Today's Moral Issues
Suitable for contemporary moral problems courses, this work provides theoretical readings related to the contemporary issues readings that follow: students connect theory and practice, thereby making the theory relevant. It also lends a historical perspective with its inclusion of selections by philosophers such as Aristotle, Kant, and Locke.
Killing Freud
Killing Freud takes the reader on a journey through the 20th century, tracing the work and influence of one of its greatest icons, Sigmund Freud. A devastating critique, Killing Freud ranges across the strange case of Anna O, the hysteria of Josef Breuer, the love of dogs, the Freud industry, the role of gossip and fiction, bad manners, pop psychology and French philosophy, figure skating on thin ice, and contemporary therapy culture. A map to the Freudian minefield and a masterful negotiation of high theory and low culture, Killing Freud is a witty and fearless revaluation of psychoanalysis and its real place in 20th century history. It will appeal to anyone curious about the life of the mind after the death of Freud.
All Things Must Fight to Live
In All Things Must Fight to Live, Bryan Mealer takes readers on a harrowing two-thousand mile journey through Congo, where gun-toting militia still rape and kill with impunity. Amidst burnt-out battlefields where armies still wrestle for control, into the dark corners of the forests, and along the high savanna, where thousands have been slaughtered and quickly forgotten, Mealer searches for signs that Africa's most troubled state will soon rise from ruin. At once illuminating and startling, All Things Must Fight to Live is a searing portrait of an emerging country facing unimaginable upheaval and almost impossible odds, as well as an unflinching look at the darkness that continues to exist in the hearts of men. It is non-fiction at its finest-powerful, moving, necessary.

The American Approach to Foreign Policy
This is the second volume in a series which will examine the credibility of U.S. institutions, policies and leadership. The series is being brought out by the White Burket Miller Center of Public Affairs through the assistance of the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation. The main theme of Professor Crabb's study of pragmatism is that the credibility of philosophies of politics and foreign policies rests on their intellectual foundations. However, the public's acceptance of a philosophy depends on its ability to understand its assumptions and tenets. A philosophy may be sound intellectually but lacking in public understanding and comprehension. ISBN 0-8191-4423-1: $16.50.
Self Reliance and National Resilience
“Till recently dialogues and exchanges on strategic questions had unfortunately been an exclusive Western monopoly. The perceptions of our scholars, journalists and others tended to be influenced largely by the vast quantities of literature produced by Western strategic sources. Academicians from the non-aligned world very often met each other in conferences organized under Western auspices. There are very few fields in which our academic dependence has been as great as in the field of strategic studies. “This Seminar represents a significant departure from this pattern. It affords an opportunity for the two non-aligned friendly neighbours to get together to discuss our respective strate...
