Predatory Practices
WHAT'S A CAT GOTTA DO TO MAKE SOME CASH AROUND HERE? When the K'Nes finally overthrew their human occupiers six months ago, it should have been a new chapter in the life of businesscat Miao K'Rrowr K'Heth... but since then, he's been demoted, swindled out of his savings, and lost the love of his life. Heth is determined to get it all back, and soon... but high reward means high risk. Desperate enough to take the most dangerous smuggling jobs, wheeling and dealing his way through human space, Heth is reluctantly drawn into the three-way civil war raging among the humans - a war that threatens to spill over onto the K'Nes, a species of hyper-capitalistic floating felines who just want to be left alone to make money.

Stocks will rise, bullets will fly, and empires will fall before his predatory practices are through.

From Slavery to Agrarian Capitalism in the Cotton Plantation South
Reidy has produced one of the most thoughtful treatments to date of a critical moment in southern history, placing the social transformation of the South in the context of 'the age of capital' and the changes in the markets, ideologies, etc. of the Atlantic world system. Better than anyone perhaps, Reidy has elaborated both the large and small narratives of this development, connecting global forces with the initiatives and reactions of ordinary southerners, black and white.--Thomas C. Holt, University of Chicago "Joseph Reidy's detailed analysis of social and economic developments in central Georgia during and after slavery will take its place among the standard works on these subjects. Its discussions of the expansion of the cotton kingdom and of the changes after emancipation make it necessary reading for all concerned with southern and African-American history.--Stanley Engerman, University of Rochester "Successfully places the experience of one region's people into the larger theoretical context of world capitalist development and in the process challenges other scholars to do the same.--Rural Sociology
Fungi from Yuggoth
