Paperback Original
HOUSE OF THE WATERLILY
A Novel of the Ancient Maya World
Kelli Carmean
“House of the Waterlily is an excellent introduction into the world of the Classic Period Maya in large part because Carmean is a fine storyteller who weaves her narrative as beautifully as a ‘fine-spun’ huipil. This book would be an excellent addition to the course reading list for undergraduate students who are studying the ancient Maya.” · Scott Simmons, University of North Carolina, Wilmington Continue reading “SIMULATED SHELVES: Browse August 2017 NEW BOOKS”

THEORETICAL SCHOLARSHIP AND APPLIED PRACTICE
Edited by Sarah Pink, Vaike Fors, and Tom O’Dell
Volume 11, Studies in Public and Applied Anthropology
Academics across the globe are being urged by universities and research councils to do research that impacts the world beyond academia.

Theoretical Scholarship and Applied Practice investigates the ways in which theoretical research has been incorporated into recent applied practices across the social sciences and humanities. This collection advances our understanding of the ethics, values, opportunities and challenges that emerge in the making of engaged and interdisciplinary scholarship.
