Johns Hopkins University Press To Antietam Creek
Book SynopsisA richly detailed account of the hard-fought campaign that led to Antietam Creek and changed the course of the Civil War. In early September 1862 thousands of Union soldiers huddled within the defenses of Washington, disorganized and discouraged from their recent defeat at Second Manassas. Confederate General Robert E. Lee then led his tough and confident Army of Northern Virginia into Maryland in a bold gamble to force a showdown that could win Southern independence. The future of the Union hung in the balance. The campaign that followed lasted only two weeks, but it changed the course of the Civil War. D. Scott Hartwig delivers a riveting first installment of a two-volume study of the campaign and climactic battle. It takes the reader from the controversial return of George B. McClellan as commander of the Army of the Potomac through the Confederate invasion, the siege and capture of Harpers Ferry, the daylong Battle of South Mountain, and, ultimately, to the eve of the great and tTrade ReviewThe first volume of this two volume set is so very well written and all-inclusive on the detailed facts of this Maryland Campaign that it looks like this two volume set just might be the very best ever written on this campaign and battle.—Lone Star Book ReviewsIt is difficult to imagine that a future study on this campaign could supersede Hartwig's work.—Civil War Book ReviewA new and monumental study of the origins and initiation of the Maryland Campaign of 1862 . . . To Antietam Creek is a tour de force which will stand as the preeminent and final word on the subject . . . A must read for any serious Civil War student interested in the crucial events leading up to the Battle of Antietam. It is an instant classic on the subject, superbly written, and a ready preface to what will be an equally important and fresh approach to the battle in a second book.—Blue and Gray MagazineHartwig has unquestionably produced the most thoroughly researched book published in this Civil War sesquicentennial period.—Journal of Southern History[To Antietam Creek's] sheer comprehensiveness makes it indispensable for studying the Maryland Campaign. For the first time, the entirety of the campaign, from the end of the Second Battle of Bull Run on August 30 to the night of September 16 is covered in detail . . . The narrative is clear and strikingly vivid, making for a compelling read. . . Hartwig offers a wonderful study on the battlefield commanders as well, maintaining a fair and balanced account . . . [T]he result is a comprehensive, engaging, and informative study.—Southern HistorianTo Antietam Creek is a masterfully detailed and exceptionally well-written narrative of the Union and Confederate perspectives on the Maryland Campaign leading up to the bloodiest day in the history of the Western Hemisphere. It skillfully examines the armies and the men who both commanded and served in them. It disentangles complicated battle narratives and provides balanced coverage of the personalities and major decisions of the campaign. Finally, it deconstructs many persistent myths about the campaign and uses abundant evidence to support its conclusions. It should serve as a definitive work on the buildup to Antietam, and its companion volume should be eagerly awaited.—H-Net ReviewsTo Antietam Creek makes a very substantial contribution to the scholarship on the Maryland Campaign. It is thoroughly researched and taps previously unused sources. As the most comprehensive work available on the campaign leading up to Antietam, it will inform both historians and casual readers; its gripping narrative forcefully conveys some [of] the excitement that participants in the campaign must have felt. We should look forward to D. Scott Hartwig's concluding volume on the Battle of Antietam itself.—Michigan War Studies ReviewTable of ContentsList of IllustrationsIntroduction1.

