Adventures with a Historian

The Life and Times of John "Jack" R. Hubbard

By: John R Hubbard

Riveting. Fascinating reading providing unique historical, cultural, and global insights into major 20th Century events - Hitler's Youth, the Battles of Okinawa and Iwo Jima, the Cold War, the turbulent 70s, India's rising importance, the role of government in higher education - and more. A must read for anyone seeking to understand classical liberal arts' essential role in the development of exceptional communication, critical thinking, and analytical skills sought after by today's elite employers. --Dr. Michael J. Savoie, Dean, College of Technology and Computing, Utah Valley University Jack Hubbard's life reads like an adventure novel; a fast-paced history of a man and a country back when great men walked the Earth. --Steven R. Travers, author of The Duke, The Longhorns, and Chairman Mao Jack Hubbard was an important figure in Southern California. He was brilliant and funny and a great leader, and all that comes alive in this book. I loved the man, and I'm glad he will be remembered in these pages. --John Robinson, Head Football Coach (Retired), University of Southern California Dr. John R. "Jack" Hubbard's leadership inspired USC's rapid advance throughout the 1970s, and in those pivotal 10 years, the university completely transformed itself. --C. L. Max Nikias, President, University of Southern California Dr. Hubbard was a giant man who cared deeply about the education of his students. --Charles "Tree" Young, USC All-American Receiver, NFL (retired) Wonderful book! I love the Stanford band story and the post Missouri "jock" rally story. Jack hired me in 1970 and he was a good friend and supporter of the Trojan Marching Band. Jack, John Robinson, and Bob Fleur - all great Trojans - were a big part of the Trojan family. --Dr. Arthur C. Bartner, Director, University of Southern California Trojan Marching Band

A Social History of Christianity

North-west India since 1800

By: John C.B. Webster

The Christian community in India emerged from an Indian rather than a foreign or an imperial context. Its internal dynamics were shaped far more by Indian social realities than by missionary designs. This book presents a comprehensive social history of Christianity in north-west India, comprising Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, the Union Territories of Delhi and Chandigarh, and the Pakistani Punjab and North-West Frontier Province. The book discusses significant events in the history of the north-west up to 1947, after which it focuses only on India. These events left a lasting impact on Christianity and shaped its future course, culminating in the transfer of churches’ power from foreign missionaries to Indians and proliferation of churches, and the ongoing struggles of the Christian community. The author pays special attention to the Christian community’s caste composition—how caste status and social mobility affected intra- and inter-community relations—religious diversity, uneven demographic distribution, and development, as well as Christianity as a religious movement in the region.

Global Price Fixing

By: John M. Connor

This book describes and analyzes the formation, operation, and impacts of modern global cartels. It provides a broad picture of the economics, competition law and history of international price fixing. Intensive case studies of collusion in the markets for lysine, citric acid, and vitamins offer a deep, detailed understanding of the phenomenon. The author assesses whether antitrust enforcement by the European Union, the United States, and other countries can deter cartels.

Turfgrass

Biology, Use, and Management

By: John C. Stier,Brian P. Horgan,Stacy A. Bonos

Sustainability is a key framework for analyzing biological systems—and turfgrass is no exception. It is part of a complex that encompasses turfgrass interactions with different environments and the suitability of different turfgrasses for specific environments. In addition to its biological role, turfgrass—in the form of lawns, green spaces, and playing surfaces—brings beneficial sociological effects to an increasingly urbanized society. This book presents a comprehensive overview of current knowledge and issues in the field of turfgrass research and management, including the genetics and breeding, the diseases and pests, and the ecology of turfgrasses, and will appeal to a broad spectrum of readers.

Broken Movement

The Neurobiology of Motor Recovery after Stroke

By: John W. Krakauer,S. Thomas Carmichael

An account of the neurobiology of motor recovery in the arm and hand after stroke by two experts in the field. Stroke is a leading cause of disability in adults and recovery is often difficult, with existing rehabilitation therapies largely ineffective. In Broken Movement, John Krakauer and S. Thomas Carmichael, both experts in the field, provide an account of the neurobiology of motor recovery in the arm and hand after stroke. They cover topics that range from behavior to physiology to cellular and molecular biology. Broken Movement is the only accessible single-volume work that covers motor control and motor learning as they apply to stroke recovery and combines them with motor cortical physiology and molecular biology. The authors cast a critical eye at current frameworks and practices, offer new recommendations for promoting recovery, and propose new research directions for the study of brain repair. Krakauer and Carmichael discuss such subjects as the behavioral phenotype of hand and arm paresis in human and non-human primates; the physiology and anatomy of the motor system after stroke; mechanisms of spontaneous recovery; the time course of early recovery; the challenges of chronic stroke; and pharmacological and stem cell therapies. They argue for a new approach in which patients are subjected to higher doses and intensities of rehabilitation in a more dynamic and enriching environment early after stroke. Finally they review the potential of four areas to improve motor recovery: video gaming and virtual reality, invasive brain stimulation, re-opening the sensitive period after stroke, and the application of precision medicine.

Have you gone gluten-free or dairy-free? If so, you might not have to deny yourself the foods you love any longer.

Eat Wheat addresses the root cause: the inability to digest well and break down harmful toxins that can lead to more serious health concerns. Backed by more than 600 scientific studies, Eat Wheat is a revolutionary guidebook to regaining your digestive strength. Eat Wheat will: Reveal hidden science on the benefits of wheat and dairy Help you navigate around food toxins in modern wheat and dairy Retrain your body to digest wheat and dairy again Flush congested lymphatics linked to food intolerance symptoms Teach you to follow natural digestive circadian cycles Help bring your blood sugar back into balance Teach you proven exercise and detox techniques to reboot strong digestion and achieve optimal health and vitality
