Download or read book Cuc: Flower Of The Delta written by Peter Geniesse and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2004 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CUC: Flower of the Delta is love story of two young Vietnamese refugees who survived the horrors of war in Southeast Asia, escaped by boat to the camps of Thailand and were resettled in the United States in 1981. It's a little-told story of the tragic fallout from the Vietnam War, one that millions of Southeast Asians--and Americans--can relate to. Most of the refugees found sponsors in United States and elsewhere, but after more than two decades they still have no place to really call home.
Download or read book Illegal written by Peter A. Geniesse and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why have millions of Mexicans and other Latinos fled their homelands and risked their lives to come to the U.S. in search of a job? Why are they living in the shadows, ever fearful of being discovered by the migras and of being deported? Why is the United States, a nation of immigrants, which often welcomed and recruited millions of Mexicans workers in the past, now spending billions of dollars on walls, border patrols, detention centers and workplace raids to get them out and keep them out? The issue is as complex as it is divisive. There are root causes, of course, and U.S. politics and trade policies have played a major role in producing today's immigration crisis. But the migrants themselves, real people with real experiences related throughout "Illegal," are the most credible witnesses to the system gone awry as well as the injustices suffered and endured on both sides of the border. Let them tell you their poignant stories. Rosa lost her husband to the drug wars and Rogelio lost his best friend in the desert. Ernesto lost his farm. Enrique was deported after a workplace raid. And Cresencio and Hector now are living the American dream, thanks to the amnesty program of the 1980s. That's just a sample.
Book Synopsis Saints & Sinners by : Peter A. Geniesse
Download or read book Saints & Sinners written by Peter A. Geniesse and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2016-07-22 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I once was led to believe that the United States of America and the Vatican coulddo no wrong. Th en one day south of the border I realized that Uncle Sam was not such a nice guy, and the pope wasnt either. U.S. troops and advisors ran the Banana Republics, propped up dictators and trained the military to oppress the poor. In those days, the Catholic Church hierarchy in Latin America mostly sided with the status quo, dictators, military and wealthy. But in 1968, the bishops dramaticallydeclared a preferential option for the poor and later embraced liberation theology,aiming to bring heaven down to earth. It sounded a lot like Marxism to the Vatican,especially to Pope John Paul II, a staunch opponent of communism. He set out to appoint only bishops who were hostile to liberation theology. Pope Benedict XVI followed suit. Pope Francis, however, once a slum priest in Argentina, gave new life to the movement which was born and raised in Latin America. Most of the characters profiled in this book subscribe to a version of liberation theology and a preference for the poor. Th eir honor roll includes Ivan Illich and Ted Hesburgh, Salvador Allende and Samuel Ruiz, Oscar Romero and Daniel Ortega, Fidel Castro and Jean-Bertrand Aristide, and an actual, canonized Chilean priest named Alberto Hurtado. The reader may decide who is a saint and who is a sinner.

Book Synopsis Advances in Pest Management in Commercial Flowers by : Suprakash Pal
Download or read book Advances in Pest Management in Commercial Flowers written by Suprakash Pal and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-02-04 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Floricultural crops all over the world are challenged by a number of insect and mite pests. The pest scenario is changing, and with climate change the instances of new pest incidences have become a more common problem. Like other crops, the intensive cultivation of commercial flowers has accentuated pest problems, as farmers tend to use more agricultural chemicals, which, in turn, increase the problems of pesticide resistance, pest resurgence, and residues leading to health hazards. This volume, Advances in Pest Management in Commercial Flowers, looks at the major challenges and improvements in this growing area today. It first provides an informative overview of worldwide pests of important commercial flowers. It explores a number of important issues in this area, such as the role of climate change on insect pests of commercial flowers and the synthetic chemicals and their possible harmful effects on the environment.

Book Synopsis Recent Advances in the Diagnosis and Management of Plant Diseases by : L.P. Awasthi
Download or read book Recent Advances in the Diagnosis and Management of Plant Diseases written by L.P. Awasthi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a compilation of the most challenging and significant chapters on the diagnosis and management of important bacterial, fungal, viral, viroid, phytoplasma, non parasitic diseases and various physiological disorders, in various crops. The chapters have been contributed by eminent plant pathologists, having wide experience of teaching and research on various crops with different types of diseases, which cause great economic losses. The book would be very useful for students, teachers and researchers of plant pathology. This book highlights recent advances made in the development of new types of resistance in host plants and alternative strategies for managing plant diseases to improve food quality and reduce the negative public health impact associated with plant diseases. Having entered into 21st century advancements in the Diagnosis of Plant Pathogens and Plant Disease Management need to be closely examined and adequately applied, so that newer challenges facing plant pathology could be adequately addressed in attaining food security for the growing population. Substantial advancements have been made in terms of expanding knowledge base of the biology of plant-microbial interactions, disease management strategies and application and practice of Plant Pathology. Application of molecular biology in Plant Pathology has greatly improved our ability to detect plant pathogens and in increasing our understanding, their ecology and epidemiology. Similarly, new technologies and resources have been evolved for the development of sustainable crop protection systems by different control strategies against various pests and pathogens that are important components of the integrated pest management programme. Natural products and chemical compounds discovered as a result of basic research and molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis have led to the development of “biorational” pesticides. Biological control has been found to be the most significant approach to plant health management during the twentieth century and promises using modern biotechnology, to be even more significant in the twenty-first century.
