Will a cure for bird flu come in a tiny package? Big Fleas Have Little Fleas How Discoveries of Invertebrate Diseases Are Advancing Modern Science ELIZABETH W. DAVIDSON

Ever since Louis Pasteur saved the French silk industry by identifying a disease affecting silkworms, scientists have focused their attention on smaller and smaller organisms. Once upon a time, the rhinoceros beetle threatened the coconut plantations of Polynesia until scientists discovered the virus that would control it.

Inviting dialogue about an essential question Science, Society, and the Search for Life in the Universe BRUCE JAKOSKY

Are we alone in the universe? As humans, are we unique or are we part of a cosmic society? What is life’s future on Earth and beyond? How does life begin and develop? These are age-old questions that have inspired wonder and contro- versy ever since the first people looked up into the sky. With today’s technology, however, we are closer than ever to finding the answers. Astrobiology is the relatively new but fast growing scientific discipline that involves trying to understand the origin, evolution, and distribution of life within the universe. It is also one of the few scientific disciplines that attract the “Is there intelligent life out there? And public’s intense curiosity and attention. This interest stems largely from the if there is, how will it affect us?

Levy In this broadly accessible introduction to the field, Bruce Jakosky looks at the search for life in the universe not only from a scientific perspective but also from a distinctly social one. In lucid and engaging prose, he addresses topics including the contradiction between the public’s fascination and the meager dialogue that exists between those within the scientific community and those outside of it, NASA’s public relations campaign, and what has become some of the most impassioned political wrangling ever seen in government science funding.

BRUCE JAKOSKY is a professor and the Associate Director for Science in the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics at the University of Colorado at Boulder and a member of the Department of Geological Sciences. He is the author of The Search for Life on Other Planets and coeditor of the book Mars.

A life imagined and cold reality collide The Peruvian Notebooks BRAULIO MUÑOZ

This lyrical, deeply affecting novel portrays the life of an undocumented Peruvian immigrant in the United States and his struggle and failure to achieve the “American dream.” Although Antonio Alday Gutiérrez dreams of great success when coming to America, he accepts work as a security guard at a shopping mall and lives in a modest apartment. To soften the bleak reality of his disappointing life, Antonio invents a privileged Peruvian past to mislead his new American friends. He also sends letters to his family in Peru boasting of a thriving business and large home. This double deception leads Antonio to commit an act of desperation to conceal the drab reality of his new American life. “Muñoz’s words turn inside out before As the novel opens, Antonio is waiting in his apartment for the police to arrest your eyes.

An acclaimed poet celebrates ordinary things Adobe Odes PAT MORA

Wine-sipping syllables, a communion of bones, impetuous pinches of chile, and parrot-sassy guacamole. With a mélange of aromas and tastes, colors and sounds, award-winning poet Pat Mora invites readers into her home in this new collection of forty-nine odes. Inspired by Pablo Neruda’s Odas Elementales and reinvented with a Latina identity, Mora celebrates the ordinary in lyrics that are anything but. Her poetry is the poetry of space—house patterns and adobe constructions—and the human rhythms that happen inside. It is also the poetry of what she loves—chocolate, books, dandelions, church bells, hope, courage, and even rain. Thick with the microcultures of foodstuffs, family, places, regions, deities, spirits, and literary Praise for Pat Mora's poetry— figures, Mora’s adobe universe is luscious and tactile, elemental and dynamic.

What's in a name? The Secret Powers of Naming SARA LITTLECROW-RUSSELL Introduction by JOY HARJO

Sara Littlecrow-Russell’s style emerges from the ancient and sacred tradition of storytelling, where legends were told not just to entertain but to teach and, if necessary, to discipline. The power of the storyteller is the power of naming, to establish a relationship, a connection, and a sense of meaning. A name is both a bequest and a burden. Each of the poems in this collection is, in essence, a naming ritual. Sharply, energetically, and always provocatively, these poems name uncomfortable moments, complex emotions, and sudden, often wryly humorous realizations. As she explores how names imposed by outsiders both collide and merge with the identities that Natives create for themselves, these poems decisively counter “Littlecrow-Russell is a fresh voice the images of Indians as colorful dancers, stoic saints, and defeated warriors. that is not contrived yet resonates with These verses are not constructed of beautiful images, nor are they stories of today.

