Review

‘There are four reasons why you should read this book. First, the international system is inevitably being transformed by technology and global integration; this book presents a coherent vision of a successor system that would be superior to others currently on offer. Second, the system it describes is an answer to the perennial objection to eliminating nuclear weapons, which is that there is no better way to prevent war: yes, there is, it says. Third, this book is an encyclopaedic history of things you never knew before about world peace through law and the ‘practical men’ like Teddy Roosevelt, who supported the idea. And fourth, if you think ponderous prose goes with the territory on this subject, think again: this book is engaging, lively, and fun.’ -- James Goodby, Chief U.S. Negotiator for the Safe and Secure Dismantlement of Nuclear Weapons (1993). ‘There is no problem more important than halting the illegal use of armed force to settle international disputes. James Taylor Ranney's book offers the readers a comprehensive historical analysis with possible solutions to contemporaneous conflicts. It is an invaluable goldmine for all students concerned with current problems of world peace.’ -- Benjamin B. Ferencz, Former Nuremberg War Crimes Prosecutor and Peace Advocate ‘A powerful argument that the abolition of nuclear weapons requires a stronger regime for the peaceful resolution of international disputes. Ranney marshals compelling evidence that the world is moving in that direction in any case because of the need for peaceful solutions of the multiplying issues that are arising in global markets and the global commons. The danger from nuclear weapons is so acute, however, that this evolutionary process is insufficient. A more urgent, focused effort is required.’ -- Frank N. von Hippel, Princeton University, USA ‘Just when the vision of a world at peace seems to have faded into obscurity, James Taylor Ranney comes along with an updated version of his classic study 'Peace through Law'. It could also be titled 'Peace is Possible' and will encourage visionaries and convert sceptics.’ – Peter Weiss, President Emeritus, International Association of Lawyers Against Nuclear Arms, USA ‘This book is refreshing and a badly needed antidote at a time when hawks with sinister faces tell us that peace and arms control can be threatened by a convention that commits states to non-use and non-possession of nuclear weapons. When the world is spending nearly two trillion dollars a year on means and measures to blow us up, Professor Ranney has the temerity to argue for the ending of wars. He does not grope for a world federation or general and complete disarmament, but rather for reliance on law and moderate and time honoured means such as mediation, arbitration and UN forces.’ -- Hans Blix, Third Director-General Emeritus of the International Atomic Energy Agency ‘In this lively, creative challenge to war - and especially nuclear war - James T. Ranney provides us with a path toward an international system governed by law rather than by violence. Championing arms reductions and dispute resolution, backed by effective enforcement, Ranney outlines a practical way to move toward a more peaceful world.’ -- Lawrence S. Wittner, author of 'Confronting the Bomb' ‘James Taylor Ranney's book straddles a number of subject areas in a creative and very readable fashion. It should be of interest to those interested in international relations, security studies, disarmament, peace studies, dispute resolution and, of course, international law and international organizations.’ -- Roger S. Clark, Rutgers University, USA 'On the basis of lifelong learning and deep ethical commitments, James Taylor Ranney has produced a comprehensive guide to how peace might be secured in our troubled times by a prudent reliance on the mechanisms, institutions, and values of law. Every engaged citizen has an obligation to read this book and ponder its central prescriptions for achieving a peaceful world.' -- Richard Falk, Professor Emeritus, Princeton University, USA ‘This new work merging history, political science, and jurisprudence is superbly clear, accessible and cogent not only for scholars and academics, but also for leaders and decision-makers in governmental and non-governmental organizations, and for all looking to become better informed on how to achieve and maintain peace through the global rule of law.’ -- Kevin Govern, Center for Ethics and the Rule of Law, USA ‘In World Peace Through Law James Taylor Ranney thoughtfully proposes concrete measures that could lead countries to abolish nuclear weapons, establish compulsory international dispute settlement mechanisms, and create effective enforcement mechanisms, including an international police force. Carefully researched, the book analyzes the intellectual roots of the world peace through law concept and explores the efforts of activists and politicians – including many U.S. Presidents, both Democratic and Republican – to realize its core features. The world greatly needs Ranney’s mix of idealism and pragmatism concerning how international law can further the essential goals of peace and security.’ -- John E. Noyes, Professor Emeritus, California Western School of Law, USA ‘In this stimulating, thought-provoking, thoroughly researched, and historically grounded volume, James Taylor Ranney brings together his reflections on world peace through the rule of law carefully and systematically developed over the course of several decades. His argument and seriousness of purpose are enhanced throughout by his candid discussions of the counter- positions of those who disagree with him and his honest acknowledgment that there are ‘many different paths to peace’. Ranney describes himself as a ‘pragmatic idealist’ who is realistic about the weaknesses of existing international law but at the same time optimistic about its future possibilities. Toward this end, he is owed a debt of gratitude for his vision of how the world might move toward future peace.’ -- Paul Gordon Lauren, University of Montana, USA ‘James Taylor Ranney’s book is an important contribution to raising awareness, deepening understanding, and inspiring a new generation of peace activists to campaign for lawful alternatives to organized armed violence around the globe.’ -- Mary Ellen O’Connell, University of Notre Dame, USA

