Darwin's Unfinished Symphony

How Culture Made the Human Mind

By: Kevin N. Lala

Humans possess an extraordinary capacity for culture, from the arts and language to science and technology. But how did the human mind—and the uniquely human ability to devise and transmit culture—evolve from its roots in animal behavior? Darwin’s Unfinished Symphony presents a captivating new theory of human cognitive evolution. This compelling and accessible book reveals how culture is not just the magnificent end product of an evolutionary process that produced a species unlike all others—it is also the key driving force behind that process. Kevin N. Lala tells the story of the painstaking fieldwork, the key experiments, the false leads, and the stunning scientific breakthroughs that led to this new understanding of how culture transformed human evolution. It is the story of how Darwin’s intellectual descendants picked up where he left off and took up the challenge of providing a scientific account of the evolution of the human mind.

Black Mercuries

African American Athletes, Race, and the Modern Olympic Games

By: David K. Wiggins,Kevin B. Witherspoon,Mark Dyreson

An essential source on African American athletes and Olympic history.” —Booklist, Starred Review, and Named a Booklist Top 10 Sports Book of 2023 The first book to fully chronicle the struggles and triumphs of African American athletes in the Modern Olympic summer games. In the modern Olympic Games, from 1896 through the present, African American athletes have sought to honor themselves, their race, and their nation on the global stage. But even as these incredible athletes have served to promote visions of racial harmony in the supposedly-apolitical Olympic setting, many have also bravely used the games as a means to bring attention to racial disparities in their country and around the world. In Black Mercuries: African American Athletes, Race, and the Modern Olympic Games, David K. Wiggins, Kevin B. Witherspoon, and Mark Dyreson explore in detail the varied experiences of African American athletes, specifically in the summer games. They examine the lives and careers of such luminaries as Jesse Owens, Rafer Johnson, Wilma Rudolph, Florence Griffith-Joyner, Michael Johnson, and Simone Biles, but also many African American Olympians who have garnered relatively little attention and whose names have largely been lost from historical memory. In recounting the stories of these Black Olympians, Black Mercuries makes clear that their superior athletic skills did not always shield them from the racial tropes and insensitivity spewed by fellow athletes, the media, spectators, and many others. Yet, in part because of the struggles they faced, African American Olympians have been extraordinarily important symbolically throughout Olympic history, serving as role models to future Black athletes and often putting their careers on the line to speak out against enduring racial inequality and discriminatory practices in all walks of life.

Gettysburg

A Novel

Gettysburg

A Novel

By: Kevin Morris

A Hollywood lawyer and producer takes part in a Civil War reenactment to escape the monotony of his life in this novel by the author of All Joe Knight. As a young man, John Reynolds fled his provincial hometown of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, for Los Angeles, lured by the promise of a life fueled by the excitement of show business. But after twenty years in Hollywood, Reynolds feels existentially unfulfilled. He resides in a beautiful mansion with his wife and daughter, and his business is booming, but Reynolds remains despondent as his attempts to pivot into producing his own movie projects fail again and again. Depressed and at a creative dead-end, Reynolds finds himself inexplicably drawn back to the historical setting of his youth: he has secretly signed up to participate in a weekend-long reenactment of the Battle of Gettysburg in the unlikely California town of Enchino, sixty miles east of Los Angeles. Just before his departure, an ex-Playmate—the very centerfold of Reynolds’s adolescent daydreams—pitches him her idea for a reality TV show. When Reynolds impulsively invites the former Playmate and her best friend, a former Miss Universe, to accompany him to the reenactment, his plans for a solitary weekend of self-discovery run amok. With a compulsively readable narrative that offers a satirical portrait of Hollywood—the deal-making, the politics, the pitches—Gettysburg is an intelligent and powerful book about contemporary America. Praise for Gettysburg “A showbiz satire from someone who knows what he writes. . . . A comic romp about a weekend misadventure at a Civil War re-enactment.” —Variety “Morris’s entertaining second novel, following All Joe Knight, zeros in on a particular male fantasy, and acknowledges the importance of entertainment and honoring the past, both personal and historic.” —Booklist “Though Reynolds’s plans for renewal end up wildly off the mark, he ultimately finds something of value. While delightedly skewering the privileged entertainment industry lifestyle, Morris uses Reynolds’s travails and the divisions of the Civil War period to make larger points about the current state of America.” —Library Journal

