Dear Colleagues,
In Georgetown University Press is celebrating its sixtieth year of publishing
books for a better world. Over the decades we’ve been publishing books that push
scholarly boundaries, help students learn world languages, and more recently,
explore the history and cultures of Washington, DC. roughout this anniversary
year, we’ll be celebrating classic books in each of these areas, such as Deborah
Tannen and Anna Marie Trester’s Discourse 2.0, the Al-Kitaab Arabic Language
Program, and Black Georgetown Remembered.
In we’ll also be publishing what I believe is our strongest list of new books
yet. Maurice Jackson’s Rhythms of Resistance and Resilience provides a new angle
on the Black history of DC, while Mahmoud Azaz and Ayman Mohamed’s
El-Mumtaaz: Beginning Contemporary Egyptian Arabic continues our tradition of
publishing impactful language texts. Sarah Dusek’s inking Bigger and Matthew
Kohut’s Speaking Out signal a new endeavor for the press. Our global business list
aims to contribute to creating a more productive and just economy.
We look forward to celebrating our th birthday with all our partners.
Sincerely,
Al Bertrand

A Pitch-Deck Formula for Women Who Want to
Change the World
SARAH DUSEK
Foreword by Suneera Madhani
A GUIDE FOR WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS TO HELP THEM GET
THE FINANCING THEY NEED TO BUILD BIG BUSINESSES AND
CHANGE OUR WORLD
e lack of female representation among
top-earning business founders is surprising when
compared with the number of women who start
businesses. Fewer than thirty women in history have
taken companies they founded public on leading
stock exchanges. Although consistent references
to “women and small business” dominate global
development strategies and inuence public policy,
women are granted less than percent of all venture
capital investments annually.
inking Bigger is designed to provide women
with the keys to unlocking capital and thinking
bigger. Its author, Sarah Dusek, an entrepreneur
and a venture capitalist, shares personal anecdotes
highlighting obstacles that women face in business
and how to overcome them. She reveals the metrics
that really matter to venture capitalists and how to
pitch them successfully. Her book delves into the art
and science of creating a winning “pitch deck”—the
standard formula for pitching to investors—from
crafting a compelling story to using data and design
to make a lasting impact.
inking Bigger positions women to get the
nancing they need—to build big businesses, to
scale their endeavors, and to make a positive impact
on our world.
SARAH DUSEK is the cofounder of Few & Far, an eco-travel company, and
the cofounder of Enygma Ventures, a venture capital fund that she launched
after scaling up her first travel business, Under Canvas, to $100 million. She
invests in women-led businesses in Southern Africa, creates solutions for
wealth disparities, and champions access to capital for women.
“Sarah’s journey deeply inspires. She
proves that success, particularly for
female entrepreneurs like us, is within
reach. Her book is a personal roadmap
for achieving greatness.”
—Kara Goldin, founder & former CEO, Hint
“A must read for women who are
building businesses and thinking about
raising venture capital. Dusek draws on
her experience as an entrepreneur
and venture investor to provide incredibly
practical and tactical advice to
founders who want to scale.”

Q&A WITH THE AUTHOR
At what point in your career did you realize the
need for a book like Thinking Bigger?
In 2015, six years into building my company,
Under Canvas, a venture capitalist visited one
of our sites and emphasized the urgent need for
us to raise capital to grow exponentially. Despite
loving the idea of expanding our business, I
realized I had no knowledge of how to raise
capital. is encounter revealed a signicant
gap in my understanding and sparked a journey
of learning the ins and outs of investment
and business growth. It was through my own
experiences and the realization that many
women entrepreneurs faced similar knowledge gaps that the idea for inking
Bigger was born.
Would you say Thinking Bigger functions as both an informational guide and
professional memoir?
Yes. inking Bigger delves into the art and science of creating a winning pitch
deck, oering practical, usable tools for women entrepreneurs, alongside real-life
examples from other female entrepreneurs and stories from my own journey as both
an entrepreneur and an investor. e book provides the necessary tools to succeed while
also sharing personal experiences that highlight the challenges and victories of my
entrepreneurial journey.
How does Thinking Bigger meet the needs of women entrepreneurs?
inking Bigger is designed to meet the needs of women entrepreneurs by addressing
the knowledge gaps and challenges they often face, particularly in the realms of nance
and business growth. It oers practical advice on creating compelling pitch decks,
understanding investment and funding, and scaling businesses. e book emphasizes
the importance of women-led businesses in creating a more equal and diverse world
and provides strategies to overcome barriers to funding. It empowers women to shift
their thinking, embrace larger ambitions, and harness investment opportunities to
build signicant, scalable businesses.
Speaking Out
e New Rules of Business Leadership
Communication
MATTHEW KOHUT
A NEW LENS FOR UNDERSTANDING HOW TO NAVIGATE
POLITICAL AND SOCIAL ISSUES IN BUSINESS LEADERSHIP
COMMUNICATIONS
Corporate leaders are increasingly expected
to issue statements on a range of complex and
controversial political and social issues as they arise.
As a result, chief executives run the risk of falling
into the “talking trap,” and thus needing to
comment on every issue du jour. However, those
whose only strategy is to avoid risk by saying
nothing do so at their own peril.
Speaking Out oers a new framework for under-
standing how to manage corporate communications
challenges with a shared emphasis on actions and
words. Case studies of leaders who have spoken out
and backed their words with action are contrasted
with those of others who have had mixed records
on accountability, failed to show progress in public
commitments, or faced consequences for taking a
stance. ese real-world examples demonstrate the
dierence between public relations eorts that can
be easily dismissed as spin and authentic communi-
cation that enhances credibility and trust.
Speaking Out demonstrates that managing risk
today involves knowing not just when to speak and
what to say but also what to do. Providing much-
needed guidance, this book will be an invaluable
compass for eective corporate communications
for established and aspiring C-suite leaders alike.
Professionals working in corporate and executive
communications, marketing and branding, govern-
ment relations, corporate social responsibility, and
public relations will also benet from the wisdom
within Speaking Out.
MATTHEW KOHUT is the coauthor of The Smart Mission: NASA’s Lessons

Amazon’s Best Business Books of 2013. As the managing partner of KNP
Communications, he has prepared CEOs, elected officials, and public figures
for events from live television appearances to TED talks.
“With the profound changes taking
place in our society, companies have
had to rethink their role in terms of
both responsibility and the political
environment. Kohut’s new book is the
first definitive look at this topic
and a must read for every senior
executive team looking for a
comprehensive guide to this topic.”
—Paul A. Argenti, professor of corporate
communication, Tuck School of Business,

“An invaluable guide for all chief
communications ocers, indeed for all

CEO or board on what to say and how
and when to say it, read this first.”