University of Texas Press The Florentine Codex An Encyclopedia of the
Book SynopsisScholars explore the most significant trove of Nahua culture and language: an illustrated manuscript compiled after the Spanish conquest by a Franciscan friar with many indigenous authors and painters.Trade Review[The Florentine Codex] offers fresh insights into the production and conceptualization of the manuscript, as well as the nuanced interchanges that occurred among its many collaborators...This book will directly appeal to those interested in sixteenth-century manuscripts of central Mexico and Nahua culture more generally. It will be an essential source for those working on the Florentine Codex. * H-Net Reviews *[A] lavishly illustrated volume...This is a very engaging and useful compilation of essays that help to illuminate the Florentine Codex. It is essential for all scholars of the contact period in Mexico and will serve as a point of departure for much additional research. * The Americas *The overall innovative quality of this volume is impressive. Above all, this important new book enhances our understanding of the Florentine Codex’s third text, its illustrations, which were clearly 'eloquent images' that gave Nahuatl and Spanish alphabetic texts their enduring power. * Journal of Interdisciplinary History *The Florentine Codex provides a rich scholarly dialogue among the contributors. They commonly accept the alphabetic texts and images of the Florentine Codex as a bicultural product, but they differ in their approaches to the codex by emphasizing either indigenous or European tradition depending on their scholarly interest. Yet, their studies perfectly and harmoniously fit in the book by complementing one another. There is no doubt that this collection will serve as an important source for the scholars and students of pre-Hispanic and colonial Mexico for many years to come. * Bulletin of Spanish Studies *This book is an important contribution to Sahaguntine studies in its collection of insightful essays by established scholars, including revised versions of some now-classic scholarship. The relatively succinct chapters are well suited for university instruction, for both core curricula and specialized courses. It is a beautifully illustrated volume that will appeal to anyone interested in the early modern humanities. * Renaissance Quarterly *[A] rigorous, interdisciplinary, and engaging treatment of the most consequential manuscript on the Aztec or Nahua worlds…[The Florentine Codex] features contributions from exemplary specialists and is richly illustrated…superb. * Hispanic American Historical Review *[The Florentine Codex] will be an important source for those interested in better understanding the Nahua world before and after Spanish arrival. The volume’s goal of emphasizing the Florentine Codex’s paintings is well-served by the abundant images that fill the essays, all of them in color...by looking closely at the codex and asking new questions of it, each of the authors brings a distinct perspective and special insights to their task, providing a strong foundation and model for future studies of the Florentine Codex and the Nahua world. * American Historical Review *[A] lavishly illustrated edited volume…One thing that authors in the volume consistently do is pay close attention to both the Spanish and Nahuatl texts, always attentive to gaps and acts of translation—as well as censorship and resistance—between them... Even after all of the advances in this volume, there is still much more to learn about this fascinating document. * Latin American & Latinx Visual Culture *Table of Contents Preface and Acknowledgments Introduction.

Duke University Press Around the Day in Eighty Worlds
Book SynopsisIn Around the Day in Eighty Worlds Martin Savransky calls for a radical politics of the pluriverse amid the ongoing devastation of the present. Responding to an epoch marked by the history of colonialism and ecological devastation, Savransky draws on the pragmatic pluralism of William James to develop what Savransky calls a “pluralistic realism”—an understanding of the world as simultaneously one and many, ongoing and unfinished, underway and yet to be made. Savransky explores the radical multifariousness of reality by weaving key aspects of James''s thought together with divergent worlds and stories: of Magellan''s circumnavigation, sorcery in Mozambique, God''s felt presence among a group of evangelicals in California, visible spirits in Zambia, and ghosts in the wake of the 2011 tsunami in Japan. Throughout, he experiments with these storied worlds to dramatize new ways of approaching the politics of radical difference and the possibility of transforming reaTrade Review“Martin Savransky's generative and intense book powerfully relays the living, burning demand at the heart of William James's pragmatism—that we learn to feel and think with a reality in the making of which we participate, whether we will it or not. Experimenting with this risky but transformative demand, Savransky reactivates a William James, calling contemporary thinkers to hold out a trusting hand to the manifold, adventurous commitments of today's activism.” -- Isabelle Stengers, author of * In Catastrophic Times: Resisting the Coming Barbarism *“With superior scholarship and clarity, Martin Savransky joins recent efforts to displace realist epistemologies and offer alternative analytical practices of the real. This succinct book moves conversations about the so-called ontological turn (and ontological openings) to a thought-ground that philosophically inclined scholars in all disciplines will find attractive to play in.” -- Marisol de la Cadena, author of * Earth Beings: Ecologies of Practice across Andean Worlds *"A succinct book, captivatingly structured, and thoughtfully written, Around the Day in Eighty Worlds is a generative contribution to the study and practice of pluriversal politics." -- David McKeown * European Journal of Social Theory *"Overall, this book offers scholars across disciplines a reconceptualized approach to analyzing social worlds.

Duke University Press Atmospheres of Violence
Book SynopsisAdvances in LGBTQ rights in the recent past—marriage equality, the repeal of Don''t Ask, Don''t Tell, and the expansion of hate crimes legislation—have been accompanied by a rise in attacks against trans, queer and/or gender-nonconforming people of color. In Atmospheres of Violence, theorist and organizer Eric A. Stanley shows how this seeming contradiction reveals the central role of racialized and gendered violence in the United States. Rather than suggesting that such violence is evidence of individual phobias, Stanley shows how it is a structuring antagonism in our social world. Drawing on an archive of suicide notes, AIDS activist histories, surveillance tapes, and prison interviews, they offer a theory of anti-trans/queer violence in which inclusion and recognition are forms of harm rather than remedies to it. In calling for trans/queer organizing and worldmaking beyond these forms, Stanley points to abolitionist ways of life that might offer livable futures.Trade Review“Eric A. Stanley's Atmospheres of Violence animates trans/queer, young queer, and racially dominated lives never quite stamped out by a brittle white supremacist egosystem. Written with tenderness and passionate thunder, the book's brilliant storytelling circulates grief and hope for the governed who remain alive and ungovernable. Throughout, Stanley offers vital pedagogies of truancy and wicked survival for potential collective life.” -- Lauren Berlant, author of * Cruel Optimism *“Atmospheres of Violence offers a generous and generative reminder that queer and trans lives have always been bigger and more brilliant than the deadly state that tries to frighten and cajole us. Out of a devastating archive, Eric A. Stanley's queer and trans stories rise beyond assimilation, honoring our gorgeous survival and refusals as resistance.” -- Tourmaline, artist, activist, and writer"A must read for those interested in dismantling systems of oppression and in trans/queer liberation. Essential. Advanced undergraduates through faculty; professionals." -- A. N. Weiss * Choice *"A remarkable contribution to queer theory, an imperative analytic for abolitionist praxis, and a poignanttestament to enduring the present world in service of destroying the present world, Atmospheres of Violence is a vital text for those who look, labor, and long for livable lives on the horizon." -- Kerry Keith * Lateral: Journal of the Cultural Studies Association *"Atmospheres of Violence exposes the violent ruse of settling for equality within nested systems bent on widespread immiseration, precarity, and violence, and intricately theorizes near life as a space of inventive resistance, a lab for existential experiments in ungovernability." -- Hil Malatino * GLQ *"Atmospheres demands we recognize that a way out of shitholes of the here, now and forever require attention to the breaks and clefts where collective possibility of being together, unconfined, rageful, might give us a kind of shape of impossibility-- one where we might better carve out a life-giving world in the cinders of a colonial humanity." -- Ren-yo Hwang * Society and Space *"I am humbled by—or rather, humble before (because knowing their previous work, I certainly didn’t enter it with selfproud expectation, rather an interest in learning with)—Stanley’s clear-eyed determination to not only reevaluate the queer/trans station within/for and without the immanently violent social." -- Mel Y.

Duke University Press Terracene A Crude Aesthetics
Book SynopsisIn Terracene Salar Mameni historicizes the popularization of the scientific notion of the Anthropocene alongside the emergence of the global war on terror. Mameni theorizes the Terracene as an epoch marked by a convergence of racialized militarism and environmental destruction. Both the Anthropocene and the war on terror centered the antagonist figures of the Anthropos and the terrorist as responsible for epochal changes in the new geological and geopolitical world orders. In response, Mameni shows how the Terracene requires radically new engagements with terra (the earth), whose intelligence resides in matters such as oil and phenomena like earthquakes and fires. Drawing on the work of artists whose practices interrogate histories of settler-colonial and imperial interests in land and resources in Iran, Iraq, Yemen, Kuwait, Syria, Palestine, and other regions most affected by the war on terror, Mameni offers speculative paths into the aesthetics of the Terracene.Trade Review“An innovative, timely, and eminently teachable book, Terracene is part of an exciting new wave of new materialist thought that challenges speciesism, decenters the human, and destabilizes the category of the human altogether. Salar Mameni writes beautifully, weaving memoir and personal vignettes with deep theorizing that demonstrates bright flashes of genius throughout. They bring together the best of critical race, Indigenous, and postcolonial scholarship to bear on the dystopian here and now of climate chaos and terrorized world-making. In short, Terracene is a sensation.” -- Ronak K. Kapadia, author of * Insurgent Aesthetics: Security and the Queer Life of the Forever War *“In compelling visual analysis, Salar Mameni shows us how the colonial construction of terror has violently homed in on racialized bodies and environments. Through an aesthetics of revolt forged in opposition to the pincer movement of the inhumane-inhuman, Mameni confronts the weaponization of environments in their narrativization.” -- Kathryn Yusoff, author of * A Billion Black Anthropocenes or None *Table of ContentsCreation Story 1 Part 1.

University of Toronto Press The Behaviorally Informed Organization
Book SynopsisEvery organization is fundamentally in the business of behavior change, whether it be a government trying to get a business to comply with environmental regulations, a business persuading its customers to be loyal to its products, or a financial institution encouraging a client to start saving for retirement. Behavior change is critical to organizational success, but despite its centrality to organizations, we do not have a good understanding of how organizations can successfully employ insights from behavioral science in their operations. To address this gap, this book develops an overarching framework for using behavioral science. It shows how behavioral insights (BI) can be embedded in organizations to achieve better outcomes, improve the efficiency of processes, and maximize stakeholder engagement. This edited volume provides an enterprise-wide strategic perspective on how governments, businesses, and other organizations have embedded BI into their operations.

University of Toronto Press History of Medicine
Book SynopsisJacalyn Duffin's History of Medicine is one of the leading texts used to teach the history of the medical profession. Emphasizing broad concepts rather than names and dates, it has also been widely appreciated by general readers for more than twenty years. Based on sound scholarship and meticulous research, History of Medicine incorporates pithy examples from a range of periods and places and is infused with the author’s characteristic wit.The third edition has been completely revised to highlight new scholarship on the past and incorporate significant medical events of the most recent decade – including new technologies, drug shortages, medical assistance in dying, and recent outbreaks of infectious diseases such as Ebola, H1N1, Zika, and COVID-19. The book is organized around themes of scientific and clinical interest, such as anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, surgery, obstetrics, medical education, health-care delivery, and public health. It inTrade Review"The facts are often fascinating and the prose is lively and accessible, guaranteeing interesting reading even for those on the receiving end of the stethoscope." -- Debby Waldman * Quill and Quire *"The first readers of this History of Medicine should be medical students. As the director of a history of medicine program I welcome this book, for at last I have a good textbook to recommend ... It should be bought by, or better still, presented to each Canadian medical student as a reward for acceptance into medical school." -- Peter Warren * Canadian Medical Association Journal *"A rollicking ride through the history of medicine ... Each chapter represents the tried-and-true teaching methods of the author ... [these], combined with the author's lucid writing style and often humorous approach, made me envious of Duffin's students." -- Hughes Evans * Isis *"Duffin's book is not only concise but also entertaining and enlightening ... a valuable, good-natured overview of a large topic that challenges everyone who teaches the history of medicine to do a better job." -- Barron H. Lerner * Journal of the History of Medicine *"This book is a superbly crafted volume readily accessible to the medical students for whom it was intended but equally rewarding to historians of all stripes for its wide-ranging and insightful discussions of the development of medicine from antiquity to Ebola and AIDS ... a reminder of the splendor and fascination of healing and its lengthy and compelling history." -- Susan E.

Kristian Berg has the answers to the questions my patients frequently ask about stretching, and he clearly explains the why, how and when. An essential for every gym bag!”—Ron Noy, MD, Prestige Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine“Prescriptive Stretching is a wonderful resource for any level of learner. Beginning with the anatomy of the muscles and bones is critical in order to gain an understanding of the purpose of performing specific stretches and WHY. I especially appreciate the information on the health benefits of movement and stretching. The Four Main Principles are so insightful. Stretching is often a mystery to many people, and these guidelines are important in preparing the user to understand the purpose and function of each stretch. Although the book is science based, the terms are explained in a very easy-to-understand manner. The sections on posture are also very enlightening. So many people would avoid pain and dysfunction if they would take the time to focus on their daily postures and then address the misalignment through a stretch or series of stretches. This easy-to-follow guide offers simple application for better health and daily performance through flexibility.”—Irene McCormick, MS, CSCS, Senior Director of Fitness Education for Orangetheory FitnessTable of ContentsIntroduction Muscles and Bones of the Human Body Stretching Fundamentals Targeted Stretches Programs for Pain Relief Assessing Flexibility and Muscle Balance Stretch Index References About the Author

Book SynopsisThe Francophone Caribbean boasts a trove of literary gems. Distinguished by innovative, elegant writing and thought-provoking questions of history and identity, this exciting body of work demands scholarly attention.

Cornell University Press Hypocrisy and Human Rights
Book SynopsisHypocrisy and Human Rights examines what human rights pressure does when it does not work. Repressive states with absolutely no intention of complying with their human rights obligations often change course dramatically in response to international pressure. They create toothless commissions, permit but then obstruct international observers'' visits, and pass showpiece legislation while simultaneously bolstering their repressive capacity. Covering debates over transitional justice in Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Cambodia, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and other countries, Kate Cronin-Furman investigates the diverse ways in which repressive states respond to calls for justice from human rights advocates, UN officials, and Western governments who add their voices to the victims of mass atrocities to demand accountability. She argues that although international pressure cannot elicit compliance in the absence of domestic motivations to comply, the complexity of tTrade ReviewNonetheless, the book is otherwise a concise yet comprehensive account of how states respond to international pressure when creating justice mechanisms. CroninFurman's analysis is an essential read for anyone wanting to understand both how human rights advocacy works and how civil society organizations should engage on the international stage when they seek to pressure governments to restore and preserve human rights. * International Affairs Book Reviews *Table of ContentsIntroduction 1.
