Imprint: Oxford University Press, 1984 Like a well-crafted revival of a beloved play, this new edition of a favori te reference book retains the flavor of the original production while signi ficantly updating its content. The cast here is large and includes actors, choreographers, composers, dancers, designers, directors, lyricists, plays, playwrights, producers, theaters, and theater companies. The text covers the American stage from its inception to the present, and the alphabetically arranged entries range in length from a few lines to a quarter of a double-columned page. Among the articles new to this edition are AIDS and the American theatre, Asian-American theatre and drama, Feminist theatre, 42nd Street redevelopment, Performance art, and Road tours. The authors note that to retain all the historical information of previous editions, individual articles have been condensed rather than eliminated. There is more variety here than on a vaudeville bill: hair and hairspray; urinetown and Uncle Tom's Cabin; and Tony 'n Tina's Wedding and The Tale of the Allergist's Wife are among the plays represented. Articles on individual theater artists often mention a biography or autobiography, a welcome enhancement to a ready-reference source such as this. To present as complete a picture of American theater as possible, entries on theaters beyond the Great White Way, such as the Arena Stage, the Goodman Theatre, La Jolla Playhouse, American Conservatory Theatre, and the Steppenwolf Theatre Company, are included. Capsule histories of every Broadway theater as well as several Off-Broadway houses are another new and notable feature. The volume is recommended for all public, Good/Good Stock number: RWARE0000006349. ISBN: 9780195034431

Borneman tackles th e essential question of military leadership: What makes some men, but not o thers, able to motivate a fighting force into battle?"â??Tony Perry, Los An geles Times "The first book to deal with the four [admirals] together, focusing on thei r intertwined lives, friendships, and rivalries....A very well-crafted book ."â??John Lehman, Washington Post "Engagingly written and deeply researched... Mr. Borneman makes it easy to understand the complex series of maneuvers and counter-maneuvers at Leyte G ulf...which is not always the case with accounts of the battle."â??Andrew R oberts, Wall Street Journal "A riveting introduction to the only four men in American history to have b een promoted to the five-star rank of Admiral of the Fleet in recognition o f their extraordinary feats"â??The History Channel "Borneman demonstrates comprehensive command of published and unpublished s ources, fingertip understanding of the period, and a polished writing style in this unique collective biography of the four men who 'with a combinatio n of nimble counsel, exasperating ego, studied patience, and street-fighter tactics' shaped the modern U.S. Navy to win WWII at sea."â??Publishers Wee kly "Borneman deftly manipulates multiple narrative strands and a wealth of det ail. He vividly fleshes out the numerous vain, ambitious men vying for powe r at the top and examines their important decisions and lasting ramificatio ns.

Imprint: Sage Hill Press, 2010 A crisp clean softcover, no markings throughout: Walt Whitman of Cosmic Folklore will change the way we think not just about Whitman, but about our relationship to poetry. In the space of these inspired dialogues, lyric essays, and poems, Botsford takes us back and forth across oceans of the imagination, of time and space, to arrive finally back where we started: contemplating a body of literature, only now reinvigorated with deep spiritual energy and laden with the fullness of the enlightened soul. Reading this is unlike no other reading you will do. It transcends the borders of genre, time, imagination, and crosses over into the purely experiential. Alan Botsford, and Walt Whitman himself, dare you to stand on the precipice of true art, sway back and forth in awe, and to fall in., Near Fine Stock number: RWARE0000023451. ISBN: 9780977344734

We don't think too much about sex; we're merely thinking about it in the wr ong way. So asserts Alain de Botton in How to Think More About Sex, a rigorous and supremely honest book designed to help us navigate the intimate and exciting---yet often confusing and difficult---experience that is sex. Few of us tend to feel we're entirely normal when it comes to sex, and what we're supposed to be feeling rarely matches up with the reality. This book argues that twenty-first-century sex is ultimately fated to be a balancing act between love and desire, and adventure and commitment. Covering topics that include lust, fetishism, adultery, and pornography, Alain de Botton frankly articulates the dilemmas of modern sexuality, offering insights and consolation to help us think more deeply and wisely about the sex we are, or aren't, having., Very Good Stock number: RWARE0000039252.

Imprint: Berghahn Books, 2012 In July 1995, the Bosnian Serb Army commanded by General Ratko Mladic attac ked the enclave of Srebrenica, a UN "safe area" since 1993, and massacred a bout 8,000 Bosniac men. While the responsibility for the massacre itself la ys clearly with the Serb political and military leadership, the question of the responsibility of various international organizations and national aut horities for the fall of the enclave is still passionately discussed, and h as given rise to various rumors and conspiracy theories. Follow-up investig ations by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia and by several commissions have dissipated most of these rumors and contribute d to a better knowledge of the Srebrenica events and the part played by the main local and international actors. This volume represents the first syst ematic, comparative analysis of those investigations. It brings together an alyses from both the external standpoint of academics and the inside perspe ctive of various professionals who participated directly in the inquiries, including police officers, members of parliament, high-ranking civil servan ts, and other experts. Evaluating how institutions establish facts and ascr ibe responsibilities, this volume presents a historiographical and epistemo logical reflection on the very possibility of writing a history of the pres ent time., Very Good Stock number: RWARE0000036246.

