Elegant, exuberant, and idiosyncratic, Acting My Age is a memoir and meditation by one of America's most inventive writers.

Farber T: Acting My Age

Acting My Age

2025 CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title A powerful critique of mass incarceration by the people who have experienced it Inside Knowledge is the first book to examine the American prison system through the eyes of those who are trapped within it. Drawing from the writings collected in the American Prison Writing Archive, Doran Larson deftly illustrates how mass incarceration does less to contain any harm perpetrated by convicted people than to spread and perpetuate harm among their families and communities. Inside Knowledge makes a powerful argument that America's prisons not only degrade and debilitate their wards but also defeat the prison's cardinal missions of rehabilitation, containment, deterrence, and even meaningful retribution. If prisons are places where convicted people are sent to learn a lesson, then imprisoned people are the ones who know just what American prisons actually teach. At once profound and devastating, Inside Knowledge is an invaluable resource for those interested in addressing mass incarceration in America.

Artificial Reefs: Refining Their Role in the Environment and Local Economies represents the accumulation of over 50 years of research on artificial reefs, as presented at the 12th International Conference on Artificial Reefs and Related Aquatic Habitats (CARAH) held in Colombia in the spring of 2025. The edited, multi-authored chapters offer an up-to-date examination of broad areas of artificial reefs. These include fisheries, environmental management, survey techniques, sophisticated applications of statistical analysis, socio-economics, and the role of the citizen scientists in further expanding future research efforts.A general theme throughout the volume is the consideration given to historical trends in methods, developments, and changes that have occurred during the past 50 years. This book builds on the strong foundation laid by our earlier colleagues and mentors. Each chapter brings together a long and fabled history of research but, more importantly, demonstrates the progress and development that artificial reef research has taken with the inclusion of modern technology, sophisticated analyses, and broadened goals of artificial reef deployments.Careful consideration is given in every chapter to the relationships artificial reefs have with the local communities with which they are proximate. The subtitle of the book thus emphasizes the modern role that artificial reefs are playing in the economies of coastal communities.This foundational material will provide guidance for the next 50 years of research on artificial reefs.

How to Write Stunning Sentences

Now in paperback, a revealing collection from the intellectual titan whose work shaped the modern world. As an economist and public intellectual, Gary S. Becker was a giant. The recipient of a Nobel Prize, a John Bates Clark Medal, and a Presidential Medal of Freedom, Becker is widely regarded as the greatest microeconomist in history. After forty years at the University of Chicago, Becker left a slew of unpublished writings that used an economic approach to human behavior, analyzing such topics as preference formation, rational indoctrination, income inequality, drugs and addiction, and the economics of family. These papers unveil the process and personality--direct, critical, curious--that made him a beloved figure in his field and beyond. The Economic Approach examines these extant works as a capstone to the Becker oeuvre--not because the works are perfect, but because they offer an illuminating, instructive glimpse into the machinations of an economist who wasn't motivated by publications. Here, and throughout his works, an inquisitive spirit remains remarkable and forever resonant.

News Writing and Reporting

A creative masterclass for aspiring and established writers alikeAfter decades of writing award-winning books on subjects ranging from poetry to art to liturgical seasons, celebrated author Marilyn McEntyre turns her attention to the vocation that has shaped her life. Start with a Word: On the Craft and Adventure of Writing is a literary masterclass that eschews drills and formulas in favor of close readings and refreshingly playful advice.A veteran teacher, Marilyn understands that the best writing instruction doesn't come from rigid rules or rote approaches to filling the blank page. Instead, she demonstrates how the writers whose works we have enjoyed can become our tutors. She calls us to move beyond asking "What does this text say?" to a more revealing question: "How does this text work?" This shift in perspective--from passive consumption to active apprenticeship--transforms how we encounter literature and how we create it.More than a how-to manual, Start with a Word is an invitation into a way of being that honors both the precision and the mystery of words. It offers short lessons on essential elements of literary craft, close readings of passages from a range of works, writing prompts, and, above all, encouragement for authors to find their unique path into work only they can create. "Reading and writing keep alive in us the desire to be precise, lively, surprising, generous, inviting, challenging, wise. They make us want to be good, if only in the sense that choosing exact and appropriate words is a matter of choosing the good. . . . I don't think you can be an excellent writer without developing some virtues, if only fidelity to a practice that honors the gift of language."
