Maura Jane Farrelly explores the history of the nineteenth-century United States via the lives of three people from prominent East Coast families who moved to Wyoming to escape a host of humiliations—only to discover that by 1890 the West was no longer a place where anyone could go to be forgotten and start over.

When the Island had Fish is the story of a tiny island, Vinalhaven Maine, that offers a close look at the significant history of Maine fishing particularly, but also offers perspective on the impact of industrialized fishing on small fishing villages all over the United States and the world. Vinalhaven's documented habitation by fishermen dates back over 5000 years, and still today lobstering is the primary source of employment for its 1100 year round residents; islanders currently harvest lobsters at a rate almost unrivaled nationally.The book investigates the changing meanings of the notion of a “fishing community” and of community members changing relationships with the natural world and with international commerce. Through this broader lens, it sheds light on the way that species, including humans, are impacted by – and at moments contribute to - climate change, environmental degradation, and sustainable and unsustainable uses of natural resources. When the Island had Fish also provides a meditation on America's past and future. Vinalhaven's fishing history is in every way America's history. It's a story of habitations by native peoples and European-American settlers, their use of natural resources, their communities and kin, and their efforts to find ways to live in a harsh environment. Anyone interested in creating a viable collective future will learn from reading about the Penobscot Bay fisheries and fishermen, and about Vinalhaven's citizens'expansive knowledge of craft, husbandry, self-governance and community independence, and interdependence.

Las memorias de Bono, el vocalista principal de U2 •••EDICIÓN EN ESPAÑOL••• Se trata de uno los artistas más icónicos de la música en todo el mundo y se han escrito miles y miles de páginas sobre su carrera; sin embargo, en Surrender, es ahora Bono quien se sienta ante la hoja en blanco para contarnos, por primera vez y en primera persona, los detalles de su formidable vida y las personas con las que la ha compartido. Su indistinguible voz nos conduce en un recorrido que va desde su infancia en Dublín, pasando por la repentina muerte de su madre cuando tenía 14 años y el insólito camino que hubo de recorrer U2 para convertirse en uno de los grupos de rock más influyentes del planeta, hasta llegar a un examen de las más de dos décadas que ha dedicado al activismo, luchando contra el SIDA y la pobreza extrema. La escritura de Bono, con la que ha realizado un ejercicio de autorreflexión honesta, no exenta de un saludable sentido del humor, logra abrir más el foco sobre su vida, así como sobre su familia, sus amigos y sus creencias, los cuales le han servido de apoyo, acicate y ejemplo durante todos estos años. Críticas: «Querido B: ¿por qué no te rindes ante la evidencia de que eres un GENIO?» Penélope Cruz «La autobiografía sorprendentemente íntima de Bono es una mirada a sus mayores amores y desamores. [...] Aunque la grandiosidad de U2 pueda convertirse a veces en autoparodia, la emoción que impulsa al grupo se narra vívidamente en Surrender». Cultture «Prosa excéntrica la de Bono, como su corazón (literalmente defectuoso desde el nacimiento), aunque lo suficientemente atractiva como para satisfacer al más inquieto de sus fans. [...] Libro atractivo en todos los sentidos». Enrique Turpin, Zenda «Con su inseparable mujer, Alison Stewart, como hilo conductor, Bono apuesta por una estructura nada convencional e hilvana (respetando una básica pulsión cronológica) canciones con experiencias». Javier López Rejas, El Cultural «La oportunidad del rock como profecía que se cuenta en Surrender con la pomposidad intacta de entonces, pero en boca de un hombre de 60 años: la representación misma de la deriva.Del rock y la religión a la política, que comienza a tocar a los músicos piadosos». Mario de las Heras, El Debate «Un Bono en modo humilde, orgulloso de sus logros, pero dispuesto a encajar sus pasos en falso». Jordi Biancotto, La Vanguardia «La escritura de Bono, con la que ha realizado un ejercicio de autorreflexión honesta (no exenta de un saludable sentido del humor), logra abrir más el foco sobre su vida, así como sobre su familia, sus amigos y sus creencias, los cuales le han servido de apoyo, acicate y ejemplo durante todos estos años».

NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • Bono—artist, activist, and the lead singer of Irish rock band U2—has written a memoir: honest and irreverent, intimate and profound, Surrender is the story of the remarkable life he's lived, the challenges he's faced, and the friends and family who have shaped and sustained him. • A VOGUE BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR “A brilliant, very funny, very revealing autobiography-through-music. Maybe the best book ever written about being a rockstar.” —Caitlin Moran, award-winning journalist “When I started to write this book, I was hoping to draw in detail what I'd previously only sketched in songs. The people, places, and possibilities in my life. Surrender is a word freighted with meaning for me. Growing up in Ireland in the seventies with my fists up (musically speaking), it was not a natural concept. A word I only circled until I gathered my thoughts for the book. I am still grappling with this most humbling of commands. In the band, in my marriage, in my faith, in my life as an activist. Surrender is the story of one pilgrim's lack of progress... With a fair amount of fun along the way.” —Bono As one of the music world's most iconic artists and the cofounder of the organizations ONE and (RED), Bono's career has been written about extensively. But in Surrender, it's Bono who picks up the pen, writing for the first time about his remarkable life and those he has shared it with. In his unique voice, Bono takes us from his early days growing up in Dublin, including the sudden loss of his mother when he was fourteen, to U2's unlikely journey to become one of the world's most influential rock bands, to his more than twenty years of activism dedicated to the fight against AIDS and extreme poverty. Writing with candor, self-reflection, and humor, Bono opens the aperture on his life—and the family, friends, and faith that have sustained, challenged, and shaped him. Surrender's subtitle, 40 Songs, One Story, is a nod to the book's forty chapters, which are each named after a U2 song. Bono has also created forty original drawings for Surrender, which appear throughout the book.

The Oxford Dictionary of Family Names of Ireland contains more than 3,800 entries covering the majority of family names that are established and current in Ireland, both in the Republic and in Northern Ireland. It establishes reliable and accurate explanations of historical origins (including etymologies) and provides variant spellings for each name as well as its geographical distribution, and, where relevant, genealogical and bibliographical notes for family names that have more than 100 bearers in the 1911 census of Ireland. Of particular value are the lists of early bearers of family names, extracted from sources ranging from the medieval period to the nineteenth century, providing for the first time, the evidence on which many surname explanations are based, as well as interesting personal names, locations and often occupations of potential family forbears. This unique Dictionary will be of the greatest interest not only to those interested in Irish history, students of the Irish language, genealogists, and geneticists, but also to the general public, both in Ireland and in the Irish diaspora in North America, Australia, and elsewhere.

La musica degli U2 ha scosso il mondo intero, raccontando gli umori della società contemporanea, dalla periferia di Dublino ai sobborghi degli Stati Uniti, dalla Germania riunita all'Europa moderna, e lo ha fatto assorbendo stili e suoni diversi, mettendo in luce un'evoluzione costante che per quattro decenni ha accompagnato gli ascoltatori di tutto il mondo. Dal selvaggio post-punk degli esordi al blues affogato nella spiritualità, dal rock post-industriale filtrato dall'elettronica al ritorno alle origini, in una forma più sobria e matura. La carriera degli U2 sa di miracoloso: quasi nessuno è riuscito a rimanere per così tanto tempo sulla cresta dell'onda e a raccogliere una serie così sterminata di successi, infrangendo ogni record, seducendo generazioni di ascoltatori. Una band che non si è mai piegata alle mode, neanche nelle sue vesti più commerciali, e che ha influenzato correnti musicali grazie all'invenzione di suoni con una tecnica basilare, derivata dal punk e dal post-punk, ma incredibile nella ricerca sonora. Il materiale accumulato in quarant'anni di carriera è molto, e tutto costruito con acuta intelligenza. Il fuoco indimenticabile non è solo una biografia, ma è anche e soprattutto un'analisi di ogni album e di ogni brano rilasciato dalla band irlandese. Un lavoro minuzioso che racconta la musica, spiega i testi e interpreta la filosofia alla base del mito U2.

Da oltre 40 anni sulle scene con gli U2, in pochissimo tempo Paul David Hewson, in arte Bono, è divenuto uno dei protagonisti del panorama musicale internazionale, calamitando l'attenzione su di sé al di là della carriera discografica della band di Dublino. Voce intrigante e performer di rara effi acia, ha sempre affiancato la propria voracità musicale a una costante ricerca spirituale e a un'attività di sensibilizzazione sociale in prima persona, mantenendo la sfacciataggine da rockstar e non temendo di'mettere la faccia'nelle cause in cui crede. Dall'adolescenza inquieta nei'Disordini'irlandesi, fi no alla fama mondiale e all'impegno concreto per la lotta alla povertà, all'AIDS e per un'economia più giusta e solidale, il libro segue tutti gli snodi nella vicenda umana e professionale in questi primi 60 anni del musicista, raccontando in particolare le radici familiari e le esperienze di vita e di lavoro che hanno contribuito a creare e consolidare la sua visione del mondo. Dalle fatiche degli esordi ai fasti di The Joshua Tree e la reinvenzione con Achtung Baby, fino ai record nei concerti e gli incontri ormai ultraventennali con capi di stato per le campagne in favore dei più poveri, la storia di Bono rivela continui risvolti inediti, oltre a marcare una biografi a che non ha uguali nella storia del rock e della cultura contemporanea.

