Book excerpt: Tracy Beckerman’s kids have flown the coop, which has left her plenty of time to further settle into the happy life of a happy wife to a loving husband. Flowers are blooming, tails are wagging ... and the ducks are on the verge of a hostile takeover. In this collection of top hits from her nationally syndicated column, “Lost in Suburbia,” Beckerman forges a path through the blissful chaos of her idyllic life in suburban New Jersey. She somehow manages to keep her cool despite an unending wave of dining disasters, awkward conversations with the doctor’s office receptionist, and the horrors of *gasp* aging! Beckerman lays it all out with the refreshing honesty, humor, and sage advice that you’d expect from your best friend in the ‘burbs. “Cool suburban mom” is not an oxymoron. Sharp, witty, and irreverent, Beckerman will have you rolling with laughter and checking your toilet paper supply.

Book excerpt: Thousands of books have examined the effects of parents on their children. In All Joy and No Fun, award-winning journalist Jennifer Senior now asks: what are the effects of children on their parents? In All Joy and No Fun, award-winning journalist Jennifer Senior tries to tackle this question, isolating and analyzing the many ways in which children reshape their parents' lives, whether it's their marriages, their jobs, their habits, their hobbies, their friendships, or their internal senses of self. She argues that changes in the last half century have radically altered the roles of today's mothers and fathers, making their mandates at once more complex and far less clear. Recruiting from a wide variety of sources—in history, sociology, economics, psychology, philosophy, and anthropology—she dissects both the timeless strains of parenting and the ones that are brand new, and then brings her research to life in the homes of ordinary parents around the country. The result is an unforgettable series of family portraits, starting with parents of young children and progressing to parents of teens. Through lively and accessible storytelling, Senior follows these mothers and fathers as they wrestle with some of parenthood's deepest vexations—and luxuriate in some of its finest rewards. Meticulously researched yet imbued with emotional intelligence, All Joy and No Fun makes us reconsider some of our culture's most basic beliefs about parenthood, all while illuminating the profound ways children deepen and add purpose to our lives. By focusing on parenthood, rather than parenting, the book is original and essential reading for mothers and fathers of today—and tomorrow.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Secrets of Happy Families, New York Times bestselling author Bruce Feiler has drawn up a blueprint for modern families — a new approach to family dynamics, inspired by cutting-edge techniques gathered from experts in the disciplines of science, business, sports, and the military. Don't worry about family dinner. Let your kids pick their punishments. Ditch the sex talk. Cancel date night. These are just a few of the surprising innovations in this bold first-of-its-kind playbook for today's families. Bestselling author and New York Times family columnist Bruce Feiler found himself squeezed between caring for aging parents and raising his children. So he set out on a three-year journey to find the smartest solutions and the most cutting-edge research about families. Instead of the usual family "experts," he sought out the most creative minds—from Silicon Valley to the set of Modern Family, from the country's top negotiators to the Green Berets—and asked them what team-building exercises and problem-solving techniques they use with their families. Feiler then tested these ideas with his wife and kids. The result is a fun, original look at how families can draw closer together, complete with 200 never-before-seen best practices. Feiler's life-changing discoveries include a radical plan to reshape your family in twenty minutes a week, Warren Buffett's guide for setting an allowance, and the Harvard handbook for resolving conflict. The Secrets of Happy Families is a timely, counterintuitive book that answers the questions countless parents are asking: How do we manage the chaos of our lives? How do we teach our kids values? How do we make our family happier? Written in a charming, accessible style, The Secrets of Happy Families is smart, funny, and fresh, and will forever change how your family lives every day.

