Safe, Legal, and Unavailable?: Abortion Politics in the United States
The Supreme Court's 1973 decision in Roe v. Wade legalized abortion Yet while the medical procedure is legal--and safe--many women across the country do not have the ability to exercise this reproductive right. Melody Rose examines abortion as a social regulatory policy, thoughtfully and thoroughly chronicling the erosion of abortion rights and availability since Roe. Paying respect to all views of this controversial topic in her engaging new book, Rose explores the success of the right-to-life movement in accumulating local and national policies that restrict access to abortion while enhancing fetal protections. In addition to a basic and brief primer on the practice and history of abortion, Rose considers the roles played by the courts, political parties, and interest groups in constructing barriers to abortion. With an examination of public opinion poll data and a look at both state and national statutory prohibitions on abortion, Rose also shows how powerful language wars have resulted in material policy alterations. Chapter-opening vignettes and vivid storytelling make this brief and topical supplement a good read that is sure to get your students thinking critically about this highly charged topic. As well, the author has augmented chapters with further reading suggestions and provocative discussion questions that invite insightful discussion and analysis..

Lost Classics: Writers on Books Loved and Lost, Overlooked, Under-read, Unavailable, Stolen, Extinct, or Otherwise Out of Commission
Writers, it's often said, are readers first and writers second. Frequently, it is the indelible mark left by some book that inspires a person to commit to the writing life. Mining that vein, the editors of Brick, a Canadian literary journal, asked their contributors "to tell us the story of a book loved and lost." The "Lost Classics" issue has been expanded into a book, in which 73 authors--Margaret Atwood, Russell Banks, John Irving, Philip Levine, Anchee Min, and Michael Ondaatje among them--write about the books they've loved and lost. These are books worth stealing, books remembered in the twilight that precedes sleep, books that, for these authors, provided "that moment when a reader seems to have found the perfect mate." Though many of the books extolled here are acknowledged classics, many are not. Helen Garner cherishes a childhood book that "except for members of my immediate family, no Australian I've mentioned the book to ... has had any knowledge of it whatsoever." Sarah Sheard writes lovingly of Down and Out in the Woods: An Airman's Guide to Survival in the Bush, "a manual of food, shelter and first aid [that] was the companion text of my childhood summers." Michael Turner reminisces about a book he never actually read, and Erin Mouré describes a book about the history of fishes that "no one I knew was ever interested in reading." Anne Holzman laments her inability to find a copy of a book for lefty activists called Reweaving the Web of Life (hint to Holzman: check online--used copies are readily available). And Nancy Huston introduces Kressmann Taylor's Address Unknown, "a perfectly astonishing [and prescient] little book." A kind of Rand McNally for the literary explorer, each chapter a hand-forged map leading down bookish roads less traveled. --Jane Steinberg.

Still Single: Are You Making Yourself Unavailable When You Don't Want to Be? What to Do About It!
Author Casey Maxwell Clair lays it out in the introduction: she's not a therapist or counselor, just a woman who spent a few long years figuring things out. What she has found is that bad relationships vary in the details, but are all grounded in the concept of availability, or a lack thereof. Still Single explores a variety of reasons that may lie behind your unavailability. Clair isn't talking about not returning messages, but larger issues like dating married men, falling into teacher/pupil-type relationships, and tolerating substance abuse or infidelity. Each chapter contains personal stories for illustration and is fairly dense with information. Each ends with a short review and stands on its own without your having to read the entire book, but in general this is not a typical self-help book full of short lists and blocks of text. It reads more like a textbook, piling a tremendous amount of thought and exploration into each page. The book starts off by teaching you to identify your issues clearly, and then later chapters help you take decisive steps toward positive change--boosting self-esteem, ending negative relationships, and visualizing desired outcomes. If you haven't found what you're looking for in a dating manual or "follow the rules" approach, Clair's stern-but-friendly advice may allow you to discover what's keeping you from finding love, and thereby help you open yourself to it. --Jill Lightner.
