Sum of Her Parts
Marina Lorca spent almost a year in a psychiatric rehab center. Unlike the other patients, however, she had no interest in getting high. She only used when one of her other personalities was in control. Upon release, Marina's counselor referred her to Esther Laird, a therapist who specialized in dissociative identity disorder. With Esther's guidance, Marina began to process the ritualistic abuse that had permeated her childhood, and she grew more adept at communicating with the alternate personalities that had arisen to help her cope with it. But getting all of her "parts" to work in harmony became urgent when a former abuser went missing—abducted by one of her alters. Providing insight into a poorly understood and very real condition, Sum of Her Parts tells the gripping story of a survivor who learns to take the reins of her own mind.

"We Will Never Yield"
How did German Jews present their claims for equality to everyday Germans in the first half of the nineteenth century? We Will Never Yield offers the first English-language study of the role of the German press in the fight for Jewish agency and participation during the 1840s. David Meola explores how the German press became a key venue for public debates over Jewish emancipation; religious, educational, and occupational reforms; and the role of Jews in German civil society, even against a background of escalating violence against the Jews in Germany. We Will Never Yield sheds light on the struggle for equality by German Jews in the 1840s and demonstrates the value of this type of archival source of Jewish voices that has been previously underappreciated by historians of Jewish history.