Q&A WITH THE AUTHOR
How did the changing cultural climate of the
United States impact the process of writing
this book?
Business leaders increasingly nd themselves
forced to navigate complex political and social
issues in part because of broad cultural changes in
the United States over the past dozen years or so.
It’s important to recognize that cultural changes
are intertwined with the political context in the
United States, which has become increasingly
partisan over the same period. In many cases,
corporate leaders have had to deal with issues
aecting their employees after political leaders
have proposed legislation that restricts the freedoms of a certain group of people.
Did you find it necessary to adapt and alter some chapters or points of focus
based on what was going on in the country at large?
e challenge with writing a book like this is that issues constantly emerge, evolve,
and disappear. e case study of Anheuser-Busch’s response to the social media backlash
against its relationship with inuencer Dylan Mulvaney unfolded in real time
while I was nalizing the manuscript. Since many issues are ephemeral, I focused
on identifying 1) the cultural and political dynamics that can shape issues, and 2)
enduring principles of eective communication that leaders should keep in mind when
deciding how to respond to an issue.
What does Speaking Out add to the discourse around communication in busi-
nesses and corporations?
Speaking Out is the rst book-length exploration of the role of political and social
issues in business leadership communications. ings are fundamentally dierent now
than in the late twentieth century, when the standard playbook for risk avoidance
was simply to say nothing. On any given issue, today’s corporate leaders have to weigh
the risk of speaking out against the risk of remaining silent. e case studies in the
book illustrate both the complex stakeholder dynamics that inform these decisions as
well as the importance of backing words with action.
e Warren Court and the
Democratic Constitution
MORTON J. HORWITZ
Afterword by Erwin Chemerinsky
A TIMELY HISTORY OF THE PROFOUND IMPACT OF EARL
WARREN’S SUPREME COURT ON MANY AREAS OF MODERN
AMERICAN GOVERNMENT AND SOCIETY
From to , Earl Warren served as chief
justice of the US Supreme Court. During that time,
the Warren Court made a number of historically
important decisions involving anti-miscegenation
laws (Loving v. Virginia), the right to privacy
(Griswold v. Connecticut), and, perhaps most impor-
tant, racial segregation (Brown v. Board of Education).
In e Warren Court and the Democratic
Constitution, Horwitz highlights the radical shift in
traditional jurisprudential ideas that occurred during
Earl Warren’s tenure as chief justice. He details
how Brown v. Board of Education exerted a powerful
inuence on the agenda of the Warren Court and
reshaped almost every subject area in constitutional
law. With this decision, the concept of a “living
Constitution,” the idea that the Constitution
ought to develop to accommodate social change,
emerged and was institutionalized by the Court.
Brown inspired a more active reading of the Equal
Protection Clause and recognized the rights of
supposed “outsiders” (e.g., undocumented peoples
and children born out of wedlock).
e Warren Court’s jurisprudence is radically
opposed to the current Supreme Court’s emphasis
on originalism, the approach of interpreting the
Constitution according to its meaning at the time
of writing. Readers interested in an alternative to
originalism, as well as Supreme Court history and
civil rights, will gain a deeper understanding of the
profound impact of the Warren Court on many
areas of modern American government and society.
MORTON J. HORWITZ is the Charles Warren Professor of American Legal
History Emeritus at Harvard Law School. He is the author of numerous
articles on American legal history, as well as The Transformation of American
Law, 1870–1960 (1992) and The Warren Court and the Pursuit of Justice
(1998).
“The Warren Court’s decisions look in
retrospect like the high point of legal
liberalism: the judiciary’s promotion
of civil rights, civil liberties, and the
institutions of democracy. In Morton
Horwitz’s majestic, nuanced, and
judicious account, the court has found
a history worthy of its momentous
importance.”

Q&A WITH THE AUTHOR
Why is it important to reflect on the Warren Court in our current political climate?
e Warren Court reminds readers of a time not too long ago when the Supreme
Court advanced equality and democracy as supreme constitutional values.
What has changed or been uncovered since publication of your earlier work:
The Warren Court and the Pursuit of Justice?
My previous Warren Court book covers only a portion of the important events
of the Warren Era. e biggest dierence is in the use of newly available internal
accounts: the diaries and letters of some of the justices as well as accounts of the justices’
law clerks.
What do you hope readers will take away from this book?
Understanding constitutional law requires knowledge of both the personal and the
political, the biographical and the legal. I seek to oer biographical insight into the
legal values of the major gures of the Warren Court. I hope that the reader comes to
realize, in the words of Justice Holmes, that “the life of the law has not been logic; it
has been experience.

Rhythms of Resistance
and Resilience
How Black Washingtonians Used Music and
Sports in the Fight for Equality
MAURICE JACKSON
Foreword by E. Ethelbert Miller
THE STORIES OF THE BLACK MEN AND WOMEN WHO
COMBATED RACIAL PREJUDICE IN WASHINGTON, DC,
WITH SPORTS AND MUSIC
In the nation’s capital, music and sports have
played a central role in the lives of African
Americans, often serving as a barometer of social
conict and social progress—for sports clubs and
ball games, jam sessions and concerts oered
entertainment, enlightenment, and encouragement.
At times, they have also oered a means of escape
from the harsh realities of everyday life.
Rhythms of Resistance and Resilience tells the story
of these musicians and athletes who have used their
skills and their determination to achieve success
in the face of discrimination. Jackson begins with
pioneers such as James Reese Europe, who formed
the rst musicians’ union in the city and fought as a
member of the Harlem Hellghters in World War
I, and ends with giants of the twentieth century,
such as Duke Ellington and Georgetown University
basketball coaching legend John ompson Jr.
Readers interested in the history of Washington,
DC, the civil rights movement, racial justice, music,
and sports will draw important lessons from these
stories of the Black men and women who found in
sports and music spaces to combat racial prejudice
and bring people in the District of Columbia
together.
MAURICE JACKSON teaches Atlantic World and African American history
at Georgetown University. He is the author of Let This Voice Be Heard and
coeditor of African Americans and the Haitian Revolution and DC Jazz
(Georgetown University Press, 2018). He was the inaugural chair of the
Washington, DC, Commission on African American Affairs, appointed
by the mayor.
“Detailing the emerging backbone of
modern American culture, this inspiring
chronicle maps the undercurrent of soul
rippling just beneath the surface of blues
choruses and home runs in one of our
great metropolises.”

Nannie Helen Burroughs
A Tower of Strength in the Labor World
DANIELLE PHILLIPSCUNNINGHAM
THE OVERLOOKED STORY OF ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL
LABOR LEADERS OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY REVEALS
POWERFUL LESSONS THAT STILL RESONATE
At the dawn of the twentieth century, Black
girls and women faced a harsh career landscape.
Domestic labor and sharecropping—which were the
most unregulated and lowest-paying occupations
for women in the US economy—were the few
available ways for Black women and girls to make
a living in Jane Crow America. In response to
these circumstances, Nannie Helen Burroughs, the
pioneering Black American educator and civil rights
leader, established the National Training School for
Women and Girls (NTS) in Washington, DC.
Nannie Helen Burroughs tells the story of the
powerful and unprecedented labor movement that
resulted from Burroughs’s work at the NTS and
with her colleagues in the National Association of
Colored Women’s Clubs. e NTS proved to be a
revolutionary labor and educational initiative that
redened household employment as a profession
where social justice for the Black community could
be achieved. e NTS was integral to the Black
clubwomen’s labor movement, which paved the way
for the broader transformation of the economic
landscape for Black women and girls.
Nannie Helen Burroughs shines a light on a history
that has been largely overlooked by scholars. It
establishes Burroughs as one of America’s most
inuential labor leaders in the twentieth century and
reveals the powerful lessons her work and ideas still
oer America’s laborers, labor organizers, scholars,
and women’s rights and racial justice activists.
DANIELLE PHILLIPSCUNNINGHAM is an associate professor in the
Department of Labor Studies and Employment Relations at Rutgers
University–New Brunswick. She is the recipient of the National Women’s
Studies Association’s Sara A. Whaley Book Prize for Putting Their Hands on
Race (2020).
“Phillips-Cunningham’s meticulously
researched book on Nannie Burroughs
makes a major contribution to labor
history, African American and women’s
history, and Black feminist studies.”

