Beschrijving Oxford Handbooks: The Oxford Handbook of Material Culture Studies

The Oxford Handbook of Material Culture Studies introduces and reviews current thinking in the interdisciplinary field of material culture studies. Drawing together approaches from archaeology, anthropology, geography, and Science and Technology Studies, through twenty-eight specially commissioned essays by leading international researchers, the volume explores contemporary issues and debates in a series of themed sections - Disciplinary Perspectives, Material Practices, Objects and Humans, Landscapes and the Built Environment, and Studying Particular Things. From Coca-Cola, chimpanzees, artworks, and ceramics, to museums, cities, human bodies, and magical objects, the Handbook is an essential resource for anyone with an interest in materiality and the place of material things in human life, both past and present. A comprehensive bibliography enhances its usefulness both as a research tool and as a classroom text.

Sand Rush

An original approach to the iconic landscape of California--the beaches of Los Angeles--this book recovers untold stories of presidential jaunts, wild spring break celebrations, underground gay beaches, and engineering feats that enlarged the shores overnight.

Puerto Rico

In the second edition of Puerto Rico: What Everyone Needs to Know®, Jorge Duany provides a compendium to the island's rich history, culture, politics, economy, and diaspora. Written in an accessible question-and-answer format, Duany covers the history of the island as well as the demographic, economic, political, and cultural features of contemporary Puerto Rico.

Despite the Best Intentions

In this updated second edition, Amanda E. Lewis and John B. Diamond build on their powerful and illuminating study of Riverview to show how the racial achievement gap continues to afflict American schools sixty years after the formal dismantling of segregation.
