News and Notes/Praise and Reviews

Dr. Gil Yosipovitch, coauthor of Living with Itch: A Patient’s Guide, was featured in The New York Times and The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Library Journal says of The 36-Hour Day, audio edition: “Rabins’s well-paced, friendly, and authoritative reading capably addresses uncomfortable or potentially embarrassing topics." Click here for more information or to hear podcast excerpts of The 36-Hour Day, audio edition. The complete book is available on eleven CDs, in a print edition, or as a download from Audible.com. In The Lumière Reader, Terry Castle wrote, "One of the most elegant new critical books I've encountered recently is Janine Barchas's Matters of Fact in Jane Austen: History, Location, and Celebrity—a very original and well-researched, sometimes mind-blowing study of the numerous real-world people who stand 'behind' individual Austen characters. Barchas is stunning, for example, on Northanger Abbey, one of Austen's more elusive fictions."
