Kern ends his volume with copious notes and a thorough bibliography,. Parents and teachers will find his book useful in discussing Rowling''s popular novels with young people. Janet Julian, Grafton, MA Online intelligence service Hitwise has reported that a live web cast with J K Rowling - the author of the Harry Potter series of books - assisted the web site that it was hosted on to increase its ranking by 1,200 places.

Internet measurement company Hitwise claims that traffic to http://www.amazon.co.uk has increased by 49% in just under three weeks while the online book retailing sector has seen similar growth of 40%. Traffic has also increased to the official Harry Potter web site at http://www.harrypotter.com by over 70%. Kern, an associate professor of history at Lawrence University, has written this for adults as well as YAs. His thesis is that Rowling''s novels present an "updated Stoic moral system whose primary virtue is old-fashioned constancy--resolution in the face of adversity." Kern''s five chapters are: "Imaginatively Updating and Old-Fashioned Virtue"; "Plot Threads and Moral Fibers"; "Harry Potter''s Morality on Display"; "Greed, Conventionality, Demonic Threat"; and "Imagination, History, Legend, and Myth." An afterword deals with Rowling''s latest book, The Order of the Phoenix, which was published just as Kern''s was going to press.

An ALA Booklist Editors'' Choice, this is an amazing collection of facts on a wide variety of subjects that explains how magic really works. Roger Highfield, science editor of The Daily Telegraph, contacted more than 100 scientists from around the world, then divided the resulting information into two parts--the "how to" issues and the origins of magical thinking. Part One covers such topics as time travel, antigravity, magnets and levitating frogs, wormholes, teleportation, hallucinogens, invisibility, clothes that clean themselves, game theory, the world of owls, and how to make giants like Hagrid. Part Two begins with the history of magic and deals with the tragic state of the Muggle mind, confused by fossils, superstitions, delusions, illusions, and hallucinations. Wizards and witches of history and the talents of stage magicians are exposed. Potions ancient and modern help Muggles. And Albus Dumbledore may be modeled on John Dee, the occultist and adviser to Queen Elizabeth I. The book contains references, a glossary worth reading, and an index. The science is daunting and detailed, appropriate for savvy older teens and adults. Janet Julian, Grafton, MA Online retailer Amazon.co.uk has reported an increase in the volume of traffic visiting its web site due to the release of the latest Harry Potter book.