As the U.S. government simultaneously threatens the International Criminal Court for even acting as if it might prosecute the United States for crimes in Afghanistan (a topic “investigated” for years now, while the ICC has yet to actually prosecute any non-African for anything) and (with little apparent cognitive dissonance) uses the implausible claim that the Syrian government might violate a law as an excuse to threaten to violate the supreme international law (that against war) by escalating the killing in Syria, the choice between war and law could not be more stark or critical.This question will be taken up by many talented speakers and workshop facilitators at #NoWar2018 later this month in Toronto. The conference will focus on replacing mass killing with nonviolent prevention and resolution of disputes. Participants can be expected to agree on that much and little else.Has law been used more for war or peace thus far? Has it done more harm or good? Should it be a significant focus of a peace movement? Should it focus on local laws, laws on the national level, on tweaking existing international institutions, on democratizing such institutions, on creating a new global federation or government, or on advancing particular disarmament and human rights treaties? No universal consensus, or anything even close to it, exists on any of these points.But consensus can and will be found, I believe, on particular projects (whether or not there is agreement as to their prioritization) and might be found — and would be very beneficial if found — on broader principles if thoroughly and openly discussed and considered.I’ve just read James’ Ranney’s book, World Peace Through Law. I find myself in as much disagreement as agreement with the details of it, but in far more agreement with it than with the status quo of Western common sense. I think it’s important that we think through some of the details, and press forward together as we’re able, whether or not we agree on everything.Ranney proposes a “moderate” vision that stays far short of the utopia of world federalism. Citing the recommendations, now centuries old, of Jeremy Bentham, Ranney writes that “the prospects of adoption of Bentham’s ‘world peace through law’ proposal are almost literally infinitely greater than world federalism being adopted any time soon.”But wasn’t arbitration, as proposed by Bentham, put into law over 100 years ago? Well, sort of. Here’s how Ranney addresses that in a list of past laws: “Second Hague Convention (outlaws war to collect debt; accepts ‘principle’ of compulsory arbitration, but without operative machinery).” In fact, the primary problem with the Second Hague Convention is not a lack of “machinery” but a lack of actually requiring anything. If one were to go through the text of this law and delete “use their best efforts to” and “as far as circumstances allow” and similar phrases, you’d have a law requiring that nations settle disputes nonviolently — a law that includes a fairly elaborate description of a resolution process.Ranney similarly, but with less basis, dismisses a law that was put in place 21 years later: “Kellogg-Briand Pact (normative principle outlawing war, but no enforcement mechanism).” However, the Kellogg-Briand Pact doesn’t include any of the hedge words found in the Second Hague Convention, or anything whatsoever about normative principles. It requires nonviolent dispute resolution, full stop. In fact the “normative principle outlawing war” — on an actual reading of the text of this law — is exactly the outlawing of war and nothing else. Nothing accurate is communicated by tacking on the words “normative principle.” The need for “machinery,” if not “enforcement” (a troubled term, as we’ll see in a minute) is a real need. But institutions of dispute resolution can be added to the ban on war that exists in the Kellogg-Briand Pact without imagining that the ban does not exist (whether or not one accepts the loopholes purportedly opened up by the UN Charter).Here are the three steps Ranney proposes to replace war with law:“(1) arms reductions—primarily the abolition of nuclear weapons, with necessarily concomitant reductions in conventional forces;”Agreed!“(2) a four-stage system of global alternative dispute resolution (ADR), utilizing both law and equity;” (“compulsory negotiation, compulsory mediation, compulsory arbitration, and compulsory adjudication by the World Court”)Agreed!“(3) adequate enforcement mechanisms, including a UN Peace Force.” (“not pacifism”)Here lies a major disagreement. A UN Peace Force, albeit not appropriately commanded by General George Orwell, exists and has been failing spectacularly since the launch of the war on Korea. Ranney quotes, apparently favorably, another author proposing that this global cop be armed with nuclear weapons. So, that insane idea is new. Ranney also favors the so-called “responsibility to protect” (R2P) the world from genocide through war (without, as is typical, ever clarifying what distinguishes one from the other). And despite the traditional lack of respect for a clear law like the Kellogg-Briand Pact, Ranney offers the traditional respect for R2P despite it not being any law at all: “great caution must be exercised to define very carefully when the new ‘responsibility to protect’ norm mandates intervention.” It mandates nothing whatsoever.Where does this belief in UN war-making for the cause of peace take us? Places like this (the belief in proper illegal occupations): “Despite the opposition of a recent American president, the use of UN troops to assist nation-building is something that obviously should have happened much earlier in Iraq and Afghanistan, now costing the U.S. trillions of dollars, thousands of lives, and gaining us nothing but the contempt of a large segment of the world.” The identification of “us” with the U.S. government is the deepest problem here. The notion that these genocidal wars imposed costs on the United States worth even mentioning in comparison with the costs to the wars’ principle victims is the ugliest problem here — uglier still in the context of a paper proposing to use more wars to “prevent genocide.”In fairness, Ranney favors a democratized United Nations, which would suggest that its use of its armies would look very different from how it does today. But how one squares that with occupying Iraq and Afghanistan I cannot say.Ranney’s support for a global improved-UN war machine runs into another problem raised in his book, I think. He believes World Federalism is so unpopular and implausible as not to be worth promoting any time soon. Yet I believe that handing over a monopoly on warmaking to a democratized United Nations is even more unpopular and implausible. And I agree with the popular sentiment this time. A comprehensive world government able to attempt to restrain the destruction of the environment by homo sapiens is badly needed, while strongly resisted. A war-fighting world institution out from under the thumb of the United States is even more strongly resisted, and a terrible idea.I think the logic of why it’s a terrible idea is fairly clear. If the use of deadly violence is needed to accomplish some good in the world that cannot be accomplished nonviolently (a very dubious claim, but a very widely and deeply believed one) then people will want some control over deadly violence, and national leaders will want some control over deadly violence. Even a democratized United Nations would move control further from the hands of parties that very much want it. If, on the other hand, we believe the data that nonviolence is more effective than violence, then no war machine is needed — which is of course the reason many of us see for trying to get rid of war.Ranney gives some examples of what he calls “strong” international law, such as the WTO, but they do not involve militarism. It’s unclear why a strong use of the laws against war need use war in violation of itself. Discussing enforcement of a nuclear weapons ban, Ranney writes: “a recalcitrant international outlier must be treated in basically the same manner as a domestic murderer.” Yes. Good. But that requires no armed “peace force.” Murderers are not typically dealt with by bombing everyone around them (the justifications for attacking Afghanistan in 2001 being an obvious and disastrous exception to that rule).Ranney also supports as an afterthought what I think ought to be central to this project. He writes: “Not that a UNPF [United Nations Peace Force] ought to be engaged in nothing but the application of force. On the contrary, there ought to be a ‘peace and reconciliation’ force that makes full use of conflict resolution and other nonviolent approaches, something like the existing Non-Violent Peaceforce. There would need to be diverse types of peace forces, appropriately staffed and trained to focus on diverse challenges.”But why make this superior approach a side note? And how does doing so differ from what we’ve got right now?Well, again, Ranney is proposing a democratized U.N. not dominated by five big war makers and weapons dealers. This is a major point of agreement. Whether you cling to violence or not, the first question is how to bring the United States and its allies into the world community of law — including how to democratize or replace the United Nations.But when envisioning a democratized world body, let’s not envision it using the tools of the Middle Ages, albeit with horrific technological advances. This parallels in my mind science fiction dramas in which humans have learned space travel but are extremely eager to initiate fist fights. That’s not a likely reality. Neither is a world in which the United States has abandoned rogue-nation status while the customary interaction between nations consists of bombing people.Getting to a world beyond war without using war to do so is not a matter of personal purity, but of maximizing the likelihood of success.

Despite having access to Lynda.com and Pluralsight.com which both have excellent Maya courses, having a book to highlight, mark the margins and return to as reference is very helpful. I am moving from 3DS Max to Maya 2018 and I wanted a book to gel the core concepts of modeling and shading, as well as animating, rigging, constraints... in Maya.Other than changes from 2016 to 2018 Maya, primarily a change in renderer (Mental Ray to Arnold), as well as MASH (unlikely to be covered in an intro book), this book applies well to Maya 2018.I found the book very practical, with interesting projects that could be completed in a reasonable amount of time, and reinforced key concepts. I would recommend this book for anyone new to Maya or moving from another 3D software package. I would have given this book a 5 star rating, but the picture quality in the text is poor. This is likely a combination of the printing, as well as image contrast and magnification. Some of the topics are complex (e.g. UV Mapping, rigging) and poor images make the topic more difficult to follow. There had at one time been videos online to demonstrate the content, but only a few can still be found on YouTube.My only other comment relates to efficiency. I wondered why the author created a "virtual studio" of planes for modeling, instead of using the built in image plane functionality. With the image planes you simply import an image for top, front, side views (and move them back -100 in their respective planes). Instead he has you build this from scratch. In the same vein, short-cut key creation could have been introduced for some common repetitive menu tasks such as center pivot, delete history, freeze transformations.In summary, this is a very well written book and I would highly recommend it, despite its being outdated for the 2016 version of Maya. As far as I can tell, it was updated for more than a decade of revisions since 2004, and its content appears to have greatly benefited from both revisions as well as the authors own extensive experience. It would be a shame if Sybex and Autodesk let this book fall into "out of print," even when online tutorials have largely taken over. If they do print a sequel in the future, I would recommend they improve the printed image quality (which by the way, was just as poor in the Kindle versions of their Mastering Maya book).

