Barrio Boy by Ernesto Galarza Pdf

Barrio Boy is the remarkable story of one boy's journey from a Mexican village so small its main street didn't have a name, to the barrio of Sacramento, California, bustling and thriving in the early decades of the twentieth century. With vivid imagery and a rare gift for re-creating a child's sense of time and place, Ernesto Galarza gives an account of the early experiences of his extraordinary life—from revolution in Mexico to segregation in the United States—that will continue to delight readers for generations to come. Since it was first published in 1971, Galarza’s classic work has been assigned in high school and undergraduate classrooms across the country, profoundly affecting thousands of students who read this true story of acculturation into American life. To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the publication of Barrio Boy, the University of Notre Dame Press is proud to reissue this best-selling book with a new text design and cover, as well an introduction—by Ilan Stavans, the distinguished cultural critic and editor of the Norton Anthology of Latino Literature—which places Ernesto Galarza and Barrio Boy in historical context.

HIDDEN LIFE OF THE DESERT by Thomas Alan Wiewandt Pdf

HIDDEN LIFE OF THE DESERT: And Our Future in the Drying Southwest is a greatly expanded, 120-page 2022/Third Edition, co-published by Wild Horizons and Mountain Press. Part 2 offers an up-to-date, well-researched, thought-provoking, non-technical synthesis of ideas for a future based on “desert thinking for desert living.” In the context of explosive population growth and climate change, consider outdated laws that govern land and water use in the Southwest, how water and energy are connected, pros and cons of desalination, crops suitable for arid lands, agri-solar studies, solar canals, rainwater harvesting, ASU’s exciting new project with “mechanical trees” that collect CO2 from the atmosphere, and more. This book is packed with useful information for students, teachers, and parents. As in his 2nd Edition (2010) of HIDDEN LIFE, Author-Photographer Thomas Wiewandt brightens every page of Part 1 with stunning color photographs of plants and animals that thrive in seemingly barren landscapes of the Sonoran Desert. This book has also served as an educational companion to his award-winning film DESERT DREAMS: Celebrating Five Seasons in the Sonoran Desert, a popular film with no narration that has aired as a pledge drive program on national Public Television since 2015.

Battles in the Desert (40th Anniversary Edition) by Jose Emilio Pacheco Pdf

This heart-breaking novella is a key work of 20th-century dystopian Mexican literature and sadly all too apropos today This landmark novella—one of the central texts of Mexican literature, is eerily relevant to our current dark times—offers a child’s-eye view of a society beset by dictators, disease, and natural disasters, set in “the year of polio, foot-and-mouth disease, floods.” A middle-class boy grows up in a world of children aping adults (mock wars at recess pit Arabs against Jews), where a child’s left to ponder “how many evils and catastrophes we have yet to witness.” When Carlos laments the cruelty and corruption, the evils of a vicious class system, his older brother answers: “So what, we are living up to our ears in shit anyway under Miguel Alemán’s regime,” with “the face of El Senor Presidente everywhere: incessant, private abuse.” Sound familiar? Woven into this coming-of-age saga is the terribly intense love Carlos cherishes for his friend’s young mother, which has the effect of driving the general cruelties further under the reader’s skin. The acclaimed translator Katherine Silver has greatly revised her original translation, enlivening afresh this remarkable work.

The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins Pdf

The million copy international bestseller, critically acclaimed and translated into over 25 languages. As influential today as when it was first published, The Selfish Gene has become a classic exposition of evolutionary thought. Professor Dawkins articulates a gene's eye view of evolution - a view giving centre stage to these persistent units of information, and in which organisms can be seen as vehicles for their replication. This imaginative, powerful, and stylistically brilliant work not only brought the insights of Neo-Darwinism to a wide audience, but galvanized the biology community, generating much debate and stimulating whole new areas of research. Forty years later, its insights remain as relevant today as on the day it was published. This 40th anniversary edition includes a new epilogue from the author discussing the continuing relevance of these ideas in evolutionary biology today, as well as the original prefaces and foreword, and extracts from early reviews. Oxford Landmark Science books are 'must-read' classics of modern science writing which have crystallized big ideas, and shaped the way we think.
