Literature & Literary StudiesMarch 2001Beginning ethnic American literatures
by Helena Grice, Peter Barry, Candida Hepworth, John McLeod, Maria Lauret, Martin Padget, Annete Musker
Since the late 1960s, American literature has been revitalised by the work of writers such as Toni Morrison, Sherman Alexie, Sandra Cisneros and Maxine Hong Kingston. An introduction to the study of ethnic American fictions organised into four sections, each written by a specialist in the fields of African American, Asian American, Chicano/a and native American literature. Writers are discussed in their cultural/political contexts and literary traditions (rather than as exceptions or as individuals, or on a generic basis). The book highlights common themes in ethnic writing as well as specificities, and has extensive suggestions for further reading as well as a critical introduction regarding the concept of 'ethnic writing'. No competing titles - there are no textbooks, no beginners' books nor any systematised combination of ethnic fictions such as this - only edited collections on each area. ;

The Theory and Practice of Integrated Health Approaches
by Jakob Zinsstag, Esther Schelling, Lisa Crump, Maxine Whittaker, Marcel Tanner, Craig Stephen
One Health, the concept of combined veterinary and human health, has now expanded beyond emerging infectious diseases and zoonoses to incorporate a wider suite of health issues. Retaining its interdisciplinary focus which combines theory with practice, this new edition illustrates the contribution of One Health collaborations to real-world issues such as sanitation, economics, food security and vaccination programmes. It includes more non-infectious disease issues and climate change discussion alongside revised case studies and expanded methodology chapters to draw out implications for practice. Promoting an action-based, solutions-oriented approach, One Health: The Theory and Practice of Integrated Health Approaches highlights the lessons learned for both human and animal health professionals and students.

The Theory and Practice of Integrated Health Approaches
by Edited by Jakob Zinsstag, Esther Schelling, Maxine Whittaker, Marcel Tanner, David Waltner-Toews.
The One Health concept of combined veterinary and human health continues to gain momentum, but the supporting literature is sparse. In this book, the origins of the concept are examined and practical content on methodological tools, data gathering, monitoring techniques, study designs, and mathematical models is included. Zoonotic diseases, with discussions of diseases of wildlife, farm animals, domestic pets and humans, and real-world issues such as sanitation, economics, food security and evaluating the success of vaccination programmes are covered in detail. Discussing how to put policy into practice, and with case studies throughout, this book combines research and practice in one broad-ranging volume. Read a chapter for free

FictionFrom the Fence until Lunchtime
by Jay Ramella
From the Fence until Lunchtime can be read as a stand-alone story but it is also the sequel to DIPSORA (ISBN 9781871506747). All the central family characters are reintroduced as Kostas returns from St Petersburg to live again at Lakelands with Valeriya, the Russian agent and love of his life who is also one of the narrators of this story. A luxurious holiday cruise embroils the Nashes in a violent death leading to the Italian Mafia’s involvement in the subsequent cover-up of the crime and concomitant exposure of British political sleaze. The other narrator, Maxine, is pursuing a new career in the City with the Nash family business where she begins a passionate affair with her boss, who is also her first cousin. Constricted by the need for secrecy and almost completely unsupported, Maxine endures sacrifice and heartbreak as the yoke of dynastic duty is laid on rich, handsome George who continues to have it all, up to and beyond the bittersweet ending.
