"Pierre Orelus has written an insightful, far-reaching and highly significant critique of the presidency of the first African-American to hold the office in the USA."　
Paul Carr, co-author of The Phenomenon of Obama and the Agenda for Education

"Pierre Orelus provides a compelling indictment of the Obama years with respect to both domestic and foreign policy."
Mike Cole, Professor, University of East London. Author of Critical Race Theory and Education: A Marxist Response.　

"Pierre Orelus' important book, Race, Power, and the Obama Legacy, offers a detailed challenge to the many false assumptions surrounding Obama. Not only does he provide the necessary evidence to counter the notion that institutional racism has been eradicated, but he connects racism to capitalism."
Curry Malott, Author of Teaching Marx: the Socialist Agenda.
"Orelus' courageous new bookis an important analysis, a must-read for educators and concerned citizens worldwide who wish to defeat the plague of racism and the brutality of capitalism in the interests of bringing forth a new social universe animated by social justice and true equality."
Peter McLaren, Distinguished Professor, Chapman University, and author of Pedagogy of Insurrection

Race, Power, and the Obama Legacy

"This book edited by Tessa Baradon and written by her andfour other seasoned parent-infant psychotherapists brings the reader an enlivened and enlivening view of the theory, practice, and applications of contemporary psychoanalytically oriented parent-infant psychotherapy and its growing evidence-base. There is something valuable in it for clinicians of every level of experience from novice to pro. This is a book whose usefulness extends across disciplines and to intervention with children and families beyond the period of infancy. It is rare to see such a clear and well-written psychotherapy text."- Daniel S. Schechter, M.D., Senior Lecturer in Psychiatry and Deputy Chief of Service, Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Service, University of Geneva Hospitals and Faculty of Medicine, Switzerland; and Research Faculty, Columbia University Center for Psychoanalytic Training and Research, New York
"The Practice of Psychoanalytic Parent-Infant Psychotherapy: Claiming the Baby, comes at the perfect time in the development of the field. Indeed, it is well known today that infants perceive and react to their environment and therefore may develop signs of emotional distress that require some kind of therapeutic intervention. We are at the stage now to conceptualize our therapeutic approaches and to teach them. This book integrates core concepts such as embodied communication, interactive inner realities, transition to parenthood and family dynamics, into a model of daily practice, with clear guidelines and clinical illustrations. It is the end-product of a long process of transmission of knowledge, skill and experience, and thus is a precious contribution to clinicians and health workers who encounter the baby and his/her parents in the community." - Miri Keren, M.D., Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, Geha Mental Health Center, Tel Aviv university Medical School, President of the World Association of Infant Mental Health

"The insights from evolutionary theory are essential to an understanding of who we are, where we come from, and how we relate to each other. These insights have been very sparsely applied in the social sciences, especially in the study of human communication. And yet this basic feature of human existence—its essence, modalities, and impact—can only be seriously studied from an evolutionary perspective. 

This book by James Lull provides for a vital omission and is a ‘must read’ for students and practitioners alike who want to understand how we became the planet’s most cooperative communicators."

Cees J. Hamelink, Emeritus Professor of International Communication, University of Amsterdam
"Engagingly written, explaining a wealth of instances where communication and life itself cross, Evolutionary Communication presents a radical new perspective for Communication Studies. Covering ground from how single-celled organisms interact to the wonders of the most recent communication technologies, this is a book of great insight and intellectual courage."

Eduardo Neiva, Professor of Communication Studies, The University of Alabama at Birmingham
"The semiotic approach to communication explains the evolution of living beings and represents the new wave of evolutionary theory."

Kalevi Kull, Professor of Semiotics, University of Tartu, Estonia, and President of the International Society for Biosemiotic Studies 
"The connective tissue of human progress is communication. James Lull teases out this truism in a fascinating and scientifically rich exploration of how communication evolved and the role it plays in the complexities of life today. It’s rare to find a book that combines scholarship and readability. This is one of them."

