"Doctors reading this book will not only be convinced of the need for medical supervison (for all doctors - even pathologists and coroners); they will also be given a handy smorgasbord of different types of medical supervision from which to choose ... There may not be many ways of rekindling the spark of compassion and loving kindness that made us want to become health professionals at the start of our careers, but Owen and Shohet have demonstrated that empathic supervision, whether this is from fellow professionals or from peers, is certainly one way of achieving this."

Richard Pochinko (1946-89) played a pioneering role in North American clown theater through the creation of an original pedagogy synthesizing modern European and indigenous Native American techniques. In Clown Through Mask, Veronica Coburn and onetime Pochinko apprentice Sue Morrison lay out the methodology of the Pochinko style of clowning and offer a bold philosophical framework for its interpretation. Morrison is today a leading teacher of Pochinko's Clown through Mask technique and this book extends significantly the literature on this underdocumented form of theater.

The central and precipitating event in this first-rate historical novel by the author of The Kingmakers is the genocide of the Armenians carried out by the Turks in 1915. As a girl of 12, Zora Kazorian witnesses her mother's murder and the slaughter of her neighbors at the hands of the Turkish butcher Kemal Gokalp, aka the Gray Wolf. After a long struggle, she escapes to America with her 10-year-old brother Arra. Years of a different kind of struggle ensue, and in the end the Kazorians achieve brilliant success in their new country-she as an opera diva and he as a businessman. But success is not enough. Zora burns with a need to right the old wrong, or at least gain an admission that it occurred; most people quickly forgot about the massacre, a fact that was not lost on Hitler. So, 40 years later, Zora arranges an accounting with the perpetrators. Richly and authentically detailed, with characters of dimension and substance, this novel convincingly illuminates a tragic era. In addition to his vivid characterizations, Sederberg's ability to integrate long stretches of time and wide sweeps of geography and circumstance is impressive.
