One of America's greatest writers, William Faulkner wrote fiction that combined spellbinding Southern storytelling with modernist formal experimentation to shape an enduring body of work. In his fictional Yoknapatawpha County--based on the region around his hometown of Oxford, Mississippi--he created an entire world peopled with unforgettable characters linked into an intricate historical and social web. An introduction to the Nobel-Prize-winning author's life and work, this book devotes opening chapters to his biography and literary heritage and subsequent chapters to each of his major works. The analytical chapters start with his most accessible book, The Unvanquished, a Civil-War-era account of a boy's coming of age. The following chapters orient readers to elements of plot, character, and theme in Faulkner's masterpieces: The Sound and the Fury, As I Lay Dying, Light in August, and Absalom, Absalom! Also analyzed and discussed are some of Faulkner's most often anthologized short stories, including "A Rose For Emily" and "Barn Burning," and the longer stories "The Bear," "Spotted Horses," and "The Old Man" that were incorporated in the novels Go Down, Moses, The Hamlet, and If I Forget Thee, Jerusalem. Clear, insightful analyses of the elements of Faulkner's fiction are supplemented with alternative readings from a variety of critical approaches including gender, rhetorical, performance, and cultural studies perspectives.

John R. Commons is one of the few reformers of the past century whose major works are still actively read, whose ideas are still debated, and whose principles are still applied to the analysis of contemporary problems. His life spanned the years of America's "Great Transformation," from a nation of shopkeepers, farmers, and small towns to one of giant corporations, landless laborers, and crowded cities. He became involved in almost every aspect of America's response to the damaging side effects of that transformation. A Worker's Economist begins with John Commons' childhood and education and continues through his life as a scholar, teacher, administrator, and reformer. Commons' list of accomplishments are great in number and overall effect. He worked on the staff of the first government commission to investigate the economic and social consequences of corporate mergers. He served as a public representative on the commission that investigated industrial violence and workplace relations. He was a participant observer in America's largest and most historic mineworkers' strike. He wrote and administered the nation's first constitutional worker compensation law. He developed principles of social reform and public administration that his students carried into the design and administration of the Social Security system as well as Lyndon B. Johnson's War on Poverty. John Dennis Chasse reviews Commons' major works, describes the people with whom he worked, and follows the fortunes of the unions that were intrinsic to his vision of "collective democracy." As a final testament to Commons' importance, Chasse considers his legacy as it endures in the work of his students and beyond.

Developed in the 1980s from the E30 saloon, the BMW M3 model drew on BMW’s involvement in motor sport and, with its widened body and chassis, upgraded engine delivering 200BHP and other improvements, it soon dominated touring car races. With the M3 now in its sixth iteration and more powerful than ever, with a six-cylinder engine delivering 450BHP, BMW M3 expert John Denny describes all the developments that have kept this exceptional car at the head of the pack. The book also charts the growing popularity of the car worldwide and the right-hand-drive versions produced for the UK market. This was a car that was just as much at home on the racetrack as it was on a family trip to the supermarket. Drawing on his unrivalled experience of owning and restoring BMW M3 cars, John Denny has written an indispensable book for both classic and contemporary BMW M3 owners and all those interested in these superlative cars.
