"Of Essays and Reading in Early Modern Britain" traces the
co-evolution of the essay and the mode of literacy it enabled.
Focusing on the interactive processes of reading captured by the
form, "Of Essays" offers a new approach to early modern textuality.
It shows how the genre served to record, test and disseminate the
readerly skills required by a developing print culture, and how the
essay was adopted as a mechanism of natural science, the public
sphere, and the novel.
This book summarizes and explains the main approaches to age
estimation in the living, defining when a parameter may be of use
and raising awareness of its limitations. This text ensures that
practitioners recognize when an assessment is beyond their area of
expertise or beyond verification depending upon the clinical data
available. Each key approach to age evaluation has been allotted a
single chapter, written by an international leader in the
particular field. The book also includes summary chapters that
relay readily accessible data for use by the practitioner, and
includes important "ageing milestones."
This book is indispensable where problems of immigration and
legal standing, juvenile vs. adult criminal status, and
responsibilities of law enforcement to protect vulnerable persons
are key issues on a daily basis. Medical practitioners, forensic
practitioners such as pathology, odontology, anthropology and
nursing, lawyers, and police would find this book incredibly
useful.

Survival Strategies is a love story wrapped in a reckoning.
Arranged in three parts, this collection of poems follows a
narrative arc. The speaker, who is returning to the Sonoran of her
birth after many years away, takes us with her on a journey of
enlightenment. In the course of the first section, "The Sunniest
Place on Earth," we learn that the speaker has developed a deep
hatred of the desert (a reflection of herself) due to the way she
was treated and what she witnessed while being raised there. As we
move through to part 2, "Estivate So You Don't Die," we see the
speaker grappling with her past as a sensitive person amid the
rugged realities of life in the Southwest. As this section closes,
there is a long-form prose poem assembled as a mythopoetic fable
titled, "The Mother and the Mountain," that explores her mother's
childhood. This section brings revelation to some of what precedes
it and reveals the speaker as the buttress of this family who,
though an outsider, walks a path first laid by her mother. The
final section is titled simply, "After," and as its title suggests,
is a short set of poems that wrap up the arc and bring peace to our
speaker as she comes to realize she never hated the desert, nor
herself, as she is set free by the ocean of the Pacific Northwest.
