Richard Roeper presents: American gambling—

How I Gambled Over a Grand a Day for 30

easy yet engaging read.” —Publishers Weekly on Schlock Value

• Author’s previous books sold more than 150,000 copies
During the course of 30 days in early 2009, Richard Roeper
risked more than a quarter million dollars on practically every
method of gambling currently available in America. Chronicling
his wild ride in a breezy, humorous manner, this entertaining
exploration both celebrates and details the many pitfalls and
lures through Roeper’s stories about his lifelong affair with gam-
bling. With insight and aplomb, the narrative answers the ques-
tions What is it like to bet money you don’t have, knowing that
if you lose, you’re in serious trouble? What is it like to play in a
poker tournament alongside celebrities and world champions?
and What are the 10 best gambling movies of all time? This
delightful dalliance proves that the true national pastimes aren’t
baseball, basketball, or football, but instead fantasy football,
March Madness, poker, slots, the lottery, craps, blackjack,
church raffles, and bingo.

“True to form, Heylin digs deep—way deep—into the songs,
mixing cold hard facts with illuminating anecdotes.”
—Acoustic Guitar on Revolution in the Air
“An exhaustive look at one of the 20th century’s best and prolif-

songs.” —Vancouver Province on Revolution in the Air

The second of two volumes, this companion to every song that
Bob Dylan has yet written is the most comprehensive examina-
tion of Dylan’s oeuvre. Arranged in a chronology of when they
were written rather than when they appeared on albums, the
songs are accompanied by surprising facts and information.
Using newly discovered manuscripts, anecdotal evidence, and a
seemingly limitless knowledge of every Bob Dylan live perform-
ance, the research uncovers answers to such questions as What
were Dylan’s contributions to the Traveling Wilburys? Who were
the women that inspired the songs on Blood on the Tracks and
Desire? What material was appropriated for Love and Theft and
Modern Times? Why was “Blind Willie McTell” left off of
Infidels? and What broke his long dry spell in the 1990s? This is Excerpt:

sized carving patterns and step-by-step demonstrations.
Additional information about hardware, hooks, and jointed lures

Inspiring projects that create
a world of one’s own
impressions
Monet
Noel Gregory
Capturing the movement and lyricism of Claude Monet’s most
celebrated works, artists of all skill levels will eagerly approach
this step-by-step study of the impressionist master. This close
chronicle of the artist’s technique will train beginning and inter-
mediate hands in mimicking Monet’s composition, the ways of
gestural brushstrokes, color selection, and subjective interpreta-
tion. Including a range of Monet’s most celebrated subjects—
such as poppy fields, water lilies, and the Grand Canal in
Venice—six tracing papers make getting started quick and easy.
With additional guidance on determining the fundamental
shapes within each study, novices can share in the infectious
enthusiasm Monet poured into his own masterworks. Two origi-
nal artworks that borrow the basic concepts of impressionism
are included as well, offering direction to newly inspired students
as they take their easels out of the studio and into the streets and
fields to capture the world as they see it—just like Monet.

his work internationally. He is the author of Flowers in Oils,

Inspiring projects that honor
a master’s expressive style
Van Gogh
Michael Sanders
Like taking a lesson with the master himself, this introduction to
the style and technique of Vincent Van Gogh is for beginners and
more experienced painters alike. An unmatched master during the
Postimpressionist period, Van Gogh’s style evokes a more expres-
sive image, and this collection features an assortment of his most
celebrated subjects—such as peasant farmers clearing their fields,
a provincial village at dusk, a sunflower still-life, and the artist’s
thatched-seat chair and pipe. Accompanying each project is a set
of detailed photographs that demonstrate the unique short brush-
strokes that Van Gogh employed for his most distinct style. Six
reusable tracing papers are included, so establishing a balanced
composition is quick and easy; and while Van Gogh worked
mostly with oil paints, this resource translates his technique and
colorization to the more utilitarian acrylic medium.

Our First Topsy-Turvy Year Fostering
Orphan Dogs
Barrie Hawkins
“Uplifting true story of how the author and his wife became
involved in dog rescue and rehoming. There are plenty of tears
and smiles along the way.” —Your Dog magazine
Heartwarming and often hilarious, this true story follows a year
in the life of Barrie and Dorothy Hawkins, a couple who get
more than they bargained for when they decide to rescue and
foster orphan dogs. Each canine arrival has a surprise in store:
Monty has a taste for cheese; Oscar has never been walked or
played with, but he develops a new zest for life at age 12; and
Digby, an enormous guard dog, is a squasher—if he’s not squash-
ing the daisies, he is squashing Barrie’s foot. Always game, Barrie
and Dorothy welcome all the dogs that come into their hearts
and home, doing whatever it takes to change the dogs’ lives—
and their own in the process.
Barrie Hawkins is an author of business books and an experi-
enced public speaker who gives talks about his rescue work. He
has presented a six-week series about caring for foster dogs on
BBC Radio Cambridge.