Q&A WITH THE AUTHOR
What was the research process like for writing
this book? What drew you to Nannie Helen
Burroughs?
I was drawn to Nannie Helen Burroughs
after coming across a reference to her National
Association of Wage Earners while conducting
research for my rst book. It was the rst national
organization of the twentieth century dedicated
to advocating for standardized wages and
working conditions for Black domestic workers. I
was inspired to dig further into the treasure trove
of materials in the Burroughs papers and write a
book about the daring woman behind this historic
organization.
How does this book add to the existing scholarship about Nannie Helen Burroughs?
is is the rst book-length study that establishes Burroughs as one of the most
inuential labor leaders of the twentieth century. It also establishes Burroughs’s
National Training School for Women and Girls, which she founded in 1909, as a
signicant site of labor organizing that advanced labor movements in the twentieth
century.
What do you hope people take away from this comprehensive exploration of
Nannie Helen Burroughs and her impact on the labor world?
I want people to take away from my book that Burroughs and other Black women
educators of the National Association of Colored Women (NACW) were labor scholars
and strategists who believed that women’s rights and civil rights were inherent to
labor rights. ey mobilized their comprehensive vision of labor rights to build an
unprecedented labor movement in Jane Crow America. Legal scholar Pauli Murray
coined the term Jane Crow to describe racial and gender discrimination enshrined in
twentieth century laws, institutions, and social movements.
Burroughs and her co-organizers’ unyielding commitment to challenging intersecting
racial, class, and gender disparities at the heart of the US economy is foundational to
legislation such as the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act
of 1964.
Hezbollah
e Global Footprint of Lebanon’s Party of God
With a new epilogue by the author
MATTHEW LEVITT
THIS BOOK REMAINS THE MOST THOROUGH EXAMINATION
OF HEZBOLLAH’S COVERT ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE LEBANON
THAT EXAMINES RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
Hezbollah—which translates as “Party of God”—
is a multifaceted organization: it is a powerful
political party in Lebanon, a Shia Islam religious
and social movement, Lebanon’s largest militia,
a close ally of Iran and Hamas, and a terrorist
organization.
Drawing on a wide range of sources—including
declassied government documents, court records,
and personal interviews with intelligence and law
enforcement ocials around the world—Hezbollah
examines the party’s beginnings, its rst violent
forays into Lebanon, and its subsequent terrorist
activities and criminal enterprises worldwide. e
book describes Hezbollah’s ongoing role in Iran’s
shadow war with Israel and the West. is updated
edition includes a new preface and a substantive
afterword by the author to update readers on
Hezbollah’s activities in recent years, particularly in
supporting the Assad regime in Syria’s civil war and
the latest cross-border ghting between Hezbollah
and Israel since October , .
Levitt shows that Hezbollah’s willingness to use
violence both at home and abroad, its global reach,
and its proxy–patron relationship with Iran remain
serious international concerns. is is an important
book for scholars, policymakers, students, and the
members of the general public who are interested
in international security, terrorism, international
criminal organizations, and Middle East studies.
MATTHEW LEVITT is the Fromer-Wexler Fellow at The Washington Institute
for Near East Policy where he directs the Institute’s Reinhard Program on
Counterterrorism and Intelligence. He is an adjunct professor at Georgetown
University, and previously served in various US government positions at the
Treasury and State Departments and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. He
is the author of Hamas (2006) and Negotiating Under Fire (2008).
“Matthew Levitt’s book touches a
key point of the growing debate on
Hezbollah: the European approach to
the phenomenon. It is a reminder for us
Europeans that there are threats that
might seem distant geographically, but
could nevertheless have a strong impact
politically on the continent as well.”

Q&A WITH THE AUTHOR
How does this book help us to better under-
stand the possible future actions of Hezbollah?
In the decade since the last update to the book was
published, Hezbollah has fought a war in Syria,
signicantly expanded its role as a regional
coordinator of Iran’s proxy networks, pursued
a massive arms procurement project, increased
its illicit nancial actives around the world
and involving Lebanese banks, and continued
carrying out terrorist plots around the world.
Even before Hezbollah started ring rockets
into Israel on a near daily basis in the wake of
the Hamas attacks of October 7, 2023, the group
had started moving the goalposts of the long established informal ‘rules of the game’
between Israel and Hezbollah. Understanding Hezbollah’s trajectory over the past
few years will help explain the group’s future actions in Lebanon, the Middle East,
and beyond.
How does the recently declassified information included in this book challenge or
reinforce the general understanding of Hezbollah?
Signicant amounts of new information included in this book shed light on how
Hezbollah activities have changed, remained the same, or expanded over the past
several years. Hezbollah remains the most powerful ghting force in Lebanon, but
its political position has been challenged by its stance on the Syrian civil war, the
Beirut explosion, and its role in the political and economic crises facing the country.
Meanwhile, Hezbollah’s regional activities—and its role as a coordinator for Iranian
proxies in the region—has expanded signicantly. is, even as the group lost more
ghters battling fellow Muslims in Syria than in all its wars and conicts with the
State of Israel combined. And yet, Hezbollah’s ties to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary
Guard Corps (IRGC), and it’s Qods Force in particular, has gotten much stronger
over the past few years.
Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence
A Concise History
STEVEN R. WARD
THE FIRST BOOK ABOUT IRAN’S SHADOWY MINISTRY OF
INTELLIGENCE
Steven R. Ward provides an accessible overview
of Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence (MOIS) and its
focus on tracking and countering domestic dissent
and perceived foreign-inspired sedition. e
ministry’s checkered record of eective intelligence
operations includes a history of assassinations and
human rights abuses. Developing a clearer picture of
the MOIS is important for understanding how the
Islamic Republic of Iran operates, seeks security, and
competes with its adversaries.
Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence updates and
improves on the paucity of available information
about Iranian intelligence activities. e chapters in
the book cover the MOIS’s origins, leaders, structure
and organizational culture, operations and tradecraft,
foreign partners, cultural representations, and
future outlook. e book also provides a signicant
examination of this contemporary intelligence
agency that does not follow the model of Western
organizations.
Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence will be of interest to
scholars, students, and general readers of intelligence
and Iran’s history and politics. It will also be an
important resource for national security and foreign
policy practitioners.
STEVEN R. WARD worked as an intelligence officer for nearly thirty years with
the Central Intelligence Agency, covering Middle Eastern, South Asian, and
related national security issues. He served as a deputy national intelligence
officer for the Near East and South Asia on the National Intelligence Council
(2005–6) and as a director of intelligence programs for the National Security
Council (1998–99). He is a retired US Army Reserve lieutenant colonel and
1980 graduate of the US Military Academy. He also is the author of Immortal:
A Military History of Iran and Its Armed Forces (Georgetown University
Press, 2009 and 2014).
“The study of secretive security
organizations is a challenging venture. In
this groundbreaking study of the Islamic
Republic of Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence,
Ward rises to the task and deftly crafts a
valuable resource that is as timely
as it is prescient.”