Great guide to Autodesk Maya! My only thought - a Glossary in back would be very handy. I'm new to 3D work, and would've liked a "quick reference" to the many unfamiliar terms and expressions.

Easy to find subjects and well organized. I recommend it. Despite I am a Maya LT 2018 user, until now, I found all I needed.

This book is the one for getting underway with learning Maya. This one will lead you to the more complete and thorough book Mastering Autodesk Mays 2016.

I'm learning Maya 2016 and 3D modeling and this is an essential resource for anyone else doing the same. Would definitely recommend Dariush's book!

Great book for someone just learning. A little harder to read for my daughter but together we are getting through it well.

Still in the middle of reading it. But It has a lot of good information

Good book to read.

Review

Few things are more important than the question of the assurance of our salvation. The dangers of false assurance are obvious, and Scripture warns us that the number of falsely assured in churches is legion. The tragedy of the unnecessarily troubled is that they never gain the footing that produces the fruit of the Spirit and compels great acts of obedience. Just as I would want my children to know for certain they are mine, God wants His children to know that they are His. Washer has provided a great and thorough resource for those wanting to plumb the depths of the question Am I really saved? and to teach it to others. This book is loaded with scriptural analysis and pastoral advice. It is a necessary book for the library of anyone entrusted with the care of souls. --J. D. Greear, PhD, author of Stop Asking Jesus into Your Heart: How to Know for Sure You Are Saved and Gospel: Recovering the Power that Made Christianity RevolutionaryPaul Washer has given us a tremendously helpful tool to seek solid assurance that we are saved from sin by God's grace. The Word of God is like a mirror for self-examination. The Epistle of First John particularly helps us examine ourselves to see if we are in the faith. Washer applies 1 John in a masterful way to this question, explaining a dozen marks of saving grace in the soul. At the same time, this book does not encourage us to rest on our past experiences but to press forward in spiritual growth in dependence upon the Spirit of Christ. Here is sweet help for God's children struggling to enjoy assurance of their Father's forgiveness and acceptance. And here is a sober warning to the self-deceived. May God use this book for His glory to the comfort of His people and the conversion of lost sinners. --Joel R. Beeke, president, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary, Grand Rapids, Michigan

From the Inside Flap

It should come as no surprise that misunderstandings about the gospel message and the nature of true conversion result in a problem with genuine assurance of salvation. A pseudo-gospel of "easy believism" has led many into careless presumption, and a poor understanding of salvation has abandoned tender consciences to near spiritual despair. In Gospel Assurance and Warnings, Paul Washer shines the light of gospel hope as he cautions against the dangers of making an empty profession of faith and carefully explains from Scripture the basis for establishing and maintaining a sound assurance of faith. Author Paul Washer ministered as a missionary in Peru for ten years, during which time he founded the HeartCry Missionary Society to support Peruvian church planters. Paul now serves as one of the laborers with the HeartCry Missionary Society (www.heartcrymissionary.com). He and his wife, Charo, have three children: Ian, Evan, and Rowan.

Paul Washer's most recent book Gospel Assurance and Warnings (the third book in his series Recovering the Gospel) is an incredible read. Never have I read a book that was more thoroughly Biblical and timely than this book! With a watered down gospel being taught throughout America there has been a rebirth of "gospel-centered" books over the last five years. Some have been well done, others have been just the same old moralism that American Christians have bought into for years. The gospel says (to borrow from Timothy Keller) you are more awful than you ever thought possible but you are more loved then you ever dreamed. The gospel makes us see how wretched we are, but God's love shows us how amazing He is and how awesome a gift His love is. Paul Washer's books are by far and away the best books on the topic of the gospel. Not a page goes by without a Bible verse and a gem of a thought by Washer. I started underlining all the amazing portions of this book and I found I was underlining everything. I will come back to this book over and over again as I teach those around me about the gospel, as I try to live out the gospel and finally as I lay down at night and the dark doubts attack me, I will rest in the truths that his books have brought to life that were always there in the Bible, but I was too immature and blind to see.This book is broken into two parts. Part one deals with how to know that we are saved, the assurance of our salvation. This is where Washer is really shows his skill as an expositor. He takes 1 John and walks us through what it means to be an assured follower of Christ. He blasts those who have "prayed a prayer" thus they are saved, as well as those who have "put their stamp of approval" on anyone who believes the magical prayer actually is the end of the gospel. He attacks the thought that the gospel is something for new Christians and that we move past it as we mature. Instead he points out that the gospel is all of what it means to be a Christian. He does all this while giving some great insight into 1 John. If I ever preach through 1 John I will surely use this book as a key part of my teaching. Part two deals with warnings for those who would change the gospel into easy believism. Washer walks through key portions on the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew's account of it) to explain Jesus' warnings for those who change His gospel. His chapter entitled ​Gospel Reductionism​ is the most powerful and moving chapter as he lays out how many in the church, yours truly included, have changed the gospel into something it is not. This part was also very well done, and I was moved by each chapter. Convicted about my attitude toward the gospel (both in the past and the present) and humbled by Washer's plain talk about the Bible and his encyclopedic knowledge of our Lord's Word.This book is a book I will reread over and over again. If you are passionate about following God's Word and setting out a correct picture of the gospel then you need to purchase this book. And while you are at it buy the other two books too.Five stars (only because I can't give it six)

4/5 - recommend to anyone who is questioning their assurance of salvation and anyone wanting to learn more about the gospelWhat I liked:Similar to the other two books in the series, starts every chapter with a verse and then discusses the Greek or Hebrew translation. He then exegetes the verse as it relates to assurance. The book is fully of Scripture, well over a thousand references. It is a solid theological exegesis of verses dealing with assurance.What I did not like:Having read this series of three books back to back, it became very repetitive. This book not only repeated ideas from the previous volumes, but also repeated the same idea within the book. This is to be expected with the way the book is set up — using a systematic exegesis of verses that builds on itself every chapter... but as a reader this becomes wearying. Each chapter is probably best used as a reference in the future and will be an amazing resource.

So timely for this nation and world as a watered down Gospel (which is no Gospel at all) is being increasingly propagated, and evangelized with. I love how clear Mr. Washer presents his case and the level of discernment he exercises when discussing a subject (false and true peofessions of faith ) that most do not like to deal with. I've experienced first hand many who have walked away from the Lord and have yet to return and this book gives me an even greater passion and desire to pursue them with great eagerness.

