The Country Doctor Revisited
An anthology that addresses the changing nature of rural medicine in the United States "These authors courageously document the emotional and literally physical vulnerabilities they experience while delivering care in rural communities. ... This book exquisitely illustrates the complexity of 'dual relationships' and boundary issues in rural practice."--Family Medicine Over the past thirty years, rural health care in the United States has changed dramatically. The stereotypical white-haired doctor with his black bag of instruments and his predominantly white, small-town clientele has imploded: the global age has reached rural America. Independently owned clinics have given way to a massive sy...
Bound Together
For sixteen years, these talented poets have met over dinner, sharing their lives, the mundane and the sacred, sharing their words. The evolution and bonding of a writing group remains a mystery. This group of women poets grew in an atmosphere of affirmation, raucous laughter, and gentle challenge. Life stories, ordinary and profound experiences and insights, were shared. In this collection of their work, distinct writing styles and philosophies emerged to express each individual's unique search for understanding, for a patch of ground to stand on in the wind. Walking together through time and transitions, through the dark struggles, and the surprise of joy, they created this collaborative work and wove the scattered sands of their lives together, lending strength to each of their voices.
Habits
"Habits" is a collection of 100-word stories about the life of Roman Catholic nuns in the twentieth century. These vignettes are based on material from oral histories and other stories. They chart changes to religious life and the experiences of American Benedictine women in the Midwest from the 1920s-1990s, with special focus on community life, prayer and work.

Pablo López Luz: Baja Moda
The project Baja Moda (Low Fashion) explores two key aspects of contemporary Latin American culture: identity and resistance. While working on a previous project across Latin America, I began documenting store fronts and shoe shops still standing unaltered through the passage of time, unconcerned with the tendencies of modern globalized culture, seemingly opposing the economic transition to overseas manufacturing.
Alex Stoddard: Insex
"Stoddard has an impressive vision for composition ... each one seemingly marries fear and darkness with the delicacy of purity and the organic." -Juxtapoz This debut monograph from the Los Angeles-based photographer Alex Stoddard explores the parallels between metamorphosis in the natural world and human coming-of-age. Through staged, highly stylized images, Stoddard invites viewers into his magical, colorfully dark world of budding sexuality and crawling insects. Each detailed scene features a youthful subject--often Stoddard himself--in a state of change or paired with a many-legged counterpart. The previously unreleased series of 70 images paints a surreal picture of adolescence and youn...
Belles, Beaux and Brains of the 60's (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from Belles, Beaux and Brains of the 60's My publishers ask for my preface. What readers I reach will thank me for having forgotten it. It has been said that a book Without a preface is a salad Without salt. Possibly: but a salad that carried with each plate a recipe for its every ingredient and condiment, might fail of digestion. The literary kitchen is not always appetizing, however dainty its perfected products may, appear. The preface is that defunct bore of Greek drama Chorus exhumed to interrupt the action. The book that needs that is apt to prove a pretty bad one} for'the preface tells Why a book is written and at what it aims. The latter is indubitably to instruct or entertai...