Excerpt:
Since we had started the rescue work we had become friends with a police dog handler. Now I realised the truth of what he had told
us: you haven’t got control of a dog unless you can get it to come. The secret, he had said, was to be more interesting than what the
dog was doing. His advice was to squat down to the level of the dog, so you’re not towering above him like a threatening giant. Then
waggle your fingers about in the grass as if you are trying to find something.
I squatted down. Immediately, I realised that my head was about level with the dog’s teeth. My movement must have caught the
attention of Lion-Maned Dog; he turned his head. I put a hand down and wiggled my fingers about.
Some dogs have faces which allow you to read more easily what they are thinking. Lion-Maned Dog had such a face. And it seemed
to me he was thinking, What’s that idiot doing? He quickly turned back to resume his excavations of the current gap.
“Ooohhh . . . What’s this?” I said. Then, excitedly, “Ooohhh—look what I’ve found!"
Lion-Maned Dog turned his head for the briefest of looks then hurried on to the next gap. The next gap was the one big enough to
provide his ticket to freedom.
In case Finding Something Interesting hasn’t worked, our dog handler friend had gone on to reveal the Technique That Never Fails.
He told us that he himself had only ever done this once. It had been taught to him at police dog training school as the ultimate
weapon. He told us it took guts.
From the squatting-down Finding-Something-Interesting position, roll over onto your back. Stick all four arms and legs up into the
air and move them all about simultaneously in a cycling motion. Think of a beetle that’s rolled over onto its back and can’t get up
again. No dog can resist that, the handler said—he’ll have to come over to see what’s happened.

Optimal training to ensure a comfortable-

riding, happy, horse-and-rider relationship
The Gaited Horse Bible

Training & Riding Naturally Gaited Horses
Brenda Imus
Riding, training, and caring for gaited horses requires spe-
cial training techniques, and this comprehensive, instruc-
tional manual thoroughly explains the ins and outs of
working more humanely and effectively with every kind of
gaited horse, including Paso Finos, Tennessee Walking
Horses, and Missouri Fox Trotters. The basic tenets of this
guide’s philosophy include proper hoofcare, appropriate
bitting, correct saddle-fitting, and an educated riding style
for optimizing the horses’ natural gaits. These techniques
will prevent back, hock, and stifle problems, as well as
solve common nagging problems in performance and
behavior, resulting in the happy relationship that both the
rider and horse deserve.
Brenda Imus is a horse breeder and trainer, a gaited horse
clinician, an inventor, and a writer. She is the author of sev-
eral books, including From the Ground Up and Heavenly
Gaits, and her articles have appeared in multiple publica-
tions such as EQUUS magazine, Horse & Horseman,
Horse and Rider, Trail Rider Magazine, and Western
Horseman. She lives in Kennedy, New York.

Classical instruction from a premier master rider
Kottas on Dressage
Arthur Kottas-Heldenberg and Julie Rowbotham
A distillation of the practice and philosophy of prominent inter-
national dressage trainers, this guide is instructive to those who
aspire to classical horsemanship principles. A rider must first
train themselves in correct posture and a thorough understand-
ing of the aids before training the horse, according to the philos-
ophy within this manual. Next, the volume highlights the value
of establishing rapport with the horse, enhancing the animal’s
mental responses, and developing its physique with groundwork
before progressing to training under the saddle. Filled with
detailed notes and remedies for common problems, the text
focuses on thorough, incremental development of the basic gaits,
explains the value and execution of the lateral exercises, and
introduces advanced work including tempi changes, pirouettes,
piaffe, and passage.
Arthur Kottas-Heldenberg is a classical dressage trainer and runs
horsemanship clinics internationally. He was a member of the
world-renowned Spanish Riding School in Vienna for more than
40 years, spending the last seven in the esteemed position of First
Chief Rider. Julie Rowbotham is a dressage trainer with Aspire

beauty and complexity to casual readers as well as to more seri-

her spirituality with sensitivity and balance. And he has managed

“Leo Panitch has stood out in recent years as one of the socialist

other social movements with great clarity.” —Irish Left Review
“Greg Albo, Sam Gindin, and Leo Panitch provide a perceptive,
and persuasive, analysis of the origins of the crisis, arguing that
the Left must go beyond the demand for re-regulation, which,
they assert, will not solve the economic or environmental crisis,
and must instead demand public control of the banks and the
financial sector, and of the uses to which finance is put. This is
an important book that should be read widely, especially by
those hoping to revitalize the Left.” —Barbara Epstein,
professor, UC Santa Cruz

