While the previous two volumes in this series were based upon
methodol ogy, theory, and the relationship between ecology and
population structure, this book can be viewed as an in-depth case
study. The population genetics of a multitude of diverse groups
geographically distributed throughout the world was examined in the
first two volumes. In contrast, this volume focuses upon a single
ethnic group, the Black Caribs (Garifuna) of Central America and
St. Vincent Island, and explores the interrelationships among the
ethnohistory, sociocultural characteristics, demography,
morphology, and genetic structure of the group. This volume offers
a broad and intensive treatment of the Black Caribs and their
interactions with surrounding populations. My interest in the
genetics of the Black Caribs was sparked by an accidental meeting
in Amsterdam, Holland, in March 1975. A conversation with Nancie
Gonzalez at the Applied Anthropology Meetings revealed the
"truth-is-stranger than.fiction" history of the Black Carib peoples
of the Caribbean. This was a popUlation with a small-sized founding
group and a unique biological success story. Nancie Gonzalez was
particularly interested in estimating the Carib Indian admixture in
the contemporary Garifuna popUlation. Given my previous experi ence
in estimating Spanish and African admixture in the Tlaxcaltecan
population (whose gene pool consisted predominantly of Indian
alleles), a group that appeared to be primarily African with some
Indian admixture was of great interest. Aside from the
ethnohistorical interest, I believe that such a population may add
conSiderably to our understanding of the inheritance of complex
morphological traits."
Between the Sack of Rome by the Gauls in 390 BC and the middle of
the second century BC, a part-time army of Roman peasants, under
the leadership of the ruling oligarchy, conquered first Italy and
then the whole of the Mediterranean. The loyalty of these
marrauding heroes, and of the Roman population as a whole, to their
leaders was assured by a share in the rewards of victory, rewards
which became steadily less accessible as the empire expanded -
promoting a decline in loyalty of cataclysmic proportions. Wars,
rural impoverishments, civil discord and slavery are a few of the
subjects covered in this study.
The role of nutrition is fundamental to human health and
well-being. It is, however, often overlooked when treating people
with mental health problems. This handbook explains the science
behind nutrition and its effects on mental health.

Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Wahhab (1703-1792) aroused great controversy
in his lifetime. More than two centuries after his death he still
elicits strong views. For some he is the model of a pious religious
activist who fought to establish a regime of Islamic godliness in
the least promising of environments. For others, especially Muslims
associated with mystic orders or who belong to the Shi'i branch of
Islam, he is a hate figure. Few would contest that he shaped the
Muslim world. For over two hundred and fifty years the Wahhabi
religious movement has rested on the twin pillars of a clear,
compelling credo and an indissoluble alliance with temporal power
in Arabia. Absolutist, uncompromising theology and political and
religious ambition combined to make it the dominant force there,
turning its champions, the Al Sa'ud clan, from petty rulers of a
middle-sized settlement with a talent for balancing interests, into
the guardians of Islam's Holy Places, disposing of the earth's
greatest identified oil reserves. This thought-provoking and
incisive biography, which charts the relationship between religious
doctrine, political power and events on the ground, is ideal for
readers interested in uncovering the life and convictions of the
man who founded the Wahhabi movement and a dynastic alliance
between his clerical descendants and Saudi princes that has lasted
to the present day.

Giles Kirk, son of sharecroppers, rose to power and wealth through
greed, guile, and manipulation. But his skillfully fabricated
facade collapsed when Spoony Pitt stumbled back into his life. The
caller was Giles Kirk, the town's lawyer, dressed, as always, like
a Boston Banker. He wore paten leather boots in which were tucked
fashionable brown trousers, a charcoal vest over a white shirt, his
usual black string tie with silver tips, a dark blue vest and a
black cotton coat with four sky blue buttons. On his head sat a
broad brimmed leather hat, which he removed and handed to Joseph.
His chin seemed to jut more than usual that morning. That and his
furrowed brow suggested that he was in a bad mood. He was a forty
year-old man of average height, and in demeanor he seemed to be
sincere, honest, wealthy, powerful and happily married. But in
truth, he was a deeply unhappy man who pretended to be what he
wasn't, for he had weaknesses the opposite of what he projected --
dishonesty, miserliness, insecurity and sexual adventurousness.
Polly was in her early forties and still a handsome woman. She had
a short, lithe body topped with a nest of graying auburn hair. Her
eyes were light green and quite attractive. Her face was almost
circular and she had smooth, rounded cheeks, expressive lips and
even, white teeth. In the shallow part of Giles' mind, he thought
her face pretty, but not beautiful. But beneath his shallow
thoughts, in the hidden part his mind, the part kept secret from
his every-day thoughts, the part that never lied, the part that
guided him, Polly's face was powerfully alluring. Geography
dictated where he found himself, that bulbous bundle of pretense
and misery that called itself Spoony Pitt. The coast was not a
straight line between New Orleans and Acton. Ships and boats could
sail in a straight line across the sea, but a man afoot, unless he
could walk on water, would have to trace a near semicircle from New
Orleans to Acton. At the moment, Spoony was sitting at the end of a
wagon with his legs dangling down, sharing the wagon bed with
lowing, pooping cows, lurching from side to side and fantasizing
about his next meal. The soles of his shoes were holey, and the
tops were filthy with mud, wagon grease and offal. His face was
shaggy with a three day beard. The striped pants he wore, once of
finely tailored wool, had holes in their knees, and the thighs bore
stains of many foods and spices that never quite reached his
cavernous mouth. The top three buttons of his trousers were
unbuttoned, and a yards-long black belt held his pants to his
massive waistline. He wore a once-white shirt that was gray from
lack of washing, and streaked with stains of sauces too thin for a
fork, and dribbles of chewing tobacco from his lazy lips. The black
wool coat he wore had rumpled tails and was wildly unsuited for the
hot, humid climate in which he lived. But to Spoony, it was
'gentleman's apparel, ' the sort that an Englishman would wear, and
as Spoony fancied himself a gentleman, he dressed accordingly.
