Howard University College of Dentistry at 140 Years:
Founded in 1881, Howard University College of Dentistry (HUCD) was one of the first United States dental schools to admit women equally as men. Now, HUCD celebrates one-hundred-and-forty years of educating minority dentists, dental specialists, and dental hygienists who practice in fifty states in America and fifty-three foreign countries. Howard University College of Dentistry 140 Years: Mission, Legacy, and Promise is an inspiring and informative look into the history of Howard University’s dental school and its mission to educate minority dental professionals who offer their skills to marginalized groups across the United States. It highlights how bleak the provision of black dental care was in the United States after the Civil War and how the HUCD has risen to meet a myriad of challenges for over a century. After two years of meetings, research, retrieval of archival materials, review of oral histories, and delving deep into the heart and soul of the dental school, three authors with close ties to HUCD share the college’s story with pride. The College of Dentistry’s mission, legacy, and promise still continue—Howard Forward!
The International Relations of the Persian Gulf
Gregory Gause's masterful book is the first to offer a comprehensive account of the international politics in the Persian Gulf across nearly four decades. The story begins in 1971 when Great Britain ended its protectorate relations with the smaller states of the lower Gulf. It traces developments in the region from the oil 'revolution' of 1973–4 through the Iranian revolution, the Iran-Iraq war and the Gulf war of 1990–1 to the toppling of Saddam Hussein in the American-led invasion of Iraq in 2003, bringing the story of Gulf regional politics up to 2008. The book highlights transnational identity issues, regime security and the politics of the world oil market, and charts the changing mix of interests and ambitions driving American policy. The author brings his experience as a scholar and commentator on the Gulf to this riveting account of one of the most politically volatile regions on earth.

Glaube und Geschlecht
Geschlechterfragen bilden bis heute einen der wesentlichen Unterschiede zwischen Katholizismus und Protestantismus. Der Band fragt nach Entwicklungen innerhalb der christlichen Kirchen wie nach Wechselwirkungen von Glaube und Geschlecht in andere Weltreligionen. Das Verhältnis von Glaube und Geschlecht bildet ein Grundlagenthema der Reformation. Der vorliegende Sammelband untersucht Bezüge, die erstmals von Frauen und Männern in der reformatorischen Bewegung des 16. Jahrhunderts hergestellt und gelebt wurden und fragt sowohl nach den Anteilen von Männern und Frauen an Kirche und Religiosität als auch nach ihren religiös begründeten oder bedingten Rollen, Räumen, Aufgaben und Lebenswegen, nach Gewinnen, Verlusten und nach Kontinuitätslinien bis in die heutige Gesellschaft.
The Advantage of Disadvantage
Does protest influence political representation? If so, which groups are most likely to benefit from collective action? The Advantage of Disadvantage makes a provocative claim: protests are most effective for disadvantaged groups. According to author LaGina Gause, legislators are more responsive to protesters than non-protesters, and after protesting, racial and ethnic minorities, people with low incomes, and other low-resource groups are more likely than white and affluent protesters to gain representation. Gause also demonstrates that online protests are less effective than in-person protests. Drawing on literature from across the social sciences as well as formal theory, a survey of policymakers, quantitative data, and vivid examples of protests throughout U.S. history, The Advantage of Disadvantage provides invaluable insights for scholars and activists seeking to understand how groups gain representation through protesting.