Robyn E. Blumner, President and CEO, Center for Inquiry and Executive Director, Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science
"In this innovative volume, James Lull links the biological and cultural development of human communication with rich contemporary examples and clear terminology that capture the relevance of evolution in the age of the Internet. Accessible to anyone seeking a guide through the key theories and accumulating empirical evidence, Evolutionary Communication provides a one-stop resource." 

Klaus Bruhn Jensen, Professor of Media, Cognition, and Communication, University of Copenhagen
"…a comprehensive and accessible book that will provide a much needed resource for instructors who teach communication from an evolutionary perspective. The book weaves seamlessly through an incredible diversity of topics including cultural issues and new technology, all presented mindfully with an evolutionary focus."

Greg Bryant, Professor of Communication, University of California-Los Angeles 　
"Evolutionary Communication is the first major textbook in the field of communication to apply evolutionary theory systematically to all aspects of human communication. As James Lull lucidly explains throughout the book, "Communication is the mechanism of evolution" in all its various configurations, manifestations, and applications. The scholarship that provides the intellectual foundations for this book is superb and the writing is elegant. Irrespective of whether you are new to the field of communication or a senior scholar, you will learn a great deal by reading this book; moreover, it will profoundly influence the way you think about human communication."

Peter Monge, Professor Emeritus at the Annenberg School of Communication and Journalism, University of Southern California

Dieses bezaubernde Märchen entführt in die musikalische Welt von New Orleans. Hier, in der Hauptstadt des Jazz, ist Voodoo mehr als dunkle Zauberei und die Einwohner der Stadt haben noch wahre Träume. So auch
die hübsche Kellnerin Tiana, die sich nichts sehnlicher wünscht als ein eigenes Restaurant. Doch als sie eines Tages einem vorlauten Frosch begegnet und ihn küsst, verwandelt sie sich urplötzlich selbst in einen Frosch.
Auf ihrer abenteuerlichen Suche nach einer gutmütigen Voodoo-Queen, die den Zauber rückgängig machen soll, streift das Froschpaar durch die Sümpfe der Bayous und begegnet dabei urkomischen Gestalten wie dem Trompete spielenden Alligator Louis und dem romantischen Glühwürmchen Ray.

"Janine Utell's Engagements with Narrative is a wide-ranging, well-informed, and appealing introduction to narrative studies. Its highlights include explications of cutting-edge theory, interviews with a diverse group of contemporary scholars, and provocative engagements with numerous print,film, graphic, and digital, narratives." James Phelan, Distinguished University Professor, The Ohio State University, USA
'Clear and authoritative, with interesting historical tidbits and flashes of wit, this is an introduction to narrative that will help anyone quickly understand the basics of the field. Janine Utell explains key concepts and then shows how they work in exemplary texts. The abundant, wide-ranging examples--from classic literature, graphic novels, film, and t.v.-- keep the writing lively and consistently reinforce the many, intersecting identities and modes of narration in the stories we tell and how we understand them.' Anne E. Fernald, Professor of English, Fordham University, USA
'Engagements with Narrative is an excellent short introduction to its subject, and should prove greatly useful to students and instructors alike. Janine Utell clearly and engagingly addresses the elements of narrative and how they work in a wide variety of stories, from classic novels to recent films and graphic novels. Everyone will learn something from this rich volume--I certainly did.' Adam Potkay, William R. Kenan Professor of Humanities, The College of William & Mary, USA
'Engagements with Narrative is a lively introduction to narrative theory in its many forms. Particularly clear-eyed in its analyses of feminist plotting, it offers a broad range of approaches and examples, from modal philosophy to cognitive theory, Austen to Capote to Dangarembga. Each chapter ends by helpfully supplementing Utell’s perspective with questionnaire responses by other scholars in the field.' Paul Saint-Amour, Associate Professor of English, University of Pennsylvania, USA
'Wonderful — Janine Utell has given us by far the most enjoyable and accessible introduction to story-making. Her book explores how the world of a ‘good story’ is constructed, encouraging readers to engage with key concepts, media and critical practices. More than this, she stimulates her readers to discover their own ideas and insights as they figure out how exemplary stories are shaped and structured. Highly recommended.' Nicholas Roe, Professor of English, University of St. Andrews, UK
'Janine Utell explores narratology in writing that is itself lucid and unpretentious. The style sets off her remarkable erudition as the perfect setting does a fine gem. This is a book that will become a classic.' David Cowart, Louise Fry Scudder Professor of Humanities, University of South Carolina, USA
"[Engagements with narrative] is meant for those serious about literary theory and about deconstructing something inaccessible to make it accessible. Summing Up: Recommended." - S. L. Rottschafer, Aquinas College in CHOICE