Paul Washer's knowledge of the Holy writ is second to none. He explains the Gospel and assurance of eternal life in a clear and understandable way which most Christians do not have the ability to do, or even understand. And, what is not talked about in modern times are the awful warnings that the Bible conveys to those who would treat the Gospel of Christ in a false and apostate manner. Mr. Washer pulls no punches about what the Bible says, and points out the awful warnings to those who would demean or take lightly the Gospel of Christ.

I would recommend this book,'Gospel Assurance & Warnings' to anyone who is serious about wanting to delve deeper into the true meaning of being a Christian. The 'Recovering the Gospel Series' are the best study books on true Christianity since C.S. Lewis and Charles Spurgeon. A sobering warning to the falsely assured, a sweet assurance to those of genuine conversion, and an enlightening guide to those who seek to understand why salvation is needed. Truly an inspirational work. Buy this one, you won't be sorry.

Thank God for Paul Washer! He doesn't hold back. I wish every man who stands in a pulpit would read some of Paul Washer's books!

Review

"Bad Blood is the real be-all end-all of Theranos information…. Bad Blood is wild, and more happens on one page than in many other entire books." —Margaret Lyons, The New York Times"You will not want to put this riveting, masterfully reported book down. No matter how bad you think the Theranos story was, you'll learn that the reality was actually far worse."—Bethany McLean, bestselling coauthor of The Smartest Guys in the Room and All the Devils Are Here"Chilling... Carreyrou tells [this story] virtually to perfection… Reads like a West Coast version of All the President's Men."—Roger Lowenstein, The New York Times Book Review"The definitive account of Theranos’s downfall, detailing its motley crew of executives, legal knife fights, dramatic PR stunts, and skullduggery... Offers a lot for foreign-policy wonks... While Bad Blood is worth reading for its own merits—it’s a stunning feat of journalism that reads like a thriller—it also says a lot about Washington’s facile relationship with Silicon Valley. Most D.C. power brokers know next to nothing about science or technology but increasingly view Silicon Valley tech as a deus ex machina for some of the world’s most complicated challenges. Bad Blood offers a sobering warning of where that type of thinking can lead."—Robbie Gramer, Foreign Policy"A great and at times almost unbelievable story of scandalous fraud, surveillance, and legal intimidation at the highest levels of American corporate power. . . . The story of Theranos may be the biggest case of corporate fraud since Enron. But it’s also the story of how a lot of powerful men were fooled by a remarkably brazen liar." —Yashar Ali, New York Magazine"Even if you didn’t follow the story of charismatic Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes (and the ensuing trainwreck) in the news, you will find yourself zipping through a book that proves once again that fact is stranger than fiction. A stunning look into a high-tech hoodwinking; like a high-speed car chase in a book."—The New York Post's "28 Most Unforgettable Books of 2018""In Bad Blood, acclaimed investigative journalist John Carreyrou, who broke the story in 2015, presents comprehensive evidence of the fraud perpetrated by Theranos chief executive Elizabeth Holmes... He unveils many dark secrets of Theranos that have not previously been laid bare…  The combination of these brave whistle-blowers, and a tenacious journalist who interviewed 150 people (including 60 former employees) makes for a veritable page-turner." —Eric Topol, Nature"Engrossing… Bad Blood boasts movie-scene detail… Theranos, Carreyrou writes, was a revolving door, as Holmes and Balwani fired anyone who voiced even tentative doubts… What’s frightening is how easy it is to imagine a different outcome, one in which the company’s blood-testing devices continued to proliferate. That the story played out as it did is a testament to the many individuals who spoke up, at great personal risk." —Jennifer Couzin-Frankel, Science"In exposing the fudged numbers, boardroom battles and sickening sums of money tossed Theranos’ way, Bad Blood succeeds in highlighting Silicon Valley’s paradoxical blind spot. Insular corporate culture and benevolent media coverage have allowed a monster to grow in the Valley—one that gambles not just with our smart phones or our democracy, but with people’s lives. Bad Blood reveals a crucial truth: outside observers must act as the eyes, the ears and, most importantly, the voice of Silicon Valley’s blind spot."—B. David Zarley, Paste Magazine's "16 Best Nonfiction Books of 2018""Carreyrou blends lucid descriptions of Theranos’s technology and its failures with a vivid portrait of its toxic culture and its supporters’ delusional boosterism. The result is a bracing cautionary tale about visionary entrepreneurship gone very wrong."—Publishers Weekly (Starred)"Crime thriller authors have nothing on Carreyrou's exquisite sense of suspenseful pacing and multifaceted character development in this riveting, read-in-one-sitting tour de force.... Carreyrou's commitment to unraveling Holmes' crimes was literally of life-saving value."—Booklist (Starred Review)"Eye-opening... A vivid, cinematic portrayal of serpentine Silicon Valley corruption... A deep investigative report on the sensationalistic downfall of multibillion-dollar Silicon Valley biotech startup Theranos. Basing his findings on hundreds of interviews with people inside and outside the company, two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning Wall Street Journal reporter Carreyrou rigorously examines the seamy details behind the demise of Theranos and its creator, Elizabeth Holmes… [Carreyrou] brilliantly captures the interpersonal melodrama, hidden agendas, gross misrepresentations, nepotism, and a host of delusions and lies that further fractured the company’s reputation and halted its rise."—Kirkus

This is an impeccably researched and referenced account of the Theranos saga. As a long-time observer and sometime competitor of Theranos I watched this tale unfold whilst working at a couple of established IVD companies. Everyone I knew who had ever developed an assay or instrument knew this was smoke and mirrors, impossibly too good to be true. What I never suspected was just how personally dishonest EH had been, and for how long the complex deception was maintained. Whilst I've met a few egregious individuals working for big companies, there are enough checks and balances (QA/RA, Med/Sci Affairs, CLSs and other professionals etc) in place to stop harmful devices getting out the door.The subject matter - developing devices and assays - is a complex dry topic, difficult to write engagingly about. But JC does a workmanlike job and I read this in one go after its midnight Kindle release. My only nit to pick is the poor editing: there are so many uses of '....named....' as in 'an engineer named John Smith' or 'a restaurant named Joe's Bar' that it got irritating. Find/replace 'named' with a comma would have worked fine in most cases. The text was also repetitive - eg '...an award named after Channing...' gets at least 2 mentions. But not enough to lose a star.Kudos to the good people at Theranos who had the courage to get the story out and for JCs persistence into a headwind of legalistic intimidation. I've heard Theranos is now a case-study for MBA students: this book should be required reading for anyone thinking about 'disrupting' the medical devices industry. There are lives at stake.

