Jews of Florida: Centuries of Stories
This first comprehensive history of the Jews of Florida from colonial times to the present is a sweeping tapestry of voices. Despite not being officially allowed to live in Florida until 1763, Jewish immigrants escaping expulsions and exclusions were among the earliest settlers. They have been integral to every facet of Florida's growth, from tilling the land and developing early communities to boosting tourism and ultimately pushing mankind into space. The Sunshine State's Jews, working for the common good, have been Olympians, Nobel Prize winners, computer pioneers, educators, politicians, leaders in business and the arts and more, while maintaining their heritage to help ensure Jewish continuity for future generations. This rich narrative - accompanied by 700 images, most rarely seen - is the result of three-plus decades of grassroots research by author Marcia Jo Zerivitz, giving readers an incomparable look at the long and crucial history of Jews in Florida.
Manuel Rojas
Este libro reúne dieciocho ensayos acerca de la obra de Manuel Rojas (1896-1973) escritos por una nueva generación de lectores y lectoras con interés en interrogar el proyecto literario y de vida del autor desde aproximaciones críticas originales y novedosas. El oficio del escritor y las escenas de lectura, la representación de los espacios y el caminar, el diálogo con otras disciplinas artísticas y la cultura material, los posicionamientos de género y clase, son los ejes que articulan los escritos de este volumen y que nos invitan a revisitar la obra de Rojas prestando atención a sus narraciones más emblemáticas, pero también a aquellos textos menos conocidos que se vinculan con los géneros referenciales, la poesía, el teatro y la música. Pensado para un público amplio y diverso, esta publicación busca tensionar la imagen muchas veces infantilizada y neutralizada de la literatura rojiana. Lo anterior se complementa con la incorporación de imágenes relacionadas con la vida y obra del escritor, tomadas del Archivo Manuel Rojas, y que ponen en escena una mirada más íntima y desconocida en torno a uno de los escritores chilenos más importantes del siglo XX.

Coastal Foragers of the Gran Desierto
The result of nearly twenty years of interdisciplinary research, this volume contributes to the archaeological and paleoenvironmental knowledge of an important but lightly investigated hyperarid coastline at the heart of the Sonoran Desert. Focused on the coast near Puerto Peñasco, Sonora, Mexico, Coastal Foragers of the Gran Desierto examines the diverse groups occupying the coast for salt, abundant food sources, and shells for ornament manufacturing. The archaeological patterns demonstrated by the data gathered lead to the conclusion that, since ancient times, this coastal landscape was not a marginal zone but rather an important source of food and trade goods, and a pilgrimage destination that influenced broad and diverse communities across the Sonoran Desert and beyond.

Adolescents in the Internet Age
The tools of communication technology have transformed socialization and education of adolescents.

Because students know things that are unknown to teachers, their traditional relationship can shift to provide greater benefit for both parties if they pursue reciprocal learning. This book introduces a new set of core topics to reflect current conditions of the adolescent environment instead of life in yesterday’...
