'Western science began in poetry with the cosmology of the Greek presocratic poets; the Renaissance began with the re-discovery of De Rerum Natura, a Latin epic on atomic theory. Rachel McCarthy, a first-rate scientist and poet, takes these relationships further in exploring the periodic table, using it to look at human life through the elegant precision of both poetry and science.' - Ruth Padel 'Taut, intelligent, lyrical, Rachel McCarthy s poems wear their scientific impulses as lightly as fine linen. Again and again McCarthy weaves idea, experience and feeling into works that remind us how rich and extraordinary life is in all of its intricate nuance.' - Carrie Etter 'The poems in Element are deftly assembled, easily erudite, wide-ranging, sincere. The reader learns from them by being taken pleasurably to science, the classics and personal observation.' - Harry Guest

The Man from the Train

An Edgar Award finalist for Best Fact Crime, this “impressive…open-eyed investigative inquiry wrapped within a cultural history of rural America” (The Wall Street Journal) shows legendary statistician and baseball writer Bill James applying his analytical acumen to crack an unsolved century-old mystery surrounding one of the deadliest serial killers in American history.

The Irish in Haverhill, Massachusetts

Irish immigration to Haverhill, Massachusetts, was a constant from the days of the Great Famine to the present. The immigrants, their children, and their grandchildren have become an integral part of the fabric of the city's history. Some were teachers, politicians, police officers, and business owners, while others spent their lives as city laborers and factory workers. Whether these new residents were wealthy or poor, well known or little known, their experiences in America could not eliminate their common ties to the Emerald Isle. They collectively share a place in this "family album" of those Irish citizens who called Haverhill their new home. This volume is the sequel to the The Irish in Haverhill, Massachusetts, which was published in 1998. The response to that book was so enthusiastic that the author was overwhelmed with offers of additional photographs for a second volume.

Corporate Communication and Integrated Marketing Communication

In this book, Christina L. McDowell Marinchak and Sarah M. DeIuliis explore ways to unite corporate communication and integrated marketing communication (IMC ) by better understanding the human communication relationships people have with companies and brands in a technological age. Specifically, the authors analyze the historical development of corporate communication and IMC, the importance of rhetorically engaging audiences ethically, and the relationship between organizational culture and corporate communication and IMC practices. Drawing on a wide array of popular culture and industry examples, McDowell Marinchak and DeIuliis provide a practical approach and argument for bringing together corporate communication and IMC to better understand audience in business practices. In an age where the connection between consumption and identity are further compounded by communication technologies, this approach offers an ethical and pragmatic way to reach audiences beyond stakeholders. Scholars of communication, public relations, and business will find this book of particular interest.
