This book is volume II of a planned three volume book plus supplementary website, www.bookabout books.com, which will present some books and subjects not contained in the books. A Book about Books discusses what nonfiction books and subjects the author believes are important to know about. Volume I is available from the same booksellers as this volume. Volume III will take several years before it is available. E.H. Bernstein is a former librarian turned author. The subtitle of the book describes the author's objective: "A handbook in three volumes to a choice of essential books, writers and subjects in order to understand the world we live in, about 'big questions' and possible answers, about books and writers that may improve people's lives, about neglected writers, and other books and subjects." A Book about Books attempts to share what the author has learned from nearly 50 years of nonfiction reading and to provide the reader with samples of the most important authors and subjects from that reading. While the book is based on research, it is intended to be a handbook or guide by trying to make that research understandable to the general reader and to students, and for teachers--by pointing to what the author believes is missing from today's education. A curriculum proposal for college teachers is on the website. Note about how the volumes are related: each chapter is on a separate subject. So the chapters can be read individually, but the full message requires reading all the volumes. Volume I is important, but preliminary to the more important Volumes II and III. Note also that the book is not just about books, since other sources are also mentioned. This book tries to point to problems in how we live and to see if books have any answers. Note that the author believes we should listen to many voices, so the book draws on many types of writers from different times and countries. A contemporary writer once said that one of the purposes of writing is that books should be useful. I hope that my book will be of use.

This book is part I of III. Only the first part is finished at this time. As the other parts are finished, I will try to publish them. The title and subtitle of this book explain what I want this book to be about, but perhaps there are a few insights I can add. There used to be a PBS television program called the Eleventh Hour, where well-known and lesser known persons who had reached a certain age were given a chance to make a statement, perhaps their final statement, in the form of a lecture from a podium. I feel like this book and its subsequent parts will be my statement. A second and equally important purpose is to try to make a difference. Sometimes there are books that I have only heard about or about which I know only a little. Roger Rosenblatt's book about writing, Unless It Moves the Human Heart, is one such book. He was interviewed on PBS TV by their arts correspondent Jeffrey Brown. This is what Roger said about what writing should be, and I have always remembered it: "To make suffering endurable, to make evil intelligible, to make justice desirable, to make love possible, and ultimately to be useful to the world, and to make the world better." There are also other literary gems in the interview. Finally, another fragment of a book that I have seen is from Richard Rodriguez's autobiographical book, Hunger of Memory, in which he describes his first encounter with books in school, his struggle to make sense of them, and what use to make of them. That particular excerpt also appears in Life Studies: A Thematic Reader (third edition) edited by David Cavitch. I want to share as much as I can of what I've learned from almost fifty years of reading (there will be more reading) certain kinds of books. I hope my book will be of use.
