North Korea may be a small country, but it could prove a big problem in the not-too-distant future. This book is a must-read for anyone who cares about US national security." - Linda Chavez, radio talk show host and author. "Written with solid research from a soldier-scholar's perspective and sensitive feel for history, this book is replete with insights of Korean and Japanese culture, particularly as they pertain to current challenges on the Korean Peninsula." - General John Wickham, USA (retired) former Chief of Staff US Army and CINC in Korea. "In the rogue's gallery of terrorist states, North Korea occupies a darkly prominent place. Its membership in the 'axis of evil' is richly and dangerously deserved - and did not develop overnight. This book is indispensable to understanding how North Korea became one of the world's worst human rights violators and weapons proliferators - and how we should deal with this rogue, before it's too late." - Monica Crowley, PhD, Fox News Channel. "Profocative, timely, and fiercely honest, Spearated at Birth methodically cuts the tradional 'wisdom' into tiny pieces. Deeply informed and highly readable, this book is crucial to recognizing the most misunderstood danger in the world today." - Ralph Peters, author. "He stands five foot two in stocking feet. He adds two inches to his dumpy physique with elevated shoes. He has taken a country blessed with natural resources and an educated populace with a dedicated work ethic and reduced it to the level of the most abysmal third world pesthole. He has assassinnated foreign statesmen, blown up civilian airlines loaded with innocent passengers, and sold weapons to terrorists around the world. He is diverting resources that his country cannot spare to accelerate a program whereby he can become a nuclear power capable of peddling weapons of mass destruction to terrorist groups in return for hard cash. He has surrounded himself with sycophants and toadies, lives in hedonistic luxury, and threatens his neighbors and the world with nuclear weapons. Who is this strange person? Hi is Kim Jong-Il, aberrant ruler of the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea - or North Korea. The more we are able to crack the facade of North Korea the more we learn of the dark, repugnant secrets that have been held close for decades. Peering through the cracks, we are able to discern an implacable hatred for America, South Korrea, and other free nations. There were good and sufficient reasons for President George W. Bush to declare North Korea a charter member of the "Axis of Evil." Ambericans heard him and wondered: Just what is going on over there that makes it such a threat? Separated At Birth addresses those concerns, explores North Korea's twentieth-century history, its separation from South Korea, as well as its plae in the East and its relation to China, the U.S., and Japan. Cuccullu discusses our options, both military and diplomatic, and fills in some of the gaps in our knowledge so that we can be better prepared to deal with a nation easily described as a "rogue" one." - from the inner front jacket flap. "Candidly insighful, scholarly and blunt.The personal recollections and accounts of life in Korea, (from Koreans themselves), are moving and oft-times gut wrenching." - Robert Lennek, former FBI officer. Livingston, Kirsten (book design); Loiwski, Linda R. (jacket design); Lennek, Robert (author photograph) (illustratore).…

Summary:French artist Pierre-Paul Prud'hon (1758-1823) is best known as a painter of mythological and allegorical subjects that impressed his younger contemporaries Theodore Gericault and Eugene Delacroix. Fully as deserving of attention is a series of exquisite chalk studies - known as academies - that he made throughout his career. These drawings of male and female nudes - many of which have never before been published - are the focus of this beautiful and unique book. In his text, John Elderfield first discusses Prud'hon's life and work, examining the complexities and contradictions of his career and his singular place in the art of his time, including his role in the creation of the modern female nude. Then he considers the drawings themselves. Following the text are fifty-seven of Prud'hon's finest drawings - reproduced in full color - carefully selected and arranged by Robert Gordon to unfold in a visual display of gesture and form. The book concludes with the author's notes and a selected bibliography.…
