"A clear, concise, and informative history of the failure of the United States to establish a system of universal health care....well suited for graduate or undergraduate courses in the history of medicine and health or in public policy. It also deserves attention from scholars, policy makers, and anyone concerned with the future of health care in America." Margaret Marsh, Journal of American History

"...this is a timely book. Given that the current administration’s approach to geopolitics is strongly shaped by Mr. Trump’s attempt to render it all as a function of personal relationships, the requirement of the greatest degree of clarity in how military operations are conducted is of particular importance." Souciant reviews 'Why America Loses Wars'

“ 'Votive Body Parts in Greek and Roman Religion' is a profitable and enjoyable read accompanied with pertinent illustrations and practical tables. Anyone interested in how votive body parts have materialised in different regions at different times in antiquity, illustrated by fragments of histories within the ancient Greco-Roman world, will find the book fascinating." --Rezensionen

Scott Kellner's piece on the anti-Nazi diary that George H.W. Bush brought to light in today's Houston Chronicle: http://ow.ly/cgKv50uCJR3

"Dense with information and ideas and beautifully produced, this is a volume that readers will enjoy using and re-reading. There will be much to debate, but that is as it should be. What is most important is the fact that Harris has written a volume that engages with both lay readers and professional colleagues, offering an essay of interpretation that stimulates thought and compels one to rethink former positions." -Plekos

Thoughtful TLS review from Michele Pridmore-Brown of Trent Macnamara's book, Birth Control and American Modernity: A History of Popular Ideas: http://ow.ly/IpUI50uAS5j

"To call this monograph Richlin's magnum opus is probably understating the case. ...Richlin’s encyclopedic knowledge and command of the names, plots, and circumstances is evident on every page of this volume. Slave Theater is a definitive work of scholarship on enslaved and freed persons in and around Plautus’ theatre. More than that, it is required reading for anyone doing work in the field of comedy, the history of slavery, and the lives of the oppressed in ancient Rome. --BMCR http://ow.ly/zX6d50uAsae
