SUMMARY:James Shulman discusses his new book The Synthetic University
DESCRIPTION:US colleges and universities have long been the envy of the world. Institutional autonomy has fostered creativity among faculty\, students\, and staff. But this autonomy means that colleges tend to create their own solutions for every need. As a result\, higher education suffers from costly redundancies that drive tuitions ever upward\, putting higher education\, essential to the fabric of the country\, at risk. Instead of wishful thinking about collaboration or miraculous subsidies\, The Synthetic University describes intermediary organizations that can provide innovative\, cost-effective solutions. \nOffering answers to challenges jointly faced by thousands of institutions\, James Shulman lays out a compelling new vision of how to reduce spending while enabling schools to maintain their particular contributions. He explains why colleges are so resistant to change and presents illuminating case studies of mission-driven and market-supported entrepreneurial organizations–such as the student tracking infrastructure of the National Student Clearinghouse or the ambitious effort of classics professors to create a shared transinstitutional department. Mixing theory with lessons drawn from his own experience\, he demonstrates how to finance and implement the organizations that can synthesize much-needed solutions.

SUMMARY:Peter Pennoyer & Anne Walker launch their new book City / Country
DESCRIPTION:From the preeminent classical architecture firm in the US\, the latest apartments\, townhouses\, and country houses\, with interiors by leading designers \nWhether a brand–new country estate\, a renovation of a triplex penthouse apartment\, or a merging of two townhouses into one\, each of the 20 projects in this sumptuously illustrated volume bears the hallmarks of Peter Pennoyer Architects’ work: skillful adaptation of the principles of classical architecture\, sophisticated use of details and materials\, and insistence on meticulous craftsmanship\, resulting in a balance between comfort\, beauty\, and luxury. The firm’s architects worked with exceptional interior designers\, including Katie Ridder\, Miles Redd\, Steven Gambrel\, and Jacques Grange\, to create these residences\, and though all are grounded in the classical tradition\, each is singularly tailored to its location and the individual taste of the client. With an authoritative text by architectural historian Anne Walker and hundreds of specially commissioned photographs\, site plans\, and floor plans\, Peter Pennoyer Architects: City and Country showcases residential architecture at its finest.

SUMMARY:Melissa Newman presents her book Head Over Heels
DESCRIPTION:Their love story is the stuff of Hollywood legend. Joanne Woodward and Paul Newman became not only movie stars and stage actors\, but also artistic collaborators\, political activists\, and philanthropists whose legacies are expansive and enduringly modern. \nThese striking images–many rare and some never before published–are accompanied by snapshots\, letters\, handwritten notes\, and family treasures. Together they beautifully illuminate the connection between two complex\, passionate artists who opened their hearts and minds to each other for over half a century. This book is an homage to the possibility and power of love.