Q&A WITH THE AUTHOR
What did you find was missing from scholarship
about Iran’s intelligence ministry?
I realized there was a lack of recent scholarly
work on the MOIS. e most comprehensive
and often referenced study is a twelve-year-old
report from the Library of Congress, and there
have been few journal articles in the last decade
focusing solely on the MOIS and its history.
My book aims to bridge this gap by providing a
concise yet comprehensive history of the MOIS,
detailing its leadership, structure, and operations.
How has the ministry changed since
its origination?
Since its establishment in 1984, the MOIS has steadily evolved while maintaining
a focus on protecting the regime primarily from internal security threats and
feared foreign-inspired and supported sedition. Initially created to unify numerous
revolutionary security organizations, the MOIS blended conservative and reformist
elements from the Iranian Revolution with personnel and tactics from the Shah’s
intelligence services. As it a result, it embedded various political divisions that
continue to aect its intelligence gathering and counterespionage operations and its
often-harsh treatment of Iranians.
How has your experience working in the CIA impacted your approach to writing
on this topic? What are some of the unique advantages of writing from your

Drawing on my experience as a CIA intelligence analyst from 1985 to 2014 and
my subsequent consulting work on Iran for the National Intelligence Council and
US Central Command, I was able to bring to my research and writing a deep
understanding of the Islamic Republic’s history, government, military and security
services, and domestic and foreign policies. is extensive background allowed me
to enrich the account of the nearly forty-year evolution of the MOIS’s leadership,
organization, tradecraft, relationships, and culture with important historical and
cultural context.
Faces
MOHAMED CHOUKRI
Translated from Arabic by Jonas Elbousty
Foreword by Roger Allen
THE FIRST ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF ONE OF THE NOVELS
THAT HELPED CHANGE MODERN ARAB LITERATURE
Mohamed Choukri, one of the most important
writers of modern Moroccan literature, grew up in
extreme poverty in Tangier and was illiterate until
the age of twenty. After learning to read, he realized
that “writing could also be a way to expose, to
protest against those who have stolen my childhood,
my teenage-hood and a piece of my youthfulness.”
His vivid portrayals of marginalized people, which
had been considered taboo, led to the censorship of
his work and a cultural backlash in the Middle East.
In Faces, the third book in his trilogy of ctional-
ized autobiographical works, he describes gritty
events, extreme poverty, prostitution, violence, sexual
revelry, deprivation, and abuse. It is through his
storytelling that Choukri reects on human nature,
love, and kindness—emphasizing the need for com-
munity and collaboration. Faces humanizes those
undergoing poverty and places the blame for the
violence they encounter squarely on colonial forces
and the resulting postcolonial government, while
opening literary traditions to a new style of writing.
Choukri’s friendships with Tennessee Williams,
Paul Bowles, Jean Genet, and other writers brought
him attention in his lifetime. But Faces—his last
novel, which was originally published in Arabic
in —has remained untranslated until now.
In English for the rst time, Jonas Elbousty’s
translation allows Choukri’s work to reach wider
international discussions of contemporary Arab
literature.
MOHAMED CHOUKRI (1935–2003) was a key figure in twentieth-century
Arabic literature. His oeuvre includes many works, including his autobiographi-
cal trilogy, comprising For Bread Alone, Streetwise, and Faces.
JONAS ELBOUSTY teaches in the Department of Near Eastern Studies at
Yale University and is the director of undergraduate studies at the Council
on Middle East Studies of the Yale MacMillan Center. He is the author or
coauthor of eight books.
“Thanks to Jonas Elbousty’s subtle and
nuanced translation, Mohamed Choukri’s
groundbreaking novelistic autobiography
is now fully available in English with its
devastating and uncompromising gaze on
modern Morocco. A must read.”

Choukri Faces Excerpt from Chapter 1
When the experience becomes stronger than regret, the feeling of guilt dissipates.
rough this experience, I will not try either to absolve or condemn myself and others.
Like a silkworm, I swing between feelings of absolute joy and absolute sorrow. Oh, if
only you knew the beautiful things I wish for you or myself! What I wish for myself
might be less beautiful than what I wish for everyone who shares my curse. I will
never be afraid of a cursed and gloomy tomorrow: whether it be alone or with the
devil.
Even nights in Tangier, which, until the very recent past, managed to preserve some
of their youthful and beautiful spirit, have now become old, abby, ugly, and soaked
with shit. ey have turned brutal as they no longer inspire comfort or security. I
know that they are trying to avoid the charges leveled at them and all the suspicious
things they have done. Even though I am aware that night has now become the
Godfather and ally of crime, I will never stand against it, turn away, or forget how it
used to keep me company. I am so indebted to it, for it was my support and ally in the
dicult and strange times I have been through. I will not deny its benecial side, and
yet today I will not be an accomplice to the horric crimes that it commits, which lead
to the death of innocent people--crimes for which it has been unwilling to repent.
Mirrors for Princes
How “Tips for Tyrants” Became Clichés
of Leadership
MICHAEL KEELEY
A HISTORICAL LOOK AT THE ROOTS OF MANAGEMENT
THEORY REVEALS ITS FLAWS AND OFFERS IMPORTANT
LESSONS FOR TODAY’S LEADERS
For four thousand years, kings and queens ruled
the known world, while management experts—in
the guises of sages, clerics, and courtiers of all
kinds—told them how to do it. ese proto-experts
in leadership, ethics, and strategy wrote books
describing the perfect prince. In such books, rulers
could seek and polish their own reection, as in a
looking glass. ese books were called mirrors for
princes.
Mirrors for Princes documents the clichés of this
genre of literature. Typical mirrors taught the same
formula, over and over: that people behave badly
because of their pursuit of self-interest, which needs
to be harnessed to a common goal by the ruler or
leader. Eighteenth-century revolutions spelled the
demise of princes and led to books that sought
to instruct them. Today, the clichés of mirrors for
princes live on in modern mirrors for managers. e
rhetoric of common goals and transformational
leadership has a pleasing resonance for top managers,
arming their authority, just as it did for kings
and queens in mirrors for princes. Keeley’s goal is
to sensitize readers to these clichés and to provide
today’s business leaders with the tools to think more
critically when reading business books.
Mirrors for Princes concludes with advice for
writers of management literature, suggesting how
organizational theorists and business ethicists might
avoid replicating the clichés of mirrors for princes by
adopting a social-contract model of organizations.
MICHAEL KEELEY emeritus professor of management at Loyola
University Chicago, is the author of A Social-Contract Theory of
Organizations (1988) and has published his research in top-tier journals
in both management and business ethics.
“Keeley shows why we must break with
classic business books’ failed diagnoses
and clichéd advice, oering both a
cautionary tale and better ways to think
about leading.”
—Joanne B. Ciulla, director, Institute for Ethical
Leadership, Rutgers Business School
“Michael Keeley’s ambitious survey of
mirrors for princes is a truly remarkable
work of scholarship. The fascinating range
of thinkers and texts that are expertly
connected in Mirrors for Princes will
change how we think about the novelty of
management literature.”

Q&A WITH THE AUTHOR
What drew you to the genre of mirrors for
princes in the first place?
is book had a long gestation. It began as a
book on James Madison. rough his opposition
to e Idea of a Patriot King, a popular essay
on politics of the day, Madison led me to mirrors
for princes. e essay’s author, a British lord
named Bolingbroke, called for a Patriot King
to transform the self-interest of individuals and
unite them in the pursuit of a shared goal: the
common good. Historians of political thought
now point to e Idea of a Patriot King as
“the last major example in the English-speaking
world” of the mirror-for-princes genre.
It led me to ask what exactly this genre of literature was. If it ended with
Bolingbroke, when did it begin? Who wrote mirrors for princes, and what did they all
say?
How did you come to realize the potential for the clichés within the genre to be
applicable to organizations and management styles today
In researching mirrors for princes, I found that they sometimes addressed topical
issues and diered in certain details; yet these books were remarkably similar in focus,
repetitive to a fault: eir authors detected a problem—people were behaving badly.
ey diagnosed a cause—individuals were too selsh. And they prescribed a cure—
people need a common goal and a leader to articulate it. e similarity to modern
theories of “transformational” leadership is apparent. is book traces the clichés of
mirrors for princes in the writings of management pioneers such as Robert Owen,
Elton, Mayo, Peter Drucker, and James MacGregor Burns.
e Arts of Leading

Foreword by Elleke Boehmer
A DEEPLY INSIGHTFUL APPROACH TO CULTIVATING LEADERS
OF CHARACTER CENTERED ON THE ARTS AND HUMANITIES
What does it mean to lead? Whom do we
consider to be leaders? And how might viewing
leadership through the many lenses of the humani-
ties expand our understanding of how it is imagined,
represented, and enacted?
Drawing on insights from eminent scholars in
the classics, philosophy, religion, literature, history,
art, music, and the theater, e Arts of Leading
reveals the power of the arts and humanities to
unsettle common assumptions about leadership and
oer new contexts. Rather than instrumentalizing
the arts and humanities or reducing them to mere
management resources, this series of thoughtful
and refreshing essays engages a litany of diverse and
nuanced perspectives to uncover alternative ways of
imagining and embodying leadership across dier-
ent historical, moral, political, and cultural contexts.
By exploring how a wide range of disciplines
can illuminate and humanize complex aspects of
leadership that are often obscured in a discourse
hooked on reductive paradigms and quick xes, e
Arts of Leading invites leaders, scholars, and citizens
to expand their practice of leadership in our ever-
evolving world.