Imprint: Bloomsbury Publishing Plc, 2004 Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly After twenty- fi ve years of 'sex, drugs, bad behaviour and haute cuisine', chef and novelis t Anthony Bourdain has decided to tell all. From his first oyster in the Gi ronde to his lowly position as a dishwasher in a honky tonk fish restaurant in Provincetown; from the kitchen of the Rainbow Room atop the Rockefeller Center to drug dealers in the East Village, from Tokyo to Paris and back t o New York again, Bourdain's tales of the kitchen are as passionate as they are unpredictable, as shocking as they are funny. A Cook's Tour: In Search of the Perfect Meal Bourdain sets off to eat his way around the world. But this was never going to be a conventional culinary tour. He heads to Saigo n where he eats the still-beating heart of a live cobra, and travels into K hmer Rouge territory to find the rumoured Wild West of Cambodia. He also di nes with gangsters in Russia, finds a medieval pig slaughter and feast in P ortugal, and returns to the fishing village where he first ate oysters as a child. Written with his inimitable machismo and humour, this is an adventu re story sure to give you indigestion., Very Good Stock number: RWARE0000039909. ISBN: 9780747574989

Imprint: Ecco, 2010 A crisp clean hardcover, no markings throughout, not an ex-lib: No one really expected Bourdain to top his wildly popular Kitchen Confidential, even Bourdain himself: several critics wrote that he seems alternately awed and appalled by his own celebrity. Those parts of Medium Raw--more of a collection of essays than a streamlined narrative--that seemed to grow out of that celebrity, such as Bourdain's feuds with food critics and celebrity chefs, impressed reviewers the least. But they still found much to savor, particularly Bourdain's biting personality, his own humorous self-deprecation, his ability to bring out the unknown elements of the restaurant industry, particularly the kitchen and service staff who might otherwise be ignored, and, not least of all, the well-written (if often vulgar) and compelling stories. In the end, though Medium Raw will best be appreciated by foodies, it is "generally an entertaining read, compelling more for [Bourdain's] passion than his mean streak" (Kansas City Star)., Very Good/Very Good Stock number: RWARE0000020446.

Imprint: Signet, 2002 Already a classic of war reporting and now reissued as a Grove Press paperb ack, Black Hawk Down is Mark Bowden's brilliant account of the longest sust ained firefight involving American troops since the Vietnam War. On October 3, 1993, about a hundred elite U.S. soldiers were dropped by helicopter in to the teeming market in the heart of Mogadishu, Somalia. Their mission was to abduct two top lieutenants of a Somali warlord and return to base. It w as supposed to take an hour. Instead, they found themselves pinned down thr ough a long and terrible night fighting against thousands of heavily armed Somalis. The following morning, eighteen Americans were dead and more than seventy had been badly wounded. Drawing on interviews from both sides, army records, audiotapes, and videos (some of the material is still classified), Bowden's minute-by-minute narrative is one of the most exciting accounts of modern combat ever written-a riveting story that captures the heroism, courage, and brutality of battle., Very Good Stock number: RWARE0000038134.

Imprint: McClelland & Stewart, 1992 This U.S. debut by a Canadian writer is less a mystery than an elegant and painstaking examination of family ties and friendships, both battered beyon d recognition by time and willful egos. Sally Love has achieved fame and no toriety in the art world with her works of ``erotobiography.'' But she has suffered losses along the way: she's in the process of selling her gallery; has lost touch with her childhood friend, Joanne Kilbourn; and is estrange d from her husband, her mother and her daughter. A third of the novel is a tense, masterfully written character study; then the killings begin: the di sturbed gallery manager is ritually murdered, and one of the many irate pro testers outside the gallery where Sally's newest piece is on display is gun ned down. The author subverts the usual notions of plot, shifting narrative gears frequently to dwell on a telling detail or an evocative aside. The e ffect, while a mite unsettling, is bold and powerful. Subsequent deaths res ult in too few suspects but by then the quixotic, volatile relationships co nnecting Sally to Joanne and to the rest of the world have firmly seized th e reader's imagination ., Very Good Stock number: RWARE0000001500.

In his review of board roles and responsibilities, CEO evaluations, transitions, compensation, and leadership, among other topics, he minces no words in forcefully expressing his opinions. Corporate America must pay attention to succession planning and how the CEO is paid. Board members need to be chosen not only for their background but for their courage and will to act. The lead director is an important and emerging role model to be emulated. With his words and advice exampled by such well-known corporate leaders as Hanna Gray, Thomas Neff, Larry Bossidy, and Lou Gerstner, Bowen's facts and straightforward narrative make a compelling and critical read for wannabe directors and for every student of corporate affairs., Fine/ Fine Stock number: RWARE0000016206.

