Book Description
The grammar of negative polarity items is one of the challenges for linguistic theory. NPIs cross-cut all traditional categories in grammar and semantics, yet their distribution is by no means arbitrary. Theories of NPI licensing have been proposed in terms of syntax, semantics, and pragmatics - each with its own merits and problems. The volume comprises state-of-the-art studies and suggests an interpolation approach to NPI licensing.

Book Description
“What a wonderful idea for an adventure! Absolutely inspired, timely, and important.” —Alistair Humphreys, National Geographic Adventurer of the Year and author of The Doorstep Mile and Around the World by Bike Outdoor educator and field researcher Sara Dykman made history when she became the first person to bicycle alongside monarch butterflies on their storied annual migration—a round-trip adventure that included three countries and more than 10,000 miles. Equally remarkable, she did it solo, on a bike cobbled together from used parts. Her panniers were recycled buckets. In Bicycling with Butterflies, Dykman recounts her incredible journey and the dramatic ups and downs of the nearly nine-month odyssey. We’re beside her as she navigates unmapped roads in foreign countries, checks roadside milkweed for monarch eggs, and shares her passion with eager schoolchildren, skeptical bar patrons, and unimpressed border officials. We also meet some of the ardent monarch stewards who supported her efforts, from citizen scientists and researchers to farmers and high-rise city dwellers. With both humor and humility, Dykman offers a compelling story, confirming the urgency of saving the threatened monarch migration—and the other threatened systems of nature that affect the survival of us all.

Book Description
In C. L. R. James's classic Beyond a Boundary, the sport is cricket and the scene is the colonial West Indies. Always eloquent and provocative, James--the "black Plato," (as coined by the London Times)--shows us how, in the rituals of performance and conflict on the field, we are watching not just prowess but politics and psychology at play. Part memoir of a boyhood in a black colony (by one of the founding fathers of African nationalism), part passionate celebration of an unusual and unexpected game, Beyond a Boundary raises, in a warm and witty voice, serious questions about race, class, politics, and the facts of colonial oppression. Originally published in England in 1963 and in the United States twenty years later (Pantheon, 1983), this second American edition brings back into print this prophetic statement on race and sport in society.

Book Description
This deeply personal memoir chronicles the profound journey of a family navigating life with neurodiverse children. It all began with a fated encounter between the narrator and Emily, forging a powerful bond despite her private struggles with bipolar disorder and ADHD. Their love flourished into marriage and raising three neurodivergent sons - Samuel with ADHD tendencies, Lionel born with bipolar disorder, and gentle Richard later diagnosed with autism and schizophrenia. The parents meet each challenge with patience, compassion and a growing devotion to nurturing their children's unique strengths rather than focusing on perceived deficiencies. They learn to embrace neurodiversity, not as disability but as natural variation expressing innate abilities society fails to make space for. As the boys blossom in supportive environments tailored to their needs, new passions arise within the parents for advocating greater inclusion, dismantling stigma and championing neurodivergent voices. At the story's heart shines the remarkable resilience of a family weathering storms together with empathy, humor and wisdom. Their tapestry illustrates how facing adversity united forging unbreakable bonds. Differences integrate into harmonious wholes when valued intrinsically. Lives restricted by rigid societal standards become empowered by unveiling and nurturing diverse innate potentials. As generations expand, seeds of advocacy take root inspiring work and creating positive change. The sons grow into purpose-driven individuals uplifting others on parallel journeys. Their own children continue shining lights of understanding into shadows of prejudice. Throughout all seasons of both struggle and triumph, the family remains anchored in unconditional love and acceptance of each member's distinctive spirit. This profoundly moving memoir reminds us no single narrative defines a human life's complexity. Progress arises when diverse perspectives connect cooperatively, not combatively. Though imperfect, with compassion this family cultivates fulfilling lives by embracing neurodiversity's endless beauty. Their resilience offers hope that even in the darkest storms, the light within can illuminate new paths forward. This book imparts timeless wisdom and encouragement for any family navigating diverse abilities and complex minds with grace.

Book Description
What does it take to be one of the world's best high-altitude mountain climbers? A lot of fundraising; traveling in some of the world's most dangerous countries; enduring cold bivouacs, searing lungs, and a cloudy mind when you can least afford one. It means learning the hard lessons the mountains teach. Steve House built his reputation on ascents throughout the Alps, Canada, Alaska, the Karakoram and the Himalaya that have expanded possibilities of style, speed, and difficulty. In 2005 Steve and alpinist Vince Anderson pioneered a direct new route on the Rupal Face of 26,600-foot Nanga Parbat, which had never before been climbed in alpine style. It was the third ascent of the face and the achievement earned Steveand Vince the first Piolet d"or (Golden Ice Axe) awarded to North Americans. Steve is an accomplished and spellbinding storyteller in the tradition of Maurice Herzog and Lionel Terray. Beyond the Mountain is a gripping read destined to be a mountain classic. And it

Book Description
From historian Marc Aronson comes a thought-provoking, revelatory young adult nonfiction history of the origins of racism. Race. You know it at a glance: he’s black; she’s white. They’re Asian; we’re Latino. Racism. I’m better; she’s worse. Those people do those kinds of things. We all know it’s wrong to make these judgments, but they come faster than thought. Why? Where did those feelings come from? Why are they so powerful? Why have millions been enslaved, murdered, denied their rights because of the color of their skin, the shape of their eyes? This astounding book traces the history of racial prejudice in Western culture back to ancient Sumer and beyond. Greeks divided the world into civilized and barbarian, medieval men wrote about the traits of monstrous men until, finally, Enlightenment scientists scrap all those mythologies and come up with a new one: charts spelling out the traits of human races. Throughout most of human history, slavery had nothing to do with race. In fact, the idea of race itself did not exist in the West before the 1600s. But once the idea was established and backed up by “scientific” theory, its influence grew with devastating consequences, from the appalling lynchings in the American South to the catastrophe known as the Holocaust in Europe.
