Wealth Management<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Edward Zuckerman \u201970<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zuckerman is an Emmy- and Edgar-winning writer and producer<\/a> of TV crime shows including \u201cBlue Bloods\u201d and the \u201cLaw & Order\u201d franchise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The protagonists of his debut novel<\/a> are three alums of Harvard Business School who become embroiled in not only a love triangle, but potentially deadly international intrigue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two of them, Catherine and Majid, are working as (possibly shady) investment managers in Geneva, Switzerland, when a Harvard classmate comes to town. <\/p>\n<\/div>

\"The<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Rafe, Catherine\u2019s old flame, claims to be working for a hedge fund\u2014but he\u2019s actually a U.S. Treasury agent on an undercover mission to investigate his old friends\u2019 alleged crimes, with links to money laundering and even terrorism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Financial Times<\/em> praises the book as a \u201cclever, entertaining romp through the world of high finance and dirty money\u201d while Library Journal<\/em> calls it a \u201cwell-plotted, intricate, and diverting thriller.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Most Precious Substance on Earth<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Shashi Bhat \u201906<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second novel<\/a> for the Canada-based author<\/a> was a finalist for the Governor General\u2019s Literary Award for Fiction. It follows an Indian-Canadian girl from age 14 into her thirties, as she copes with the fallout from adolescent traumas\u2014including a potential threat from an online predator, an attraction to a teacher, and parental pressure to date boys of a similar background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBhat approaches her weighty subject matter with grace and humor and, in doing so, finds a way of exploring trauma that is both realistic and tender,\u201d says Kirkus<\/em>. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cUnlike other coming-of-age novels that focus on the teenage or young adult years, in this one Bhat takes readers downstream and examines how those pivotal times continue to shape the protagonist as she approaches middle age.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The former English major\u2019s short fiction has been widely published; her first novel, The Family Took Shape<\/em>, came out in 2013.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pandemic Politics<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Thomas Pepinsky<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this nonfiction work<\/a> from Princeton University Press, Pepinsky (a government professor on the Hill) and two colleagues parse survey data to explore how political partisanship has worsened the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Americans of earlier generations united across party affiliation to combat health threats, they write, with COVID they have often prioritized politics over the public good\u2014and even their own. \u201cThe pandemic was a new kind of civil war, American versus American waged through distrust, enmity, and misinformation,\u201d they write. <\/p>\n<\/div>

\"the<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAnd it was a cold war. We didn\u2019t have to brandish firearms. Our weapon was politics, and the battlefield is the air we breathe.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Subtitled The Deadly Toll of Partisanship in the Age of COVID<\/em>, the book<\/a> draws from a survey of 3,000 people, whose opinions the researchers sought (at various times during the pandemic) on such issues as social distancing and the availability of vaccines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pepinsky<\/a> is the Walter F. LaFeber Professor of Government in the College of Arts and Sciences, as well as a faculty member in the Brooks School of Public Policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tuscan Son<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Robert Berne \u201970, MBA \u201971, PhD \u201977<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Berne<\/a> spent four decades as a faculty member and administrator at NYU. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He draws upon his deep experience in academia for his debut thriller<\/a>, in which a vice president at fictional Olmsted University finds himself incarcerated in a brutal prison in Panama. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The unsuspecting academic had been lured to that country under false pretenses connected to a bequest the university received, and whose acceptance he\u2019d spearheaded: a luxury villa in Tuscany, given for use as a study-abroad site.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cStructured as a series of journal entries written by the narrator in jail, Tuscan Son<\/em> intercuts descriptions of life in the Panamanian prison with wryly recounted vignettes and observations about his job at Olmsted,\u201d observes Inside Higher Ed<\/em>. \u201cOn one page the narrator is discussing the frustrating ubiquity of faculty committees; on the next he\u2019s being shaken down for cigarettes in the prison yard.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The book\u2019s cover, a watercolor painting, was created by the author\u2019s wife, Shelley Fox Berne \u201971.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Swoop and Soar<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Deborah Lee Rose \u201977<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rose, a prolific writer of children\u2019s books<\/a>, again teams up with raptor biologist Jane Veltkamp, her coauthor on the award-winning Beauty and the Beak<\/em> (about an injured bald eagle who received a 3D-printed beak). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their latest STEM book<\/a> is geared toward older elementary-aged kids.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\"the<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

It chronicles another true story: how two wild osprey chicks, orphaned in a storm, were nursed back to health and placed in a new nest with adoptive parents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The book includes numerous photos documenting the chicks\u2014named Swoop and Soar\u2014on their journey to adulthood and independence. It also offers age-appropriate scientific information about how ospreys and other raptors became endangered by the pesticide DDT and have been reintroduced to the wild, and discusses current threats to the birds, including habitat loss and plastic pollution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rose\u2019s previous STEM-oriented books include Astronauts Zoom!<\/em> and Scientists Get Dressed<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Billion Dollar Girl<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Megan Shull \u201991, PhD \u201998<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shull\u2019s previous novels<\/a> for tweens and teens include The Swap<\/em>, which was adapted as a Disney TV movie, and Bounce<\/em>, about an unhappy seventh-grader who makes a wish and is magically transported to a new life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here<\/a>, her protagonist is a 13-year-old girl named River, who runs away from a chaotic, economically disadvantaged home in the Seattle area to an island community where a relative lives. She passes herself off as an older seasonal worker, and begins to find happiness amid the island\u2019s natural beauty\u2014until her mother comes to bring her home.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Publishers Weekly<\/em> praises River\u2019s \u201ccandid voice\u201d and the book\u2019s \u201clanguorous descriptions of the natural world,\u201d noting that it \u201corganically [explores] themes of environmentalism and human connection.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imperfect Present<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sharon Dolin \u201977, PhD \u201990<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBy confronting the urgencies of daily life, from questions of identity to sexual abuse to racial unrest to the ubiquity of plastic, these poems investigate ways to sustain ourselves in our fraught public and private lives,\u201d says the collection\u2019s publisher, University of Pittsburgh Press. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith her characteristic linguistic play, Sharon Dolin<\/a> illuminates some of the most personal concerns that resonate throughout our culture and in ourselves, such as error, despair, uncertainty, and doubt.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The volume<\/a> is Dolin\u2019s seventh poetry collection.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\"the<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

She\u2019s a Fulbright Scholar, a winner of the prestigious Pushcart Prize, and an editor at Barrow Street Press. Her past publications include a prose memoir titled Hitchcock Blonde<\/em> and two translations of work by the Spanish poet Gemma Gorga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Game<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ken Dryden \u201969<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Big Red hockey season in full swing, it\u2019s an apt time to revisit Dryden\u2019s 1983 memoir<\/a>\u2014considered by many to be the best book ever written about the sport. Dubbed one of the top 10 sports books of all time by Sports Illustrated,<\/em> it was re-released in a 30th anniversary addition featuring new photos and an additional chapter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the book, which Dryden wrote during his last season as a player, the Big Red superstar and legendary NHL goalie offers vividly detailed recollections of life on and off the ice. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

He\u2019d go on to careers in business and politics, serving in Canada\u2019s House of Commons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dryden\u2019s other books include the novel The Moved and the Shaken<\/em> and the nonfiction Game Change<\/em>, which explores the epidemic of traumatic brain injury among former players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