rigor, and commitment.” —David Abraham, law professor,

Translated by Donald Nicholson-Smith
“The most striking aspect of Vaneigem’s compendium of Free
Spirit Lore is his ability to release the material into the present . . .
you can almost feel the whole great edifice of social order—their
Church, our capitalist democracy—gather itself up, take a deep
breath, and run.” —Greil Marcus, author, Lipstick Traces
on The Movement of the Free Spirit
One of the most important exponents of Situationist ideas presents
an impassioned critique of modern capitalism in this important
cornerstone of modern radical thought. Originally published in
early 1968, it both kindled and colored the May 1968 upheavals
in France, which captured the attention of the world. Naming and
defining the alienating features of everyday life in consumer socie-
ty—survival rather than living in full, the call to sacrifice, the culti-
vation of false needs, the dictatorship of the commodity, subjection
to social roles, and the replacement of God by the economy—the
book argues that the countervailing impulses that exist within
deep alienation—creativity, spontaneity, poetry—present an
authentic alternative to nilhilistic consumerism. This carefully edit-
ed new translation marks the first North American publication of
this important work and includes a new preface by the author.

entirely reduced to the idiotic machine, the lethargic puppet, that
all this implies. For brief moments his daily life must generate an
energy which, if only it were not rechannelled, dispersed, and
squandered in roles, would suffice to overthrow the world of sur-
vival. Who can gauge the striking-power of an impassioned day-
dream, of pleasure taken in love, of a nascent desire, of a rush of
sympathy? Everyone seeks spontaneously to extend such brief
moments of real life; everyone wants basically to make some-
thing whole out of their everyday life. But conditioning succeeds
in making most of us pursue these moments in exactly the wrong
way—by way of the inhuman—with the result that we lose what
we most want at the very moment we attain it.

Fare Straight from the Produce Aisle
• Part of the Tofu Hound Press series
Weaving together personal stories with 120 appetizing recipes,
this friendly cookbook delivers authentically American and
vegan cuisine that has to be tasted to be believed. Midwestern-
inspired recipes range from very basic to the modestly complicat-
ed, but always with an eye on creating something beautiful and
delicious in its simplicity. Clear text provides step-by-step
instructions and helps new cooks find their feet in a vegan
kitchen, with a whole chapter devoted to terms, tools, and tech-
niques. With an eye towards improvisation, the cookbook pro-
vides a detailed basic recipe that is good as-is, while providing
additional notes that explain how to take each recipe further—to
increase flavor, to add drama to the presentation, or just to add
extra flourish.

The Art and Design

of Contemporary Wine Labels
Tanya Scholes
Foreword by Michael Mondavi
• Co-op available
Featuring outstanding wine-label designs from more than 250
international vintners, this illustrated survey highlights leading
designers who have elevated the design of wine labels to an art
form. Tracing the history of wine-label design from its early use
as a simple utilitarian way of cellaring wine to its contemporary
role as the visual voice of the winemaker, this guide features full-
color wine labels that have been praised for their bold graphics,
unique illustrations, beautiful typography, captivating photogra-
phy, and powerful words. Each entry includes a profile of the
wine, the name and contact information of the producer, the
country of origin, and details on the design firms and artists
responsible for the labels’ creation. Interviews with the winemak-
ers and designers reveal fascinating stories about the designs,
such as the curious images hidden in the steam of an iron on the
Dirty Laundry wine label; how the pairing of a donkey and a
goat represent a shared philosophy and approach to the craft for
a husband and wife winemaking duo; and the true meaning
behind Bonny Doon’s illustrative Il Fiasco label. Showcasing
originality and creativity, these labels offer intrigue and enter-
tainment, adding another layer of conversation to the experience
of drinking a fine bottle of wine.

The Science Behind the Microwave, Teflon Pan,
Garbage Disposal, and More
Ed Sobey
• Co-op available
How does a microwave heat food? Why is only one side of alu-
minum foil shiny? and Is it better to use cold or hot water in a
garbage disposal? are among the questions answered in this guide
that reveals the hidden science of the kitchen and its trappings.
Profiling more than 50 common appliances and utensils, this
handbook describes each item’s history, reveals interesting trivia
about the piece, and discusses the technology involved. In addi-
tion to featuring the original patent blueprints and photographs
of the “guts” of the culinary tools, this guide recounts quirky side
stories such as the role a waffle iron played in Nike’s inception
and the real reason why socialite Josephine Cochran invented the
dishwasher in 1886. Those whose stovetop skills are still in devel-
opment will appreciate the information on the invention and use
of the smoke detector and hand-held fire extinguishers.

