P. Martin Ostrander's Dangerous Four Series
The Dangerous Four were having a blast sneaking out to perform on the stage and hear the audience cheer. Now that their secret is discovered, emotions run high and friendships are tested as Left-y, Rightey, Rousey, and Drummey have to figure out what to do with someone knowing who they really are, and risk everyone discovering their secret. With the addition of a new member, as well as a manager, the five friends work through their problems and become stronger than ever. Their hard work pays off and The Dangerous Four are offered a gig to play with all the big acts in The Urbandome and ride a prototype tour bus. It sounds like a dream come true, but all the pressure to practice and perform has a price. The Dangerous Four practice constantly and begin to wonder if they should continue when one member announces they must quit the band. Performing at The Urbandome and riding the tour bus could send their career soaring, or will they crash down in flames? The exciting adventure continues with Left-y, Rightey, Rousey, Drummey, and The Jazerae in P. Martin Ostrander's Dangerous Four Series: Book # 2: The Deadly Crash.
Mythologizing Performance
Building on numerous original close readings of works by Homer, Hesiod, and other ancient Greek poets, Richard P. Martin articulates a broad and precise poetics of archaic Greek verse. The ancient Greek hexameter poetry of such works as the Iliad and the Odyssey differ from most modern verbal art because it was composed for live, face-to-face performance, often in a competitive setting, before an audience well versed in mythological and ritual lore. The essays collected here span Martin's acclaimed career and explore ways of reading this poetic heritage using principles and evidence from the comparative study of oral traditions, literary and speech-act theories, and the ethnographic record. ...
A Guide to the Puritans: A Topical and Scriptural Index to the Writings of the Puritans and Their Successors
The writings of the Puritans, states Robert P. Martin in his preface, 'are a rich banquet table loaded with solid nourishment for God's people.' And yet, this banquet is often hard to access because it can be difficult to know where to start with the Puritans or where to find help on a specific topic or text of Scripture. Martin's Guide, available for the first time in hardback, aims to help the would-be feaster access the nourishment available from the Puritans and their successors. That last word is significant, because the scope of Martin's indexing work extended not merely to those in the 16th and 17th centuries who might properly be called 'Puritans, ' but also to figures of the 18th, 1...

The Black Extended Family
Misunderstood and stereotyped, the black family in America has been viewed by some as pathologically weak while others have acclaimed its resilience and strength. Those who have drawn these conflicting conclusions have gnerally focused on the nuclear family—husband, wife, and dependent children. But as Elmer and Joanne Martin point out in this revealing book, a unit of this kind often is not the center of black family life. What appear to be fatherless, broken homes in our cities may really be vital parts of strong and flexible extended families based hundreds of miles away—usually in a rural area. Through their eight-year study of some thirty extended families, the Martins find that economic pressures, including federal tax and welfare laws, have begun to make the extended family's flexibility into a liability that threatens its future.

A United Kingdom?
The human geography of the UK is currently being reshaped by a number of forces - such as globalisation, transition in the organisations of production, the changing character of state intervention, and changing relationships with Europe. A consideration of the impacts of these forces on economic, social and political landscapes is, therefore, an urgent task. At the same time, enduring institutional features of the British economy and polity are also having important influences on socio-economic processes. The result is a complex mosaic of uneven development, which belies the notion of simplistic regional contrasts. Rather than simply mapping spatial inequality, 'A United Kingdom?' charts the processes underpinning uneven development at a range of scales and for a number of key topics. The book draws upon and synthesises the latest contemporary research findings and places emphasis on the interrelated nature of economic, social and political geographies. It treats the human geographies of the UK in a coherent and integrated way, and asks whether contemporary processes of change are tending towards the reduction of socio-spatial divisions or their reproduction in new forms.
