Scott Fitzgerald "Make your characters want something right away even if it's only a glass of water. Characters paralyzed by the meaninglessness of modern life still have to drink water from time to time."&#160;&#160;--Kurt Vonnegut

"This is a riveting, compassionate, and beautiful narrative.&#160; I will never be able to forget this powerful book." -John Nichols, author of The Milagro Beanfield War"The Borderland&mdash;the trouble zone between two countries, between two languages, the poverty which is the huge shadow of affluence, the place where you live when life is impossible, the time between boyhood and manhood when a young man does crazy things, the region where the saints and the outlaws are&mdash; all these borderlands are in Urrea's book of horrors and marvels, tenderness and rage."- Ursula K.

'...crisply written... (McAlindon's) force, clarity and rigour hold the attention and clear the mind.' Times Literary Supplement  '...these essays are both stimulating and thought-provoking.' Contemporary Review  'This good book by a distinguished scholar is a necessity, not a luxury, for those in search of exemplary scholarship and criticism... Tom McAlindon has devoted a long, productive, and successful professional life to literary scholarship, concerned with Shakespeare especially but by no means exclusively... this work is in effect something of a summing-up and crowning work.... Shakespeare Minus "Theory" is hard to write about because it speaks so well for itself that one is tempted to quote to back up every assertion..' Renaissance Forum  'This book is one of the most engaging as well as thorough of those undermining the engines of the radical criticism that have attacked the Shakespeare who was not of an age but for all time... McAlindon is a superb critic... McAlindon takes us on a journey through the tragedies in the manner of good teacher would... There are original insights here aplenty... A reader finishes this book eager once again to read Shakespeare and to teach or write about his plays - and to read more Tom McAlindon.' Comparative Drama  ’This good book by a distinguished scholar is a necessity, not a luxury, for those in search of exemplary scholarship and criticism, with much to say of value on the subjects of both Shakespeare and ’theory’, the former primary, the latter less a means of understanding than an obstacle to insight, as he convincingly demonstrates. Shakespeare’s himself again, here, and the book will reward the reading of anyone interested in what and how Shakespeare’s plays mean, even if he or she is less interested in how and by whom they have been made to mismean (= Shakespeare plus ’theory’), a topic to which McAlindon gives persistent, lucid, refutative, and corrective attention, and in which many will be interest

“The Ultimate Guide for Gay Dads” is a rich resource of knowledge that will prove a useful tool in any gay father’s diaper bag."- Gay San Diego

"The Ultimate Guide for Gay Dads is a great resource that goes beyond birth certificates. It includes tips and advice from lawyers, doctors, and educators on a plethora of other topics including parental leave when it comes to adoption and surrogacy, how to find LGBT-friendly pediatricians, and how to find LGBT-friendly schools. Firsthand stories from other gay dads are also sprinkled throughout the book, and that “lived experience” helps make the book relatable to other gay men looking for advice." -TwinMoms.com

"This guide offers answers from legal birth certificate issues to nutrition tips for dads feeding infants. It also lists possible ways that parents can respond to their babies’ cries and to outside queries about their family. As well, it includes advice on how parents can approach sexuality and orientation topics with older children." - Intersections, Toronto University

One of the best academic introductions to Lacan's discourse. - Eugen Baer, Structuralist ReviewNot the charlatan he is sometimes designated, but someone to be reckoned with. I would reverse the usual prescription and suggest starting with the exposition and criticism fist, and only then proceeding to Lacan's own text, start with Anike Lemaire. - Anthony Storr, Sunday Times

While thoroughly aware of conventional New Testament scholarship, this author brings a challenging and intensely interesting Muslim perspective to the Apostle Paul’s claim that Christ brings freedom from religious law. Skilfully drawing out themes that unite and divide members of three monotheistic religions, this commentary is remarkable, provocative, and essential reading.Paul S. Fiddes, Professor of Systematic Theology, University of Oxford
This is an extremely interesting, and very important, book. Paul’s Letter to the Galatians, with its insistence that the Galatian followers of Jesus do not need to be circumcised, is an absolutely central text for understanding the evolution of Christianity as a tradition of faith distinct from its Jewish ancestor, and this is, to the best of my knowledge, the first time that a Muslim writer has wrestled with it in as much detail as Dr. Akhtar has; he is very much to be congratulated for doing so with such thoroughness, and the Oxford Centre for Muslim-Christian Studies is also to be commended for providing the environment within which he has been enabled to do so.Hugh Goddard, University of Edinburgh Reviewed for The Centre for Muslim-Christian Studies, Oxford