MANAR SWEILLAM MORALES
A STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK FOR BUSINESSES LEADERS
WHO ARE GRAPPLING WITH THE BACKLASH AGAINST THE
POSTPANDEMIC “RETURN TO OFFICE” DEMONSTRATES THE
STRONG CASE FOR HOLISTIC FLEXIBILITY
Forced to allow remote and hybrid work
arrangements during the onset of COVID-, some
organizations made the transition to exibility with
great success, but others oundered because they
failed to integrate diversity and exibility policies
throughout their culture. is book shows how
to build practices that maximize the potential of
every work environment, whether hybrid or not,
for connection, collaboration, communication, and
contribution.
e Flexibility Paradigm posits that in order
to create the return on experience required for
exibility, leaders and managers need to shift their
perspective and recognize exibility as a way to
strengthen their organization. Hybrid work is just
one part of holistic exibility, whereby people have
options for not just where they work but also how
long they work and when they work. Formerly
misperceived as a “women’s issue,” exibility is now
seen to benet all employees; therefore, it must be
degendered, deparented, and destigmatized.
is book presents the strategy and framework
needed by professional services rms and other
organizations to create an entire culture that allows
their organization to build on their strengths
and lead the future of work. Leaders will learn
that exibility has a strong business case: it drives
productivity, talent, diversity, engagement, sustain-
ability, and ultimately protability.

Q&A WITH THE AUTHOR
How is your book in conversation with discourses
surrounding work environments and productivity?
My book thoroughly investigates the
transformative impact of workplace exibility,
underpinned by extensive research and evidence.
It makes a compelling case that exibility, when
implemented thoughtfully, is a critical driver of
talent acquisition, productivity enhancement,
diversity, and overall well-being. I explore
various aspects of exibility such as remote work,
exible hours, and job customization, which
can create more inclusive and productive work
environments for everyone.
Why is flexibility so necessary in the workplace in contemporary American society?
In the fast-evolving landscape of contemporary American society, exibility within
the workplace transcends mere convenience, evolving into a critical cornerstone for
talent recruitment, retention, and advancement. Its profound impact on diversity,
productivity, and protability cannot be overstated. e COVID-19 pandemic served
as a pivotal catalyst, compelling businesses and employees alike to explore and adopt
exible work arrangements as a means of survival. is collective experience not
only demonstrated the tangible benets of exibility but also cultivated a widespread
reluctance to revert to rigid, pre-pandemic work modalities.
How have your own feelings about the importance of flexibility in the workplace
evolved during your professional life?
My conviction in the indispensability of workplace exibility is deeply rooted in both
personal and professional experiences. As an employment lawyer and a new mother,
my pursuit of a reduced-hour schedule was not just a preference but a necessity to
remain in the workforce. is quest was not without its challenges, but it ultimately
enabled me to sculpt a work-life alignment that fullled my personal needs and
professional aspirations. Had it not been for the possibility to customize my work
arrangement, I might have found myself compelled to exit the legal eld entirely.
is personal journey sparked a profound interest in the prevalence and impact of
workplace exibility on employee retention.

Investing in America’s Infrastructure
SADEK WAHBA
A BOLD PLAN FOR THE UNITED STATES TO REGAIN THE
LEAD IN INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT THROUGH
PRIVATIZATION AND PUBLICPRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS
America’s infrastructure—its essential roads,
bridges, ports, airports, power grids, and telecom-
munications systems—were once the pride of the
nation and an example for the world. But now, after
years of neglect and oversight, this infrastructure
is crumbling and causing catastrophic changes in
the US quality of life. Build seeks to explain how
American infrastructure collapsed and what can be
done to repair it.
In a series of colorful, rarely told cases, Build
takes readers on a revealing tour behind the scenes
of the successes and debacles of key infrastructure
projects to show what works, why the United
States has failed in recent decades to invest in
infrastructure, and how the private sector can help
revitalize the sector, spur job growth, and contribute
to climate resilience.
Sadek Wahba examines the private origins of US
infrastructure and the federally funded megaprojects
that came after the New Deal, investigating the
role the private sector can and should play in
building infrastructure. By drawing comparisons
with systems in the United Kingdom, France, India,
and China, Wahba shows that while privatization
and public-private partnerships cannot solve all
infrastructure challenges, they are essential for
closing funding gaps, overcoming political paralysis,
and driving major infrastructure advances.
Build will appeal to readers interested in public
nance, domestic policy, the role of the federal
government, tax policy, and urban aairs.
SADEK WAHBA is the founder, chairman, and managing partner of I Squared
Capital, an independent global infrastructure investment company. He is
a senior fellow at New York University’s Development Research Institute
and a foundation fellow at St. Antony’s College of the University of Oxford.
A former World Bank economist, he serves on the President’s National

“Wahba makes a compelling case for
greater private sector involvement in
America’s infrastructure investment. This
book is essential reading for anyone who
cares about our long-term success in the
twenty-first century and beyond.”

Q&A WITH THE AUTHOR
How does infrastructure investment aect other
aspects of American culture and life?
Infrastructure itself is, of course, of incalculable
value to American culture and life in general,
though we often don’t notice it or take it for
granted—until it stops working. In surveys
I conducted for Build, I found consistently
that Americans want strong, ecient,
environmentally resilient, and well managed
infrastructure, and they don’t care who delivers
it, whether it’s the government or the private
sector. e purpose of this book is to say, above all,
the important thing is that America gets back to
building, whatever it takes.
What are some common misconceptions about infrastructure investment and how
does your book address these misconceptions?
One might think that roads, bridges, water, and wastewater management as well
as airports and railroads have been the sacrosanct property of state and federal
government. But in fact, each one of these infrastructure sectors was dominated
by private activity. Another misconception is that privatization of infrastructure,
through outright sale or through a public-private partnership, is tantamount to
forfeiting government control to the private sector. Build provides concrete evidence
that outcomes in well-structured P3s (public private partnerships) and privatization
schemes have yielded higher eciency, greater compliance with regulations, and
higher quality services compared to traditional government-managed assets. But
we should not conclude that privatization is the only solution; I prone a pragmatic
non-dogmatic approach.
What kind of insights are you hoping people gain about infrastructure investment
in the United States after reading Build?
e rst thing I hope Build will impress upon its readers is that the challenges facing
US infrastructure provision and management cannot simply be solved with more
state and federal funding. Relying on government spending for infrastructure keeps
municipalities and state governments locked in cycles of bond issuance, debt-service,
and credit-rating maintenance, which are crippling American municipalities both
small and large and simply cannot continue in the present model. We sometimes think
there is no alternative to this cycle, and this is what Build hopes to change.

