The Sugar Barons
Matthew Parker - 2011
For 200 years after 1650, the West Indies witnessed one of the greatest power struggles of the age, as Europeans made and lost immense fortunes growing and trading in sugar - a commodity so lucrative that it was known as white gold. This compelling book tells how the islands became by far most valuable and important colonies in the British Empire. How Barbados, scene of the sugar revolution that made the English a nation of voracious consumers, was transformed from a backward outpost into England's richest colony, powered by the human misery of tens of thousands of enslaved Africans. How this model of coercion and exploitation was exported around the region, producing huge wealth for a few, but creating a society poisoned by war, disease, cruelty and corruption. How Jamaican opulence reached its zenith, and its subsequent calamitous decline;
DR. SEBI Treatment and Cures Book: Dr. Sebi Cure for STDs, Herpes, HIV, Diabetes, Lupus, Hair Loss, Cancer, Kidney, and Other Diseases (Dr.Sebi's Cure Series Book 1)
M.S. Greger - 2019
Sebi is who you need.
Dr. Sebi was a Honduran herbalist and healer who discovered that a simple diet could be the cure for so many illnesses in the world. Think about the number of auto-immune diseases there are, such as HIV and lupus. Doctors don’t know how to heal those diseases. All that is available are medicines to help control them, which is great, but wouldn’t it be great if there was something you could do that would get rid of the disease altogether? Dr. Sebi wanted that, and that’s what he did.Within these pages, you will learn:
How Dr. Sebi’s treatment plan can help STDs like herpes and HIV
The reason why eliminating mucus can help with diabetes
Why hair loss no longer has to be permanent
Dr. Sebi’s nutritional guide
Who Dr. Sebi is and his treatment philosophy
… And much more.
Understand that this may seem all too good to be true, or that it’s telling you modern medicine is completely bad. You will find that Dr. Sebi never tells you to stop taking medicines prescribe by doctors. Instead, you will use his diet, products, and treatments, along with your doctor’s orders to help you heal.
Right now, it’s up to you to make the final decision. Stay exactly as you are right now. Fed up with how you feel, and unable to do anything about it, or buy this book and make changes your body will love you for.

Rape and Sexual Power in Early America
Sharon Block - 2006
Block analyzes the legal, social, and cultural implications of more than nine hundred documented incidents of sexual coercion and hundreds more extralegal commentaries found in almanacs, newspapers, broadsides, and other print and manuscript sources. Highlighting the gap between reports of coerced sex and incidents that were publicly classified as rape, Block demonstrates that public definitions of rape were based less on what actually happened than on who was involved. She challenges conventional narratives that claim sexual relations between white women and black men became racially charged only in the late nineteenth century. Her analysis extends racial ties to rape back into the colonial period and beyond the boundaries of the southern slave-labor system. Early Americans' treatment of rape, Block argues, both enacted and helped to sustain the social, racial, gender, and political hierarchies of a New World and a new nation.

This volume features commentary and descriptions of each of the radiolarians from Haeckel's work.
Ants at Work: How an Insect Society is Organized
Deborah M. Gordon - 1999
With their queens and celibate workers, these intriguing creatures have captured the imaginations of scientists and children alike for generations. Yet until now, no one had studied intensely the life cycle of the ant colony as a whole. An ant colony has a life cycle of about fifteen years—it is born, matures, and dies. But the individual ants that inhabit the colony live only one year. So how does this system of tunnels and caves in the dirt become so much more than the sum of its parts?Leading ant researcher Deborah Gordon takes the reader to the Arizona desert to explore this question. The answer involves the emerging insights of the new science of complexity, and contributes to understanding the evolution of life itself.
