Coal River
Michael Shnayerson
Farrar, Straus and Giroux
“Michael Shnayerson has ventured into one of the roughest and remotest parts of America and emerged with a brilliant and devastating work on the greed of the coal mining industry. I found myself hoping that certain people named in this book will read it and experience that sick fear of knowing their game is about to come to an end. Indeed, that is one of the very satisfying things about this book: As horrifying as the story is, there is the real and very beautiful possibility that justice will prevail in the end.”—

Beggars and Choosers
How the Politics of Choice Shapes Adoption, Abortion, and Welfare in the United States
Rickie Solinger
Hill and Wang
"With passion and verve, Rickie Solinger defends motherhood, no matter a woman's class, race, or marital status, against those who would limit feminism to the marketplace of choice. Her brilliant interweaving of the histories of adoption, abortion, and welfare since the 1960s is must reading for untangling today's politics of family, poverty, and women's rights."—