A Native daughter returns home Blonde Indian An Alaska Native Memoir ERNESTINE HAYES

In the spring, the bear returns to the forest, the glacier returns to its source, and the salmon returns to the fresh water where it was spawned. Drawing on the special relationship that the Native people of southeastern Alaska have always had with nature, Blonde Indian is a story about returning. Told in eloquent layers that blend native stories and metaphor with social and spiritual journeys, this enchanting memoir traces the author’s life from her difficult childhood growing up in the Tlingit community through her adulthood, during which she lived for some time in Seattle and San Francisco, and eventu- ally to her return home. Neither fully Native American nor Euro-American, “Hayes’s voice is fascinating, compelling, completely unique and Hayes encounters a unique sense of alienation from both her Native community fresh.

Adventure on the currents of life The Same River Twice A Boatman’s Journey Home MICHAEL BURKE

In the summer of 1991 Michael Burke, an experienced river guide, embarks on a three-week journey down a series of remote rivers in British Columbia. Leaving behind his pregnant wife, he embraces the perils of a voyage with a companion he barely knows in a raft that may not weather the trip. He attempts to reconcile the shifting fates of his life—his transition from river guide to husband, father, and academic. At the same time, he hopes to explore his connection to a distant relative, Sid Barrington, who was a champion “swiftwater pilot of the North” in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. As Burke contemplates what Sid and he may have had in common, he meditates on the changing meaning of rivers and “This is an original work by a writer the impossibility of fully recovering the past. who really knows rivers, river trips, whitewater, and the life of a guide.” In clear and graceful prose, Burke blends Sid’s colorful history with his own —Hal Crimmel, Weber State College uncommon journey. He also reflects upon the quick currents of time and the fierce passion he shares with Sid for the life of river running in Alaska and the West. Unlike most river-running books, which describe waterways in the lower forty-eight states, The Same River Twice introduces readers to rough, austere, and unfamiliar rivers in the northern wilderness. Burke has an intimate understand- ing of these remote, free-flowing rivers. He effectively captures the thrill of moving water, the spirit of rivers and river canyons, and the life of river guides. This insightful memoir brings readers into a confluence of rivers, where past and present merge, revealing the power of wilderness and the truth about changing course.

MICHAEL BURKE has been a whitewater guide for 35 years. He is an associate professor in the English Department at Colby College in Waterville, Maine, and director of the honors program at the University of Maine at Farmington.

The plant and its habitat The Organ Pipe Cactus DAVID YETMAN

Distinguished by its slender vertical branches, which resemble the tubes of a pipe organ, and growing to the imposing height of 15 to more than 30 feet, it’s obvious how the organ pipe cactus got its name. In the United States, these spectacular and intriguing plants are found exclusively in a small area of the Sonoran Desert in the southwestern corner of Arizona. With a landscape marked by sharp, rocky slopes and daytime highs in the summer reaching 110 degrees Fahrenheit, the region is inhospitable for most ordinary life, whether plant or animal. But the organ pipe cactus is far from ordinary.

Employment is only part of the story Doing Without Women and Work after Welfare Reform Edited by JANE HENRICI

The welfare reform legislation enacted in 1996 was applauded by many for the successes it had in dramatically reducing the number of people receiving public assistance, most of whom were women with children. Today, however, more than a decade later, these successes seem far less spectacular. Although the total number of welfare recipients has dropped by more than 50 percent nationwide, evidence shows that poverty has actually deepened. Many hard- working women are no better off for having returned to the workplace.