How Microwave Ovens Work: RIGHTS: WORLD
CHICAGO REVIEW PRESS JUNE
The microwave bombards certain molecules inside food with
electromagnetic radiation to heat it. The radiation has a
wavelength of about 12 cm (5 in.) and can pass through
glass and plastic much like visible light can. Because of this,
the glass cover on a food dish doesn’t interfere with cooking
the food.
Water, fats, and sugar molecules, however, absorb the radia-
tion, which causes them to vibrate back and forth. They
vibrate because their molecules are not symmetric—for
example, the two hydrogen atoms in H2O are not 180
degrees apart but only 105 degrees apart. An asymmetric
structure gives each molecule a positive end and a negative
end, which will align with the electric field set up by the
microwaves. The electric field created by the microwaves
changes millions of times each second, so the molecules are
constantly realigning themselves. Their back-and-forth
motion generates the heat that cooks the food.
To generate the microwave radiation, the oven uses electrici-
ty to power a device called a magnetron. The magnetron is a
kind of vacuum tube. Before transistors and solid state com-
ponents, electronic circuits were dominated by vacuum
tubes. Television sets had dozens of them, and supermarkets
had tube testers so you could find the bad tube in your TV
and replace it. Were those the good old days?

A death with circumstances of mythical proportions
The Curious Death of Peter Artedi

A Mystery in the History of Science
Theodore W. Pietsch
Told through the voice of a pivotal figure in the Age of Enlightenment,
this entertaining work of historical fiction explores the world of old
Amsterdam and the mysterious death of a young scientist. When Peter
Artedi and Carl Linnaeus first meet in March 1729 as students at
Uppsala University, they take an immediate liking to each other and
soon form an intense intellectual bond. Sharing their revolutionary
ideas about order and hierarchy in nature, the pair develop elaborate
plans to classify plants and animals in ways never seen before—
Linnaeus focusing on plants and Artedi concentrating on fishes. In
September 1735, though, just as Artedi is set to publish his work, he
drowns under puzzling circumstances. Following up on a pledge to his
lost friend, Linnaeus retrieves Artedi’s manuscripts and has them pub-
lished, not before he publishes his own work and makes a name for
himself as a historical figure of epic proportions, while Artedi is quickly
forgotten. This story about a little-known event from a key point in his-
tory investigates the untold tale behind the friendship of Linnaeus and
Artedi and what may have actually happened between them.
Theodore W. Pietsch is the Dorothy T. Gilbert Professor in the school of
aquatic and fishery sciences and curator of fishes at the Burke Museum
of Natural History and Culture at the University of Washington–
Seattle. He is the author of Fishes, Crayfishes, and Crabs; Frogfishes of
the World; and Oceanic Anglerfishes. He lives in Seattle, Washington.

Excerpt from the Prologue:

It was called an accident from the start, no evidence of foul play detected. He was fully
clothed, in shirt and breeches, with simple dress-coat, hat and wig, it being yet mild for
late September. Walking stick floating nearby, his sword and sheath were still at his side,
one shoe on, the other missing, his pockets not turned out, a golden double guinea in the
one, nine pennies and four farthings in the other. The constable having been summoned,
the body and its belongings were retrieved and taken to the City Hospital. There, a
superficial examination confirmed the ample consumption of food and wine. A large
swelling on the left side of his head was attributed to the fall, against the heavy stone
embankment of the canal. When I beheld his lifeless body, stiff and stark, and saw his
livid lips, pale and filmy with the frost of death; when I thought of the unhappy fate and
loss of so old and excellent a friend and recalled to mind the innumerable sleepless
nights, the laborious days, the wearisome and perilous journeys, the countless midnight
hours of exhausting study that the man now lying dead before me had been fain to
undergo, and which had preceded his attainment of that standard of learning in which
he had no rival to fear—then I burst into tears.