Engagements with Narrative

A Murder of Crows (Darcy Sweet Mystery, #7)

More than a collection of essays, this eminently readable and thought-provoking volume makes plain the importance of recognizing - and addressing - addiction's many complex causes. Its call for, and articulation of, "critical addiction studies" will be highly useful to educators from a wide range of disciplines, including sociology, anthropology, neurobiology, public policy, criminology, and psychology.

-Katherine Beckett, Sociology, University of Washington

During a period when the addiction-as-disease paradigm is increasingly dominating scientific and policy discourse across a wide range of domains, this remarkable and timely anthology provides a much-needed corrective to the influence of biological reductionism and the simplification of a complex and multi-faceted phenomenon. 　Brilliantly compiled and introduced, Expanding Addiction reminds us of the inadequacies of considering what are called addictive behaviours in the absence of historical and socio-cultural contexts. 　It is essential reading for students and policymakers alike.
-David R. Bewley-Taylor, International Relations and Public Policy, Swansea University, and author of International Drug Control: Consensus Fractured. 　　　
With popular television shows like Addicted airing alongside of an ever-expanding drug treatment industry, why do we still know so little about addiction? Expanding Addiction provides an answer. This essential book is a much-needed addition to knowledge in the field of addiction. Granfield and Reinarman’s rich anthology introduces readers to critical addiction studies -- a sociological analysis of addiction. This outstanding anthology consists of groundbreaking classical foundational and contemporary essays by leading experts that challenge the disease model and narrow neurological explanations of addiction. The authors examine the historical construction of addiction and make clear how social, political, and cultural factors shape our ideas about addiction, social responses, and treatment of people classified as "addicts." Expanding Addiction also challenges readers to reexamine why more and more behaviors such as gambling, sexual desire, and computer use are labeled addiction and question why coerced treatment and punishment are central to a growing treatment industry. Expanding Addiction is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding and changing the way our society deals with addiction.
-Susan Boyd, Faculty of Human and Social Development, University of Victoria
This collection of essays shows how behaviors labeled as addictive are in fact socially constructed, and much more scientifically understood as occurring in a social and political context than as behaviors resulting from "possession" of the brain by a foreign substance. 　The introductory chapter alone would advance a reader's understanding of what is called addictive behavior more than all the newspaper and magazine articles most people have read in the last 25 years. 　If there is an antidote for disinformation, this book is it.

-Ira Glasser, current President, Drug Policy Alliance

Both the study of addiction and the practice of treatment have long been dominated by a narrow view of addiction as simply a problem of individual biology—as a "disease of the brain." In this rich and timely collection, Granfield and Reinarman bring together both classic and recent arguments that help to right the balance, highlighting the often neglected social, economic, cultural and political contexts that shape both the experience of addiction and its very definition. Expanding Addiction is essential reading for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of addiction and more intelligent social policies to address it.
-Elliott Currie, Criminology, Law, and Society, University of California, Irvine, author of Reckoning: Drugs, the Cities, and the American Future and Crime and Punishment in America.
