Book Description
In Pura vida (Life is good)Spanish is more than vocabulary and grammar, just as Spanish-speaking cultures are more than products and practices. In this learner-centered introductory program, the authors’ commitment to a methodology based on true-to-life experiences brings Spanish to life. Pura vida is the discovery of a Spanish-speaking world through the experiences of real people who share anecdotes and reflections on those experiences. Students relate to these people and make deeper, more meaningful connections between language and culture, and acquire Spanish with an unparalleled sense of personal engagement. In this 12-chapter introductory program, students don’t only learn Spanish for real life, but also from real life. They discover that there is not just one homogeneous Hispanic culture, but rather that each Spanish-speaking country has its own rich, unique culture and that the people who live in these countries speak one common language with different accents, characteristics, and idiosyncrasies. The program offers truly seamless integration of cultural notions and language instruction and features 100% contextualized and personalized activities.

Book Description
In 1997, when Ficklin Bryant's father asked him to write a poem, neither of them knew this poem would culminate in an entire collection of poetry. His father requested Bryant create a poem entitled "And the Greatest of These Is Love." Although the suggested title didn't stick, Bryant wrote a poem called "Highest Truths," which began a journey that reached its end in 2012. Highest Truths: Poetry for a New Age features poems Bryant has written from 1997 to 2012. In these poems, Byrant provides glimpses of the spiritual truths he has sought and the people he has known and loved. He also uses his words to call to mind events and peolple that have affected the world, such as the tragedies of 9/11, the Iraq War and the Bush administration. Through his poetry, Bryant works not merely to record life events but also to portray these experiences through the feelings they awaken, In this way, Highest Truths allows readers to remember historic occasions as well as revisit the inherent feelings they stimulated.

Book Description
Considering race and ethnicity as organising principles in why, how, where and by whom crimes are committed and enforced, this volume argues that dimensions of race and ethnicity condition the very laws that make certain behaviours criminal, and the determination of who becomes a victim of crime under which circumstances.

Book Description
Re-Centering Women in Tourism: Anti-Colonial Feminist Studies addresses tourism as simultaneously empowering women and reproducing colonial hierarchies. This volume contributes to conversations on the engagement of women in tourism by centering women’s multivalent lived experiences—as hosts, liaisons, vendors, performers, producers, and consumers—in tourism projects. Examining eco-tourism, craft production, and food tourism initiatives, the contributors embrace the building of new knowledge and advocate for change. By centering women and their experiences through epistemological lenses that encompass colonial histories and economics, this collection reframes the very presuppositions on which tourism initiatives are based and helps imagine sustainable and regenerative alternatives.