Book excerpt: A New York Times Book Review Notable Book “Whom to marry, and when will it happen—these two questions define every woman’s existence.” So begins Spinster, a revelatory and slyly erudite look at the pleasures and possibilities of remaining single. Using her own experiences as a starting point, journalist and cultural critic Kate Bolick invites us into her carefully considered, passionately lived life, weaving together the past and present to examine why she—along with over 100 million American women, whose ranks keep growing—remains unmarried. This unprecedented demographic shift, Bolick explains, is the logical outcome of hundreds of years of change that has neither been fully understood, nor appreciated. Spinster introduces a cast of pioneering women from the last century whose genius, tenacity, and flair for drama have emboldened Bolick to fashion her life on her own terms: columnist Neith Boyce, essayist Maeve Brennan, social visionary Charlotte Perkins Gilman, poet Edna St. Vincent Millay, and novelist Edith Wharton. By animating their unconventional ideas and choices, Bolick shows us that contemporary debates about settling down, and having it all, are timeless—the crucible upon which all thoughtful women have tried for centuries to forge a good life. Intellectually substantial and deeply personal, Spinster is both an unreservedly inquisitive memoir and a broader cultural exploration that asks us to acknowledge the opportunities within ourselves to live authentically. Bolick offers us a way back into our own lives—a chance to see those splendid years when we were young and unencumbered, or middle-aged and finally left to our own devices, for what they really are: unbounded and our own to savor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This fine collection of perspectives and information will fill a major gap and help to push communication study in an urgently needed direction. Undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty alike have much to gain from this text."--John Downing, Department of Radio-Television-Film, University of Texas, Austin "This is a well-conceived and provocative collection that goes a long way toward filling a real void in available classroom textbooks. I have no doubt that it will provoke many hours of discussion and debate about the relations between contemporary media forms and the politics of identity and difference."--Larry Grossberg, Morris Davis Professor of Communication Studies, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill "This is one of the few books that really attempts to take the topic of mass media seriously while demonstrating a range of languages and approaches that illustrate what doing cultural studies is actually about." --Henry Giroux, Waterbury Chair, The Pennsylvania State University "A terrific book--broad based in cultural and critical studies. Gender, Race, and Class in Media is an excellent text for courses in which multiple perspectives are represented." --Ellen Wartella, Dean, College of Communication, University of Texas, Austin An introductory text-reader, Gender, Race, and Class in Media critically examines the mass media as economic and cultural institutions that shape our social identities, especially in regard to gender, race, and class. Through an analysis of such popular genres as soap operas, talk shows, rap music, sitcoms, rock videos, pornography, made-for-TV movies, advertising, and romance novels, students are invited to engage in critical mass media scholarship. From a critical/cultural perspective, the comprehensive introduction delineates the major paradigms in media studies today. It outlines the text's integrated approach to media studies, which incorporates three distinct but related areas of investigation within media studies: political economy of production textual analysis audience response/resistance Chapter introductions to the selected readings, which are drawn from original essays and influential previously published articles, provide a framework for understanding and analyzing how gender, race, and class are structural and experiential categories that inform the production, construction, and consumption of media representations. Gender, Race, and Class in Media is designed as a comprehensive critical introduction to mass media, but it can also be used as a supplement to a more standard text. This text-reader is also valuable for such courses as sociology of media, media criticism, cultural studies, popular culture, journalism, visual literacy, and especially where a critical approach is used.

Book excerpt: Lucas Delgado Guerrero’s skin is too brown and his accent too foreign for him to feel truly at home in England. Returning to Mexico, which he scarcely remembers, however, is hardly a choice. So he remains in London, publishing an illegal newspaper devoted to reformist and revolutionary causes. One of his most popular writers is the intriguing and mysterious Polly Dicax, who delivers sharp, witty screeds by messenger every week. At twenty-five, Lady Honora Pearce is too busy writing seditious treatises to pay much attention to men. Especially when marrying would mean giving up the very rights she argues for in her fierce diatribes. She is, however, intrigued by the editorials written by one of her publishers. Here, at least, is a man with worthy ideas and ideals. Not that she ever expects to meet him, since both their identities must remain secret. But everything changes when circumstances force her to deliver her weekly column herself and, on the heels of her arrival at the printer’s shop, the police raid the premises. To protect the shopkeeper and themselves, Honora and Lucas must hide together in a small chamber. They shouldn’t have to kiss, but somehow, they do. And when Honora finds she can’t stay away, Lucas discovers he can’t refuse her, even if he can never be more than her bit of rough.
