Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'This book is a short treatment of a long history. Nebraska has been inundated by ancient seas, carved by glaciers, and settled by ancient cultures who learned to survive in a land prone to extremes of climates. As a state, Nebraska was born out of the Civil War, shaped by railroads, and built by immigrants. Settlers were drawn by promises of free land and abundant rain. They endured droughts and economic depressions. They fought for political reforms, fought world wars, and sometimes fought each other. Along the way, Nebraskans chose a unique form of government and re-invented their communities under new conditions. A Brief History of Nebraska is a story of continual change, the back store of the place and people we know today'--The back cover.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Although scholars in the environmental humanities have been exploring the dichotomy between "wild" and "built" environmentsfor several years,few have focused on the field of disability studies,a discipline that enliststhe contingency between environments and bodies as a foundation of its scholarship. On the other hand, scholars in disability studieshave demonstrated the ways in which the built environment privileges some bodies and minds over others, yet theyhave rarelyexaminedthe ways in which toxic environments engenderchronic illness and disability or how environmental illnesses disrupt dominant paradigms for scrutinizing "disability." Designed as a reader for undergraduate and graduate courses, Disability Studies and the Environmental Humanities employs interdisciplinary perspectives to examine such issues as slow violence, imperialism, race, toxicity, eco-sickness, the body in environmental justice, ableism, and other topics. With a historical scope spanning the seventeenth century to the present, this collection not only presents the foundational documents informing this intersection of fields but also showcases the most current work, making it an indispensable reference.