Lethal Rage
A Mystery
Brent Pilkey
• Co-op available
• Advertising in Ellen Queen Mystery Magazine
Filled with drugs, prostitution, and crime, this mystery explores the
unglamorous life of a street cop in the rough-and-tumble 51
Division. Jack Warren, a young officer who enters the dangerous
downtown streets after working in a virtually crime-free area, is
immediately thrown into a brutal war against a crack-cocaine dealer
intent on taking over the city’s drug trade. Jack soon discovers that
no one is safe from the dealer’s quest for domination when the war
turns horrifically personal. Working with the division’s elite major-
crime unit, Jack learns there is an imperceptible yet enormous differ-
ence between the law and justice—and being a police officer and
surviving in the 51.
Brent Pilkey is a member of Toronto’s police force who previously
worked on their Crisis Intervention Team in 51 Division. He lives in
Toronto, Ontario.

Excerpt:
Together, slowly and carefully, they started pulling cardboard away from the feet, trying to get a clear look at the rest of the body.
Jack’s blood was pounding in his ears. His first homicide and he was first on the scene. The boxes and shadows shifted in the lights,
folding in upon themselves, never revealing what lay beneath. He was reaching into darkness, groping blindly.
Oh, God, I don’t want to put my hand in—His hand touched something warm.
“Paul, I think I’ve—”
And then the body sat up.
Jack screamed and leaped backward. His feet hit the dirt, then his butt and then his back slammed into the ground. His breath
whooshed out of him and he gasped for air, squirming on the ground like an overturned turtle in its Kevlar shell.
Dimly, he heard shouting through the roaring in his ears. He coughed and gratefully pulled in a lungful of air, then sat up and saw Paul
kicking the Dumpster for all he was worth.
“Get the fuck out of there! You little mother—” The rest was lost beneath the great clanging as his boot slammed into the metal bin
again and again.
Still fighting to breathe properly, Jack dragged himself to his feet as a very scared-looking fellow timidly poked his head out of the bin.
“What the fuck are you doing in there?” Paul yelled.
The man cringed. “I was sleeping, that’s all.”
“Why the fuck would you sleep in a Dumpster?” Paul shouted and Jack realized he wasn’t the only one who had been scared half to
death.
The man ducked into his cardboard fortress, fleeing from the angry giant’s wrath. “I was just sleeping.” It sounded like a desperate plea
for surrender.
“Sleeping. He was sleeping,” Paul muttered in disbelief. In control again, he spoke in a softer tone. “All right, buddy. C’mon out now.
No sleeping in Dumpsters. Someone’s liable to throw you away with the trash.”

When Beau Delaney, the Halifax hotshot whose exploits are the
subject of a new Hollywood film, is charged with the murder of
his wife Peggy, it’s lawyer and bluesman Monty Collins who takes
the case. But when Beau’s family dynamics and the appearance of
a mysterious child alert Monty that his client is keeping secrets,
others join in to help keep Beau from a life in prison. Monty’s pal,
Father Brennan Burke, has a hand in the investigation, as does
Monty’s estranged wife, Maura. Watching all this is Normie,
Monty and Maura’s daughter, who has the gift of second sight.
When she starts having visions that involve Beau, she can’t tell
whether they reflect something he’s done in the past—or some-
thing he might do in the future. It then becomes clear that Normie
and Monty must rely on each other to discover the truth about
Peggy’s death.

He relished the moments before the kill. MEDALLION PRESS APRIL
When his heart thumped against his chest. When sweat

slicked his skin and stung his eyes, his breathing coarse and
raspy. When the muscles of his shoulders tightened and his
hands tingled as if awakening. He closed his eyes and took several breaths, the night air warm and sweet. No hurry. He had time.
Time to enjoy the anticipation.
Squatting behind a thick, five-foot row of hydrangeas, Brian Kurtz leaned against the cool brick wall. Its roughness tugged at his T-
shirt. Inside, his victim slept. The deep, peaceful sleep of someone who thought the future held many such restful nights. Not so, Mr.
Michael Savage.
Savage. He liked that name. It possessed power and passion and violence and rage. It conjured images of the old man at the Russel
Erskine. Savage. They had learned the meaning of the word. Tonight the man beyond the wall would, too.
“Very soon, Mr. Savage,” he murmured.
He often talked aloud to himself, though at these times his voice sounded foreign. Tinny, flat, muffled. His pulse hammered in his
ears, and the familiar rage-fueled knot expanded in his stomach. The anger wanted out. Not yet.
God, he loved this feeling.
He shifted his weight. The marble-sized gravel beneath the shrubs crunched softly. His shoulder shook loose a few petals from one of
the ball-shaped flowers. They floated to the ground, joining others that had already taken the fall.
His plan looped through his mind for the hundredth time. Every step a crisp picture. Jump the fence into the backyard. Through the
side garage door, the kitchen, and down the hall to where Savage sprawled on his bed, easy prey. The gun, the soft pop, the recoil. Then,
Savage was his. The images kicked his pulse up a notch. Sweat collected on his face, and he swiped it away with the front of his shirt.
It was time.

