Book excerpt: Catastrophes are on the rise due to climate change, as is their toll in terms of lives and livelihoods as world populations rise and people settle into hazardous places. While disaster response and management are traditionally seen as the domain of the natural and technical sciences, awareness of the importance and role of cultural adaptation is essential. This book catalogues a wide and diverse range of case studies of such disasters and human responses. This serves as inspiration for building culturally sensitive adaptations to present and future calamities, to mitigate their impact, and facilitate recoveries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this propulsive memoir from Achut Deng and Keely Hutton, inspired by a harrowing New York Times article, Don't Look Back tells a powerful story showing both the ugliness and the beauty of humanity, and the power of not giving up. I want life. After a deadly attack in South Sudan left six-year-old Achut Deng without a family, she lived in refugee camps for ten years, until a refugee relocation program gave her the opportunity to move to the United States. When asked why she should be given a chance to leave the camp, Achut simply told the interviewer: I want life. But the chance at starting a new life in a new country came with a different set of challenges. Some of them equally deadly. Taught by the strong women in her life not to look back, Achut kept moving forward, overcoming one obstacle after another, facing each day with hope and faith in her future. Yet, just as Achut began to think of the US as her home, a tie to her old life resurfaced, and for the first time, she had no choice but to remember her past.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ralph Waldo Emerson once said that Òall history becomes subjective,Ó that, in fact, Òproperly there is no history, only biography.Ó Today, EmersonÕs observation is hardly revolutionary for archaeologists; it has become conventional wisdom that the present is a battleground where interpretations of the events and meanings of the past are constantly being disputed. What were the major events? Whose lives did these events impact, and how? Who were the key players? What was their legacy? We know all too well that the answers to these questions can vary considerably depending on what political, social, or personal agenda is driving the response. Despite our keen eye for discerning historical spin doctors operating today, it has been only in recent years that archaeologists have begun exploring in detail how the past was used in the past itself. This volume of ten original works brings critical insight to this frequently overlooked dimension of earlier societies. Drawing on the concepts of identity, memory, and landscape, the contributors show how these points of entry can lead to substantially new accounts of how people understood their lives and why things changed as they did. Chapters include the archaeologies of the eastern Mediterranean, including Mesopotamia, Iran, Greece, and Rome; prehistoric Greece; Achaemenid and Hellenistic Armenia; Athens in the Roman period; Nubia and Egypt; medieval South India; and northern Maya Quintana Roo. The contributors show how and why, in each society, certain versions of the past were promoted while others were aggressively forgotten for the purpose of promoting innovation, gaining political advantage, or creating a new group identity. Commentaries by leading scholars Lynn Meskell and Jack Davis blend with newer voices to create a unique set of essays that is diverse but interrelated, exceptionally researched, and novel in its perspectives.

Book excerpt: America became a third world country instantly. Over three hundred million people no longer had leadership, finances, or status. Canada and the British Isles suffered the same fate. Now it was time for the other world powers to divvy up the spoils. Ridge Crenshaw can read the signs. When he sees the imminent demise of America slowly becoming a reality, he decides to develop an RV community in the hills of central Texas to give people an escape from the intensely congested and consuming world surrounding them. Ridge's plan is a throwback to simplistic life: working hand in hand, living off the land, and sticking together in every decision. But soon circumstances change, putting him in the leadership of over forty thousand people. As the global political-economical situation becomes more and more dire, Ridge finds himself thrown into a world of intrigue and danger he never imagined. From defending his compound from the constant threat of thieves and con artists to an assault by mechanized terrorists who want to kill and plunder. When Ridge is finally challenged to put his life in jeopardy and fly a suicide mission against a Chinese invasion, it seems as though all might be lost. Can Ridge protect the people and the land he loves? Can he save their livelihood and lifestyle from the downward spiral of poverty and warfare? Join author Kim Percival and discover the only true way to go Back to the Past and maintain a life of peace and love. Born in Arkansas but raised in Southern California, Kim Percival couldn't wait to get out and see the world. Many of his occupations and businesses allowed him to travel extensively. Almost twenty years ago while a pastor in Montana, he began to write fiction mixed with biblical fact. He is semi-retired and living in Liberty, Texas with his wife, Brenda.
