&#8220;Poetically graceful. . . .Combines history and morality with a dynamic intelligence.&#8221; --The New York Times &#8220;The story of Civil War-era America, magnificently told.&#8221; --The Washington Post&#8220;The scope of Walk Through Darkness is immeasurably grand, and its story involves us on a primal, irresistible level.&#8221;--Newsday &#8220;David Anthony Durham&#8230; has formed his own inclusive and original vision of American society, nourished by a nuanced understanding of history and an intuitive, almost spooky feel for the inner lives of its inhabitants&#8230;. Walk Through Darkness remains a hugely ambitious book that leaves the reader wondering, and waiting for, what Durham will do next.&#8221; --The New York Times Book Review&#8220;Black and white was never so gray, and gray was never so vibrant as it streams across [these] pages. . . Durham remains not just a startlingly poetic African-American voice but a welcome voice in the rich spectrum of American letters.&#8221;&#8211;Denver Post &#8220;Walk Through Darkness gets under your skin and stays there. In language both disturbing and haunting, Durham presents a many-layered story of love and race and, ultimately, the very issue of humanity itself. With masterful ease he plumbs the crevices of our collective consciousness and reveals not only the terrible truths but also the lustrous beauties that reside there.&#8221;&#8211;Jeffrey Lent, author of In the Fall&#8220;Evocative and finely wrought. . . resonates with the great American historical irony.&#8221;&#8211;San Francisco Chronicle&#8220;Part love story, part historical drama, Durham achieves something that lesser authors can only dream of: He blends the various elements of his novel seamlessly, integrating a number of disparate characters, settings and ideas into a lyrical, cohesive whole.&#8221;&#8211;The News & Observer (Raleigh, NC)&#8220;Rich, evocative. . . A complex story that is uniquely American.&#8221;&#8211;Philadelphia Tribune&#8220;Complex, brilliantly written and deeply engaging, Walk Through Darkness shows a young novelist building on his formidable narrative gifts to produce a powerful work of historical fiction.&#8221;&#8211;BookPage&#8220;Powerfully written and emotionally devastating. . . Durham&#8217;s writing is forceful and full of startling imagery.&#8221;&#8211;Publishers Weekly (starred)

From the reviews:“The editors and chapter authors have produced a very informative book. The intended audience is wide ranging and includes ethicists, philosophers, physicians, psychologists, attorneys, and legislators. … Written and edited by international experts in the field, this is a welcome addition to neuroethics. It covers an increasingly important issue for our society, cognitive enhancement.” (Michael Joel Schrift, Doody’s Book Reviews, August, 2013)

&#8220;Rich cultures value thin women, and poor cultures fat women, but all male-dominant cultures value weakness in women. That&#8217;s why Colette Dowling&#8217;s The Frailty Myth is radical in its well-reasoned, readable, wise expos&#233; of the reality, importance, and future of female strength.&#8221;         &#8212;Gloria Steinem&#8220;Required reading . . . [a] strong argument against [the] &#8216;weaker-sex&#8217; stereotype.&#8221;&#8212;Chicago Sun-Times&#8220;In the twenty-first century, Americans are going to have to rethink the idea of the physical inferiority of women because of books like The Frailty Myth. Dowling overturns the old Victorian idea that women are the weaker sex. . . . This is a call to arms for female athleticism among girls and women of all ages.&#8221;&#8212;Joan Jacobs Brumberg, author of The Body Project: An Intimate History of American Girls and Fasting Girls: The History of Anorexia Nervosa

&#8220;A high-heeled walk on the wild side, Tracy Quan&#8217;s Diary of a Manhattan Call Girl is a nifty trick of a first novel, combining sexual slapstick with luxury-goods, hotel-lobby sociology, exposing female vanity and male self-delusion with equal aplomb. Juggling cell-phone calls and quirky clients, Quan&#8217;s Nancy Chan is like a Henry Miller heroine with the meter running, bouncing from one trampoline event to another while always keeping an eye on the bottom line. What will shock many is not the explicit play-by-play action but the knockabout, offhand humor&#8211;that&#8217;s what shocked people about Henry Miller, too. No artificial sweeteners here: Quan&#8217;s adventures in the skin trade deliver a cocktail kick.&#8221;  &#8211;James Wolcott, author of The Catsitters&#8220;Nancy Chan is a working girl I can totally relate to, recognize&#8211;and imagine sharing my clients with. Addictive, entertaining, and fun to read, this book tells it like it is. Tracy Quan reveals trade secrets and shatters a lot of myths, while creating an accurate picture of what it&#8217;s like to be a New York call girl at the turn of the millennium.&#8221; &#8211;Xaviera Hollander, author of The Happy Hooker"If you want to know the secrets of the trade, pick this one up." &#8212;Jackie Collins"New York's latest literary sensation" &#8212;The Independent "Frank, fizzy, and not for the faint-hearted." &#8212;Mail on Sunday"Her sex scenes are delightful" &#8212;The Times (London)"A sassy read about a sparky New Yorker trying to juggle her professional and private life...a startling debut." &#8212;The Mirror

"Readers will welcome this collection of insightful essays on the ways in which Buddhist perspectives inform some of the ethical issues facing the modern world. . . . An engrossing and very topical read."&mdash;Mandala Magazine, Editor's Choice  "I found myself personally engaged with the questions raised by these great scholars, and I am grateful to have had such rich food for thought. . . . Careful and critical examination of the multiple sides of an issue is consistent throughout this collection. . . . The essays collected in Destroying Mara Forever do not shy away from questioning the relevance of foundational doctrine to answer today's greatest ethical dilemmas and do so in pointed and respectful debate that leads one to continue that questioning and apply it to other issues."&mdash;Feminist Review
