Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The professor and historian delivers a major critique of how political and financial attacks on the academy are undermining our system of higher education. Making a provocative foray into the public debates over higher education, acclaimed historian Ellen Schrecker argues that the American university is under attack from two fronts. On the one hand, outside pressure groups have staged massive challenges to academic freedom, beginning in the 1960s with attacks on faculty who opposed the Vietnam War, and resurfacing more recently with well-funded campaigns against Middle Eastern Studies scholars. Connecting these dots, Schrecker reveals a distinct pattern of efforts to undermine the legitimacy of any scholarly study that threatens the status quo. At the same time, Schrecker deftly chronicles the erosion of university budgets and the encroachment of private-sector influence into academic life. From the dwindling numbers of full-time faculty to the collapse of library budgets, The Lost Soul of Higher Education depicts a system increasingly beholden to corporate America and starved of the resources it needs to educate the new generation of citizens. A sharp riposte to the conservative critics of the academy by the leading historian of the McCarthy-era witch hunts, The Lost Soul of Higher Education, reveals a system in peril—and defends the vital role of higher education in our democracy.

Michael, you sure know how to weave a story. I'm left wondering what is real and what is not real, and that is great. Cherie Staples, author, editor of Seeker Magazine I highly recommend it to anyone with an open mind and a love of delving into controversial subjects like good versus evil where good doesn't always win. Read it. You'll be glad you did. S. Joan Popek, MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW ...sometimes you find a story that's in a class all its own...quite amazing. Kim Gaona, Kim's Reviews I got The Chronicles of a Lost Soul yesterday. I am enjoying it thoroughly. I especially liked Daisy's Story. Also really liked Descent Into Madness. You have a very talented way of making the reader see what's not usually obvious - and you may quote me! Darrell Bain, author It starts off so well that I was immediately involved in the ideas. Your writing style is very seductive and smooth. You understate beautifully and create an environment within which the quite original ideas seem at home. Peter Stephens, author With a nuanced pen, LaRocca has created a set of psychologically astute stories. The prose is thoughtful and the poetry tempered, no undisciplined rants or raves. LaRocca employs a consistent voice and a nimble technique throughout. A smart cleverness pervades LaRocca's short stories. This collection is a worthwhile read for fans of intelligent, psychologically infused fantasy, and readers wishing to spend a few hours entertaining the darker side of death, time travel and mental lucidity. This definitely gives one something to think about. In depth thoughts. Good job! Carolyn Tyler, author

An extraordinary volume in Balzac’s vast Human Comedy (in which he endeavored to capture all of society), Lost Souls appears here in its first new English translation in half a century. Keenly attuned to the acerbic charm and subtleties of Balzac’s prose, this edition also includes an introduction presenting thorough biographical, literary, and historical context, as well as extensive notes throughout the text—an invaluable resource for today’s readers as they navigate Balzac’s copious allusions to classical and contemporaneous politics and literature.
