Although neural network models have had a dramatic impact on the
cognitive and brain sciences, social psychology has remained
largely unaffected by this intellectual explosion. The first to
apply neural network models to social phenomena, this book includes
chapters by nearly all of the individuals currently working in this
area. Bringing these various approaches together in one place, it
allows readers to appreciate the breadth of these approaches, as
well as the theoretical commonality of many of these models.
The characters—young and old, queer and straight, contemporary and historical—who inhabit Lynn C. Miller’s stories often find themselves in defining moments and crisis situations. As they search through the archives of memory, truth, and experience, they seek to understand not only the past and present but themselves. Stretching the definition of “archive,” Miller builds interconnected webs that surprise, much like the seemingly random papers collected in a box of materials. Fraught relationships, mistaken identities, mysterious disappearances, and the search for love play out in these stories. Friendships are celebrated, ex-husbands cross the line, and Gertrude Stein attempts to write her memoir. An unusual collection that proves greater than the sum of its parts, The Lost Archive will haunt readers with the intensity of its vision.

In" Death of a Department Chair," protagonist Miriam Held recounts the events of the previous fall when she was suspected of killing Isabel Vittorio, the chair of her department and her former lover. The controversial and contrary Vittorio was, at the time of her death, attempting to block the hire of a brilliant African American female professor. Already under siege for her attempts to increase diversity on campus, Miriam is forced to defend her reputation and her life. As she searches for the truth, Miriam amasses evidence that leaves few friends and colleagues free from suspicion. Both a classic whodunit and a witty satire, "Death of a Department Chair" dramatizes how communities can create the very climate of mistrust and paranoia that victimizes them.
