From title page to last page, Albert Greco reminds us again that scholarly publishing is a business and will have a hard time surviving if its participants-from authors to administrators to librarians to publishing professionals in both the nonprofit and for-profit sectors-do not recognize that simple fact. Along the way he provides clear, concise explanations of contracts and copyrights that will benefit newcomers and refresh the memories of even seasoned publishers.

Understanding 'Sectarianism'

“‘Language is the fire that survives us,’ Mark Wagenaar writes, and we are seared gladly by his brilliant flames. A pilgrim in the ‘Christ-haunted South,’ as Flannery O’Connor describes it, these poems reckon with the sins of history and the human-made scars on the natural world. The songs of Charles Wright, Rilke, and Blind Willie Johnson have tuned Wagenaar’s ear, but the music is his own, irresistibly so. Southern Tongues Leave Us Shining is a brave and difficult grappling, ending with the difficult joy of a child’s birth and the world’s subsequent remaking. This is, simply put, poetry that adds to the glory of the human endeavor.”—Beth Ann Fennelly, Poet Laureate of Mississippi, author of Heating & Cooling

“In Southern Tongues Leave Us Shining, there is a rapturous beauty that encompasses the American South, the United States, and the world, a poetic rooted in the space around the poet and extending outward to the world with questioning, compassion, grief, and hope. The lines have an aching eloquence bustling with a truer Southern verve, one recognizable by those who know it and appreciable by those who have yet to know it. There are many lines in this collection that take me up in a swoop and carry me along the terrain of now and never.”—Afaa M. Weaver, winner of the Kingsley Tufts Poetry Award; final judge of the 2016 Benjamin Saltman Award

&#8220;An insightful, learned, and thought-provoking theory that the political tribalism of the moment is rooted in the worlds of Gingrich and of the Clintons, and the first days of the political-entertainment complex. This is an illuminating argument from a master political journalist and analyst.&#8221;

Du bist OKAY

? "An exemplary addition to the shelves of nature-themed picture books." &mdash;Kirkus, starred review&nbsp;&nbsp; ? "Bauer&rsquo;s verselike text pairs gracefully with smudgy and similarly understated scenes from British illustrator Jones: the text and artwork work in tandem to suggest the hushed onset of winter while carrying readers forward with the swiftness of a snow flurry."&nbsp; &ndash;Publishers Weekly, starred review&nbsp;&nbsp; ? "The regular pattern of Bauer&rsquo;s text provides excellent support for pre-readers, while remaining sweetly simple. However, it&rsquo;s Jones&rsquo; soft-lined, textured illustrations that steal the show, as they cast beautiful forest scenes across the page, using a cool wintry palette against which the fox&rsquo;s orangey-red fur pops. Eventually, the fox finds another of his kind, who has the answer to his question, providing a lovely finish to this finely crafted winter&rsquo;s tale." &mdash;Booklist, starred review&nbsp;&nbsp; "Inspired by the author&rsquo;s discovery of the foxes&rsquo; dance in the woods of the North, the descriptive, lyrical text and its placement imitate the dance&rsquo;s movement...A suggested first purchase suitable for young readers in libraries and classrooms studying seasons and animal behavior." &ndash;School Library Journal

WINTER DANCE

"One of my favorite things about how much queer YA we get these years is that we&#8217;re finally allowed to have the messy stuff, the representation that isn&#8217;t the neatest and most pristine and clear cut.... Is Nandan bisexual? Is he in it to be more interesting? Is he always going to be &#8220;different&#8221; now, even more than before? So many questions and no great answers, but exploring the complexity of it all is the beauty of this book."

We Are Totally Normal

Ein Streifzug durch die schöne Hansestadt Wismar

Unser schönes Wismar (Wandkalender 2026 DIN A4 quer), CALVENDO Monatskalender

"State Looteries by Henricks and Embrick is a must read for anyone interested in financial justice for all. While implicit bias is often thought of when we discuss the criminal justice system and mass incarceration, rarely is it even considered when we discuss tax policy. That is why this book is so important. It provides a behind the scene look at how a seemingly neutral thing, like state lotteries, can impact taxpayers differently because of their race. Read it and weep."

- Dorothy A. Brown, Vice Provost and Professor of Law, Emory University

"If we really want to comprehend where today’s economic justice stands so far as race is concerned, perhaps we should look no further than tax law. Henricks and Embrick do just that in State Looteries. With both plain English and piercing analysis, they capture the subtleties of how race and racism shaped the emergence of state lotteries over the past 50 years—a truly fundamental shift in the tax code. This is among the best cases yet for racially-conscious public policy that says enough is enough."

- Kimberlé W. Crenshaw, Director of the Center for Intersectionality and Social Policy Studies, Columbia University and Distinguished Professor of Law, University of California at Los Angeles
"State Looteries　provides a devastating and comprehensive examination of the sustained use of public policies to destroy and expropriate　black wealth in America. This is a critical study that helps us understand the origins and persistence of today's enormous racial wealth gap."

- William A. Darity, Samuel DuBois Cook Professor of Public Policy, African and African American Studies, and Economics, and Director of the Samuel Cook Center on Social Equity, Duke University

"Capitalism pays workers the lowest wages the market will sustain, and then devises ingenious ways to bilk the lower classes of their sparse dollars. State Looteries shows how the state is implicated, under the false pretense of sending ‘deserving’ students to college, not only in looting the poor but also of stealing their dreams for deliverance."

- Stephen Steinberg, Distinguished Professor of Urban Studies, City University of New York – Queens College and Graduate Center
