Often what passes for love is a product of self-deception and wishful thinking. Genuine love, according to philosopher Caroline J. Simon, must be based on knowledge of reality, and Christianity affirms that reality includes not just who people are but the unfolding story of who God intends them to be. Taking the use of narrative seriously, The Disciplined Heart draws on works of literature to display a Christian understanding of love in its various forms: love of self, love of neighbor, friendship, romantic love, and marital love. Using instances of love and its counterfeits in novels and short stories by such authors as Flannery O'Connor, Leo Tolstoy, George Eliot, and F. Scott Fitzgerald, Simon constructs an account of love's joys and obligations that both charms and instructs. Learned, astute, and elegantly written, The Disciplined Heart is a groundbreaking work at the intersection of theology, philosophy, and literary analysis.

This illustrated history of the Indiana University-Bloomington School of Education tells the dynamic, 100-year old story of the state’s leading research and teacher education institution. The dynamic story begins with the founding of Indiana University in 1820. Against great odds, Indiana University’s School of Education advanced from a handful of students and professors in the early nineteenth century to one of the top schools of education. As a one-hundredth anniversary volume, the book shifts to 1923 when the School was authorized to award its own degree. From its first research publication, first doctoral degree, and the opening of a laboratory school in 1938, the School grew rapidly. The return of servicemen and women from World War II on the G.I. Bill filled classrooms and brought significant expansion to teacher education. Likewise, the National Defense Education Act of 1958 extended the School’s counseling and guidance programs. International programs flourished, development of educational technology became a national trendsetter, and from 1958 to 1973 the School operated 29 research centers and institutes. Teacher education anchored enrollment at IU’s regional campuses. By the early 1990s, the School had a new home in a national demonstration site for technology in education. The last thirty years have witnessed significant growth in every aspect of the School’s portfolio – state, national, and international service, research, teaching, diversity, and inclusion. IU’s first all-online doctoral program launched in 2011 in instructional systems technology. A living-learning center for teacher education students opened in 2014. In 2020 the School celebrated 50 years of its Global Gateway for Teachers, placing student teachers in 21 countries, the Navajo Nation, and an urban program in Chicago. Looking back on its one hundred years, the School has turned adversity into a thriving institution providing Indiana and the world with outstanding teachers, counselors, educational leaders, and ground-breaking research.

"Impossible to put down. It haunts me still.” -Alex Marzano-Lesnevich, author of The Fact of a Body: A Murder and a Memoir A riveting, deeply personal exploration of the opioid crisis-an empathic memoir infused with hints of true crime. In November 2013, Rose Andersen's younger sister Sarah died of an overdose in the bathroom of her boyfriend's home in a small town with one of the highest rates of opioid use in the state. Like too many of her generation, she had become addicted to heroin. Sarah was 24 years old. To imagine her way into Sarah's life, Rose revisits their volatile childhood, marked by their stepfather's omnipresent rage and their father's pathological lying. As the dysfunction comes into focus, so does a broader picture of the opioid crisis and the drug rehabilitation industry in small towns across America. And when Rose learns from the coroner that Sarah's cause of death was a methamphetamine overdose, the story takes a wildly unexpected turn. As Andersen sifts through her sister's last days, we come to recognize the contours of grief and its aftermath: the psychic shattering which can turn to anger, the pursuit of an ever-elusive verdict, and the intensely personal rites of imagination and art needed to actually move on. Reminiscent of Alex Marzano-Lesnevich's The Fact of a Body, Maggie Nelson's Jane: A Murder, and Lacy M. Johnson's The Other Side, Andersen's debut is a potent, profoundly original journey into and out of loss.
