Описание: Meave Leakeys thrilling, high-stakes memoir--written with her daughter Samira--encapsulates her distinguished life and career on the front lines of the hunt for our human origins, a quest made all the more notable by her stature as a woman in a highly competitive, male-dominated field.

In The Sediments of Time, preeminent paleoanthropologist Meave Leakey brings us along on her remarkable journey to reveal the diversity of our early prehuman ancestors and how past climate change drove their evolution. She offers a fresh account of our past, as recent breakthroughs have allowed new analysis of her teams fossil findings and vastly expanded our understanding of our ancestors.

Meaves personal story is replete with drama, from thrilling discoveries on the shores of Lake Turkana--including the 3.5-million-year-old skull of the flat-faced man from Kenya, representing an important new branch of the human family--to run-ins with armed herders and every manner of wildlife, to raising her children and supporting her renowned paleoanthropologist husband Richard Leakeys ambitions amidst social and political strife in Kenya. When Richard needs a kidney, Meave provides him with hers, and when he asks her to assume the reins of their field expeditions after he loses both legs in a plane crash, Meave steps in.

The Sediments of Time is the summation of a lifetime of Meave Leakeys efforts: it is a compelling picture of our human origins and climate change, as well as a high-stakes story of ambition, struggle, and hope.

A fascinating glimpse into our origins. Meave Leakey is a great storyteller, and she presents new information about the far-off time when we emerged from our apelike ancestors to start the long journey that has led to our becoming the dominant species on Earth. That story, woven into her own journey of research and discovery, gives us a book that is informative and captivating, one that you will not forget.

Описание: Cuteness is an area where culture and biology get tangled up. Why was cute the aesthetic best able to ride the waves of globalisation, from Edwardian childrens literature to Disney to Hello Kitty and the general explosion of kawaii branded goods? Dale argues that cultural cross-fertilisation in a competitive market drove designers to home in on some of the most powerful psychological triggers we have - the ones that elicit our care and protection.

Описание:

The Cold War and decolonization transformed the twentieth century world. This volume brings together an international line-up of experts to explore how these transformations took place and expand on some of the latest threads of analysis to help inform our understanding of the links between the two phenomena.

The book begins by exploring ideas of modernity, development, and economics as Cold War and postcolonial projects and goes on to look at the era's intellectual history and investigate how emerging forms of identity fought for supremacy. Finally, the contributors question ideas of sovereignty and state control that move beyond traditional Cold War narratives.

Decolonization and the Cold War emphasizes new approaches by drawing on various methodologies, regions, themes, and interdisciplinary work, to shed new light on two topics that are increasingly important to historians of the twentieth century.
