Pink and Blue
Jo B. Paoletti's journey through the history of children's clothing began when she posed the question, "When did we start dressing girls in pink and boys in blue?" To uncover the answer, she looks at advertising, catalogs, dolls, baby books, mommy blogs and discussion forums, and other popular media to examine the surprising shifts in attitudes toward color as a mark of gender in American children's clothing. She chronicles the decline of the white dress for both boys and girls, the introduction of rompers in the early 20th century, the gendering of pink and blue, the resurgence of unisex fashions, and the origins of today's highly gender-specific baby and toddler clothing.
The Migration of Power and North-South Inequalities
This book examines negotiations on migration in the Mediterranean. It argues that migration is a bargaining chip which countries in the South use to increase their leverage versus their counterparts in the North. This proposition opens up new understandings reframing relations of inequalities among states.

Structure and Function in Agroecosystem Design and Management
Structure and Function in Agroecosystem Design and Management presents an advanced discussion of the need to design agricultural systems that 1) increase reliance on biological interactions in agroecosystems as a means of decreasing dependence on the use of large quantities of agrochemicals and the consumption of fossil fuel energy and 2) continue
La collezione Paoletti. Seconda parte
Secondo di tre volumi (I-III), il Catalogo di Lucia Pirzio Biroli Stefanelli costituisce la pubblicazione integrale della collezione di stampi in vetro utilizzati nella prima metà del XIX secolo da “Bartolomeo Paoletti e Pietro figlio dimoranti di studio in piazza di Spagna num. 49” per la produzione in serie di impronte in scagliola di cammei e intagli in pietra dura di tutte le epoche, dall'antichità alla fine del XIX secolo. Il Catalogo è completato dalla ricostruzione dell'attività dei Paoletti a Roma e da un'analisi storico-critica della raccolta.
Advances in Prostaglandin and Leukotriene Research
This volume is the proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Advances in Prostaglandin and Leukotriene Research: Basic Science and New Clinical Applications, held in Florence, Italy, on June 4-8, 2000, which continues the tradition of covering both basic and clinical aspects of prostaglandin and leukotriene research. At this meeting particular emphasis was given to the potential application of the novel COX-2 inhibitors, the genetics of asthma relating to the production of leukotrienes, and novel cellular networks for the production of leukotrienes and lipoxins. Traditionally, as has been done in past meetings of this series, a considerable amount of new material was presented and discussed this year, with particular attention given to the newest clinical data.
Invertebrate Biodiversity as Bioindicators of Sustainable Landscapes
Reducing environmental hazard and human impact on different ecosystems, with special emphasis on rural landscapes is the main topic of different environmental policies designed in developed countries and needed in most developing countries. This book covers the bioindication approach of rural landscapes and man managed ecosystems including both urbanised and industrialised ones. The main techniques and taxa used for bioindication are considered in detail. Remediation and contamination is faced with diversity, abundance and dominance of biota, mostly invertebrates. Invertebrate Biodiversity as Bioindicators of Sustainable Landscapes provides a basic tool for students and scientists involved in landscape ecology and planning, environmental sciences, landscape remediation and pollution.
