Visualizing Geology, Binder Ready Version, 4th Edition introduces students to geology and Earth system science through the distinctive mode of visual learning that is the hallmark of the Wiley Visualizing series. Readers learn that the geologic features we see and experience result from interactions among three grand cycles, which extend from Earths core to the fringes of our atmosphere: the tectonic cycle, the rock cycle, and the water cycle.
Award winning former Chicago Tribune staff photographer and travel writer Charles Osgood traces the journeys of his ancestors during their travels to Europe in 1914, at the brink of WWI. A century later, in 2014, he followed their itinerary to see what had changed, and find what remains the same.
The typed journals of his great aunt and grandfather, embellished with their snap shots and colored post cards, are reproduced exactly as he found them, with dog-eared yellowed pages and faded images that look and feel like the originals. His blog/journal, emblazoned with his own digital visual discoveries, documents the contemporary and ever-changing continent, often revealing how little seems to have changed.
So much of what his ancestors saw appears today almost mystically as they describe it, despite an intervening century and the mass destruction of two world wars. At the risk of disappointing potential readers, this book is not about Dutch Love, but the euphoric excitement of travel, history, contrast, and daily surprise.
On April 2, 1914, my great aunt, Winifred Salisbury, sailed for the Azores to begin her eleven week odyssey through Europe. On June 16, 1914, her brother-in-law (my grandfather) Fredrik Hansen, began his only trip back to his homeland, Sweden. It is unclear why they both chose that year to travel, but perhaps fear of war created a certain urgency. A century later, on August 18, 2014, I set off to discover what remained of the pre-WWI Europe

In 2000, the U.S. passed a major aid package that was going to help Colombia do it all: cut drug trafficking, defeat leftist guerrillas, support peace, and build democracy. More than 80% of the assistance, however, was military aid, at a time when the Colombian security forces were linked to abusive, drug-trafficking paramilitary forces. Drugs, Thugs, and Diplomats examines the U.S. policymaking process in the design, implementation, and consequences of Plan Colombia, as the aid package came to be known.
Winifred Tate explores the rhetoric and practice of foreign policy by the U.S. State Department, the Pentagon, Congress, and the U.S. military Southern Command. Tate's ethnography uncovers how policymakers' utopian visions and emotional entanglements play a profound role in their efforts to orchestrate and impose social transformation abroad. She argues that U.S. officials' zero tolerance for illegal drugs provided the ideological architecture for the subsequent militarization of domestic drug policy abroad. The U.S. also ignored Colombian state complicity with paramilitary brutality, presenting them as evidence of an absent state and the authentic expression of a frustrated middle class. For rural residents of Colombia living under paramilitary dominion, these denials circulated as a form of state terror. Tate's analysis examines how oppositional activists and the policy's targets--civilians and local state officials in southern Colombia--attempted to shape aid design and delivery, revealing the process and effects of human rights policymaking.

The poems in Frost Flowers by Winifred Hughes plunge, open-eyed and open-hearted, into the natural world--its seasonal rhythms and impenetrable mysteries, its vanishings, its incorrigible quality of being alive. They seek to chronicle the encounter between the non-human and the all-too-human, the passion and longing of our species as we relate to our natural environment, both apart from it and a part of it. Like the swallows and tanagers and foxes, like the box elder and frostweed, we are transitory creatures living in vivid moments. These poems are propelled by curiosity, precise observation, and a sense of wonder; they are a searching, a probing into the secrets at the heart of natural processes, which are the fundamental processes of life and death. The natural world appears under all its contradictory aspects--sharp stones in a streambed, hatchlings clinging to their precarious nest, wildflowers that are both beautiful and poisonous, the exuberance and overflowing life of a flock of blackbirds. In the midst of such fullness and blossoming, there is always the possibility of frost, whether nipping early buds or being transformed into late-blooming flowers made of ice. Like our fellow species, from hardwood trees growing slowly over centuries to small passerines with speeded-up metabolisms, we are subject to the passage of time; before we can quite grasp it, our moment is gone. Throughout, we are inextricably bound up in our natural context, in the wild places and wildlife that are increasingly threatened by human activity.
