Available again, a major monograph on the legendary US typographer and graphic designer Herb Lubalin. One of the original Mad Men, Herb Lubalin (1918–1981) was a giant of American design and typography whose passion for rebellion and innovation made him one of the most successful art directors of the 20th century and beyond. He is perhaps most recognized for his typeface Avant Garde, but his reach extended far and wide. A constant boundary breaker on both a visual and social level, he was a co-creator of the culture-shocking magazines Avant-Garde, Eros and Fact, and founder of the equally influential U&lc. Herb Lubalin: American Graphic Designer features hundreds of examples of Lubalin’s work and previously unseen photographs of him at work and play. Divided into sections on his work in advertising, typography and editorial, it also features an extensive biographical text by Adrian Shaughnessy that includes interviews with George Lois, Seymour Chwast, Alan Peckolick, Carl Fischer, Steven Heller and members of the Lubalin family. Produced in association with the Herb Lubalin Study Center at Cooper Union, New York, and with the active cooperation of the Lubalin family, this monograph is the definitive work on one of America’s most influential designers.

Although largely ignored by historians of both baseball in general and the Negro leagues in particular, Latinos have been a significant presence in organized baseball from the beginning. In this benchmark study on Latinos and professional baseball from the 1880s to the present, Adrian Burgos tells a compelling story of the men who negotiated the color line at every turn - passing as 'Spanish' in the major leagues or seeking respect and acceptance in the Negro leagues. Burgos draws on archival materials from the U.S., Cuba, and Puerto Rico, as well as Spanish- and English-language publications and interviews with Negro league and major league players. He demonstrates how the manipulation of racial distinctions that allowed management to recruit and sign Latino players provided a template for Brooklyn Dodgers' general manager Branch Rickey when he initiated the dismantling of the color line by signing Jackie Robinson in 1947. Burgos' extensive examination of Latino participation before and after Robinson's debut documents the ways in which inclusion did not signify equality and shows how notions of racialized difference have persisted for darker-skinned Latinos like Orestes ('Minnie') Minoso, Roberto Clemente, and Sammy Sosa.
Behind the Scenes presents the story of Dublin's famous Abbey Theatre and its major creative personalities: W. B. Yeats, Annie Horniman, J. M. Synge, and Lady Gregory. Part history, part sociology, part biography, Frazier's work recreates the forces that shaped the Abbey stage, forces that involved the spirited participation of actors, audiences, press, and financiers as well as of the famous poet-playwright who was its co-director. His book unfolds an entertaining and suspenseful tale, centered on the undeniably autocratic personality of W.B. Yeats and with the political struggles of Ireland as a backdrop.

Caste and Kinship in Central India: A Village and Its Region offers an in-depth exploration of the intricate social dynamics within a multi-caste village and its surrounding region. The book delves into the pivotal role of caste as the foundational axis of political, economic, and kinship structures in Indian village life. It meticulously unpacks the layered relationships between caste, subcaste, and kinship, emphasizing the local and regional frameworks within which these social units operate. The analysis reveals three levels of caste membership—the kindred of cooperation, kindred of recognition, and broader subcaste—all of which influence individuals' social roles and interactions. Through this nuanced lens, the study sheds light on the mechanisms of social control, marriage alliances, and group interactions, providing a comprehensive account of how caste functions both within and beyond the village boundaries. This scholarly work also addresses the broader implications of caste in regional and inter-village contexts, challenging the conventional notion of the village as a self-contained entity. By distinguishing between intra-caste (subcaste-based) and inter-caste dynamics, the book highlights how individuals navigate their dual identities as members of both caste and subcaste, influenced by patrilineal and exogamous practices. The study’s innovative approach bridges local and regional analyses, offering a fresh perspective on caste systems as both static and adaptive entities within India's socio-cultural landscape. This book is an essential resource for scholars of anthropology, sociology, and South Asian studies seeking a deeper understanding of caste’s multifaceted role in shaping community life.
