Before gentrification, New York City was a gritty and inspiring place. In its midst was Arlene Gottfried, whose eye for the sublime caught it all. Sometimes Overwhelming is a manic yet romantic ode to the people of New York City in the 1970s and 80s. From Coney Island to a Hasid at Riis Beachs nude bay to the disco nights of sexual abandon and the children in the original Village Halloween parade, this book is a delightfully lighthearted look at the most outrageous people you might ever see.

Here is a concise overview of the historical development and judicial interpretation of the First Amendment religion clauses. It begins with a survey of the history of American religious liberty, goes on to present the views of the Founding Fathers, and then considers the core value of religious liberty and the constitutional purposes that implement that value. the book ends on a practical note by applying these principles to questions of equal access, religious symbolism in public life, and the task of defining religion for constitutional purposes. As the authors note in their introduction, "the historical principles that animate the religion clauses are more than an abstract intellectual exercise. . . . They provide an essential context for guiding the resolution of modern religious liberty issues."

Arnaldo Momigliano was one of the foremost classical historiographers of the twentieth century. This collection of twenty-one carefully selected essays is remarkable both in the depth of its scholarship and the breadth of its subjects. Moving with ease across the centuries, Momigliano supplements powerful readings of writers in the Greek, Jewish, and Roman traditions, such as Tacitus and Polybius, with writings that focus on later historians, such as Vico and Croce. Charmingly written and concise, these pieces range from review essays reprinted from the New York Review of Books to treatises on the nature of historical scholarship. Essays in Ancient and Modern Historiography is a brilliant reminder of Momigliano’s profound knowledge of classical civilization and his gift for deftly handling prose. With a new Foreword by Anthony Grafton, this volume is essential reading for any student of classics or historiography.

Tracing the growth of ancient biography from the fifth century to the first century B.C., Arnaldo Momigliano asks fruitful questions about the origins and development of Greek biography. By clarifying the social and intellectual implications of the fact that the Greeks kept biography and autobiography distinct from historiography, he contributes to an understanding of a basic dichotomy in the Western tradition of historical writing. The Development of Greek Biography is fully annotated, and includes a bibliography designed to serve as an introduction to the study of biography in general. This classic study is now reissued with the addition of Momigliano's essay "Second Thoughts on Greek Biography" (1971).

This volume updates psychoanalytic thinking about the psychology of women. As Harold P. Blum states in his introduction, it surveys the many relevant theoretical changes that have occurred in the past two decades, and as Phyllis Tyson indicates, it addresses a wide variety of psychological concerns, not simply those of female sexuality. This extraordinary compilation of original articles will be of compelling interest to all psychoanalysts and members of allied professions. It is a giant step forward, not to be missed.

The humorous reminiscenses of Arnold Fine (1924-2014), a Jewish Press columnist and editor who worked at the Orthodox weekly for more than 50 years. His column, 'I Remember When,' consisting of recollections of Jewish life in the 1930 and ?40s, was a mainstay of the paper, and his writings were anthologized in other books and periodicals, including the 'Chicken Soup for the Soul' series and Readers Digest. Fine also served as an editor at the paper for many years, eventually rising to become senior editor. Before joining the Jewish Press, he served in both the U.S. Army and U.S. Navy, and worked as a press photographer in New York City. Fine also worked as a special education teacher in the New York City school system.

Volume 2 wrestles with two questions that remain timely in the present: (1) whether self psychology can be integrated with classical psychoanalysis (H. Curtis, M. Basch), and (2) whether self psychology actually differs in practice from classical psychoanalysis (R. Wallerstein, E. Wolf). Discussions by E. Markson & P. Thomson, R. Stolorow, P. Tolpin, and J. Levy bring different perspectives to bear on these knotty issues. The implications of self psychology for our understanding of infant and adolescent development are explored, respectively, by M. Tolpin and M. & E. Shane. Additional contributions span the topics of supervision (J. Sloane), somatization (W. Rickles), and suicide (D. Reiser), and include theoretical papers by B. Brandchaft, R. Stolorow, H. Muslin, and D. Detrick.