There’s no denying that the U.S.–Mexico border region has changed in the past twenty years. With the emergence of the North American Free Trade Agree- ment (NAFTA), the curtailment of welfare programs, and more aggressive efforts by the United States to seal the border against undocumented migrants, the prospect of seeking a livelihood—particularly for women—has become more tenuous in the twenty-first century. “This book represents a powerful In the face of the ironic juxtaposition of free trade and limited mobility, this account of women by women.

A nuanced picture of faith and ethnicity in the West Race, Religion, Region Landscapes of Encounter in the American West Edited by FAY BOTHAM and SARA M. PATTERSON

Racial and religious groups have played a key role in shaping the American West, yet scholars have for the most part ignored how race and religion have influenced regional identity. In this collection, eleven contributors explore the intersections of race, religion, and region to show how they transformed the West. From the Punjabi Mexican Americans of California to the European American shamans of Arizona to the Mexican Chinese of the borderlands, historical meanings of race in the American West are complex and are further complicat- “Race, Religion, Region is a pioneering ed by religious identities.

The opening chapters document how religion fostered community in Los Angeles in the first half of the twentieth century. The second section examines how physical encounters—such as those involving Chinese immigrants, Hermanos Penitentes, and Pueblo dancers—shaped reli- gious and racial encounters in the West. The final essays investigate racial and religious identity among the Latter-day Saints and southern California Muslims. As these contributions clearly show, race, religion, and region are as critical as gender, sexuality, and class in understanding the melting pot that is the West. By depicting the West as a unique site for understanding race and religion, they open a new window on how we view all of America.

The historical setting and social context of blasphemy Dangerous Speech A Social History of Blasphemy in Colonial Mexico JAVIER VILLA-FLORES

Dangerous Speech is the first systematic treatment of blasphemous speech in colonial Mexico. This engaging social history examines the representation of blasphemy as a sin and a crime, and its repression by the Spanish Inquisition. The Spanish colonists viewed blasphemy not only as an insult against God but also as a dangerous misrepresentation of the deity, which could call down his wrath in a ruinous assault on the imperial enterprise. Why then, asks Villa-Flores, did Spaniards dare to blaspheme? Having mined ”Villa-Flores’s book is concise, sharply the period’s moral and philosophical works, royal decrees, and Inquisition focused, and well-organized.

César Chávez and the farmworkers’ struggle for justice polarized the Catholic community in California’s Central Valley during the 1965–1970 Delano Grape Strike. Because most farmworkers and landowners were Catholic, the American Catholic Church was placed in the challenging position of choosing sides in an intrafaith conflict. Twice Chávez petitioned the Catholic Church for help. “This book contributes to knowledge of Finally, in 1969 the American Catholic hierarchy responded by creating the the relationship of Chávez and the Bishops’ Ad Hoc Committee on Farm Labor.

He traces the Church’s gradual transition from reluctant mediator to outright supporter of Chávez, providing an intimate view of the Church’s decision-making process and Chávez’s steadfast struggle to win rights for farmworkers. This lucid, solidly researched text will be an invaluable addition to the fields of labor history, social justice, ethnic studies, and religious history.

How much does ethnicity matter to Mexican Americans today, when many marry outside their culture and some can’t even stomach menudo?

He then demonstrates that, although social integration for Mexican Americans shares many elements with that of most European Americans, forces related to ethnic concentration, social inequality, and identity politics combine to make ethnicity for Mexican Americans more fixed across generations. Enhancing research already available on first- and second-generation Mexican Americans, Macias’s study also complements research done on other third-plus- generation ethnic groups and provides the empirical data needed to understand the commonalities and differences between them. His work plumbs the chang- ing meaning of mestizaje in the Americas over five centuries and has much to teach us about the continuing role of Mexican-origin people in the United States.

