Broken
My Story of Addiction and Redemption
By William Cope Moyers
Review by Bruce MacDonald on Tue, May 6th 2008.
Broken by William Cope MoyersWilliam Cope Moyers begins his memoir with an action film flourish. A desperate man is holed up in a rundown apartment in inner city Atlanta, men pounding on the door and demanding he come out. We soon learn that the apartment is a crack house, the desperate man is Moyers, and the cinematic, tension-filled scene we are reading is actually an account of an intervention initiated by his family. It is a strong opening. It is also the first suggestion of a recurring flair for drama that could remind some of the too-dramatic-to-be-true approach of a James Frey. That author’s discredited pseud

Everything Is Miscellaneous
The Power of the New Digital Disorder
By David Weinberger
Review by Joshua Finnell on Tue, May 6th 2008.
Everything Is Miscellaneous by David WeinbergerDavid Weinberger, a fellow at Harvard Law School's Berkman Center for the Internet & Society, has made a significant contribution to the emerging scholarship on the classification of knowledge.  His principal thesis is that we must eradicate the idea that there's a best way to organize information.  As a corollary, Weinberger believes we must rethink the relationship between organization and knowledge.Analyzing the structure of organization, Weinberger describes three orders of order. The first-order of order is based on the object itself, such as grouping all of the book

Consciousness, Self-Consciousness, and the Science of Being Human
By Simeon Locke
Review by Brian J. McVeigh on Tue, May 6th 2008.
Consciousness, Self-Consciousness, and the Science of Being Human by Simeon LockeIn English "consciousness" has several very different meanings: (1) the neuro-physiological state of not sleeping; (2) the neuro-physiological state of not being in a coma; (3) cognition; and (4) more specific definitions of (4), such as perception, what one's inner self introspects upon, self-awareness, etc. (to be thorough, one more definition might be mentioned: the mutual self-awareness of a collectivity, e.g., national consciousness, class consciousness).  The problem with the word "consciousness," then, is just not its ambiguity, but rather its promiscuousnes

The Woman Racket
The New Science Explaining How the Sexes Relate at Work, at Play and in Society
By Steve Moxon
Review by George Williamson, Ph.D. on Tue, May 6th 2008.
The Woman Racket by Steve MoxonThe Woman Racket is a singularly odd book.  The subtitle proposes to present "the new science explaining how the sexes relate at work, at play and in society", but the science presented isn't all that new, nor is much science presented.  Author Steve Moxon hit the scene a few years ago when he exposed a scandal in the British Home Office that led to the resignation of the immigration minister.  However, as the story goes, he was only in the Home Office to study its human resources policy, on the way to writing the present book -- ten years in the making, so it'

Educating People to Be Emotionally Intelligent
By Reuven Bar-On, J.G. Maree, and Maurice Jesse Elias (Editors)
Review by Leo Uzych, J.D., M.P.H. on Tue, May 6th 2008.
Educating People to Be Emotionally Intelligent by Reuven Bar-On, J.G. Maree, and Maurice Jesse Elias (Editors)Educating People to be Emotionally Intelligent provides an expansive overview of emotional intelligence ("EI"), anchored firmly in the bedrock of extant research, theory, and practice relating to EI.  The text has been constructed expertly by a triad of distinguished editors (Reuven Bar-On is the Director of EI Research in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, at the University of Texas Medical Branch; J.G. Maree is a Professor of Education, at Pretoria University; and Maurice Jesse Elias is a Professor in the Psychology Department, at Rutgers University) working

Architecture of Authority
By Richard Ross
Review by Mark Welch, Ph.D. on Tue, May 6th 2008.
Architecture of Authority by Richard RossThis is a deceptively simple book. It consists of a series of photographs of places and situations associated with various types and levels of authority, from school houses to prisons. The photographs are spare, most often without any human or sense of movement, and invite the viewer to regard these monuments in silence and solitude. They are as threatening as an execution room and as uplifting and humbling as a great mosque. They are from various places around the world, New York Police Stations, Mexican jails, Syrian railway stations, even the United Nations. Perhaps, most intriguingly they

DVD
By Steven Cantor (Director)
Review by Christian Perring on Tue, May 6th 2008.
What Remains: The Life and Work of Sally Mann by Steven Cantor (Director)Sally Mann is known for her collection of photographs Immediate Family, which shows her children at their rural family home in Lexington, Virginia.  Since the publication of that book, she has done mainly landscapes near her home, photographs of her husband Larry, who has a rare form of muscular dystrophy, and photographs of decaying bodies, including humans at the Tennessee Body Farm and her own pet dog.  Filmmaker Steven Cantor spent a great deal of time with the Mann family, and also includes parts of his earlier documentary about Mann filmed at the time she was taking the picture

The Eyes of van Gogh
By Cathryn Clinton
Review by Amy Ridley on Tue, May 6th 2008.
The Eyes of van Gogh by Cathryn ClintonJude and her mother move frequently. Their moves are decided by who her mother had just broken up with. Their latest move is to a town in Pennsylvania and is not based on a man. Instead it is because Jude's grandmother, who she did not know existed, has become ill. Her mother, who attracted low-life men and lacked mothering skills, has visited her mother once in the nursing home and left Jude to be her only visitor. Since she has never had a family, Jude becomes quite attached to her comatose grandmother.Jude has always tried to fly under the radar. She did not raise her hand in class, mak
