New Releases by David Glover

What began as a private journey to archive the fragments of his youth for his then absent mother has turned into a meditation and a ritual for wholeness. Beneath my body Armor: An Elegy, is a 2021 book-length series of lyric and percussive poems by American poet David Lawrence Glover. Beneath my body Armor is a collection of observations, revelations, and reflections on black life and love that spans two decades. This debut book of poetry is broken into five sections that range from deeply personal familial accounts, to love songs, raw emotional laments, and direct excerpts from dreams. These poems ring with extraordinary justice--at once melancholic, then monstrous, vulnerable, exposing, and at last like a wound; healing--in a collective portrait of a child once neglected, now a man finding safety and sanctuary within.

The 1905 Aliens Act was the first modern law to restrict immigration to British shores. In this book, David Glover asks how it was possible for Britain, a nation that had prided itself on offering asylum to refugees, to pass such legislation. Tracing the ways that the legal notion of the "alien" became a national-racist epithet indistinguishable from the figure of "the Jew," Glover argues that the literary and popular entertainments of fin de siecle Britain perpetuated a culture of xenophobia. Reconstructing the complex socio-political field known as "the alien question," Glover examines the work of George Eliot, Israel Zangwill, Rudyard Kipling, and Joseph Conrad, together with forgotten writers like Margaret Harkness, Edgar Wallace, and James Blyth. By linking them to the beliefs and ideologies that circulated via newspapers, periodicals, political meetings, Royal Commissions, patriotic melodramas, and social surveys, Glover sheds new light on dilemmas about nationality, borders, and citizenship that remain vital today.

"Bright Ideas is a new science course for all students in Caribbean primary schools."--Back cover.

Provides an overviews of environmental economics and its strength as a way to understand and respond to environmental problems.

Una gran cantidad de personas en los paises en desarrollo depende del medio ambiente natural para sus medios de vida, sea en tierras de cultivo o bosques, humedales o zonas costeras. Para estas personas, el medio ambiente es mucho mas que una fuente de recreacion, es la base de la economia. Pero carencias en el funcionamiento de los mercados, derechos de propiedad incompletos y politicas equivocadas pueden llevar a las personas a seguir comportamientos que son racionales en el corto plazo o desde un punto de vista individual, pero daninos para el medio ambiente y las futuras generaciones. La economia tiene mucho para ofrecer en la comprension y en la orientacion de este comportamiento. Tambien proporciona herramientas para los tomadores de decisiones enfrentados a opciones dificiles. Como podemos comparar el valor de los beneficios ambientales con los costos de su preservacion? Como podemos evaluar los impactos de la intervencion ambiental (o de la no intervencion) sobre los pobres? Como deberiamos repartir los costos de las mejoras? Este libro expone la forma como investigadores en cuatro de las redes regionales de economia ambiental del IDRC han tratado cuestiones como estas en una gran variedad de situaciones en Asia, Africa y America Latina. Reune las percepciones de mas de 15 anos de investigaciones y evalua sus impactos sobre las politicas publicas y sobre la comunidad cientifica. Concluye con una mirada hacia el futuro de la economia ambiental en el mundo en desarrollo.
