Review The Preacher / PublishAmerica:

The story follows Marshall Bennett’s rise to CEO of a large denomination. Competing in a sighted world is a challenge for blind Marshall. As he climbs the ladder of denominational bureaucracy, he is astonished at the chasm between the lifestyle of church officials and ordinary laymen. His idea of serving others sharply contrasts with that of his peers. His belief system fails to give him balance between work and family. After officialdom, Marshall and his wife find fulfillment in pastoring a rural church.

Review Reading the Rhetoric of Revenge from Jacobean Drama to Milton (Mellen Studies in Literature. Jacobean Drama, V. 105) / Edwin Mellen Press:

In this study of the seventeenth century's fascination with revenge, Dr. Campbell followed a pathway of evidence that led him to certain conclusions not foreseen at the outset. In embarking on the distinct genre of revenge tragedy in the Jacobean period, Dr. Campbell did not anticipate that he would end up focusing so much on the role of the malcontent or on Milton's role in Writing what amounts to a poetic revenge tragedy in Paradise Lost.

Review Black and White Media: Black Images in Popular Film and Television / Polity Press:

This book offers a wide-ranging and accessible account of the complex relations between black communities and popular media like film and television. These relations have often been discussed in terms of stereotype and misrepresentation. However Ross argues that, while it is still true that many black characters in film and TV are drawn from a narrow repertoire of images, the success of some independent black film makers has meant that mainstream audiences are now exposed to a more diverse range of black-originated work. It is no longer satisfactory to read black media subjects as the product of the white imagination: one must also consider the contribution that black media professionals have made, and continue to make, to a dynamic black media culture. Organized as a textbook, Black and White Media provides an historically informed and up-to-date analysis of the ways in which black communities have been portrayed in film and television, from early Hollywood films like Uncle Tom's Cabin to the recent work of black film makers like Spike Lee. Ross examines popular TV programming, including series like The Cosby Show, and discusses the role of minority broadcasting and multicultural programmes. Throughout the text, examples are drawn from both American and British film and television production.