Tales from the Front Lines of Intellectual
Property and the New Biology
JORGE GOLDSTEIN
THE STORY OF THE COMMERCIALIZATION OF BIOLOGY BY A
PIONEER IN BIOTECHNOLOGY PATENTING
Shortly after the emergence of genetic engineer-
ing in the s, academic biologists were courted
by venture capitalists and multinational companies.
Researchers who understood the new biology of the
time went from being merely curious about how the
natural world functioned to realizing that they could
prot from their newfound recognition. As they
were inventing all sorts of newfangled organisms,
biologists became acquainted with intellectual
property.
Patenting Life provides insights into legal ghts
over patented microbes, virus-resistant crops, owner-
ship of body parts, and the patents they engendered.
Covering the early days of recombinant DNA
science to the present, Goldstein shares cases from
his own career and those of others involving block-
buster biological drugs, aseptic mosquitoes, geneti-
cally engineered cows, and CRISPR, the modern
gene-editing technology that promises to vanquish
congenital diseases such as sickle cell anemia. He
also addresses the perceived downsides of the patent
system: the high prices of drugs, international access
to COVID- vaccines and other medicines, and the
ascent of genetically modied crops.
Patenting Life will appeal to readers interested in
science and technology and also those interested in
laws promoting innovation.
JORGE GOLDSTEIN is a patent attorney trained in molecular biology who
began his career on the ground floor of the biotechnology revolution forty
years ago. He is a partner in Sterne, Kessler, Goldstein, and Fox, PLLC,
and the author of the casebook US Biotechnology Patent Law (2023).
He received a PhD in chemistry from Harvard University and a JD from
George Washington University Law School.
“A dean of the biotechnology patent
bar and a brilliant practitioner, it is
not surprising that Jorge could write

reads more like a novel.”

Q&A WITH THE AUTHOR
Why did you write this book?
I wanted to write a book explaining the patent
system with all of its positive and negative
aspects. e patent system has been created to
achieve a delicate equilibrium of public and
private interests. I agree that a balanced and
well-controlled patent system is crucial for
generating innovation in the private sector.
But if the balance is not maintained or the system
is gamed, bad practices emerge. I hope to convey
the idea that we must keep a careful watch over
the patent system to prevent it from getting out
of balance.
You have already written one of the classic casebooks used in US biotechnology
patent law. How did you approach writing The Patenting Life for a very dierent
audience of non-expert readers?
As a patent attorney in biotechnology, I am used to simplifying complicated technical
things to judges, who may not have specialized scientic or technical knowledge. I
have also spent a great deal of my career explaining to scientists aspects of the law
with which they are not familiar. And I have discussed law and science with business
executives, journalists, or investors who have little familiarity with either. is
training forced me to think about similes and metaphors that make the subjects more
approachable to folks who are neither familiar with nor wish to learn the scientic or
legal jargons. Applying my decades-long experience into writing this book has allowed
to me to think of new, and in some cases, more sophisticated ways of explaining
complex things to educated and curious readers.
What does the future look like for commercial biology?
While, for the most part, universities continue being the source of our knowledge of
fundamental biology, the practical applications of their research are developed by
private companies that are willing to invest on risky ideas. ese companies expect
that the patent system will give them a few years of exclusivity during which to
moderate the risk, recoup their investments, and turn a prot. As a consequence,
remarkable medicines for cancer, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors, continue
being invented through the understanding we have gained of how the human
immunological system works. e future for commercial biology is bright and
unstoppable.

A UNIQUE INSIDERS’ ACCOUNT OF WHAT CIA INTELLIGENCE
ANALYSTS DO AND WHY IT MATTERS
e common perception of a CIA ocer is
someone who collects secret intelligence abroad—a
spy. However, the critical link between secrets and

Analyst brings to light the vital, but often-unseen,
work of these ocers.
Roger Z. George, Robert Levine, and the
contributors to this book demystify the profession of
intelligence analyst at the CIA and describe how the
wide array of analytic specialties—or “disciplines” in
the language of the CIA—function. e disciplines
range from political, economic, leadership, and
military matters to science and technology, cyber,
counterterrorism, and counterintelligence. Each of
the chapters—written by former or current CIA
analysts—discusses how analysts interact with those
who collect raw intelligence. Just as important, the
chapters describe the relationships analysts develop
with the diverse set of policymakers who use CIA
analyses. e contributors reveal the key intelligence
questions that analysts address, their methods, their
products, and their challenges.
is book will be an invaluable resource for
scholars of national security and intelligence who
want to develop a fuller picture of the internal work-
ings of the CIA and for those who are considering a
career as an analyst.
ROGER Z. GEORGE had a 30-year career as a political-military analyst at the

Watching the Jackals
Prague’s Covert Liaisons with Cold War
Terrorists and Revolutionaries
DANIELA RICHTEROVA
Foreword by Christopher Andrew
THE UNTOLD HISTORY OF CZECHOSLOVAKIA’S COMPLEX
RELATIONS WITH MIDDLE EASTERN TERRORISTS AND
REVOLUTIONARIES DURING THE CLOSING DECADES OF THE
COLD WAR
In the s and s, Prague became a favorite
destination for the world’s most prominent terrorists
and revolutionaries. ey arrived here to seek refuge,
enjoy recreation, or hold secret meetings aimed at
securing training, arms, and other forms of support.
While some were welcomed with open arms, others
were closely watched and were eventually ousted.
Watching the Jackals is the untold history of
Czechoslovakia’s complex relations with Middle
Eastern terrorists and revolutionaries during the
closing decades of the Cold War. Based on recently
declassied intelligence les, Richterova unveils
the story of Prague’s engagement with various
factions of the Palestine Liberation Organization,
along with some of the era’s most infamous
terrorists, including Carlos the Jackal, the Munich
Olympics massacre commander Abu Daoud, and
the Abu Nidal Organization. In this gripping
account, Richterova explains why “Cold War Jackals”
gravitated toward Prague and how the country’s
leaders reacted to their visits.
Drawing on interviews and remarkably detailed
records from the former Czechoslovakia (now
the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic),
Richterova oers readers interested in the intel-
ligence world a fascinating account of how states
use their spies to pursue covert policies with violent
nonstate actors.
DANIELA RICHTEROVA is an associate professor in the Department of War
Studies at King’s College London. She regularly publishes in leading academic
and media outlets, including International Affairs and Foreign Policy.
“Based on multi-archive research, this
important book shows that several pre-
1989 international terrorists traveled
to communist Czechoslovakia, closely
watched by its special services. Dr.
Richterova’s definitive work reveals the
nuanced and complex support that a
Soviet bloc state provided to several
nefarious actors sworn to destroy
Western democracies.”

Castle on a Hill
e Visegrad Group, Regionalism, and the
Remaking of Europe
RICK FAWN
THIS RECASTING OF MODERN EUROPEAN HISTORY
OFFERS NEW INSIGHTS INTO THE VISEGRAD GROUP’S
SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN CHANGING POLITICAL MINDSETS AND
REFASHIONING THE CONTINENT
Rick Fawn has written the rst book-length
account of the Visegrad Group of states, which
consists of the Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic,
Poland, and Hungary. Named after Hungary’s
Visegrád Castle, the group’s signicance includes
changing international perceptions of Central
Europe since the fall of communism and secur-
ing membership in NATO and the European
Community. It plays an ongoing role today in
regional solidarity and politics within the European
Union and NATO.
Castle on a Hill is built on years of uniquely
obtained oral and written sources and on the
author’s sustained engagement in this region. Fawn
examines Visegrad’s origins and major accomplish-
ments and what makes it a unique regional orga-
nization. In addition to its positive contributions,
Fawn identies Visegrad’s weaknesses, oversteps,
and missteps, including its controversial propulsion
to international fame for successfully derailing the
European Union’s plans to resettle non-Europeans
during the “migrant crisis.” is book also oers
insights for the wider study of the phenomenon of
regionalism in international relations.
Castle on a Hill shows how the Visegrad Group
has changed Central Europe, largely for the better,
and it will appeal to scholars and policymakers inter-
ested in international politics, European history, and
the study of regions and regionalism in international
relations.
RICK FAWN is a professor of international relations at the University of St.
Andrews and the author or editor of several books, including The Czech
Republic: A Nation of Velvet (2000) and International Organizations and
Internal Conditionality: Making Norms Matter (2013).
“This book’s significant analysis of
Central Europe’s return to wider Europe
peacefully—reinforced over post–Cold
War decades by Visegrad’s eorts—oers
crucial insights into the heart of Europe
about path-breaking triumphs amid
continuing challenges.”

