​A collection of cult sensation Jeremy Robert Johnson's best and most bizarre short fiction, including a brand-new, never-before-published novella. For more than a decade, Jeremy Robert Johnson has been bubbling under the surface of both literary and genre fiction. His short stories present a brilliantly dark and audaciously weird realm where cosmic nightmares collide with all-too-human characters and apocalypses of all shapes and sizes loom ominously. In 'Persistence Hunting,' a lonely distance runner is seduced into a brutal life of crime with an ever-narrowing path for escape. In 'When Susurrus Stirs,' an unlucky pacifist must stop a horrifying parasite from turning his body into a sentient hive. Running through all of Johnson's work is a hallucinatory vision and deeply-felt empathy, earning the author a reputation as one of today's most daring and thrilling writers. Featuring the best of his previously independently-published short fiction, as well as an exclusive, never-before-published novella 'The Sleep of Judges?' where the aftermath of a home burglary becomes a mind-bending suburban nightmare, Entropy in Bloom is a perfect compendium for avid fans and an ideal entry point for adventurous readers seeking the humor, heartbreak, and terror of JRJ's strange new worlds.

The winner of multiple Eisner Awards, author Taiyo Matsumoto explores the relationships between a manga editor, manga creators, art, and the rhythm of life these days.After 30 years as a manga editor, Kazuo Shiozawa suddenly quits. Although he feels early retirement is the only way to atone for his failures as an editor, the manga world isn’t done with him. Shiozawa forges ahead with an independently published manga project. But the manga creators around him are crumbling into chaos—Chosaku drinks himself into ever less productivity over worries about his career and family, a longtime creator can’t discern the difference between fiction and fantasy, and Aoki disappears rather than face the deadlines for his new hit series. Sometimes, the simple pleasure of an apple is worth more than all the fame and toil of making manga.

Created as a reference guide to encompass various minority health issues for the four major US ethnic minority groups (Native Americans/Alaska Natives, African Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Asian/Pacific Islander Americans) in one volume. It is a selective resource for the data and research that currently exists; selected materials cover the last 25 years, and are copyrighted 1970-1995. The format focus of Ethnic Minority Health is monographs. However, approximately forty percent of the volume contains government documents, conference proceedings, independently published reports, and dedicated journal issues. Other formats included are directories, bibliographies, serials, multimedia and an extensive listing of dissertations and masters theses. All entries for monographs, government documents and proceedings entries are annotated and contain full bibliographic data. The book features nine quick access sections that are divided first by material format or broad subject area and then by ethnic group. Author and extensive subject indexes allow accurate and comprehensive concept searching. Recommended for all medical libraries, health care providers, community health care workers, public health care workers, policy makers and social workers.
