...what haunts me equally about Nachtwey's work is how strikingly beautiful all these photographs are, and I'm not talking about beauty in some sick voyeuristic sense. The book itself is huge and heavy, with thick paper stock and stylish layout. Moreover, the photographs are finely printed and composed with an infallible eye for human misery: few of us could ever imagine the horrors that Nachtwey's subjects have seen, but he is a virtuoso at evoking pity.

Moms-to-be will be flaunting their figures this Mother's Day. Emboldened by the stylish look of pregnant celebrities like Annette Bening and Cindy Crawford, body-conscious expectant mothers are clamoring for hip, clingy garb that will show off their burgeoning-but-still-sexy silhouettes.

Business is expanding quite nicely. Mothers Work, the world's largest...

Using what he calls "universal design," Riley shows how barrier-free living can be both easy and attractive...
...lost Details? In fairness, it was on the critical list before Golin. Under the editorship of James Truman--now editorial director of all Conde Nast magazines--Details enjoyed early-'90s acclaim as a stylish bible of the downtown club scene. But it floundered, changing editors like Polo boxer-briefs and redefining itself constantly, most recently as a pop-culture gazette with a dash of red-blooded...
