Narratives of Place, Belonging and Language: An Intercultural Perspective (Language and Globalization)Examining identity in relation to globalization and migration, this book uses narratives and memoirs from contemporary authors who have lived "in-between" two or more languages. It explores the human desire to find one's "own place" in new cultural contexts, and looks at the role of language in shaping a sense of belonging in society.

Mary Tudor - Princess, Bastard, Queen
She was the first woman to inherit the throne of England, a key player in one of Britain’s stormiest eras, and a leader whose unwavering faith and swift retribution earned her the nickname “Bloody Mary.” Now, in this impassioned and absorbing debut, historian Anna Whitelock offers a modern perspective on Mary Tudor and sets the record straight once and for all on one of history’s most compelling and maligned rulers.
A little girl travels from the comforts of her own home to the far reaches of the universe. The journey begins in Maria's house and then moves outward to the street, town, country, continent, hemisphere, planet, solar system, galaxy, and, finally, the universe. With each new widening perspective, children can explore the vastness of the world around them as they discover their own special place in space.

Origins of Grammar: An Anthropological Perspective
An important feature of human language grammar is that it seems to be unrepeated in nature; it does, therefore, seem to be a candidate for what differentiates us as a species. As an emergent capacity, however, it cannot be the whole story: the capacities from which it emerges must be more deeply implicated in our humanness than grammar itself.
