A telephone call originating in Idaho triggers alarms as far away as New York and Paris. When the Secretary of the Interior’s helicopter is shot out of the sky, his plans to develop an exclusive residential community on lands owned by his wife’s family are put on hold. The President’s National Security Advisor suspects the Secretary’s murder may signal the beginning of a series of terrorist attacks on US soft targets, possibly sponsored by the Saudi Royal family to stop the Secretary’s push to tap additional US oil and gas reserves. CIA operative Alec Caldwell, a master at mountain man skills, is tasked with finding the crash site in the remote Idaho Mountains. Conflicting evidence leads Caldwell to suspect there is more to the Secretary’s death than meets the eye. When deadly radioactive waste is found buried in the Secretary’s development, Alec tracks the culprit to Europe, but a contract assassin silences his target before he can take him into custody. Caldwell ultimately identifies the assassin, but does not turn her over to the FBI. He, and the CIA have other plans for her considerable talents. Caught up in a web of mistakes in handling the case, a disgruntled FBI agent blames Alec for his problems and targets him for assassination. Can Beth get Alec the medical attention he needs to save his life or do the Alec Caldwell sagas end here?

For twenty-six years James Drake Foster hasbeen haunted by the memory of his fostersister's tragic suicide the evening of her high school graduation. Only he knows why she took her own life. Now a successful private investigator and predator of vulnerable, affluent women ten years his senior, he embarks on a mission that will not only avenge her death but will also protect her from harm in the event heaven is accepting undesirables. He is confident the mission will also drive his own demons of the past from his mind. The success of his agenda depends on his ability to function as two distinctly different individuals: the competent and idealistic private eye and a psychopathic serial killer. Four months and six bodies later--mission accomplished. Not quite. Suddenly his agenda is derailed.

The Control Agenda is a sweeping account of the history of the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT), their rise in the Nixon and Ford administrations, their downfall under President Carter, and their powerful legacies in the Reagan years and beyond. Matthew Ambrose pays close attention to the interplay of diplomacy, domestic politics, and technology, and finds that the SALT process was a key point of reference for arguments regarding all forms of Cold War decision making. Ambrose argues elite U.S. decision makers used SALT to better manage their restive domestic populations and to exert greater control over the shape, structure, and direction of their nuclear arsenals. Ambrose also asserts that prolonged engagement with arms control issues introduced dynamic effects into nuclear policy. Arms control considerations came to influence most areas of defense decision making, while the measure of stability SALT provided allowed the examination of new and potentially dangerous nuclear doctrines. The Control Agenda makes clear that verification and compliance concerns by the United States prompted continuous reassessments of Soviet capabilities and intentions; assessments that later undergirded key U.S. policy changes toward the Soviet Union. Through SALT’s many twists and turns, accusations and countercharges, secret backchannels and propaganda campaigns the specter of nuclear conflict loomed large.

When Agendas and Instability in American Politics appeared fifteen years ago, offering a profoundly original account of how policy issues rise and fall on the national agenda, the Journal of Politics predicted that it would “become a landmark study of public policy making and American politics.” That prediction proved true and, in this long-awaited second edition, Bryan Jones and Frank Baumgartner refine their influential argument and expand it to illuminate the workings of democracies beyond the United States. The authors retain all the substance of their contention that short-term, single-issue analyses cast public policy too narrowly as the result of cozy and dependable arrangements among politicians, interest groups, and the media. Jones and Baumgartner provide a different interpretation by taking the long view of several issues—including nuclear energy, urban affairs, smoking, and auto safety—to demonstrate that bursts of rapid, unpredictable policy change punctuate the patterns of stability more frequently associated with government. Featuring a new introduction and two additional chapters, this updated edition ensures that their findings will remain a touchstone of policy studies for many years to come.

A murder. A secret. A promise. Gretchen Lauterbach's grandmother asks her to fulfill a strange request that involves her older sister Rachel--who's been exiled from the family for the past five years--as well as giving her a map. In this case, instead of an X marking the spot of buried treasure, Gretchen finds buried secrets. Until now Gretchen hasn't been able to get herself emotionally ready to read her sister's letter. When she does, she gets the shock of her life. On a path that only seems to get stranger by the minute, she finds herself reuniting with family she never realized she had. She also discovers a lover's remains have been hidden in the black hills of France's Morvan forest. In order to right an old wrong--and save her own life--Gretchen must distinguish ally from foe, truth from lie. Nothing is as it seems beneath the Morvan moon.

Real war is a cruel theater of death, yet it is also an exciting narrative exploited for national, political and commercial purposes and turned into numerous films, television shows, computer games, news stories and reenactment plays. These essays examine the relationship between war, visual media and entertainment from a number of academic perspectives. Key topics include how war is used as an imaginary site to stage dramas; how boundaries between war, media, and entertainment dissolve as new media alters the formal qualities of representation; how entertainment is used to engage audiences; and what effect products of war and entertainment have on consumers of popular culture.

Popular interest in body image issues has grown dramatically in recent years, due to an emphasis on individual responsibility and self-determination in contemporary society as well as the seemingly limitless capacities of modern medicine; however body image as a separate field of academic inquiry is still relatively young. The contributors of Body Image and Identity in Contemporary Societies explore the complex social, political and aesthetic interconnections between body image and identity. It is an in-depth study that allows for new perspectives in the analysis of contemporary visual art and literature but also reflects on how these social constructs inform clinical treatment. Sukhanova and Thomashoff bring together contributions from psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, psychiatrists and scholars in the fields of the social sciences and the humanities to explore representations of the body in literature and the arts across different times and cultures. The chapters analyse the social construction of the 'ideal' body in terms of beauty, gender, sexuality, race, ethnicity, class and disability, from a broadly psychoanalytic perspective, and traces the mechanisms which define the role of the physical appearance in the formation of identity and the assumption of social roles. Body Image and Identity in Contemporary Societies' unique interdisciplinary outlook aims to bridge the current gap between clinical observations and research in semiotic theory. It will be of interest to psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, art therapists, art theorists, academics in the humanities and social sciences, and those interested in an interdisciplinary approach to the issues of body image and identity. Ekaterina Sukhanova is University Director of Academic Program Review at the City University of New York USA. She serves as Scientific Secretary of the Section for Art and Psychiatry and the Section of Art and Psychiatry of the World Psychiatric Association. She is also engaged in interdisciplinary research on cultural constructs of mental health and illness and curates exhibits of art brut as a vehicle for fighting stigma. Hans-Otto Thomashoff was born in Germany and lives in Vienna. He is a psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, art historian and author of fiction and non-fiction books. He has been curator of several art exhibitions highlighting the connection between the psyche and art as well as president of the section of Art and Psychiatry of the World Psychiatric Association and advisory committee member of the Sigmund Freud Foundation, Vienna.
