Coming of Age in Samoa:
Rarely do science and literature come together in the same book. When they
do -- as in Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species, for example -- they
become classics, quoted and studied by scholars and the general public
alike.Margaret Mead accomplished this remarkable feat not once but several
times, beginning with Coming of Age in Samoa. It details her
historic journey to American Samoa, taken where she was just twenty-three, where
she did her first fieldwork. Here, for the first time, she presented to
the public the idea that the individual experience of developmental stages could
be shaped by cultural demands and expectations. Adolescence, she wrote,
might be more or less stormy, and sexual development more or less problematic in
different cultures. The civilized world, she taught us had much to learn
from the primitive. Now this groundbreaking, beautifully written
work as been reissued for the centennial of her birth, featuring introductions
by Mary Pipher and by Mead's daughter, Mary Catherine Bateson.

A Bird in the Hand: A Samoan Mystery - Stansbury, Lynn:
ISBN: 0595377300 Stock status: Printed on demand, firm sale only - printed to
order, not returnable Published: Feb 2006 Format: Paperback Pages: 228 The body
of a young woman is found in a dump in American Samoa. Then the prime suspect in
her death is found half-eaten by sharks. Natural justice? Native justice? Or
something else entirely? Lieutenant Han, a Korean-American homicide detective on
loan to this remote South Pacific island nation, is also its only trained
investigator. Born in one culture, raised in another, married into a third and
now working in a fourth, Han takes nothing for granted about why people kill
each other. Even so, these two deaths make no sense. Meanwhile, Han's estranged
Japanese wife is back in Samoa, apparently more interested in an American
ecologist than her husband, and the woman doctor Han fell for in his wife's
absence seems to be falling for the hospital's new pathologist, a long-distance
ocean sailor from South Africa with some unique experience in third-world
killing fields. As the answers to Han's questions emerge from the cultural chaos
like the ghosts that haunt Samoan forests, he discovers that the last blind spot
is his own. And it may kill him.

Essential Principles of Contract and Sales Law in the Northern Pacific:

and U:
ISBN: 0595360203 Stock status: Printed on demand, firm sale only - printed to
order, not returnable Published: Aug 2005 Format: Paperback Pages: 472 Taking an
anthropological approach, "Essential Principles of Contract and Sales Law in the
Northern Pacific" highlights how regional customary and traditional law interact
with Anglo-American concepts of contract and sales law to produce a unique
amalgam of substantive law in this Pacific region. Author and law professor
Daniel P. Ryan compiles and discusses the current contract and sales law
applicable in the Pacific region, including the Republics of Palau and the
Marshall Islands, Hawaii, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, and
the Federated States of Micronesia. Ryan compares and contrasts this regional
law to international standards, including the UN Sale of Goods Convention, the
UNIDROIT Principles of Contract Law, UNCITRAL Model Law for E-Commerce, the
Uniform Commercial Code, the Revised Uniform Commercial Code, and the
Restatement (Second) of Contracts. "Essential Principles of Contract and Sales
Law in the Northern Pacific" is essential reading for members of the judiciary,
academics, practitioners, students, and businesses within the region and their
major trade partners.

Undersea With GIS - Wright, D:
ISBN: 1589480163 Stock status: Available to order, firm sale only - not

features of mapping and visualization, charting, and Internet access are used
for such purposes as tracking whales, searching for the German U-559 submarine,
and managing geospatial submarine cable data. Contents: In the same way GIS has
helped make analysis and mapping of the earth's surface more accessible and
powerful, GIS technology allows experts to see that large portion of the planet
that is underwater. This collection of works from experts in marine biology,
oceanography, aquatic resource management, and other fields charts the ways in
which GIS is beginning to help improve understanding of the oceans. Issues
discussed are efforts to map the sea's floor, tracking the journeys of whales
and tuna to preserve species in threatened areas, developing new kinds of
nautical charts to give mariners an astonishing three-dimensional view of their
progress through the water, and how GIS might be used to more efficiently track
the location of sunken vessels. Includes a foreword by Sylvia Earle, one of the
world's most respected marine biologists who was named one of Time magazine's
Heroes of the Planet in 1998. Earle was one of the first scientists to research
marine ecosystems, holds numerous diving records, and has spent more than 6,000
hours underwater. She is also the former chief scientist for the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and has written more than 100
scientific and popular publications and three books including Wild Ocean:
America's Parks Under the Sea and Dive: My Adventures in the Deep Frontier. The
book comes with a CD-ROM laden with marine-oriented GIS tools: ArcView
extensions and ARC Macro Language (AML) scripts, ocean data, three-dimensional
marine multimedia underwater fly throughs, and a sample educational module for
K-12 teachers. Many of these tools are direct demonstrations of the concepts and
applications described in the chapters of the book provided by ocean GIS