A brilliant assemblage of stories by a rising

fantasy star
The Third Bear

Jeff VanderMeer
“In the hands of a brilliant writer like Jeff VanderMeer, writing fantasy can
be a means of serious artistic expression. . . . It is also playful, poignant,
and utterly, wildly imaginative.” —Peter Straub, author,
The Talisman
“Jeff VanderMeer is an extraordinary writer . . . passionate, beautiful, com-
plex, terrifying.” —Tamar Yellin, author, The Genizah
at the House of Shepher

The award-winning short fictions in this collection highlight the voice of an
inventive contemporary fantasist who has been compared by critics to
Borges, Nabokov, and Kafka. In addition to highlights such as “The Sit-
uation,” in which a beleaguered office worker creates a child-swallowing
manta ray to be used for educational purposes and “Errata,” which follows
an oddly familiar writer who has marshaled a penguin, a shaman, and two
pearl-handled pistols with which to plot the end of the world, this volume
contains two never-before-published stories. Chimerical and hypnotic, this
compilation leads readers through the postmodern into what is emerging
into a new literature of the imagination.
Jeff VanderMeer is a columnist, a publisher, the author of several books,
including Booklife, City of Saints & Madmen, Finch, Shriek: An After-
word, and Veniss Underground. He is the editor of Fast Ships, Black Sails;

A juried selection of stories from a well-loved

fantasy master
The Very Best of Charles de Lint

Charles de Lint
“Charles de Lint is the modern master of urban fantasy. Folktale, myth,
fairy tale, dreams, urban legend—all of it adds up to pure magic in de
Lint’s vivid, original world. No one does it better.”
—Alice Hoffman, author, Here in the Future
“A master storyteller, he blends Celtic, Native American, and other cul-
tures into a seamless mythology that resonates with magic and truth.”
—Library Journal
• Co-op available
• Advertising in Fantasy & Science Fiction and Locus magazine
At turns whimsical, dark, and mystical, this extraordinary collection of
retold fairy tales and new, modern myths redefine the boundaries of
magic. Compiling favored stories suggested by the author and his fans,
this delightful treasury contains the most esteemed and beloved selec-
tions that de Lint has to offer. Innovative characters in unexpected
places are the key to each plot: playful Crow Girls who sneak into the
homes of their sleeping neighbors; a graffiti artist who risks everything
to expose a long-standing conspiracy; a half-human girl who must
choose between her village and her strange birthright; and an unrepen-
tant trickster who throws one last party to reveal a folkloric tradition.
Showcasing some of the finest offerings within the realms of urban fan-
tasy and magical realism, this essential compendium of timeless tales
will charm and inspire.

A controversial analysis of events leading up to the

attacks on the World Trade Center
Disconnecting the Dots

How 9/11 Was Allowed to Happen
Kevin Fenton
Questioning actions taken by American intelligence agencies prior to
9/11, this investigation charges that the CIA and NSA repeatedly
and deliberately withheld information from the FBI, thereby allow-
ing hijackers to attack the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
Pinpointing a CIA deputy unit chief, Tom Wilshire, and his manager,
Richard Blee, as being primarily responsible for many of the intelli-
gence failures, this account analyzes the circumstances in which crit-
ical intelligence information was kept from FBI investigators in the
wider context of the CIA’s operations against al-Qaeda, concluding
that the information was intentionally omitted in order to allow an
al-Qaeda attack to go forward against the United States. The book
also looks at the findings of the four main 9/11 investigations,
claiming they omitted key facts and were blind to the purposefulness
of the wrongdoing they investigated. Additionally, it asserts that Blee
was involved in key post-9/11 events and further intelligence fail-
ures, including the failure to capture Osama bin Laden at Tora Bora
and the CIA’s rendition and torture program.

rently works as a translator.

