Undermining
“A marvelous slim book [that] weaves . . . ideas, facts, images, and histories into a whole about . . . the ecology of the manmade world.” —Rebecca Solnit In Undermining, the award-winning author, art historian and social critic Lucy R.

The Abductors
When people are found murdered and others begin to disappear in Sunland, New Mexico, and El Paso, Texas, the FBI calls in John Burton and Sally Martin. People have been disappearing at an alarming rate. No trace of the missing people has been found, no clues are forthcoming, and there are no hints of foul play. They just...disappear. With nothing to go on, John and Sally must find the missing link, the common denominator, even as the numbers grow. Coupled with this, a former member of John’s Special Forces unit, whom John had transferred out of his unit back in Vietnam for conduct unbecoming, must aid them in their search. The man is now the chief of police in Sunland Park. Roger Haskell is not happy to see his former squad leader, and the resentment grows while the two men are forced to work together. As the numbers grow and the dead bodies increase, John and Sally must use all their wits and all their knowledge to stop whoever is responsible.

Anglo-American Exchange in Postwar Sculpture, 1945–1975
Anglo-American Exchange in Postwar Sculpture, 1945-1975 redresses an important art historical oversight. Histories of American and British sculpture are usually told separately, with artists and their work divided by nationality; yet such boundaries obscure a vibrant exchange of ideas, individuals, and aesthetic influences. In reality, the postwar art world saw dynamic interactions between British and American sculptors, critics, curators, teachers, and institutions. Using works of art as points of departure, this book explores the international movement of people, objects, and ideas, demonstrating the importance of Anglo-American exchange to the history of postwar sculpture.
