- “the most original and creative literature textbook I have ever seen.”
- “I am most impressed by the promise of meeting students’ needs in their struggle to move from summarizing to discussing style and technique.”
- “The tone is quite down-to-earth and engaging. I believe students will appreciate that.”
- “Step by step instructions” are by far the best rubric I have ever seen for writing a critical essay -- brilliant, succinct, essential, and clear.”
- “The selections in this section are extremely well chosen for college freshmen. I believe these selections will capture their interest, expand their vocabulary and jump-start their imagination.”
- “. . . a brilliant, innovative work that truly makes a textual apparatus an all-in-one pedagogical asset. The text’s focus on writing as a discovery tool is its greatest quality, followed by the diversity and quantity of readings.”
- “I have never seen this level of instructional specificity in an introductory text before.”

Paradigm Developmental Model of Treatment
A Clinical Guide for Counselors Working with Substance Abusers and The Chemically Dependent
By Georgi DiStefano, LCSW and Melinda Hohman, Ph.D.
The Paradigm Developmental Model of Treatment incorporates themes from the twelve-steps of Alcoholics Anonymous. These themes provide clinical goals for the counselor to guide clients in the treatment process.
For those clients that attend AA/NA, this model will strengthen their program. For those clients that cannot relate to the spiritual aspects of the Twelve-Steps it provides an alternative perspective that is cognitive-behavioral in nature.
This model utilizes motivational interviewing techniques and cognitive-behavioral interventions. Both MI and CBT are considered evidenced-based therapies and are utilized widely for chemical dependency treatment.
This model provides an assessment scale that pinpoints where a client is in regards to their thinking about their alcohol and drug use and which interventions will be most useful and appropriate given this information. This model is very useful for supervisors to collaborate and provide guidance to their counseling staff.
It is very exciting to share this new model with our professional community. It has been featured in both Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly Journal and Counselor Magazine.

Contazar/Dedmontonians
Short Stores (Spanish-English)
By José M. Alonso-Sed
A married couple, addicted to reading Julio Cortázar's short stories, is devastated to hear about the author's passing. They attempt to replace the loss by writing their own short stories in the manner of the late author. But soon, stylistic differences arise between the emerging writers, leading to their separation. The man continues writing on his own, "producing" the entire collection of short stories published in CONTAZAR/DEDMONTONIANS.
In this bilingual collection, the author plays with ‑among other things– the role of the narrator as an extension of the author himself, and with the concept of creating a fictionalized world inside a work of fiction, thus producing a Chinese-box effect for the reader to enjoy and ponder.
“Fuga” (“Escape” in its English version) received a prize in the literary competition for short stories "La Voz y La Pluma," sponsored by the newspaper LA VOZ at the Literary Festival "Metrópolis Azul," Montreal, Canadá, Spring, 2005.

It should be used with an intermediate reader of a textbook that emphasizes communications and/or competency.

The History of the Comic Strip (Part II)
The Nineteenth Century
Paperback edition
By David Kunzle
This is the second volume of Kunzle's rather ambitious plan to provide a history of the comic strip. It covers the flowering of the comic strip in 19th-century Europe, from the pioneers (Topffer, Hogarth, Cruikshank) to the later, popular caricaturists (Cham, Busch, Petit) and also details the magazines they appeared in. Kunzle's aim is to present this artistic form to an audience unfamiliar with it.