TRINE DAY AUGUST
Excerpt from Chapter 5, “This is not a matter for the FBI”:

In December 1999, during a major alert due to a perceived set of forthcoming al-Qaeda attacks to mark the Millennium, the
NSA intercepted a call involving the Yemen hub. It was between bin Attash and Almihdhar, and indicated that a number of
operatives, referred to by the NSA as “Khalid,” “Nawaf,” and “Salem,” would be travelling to Malaysia for a summit with
other al-Qaeda operatives. The Khalid was Almihdhar, although the NSA reportedly did not know his full name at this point.
Nawaf and Salem were the Alhazmi brothers.
The NSA already associated Nawaf Alhazmi with the Yemen hub’s phone thanks to the intercepts earlier in the year and, if
they had searched their database, they would have found his name. They also figured that Salem was Nawaf’s brother, so, if
they had found Nawaf’s last name, they would have found Salem’s too. The NSA did not search its database, but it did send a
report of the intercept to both the CIA and the FBI.
The CIA officer responsible for the Yemen hub, referred to only as “Michelle” in the Justice Department inspector general’s
report, presumably read this cable when it came in. It is unclear who else read the report at this time, although Wilshire,
deputy chief of Alec Station, did access cables about the surveillance on January 5, and it is reasonable to assume he knew
about the NSA report when it came in. He later told the Congressional Inquiry, “this intelligence [the NSA surveillance]
provided a kind of a tuning fork that buzzed when two individuals [Alhazmi and Almihdhar] reportedly planning a trip to
Kuala Lumpur were linked indirectly to a support element [the Yemen hub] that we suspected had played a role with the
Africa bombers.”
Michelle, who later helped Wilshire conceal information from the FBI, is said to be the one who identified these links,
although they would have been obvious at the time. In any case, the CIA realized that the summit was so important that
information about it was briefed to CIA and FBI leaders, National Security Adviser Sandy Berger and other top officials at
the start of 2000.

Mani Bhaumik, PhD
“An inspirational read. Dr. Bhaumik tackles topics with impres-
sive scope, yet delves into them with spirit rarely seen. Marrying
scientifically accurate text with accessible language is no easy
task, but The Cosmic Detective is proof that it can be done.”
—Dr. Catherine Cesarsky, president,

• $25,000 marketing budget, co-op available
• Advertising in Spirituality and Health
Presenting scientific information concerning the latest research
about the universe, this story—framed as a detective investiga-
tion—captivates the curiosity of readers as it poses thought-pro-
voking questions, invites the reader’s participation, and even
offers a lab notebook for readers to record their findings.
Exploring essential questions concerning human identity and ori-
gin, a series of excursions and experiments helps assemble the
story that the stars tell about the creation and ongoing expan-
sion of the universe. It discusses cosmology, supernova, black
holes, and stardust, uncovering scientifically accepted truths that
paint a picture focusing on reimagining life and purpose of
being. Going step-by-step through the solar system and detailing
answers already known by science, questions are offered for fur-
ther research, thought, and reflection.

A sashay through recent dance innovation
Introduction to Modern
Dance Techniques
Joshua Legg
Bringing together all of the major modern dance techniques from
the last 80 years, this engaging account is the first of its kind.
The informative discussion starts by mapping the historical
development of modern dance: in the late 19th century, a new
dance emerged—not yet known as modern dance—that rejected
social strictures and ballet as well. With insight into the personal-
ities and purposes of modern dance’s vanguard—including
Martha Graham, Lester Horton, José Limón, and Merce
Cunningham—this compilation provides a comparative
approach that will enable students to discern which technique
best suits them and dispel the idea that there is a single, universal
modern dance technique. There are also ideas for experimenta-
tion so that students can begin developing an aesthetic sense for
not only what is pleasing to their artistic eye, but also for what
technical ideas are exciting while their own body is in motion.
Sample syllabi are included for teachers to incorporate the text
into courses.
Joshua Legg is a choreographer, writer, poet, photographer, edu-
cator, and designer. He holds an MFA in dance, choreography,
and performance and has taught for the dance and theater pro-
grams at Harvard University, Suffolk University, and Shenan-

Excerpt from Chapter 3: Katherine Dunham and Lester Horton:

It is fitting on a number of levels that Katherine Dunham and Lester Horton should be paired together. While Dunham enjoyed
success in Hollywood and on Broadway, she and Horton spent much of their careers as outsiders to the modern dance world.
On the surface, there is the locus of their work outside of New York City. The vast majority of Horton’s work was made in Los
Angeles away from the eyes of New York audiences and, perhaps more importantly, away from the eyes of the major dance crit-
ics of the time. Clive Barnes (regular dance critic for the New York Times) wrote, “The neglect of Horton is easily understood.
For a modern dancer he committed the unforgivable crime of working on the wrong coast, choosing Los Angeles as his center
rather than New York. Dunham, on the other hand, did carve a place for herself in New York—even locating her school for a
time in Isadora Duncan’s old studio—and achieved critical acclaim for her work there. But Dunham, unlike her contemporaries
Graham and Limón, had artistic, intellectual and social interests that could not be met by concentrating her work exclusively in
that city. Even after she stopped performing and relocated to East St. Louis, Illinois, she continued making significant contribu-
tions to society and culture—particularly through her work as an activist and educator.
Dance itself was not the only important concern that Dunham and Horton shared. The choreography that these mavericks cre-
ated obliterated the dance world’s racial barriers in the 1930s and 1940s. It is difficult for Americans coming of age today to
comprehend the legalized segregation under which the early modern dance pioneers began forging an artform or the innumer-
able ways that such a system—and the racism at its core—impeded artistic development.
Dunham and Horton, however, provided homes—training grounds—for black dancers who would emerge as some of the most
significant dance artists of the last century.