I started this book and could not put it down. It's a horrifying true story of a driven entrepreneur whose only overriding goal was to become insanely rich. And she would do anything, any unimagineable thing, to get there.Elizabeth Holmes leveraged her family's high profile connections to draw in early investors and supporters, who were not very inquisitive on details, nor very skeptical in nature. Drawing on the good name and reputation of these early supporters, she was able to build an impressive roster of other supporters with stellar reputations in tech and venture capital circles. From there, it was just a matter of stage managing the house of cards she was building.Holmes crafted a Potemkin village that had fooled investors, customers, and visiting dignitaries. Her product demonstrations were outright theater, staged managed illusions worthy of David Copperfield. Theranos employees in on the ruse were assured it was just temporary, until the actual product could be perfected and the results repeatable. That day would never come. Those on the outside who also worked in this field had well founded and grave doubts about how Theranos could be touting a product that seemingly defied both logic and physics. Their suspicions, proven to be correct, was that it was too good to be true.Without a trace of guilt or regret, she induced powerful tech workers to leave lucrative careers at other major tech firms, giving up millions in stock options, to come work for Theranos, surely knowing the whole thing would collapse one day. When skeptical board members asked to see data affirming the effectiveness of their product, Holmes would defer, saying those papers were in perpetual legal review. Some employees, when they were no longer useful to her, or deemed disloyal, were immediately and unceremoniously marched out.This is a real life thriller, the story of someone who is a true diabolical movie villain. Holmes is portrayed vividly as a paranoid sociopath who could also be disarming, charmingly manipulative, utterly ruthless and devoid of conscience. This is a tale of corporate greed and lack of regulatory oversight gone all awry.

It takes a mighty strong person and an incredible investigative journalist to take down a multibillion company lead by a CEO and her partner who are doing nothing but telling lies, mistreating their employees, taking millions of dollars under false pretenses from Fortune 500 businesses and wealthy investors, betraying their esteemed board members, and worst and most harmful of all, putting the lives of their end customers in serious jeopardy because the technology that they claim to have engineered does not exist nor has it been FDA approved or tested. This is John Carreyrou’s BAD BLOOD: SECRETS AND LIES IN A SILICON VALLEY STARTUP. Carreyrou went to monumental lengths over the course of several years, with the help of named and unnamed sources who worked or were connected to Theranos, the company, which claimed to have created a blood-testing device that with ‘one drop of blood’ could obtain hundreds of test results thus saving lives. Not only were their little machines ineffective but they were doing no such thing. Meaning, they could not provide accurate test results because they were not even obtaining them. Rather, they were using commercial analyzers in their place. At the helm was Theranos founder and CEO Elizabeth Holmes, a Stanford drop-out who had a brilliant idea, but it was never brought to fruition. She simply leads people to believe it was with her charm. A lot of people.It is staggering how many people she swayed. We’re not just talking about a co-worker or two but former heads of state, who later joined her board, people who amassed fortunes in the billions who were willing to loan Theranos money, major corporations including Walgreens and Safeway who wanted to get in on the ground floor, and many more. It is equally astonishing how so many smart, successful people were not taken aback by her freakish obsession with imitating Steve Jobs. Perhaps, they chalked this up to her eccentricity.It took courage for people to come forward. They were threatened with lawsuits that could bankrupt them ten times over, by one of the leading and most intimidating litigators in the country. Carreyrou, a Pulitzer Prize winning investigative journalist, who has been with The Wall Street Journal for almost 10 years, had the support of his editor, newspaper, and its attorneys. He never thought for a minute to back down. The result – a series of articles in the paper that exposed Theranos and Holmes for the fraud they committed.It is dumbfounding to read BAD BLOOD and to think that Holmes and her number two in command, Sunny Balwani, also her romantic partner, which was kept secret, got away with so much for so long, and even when finally confronted and their hands were forced, they still would not admit fault. Is Holmes a criminal? Is she delusional?What I do know is that you will not be able to put this book down.

