Gastropolitics and the Specter of Race
In recent years, Peru has transformed from a war-torn country to a global high-end culinary destination. Connecting chefs, state agencies, global capital, and Indigenous producers, this “gastronomic revolution” makes powerful claims: food unites Peruvians, dissolves racial antagonisms, and fuels development. Gastropolitics and the Specter of Race critically evaluates these claims and tracks the emergence of Peruvian gastropolitics, a biopolitical and aesthetic set of practices that reinscribe dominant racial and gendered orders. Through critical readings of high-end menus and ethnographic analysis of culinary festivals, guinea pig production, and national-branding campaigns, this work explores the intersections of race, species, and capital to reveal links between gastronomy and violence in Peru.
Artful Truths
"From social media to the return of the personal essay to the rise of "autofiction," it seems we inhabit an era of unprecedented self-display. But self-display in its literary form, the memoir, has been around for ages, always freighted with formal and philosophical complexity from Augustine's Confessions on. In this book, philosopher Helena de Bres tackles the philosophy of memoir. What is memoir? Is all memoir really fiction? Should memoirists aim to tell the truth? What do memoirists owe the people they write about? And finally: Why write a memoir at all?"--
The Book Of Gingerbread
Gingerbread is beloved the world over, its very smell and taste signalling that the holidays are here. The Book Of Gingerbread conjures up inspiring recipes for cakes and bakes, cookies, desserts, drinks and gingerbread houses. From everyday bakes like Maple and Ginger cupcakes, Sticky Toffee Gingerbread Pudding and Ginger Spiced Banana Bread, to spooky creations such as Ginger Pumpkin Pie-thon, Baba Yaga's Hut and a terrifying Gingerbread Demogorgon, Helena Garcia's inventive recipes take gingerbread flavours to new heights. And what could be more festive than Gingerbread Trifle, Traditional Gingerbread Men (well, sort of) and a Gingerbread Pub dressed up for Christmas, all washed down with a warming Gingerbread Latte or (for the grown-ups) Gingerbread Eggnog. Featuring templates for the gingerbread houses and a beautiful photo for every recipe, The Book of Gingerbread will brighten up even the darkest evenings – and give you a tingle in your toes.

Legal Experiments for Development in Latin America
This book provides a nuanced picture of how diverse legal debates on the pursuit of economic development and modernization have played out in Latin America since independence. The opposing concepts of modernization theory and Dependency Theory can be seen to be playing out within the field of legal transformation, as some legal analysts define law as a closed, formal, rational system, and others see law as inseparable from economic, social and political change. Legal experiments have followed these trends, in some cases using legal instruments to guarantee classical, civil and political rights, and in others demanding radical transformation of existing legal structures. This book traces thes...
Breaking Through the Clouds
An inspiring picture book about the meteorologist whose discoveries helped us understand how weather works When Joanne Simpson (1923-2010) was a girl, she sailed her boat beneath the puffy white clouds of Cape Cod. As a pilot, she flew her plane so high, its wings almost touched them. And when World War II began and Joanne moved to the University of Chicago, a professor asked her to teach Air Force officers about those very clouds and the weather-changing winds. As soon as the war ended, Joanne decided to seriously study the clouds she had grown to love so much. Her professors laughed. They told her to go home. They told her she was no longer needed. They told her, "No woman ever got a docto...