Soft Power beyond the Nation
SYLVIA DUMMER SCHEEL, CHARLOTTE
FAUCHER, AND CAMILA GATICA MIZALA,
EDITORS
AN INNOVATIVE, INTERDISCIPLINARY PERSPECTIVE ON SOFT
POWER IN HISTORY, MOVING BEYOND THE FRAMEWORK OF
THE NATIONSTATE
Starting in the nineteenth century, as world
events became more interconnected than ever, and
as public opinion began to weigh on democratic
governments, nations employed new communication
strategies and propaganda to gain global inuence
and prestige. Soft power strategies were used by
dierent nation-states, and by supranational and
nonstate actors, that wanted to gain inuence on the
international stage.
Soft Power beyond the Nation takes a distinct
approach to the study of soft power in history,
moving beyond the framework of the nation-state.
e volume editors use “soft power” to refer to the
processes through which persuasion, the search for
inuence and power, and public opinion converge
in the international arena. e book is organized on
the basis of three central themes: the transnational
circulation of knowledge and strategies of public
diplomacy across borders, the collaboration of
intermediary actors of soft power whose interests
did not always coincide with those of the state, and
the role played by nonnational identities, such as
gender and race, in soft power.
Soft Power beyond the Nation enriches the
historiographical study of soft power, broadening
its temporal and spatial scope and refreshing it with
new perspectives on transnationalism, gender, and
race. is book will be of interest to scholars and
students of history and international relations.
SYLVIA DUMMER SCHEEL is an assistant adjunct professor in the history
department and the School of Design at the Pontificia Universidad Católica
de Chile.
CHARLOTTE FAUCHER is a lecturer in modern French history at the
University of Bristol.
CAMILA GATICA MIZALA is an assistant professor in the Universidad de
Chile’s History Department.
“Charting a new course for the study
of soft power across centuries and
continents, this fascinating collection
develops new tools to analyze new
chronologies and new actors. The editors
expand our horizons with a reading of soft
power that takes us far beyond the Cold
War and the nation state.”

A NEW COMMUNITYBASED FRAMEWORK ASSESSING
THE IMPACT OF PARTICIPATORY GRANTMAKING ON
PHILANTHROPY
Institutional foundations are inuential, yet it can
be dicult to understand how they operate. One
practice that holds promise for demystifying this
relationship is participatory grantmaking, whereby
stakeholders and grantees participate in making
decisions about grant dollars that were previously
reserved for professional foundation sta.
e community-based case studies in
Participatory Grantmaking in Philanthropy
signal a cultural shift away from the power of
elite institutions and their penchant for top-down
decision-making. is book combines perspectives
from academics and practitioners who address how
participatory grantmaking relates to other features
of contemporary giving.
Using in-depth case studies, quantitative research,
and other evidence-based methods of exploration,
Participatory Grantmaking in Philanthropy will be
a strong resource for philanthropy practitioners
not only at the community level but also at large
institutional foundations.

e Moral Vision of Pope Francis
Expanding the US Reception of the
First Jesuit Pope
CONOR M. KELLY AND KRISTIN E. HEYER,
EDITORS
A THOUGHTFUL REFLECTION ON HOW THE “FRANCIS
REVOLUTION” CAN ADDRESS THE PRACTICAL CONCERNS
OF ORDINARY CATHOLICS ON A RANGE OF CONTEMPORARY
ISSUES
e papacy of Pope Francis has ushered in
remarkable changes for the Roman Catholic
Church. From a new emphasis on collegiality in
ecclesial governance to a transformed set of public
priorities for the global Church, Francis’s unique
model of pontical leadership has far-reaching
implications for virtually every aspect of Catholic
practice. Catholic moral theology—particularly in
the United States—has still not grappled fully with
the emphases of Francis’s ponticate.
To address this lacuna, e Moral Vision of Pope
Francis brings together a range of Catholic ethicists
to reect on Pope Francis’s implicit approach to
moral theology, establishing the unique insights
of this rst Jesuit pope. is evaluation of Pope
Francis’s teachings and actions draws out the moral
vision animating his work and demonstrates how
his moral vision should apply to Catholic ethical
reection on a range of contemporary issues.
e Moral Vision of Pope Francis shows how the
“Francis revolution” meaningfully addresses the
practical concerns of Catholics in the United States.
CONOR M. KELLY is an associate professor in the Department of Theology
at Marquette University. He is the author of Racism and Structural Sin:
Confronting Injustice with the Eyes of Faith (2023) and The Fullness of Free

Across Borders: A Christian Ethic of Immigration (Georgetown University
Press, 2012).
“An important contribution to Catholic
theology and ethics, this book brings
together scholars who are committed to
engaging Francis with honesty and clarity.
Their conclusions are both constructive
and hopeful. It will certainly generate
fruitful public discussion as we enter the
messiness of a synodal process in the
global Church.”

High-Impact Leadership in Catholic
Education
JUDITH A. DWYER
A GUIDE TO THE HIGHIMPACT LEADERSHIP THAT IS
ESSENTIAL FOR REALIZING SUCCESSFUL, VIBRANT CATHOLIC
K12 SCHOOLS, COLLEGES, AND UNIVERSITIES
Recent studies by educational organizations, such
as the National Association of Independent Schools,
have found that aspiring leaders believe they lack
preparation in areas such as nancial planning and
fundraising, human resource and legal issues, trustee
governance, risk management, and addressing
polarization within their school community.
High-Impact Leadership in Catholic Education
proposes that contemporary Catholic K-, college,
and university leaders embrace a fundamental,
high-impact approach to all aspects of the academic
organization. is high-impact model examines the
centrality of the Catholic mission; the strategic plan
as an institutional road map; steps to foster a safe,
vibrant community with a nancially sound future;
the critical importance of risk assessment and crisis
management; the unique role of trustees; and the
qualities that characterize high-impact leadership.
On the basis of Dwyer’s extensive experience in
teaching and administration in American Catholic
universities and independent schools, each chapter
also includes critical questions for reection and a
pertinent case study.
is book is aimed at leaders in Catholic educa-
tion at K- and higher education levels. It will be
particularly interesting to administrators of Catholic
institutions who aspire to be presidents, principals,
heads of school, and senior leaders.
JUDITH A. DWYER has served as head of school at the Academy of Notre
Dame de Namur (2014–21), president of Saint Xavier University (2003-9), and
executive vice president and chief operating officer at the University of St.
Thomas (1998–2003). She has contributed to and edited a number of books,
including The Challenge of Peace (Georgetown University Press, 1984),
Questions of Special Urgency (Georgetown University Press, 1986), The New
Dictionary of Catholic Social Thought (1994), and Ethical Viewpoints in the
Catholic Tradition (Georgetown University Press, 1999).
“Dwyer is at once circumspect,
aspirational, and artful. She represents
the essential strategies of Catholic school
leadership, propels such institutions
toward the ideals of their identity, and
balances and blends the needs and
interests of Catholic schooling across its
wide range of administrative levels. For
Catholic educational leaders, this book is
a tool kit of necessary tactics for attaining
both authenticity and excellence.”