Review

Praise for Passion in the Pulpit Passion in the Pulpit by Jerry Vines and Adam Dooley is a must-read for every person who stands to preach. The man of God is called and charged with one responsibility—preach the Word. Proclaiming the Word is more than dispensing truth. If that is the only goal, the result will be dry preaching that produces dry Christians. The goal should always be passionate proclamation that produces passionate followers of Jesus. Masterfully, Vines and Dooley provide the proclaimer with understanding and techniques to deliver the passion and emotion of the given text in order to connect with the heart of the listener. I enthusiastically commend this book to all practitioners of preaching.Frank CoxSenior Pastor North Metro Baptist Church, Lawrenceville, GA            It would be difficult to find two more competent preachers of God’s Word than Jerry Vines and Adam Dooley. These two remarkable preachers have combined their efforts to capture the essence of biblical passion. This moves us beyond the exuberance of human energy and enthusiasm to allowing the passion and pathos of the biblical passage itself to be expressed through the preaching of God’s Word. In these pages, the preacher is relieved of having to focus on his own abilities of communication to revealing the passion of the text itself. Here is a guide to linking the emotion of the Holy Spirit in the inspired text itself to the proclamation of the Word of God. You will sail in uncharted waters in these pages and will sharpen your ability to genuinely touch the emotions of the hearers with the emotion and passion of Scripture.Jimmy DraperPresident Emeritus, LifeWayAdam Dooley and Jerry Vines have taken their combined preaching experience and years of study to produce a resource that walks the preacher through a process for identifying, crafting, and proclaiming the emotion of a text. This book is a significant contribution to the field of preaching. It should be required reading for every pastor. Robby Gallaty Pastor of Long Hollow Baptist ChurchAuthor of Preaching for the Rest of UsTo say that my life and ministry has been impacted by the leadership and example of Jerry Vines would be a major understatement. I have been truly blessed and encouraged through Vines’s many decades of faithful service to Christ, His church, and the pulpit. Vines’s new book, along with the encouraging contribution of Adam Dooley, will be one that will challenge you to a more committed and passionate pulpit ministry. I encourage you to read it, digest it, ponder it, and pray over it as it helps you continue to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ throughout your ministry. Thank you Vines and Dooley for pouring your heart into this book, Passion in the Pulpit, to help preachers like me do a better job of pointing people to Jesus.Jonathan FalwellPastor, Thomas Road Baptist Church, Lynchburg, VirginiaI am so thankful for a book on preaching that recognizes the role of emotion in preparing and delivering biblical sermons. The concept of pathos drives this work . . . the genuine pathos of the biblical text mixing with the pathos of the Bible preacher to produce biblical, actionable pathos in the hearers. Vines and Dooley believe that the Bible is meant to stir the soul. Their instruction will help preachers develop soul-stirring messages. Jerry Vines and Adam Dooley make quite a team and Passion in the Pulpit is quite a book.Jimmy ScrogginsLead Pastor, Family Church, West Palm Beach, FloridaPreaching with courageous conviction and compelling passion is essential for effective communication. Jerry Vines and Adam Dooley offer the tools and techniques to deliver the message with life changing impact. I highly recommend this book to all preachers and teachers of the Word of God.  Jack GrahamPastor, Prestonwood Baptist ChurchPassion in the Pulpit is a must-read for anyone who longs to be a more dynamic communicator of God’s Word. Jerry Vines and Adam Dooley, two of the most effective expositors of Scripture in the world today, combine their years of experience to offer practical advice to every pastor. I highly recommend this book to any preacher or teacher of God’s Word.Robert JeffressPastor, First Baptist Church, DallasTeacher, Pathway to VictoryIn Passion in the Pulpit, a modern-day Moses and Joshua (Jerry Vines and Adam Dooley) teach us to convey faithfully the passionate convictions of the inspired authors of Scripture. This well-written manual distills exegetical insights and decades of personal experience. It is the mentoring most pastors are longing for in an engaging book! I’m delighted to enthusiastically commend this book to both new and seasoned preachers wishing to grow in effective exposition.Robert L. PlummerChairman, New Testament Department; professor of New Testament InterpretationThe Southern Baptist Theological SeminaryIt was my privilege to be a seminary classmate with Jerry Vines. I’ve followed his ministry for more than half a century and heard him preach on many occasions in different venues. In every setting he preached with the passion he writes about. My heart and mind were always stirred as he expounded the truth he lived. Vines and Dooley have joined their preaching skills, honed in the study and the marketplace of the people they have pastored, to assist us in our calling to feed the flock. Their words will bring insight, information, and inspiration and feed the desire of all who desire to grow in communicating the Word that transforms lives for now and forever.Jim HenryPastor Emeritus, First Baptist Church, Orlando, FloridaIf there was ever a book to speak about passionately, it is the Bible. In Passion in the Pulpit, Jerry Vines and Adam Dooley write to this end not only with the expertise of a scholar but with the heart of a pastor and preacher. You will find it a valuable resource to add to your library!Nick FloydLead Teaching Pastor, Staff Leader, Cross Church, Northwest ArkansasWhenever Jerry Vines speaks about preaching, I listen. For decades Vines has been one of if not the premier homiletician in the Southern Baptist Convention. In his latest work, Passion in the Pulpit, Vines joins Adam Dooley to remind us that preachers must not only be true to the content of the biblical text, but also faithful to the various emotions emitted from the text. In the words of Vines, a faithful preacher must “convey the emotions of the text rather than [his] personal mood.” Vines and Dooley have given Bible preachers everywhere a masterpiece for our weekly hermeneutical and homiletical work.Steve GainesSenior Pastor, Bellevue Baptist Church, Memphis, TNPresident of the Southern Baptist ConventionThe great revivalist Lyman Beecher was once a visitor in a church worship service and the man sitting next to him asked, “What would you do if the man next to you in church went to sleep?” Beecher replied, “I would send an usher to go wake up the preacher.” Passion in the Pulpit by Jerry Vines and Adam Dooley is a wake-up call to preachers. The vast majority of churches are hemorrhaging in attendance in these days. Why? They are not merely interested in just hearing another sermon; they want to see the fire of God fall from heaven in our preaching.This third volume in Vines’s Pulpit trilogy is poignant, practical, and potent, because although it deals with strategies, genres, concepts, and methods, it primarily breathes life into preaching. The responsibility of preaching is a superhuman task, which cannot be accomplished without supernatural power. Vines and Dooley contend that those who carefully exegete their text and depend upon divine unction are able to engage in commendable “heart preaching.”J. Gerald HarrisSenior Pastor First Baptist Church of Blue RidgeEditor of The Christian IndexPreaching properly attempted is by definition passionate. Yet much of the passion is manipulation and not a little preaching is passionless. What a happiness to see the subject skillfully and passionately addressed by two of the finest practitioners, Jerry Vines and Adam Dooley. Follow this book and you will awaken a preacher, a congregation, and a ministry!Paige PattersonSouthwestern Seminary, Fort Worth, TexasIf you knew Jerry Vines or Adam Dooley, you’d know there’s nothing in either one of them that gives you the impression their personality is gregarious, outgoing, or even extroverted. But when they get behind the pulpit and open up God’s Word, get ready. Something happens . . . something supernatural. It’s as if they no longer exist. Something takes over those personalities. That something is Someone. And that Someone is the Holy Spirit that gives them passion. What is that something? It is the Word of God. As you read Passion in the Pulpit, you’ll see it’s not the story of two preachers. It’s the story of how the Word of God preached in the power of God to the people of God in the house of God evokes pathos, emotion, and conviction. This book is worth the read. They are worth the endorsement.Ken WhittenSenior Pastor, Idlewild Baptist ChurchWhen the Word of God grips the preacher, then the passion about this Word will explode through his preaching! This does not start in the pulpit, but in the life and study of the preacher. This is why every preacher needs to read this powerful book by Jerry Vines and Adam Dooley. It will challenge them to have a much greater passion in the pulpit! Ronnie FloydSenior Pastor, Cross ChurchPresident, National Day of PrayerPast President, Southern Baptist Convention

From the Back Cover

Emotions are the Missing Exegetical LinkWhen we preach, the question is not if people will feel, but what they will feel. If we preach the emotions that are at the heart of the passage, then our congregations will feel what God intended. If we preach the emotions of our personality’s choosing—or with no emotions at all—we misrepresent the text. Discover the importance of biblical pathos and how to faithfully proclaim it through your preaching. In Passion in the Pulpit you’ll also learn how to: recognize and appreciate the gift of Scripture’s emotional coloringdiscern the biblical pathos using reliable exegetical stepsmake your sermons faithfully emotive while avoiding manipulationdetermine the appropriate limitations of emotional appeal use verbal, vocal, and visual techniques to convey the biblical emotional intent of the passageAnd morePreaching what God says without also respecting how He said it is not an option. No matter the cost, we must preach with the passion God desires.

This is a very good preaching tool for my library. Every minister should get this book to enhance your ministry.

Those who have studied preaching in seminary, and even some who have not, may be familiar with the concept that logos,ethos, and pathos are the essential parts of preaching. Much attention is given to logos, the content of epreaching, and attention is given to ethos, the character of the preacher, but pathos, the persuasive nature of preaching is often neglected or even ridiculed. This title helps serve as a corrective to that neglect and disdain. In this book author Adam Dooley provides an exploration of each topic in the various chapters with Jerry Vines providing illustration of how the principles at hand are applied in the pulpit. One chapter that particularly stood out to me was the second chapter, which serves as a warning against personality driven preaching. I do have to disagree with what was said in chapter 4 when it states, "Though the Law is not binding as a moral standard for believers, it remains a relevant hermeneutical key that helps us understand God and ourselves better (68)." Overall though this book is a helpful resource giving practical tips on how to be a better and more convincing preacher, pointing to the importance of heart felt preaching in persuading others of the truth of the Word.I would commend this book as a valuable resource for any preacher. It offers practical insight and application in an area of preaching that is often ignored by preachers and writers.Disclosure: I received a review copy of the book from the publisher for the purpose of reviewing it. The opinions I have expressed are my own, and I was not required to write a positive review.

