The Ghosts of Newgrange; Ancient Ceremony Remembered
Trusting in the sudden and unexpected past life experiences of a modern man, the author was able to record what this man saw at some of the earliest ceremonies held at the beginning of Irish history. Newgrange emerges as a place of immense spiritual power. It was the seat of deep beliefs about Life, Death, the Cosmos and the people's place in it. In light of the information from these memories, the roll of Newgrange is redefined both for its earliest celebrants, and for those of us today who walk a spiritual path which holds the earth at its base.
Gender and Sexual Agency
Gender and Sexual Agency considers how heterosexual Latin American, Asian American, and Caucasian American youth negotiate sexual encounters. In particular, this book examines sexual agency, exploring the question of why some young people assertively pursue what they want in a sexual encounter, while others go along with sexual activity they do not want.

Using interviews to support her theoretical argument, Albanesi offers profiles of eleven different types of sexual agency, ranging fro...
Sexuality, Rurality, and Geography

The chapters present historical and contemporary case studies of the constitution and management of intimate sexual lives and relationships in rur...
River Republic
Daniel McCool chronicles the surging grassroots movement to bring America's rivers back to life and ensure they remain pristine for future generations. This book confirms the surprising news that America's rivers are indeed returning to a healthier, free-flowing condition. Through passion and dedication, ordinary people are reclaiming the American landscape, forming a nation-wide "river republic" of concerned citizens from all backgrounds and sectors of society. McCool profiles the individuals he calls "instigators," who initiated the fight for these waterways and have succeeded in the near-impossible task of challenging and changing the status quo. He ties the history, culture, and fate of America to its rivers and presents their restoration as a microcosm mirroring American beliefs, livelihoods, and an increasing awareness of our shared environmental fate.
