Foreign Correspondence
This extensively revised edition reads like an adventure story about the vital role of the foreign correspondent throughout history. From the roles of Winston Churchill and Georges Clemenceau to those of some of history's greatest war correspondents from Ernie Pyle to Peter Arnett, Hohenberg, himself a reporter of considerable standing, distills the wars and historical moments that have shaped world politics. In the second edition, Hohenberg emphasizes the American experience, particularly the recent role of television and daily newspaper correspondents in Vietnam, the Gulf War, and the post-Cold War crises. He also examines of the role of the foreign correspondent in the future and the impact of new media technologies on this profession.
Silver Linings
This is a book that shows people how the worst things that happen to them can often be blessings in disguise, and how to use make the most of those blessings -- as catalysts to lasting and significant life changes. When life seems unfair, itÆs easy to lose hope and give in to despair and bitterness. But in Silver Linings, psychotherapist Melissa West shows how to create meaning from life-shattering events, making misfortune not a death sentence but rather a call to courage and change. With this practical and inspirational program, West takes readers through the three stages of Loss, Wilderness, and New Life, a journey that leads to wholeness and wisdom.

ReFiguring Global Challenges
An important task for scholars of cultural studies and the humanities, as well as for artistic creators, is to refigure the frames and concepts by which the world as we know it is kept in place. Without these acts of refiguration, the future could only ever be more of the (violent) same. In close dialogue with literary and cinematic works and practices, the essays of this volume help refigure and rethink such pressing contemporary issues as migration, inequality, racism, post-coloniality, political violence and human-animal relations. A range of fresh perspectives are introduced, amounting to a call for intellectuals to remain critically engaged with the social and planetary.