Rising Above Lyme Disease is a comprehensive, whole-body approach to overcoming Lyme disease and reclaiming your life. Incidence of Lyme disease is skyrocketing. If caught early, antibiotics can often successfully treat it, but more often than not, Lyme is asymptomatic and evades diagnosis until it is a full-blown, chronic condition that requires a multi-faceted treatment plan. In Rising Above Lyme Disease, renowned naturopath and Lyme-literate doctor Julia Greenspan presents a Comprehensive and Alternative Medicine (CAM) approach for recovery for those who have been suffering with this disease for weeks, months, years, or even decades. Operating from the front lines of the epidemic in New England, she gives hope to those who thought there was none, or feel unheard by all those around them. Dr. Greenspan's integrative treatment plan addresses not only the body, but the mind as well, and includes: Standard protocols such as antibiotic and probiotic care, which can be essential to long-term healing (despite fears)Detoxing and dietary changes that help get proven resultsTherapies such as yoga, massage, earthing, and qi gongTherapies that dig deeper (when nothing else seems to be working) and focus on removing obstacles to healing, such as past trauma, negative beliefs about self, unhealthy lifestyle choices, genetics, hormone imbalance, environmental toxins, and other infections—all of which have a very real, and often overlooked, effect on recoveryThrough this comprehensive approach that focuses on the whole person and the very personal ways in which the disease may affect one's life, it is possible to find relief, become your best advocate, and ultimately, rise above Lyme.

Jonathan Swift: Our Dean details the political climax of his remarkable career—his writing and publication of The Drapier's Letters (1724), Gulliver's Travels (1726), and A Modest Proposal (1729)—stressing the relentless political opposition he faced and the numerous ways, including through his sermons, that he worked from his political base as Dean of St. Patrick's Cathedral, psychologically as well as physically just outside the Dublin city walls, to attempt to rouse the Irish people to awareness of the ways that England was abusing them. This book faces squarely the likelihood that Swift had a physical affair with Esther Vanhomrigh between 1719 and 1723, and reassesses in the light of that likelihood his conflicting relations with Esther Vanhomrigh and Esther Johnson. It traces the many loving friendships with both men and women in Ireland that sustained Swift during the years when his health gradually failed him, enabling him to continue indefatiguably, both through his writings and his authority as Dean of St. Patrick's, to contribute to the public welfare in the face of relentless British attempts to squeeze greater and greater profits out of their Irish colony. Finally, it traces how Swift's political indignation led to his treating many people, friends and enemies, cruelly during the 1730s, even while his humor and his ability to make and attract new friends sustained themselves until his memory finally failed him in 1742. This biography, in two books, Jonathan Swift: Irish Blow-in and Jonathan Swift:Our Dean, comes closer than past biographies to capturing how it felt to Swift himself to live his life. Published by University of Delaware Press. Distributed worldwide by Rutgers University Press.

This volume explores how mechanisms of postindustrial capitalism affect places and people in peripheral regions and de-industrializing cities. While studies of globalization tend to emphasize localities newly connected to global systems, this collection, in contrast, analyzes the disconnection of communities away from the market, presenting a range of ethnographic case studies that scrutinize the framework of this transformative process, analyzing new social formations that are emerging in the voids left behind by the de-industrialization, and introducing a discussion on the potential impacts of the current economic and ecological crises on the hyper-mobile model that has characterized this recent phase of global capitalism and spatially uneven development.

America's first anti–sex trafficking law, the 1910 Mann Act, made it illegal to transport women over state lines for prostitution “or any other immoral purpose.” It was meant to protect women and girls from being seduced or sold into sexual slavery. But, as Jessica Pliley illustrates, its enforcement resulted more often in the policing of women's sexual behavior, reflecting conservative attitudes toward women's roles at home and their movements in public. By citing its mandate to halt illicit sexuality, the fledgling Bureau of Investigation gained entry not only into brothels but also into private bedrooms and justified its own expansion.Policing Sexuality links the crusade against sex trafficking to the rapid growth of the Bureau from a few dozen agents at the time of the Mann Act into a formidable law enforcement organization that cooperated with state and municipal authorities across the nation. In pursuit of offenders, the Bureau often intervened in domestic squabbles on behalf of men intent on monitoring their wives and daughters. Working prostitutes were imprisoned at dramatically increased rates, while their male clients were seldom prosecuted.In upholding the Mann Act, the FBI reinforced sexually conservative views of the chaste woman and the respectable husband and father. It built its national power and prestige by expanding its legal authority to police Americans'sexuality and by marginalizing the very women it was charged to protect.

