    A tender and provocative collection of poems interrogating the troubles and wonders of childhood and parentage against the backdrop of global violence.From the accomplished and tenacious poet Wayne Miller comes a collection examining how an individual’s story both hues to and defies larger socio-political narratives and the sweep of history. A cubist making World War I camouflage, a forlorn panel on the ethics of violence in literature, an obsessive litany of “late capitalism” routines, a military drone pilot driving home—here, the awkward, the sweet, and the disturbing often merge. And underlaying it all is Miller’s own domestic life and two children, who highlight the hopeful and ingenious aspects of childhood, which endures “not // as I had thought / the thicket of light back at the entrance // but the wind still blowing / invisibly toward me / through it.” Wayne Miller’s sixth collection of poems is his most intimate, juxtaposing his fraught youth with his children's cautiously safer one, against insurrection and pandemic, vacation and vocation, art and war. This piercing book spares nothing and no one in searching out a measure of personal truth and benevolence in today’s turbulent, brutalizing world, confronted by a singularly candid and lyrical voice.

    Negotiated Peace is a behavior modification system designed to help people who are struggling with issues around body weight establish permanent, healthy weight management behaviors. Whether you are currently overweight or not, doesn't matter. If you are caught up in a seemingly eternal war over weight, this book is for you. After reading this book and performing the assignments and exercises outlined, you will become victorious in the war over weight and be able to settle the war permanently with a negotiated peace. In contrast to any other weight-loss book or health promotional, Negotiated Peace teaches you how to change your behaviors permanently. In other words, other programs may teach you how to behave differently, but they do not teach you how to change your behavior. Everyone can be victorious in the war over weight, but it won't happen unless you go beyond the realm of learning how to behave and into the realm of learning how to change behavior. Negotiated Peace will bring you there.

Helping these communities respect these bodies of water and keep them free of pollution and litter are the major goals the students are showing in their science projects. Winning their school science fair earns them a week at the Camp Clean Water where biologists and water experts will enrich their knowledge of the affects of pollution on water.

    "Gutenberg's invention of movable type in the fifteenth century introduced an era of mass communication that permanently altered the structure of society. While publishing has been buffeted by persistent upheaval and transformation ever since, the current combination of technological developments, market pressures, and changing reading habits has led to an unprecedented paradigm shift in the world of books. Bringing together a wide range of perspectives - industry veterans and provocateurs, writers, editors, and digital mavericks - this invaluable collection reflects on the current situation of literary publishing, and provides a road map for the shifting geography of its future: How do editors and publishers adapt to this rapidly changing world? How are vibrant public communities in the Digital Age created and engaged? How can an industry traditionally dominated by white men become more diverse and inclusive? Mindful of the stakes of the ongoing transformation, Literary Publishing in the 21st Century goes beyond the usual discussion of 'print vs. digital' to uncover the complex, contradictory, and increasingly vibrant personalities that will define the future of the book"--

    The narrators in this mesmerizing collection often desire to hold time still in moments of love, yes, but also when feeling fully located in a particular place or experience. Yet they also acknowledge that to hold time still would mean the death of love, the death of experience. Thus, the grounding and locating sensory images that surround us and the eye that apprehends them become greatly important. At the heart of the book is What Night Says to the Empty Boat, a sequence of lyric poems in which the three main characters Justine, Clarence, and Andy drift to and from, together and apart, viewed through the dispassionate lens of the unspoken fourth main character. An artistic and philosophical endeavor to place oneself in the world, this stunning collection is a wholehearted embrace of being, where technique and subject come together in a remarkable combination of personal lyric and formal innovation.
