First published in 1998, this book is an examination of antiracist
discourses and practices in France. It sets out to trace the
development of post-war French antiracism through the life of
antiracist organizations, setting this within a broader historical,
political and social context. It breaks new ground in that it
analyses antiracism as a body of ideas in its own right, rather
than as a mirror image of racism. The author uses previously
unpublished archival material from French organizations combined
with observations from current events. She argues that antiracist
discourses and practices are structured around four main themes:
discrimination, representation, solidarity and hegemony. While
perceptions of discrimination have evolved into complex
understandings of social exclusion, the representational functions
of antiracist groups were challenged by immigrant workers movements
themselves. Solidarity remained central to antiracist practices in
different political contexts. Underpinning these features lies a
hegemonic social project through which antiracists have sought to
promote a 'common sense' through political and educational
campaigns. The author concludes that French antiracism although
constantly changing and refocusing is now a pluralist, transversal,
hegemonic movement and an important component of civil society.

Major Robert Kurland has returned to the quiet vistas of his
village home to recuperate from the horrors of Waterloo. However
injured his body may be, his mind is as active as ever. Too active,
perhaps. When he glimpses a shadowy figure from his bedroom window
struggling with a heavy load, the tranquil facade of the village
begins to loom sinister...Unable to forget the incident, Robert
confides in his childhood friend, Miss Lucy Harrington. As the
dutiful daughter of the widowed rector, following up on the major's
suspicions offers a welcome diversion - but soon presents real
danger. Someone is intent on stopping their investigation. And in a
place where no one locks their doors, a series of thefts and the
disappearance of two young serving girls demands explanation...As
Robert grapples with his difficult recovery, he and Lucy try to
unearth the dark truth lurking within the village shadows, and stop
a killer waiting to strike again...

This is a wonderful, colorful tale about a little boy named Zachary
who loves to sleep with his favorite blankie and his favorite thumb
in his mouth. One night, he decides to take his thumb out of his
mouth and leave his bedroom for a magical world filled with animals
and green forests and blue seas. He looks to see which animals suck
their thumbs like him only to discover that many animals do not
even have thumbs. He finally realizes all the important things he
does with his thumbs and fingers besides sucking on them in his
mouth. It's a great excuse for parents to act out the characters of
the various animals while reading aloud.