Art and Moral Change
A Reexamination
KI JOO CHOI
A FIRSTOFITSKIND CRITICAL OVERVIEW OF HOW ART
LEADS TO MORAL ACTION IN THE FIELD OF THEOLOGICAL
ETHICS
One question that remains insuciently
addressed in theological ethics is the question of
how art leads to moral action. While many modern-
ist theories consider art to be a morally irrelevant
activity, others think that the arts, and the emotions
they elicit, are integral to moral formation and
justice. Challenging both kinds of theories, Art and
Moral Change proposes that art is essential because it
is an inevitable source of moral disagreement.
Drawing on the work of Jonathan Edwards and
many others in theology, philosophy, and literary
studies, Art and Moral Change argues that the arts
are the cultural mediums through which we can
better understand what is morally possible in the
midst of dierence. e arts, in other words, can
serve as snapshots of a particular community’s
perspectives on the good life, oering glimpses not
only of competing moral visions within society but
also of the extent to which these contested moral
views are reconcilable. us, the arts reveal the limits
of moral reasoning, conrm the contextuality of
moral discernment, and necessitate moral thinking
that is dialogical and dialectical.
Art and Moral Change provides a rst-of-its-kind
critical overview of how the eld of theological eth-
ics approaches and should utilize aesthetics. e core
premise—that paying attention to art encourages
us to appreciate the ethical importance of disagree-
ment, dierence, and conict—will foster greater
understanding of aesthetics and ethics for students
and scholars of theological, social, and virtue ethics.
KI JOO CHOI teaches Asian American theology and Christian ethics at
Princeton Theological Seminary. His publications include Disciplined by Race:
Theological Ethics and the Problem of Asian American Identity (2019). He is
the coeditor of the Journal of the Society of Christian Ethics.
“Much contemporary moral philosophy
and theology assumes some relation
between aesthetics and ethics without
carefully explicating what it is. Choi has
remedied any such deficiency by carefully
and judiciously assessing how art does
and does not transform moral agents.
Art and Moral Change is a beautiful work
enhancing our understanding
of goodness.”

University Professor of Ethics, Southern
Methodist University

their knowledge. Chapters focus on core linguistic
disciplines—such as phonetics, phonology, mor-
phology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, and social
history; include numerous activities to reinforce key
concepts; and contain more complicated capstone
problemas for practice. Instructors have access to
answer keys for these activities as well as sample
quizzes and PowerPoint presentations for each
chapter. Instructors can easily expand on any of the

Dialect Contact
From Speaker to Community-Based Perspectives
VICTOR FERNÁNDEZMALLAT AND
JENNIFER NYCZ, EDITORS
NEW RESEARCH EXPANDS THE LINGUISTIC UNDERSTANDING
OF DIALECT CONTACT IN SPECIFIC COMMUNITIES AND
INDIVIDUALS
Dialect contact occurs whenever speakers of
mutually intelligible language varieties interact.
Many linguists are interested in the outcome of
such contact—how it leads people and languages to
vary and change, and what such patterns can reveal
about language, mind, and society. Dialect contact
can thus be approached as an individual-level or a
community-level phenomenon; a cognitive process
or a social one.
In Dialect Contact, international contributors
present studies touching on both perspectives,
representing languages and varieties spanning ve
continents. e chapters shed light on the many
factors inuencing dialect change and highlight the
importance of considering the contact dynamics that
are specic to individual people and communities.
is book will benet sociolinguistics scholars
and students interested in the outcomes of dialect
contact, the implications of contact for understand-
ing language change, and the various methods used
to investigate contact eects in individuals and
communities.

AN ACCESSIBLE GRAMMAR REFERENCE GUIDE FOR LEARNERS
OF LEVANTINE ARABIC AT ALL LEVELS
A Learner’s Grammar of Levantine Arabic is a
comprehensive guide to the grammatical structures
and rules of the Arabic varieties spoken in the
Levant region, such as Palestinian, Syrian, Jordanian,
and Lebanese. is book is suitable for beginners
through more advanced levels, and it is the rst to
present North and South Levantine varieties side
by side, allowing learners and linguists to compare
them with each other and with other varieties of
spoken Arabic.
Hitchcock groups major grammatical concepts
together, making it easy to nd information quickly,
and he provides easy-to-understand explanations.
e book includes extensive appendixes, with verb
charts, prepositions, and conjunctions. Copious
examples of native speaker usage—culled from
newspapers, television programs, and more—are
provided for each concept, helping learners
understand how to apply the concepts to their own
communications outside the classroom.
CHRIS HITCHCOCK is a freelance translator, interpreter, and researcher who
has lived and worked in the Middle East. He also maintains the website Team
Maha, a blog for learning Syrian Arabic.
ELIAS SHAKKOUR directs the Translator and Interpreter Corps at DePaul
University and is a certified translator of Arabic, Dutch, French, German,
Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish.
“A remarkable achievement in the field
of Arabic language pedagogy. This
book oers a comprehensive, clear,
and accessible introduction to the
grammatical structures and rules of
Levantine Arabic dialects spoken in
Palestine, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon.
An essential resource.”

El-Mumtaaz
Contemporary Beginning Egyptian Arabic
MAHMOUD AZAZ AND AYMAN MOHAMED
A RESEARCHBASED APPROACH TO LEARNING BEGINNER
LEVEL CONTEMPORARY EGYPTIAN ARABIC THAT PUTS
CULTURE UP FRONT
El-Mumtaaz provides learners new to Egyptian
Arabic (EA) with the keys to understanding and
speaking the language while also developing their
facility to understand EA as written online. With
relevant themes, humorous dialogues about contem-
porary life, thematic vocabulary, and lots of Egyptian
culture and pragmatics, Mahmoud Azaz and Ayman
Mohamed have built each chapter around ACTFL’s
world readiness standards, ensuring mastery of
one of the most widely spoken varieties of Arabic.
Partner and group activities and easy-to-follow
grammar explanations give learners every tool for
mastery. Robust culture sections, using memes and
jokes to teach pragmatics, round out each chapter.
Covering topics that include introductions and
greetings, family, the daily and weekly routine,
friends and colleagues, education, food, weather,
errands, vacations and going out, clothes and
shopping, and living arrangements, learners should
reach Intermediate-Low after completing their
work. e book includes free streaming audio and
video (available on the publisher’s website) for many
opportunities for listening and practicing Egyptian
Arabic. e lessons not only encourage language
and culture learning but also create authentic
connections with Egyptian speakers in the learners’
communities.
El-Mumtaaz can be used alongside textbooks
either teaching Modern Standard Arabic alone or
teaching the integrated method, as well as on its
own in a course focused on Egyptian Arabic.
MAHMOUD AZAZ is a University of Arizona Distinguished Fellow and teaches
SLA and pedagogy courses in various departments. He focuses on linguistic
approaches to Arabic SLA, Arabic pedagogy, and sociolinguistics.
AYMAN MOHAMED is an assistant professor at Michigan State University,
where he teaches all levels of Arabic, including the Egyptian dialect.
His research interests include task-based learning and incidental
vocabulary acquisition.
“A lively, thorough, and fun addition to
the books on modern Egyptian Arabic,
El-Mumtaaz stands out for its alignment
with the ACTFL guidelines and 5 C’s,
its assessment rubrics, its integration of
video, pragmatics, and Egyptian humor,
and its attention to the nascent Masri
orthography. Mumtaaz ya Mumtaaz!”
