| "The Sports Gene : Talent, Practice and the Truth About Success" |
| "In this ground-breaking and entertaining exploration of athletic success award-winning writer David Epstein gets to the heart of the great nature vs nurture debate and explodes myths about how and why humans excel Along the way Epstein exposes the flaws in the so-called 10000-hour rule that states that rigorous practice from a young age is the only route to success He shows why some skills that we imagine are innate are not - like the bullet-fast reactions of a baseball player - and why other characteristics that we assume are entirely voluntary like the motivation to practice might in fact have important genetic components Throughout The Sports Gene forces us to rethink the very nature of success"

| "George Herbert Mead is widely recognized as one of the most brilliantly original American pragmatists Although he had a profound influence on the development of social philosophy he published no books in his lifetime This makes the lectures collected in Mind Self and Society all the more remarkable as they offer a rare synthesis of his ideas This collection gets to the heart of Mead's meditations on social psychology and social philosophy Its penetrating conversational tone transports the reader directly into Mead's classroom as he teases out the genesis of the self and the nature of the mind The book captures his wry humor and shrewd reasoning showing a man comfortable quoting Aristotle alongside Alice in Wonderland Included in this edition are an insightful foreword from leading Mead scholar Hans Joas a revealing set of textual notes by Daniel R Huebner that detail the text's origins and a comprehensive bibliography of Mead's other published writings While Mead's lectures inspired countless students much of his brilliance has been lost to time This definitive edition ensures that Mead's ideas will carry on inspiring a new generation of thinkers"

| "The Limits of Critique" |
| "Why must critics unmask and demystify literary works? Why do they believe that language is always withholding some truth that the critic's task is to reveal the unsaid or repressed? In this book Rita Felski examines critique the dominant form of interpretation in literary studies and situates it as but one method among many a method with strong allure-but also definite limits Felski argues that critique is a sensibility best captured by Paul Ricoeur's phrase the hermeneutics of suspicion She shows how this suspicion toward texts forecloses many potential readings while providing no guarantee of rigorous or radical thought Instead she suggests literary scholars should try what she calls postcritical reading rather than looking behind a text for hidden causes and motives literary scholars should place themselves in front of it and reflect on what it suggests and makes possible By bringing critique down to earth and exploring new modes of interpretation The Limits of Critique offers a fresh approach to the relationship between artistic works and the social world"

| "Moral Politics : How Liberals and Conservatives Think, Third Edition" |
| "When Moral Politics was first published two decades ago it redefined how Americans think and talk about politics through the lens of cognitive political psychology Today George Lakoff's classic text has become all the more relevant as liberals and conservatives have come to hold even more vigorously opposed views of the world with the underlying assumptions of their respective worldviews at the level of basic morality Even more so than when Lakoff wrote liberals and conservatives simply have very different deeply held beliefs about what is right and wrong Lakoff reveals radically different but remarkably consistent conceptions of morality on both the left and right Moral worldviews like most deep ways of understanding the world are unconscious part of our hard-wired brain circuitry When confronted with facts that don't fit our moral worldview our brains work automatically and unconsciously to ignore or reject these facts and it takes extraordinary openness and awareness of this phenomenon to pay critical attention to the vast number of facts we are presented with each day For this new edition Lakoff has added a new preface and afterword extending his observations to major ideological conflicts since the book's original publication from the Affordable Care Act to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan the recent financial crisis and the effects of global warming One might have hoped such massive changes would bring people together but the reverse has actually happened; the divide between liberals and conservatives has become stronger and more virulent To have any hope of bringing mutual respect to the current social and political divide we need to clearly understand the problem and make it part of our contemporary public discourse Moral Politics offers a much-needed wake-up call to both the left and the right"

| "Thinking Through Methods : A Social Science Primer" |
| "Sociological research is hard enough already you don't need to make it even harder by smashing about like a bull in a china shop not knowing what you're doing or where you're heading Or so says John Levi Martin in this witty insightful and desperately needed primer on how to practice rigorous social science Thinking Through Methods focuses on the practical decisions that you will need to make as a researcher where the data you are working with comes from and how that data relates to all the possible data you could have gathered This is a user's guide to sociological research designed to be used at both the undergraduate and graduate level Rather than offer mechanical rules and applications Martin chooses instead to team up with the reader to think through and with methods He acknowledges that we are human beings and thus prone to the same cognitive limitations and distortions found in subjects and proposes ways to compensate for these limitations Martin also forcefully argues for principled symmetry contending that bad ethics makes for bad research and vice versa Thinking Through Methods is a landmark work one that students will turn to again and again throughout the course of their sociological research"

| "Leo Strauss on Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra" |
| "Although Leo Strauss published little on Nietzsche his lectures and correspondence demonstrate a deep critical engagement with Nietzsche's thought One of the richest contributions is a seminar on Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra taught in 1959 during Strauss's tenure at the University of Chicago In the lectures Strauss draws important parallels between Nietzsche's most important project and his own ongoing efforts to restore classical political philosophy With Leo Strauss on Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra preeminent Strauss scholar Richard L Velkley presents Strauss's lectures on Zarathustra with superb annotations that bring context and clarity to the critical role played by Nietzsche in shaping Strauss's thought In addition to the broad relationship between Nietzsche and political philosophy Strauss adeptly guides readers through Heidegger's confrontations with Nietzsche laying out Heidegger's critique of Nietzsche's will to power while also showing how Heidegger can be read as a foil for his own reading of Nietzsche The lectures also shed light on the relationship between Heidegger and Strauss as both philosophers saw Nietzsche as a central figure for understanding the crisis of philosophy and Western civilization Strauss's reading of Nietzsche is one of the important--yet little appreciated--philosophical inquiries of the past century both an original interpretation of Nietzsche's thought and a deep engagement with the core problems that modernity posed for political philosophy It will be welcomed by anyone interested in the work of either philosopher"

| "Powers of Distinction : On Religion and Modernity" |
| "In this major new work philosopher of religion Nancy Levene examines the elemental character of modernity and religion Deep in their operating system she argues are dualisms of opposition and identity that lead to social and personal dead ends But alongside them we also find a hidden dualism that of mutual relation which it is our task to cultivate Levene uncovers this lost distinction between dualistic systems In one system the perennial dualism of the one and the many the terms are either opposed or identified In the other system the terms are held in a relation of mutuality In readings from Abraham to the present Levene recovers this distinction showing how it liberates thinking and politics and renews modernity's most innovative ideals- democracy criticism interpretation From Abraham we get the biblical call to give up tribal belonging for covenantal relation Modernity which Levene argues encompasses Abraham's call bequeaths the political work of constituting collectives with a critique of all that divides self from other us from them Drawing on a long tradition of thinkers and scholars even as she breaks new ground Levene offers here nothing less than a new way of understanding modernity as an ethical claim about our world a philosophy of the powers of distinction to include rather than to divide"