This book represents the third in a series of International Conferences related to Alzheimer's (AD) and Parkinson's (PD) diseases. The first one took place in Eilat, Israel, in 1985; and the second one in Kyoto, Japan, in 1989. This book contains the full text of oral and poster presentations from the Third International Conference on Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Diseases: Recent Developments, held in Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A. on November 1-6, 1993. The Chicago Conference was attended by 270 participants. The Scientific Program was divided into nine oral sessions, a keynote presentation, and a poster session. The conference culminated in a Round Table Discussion involving all of the participants in the conference. The four and one-half day meeting served as an excellent medium for surveying the current status of clinical and preclinical developments in AD and PD. There were 59 oral presentations and 93 posters. This book incorporates a majority of both.

Forty-nine million people -- including one in four children -- go hungry in the U.S. every day, despite our having the means to provide nutritious, affordable food for all. Inspired by the acclaimed documentary A Place at the Table, this companion book offers powerful insights from those at the front lines of solving hunger in America, including:Jeff Bridges, Academy Award-winning actor, cofounder of the End Hunger Network, and spokesperson for the No Kid Hungry Campaign, on raising awareness about hungerKen Cook, president of Environmental Working Group, unravels the inequities in the Farm Bill and shows how they affect America's hunger crisisMarion Nestle, nutritionist and acclaimed critic of the food industry, whose latest work tracks the explosion of calories in today's'Eat More'environmentBill Shore, Joel Berg, and Robert Egger, widely-published anti-hunger activists, suggest bold and diverse strategies for solving the crisisJanet Poppendieck, sociologist, bestselling author, and well-known historian of poverty and hunger in America, argues the case for school lunch reformJennifer Harris, of Yale University's Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity, uncovers the new hidden persuaders of web food advertisersDavid Beckmann, head of Bread for the World, and Sarah Newman, researcher on A Place at the Table, explore the intersection of faith and feeding the hungryMariana Chilton, director of Drexel University's Center for Hunger-Free Communities, discusses the health impacts of hunger and the groundbreaking Witnesses to Hunger projectTom Colicchio, chef and executive producer of television's Top Chef, presents his down-to-earth case to Washington for increases in child nutrition programsAndy Fisher, veteran activist in community food projects, argues persuasively why we have to move beyond the charity-based emergency feeding programKelly Meyer, cofounder of Teaching Gardens, illuminates the path to educating, and providing healthy food for, all childrenKristi Jacobson and Lori Silverbush, the film's directors/producers, tell their personal stories of how and why they came to make the documentary Hunger and food insecurity pose a deep threat to our nation. A Place at the Table shows they can be solved once and for all, if the American public decides -- as they have in the past -- that making healthy food available, and affordable, is in the best interest of us all.

During the five decades since its origin, law and economics has provided an influential framework for addressing a wide array of areas of law ranging from judicial behaviour to contracts. This book will reflects the first-ever forum for law and economics scholars to apply the analysis and methodologies of their field to the subject of wildfire. The only modern legal work on wildfire, the book brings together leading scholars to consider questions such as: How can public policy address the effects of climate change on wildfire, and wildfire on climate change? Are the environmental and fiscal costs of ex ante prevention measures justified? What are the appropriate levels of prevention and suppression responsibility borne by private, state, and federal actors? Can tort liability provide a solution for realigning the grossly distorted incentives that currently exist for private landowners and government firefighters? Do the existing incentives in wildfire institutions provide incentives for efficient private and collective action and how might they be improved?

This book explores the U.S. forest service plans for responding to climate change. The mission of the Forest Service, U.S. Dept. of Agriculture (USDA), is to sustain the health, diversity and productivity of the Nation's forests and grasslands to meet the needs of present and future generations. These services are connected and sustained through the integrity of the ecosystems on these lands. Most of the urgent forest and grassland management challenges of the past 20 years, such as wildfires, changing water regimes and expanding forest insect infestations, have been driven in part by a changing climate and future impacts are projected to be even more severe.
