"For a modern intellectual culture that distrusts trust and prefers analysis to exegesis, the very notion of early Christian philosophy is apt to be an uncomfortable stretch. But Mark Edwards and company do not retreat to the safe, if vacuous, conjunction: early Christianity and philosophy, as if one were a prosthesis for the other. This volume’s concise forays into a still surprisingly unfamiliar intellectual landscape bring ancient philosophy into the heart of early Christian exegesis. The introduction by Edwards brilliantly articulates the stakes of following along." 
- James Wetzel, Villanova University, USA

"This well-conceived collection of studies makes a powerful case that ancient Christians took philosophy seriously and historians of ancient philosophy need to take Christians seriously." 
– George Boys-Stones, University of Toronto, Canada
"The Routledge Handbook of Early Christian Philosophy is a much welcome tool for students and researchers alike. Thanks to the excellent work of an international scholarly team of the highest calibre, the volume rightly moves away from the simplistic dualism of 'reason versus faith' that still hinders a sophisticated understanding of Early Christianity’s complex ties to pagan philosophy, and it showcases, in a truly comprehensive fashion, their substantial areas of intersection in the first centuries of our era. The contributors demonstrate that the Christians’ engagement with the tools, tropes, and themes of pagan philosophy was not just considerably more constructive and dynamic than is often recognized, but that this very engagement was also a necessary enterprise for Christians."

"Hu and Chen have written the definitive account of Shanghai’s Pudong New Area. The text, supplemented by excellent maps and data graphics, documents how Deng Xiaoping’s bold strategy preserved and deepened China’s ‘reform and opening-up’ and generated a booming new centre of finance, science, and innovation of 5 million people. Pudong can also serve as a model for other dynamic hubs in the world city network. Meticulously researched and clearly presented for a world audience, Global Shanghai Remade is a ‘must read’ for planners and policy makers interested in planning history, global cities, urban design, place making, iconic architecture, city branding, urban governance, innovation, the world economy, and urban planning with Chinese characteristics."
Richard LeGates, Professor Emeritus of Urban Studies & Planning, San Francisco State University

"Hu and Chen’s compelling and richly illustrated biography of Shanghai’s Pudong New Area contributes a remarkable and much needed dimension to our understanding of urban growth. Employing keen historical analysis, these authors have captured, as no others, the vivid dynamics of rapid urbanisation that propelled the ‘Dragon’s Head’ with its bright ‘Eye’ into the highest ranks of global cities."

Eugenie L. Birch, Nussdorf Professor of Urban Research, University of Pennsylvania
"Global Shanghai Remade is the most comprehensive and detailed analysis of the making of Pudong produced to date. Its scope deals with the finance, planning, design and construction of Pudong in an accessible manner that students of Chinese urbanisation will relish. For anyone looking to understand China’s rise as a global finance and political superpower one must appreciate the making of Pudong as a key part of the infrastructure needed to platform China’s emergence. Hu and Chen have produced the definitive study of the ambition and execution of that infrastructure. This story is key to understanding China today."

PRAISE FOR JONAH LEHRER AND A BOOK ABOUT LOVE:  &ldquo;Good writers make writing look easy, but what people like Lehrer do is not easy at all. . . .&nbsp;Jonah Lehrer has a lot to offer the world.&rdquo;&nbsp;&mdash;David Brooks, The New York Times Book Review  "Lehrer is a talent. . . .

Praise for Working on a Song:&#160;"Working On A Song is one of the best books about lyric writing for the theater I've read. Up there w the Sondheim Tomes and Ira Gershwin's book.

"Adventures in the Aid Trade stands alone for the extraordinary range of experience and insight it presents. I know of no other book quite like it…For all who work in development or aspire to do so, it is a grounded and invaluable source of learning and inspiration. It is a rich source of ideas for how we can do better. I commend it to all development professionals, whatever their roles, as an engaging read and a fertile source of learning." -- Robert Chambers, OBE
"Adventures in the Aid Trade is at once memoir, "how-to"manual, reflexive critique, and globe trotting picaresque narrative. Full of insight, humour, and heart, Richard Holloway has produced an essential text for students, scholars, and practitioners of development alike. It is also a great read." -- Larry Swatuk, Professor at the School of Environment, Enterprise and Development, University of Waterloo, Canada

"Meenakshi Mukerji's work is both intricate and lovely. She's greatly respected in the origami world, one of the well-known world leaders in modular origami. Her books offer a nice exposition of the mathematical elements, but you're not being hit over the head with math lessons. You learn things without even realizing that you have." 
–Dr. Robert J. Lang
"Meenakshi Mukerji is one of today's masters of modular origami, designs comprised of multiple pieces of paper. She also brings her ingenuity and creativity to designs made from a single piece of paper. Among the most appealing aspects of her single sheet work is the way she subtly manipulates a purely geometric form to fold a flower, a leaf, a butterfly, or card suits." 
–Peter Engel
"Meenakshi Mukerji's new book Wondrous One Sheet Origami is not simply an origami instruction book. It is a celebration of the myriad wonders of the natural world and the infinite variety of their color and form. Mukerji recreates this rich world with her ingenious sense of design and shares it with readers using clear, accessible instructions. A valuable addition to any origami library!"
–Meher McArthur

