Summary:MUSIC In this revised edition of his 2011 work, Vogel (Merrimack Coll., MA; This Thing Called Life: Prince, Race, Sex, Religion, and Music) offers an intelligent, song-by-song exploration of Michael Jackson's (1958–2009) albums, from the concepts, musical content, lyrics, arrangements, and influences to behind-the-scenes stories of the many people and events integral to each project. REL True Virtue is the dharma name of author Laity, the first Western monastic disciple of renowned Vietnamese Zen Buddhist monk, peace advocate, and founder of the Plum Village monastery Thich Nhat Hanh. SPORTS Written for an academic audience, this ambitious, thoroughly researched volume by White (history, Dartmouth Coll.) is a biography of Hall of Fame college coach Jake Gaither (1903–94), a chronicle of football history of his institution, Florida A&M, and, more broadly, of college football at historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs). A major point here is that the push for equality and integration was a double-edged sword that came with a price; the success of the civil rights movement decimated the thriving black-built institution of HBCU athletics that was particularly attuned to the needs of black students.
