Robert Frank
Photographer Robert Frank is best known for his seminal 1958 book The Americans, which was controversial when first published for its casual camerawork and bleak view of America. Frank is now widely recognized as having developed a distinct new art form, the photo book. The Books So Far is an exquisite limited edition of 1500 hand-made boxes containing all 17 of the photo books that Frank has made with Steidl since joining forces in 2004. They include: The Americans, Portfolio, Peru, Me and My Brother, One Hour, Away, Black, White and Things, Mabou, New York to Nova Scotia, Storylines, Pull My Daisy, Hold Still - Keep Going, Come Again, Paris, Polaroids, Zero Mostel Reads a Book and London/Wales. A remarkable object, this collection is an exhaustive celebration of Frank's oeuvre and a record of the evolution of the photo book.
Handbook of Rehabilitation Psychology
With chronic health problems rising steadily, rehabilitation is expected to escalate to a major health care concern. This book is a ground breaking resource that captures the depth of this changing field by combining the traditional areas in rehabilitation, such as spinal cord injury, brain injury, and limb amputation, with new areas of expertise, such as neuroimaging, functional outcomes, and new models of rehabilitation. Since its emergence as a separate field over 40 years ago, rehabilitation psychology has expanded to include numerous disciplines. Accordingly, the handbook's coverage runs the gamut from clinical psychology and neuropsychology to social psychology and health policy and includes a list of acronyms and resources as well as a glossary. As scientist-practitioners, chapter authors cover chronic disease, injury, and disability, addressing contemporary practice, research, and policy issues.

Under the Influence
"From New York Times bestselling author and economics columnist Robert Frank, a revelatory look at the power and potential of social context. As psychologists have long understood, social environments profoundly shape our behavior, sometimes for the better, but often for the worse. Less widely noted is that social influence is a two-way street: Our environments are in large part themselves a product of the choices we make. Society embraces regulations that limit physical harm to others, as when smoking restrictions are defended as protecting bystanders from secondhand smoke. But we have been slower to endorse parallel steps that discourage harmful social environments, as when regulators fail...

Postcards from the Road
Walker Evans said in his 1958 introduction to Robert Frank’s The Americans, 'For the thousandth time, it must be said that pictures speak for themselves, wordlessly, visually, or they fail.' The images revolutionized post-war American photography. With their candid images of men and women from all classes and walks of life, the photographs presented a very different story than that portrayed by the wholesome caricature of midcentury prosperity pervading American photography at the time. Although initially dismissed by his peers for his pioneering work, Frank was ultimately credited with changing the course of the art form, and his photography holds a secure status in the history of twentie...