"The Wondrous One Sheet Origami by Meenakshi Mukerji is exactly the kind of thing our members like to fold. The more advanced fractal designs at the end of the book found a lot of interest, and some of the flower folds were so inviting that many wanted to fold them right away"
–Anna Kastlunger, Origami Society of Austria
"This is an updated and extended edition of a book that was first published in 2013. The 35 models range from simple designs to complex recursives, and there are a number of variations of the classics, [. . .] Many of the models were designed by Meenakshi Mukerji herself, but there are also contributions from Evan Zodl, Dasa Serova, Christiane Bettens, and Roman Diaz/Endre Somos. [. . .] The second edition includes 39 additional pages and 15 new models, [ . . .] The diagrams are clear and generally easy to follow, and there's advice on experimentation so you can create variations of some of the flower designs. [. . .] The print quality is high, and there are full-colour photographs of many of the models. In conclusion, this book is definitely worth adding to your collection [. . .] This edition also available in ebook form for the more technologically minded."
–Stephen Hill, British Origami Society

"Profusely illustrated with clear step-by-step instructions, Wondrous One Sheet Origami is thoroughly 'user friendly' in tone, commentary, organization and presentation. While especially and unreservedly recommended for school, community and academic library Origami instructional reference collections, it should be noted for the personal lists of students, professionals, and non-specialist general readers with an interest in the subject."
–The Crafts Shelf, Midwest Book Review

"Schaan's research in varied parts of the Brazilian Amazon is groundbreaking in the application of state-of-the-art methods and inspiring in terms of its theoretical relevance and insight.  Here she brings her diverse experience to bear on the question of sacred geographies which linked groups across the vast tropical lowlands and were critical features in the organization of the region's little known civilizations."--Michael Heckenberger, University of Florida"Historical ecological approaches have made important contributions, dispelling the myth that the environment constitutes an objective reality transcending the social context of its production and experience. At the same time, this perspective is equally critical of theories that reduce landscapes to a cultural construction and ignore the agency of meaningful places. Inspired by this approach, Schaan (Federal State Univ. of Pari, Brazil) has written an engaging study of the anthropogenic landscapes of the pre-Columbian Amazon, focusing on the development of the mound centers of the Marajoara culture. The author compares prehistoric land management practices with similar traditions in other regions of the Amazon. Compiling available archaeological data, her analysis successfully debunks the commonplace belief that the Amazon represents a pristine environment, and it provides a convincing reconstruction of the anthropogenically dynamic and diverse landscapes of the Amazonian Basin. Schaan further examines the intersection of managed ecology with Marajoara funerary rites, ancestor worship, social memory, and cosmology and devotes a chapter interpreting the remarkable geoglyphs of the western Amazonian region. The author concludes her study with a pointed critique of government development programs that disregard indigenous knowledge and ecological stewardship. For students of Amazonian archaeology and scholars interested in human-environment relations. Summing Up: Recommended."--CHOICE"The conclusion of [this] remarkable work, demonstrat[es] how human agency is such a transformative force in the Amazonian landscape since ancient times. Schaan shows us that for an extensive time the indigenous peoples in the Amazon have achieved landscape management through massive earthworks, fish farming, and plant domestication. Through ethnoarchaeology, Schaan also demonstrates that the indigenous peoples today are an important factor in maintaining the Amazon forest for the future. Today the impact of cattle ranching, mining activities, and dam construction in the deforestation of the Amazon is a reality, and such an important study like this can be the key to reveal that the symbiotic co-existence between humans and nature is indeed very old.

Stanton drawsvignettes of the other pigs &#8220;grunting and rooting and wallowing and&#8230;&#8221; (youguessed it&#8212;pooping, graphically). Peddles &#8220;thought about the usual pig thingsdifferently,&#8221; writes Stanton as she shows him fantasizing about speaking actualwords (&#8220;Howdy!&#8221;), bathing in a tub, and sitting on a toilet with a newspaper.The sight of a hoedown gives Peddles a new idea&#8212;he wants to dance! His attemptsto walk in a pair of discarded cowboy boots might have led his fellow pigs tomake fun of him. Instead, they help him stand, then try on some footwear oftheir own. Peddles is an eccentric, but he can also be understood as a stand-infor a child starting down the road toward adulthood, trying on big shoes anddreaming about doing grown-up things. He&#8217;s easy to love, and his porcinecompanions seem like the nicest of friends&#8212;even if they aren&#8217;t toilet-trained.
