Disobedient Histories in Ancient and Modern Times

Regionalism, Governance, War and Peace

By: Marsha R. Robinson

Tired of Cold War political analysis about post-Cold War events, zero-sum game theories, and world history as only one war after another? Disobedient Histories in Ancient and Modern Times: Regionalism, Governance, War and Peace breaks tradition by considering some alternative Western and non-Western international relations theories found in historical, anthropological, literary, archaeological, genetic and physical evidence from some ancient and modern societies in Europe, Africa and Asia. Chapters in this comparative history book explore the deep backstory of the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation, the Association for Southeast Asian Nations, Scandinavian Progressivism in international development, Welsh cultural preservation, North African feminism and political traditions in Tunisia, and the Gulf Cooperation Council. Other chapters explore the backstory of ideas leading to the rise of the ultranationalist National Front political party and the Charlie Hebdo magazine attack in France and also the zombie economics behind Boko Haram in Nigeria. The international relations theories in these disobedient histories suggest that the global peace, prosperity and dignity present in the United Nations Millennium and Sustainable Development Goals are viable.

Storm Orphan

A Memoir

By: Marsha Barrett

When Marsha Barrett is six years old, her mother dies of cancer. The youngest of three sisters in a Jewish family, she goes through a turbulent youth during the 1960s and 1970s, rebelling against her demanding and often absent father. Barrett depicts the heartbreaking yet humorous chaos in her household as her philandering father seeks a replacement wife and mother for his daughters. At age seventeen, disowned by her dad and feeling wildly un-mothered, Marsha flees her home in North Toronto to be independent. Storm Orphan is about a strong-spirited daughter and her domineering father. It’s about living through tragedy yet finding hilarity. It’s about grief and joy. It’s about losing and discovering love, but ultimately it’s a story about finding home.

eclectic COFFEE Spots in Puget Sound

PAINTINGS, PHOTOGRAPHS, MUSINGS, RECIPES

By: MARSHA GLAZIÈRE

This fun and fascinating book issues an enchanting invitation into current coffee culture. Marsha Glazière’s work is richly textured and framed from a poet's perspective. Who better than an artist to weave the Pacific Northwest's most romantic tale? As though she were recovering buried treasure, Marsha expertly guides us through Latte Land, from proud bean to magical elixir, sharing both coffee and her delight....one cup at a time. Seek out your favorite corner table, order your favorite espresso drink, and spend an afternoon with your new favorite coffee table book." Laurie Cheeley, Roastmaster for Highlands Coffee Company General Manager DIVA ESPRESSO "Marsha Glazière’s work has been featured in my Seattle, Washington and Sun Valley, Idaho galleries, and her one-woman exhibition in Idaho proved to be both aesthetically powerful and successful. Her equine imagery in particular was exceptionally well received. I believe this is due in part to Glazière’s sense of balance. Collectors, exclusively within a realistic sensibility, responded to her accurate portrayal of the horses’ muscle definition, movement and gaze, while the clientele with abstract preferences equally appreciated her work for what it evoked." Andria Friesen, FRIESEN GALLERY Seattle Sun Valley Amelia Island, Florida embraced Marsha Glazière’s interpretation of the beautiful North Florida landscapes in an abstract form like no other artists has been able to accomplish. She brought to the canvas her unique transformation of the Atlantic coast, the wildlife, and all the emotion it evokes. So it is no surprise that her ability to live in, embrace, and explore the surroundings of the Pacific Northwest, brought her to this new venture of capturing the area's favorite indulgence in an art form. Sit back and enjoy her incredible use of color and texture in bringing to life these beautiful and eclectic establishments.

Dreaming of Sheep in Navajo Country

By: Marsha Weisiger

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Dreaming of Sheep in Navajo Country

By: Marsha Weisiger

Dreaming of Sheep in Navajo Country offers a fresh interpretation of the history of Navajo (Diné) pastoralism. The dramatic reduction of livestock on the Navajo Reservation in the 1930s -- when hundreds of thousands of sheep, goats, and horses were killed -- was an ambitious attempt by the federal government to eliminate overgrazing on an arid landscape and to better the lives of the people who lived there. Instead, the policy was a disaster, resulting in the loss of livelihood for Navajos -- especially women, the primary owners and tenders of the animals -- without significant improvement of the grazing lands. Livestock on the reservation increased exponentially after the late 1860s as more and more people and animals, hemmed in on all sides by Anglo and Hispanic ranchers, tried to feed themselves on an increasingly barren landscape. At the beginning of the twentieth century, grazing lands were showing signs of distress. As soil conditions worsened, weeds unpalatable for livestock pushed out nutritious native grasses, until by the 1930s federal officials believed conditions had reached a critical point. Well-intentioned New Dealers made serious errors in anticipating the human and environmental consequences of removing or killing tens of thousands of animals. Environmental historian Marsha Weisiger examines the factors that led to the poor condition of the range and explains how the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Navajos, and climate change contributed to it. Using archival sources and oral accounts, she describes the importance of land and stock animals in Navajo culture. By positioning women at the center of the story, she demonstrates the place they hold as significant actors in Native American and environmental history. Dreaming of Sheep in Navajo Country is a compelling and important story that looks at the people and conditions that contributed to a botched policy whose legacy is still felt by the Navajos and their lands today.

