The director of the acclaimed 'Moon' (2009), Duncan Jones, helms
this sci-fi action thriller starring Jake Gyllenhaal. Soldier
Colter Stevens (Gyllenhaal) wakes up in the body of an unknown man
and discovers that he is part of a government mission to identify
the bomber of a Chicago commuter train. The experiment, known as
the 'Source Code', enables its subjects to take on a person's
identity for the last eight minutes of their lives. Colter has been
programmed to relive the incident over and over again, piecing
together clues until he can figure out who the suspect is and
prevent another large-scale terrorist attack. Michelle Monaghan,
Vera Farmiga and Jeffrey Wright co-star.

50 feet away. Other chapters will make you go "hmm, I've done that
stupid crazy thing." Visit a haunted light house, save your
daughter's wedding departure, and many other articles that
Nor'westing readers requested reprints.

Now in its fifth edition, this leading reader has been updated with
new readings and visual sources. This edition includes an added
final chapter on current social movements to help students reflect
on the ecological realities that inform their world. In addition,
the "Legacies of Colonialism" chapter has been restored to give
students an understanding of the deep roots of the problems
explored. Instead of a separate chapter on women and social change,
women's voices have been woven more seamlessly throughout the book
to reflect women's parity and equity in history. Covering key
historical themes from independence to the present, the reader's
unique "problems" organization provides a thematic complement to
narrative accounts of modern Latin American history. By focusing
each chapter on a single concept or interpretive problem-such as
nationalism, slavery, or social revolution-the text engages
students in the analysis of historical sources and, at the same
time, introduces them to the twists and turns of historiography.
With its innovative combination of primary and secondary sources
and thoughtful editorial analysis, this text is designed
specifically to stimulate critical thinking in a wide range of
courses on Latin American history since independence.
