From the reviews:“The chapters have been written … in a clear but concise manner, with historical contexts provided to interest readers. … aimed at medical practitioners and scientists; it is relevant to cell biologists, pharmacologists and physiologists … . I will be ordering several copies for our library as I consider this to be an exciting new topic which will provide an important foundation for future anti-inflammatory drug therapies … and which is of interest to both newcomers and experts in the field.” (Helen Griffiths, Inflammation Research, Vol. 59, 2010)

The Resolution of Inflammation

"Reading the early pages of this rich, romantic, lushly descriptive memoir of Zeppa's three years in the tiny Buddhist kingdom just south of Tibet, I counted my cushy American blessings...But by the end, I not only got why Zeppa stayed in Bhutan... I actually envied her experience. Her tale is part love story, part history lesson and part Buddhism 101...Zeppa writes romantically without romanticizing, and her fascinating story is something you'll marvel at the first time and want to go back to again and again." --Mademoiselle"Heartfelt...a good reminder that your passport, both literally and figuratively, can open up an entire world of possibilities." --Harper's Bazaar"Zeppa's story sheds the customary contours of the year-abroad memoir and starts to become something more like a memoir of conversion, a testament of newfound faith." --The New York Times Book Review"A joy to read." --Chicago Tribune

"Perceptive, erudite, delightful."&mdash;Elie Wiesel"This book is the result of a lifetime of study of the Hebrew Bible by a mature scholar whose love of the Tanakh, and especially of the Psalter, shines through on every page. It is a beautiful book written in a poetic style worthy of the psalms themselves."&mdash;James A. Sanders, Professor of Biblical Studies, The School of Theology at Claremont, and President of the Ancient Biblical Manuscript Center"A towering scholar elucidates not only the scholarly issues involved in the psalms, but also the way these powerful religious texts impart their emotional and spiritual message. Sarna leaves us with a fresh understanding of the Psalter that will inspire Jew and Christian alike."&mdash;Hershel Shanks, Editor of Bible Review and Biblical Archaeology Review"The psalms speak to every aspect of the human condition, and are as timely today as when they were first written. Their message comes through with strength and beauty in Nahum Sarna's work."&mdash;Robert McAfee Brown, Professor Emeritus of Theology and Ethics, Pacific School of Religion

On the Book of Psalms

“…by insisting on contentiousness and unstable characters of identities and politics that are continuously reproduced within and across the region, the collection testifies to an innovative attitude, providing an insightful framework for the understanding of the Mediterranean as a complicated whole.”  ·  Social Anthropology/Anthropologie sociale

	“This volume makes…significant interdisciplinary contributions that reach out to scholars or practitioners interested in the relations between spatial and social processes…The Mediterranean boasts plenty of examples of physical contact spaces being systematically destroyed, or divided as a trickle-down effect of identity and political conflict at higher levels. Not only does the richness of case studies in this collection offer a powerful illustration of the experience of geopolitics beyond the national scale, but it also provides a useful tool for ethnographers and practitioners alike.”  ·  Society and Space – Environment and Planning D

	“This excellent and timely collection of essays follows in the wake of several recent works that constitute what can be discerned as a revival in studies of the Mediterranean region. Far from a return to outmoded social anthropological models of the area, or a recapitulation of tourist-industry driven fantasies of shared cultural values, the essays gathered here cast a critical eye, and ear, on the ways in which the Mediterranean has been reconceived and performed in the context of national and transnational programs of political and economic consolidation…the book adds considerably to our understanding of the politics of place and culture in this contested region and will be essential reading for students and scholars of the region for years to come.”  ·  Anthropos

	“It is well known that Charles Tilly left scholars of big structures, large processes, and huge comparisons a tall research agenda. It is less acknowledged that he also left political ethnographers an impressive and provocative set of tools. In the skilled hands of the contributors to this insightful volume, the ‘Tilly toolbox’ is put to good work in the service of a theory-driven and empirically-grounded exploration of Mediterranean contentious landscapes.”  ·  Javier Auyero, University of Texas, Austin; Editor, Qualitative Sociology

	“Contested Mediterranean Spaces rescues a cultural geography from the essentialist circularities to which it was once often reduced. These authors examine how circum-Mediterranean identities, at every level from the clan to the nation-state, exhibit the complex impact of ideological and political manipulation. They show how this hothouse of Europe’s self-ascribed cultural origins has been characteristically prey to spatial cleansing, gentrification, and bigotry; they also document a regional activism that seeks more tolerant and environmentally benign futures. By problematizing the political and intellectual manipulations as well as the ideological tensions that inform such revivals of the Mediterranean as category and concept, they persuasively refurbish a tired regionalism with refreshing critical and comparative interest.”   ·  Michael Herzfeld, Harvard University; Author of Evicted from Eternity: The Restructuring of Rome

Interpretation: A Bible Commentary for Teaching and Preaching

"Rarely has Schelling been written about with such clarity and passion: McGrath's careful research clinches the argument that the theosophical tradition of Boehme as received by Schellingian philosophy constitutes the root of the unconscious."- Paul Bishop, University of Glasgow, UK
"This book deals with Schelling's theory of the unconscious and examines its complex, critical relations to psychoanalysis and psychology, showing that it constitutes a theory of mental health, an entire psychology, which stands on its own. Moreover, it demonstrates the centrality not only of theology but also of the esoteric tradition in Schelling's philosophy, and carefully traces the development of his thought in that essential context." - Professor James Bradley, Memorial University, Newfoundland, Canada
"McGrath's The Dark Ground of Spirit is among the most imaginative, original, at at times exhilarating, studies of Schelling to appear in recent years. Although he carefully charts the full historical trajectory, including the difficult late work on philosophical religion, of what he calls Schelling's "style" of thinking, he does so in order to carefully unpack the problem of the unconsciousness. This allows him to make a powerful case for a uniquely Schellingian style of psychoanalysis. McGrath's pursuit of what Schelling's student Schubert felicitously dubbed the 'night-side of nature" performs a delicate bi-directional hermeneutic. On the one hand, McGrath contextualizes the work of Schelling in relationship to Boehme, Baader, and other indispensable thinkers, giving us a fuller sense of Schelling's fundamental philosophical impulse. On the other hand, this is an expansive work of 'hermeneutical refraction,' carrying Schelling's 'thought forward into contexts that it does not and cannot anticipate.' Contrasting Schelling with Freud, Jung, and Lacan, McGrath discovers a 'theory of the libido in its own right." - Jason Wirth, Seattle University, Washington, USA