Transmedia Frictions

The Digital, the Arts, and the Humanities

By: Marsha Kinder

Editors Marsha Kinder and Tara McPherson present an authoritative collection of essays on the continuing debates over medium specificity and the politics of the digital arts. Comparing the term ÒtransmediaÓ with Òtransnational,Ó they show that the movement beyond specific media or nations does not invalidate those entities but makes us look more closely at the cultural specificity of each combination. In two parts, the book stages debates across essays, creating dialogues that give different narrative accounts of what is historically and ideologically at stake in medium specificity and digital politics. Each part includes a substantive introduction by one of the editors. Part 1 examines precursors, contemporary theorists, and artists who are protagonists in this discursive drama, focusing on how the transmedia frictions and continuities between old and new forms can be read most productively: N. Katherine Hayles and Lev Manovich redefine medium specificity, Edward Branigan and Yuri Tsivian explore nondigital precursors, Steve Anderson and Stephen Mamber assess contemporary archival histories, and Grahame Weinbren and Caroline Bassett defend the open-ended mobility of newly emergent media. In part 2, trios of essays address various ideologies of the digital: John Hess and Patricia R. Zimmerman, Herman Gray, and David Wade Crane redraw contours of race, space, and the margins; Eric Gordon, Cristina Venegas, and John T. Caldwell unearth database cities, portable homelands, and virtual fieldwork; and Mark B.N. Hansen, Holly Willis, and Rafael Lozano-Hemmer and Guillermo G—mez-Pe–a examine interactive bodies transformed by shock, gender, and color. An invaluable reference work in the field of visual media studies, Transmedia Frictions provides sound historical perspective on the social and political aspects of the interactive digital arts, demonstrating that they are never neutral or innocent.

Social and Economic Networks in Early Massachusetts

Social and Economic Networks in Early Massachusetts

Atlantic Connections

By: Marsha L. Hamilton

The seventeenth century saw an influx of immigrants to the heavily Puritan Massachusetts Bay Colony. This book redefines the role that non-Puritans and non-English immigrants played in the social and economic development of Massachusetts. Marsha Hamilton shows how non-Puritan English, Scots, and Irish immigrants, along with Channel Islanders, Huguenots, and others, changed the social and economic dynamic of the colony. A chronic labor shortage in early Massachusetts allowed many non-Puritans to establish themselves in the colony, providing a foundation upon which later immigrants built transatlantic economic networks. Scholars of the era have concluded that these “strangers” assimilated into the Puritan structure and had little influence on colonial development; however, through an in-depth examination of each group’s activity in local affairs, Marsha Hamilton asserts a much different conclusion. By mining court, town, and company records, letters, and public documents, Hamilton uncovers the impact that these immigrants had on the colony, not only by adding to the diversity and complexity of society but also by developing strong economic networks that helped bring the Bay Colony into the wider Atlantic world. These groups opened up important mercantile networks between their own homelands and allies, and by creating their own communities within larger Puritan networks, they helped create the provincial identity that led the colony into the eighteenth century.

Winterkill

By: Marsha Forchuk Skrypuch

From acclaimed author Marsha Forchuk Skrypuch, this incredibly gripping and timely story set during the Holodomor in 1930s Ukraine introduces young readers to a pivotal moment in history-- and how it relates to the events of today. Nyl is just trying to stay alive. Ever since the Soviet dictator, Stalin, started to take control of farms like the one Nyl's family lives on, there is less and less food to go around. On top of bad harvests and a harsh winter, conditions worsen until it's clear the lack of food is not just chance... but a murderous plan leading all the way to Stalin. Alice has recently arrived from Canada with her father, who is here to work for the Soviets... until Alice realizes that the people suffering the most are all ethnically Ukrainian, like Nyl. Something is very wrong, and Alice is determined to help. Desperate, Nyl and Alice come up with an audacious plan that could save both of them -- and their community. But can they survive long enough to succeed? Known as the Holodomor, or death by starvation, Ukraine's Famine-Genocide in the 1930s was deliberately caused by the Soviets to erase the Ukrainian people and culture. Marsha Forchuk Skrypuch brings this deeply resonant, and remarkably timely, historical world to life in a story about unity, perseverance, and a people's determination to overcome.

Ellicott City

By: Marsha Wight Wise

Ellicott City, the seat of Howard County, began its life as a mill town before the American Revolution. Quaker brothers Joseph, Andrew, and John Ellicott built their first mill in 1772. The Patapsco Valley and River provided the brothers with the fertile land and power necessary to make the finest wheat flour. Ellicotts Mills, as the town was first known, grew steadily, becoming home to mill workers and merchants. Maryland founding families such as the Carrolls, Dorseys, and Warfields kept their family fortunes in Ellicott City because of the brothers agricultural expertise. Thus a town rich in history, tradition, and architectural gems was born. Highlighted in Images of America: Ellicott City are many long-gone local landmarks, including the Patapsco Female Institute and Rock Hill and St. Charles Colleges. Featured as well are the monuments to bygone days that have endured time, progress, floods, and fires, and are still standing today.

