The Dachau Defendants: Life Stories from Testimony and Documents of the War Crimes Prosecutions
This study concentrates or a selection of the trials that show a broad group of representative crimes and lend themselves to an understanding of World War II German culture. In proving that the average citizen could be as devoted a contributor to the Nazi cause as Hitler, the work reveals something about those who would not stand up to him, who tolerated him, or who joined him.

Film Fables
"Film Fables "traces the history of modern cinema, moving effortlessly from Eisenstein's and Murnau's transition from theatre to film to Fritz Lang's confrontation with television, from the classical poetics of Mann's Westerns to Ray's romantic poetics of the image, from Rossellini's neo-realism to Deleuze's philosophy of the cinema and Marker's documentaries.

Egon Schiele
Egon Schiele was regarded by many of his contemporaries as the predestined successor to Gustav Klimt, but died before he could fulfill his promise. His fascinating but not wholly admirable character is accounted for, at least in part, by his family background and upbringing. His father Adolf worked for the Austrian State Railways, and was in charge of the important station at Tulln where his son was born in June 1890.

Don't Think of an Elephant: Know Your Values and Frame the Debate: The Essential Guide for Progressives
George Lakoff, UC Berkeley cognitive linguist and author of Moral Politics: How Liberals and Conservatives Think, has emerged as one of the leading progressive voices on the importance of language, the framing of political issues, and how to best define and communicate about values. Lakoff has advised top Democrats, such as Howard Dean, Barack Obama and now John Kerry's team, and appears regularly on television and radio programs, such as "Now" and "All Things Considered." To help progressives in the crucial last weeks before November 2, George Lakoff and Chelsea Green Publishing are taking on the challenge of getting out to all progressives a handbook for how to personally reach out to new and undecided voters, and to articulate a progressive vision for America. This book, Dont Think of an Elephant: Progressive Values and the Framing Wars, will be made available just after the Republican Convention, in early September.

Greetings from Indiana: Vintage Hoosier Postcards by Robert Reed, ISBN 0253216516
During the first half of the 20th century, nearly every store had a rack of postcards for sale. At a cost of one cent for the card itself, plus another cent for postage, the postcard was an efficient way to send a message. Household telephones were scarce, television wasn't invented yet, and photography was prohibitively time-consuming and expensive for the average person. The postcard served as a means of communication that was quick, with the added bonus of an interesting picture that could be displayed or put into an album. Depicting street scenes, landmarks, fine homes, and roadways, "Greetings from Indiana charmingly captures the state's rural and urban past. The points of origin range from Alexandria to Zionsville, representing 70 different Indiana communities. Handwritten messages by laborers, sales clerks, teachers, traveling salesmen, students, relatives, and others, as well as tourist promotions of the time, add further charm to this remarkable assembly of more than 250 vintage...

Andy Warhol: Motion Pictures
Prolific, mercurial, thought-provoking, charming, dynamic, confusing--just like the artist himself. Andy Warhol's films explore the gamut of human emotion. From the time he obtained his first film camera in 1963, up until his death in 1937, Warhol explored and created moving images ranging from epic films, to personal portraits, to programs for cable television, to music videos. In fact, in a mere five years (1963-1968) he produced nearly 650 films including hundreds of silent screen tests--portrait films--and dozens of full length movies, in styles ranging from minimalist avant-garde to commercial exploitation.B" His films and videos capture the rich and raw texture of the fertile cultural milieu in which he lived and worked, and are crucial to the understanding of Warhol's work in other media.
