In this age of anxious preoccupation with cozy feelings, the formidable power of Evil is usually overlooked or trivialized. In FACING EVIL some of the most penetrating communicators of our time turn their attention to the dark side of the human psyche. They speak from the heart about mass murder, racial discrimination, war, and nastiness both personal and institutional. They explore ways to confront Evil and perhaps transform it into Good. In the end they ask: What is to be done? FACING EVIL contains the proceedings of the famous symposium at Salado, Texas, subject of the Bill Moyers PBS special, 'Facing Evil'.

HUBER THE TUBER is an imaginary tubercle bacillus whose adventures in Lungland are described and pictured in this book. Employing the use of numerous illustrations, the author has pictured as well as described a story of tuberculosis. Each of Huber’s adventures—including meeting his wife in a joint (a bar and nightclub)—tell some important details about tuberculosis. In addition to a narrative describing Huber’s escapades, his fight with the Home Guard Army and Corpuscle Nelson, his narrow escape from the Phagocyte Shark, there is a short scientific interpretation quite separate from the story. Huber the Tuber, Nasty von Sputum, and Rusty the Bloodyvitch are all finally rounded up by Corpuscle Lipsky and his mechanized Army. Huber’s idyllic but ill-fated romance with Bovy only proves the well-known and indisputable fact that Love is Blind.“This is a must book for everyone”—Science News Letter“Dr. Wilmer has made a story of ‘Huber the Tuber’ both educational and hilarious. I not only enjoyed it very much, but learned a good deal from it. I certainly would recommend it for light reading and serious education.”—John Kieran“Ingeniously the author has made the acquisition of basic information about tuberculosis painless and exciting. It is in the best tradition of modern health education.”—Morris Fishbein, M.D., Editor, Journal of the American Medical Association“The humorous adventures of ‘Huber the Tuber’ will fascinate lay and medical readers. Wilmer’s clever drawings make the pathology of tuberculosis a joy to investigate and impossible to forget.”—Leroy U. Gardner, M.D., Director, The Saranac Laboratory, Saranac Lake, New York

From slavery to the Holocaust to the destruction of the World Trade Center, the specter of human evil continues to haunt and defy all attempts at explanation. This collection of lectures - given at a symposium on evil by prominent scholars, writers, theologians and philosophers - resonates powerfully as we continue to confront the devastation wrought by even a single individual caught in the grip of evil.