CROSSINGS

CROSSINGS

By: Marsha Carow Markman

Crossings is a collection of short stories that began years ago with scribblings on Post-it notes and journals, all set aside while the author was engulfed in a teaching career, a poetry group with university colleagues and writing for the academic marketplace. Resurfaced, completed and revised, the stories grew out of her favorite words: what if, words that plunged her into a world of the paranormal and all manner of phenomenon that, but for the courage of a cadre of researchers and experiencers, often rest outside the realm of science and too often the object of ridicule and indifference. Beginning with, “The Crossing,” Boston is home to the characters in each tale, a city with a long and varied history of American experience. The first-person “telling” by the central characters intimately connects each narrator with the reader in these tales of the unexpected and unexplained, a journey behind the curtain where curiosity and experience lay.

Artisans and Fair Trade

Crafting Development

By: Mary A. Littrell,Marsha A. Dickson

* Addresses the cultural conditions under which artisan work provides a feasible income alternative to other employment options * Offers a methodology for assessing the socio-economic impacts of fair trade artisan work After agriculture and tourism, artisan work provides the next most significant source of income in many developing countries. Yet because of its image as a soft or frivolous industry, some politicians and development professionals question whether the handcraft sector is worthy of investment. An opposing view holds that the creation of sustainable employment opportunities for poor people and a positive alternative to mass production outweighs the costs. Until now, the debate has been hampered by a lack of industry data. The apparel group MarketPlace: Handwork of India serves as the perfect case study to provide this missing information. Like many fair trade companies, it has dual goals: to generate income in the global marketplace and foster the empowerment of the low-income workers who run and staff the business. In conducting interviews with MarketPlace’s artisans, managers, and founders, Littrell and Dickson produced an in-depth socio-economic audit of the group over time. The result, Artisans and Fair Trade, provides a quantitatively and qualitatively illuminating study of fair trade impacts and a methodology that is sure to inform current assessment practices in social entrepreneurship and business social responsibility.

This extraordinary new volume, coauthored by three leaders in cancer research and surgery at Harvard Medical School, uses scientifically accurate yet accessible language to give readers a firm grounding in such essential concepts as angiogenesis and the genetics of cancer. In addition to information about types of cancer, diagnosis, and treatment, Cancer places special emphasis on new frontiers in research, psychological aspects of a cancer diagnosis, and quality-of-life issues for those living with disease. Useful features include a comprehensive glossary, a timeline of milestones in cancer research, and an appendix for students on how to pursue a career in science or medicine.

Infant and Toddler Development from Conception to Age 3

What Babies Ask of Us

By: Mary Jane Maguire-Fong,Marsha Peralta

This book invites those caring for infants to join as companions on an incredible journey. Each chapter taps a distinct area of research to shed light on babies’ biological expectations for care and their amazing competence as active participants in that care. Exploring each domain of development, with policy and practice recommendations, the authors offer important insights into: How prenates “read” and adapt to characteristics of their environment.How fetus and mother respond in sync to a cascade of hormones that facilitate healthy birth, breastfeeding, bonding, and immune system development.How infants search for proximity to caring, responsive others as a means of regulating physiological systems and making friends.How infants gather statistics on language through interactions with companions. How infants learn as they investigate objects and people within everyday play and interactions. “I have never experienced a book that more clearly and purposefully communicates the day-by-day development of infants and the essential role adults play in the optimization of that development.” —From the Foreword by J. Ronald Lally, WestEd Center for Child & Family Studies, author of For Our Babies “Infant development comes alive in this book.” —From the Afterword by Ed Tronick, Distinguished University Professor, University of Massachusetts, Boston “A must-read for anyone interested in young children. This will be a valuable resource for academics, clinicians, and caregivers.” —Bruce D. Perry, ChildTrauma Academy “This extraordinary collection of stories invites us to explore and reflect on what it’s like to be a baby, new to the world and full of curiosity.” —Elizabeth Jones, faculty emerita, Pacific Oaks College

Reflecting the Eternal

Dante's Divine Comedy in the Novels of C.S. Lewis

By: Marsha Daigle-Williamson

The characters, plots, and potent language of C. S. Lewis's novels reveal everywhere the modern writer' admiration for Dante's Divine Comedy. Throughout his career Lewis drew on the structure, themes, and narrative details of Dante's medieval epic to present his characters as spiritual pilgrims growing toward God. Dante's portrayal of sin and sanctification, of human frailty and divine revelation, are evident in all of Lewis's best work. Readers will see how a modern author can make astonishingly creative use of a predecessor's material - in this case, the way Lewis imitated and adapted medieval ideas about spiritual life for the benefit of his modern audience. Nine chapters cover all of Lewis's novels, from Pilgrim's Regress and his science-fiction to The Chronicles of Narnia and Till We Have Faces. Readers will gain new insight into the sources of Lewis's literary imagination that represented theological and spiritual principles in his clever, compelling, humorous, and thoroughly human stories.