Kevin reflects, "The past is always just a bit more expensive than we thought possible." And so it is for Kevin, a successful middle-aged antiques dealer whose past is exacting a price: he journeys down dark memories of peddling his young body to strangers, destroying himself with booze and speed, striving to become predator rather than prey on the streets of New York in the 1960s. The problem, as he sees it, is that his Shadow--more than an alternate self but less than an independent doppelgänger--is the bad guy, the one who would bring back the old habits. But his Shadow is not purely evil, and Kevin is not purely good. The two of them have much to learn if they ever hope to be reconciled., Near Fine Stock number: RWARE0000013218. ISBN: 9780312872281

Imprint: Penguin On the terrace of an eloborate hilltop apartment overlooking a Central Amer ican capital, four people sit making polite conversation. The American coup le -- an elderly physician and his young wife -- are tourists. Their host, whom they have just met, is a young man of striking good looks and charm. T he girl, who is his mistress, is very young and very beautiful. Sitting the re, with drinks in their hands, watching the sunset, the Slades seem to be experiencing the sort of fortunate chance encounter that travelers cherish. But amidst the civilities and small talk, one remark proves prophetic. The host says to the American woman: "It's not exactly what you think." Master fully -- with the poetic control that has always characterized his work -- Paul Bowles leads the reader beneath the surface of hospitality and luxury into a tortuous maze of human relationships and shifting moods, until what seems at first a merely casual encounter is seen to be one rooted in viciou sness and horror., Very Good Stock number: RWARE0000012762.

Imprint: G.P. Putnam's Sons, 2016 The first novel in the thrilling series featuring Wyoming game warden Joe P ickett from #1 New York Times bestselling author C. J. Box. Joe Pickett is the new game warden in Twelve Sleep, Wyoming, a town where n early everyone hunts and the game warden--especially one like Joe who won't take bribes or look the other way--is far from popular. When he finds a lo cal hunting outfitter dead, splayed out on the woodpile behind his state-ow ned home, he takes it personally. There had to be a reason that the outfitt er, with whom he's had run-ins before, chose his backyard, his woodpile to die in. Even after the "outfitter murders," as they have been dubbed by the local press after the discovery of the two more bodies, are solved, Joe co ntinues to investigate, uneasy with the easy explanation offered by the loc al police. As Joe digs deeper into the murders, he soon discovers that the outfitter brought more than death to his backdoor: he brought Joe an endangered species, thought to be extinct, which is now living in his woodpile. But if word of the existence of this endangered species gets out, it will destroy any chance of InterWest, a multi- national natural gas company, building an oil pipeline that would bring the company billions of dollars across Wyoming, through the mountains and forests of Twelve Sleep. The closer Joe comes to the truth behind the outfitter murders, the endangered species and InterWest, the closer he comes to losing everything he holds dear., Very Good Stock number: RWARE0000040089.

Joe Pickett is attempting to enjoy-all right, survive-his mother-in-law's w edding to a local big-shot rancher when he receives some disturbing news: W ill Jensen,a fellow Wyoming game warden and a good friend, has killed himse lf. And Joe's been picked to temporarily run Jensen's Teton district. Jackson, Wyoming, is a far cry from Joe's hometown of Saddlestring-it's the epicenter for many environmental extremists and an elite playground for th e rich and powerful-and Joe quickly finds himself in over his head. Yet des pite the pressures of his new job, he can't get his friend's suicide out of his mind. By all accounts, Will had changed in the last few months, becomi ng violent and unpredictable. The closer Joe comes to the truth about Will's death, the more his own life spirals out of control-and he realizes that if he's not careful, he may end up as Jackson's next victim.

Imprint: HarperCollins, 1995 "Utterly engaging....A novel of ideas, of big themes....William Boyd is a c hampion storyteller." - New York Times Book Review William Boyd's classic Brazzaville Beach has been called as a "bold seamless blend of philosophy and suspense...

Imprint: Penguin Group (USA) Incorpor, 1989 In this extraordinary novel, William Boyd presents the autobiography of Joh n James Todd, whose uncanny and exhilarating life as one of the most unappr eciated geniuses of the twentieth century is equal parts Laurence Stern, Ch arles Dickens, Robertson Davies, and Saul Bellow, and a hundred percent Wil liam Boyd. From his birth in 1899, Todd was doomed. Emerging from his angst-filled childhood, he rushes into the throes of the twentieth century on the Western Front during the Great War, and quickly changes his role on the battlefield from cannon fodder to cameraman. When he becomes a prisoner of war, he discovers Rousseau's Confessions, and dedicates his life to bringing the memoir to the silver screen. Plagued by bad luck and blind ambition, Todd becomes a celebrated London upstart, a Weimar luminary, and finally a disgruntled director of cowboy movies and the eleventh member of the Hollywood Ten. Ambitious and entertaining, Boyd has invented a most irresistible hero., Very Good Stock number: RWARE0000039871. ISBN: 9780140106992
