Paul Hansen: Being There
This is Paul Hansens first major retrospective. In this book, we get to follow his extensive coverage of the Arab Spring, of Gaza, the West Bank and the?frozen" wars in Ukraine and the Crimea; natural disasters in Haiti, political unrest in Lebanon and suffering in Afghanistan; new light is shed on the seemingly intractable Israeli-Palestinian conflict. A chapter is devoted to people displaced by war and famine.0The book contains almost 200 of his absolute best shots.
Escaping Japan
The idea that Japan is a socially homogenous, uniform society has been increasingly challenged in recent years. This book takes the resulting view further by highlighting how Japan, far from singular or monolithic, is socially and culturally complex. It engages with particular life situations, exploring the extent to which personal experiences and lifestyle choices influence this contemporary multifaceted nation-state. Adopting a theoretically engaged ethnographic approach, and considering a range of "escapes" both physical and metaphorical, this book provides a rich picture of the fusions and fissures that comprise Japan and Japaneseness today.
Blacklist Protocol
Coast Guard Commander Jared Stanton finally gets the call he's been dreading for years - a British gasoline tanker has been attacked by a speedboat firing anti-tank rockets and the ship, along with its eleven million gallons of explosive cargo, is burning inside San Pedro Harbor. When Homeland Security receives a report from Israeli Intelligence indicating a large shipment of weapons has been split into smaller parcels and shipped into the port, Stanton knows the present crisis is only the tip of the iceberg. Stanton and Sea Marshal Rita Velasco hit the docks of San Pedro Harbor looking for the weapons and uncover a harbor pilot with ties to the Irish Republican Army, a smuggling ring run by longshoreman, and numerous glaring weaknesses in current harbor security. When Rita Velasco is taken hostage by the conspirators, Stanton follows her trail across the border into Mexico where he must take the law into his own hands to save her and end the threat to our nation's ports.
Gratitude
The poems in GRATITUDE are ones of humility as well as thankfulness. Raised in the West and influenced by the great Chinese and Japanese masters, Sam Hamill's poems draw from both traditions returning us "to that world beyond/words, which are only/a reflection of desire".