“If the great things of the Christian faith are rightly understood, they will affect the heart.” When Jonathan Edwards penned these words in 1746, he did not intend to spark controversy. His only desire was to be faithful to the Scriptures. The intersection of the head and the heart is a subject that is of paramount importance. A Christian can stuff his mind with theological gold and remain a religious pauper. According to Edwards, there is no dichotomy between the head and the heart. If the heart isn’t transformed by truth, all is lost.Jerry Vines and Adam Dooley address the important intersection between the head and the heart in their most recent book. Passion in the Pulpit: How to Exegete the Emotion of Scripture argues that preachers must convey pathos in their preaching. The authors provide a helpful definition of biblical persuasion, namely, “To seek the desired, voluntary response revealed within the Bible’s logos and pathos in an effort to seek the glory of God and the spiritual benefit of an audience.”The authors strenuously maintain their thesis throughout the book and successfully drive home the point that biblical preacher must, by definition, be passionate preaching. Indeed, as they write, “Capturing the meaning of Scripture without also communicating its heart falls short of the divine mandate to preach the Word.”Various angles are explored throughout the book which alert readers to the task at hand. Everything from the need for passion, exegetical tools, and persuasive techniques are offered with the ultimate aim of passionately and powerful proclaiming the written Word of God.I received this book free from the publisher. I was not required to write a positive review.

**Disclosure**This book was sent to me free of charge for my honest review from the publisher. All opinions are my own.About the Book:Biblical exegesis doesn’t stop with the words alone. Faithful preachers exegete the emotion of the text as well.It’s easy to let our own personalities dictate the emotional dimension of our sermons, but the best preachers mirror the Bible’s emotive intent in their sermons. In Passion in the Pulpit, Jerry Vines and Adam Dooley will teach you how to exegete not just the verbal content of Scripture, but its emotional appeal as well. They show you the role the Bible’s emotional intent should play in each stage of sermon prep, and:Offer exegetical steps to discern the biblical pathos Teach you how to avoid manipulation while making your sermons emotional Help you determine the appropriate limitations of emotional appeal Give you verbal, vocal, and visual techniques to help convey the biblical emotional intent in your sermonsWhen we elevate the Bible’s emotional intent above our own, we preach truth rather than personality.My Review: If you want to amp up your speaking engagements and sermons many times we have to reach out to a fellow minister to do just that. My husband ministers every month to a group of people most often than not that are forgotten. He speaks to a group of people that are retired and living in a retirement community. He along with a few others volunteer here each month. These people are so encouraging and excited to see him as well as other fellow ministers. The look forward to that interaction each week. And I have to admit my husband gains some from being around these individuals that are much more mature than we are. I love hearing their stories and many times we cry tears with them as they share their innermost thoughts, feelings, and prayers. Such strong people yet so weak and they may have forgotten many things but God is not one of them. The mark of a good sermon my husband relates is that the scripture is exegeted correctly and appropriately for the congregation. Exegeting scripture is where you have basically tore it down and expanded on it and from what I hear, it isn't easy. But lucky for us there are many ministers and pastors out there willing to share their wisdom to help us grow in this area. Passion in the Pulpit is a great book to help explain many of the notions that we as ministers would like to do but don't really have the knowledge of knowing exactly how to follow through. Passion in the Pulpit is divided into three parts: understanding the challenge, discerning the emotive design of a text, and employing persuasive techniques. Each of these points are strong and the authors are able to carefully guide us through this tricky get gainful process. This book is very helpful and is interesting yet encouraging to those of this that still have a hard time in this area.

Review

“The takeaway of Debaise’s careful analysis is a robust and persuasive understanding of the ontology of affect, and affect as valuation–the feeling of the world in its allness and being moved by it according to what is of interest and importance to the societies we are and are becoming.” (M. Gail Hamner affecognitive 2018-01-19)"As Debaise puts it: 'What is needed is a philosophy that, in its very form, its ambition and its manners of relating to things, can grant due importance to the deeply plural experience of nature.' This is the philosophy to which Debaise has opened us in his reading of Whitehead." (Patricia Ticineto Clough Critical Inquiry 2018-04-01)

Review

"Nature as Event is a remarkable rendering of Whitehead's most difficult points of philosophy. With his slow, light, and extremely clever touch, Didier Debaise has a unique ability to make speculative philosophy understandable to everybody, artists as well as social scientists and humanists. One will never find another book that makes the notion of the 'eternal object' commonsensical. A great read." (Bruno Latour, author of An Inquiry into Modes of Existence: An Anthropology of the Moderns)“This remarkable book may serve as an introduction to Whitehead's thought due to its brevity, beautiful clarity, and quality of its argumentation. But it is much more than that: it is a very original and thought-provoking contribution to philosophy and humanities that is motivated by the concerns of our time. Didier Debaise renders the thorniest questions intelligible and characterizes concepts in such a way that readers feel each concept intensifying an aspect of their experience. A deeply rewarding book.” (Isabelle Stengers, author of In Catastrophic Times: Resisting the Coming Barbarism)

During the 80s and 90s, Nature was declared at its death, end, or just troubled by various academics writing from privileged positions. Subsequently, the mashing of nature and culture, or the deconstructions of its alleged dualism, or the monadic collapsing of them turned out to be a growth industry, particularly in the humanities but also elsewhere in academia. As an aside, I wonder how many 'ordinary' everyday people think Nature is dead.......troubled, yes, certainly! Ended? Hmmm! Debaise sees otherwise, particular through his account of bifurcation that interrogates the operative basis and function of dualist and monist conceptions of nature.Why then a 'turn' in 'new' theory to 'non' anthropocentrism, 'non/more-than human' and renewed speculations about ontology, realism, and materialism? What the hell is going on in postmodern 'intellectual' work and associated 'movements' in and of (western) thought?Debaise's very readable, short book is well worth reading as a 'thought' responsive to some of these academic and existential dilemmas, (and others such as the uncritical acceptance in the mainly North American academy of the increasingly populist 'posthuman'), as is his related speculative empiricism (2017). The Debaise text is relatively easy reading and interprets Whitehead in an accessible and interesting manner. His views on nature, as event and plural, warrant attention and debate, as does his account of the subjectivity of feelings as a quality of the intensification of experience...hence his somewhat pragmatic speculative empiricism.More might have been made of Dewey but, with a careful interpretation and helpful pedagogy of the real, the ordinary everyday person on the street would also find "Nature as event' as an al(luring) possibility.

Great book!!!!

