humanity and empathy (including empathy for the reader) on every page. The result is a sophisticated primer that teaches therapists at all levels how to offer distressed couples the complex, often-multidimensional, therapeutic help they actually need."

"In this generous book, Dr. Nielsen provides a far-ranging view of the most common topics that couples in therapy bring to their therapist—problems with money, job issues, children, sex, affairs and so on. He digs down in each of these broad topics, detailing all the different nuances, subtopics and hidden issues that can be involved as well as providing extensive research references, case vignettes and practical tips for both therapists and couples. For novice therapists, this book is a treasure trove of concentrated expertise and experience. For more experienced clinicians, it is a wonderful tool for refreshing, expanding, and focusing your thinking about the couples who come to you with their problems."
Prudence Leib Gourguechon, MD, Past President of The American Psychoanalytic Association and Past Dean of The Chicago Psychoanalytic Institute.
"At a time when our field is riven with narrow partisan advocacy, Art Nielsen has pursued a very different path, He draws from the best of each major line of thought and arrives at an approach marked by both depth and clinical wisdom. An invaluable guide to clinical work with couples."Paul L. Wachtel, PhD, Distinguished Professor, Doctoral Program in Clinical Psychology, City College of New York. Co-founder of The Society for the Exploration of Psychotherapy Integration (SEPI). 
"Art Nielsen provides a comprehensive guide to couple therapy, offering both the beginning and more advance clinician a wide array of helpful interventions with couples in distress. Using an integrative lens, and bringing the reader into the therapist's thought process, this book offers concrete suggestions for successfully working with a variety of common couple struggles."
