University of Baltimore professors from various departments &#8211; including Public Administration, Accounting, History, and Criminal Justice &#8211; were asked to recommend both new and classic titles. The titles and call numbers, along with short reviews, can be found featured on our in-library promotional posters throughout the library. Look for the signs that say &#8220;SURVEY SAYS&#8221;. In future semesters, we will feature recommendations from other faculty members in different disciplines. If you are a faculty member interested in contributing your recommendations for future book promotions, please contact Brian Chetelat at the Langsdale Library, (410) 837-4234 or email at <a href=\"mailto:bchetelat@ubalt.edu\">bchetelat@ubalt.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Here are our Fall 2006 recommendations:<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Kathleen Block<br \/>Undergraduate Program Director<br \/>Criminology, Criminal Justice &amp; Social Policy<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/catalog.umd.edu\/docno=000018712\">Causes of Delinquency<br \/><\/a>Hirschi, Travis<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/catalog.umd.edu\/docno=001864131\">The Cycle of Juvenile Justice<br \/><\/a>Bernard, Thomas<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/catalog.umd.edu\/docno=003237702\">But They All Come Back<\/a><br \/>Travis, Jeremy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Dr. Elizabeth Nix<br \/>Visiting Associate Professor<br \/>Legal, Ethical &amp; Historical Studies<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/catalog.umd.edu\/docno=003270890\">Forever Free<\/a><br \/>Foner, Eric<\/li>\n<li> <a href=\"http:\/\/catalog.umd.edu\/docno=003286939\">At Canaan&#8217;s Edge<br \/><\/a>Branch, Taylor<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/catalog.umd.edu\/docno=000199165\">Let Us Now Praise Famous Men<\/a><br \/>Agee, James &amp; Walker Evans<\/li>\n<li> <a href=\"http:\/\/catalog.umd.edu\/docno=003253418\">My Face Is Black Is True<\/a><br \/>Berry, Mary Frances<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Dr. Lorenda Naylor<br \/>Assistant Professor<br \/>School of Public Affairs<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/catalog.umd.edu\/docno=002872894\">Collaborative Public Management<br \/><\/a>Agranoff &amp; McGuire<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Dr. Susan Lynn<br \/>Associate Professor of Accounting<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/catalog.umd.edu\/docno=002660736\">Financial Shenanigans<br \/><\/a>Schilit, Howard<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/catalog.umd.edu\/docno=003199809\">Creative Cash Flow Reporting<br \/><\/a>Mulford &amp; Comiskey<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/catalog.umd.edu\/docno=003287478\">Enron: The Smartest Guys In The Room<\/a><br \/>dvd<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/catalog.umd.edu\/docno=002634815\">The Financial Numbers Game<br \/><\/a>Mulford &amp; Comiskey<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Dr. Heather Pfeifer<br \/>Assistant Professor, Graduate Program Director<br \/>Division of Criminology, Criminal Justice &amp; Social Policy<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/catalog.umd.edu\/docno=003288747\">The Crime Drop In America<br \/><\/a>Blumstein and Wallman<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/catalog.umd.edu\/docno=002587250\">Crime and The American Dream<br \/><\/a>Messner &amp; Richard Rosenfeld<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Would you like to sneak a peak at your favorite professor&#8217;s personal bookshelf?