Review

"This entry in the Dressing a Nation: The History of U.S. Fashion series covers a time of rapid change in the American fashion industry, from an era of frugal thriftiness necessary in the face of the Great Depression and WWII to one informed by a brand-new youth culture, movie stars, and post-war leisure time. The book has five sections: Women's Everyday wear, Women's Haute Couture, Men's Clothing, Hairstyles and Accessories, and finally, Designers, Photographers, and Models. There's plenty for fashion-savvy readers to digest. This is the time frame in which famous names―Yves Saint Laurent, Givenchy, Lacoste―are sure to ring out to young fashionistas. The book's sharp, bold, rather tidy design features eye-catching art from the period. Zoot suits, poodle skirts, and bikinis as well as pervasive use of the zipper are explored as turning points in American ready-to-wear clothing. This engaging title is topped off by a lengthy bibliography and further reading section for true fashion devotees." --Booklist (Journal)"This series documents women's and men's clothing, hairstyles and accessories, designers, and inventions of the different periods. Well-researched texts provide clear explanations of the ways important historical events, people, and technology of the times influenced how clothes were designed, made, purchased, and worn. Numerous archival photos and entertaining sidebars contribute to a lively read." --The Horn Book Guide (Journal)"This series, a history of fashion in the United States, is more than a simple account of fashion during particular eras. A variety of interesting aspects are examined, such as the ever-present influence of Europe on American tastes and how wars affected fashions. Techniques and technology used in making clothes and accessories are included. Fashions for women, men, and children are all part of the story, as are hairstyles and facial hair. In addition to the vivid photographs and illustrations, primary sources such as journal entries, letters, and catalog pages are found. The volumes are interesting and easy to read, although the subject matter might limit use." --Library Media Connection (Journal)"These well-written and appealing books place clothing and fashion, from underwear to headgear, in the larger context of American history, emphasizing that for most of our past, clothing signified status and reinforced societal roles, especially for women. The series includes information about the clothing of many groups, notably Native Americans, African Americans, soldiers, and children. It also discusses regional and ethnic differences in dress and traces how clothing styles and forms reflected changes in society. Large, attractive period illustrations and color and archival photos and boxed quotes enhance the texts. This series is certain to draw both researchers and browsers." --School Library Journal, Series Made Simple (Journal)

This has got to be the world's most expensive book. It comes in a mere 64 pages, the writing is on a par with secondary school level composition, and the author has produced such other expert tomes as "Italy in Pictures" and "Does a ten Gallon Hat Really Hold Ten Gallons". Even the photos are hackneyed. Anyone really wishing to understand anything about American clothing is advised to go eklsewhere. Anywhere else. A total rip-off

Excellent

When this book popped up on NetGalley from Lerner, I was all over it. 40s fashion is usually how I like to dress when dressing fancy, simply because the styles were geared towards a more curvaceous body (which is what I have). Plus they had some awesome hair. So now there's a book that highlights all of the great moments in war time fashion? Yes, please!This isn't a book with a plot; it's just something that's nice and informational about the clothing and general style of the era. From the hair to the clothes, accessories and shoes, for both men and women, LITTLE BLACK DRESS does a great job of highlighting the best parts of the fashion. Not to mention I got introduced to some awesome designers whose designs I might just have to take to a seamstress because, well, I want some of these dresses, quite frankly.I only had a couple of complaints. One, I wish Behnke would have mentioned Betty Page, whose style had a huge influence on the culture of the time, along with the hair style known as the victory roll. It was a very popular wartime style that takes some practice to manage. I didn't see either of these mentioned and I felt the book could have even better if they'd been added.Also, someone got a little liberal with some of the photos and using Photoshop. I liked most of the photography. Looking at old pictures always draws me in but some of them were wildly colored with backgrounds that weren't flattering to the part of the image that they were trying to make pop. I think a more subtle background with a simple 3D effect in the foreground would have been more than enough to highlight the fashion in those particular photos. (This is in the NetGalley digital advanced copy edition.)Other than that, loved it and I want to buy it for my collection. It's a good book to have for reference (for costumes, for instance, or, if you're like me, for actual dressing) and it's just something nice to look at. It'd make a great coffee table book. One thing LITTLE BLACK DRESS really proved is that the styles that emerged in these three decades really made a lasting impression on culture as a whole. There's a level of class there that isn't seen too much today and now so many designs fall back on those older ones for inspiration, although they take it to levels now that demean the original class of the style. In a world where trash is class and the less you wear means the sexier you are, it's wonderful seeing images in a time where glamour really shown. Where sex appeal wasn't just in the type of body you had but in how you held yourself, in a time where clothes were made for bodies, not the other way around.Seriously, I loved this book and if you're into the same kind of fashion I am, you'll love it too.

Perhaps you've looked through a photo album and chuckled a bit when you saw how your parents or grandparents dressed many years ago. Fashion is constantly evolving from decade to decade and even year to year trends can be radically different. Looking back into the fashion history of the United States can be a fascinating venture and statement on the times. The 1920s, dubbed the "Jazz Age and Roaring Twenties," was an exciting time to be alive. Daring styles reflected this era, but the flamboyant fashions would quickly be a thing of the past when the New York stock market crashed in 1929. Fashions quickly became more simplistic and practical.In the 1930s frugal was in and was reflected not only in the styles, but also the fabric. Man-made fabrics such as rayon started to come on the scene as women had less expendable income. Women began to sew and knit more of their clothing and companies such as Sears "provided an innovative money-saving solution by selling semi-made clothes." People began to become more aware of fashion when magazines such as Vogue began to let them know what the "in" fashions were and what everyone was wearing. In this book you'll swing thorough the decades getting a glimpse of everything from leisure wear to the infamous bikini that emerged in the 1950s.Haute couture of "high dressmaking" or "high sewing," burst on the scene in the 1930s and was heavily influenced by the art of its day. Elsa Schiaparelli, Babrielle "Coco" Chanel, and Christian Dior,Yves Saint Laurent, Clare Potter, and Elizabeth Hawes were just a few of the designers who influenced American fashion. Fabric rationing, prior to and during wartime, had been lifted and allowed people to become more expressive with their choice of clothing. You'll read many interesting ways that haute couture filtered down to styles that your grandparents may have worn, including the wedding dress that Grandma may have said yes to. Similarly to your look at women's everyday wear and haute couture, this book will take you on a fascinating whirlwind tour of men's clothing, hairstyles and accessories (hats, jewelry, scarves, footwear, etc.), and the designers, photographers, and models who made fashion come alive. Do you know what twin sets and ducktails are? You will by the time you finish this book!This whirlwind tour of the fashions of yesteryear will fascinate readers of all ages. Simply browsing the book and seeing men showing off their zoot suits and seeing a Horst P. Horst photograph told me that I'd be in for a real treat. The primary audience, the teen or young adult, will also enjoy reading about the evolution of American fashion. There are many opportunities for students to use this book as a stepping stone for a school report. This work is very well written and researched and fun to read. The text is generously illustrated with impressive photographs and has numerous informative sidebars. One, for example, discusses the impact of Television on fashion and in particular the impact stars such as Lucille Ball and Donna Reed had on hairstyles. Historical vignettes about everyone from film stars to British royalty are woven seamlessly into these pages. In the back of the book is an index, a glossary, a timeline (1931 to 1959) source notes, a selected bibliography, and additional recommended book, film, and website resources to explore. Free educational resources can be downloaded on the publisher's website.This book courtesy of the publisher.

(thank you netgalley :D)I KNEW I'd love this book, but I LOVED THIS BOOK.I'm a total historical fashion junkie. I devour old vogue patterns, and have gotten light-headed over finding boxes of old patterns at garage sales.There was nothing to not like about this book except that I wanted MORE.The pics were fun, the info was good, but not overwhelming. It covered everything from hairstyles, to everyday clothes, to the really, really, fun stuff.I love how the information on the clothing was integrated into the history of the time periods, and it NEVER felt like a history book. I loved the organization, and the highlighted quotes.WAY. FUN. BOOK.Also - I'm buying this for my neice, and even though I've read it, I'm going to buy one for me, because I must HOLD it.