Examining the Chicana/o literary canon Chicano and Chicana Literature Otra voz del pueblo CHARLES M. TATUM

The literary culture of the Spanish-speaking Southwest has its origins in a harsh frontier environment marked by episodes of intense cultural conflict, and much of the literature seeks to capture the epic experiences of conquest and settle- ment. The Chicano literary canon has evolved rapidly over four centuries to become one of the most dynamic and vital parts of contemporary U.S. literature. In this comprehensive examination of Chicano and Chicana literature, Charles M. Tatum brings a new and refreshing perspective to the ethnic identity of Mexican Americans. From the earliest sixteenth-century chronicles of the Other recent titles in Spanish Period, to the poetry and narrative fiction of the second half of the The Mexican American Experience— nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth century, and then to the Chicana/o Identity in a flowering of all literary genres in the post–Chicano Movement years, Chicana/o Changing U.S. Society literature amply reflects the hopes and aspirations, as well as the frustrations ¿Quién Soy? ¿Quiénes Somos? and disillusionments, of an often marginalized population.

The politics of self-determination Taking Charge Native American Self-Determination and Federal Indian Policy, 1975–1993 GEORGE PIERRE CASTILE

The Indian Self-Determination Act of 1975 sought to restore self-government to peoples whose community affairs had long been administered by outsiders. This book explores whether that bold ambition was actually realized. Taking Charge is a sequel to the author’s landmark work To Show Heart, which examined Indian policy through 1975. George Castile now explores federal Indian policy in the Carter, Reagan, and first Bush administrations, tracing developments triggered by executive and congressional action—or inaction—and “George Pierre Castile is a nationally focusing on the dynamics of self-determination as both policy objective and recognized authority on American byword in the wake of the landmark 1975 legislation.

He examines the marginalizing of Indian policy in both the executive and legislative branches in the face of larger issues, as well as the recurring tendency of policy to be driven by a single determined individual, such as South Dakota senator James Abourezk. Although self-determination is roundly advocated by all concerned with federal Indian policy, until now no book has provided a grasp of both its background and its implications. Taking Charge is an essential contribution to the critical study of that policy that allows a better understanding of contemporary Indian affairs.

The enchanting pottery created by the Mimbres people of southwestern New Mexico is considered by many scholars to be unique among all the ancient art traditions of North America. Distinguished by their elaborate hand-painted black-on-white designs, Mimbres vessels have inspired artists and collectors, and many insist that they are unrivaled in several millennia of pottery making. While the attention to the extraordinary Mimbres painted pottery is well merited, the focus on its artistry alone has obscured other equally remarkable achievements and compelling questions about the unique and sophisticated Mimbres society.

Water as a valuable resource in ancient culture Precolumbian Water Management Ideology, Ritual, and Power Edited by LISA J. LUCERO and BARBARA W. FASH

Among ancient Mesoamerican and southwestern peoples, water was as essential as maize for sustenance and was a driving force in the development of complex society. Control of water shaped the political, economic, and religious landscape of the ancient Americas, yet it is often overlooked in Precolumbian studies. Now one volume offers the latest thinking on water systems and their place within the ancient physical and mental language of the region. Precolumbian Water Management examines the subject from both economic and symbolic perspectives. Water management facilities, settlement patterns, “A robust volume of compelling recent shrines, and water-related imagery associated with civic-ceremonial and work . . . with broad chronological and residential architecture provide evidence that water systems pervade all geographical coverage. At last here is aspects of ancient society. Through analysis of such data, the contributors seek one place where we can find the latest to combine an understanding of imagery and the religious aspects of water with thinking on water systems and their its functional components, thereby presenting a unified perspective of how place within the ancient physical and water was conceived, used, and represented in ancient greater Mesoamerica. mental landscape of Mesoamerica.” The collection boasts broad chronological and geographical coverage—from —Eleanor King, Howard University the irrigation networks of Teotihuacan to the use of ritual water technology at Casas Grandes—that shows how procurement and storage systems were adapted to local conditions. The chapters consider the mechanisms that were used to build upon the sacredness of water to enhance political authority through time and space, and they show that water was not merely an essential natural resource but an important spiritual one as well, and that its manipulation was socially far more complex than might appear at first glance. As these chapters reveal, an understanding of materials associated with water can contribute much to the ways that archaeologists study ancient cultural systems.
