A journalist’s provocative and spellbinding account of her eighteen months spent disguised as a man. Norah Vincent became an instant media sensation with the publication of Self-Made Man, her take on just how hard it is to be a man, even in a man’s world. Following in the tradition of John Howard Griffin (Black Like Me), Vincent spent a year and a half disguised as her male alter ego, Ned, exploring what men are like when women aren’t around. As Ned, she joined a bowling team, took a high-octane sales job, went on dates with women (and men), visited strip clubs, and even managed to infiltrate a monastery and a men’s therapy group. At once thought-provoking and pure fun to read, Self-Made Man is a sympathetic and thrilling tour de force of immersion journalism.

As a perceptive and outstanding assessment, Communicating Power and Gender examines the relationships between gender and power and how they are linked to and transformed by the communication process. Within this discussion a host of correlations emerge, crossing social, cultural, historical, political, and racial spheres. In order to anchor their discussion Borisoff and Chesebro define the terms gender, power, and communication, which provides an operational platform from which to view fundamental issues such as the effects of stereotyping and verbal and nonverbal communication by gender. The authors also consider four contexts that shape and influence gender socialization and sex-role constructions: mediated communication and gender roles in various media systems, early socialization in the home, the educational landscape, and women and men in the workplace. Our environment continually generates new kinds of questions and associations. The more we interact with others the more we realize that our relationships are not fixedthey exist in a state of flux. Communicating Power and Gender explores not only how gender-based issues affect us daily, but also how gender-based communication can be more sensitively, usefully, and effectively employed.

Six years following the Eternal War's caustic end, Laria finds itself with the four races unified under the banner of a new High King. Seeking to prove the Doream legend's authenticity once and for all, the search for the holy Adelpha Epsilian becomes an obsession. Faced with scattered demons, opposing religious cults, and the ever-present, ever-threatening Sions, Doream's decrees affect the entire world as another global war blazes on the horizon. Although not along the lines of ethnicity, the new conflict is founded on religious tension between Doream's young faith and the Sion's old dogmas. To make matters worse, Doream's wife carries the heir to the throne when a strange illness befalls her. Many, including the king's closest allies, wonder if he can balance his personal trials as well as the needs of his people as Laria collapses. All secrets are revealed as the High King confronts his greatest fear; doubt.
