MP-OKL Uni of Oklahoma How America Lost Its Mind
Book SynopsisAmericans are losing touch with reality. On virtually every issue, from climate change to immigration, tens of millions of Americans have opinions and beliefs wildly at odds with fact. In this book, Thomas Patterson explains the rise of a world of ""alternative facts"" and the slow-motion cultural and political calamity unfolding around us.Trade ReviewHow America Lost Its Mind is clearly a book Thomas E. Patterson wishes he did not have to write, but one that needed to be written. From time to time, scholarship should be alarmist. This book is the response of a reasoned, thinking person to a cultural and political calamity that he and many others saw unfolding in slow motion."" - Keith Gaddie, coauthor of The Rise and Fall of the Voting Rights Act

Ohio University Press Postcards from Stanland Journeys in Central Asia
Book SynopsisCentral Asia has long stood at the crossroads of history. It was the staging ground for the armies of the Mongol Empire, for the nineteenth-century struggle between the Russian and British empires, and for the NATO campaign in Afghanistan.Trade Review“An illuminating travelogue through Central Asia…. As a genial travel guide, Mould, an academic who doesn’t write like an academic, shows how one should resist the temptations to stereotype a culture too easily and understand it too quickly.” * Kirkus Reviews *“Mould is the ideal author to demystify the region and its people…. (An) accomplished tome that covers topics ranging from culture and politics to history, the environment, economics, and human rights. Of particular interest are sections that probe national identity; the literary landscape of Semay, Kyrgyzstan; and his overall impression of Central Asia. VERDICT: With a sense of humor, Mould’s memoir will…stimulate interest in this lesser-known region.” * Library Journal *“Books providing a stimulating, readable survey of the five countries that straddle Europe and Asia—Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan—targeted at those with little or no existing knowledge are few and far between. David H. Mould’s Postcards from Stanland promises to be a notable exception. …The western traveler to Central Asia is rare. One with the patience, enthusiasm and attention to detail to provide a considered and mostly vivid portrait…is rarer still. For that reason, Postcards from Stanland is a valuable contribution to the literature on the region.” * New Eastern Europe *“Postcards from Stanland is an ambitious undertaking, encompassing the history, politics, sociology and local color of a part of the world almost unknown and often misunderstood outside the territory. We would all do well to study and learn more from Mould’s observations.” * Book Reporter *“Postcards from Stanland is strongest when it discusses the subtleties of national and ethnic identity and the way the past affects the present.” * The Asian Review of Books *“An engagingly written exploration of a remote, multifaceted, strategically vital and intriguingly complex region of the world.”“The book’s mixture of personal anecdotes, political analysis, historical background, and cultural commentary makes it both an enjoyable and instructive read. … With its rich depiction of life in Central Asia and authoritative yet accessible style, Postcards deserves a wide audience, from high school students to secretaries of state.” * EurasiaNet *