Valsiner: Handbook of Developmental (c) Psychology

By: Jaan Valsiner Kevin J. Connolly

`This is an impressive work... and will provide the advanced reader with a rich source of theory and evidence. There is a huge amount to be got from the book and I suspect it will become a key work' - J Gavin Bremner, Department of Psychology, Lancaster University The Handbook of Developmental Psychology is a comprehensive, authoritative yet frontier-pushing overview of the study of human development presented in a single-volume format. It is ideal for experienced individuals wishing for an up-to-date survey of the central themes prevalent to developmental psychology, both past and present, and for those seeking a reference work to help appreciate the subject for the first time. The insightful contributions from world-leading developmental psychologists successfully and usefully integrate different perspectives to studying the subject, following a systematic life-span structure, from pre-natal development through to old age in human beings. The Handbook then concludes with a substantive section on the methodological approaches to the study of development, focusing on both qualitative and quantitative techniques. This unique reference work will be hugely influential for anyone needing or wishing for a broad, yet enriched understanding of this fascinating subject. It will be a particularly invaluable resource for academics and researchers in the fields of developmental psychology, education, parenting, cultural and biological psychology and anthropology.

Heaven on a Half Section

By: Kevin Annett

This collection of heart-warming short stories is a continuation of the award-winning series by the author's grandfather Ross Annett. The latter's "Babe" series, written during the Depression and after, was the longest running and most popular series in the history of the Saturday Evening Post magazine. As "the first of the popular prairie humorists", Ross Annett's stories centered on one family's struggle to survive and overcome the odds during the Dustbowl in central Alberta. The story's protagonist, a widower farmer named Joe, fights to hold on to his land and his two children, Little Joe and Babe, alongside the comic-relief character, his reprobate drunken Uncle Pete. In Heaven on a Half Section, Ross Annett's grandson, Kevin Annett, continues the saga of this family during World War Two and beyond. In Kevin's words, "During these soul-trying days, it seemed like a good idea to revive that spirit and continue the tales of Big Joe and Babe and all the down-but-never-out characters from that "Greatest Generation". I owe it to my Grandpa and Dad and all the others who have kept me in the fight, and to those who have stumbled and fallen along the way. May these tales help them get on their feet again and keep going, dust bowls be damned." This is Kevin's twenty-sixth book and sixth work of fiction.

Love and Death in the Valley

By: Kevin Annett

When Matty Lopez McGuire's son, Miguel, is involved in a murder case, she knows she must help him. But he is secretive about his recent past (mid-1990s) with revolutionaries in Chiapas, Mexico. His attitude also alienates Matty from Ramon, the homicide detective she is dating. In Matty's work as a housekeeper in a cul-de-sac in Costa Dorada, she interacts with her five clients: The Chinese-American family is remodeling its home; Miguel, working in construction there when not in college, has argued with a fellow worker, African-American Jarod. When Jarod is killed, Miguel is the main suspect. In the novelist's household, Matty learns that teenage Laneesha has suspicious ties to Jarod. She also discovers that the boys in the neighborhood play secret, dangerous games. The Latina lawyer client sets a positive example for Matty; a socialite client, a negative one. Professor Dorn, father of one of the boys, may be a neo-Nazi. While Matty works for these people, she studies at night school she doesn't want to be a housekeeper forever and explores her Latina roots. Though resourceful at solving other people's problems, she sometimes has trouble coping with her own. Occasionally her temper and defensiveness get in her way. Casting herself in the role of detective, Matty has developed the habit of snooping (as Ramon calls it) in her clients' homes when she deems it necessary. In this way she discovers incriminating evidence that leads to the clearing of her son's name. And though she is sure that computers hate her, as do the cats she is temporarily boarding, both these foes, ironically, help her solve the mystery and find the real culprit. Romance ebbs and flows and finally blooms with Ramon, and Matty eventually discovers that her cul-de-sac is not a blind alley, but an opportunity.