Anarchism and Education

A Philosophical Perspective
Second edition
Judith Suisa
“This is an excellent book that deals with important issues
through the lens of anarchist theories and practices of education
. . . [it] tackles a number of issues that are relevant to anybody
who is trying to come to terms with the philosophy of educa-
tion.” —Higher Education Review
• New in paper
Arguing that the central role of educational practice in anarchist
theory and activism has been overlooked by many theorists, this
examination of contemporary educational philosophy counters
the assertion that anarchism reflects a naïve or overly optimistic
view of human nature. By articulating the philosophical under-
pinnings of anarchist thought on issues of human nature, free-
dom, authority, and social change, the case is made that the
anarchist tradition can be a rich source of insights into perennial
philosophical questions about education. This theoretical explo-
ration is then bolstered with a historical account of anarchist
education, focusing on key defining features of anarchist schools,
their ideological underpinnings, and their pedagogical approach-
es. Finally, a clear explanation of how anarchist education is dis-
tinct from libertarian, progressive, Marxist, and liberal models
defines the role of anarchist education in furthering and sustain-
ing a just and equal society.
Judith Suissa is a senior lecturer in philosophy of education at
the Institute of Education, University of London. Her research

gressive” education. Indeed, one issue which I address in
PM PRESS AUGUST
this book is the failure of many theorists to distinguish
between libertarian education (or “free schools”) and anar-
chist education. I hope to establish that the principles
underlying the anarchist position make the associated edu-
cational practices and perspective significantly distinct from other approaches in radical education.
Similarly, both academic texts and public perceptions often involve simplifications, distortions or misunderstandings of anar-
chism. The typical response of contemporary scholars to the anarchist idea—that it is “utopian”, “impractical” or “over-opti-
mistic regarding human nature” (see, for example, Scruton 1982; Wolff 1996)—needs to be scrutinized if one is to give anarchism
serious consideration. To what extent are these charges justified? And what are the philosophical and political assumptions
behind them? Indeed such charges themselves have, for me, raised fascinating questions about the nature and role of the philoso-
phy of education. If philosophy is to reach beyond the conceptual reality of our present existence, how far can it go before it
becomes “utopian”, and what does this mean? And if we do want to promote an alternative vision of human life, to what extent
are we accountable for the practicality of this vision? So while the focus of this work is an exploration of the philosophical issues
involved in anarchist ideas of education, these broader questions form the backdrop to the discussion.

Intimate snapshots of life in the Big Apple
New York Love Affair

Photographs by Barbara E. Cohen
Foreword by Michael Cunningham
“In Barbara Cohen’s gloriously altered Polaroids, New York City vibrates as if it’s been tuned to a higher frequency. Because these are
not exactly photographs and not exactly paintings but a glowing hybrid of the two, Cohen makes the familiar shimmer with unexpect-
ed intensity, and beloved landmarks light up all over again.” —Mark Doty, author, Heaven’s Coast
In this photographic ode to a world-class city, the everyday yet oft-remembered sights of the Big Apple appear through the lens of
manipulated, painted Polaroids. From the Apollo Theater, Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and St. Patrick’s Cathedral to
the Hotel Chelsea, Times Square, Zabar’s Deli, corner hot dog stands, and the seemingly endless stream of taxi cabs, these intimate
vignettes painted with oils to reflect the glow of the city lights graphically capture the longtime resident’s delight in the city she and so
many others call home. A foreword by the Pulitzer Prize–winning author and fellow New Yorker Michael Cunningham is also included.
Barbara E. Cohen is a contemporary abstract painter, a sculptor, and a printmaker. She is the coauthor of Dogs and Their Women and
Woman’s Best Friend, and the author/photographer of Dog in the Dunes and Dog in the Dunes Revisited. Michael Cunningham is the
author of the Pulitzer Prize– and PEN/Faulkner Award–winning novel The Hours. He teaches at the Fine Arts Work Center in
Provincetown, Massachusetts, and in the creative writing MFA program at Brooklyn College. They both live in New York City.
