ALLEN, ARTHUR
THE FANTASTIC LABORATORY OF
DR. WEIGL: How Two Brave Scientists
Battled Typhus and Sabotaged the Nazis
Few diseases are more gruesome than typhus, which is
transmitted by body lice. The Nazis, who equated the
louse with “parasitic, subhuman” Jews, so feared the
disease that they granted special status to an eccentric Polish scientist named Rudolf Weigl, the only one
who could make an effective vaccine. In his laboratory, Weigl hid members of the intelligentsia from the Gestapo, turning it into an epicenter
of intellectual activity and resistance. Drawing on extensive research and
interviews with survivors, Arthur Allen tells a harrowing story of two brave
scientists, a Christian and a Jew, shattered by war, who put their training to
the best possible use, at the highest personal risk. Arthur Allen has written
for the NewYork Times Magazine, the Washington Post, The Atlantic, the Associated Press, Science, and Slate. His books include Vaccine: The Controversial
Story of Medicine’s Greatest Lifesaver.

BATTLES, MATTHEW
PALIMPSEST: A History of the Written Word
Born from the interplay of natural and cultural history, the seemingly
magical act of writing has continually expanded our consciousness. Portrayed in mythology either as a gift from heroes or as a curse from the
gods, it has been used as both an instrument of power and a channel of
the divine; a means of social bonding and of individual self-definition.
Celebrating the impulse to record, to invent, to make one’s mark, Matthew Battles reenchants the written word for all those susceptible to the
power and beauty of writing in all its forms. Matthew Battles is a program fellow at the Berkman Center of Harvard University, where he is
associate director of metaLAB, a research group exploring the bounds of
networked culture.

CHRISTENSEN, THOMAS
THE CHINA CHALLENGE: Shaping the Choices of
a Rising Power
While some see China as an inevitable superpower and have argued for
containment or even belligerence, China expert Thomas J. Christensen
argues that a prosperous and stable China brings great benefits to the
world economy. But should it choose to defy the current world order,
from which it benefits greatly, China could disrupt international progress
on terrorism, nuclear nonproliferation, global financial stability, and efforts
to mitigate climate change. Drawing on decades of experience, including
as deputy assistant secretary of state for East Asian and Pacific affairs from
2006 to 2008, Christensen offers a deep perspective on China’s capacity,
political outlook, and strategic goals. Thomas J. Christensen is the William
B. Boswell Professor of World Politics at Princeton University and the

COHEN, ANDREW WENDER
CONTRABAND: Smuggling and the Birth of the
American Century
Since the Revolution, smuggling had tested the patriotism of the American people. Distrusting foreign goods, Congress instituted high tariffs
making the customhouse the nation’s protector. It waged a “war on smuggling,” inspecting every traveler for illicitly imported silk, opium, tobacco,
sugar, diamonds, and art. The Civil War’s blockade of the Confederacy
heightened the obsession with contraband, but smuggling entered its
prime during the Gilded Age, when characters like assassin Louis Bieral,
economist “The Parsee Merchant,” Congressman Ben Butler, and actress
Rose Eytinge clashed on the nation’s borders. Andrew Wender Cohen is
associate professor of history at Syracuse University.

DARNTON, ROBERT
CENSORS AT WORK: How States
Shaped Literature
Robert Darnton illuminates three eras in which
censorship shaped literary expression. In eighteenthcentury France, censors navigated the intricacies
of royal privilege in a working collaboration with
authors and booksellers on the making of literature.
In nineteenth-century India, the efforts of the British Raj to control “native” literature gave voice to an Indian opposition
that exposed the tensions between Britain’s liberal principles and imperial
power. And in twentieth-century East Germany, the Communist Party’s
attempt to engineer literature actually yielded a range of outcomes from
brutal repression to some of the best-known works by German authors.
Censorship emerges not as a simple repression that is everywhere the
same but as a melding of power and culture grounded in history. Robert
Darnton is the Carl H. Pforzheimer University Professor and director
of the University Library at Harvard University. His honors include a
MacArthur Fellowship, the National Humanities Medal, and election to
the French Legion of Honor.

GEORGE FRIDERIC HANDEL: A
Life with Friends
During Handel’s lifetime, the sounds of his music
reached from court to theater, echoed in cathedrals,
and filled crowded taverns. But the man himself—
known to most as the composer of Messiah—is a bit
of a mystery. In search of the private man behind the
public persona, Ellen T. Harris has tracked down letters, diaries, financial accounts, court cases, and other documents connected with the composer’s closest friends. The result is a tightly woven
tapestry of London life in the first half of the eighteenth century, one that
weaves together vibrant descriptions of Handel’s music with stories of loyalty, cunning, and betrayal. Ellen T. Harris is a professor emeritus at MIT.
She has spoken at Lincoln Center, appeared on PBS’s NewsHour and BBC

WRITING HISTORY IN THE

George Orwell may have written that “history is

whether it can reinvigorate the telling of history. In tandem, she proposes
a sweeping reevaluation of individuals’ agency and their place in society as
the keys to understanding the way people and ideas interact. Lynn Hunt

MIDNIGHT AT THE PERA PALACE:
