Negotiators of Change covers the history of ten tribal groups including the Cherokee, Iroquois and Navajo -- as well as tribes with less known histories such as the Yakima, Ute, and Pima-Maricopa. The book contests the idea that European colonialization led to a loss of Native American women's power, and instead presents a more complex picture of the adaption to, and subversion of, the economic changes introduced by Europeans. The essays also discuss the changing meainings of motherhood, women's roles and differing gender ideologies within this context.

Straighter: The Rules of Orthodontics discusses a new paradigm for the practice of orthodontics. It is a radical departure from the traditional approach to clinical decision-making and practice management. Drs.

The book rests on the premise that orthodontics is in large part elective and falls under the category of enhancement healthcare. With that in mind, the authors suggest that orthodontists treat consumers rather than patients and these consumers are seeking an orthodontic intervention that is effective, efficient, fair priced, and easily accessible. Readers will gain insight into the current market trends in orthodontics and learn how to modify their mindset and office systems to align with the needs of the consumer.

Lured by all the twenty-eighth state offered, Butler, his wife, twelve children, and seven slaves gambled big in 1852, migrating from Mississippi in covered wagons to the unknown prairies of Texas.
