Ed Morley has a problem. He has five days to pass Amherst s comprehensive exam in Fine Arts or he won t graduate. Ed spent the past four years majoring in frat parties and rugby scrums, and after failing the comprehensive once, the odds are against him. However, taking on an obscure office known as the Class Choregus may propel him to a successful graduation. All he needs to do is lead the senior class in song during Commencement week simple enough if he could read a note of music or carry a tune As Ed navigates his personal comedy of errors, the specter of the Vietnam War looms over campus and a feeble anti-war protest is catalyzed into a fullscale rebellion. This is a tale of Eastern Seaboard colleges in the Sixties: fraternities, drinking, football, and scoring with Beta honeys a world which is interrupted by the seriousness of the war in Vietnam. Even an apathetic jock like Morley is forced to consider his dilemma ina larger societal context. If the boys of A Separate Peace and A Catcher in the Rye continued to college, this is the world they would have entered. The Class Choregus belongs among the fine comic college novels which reveal to us the flip side of our fantasies and dreams."

The relationship between the so called boundaryless careers and the occupational wellbeing is a fascinating issue. The themes of boundaryless and protean careers are noteworthy if we consider the challenges posed by a transition to more temporary employment arrangements from an industrial to a knowledge-based economy we are facing today. The book is enriched by empirical data analysis and case studies, which on one hand allow an in-depth view of the relation between new careers and wellbeing for specialists and, on the other one, become a fertile benchmark for professionals to look at. The novelty is represented by the effort of giving such construct an interdisciplinary approach, moving from law to organizational psychology, to economy, and to occupational health.

Theatre and Ghosts brings theatre and performance history into dialogue with the flourishing field of spectrality studies. Essays examine the histories and economies of the material operations of theatre, and the spectrality of performance and performer.

The author, Jane Morin, took the challenge of "A Journey of Hope" when she surrendered to the call of the wilderness journey. She was scheduled for a back operation when God clearly told her that she was going to be healed and not in need of surgery. By the following of the Holy spirit, she dropped everything and spent forty-days with God, inviting her friends and family to read her daily devotions, thoughts, diaries and poems and prayers inspired through the journey. These dark days birthed a global ministry that is still running strong to this day. Not only did she witness miracles in her own life, but her readership experienced miraculous healings and touches from God during this forty-day journey. If you are in need of physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual healing, then this book is for you
