Let’s face it. These days, many of the world’s most beloved places have become expensive and overcrowded, making their celebrated allure that much harder to enjoy. But fear not: Here Not There helps you create a more robust, off-the-beaten path vacation by revealing 100 alternative destinations to the standard travel playbook - as well as expert tips on when to visit, where to eat, what to see, and where to stay. In this surprising collection of lively travel itineraries, you’ll find authentic, unexpected, and rewarding destinations of a lifetime to add to your bucket list, including: A trip to Quito, Ecuador, instead of Lima, Peru, for iconic architecture and top-notch South American cuisine. A road trip along West Virginia’s byways instead of New England’s highways for brilliant autumn colours. A romantic rendezvous to Lecce, Italy, instead of mega-touristed Florence for art, wine, and artifacts.A hiking excursion in Chile’s Lake District instead of England’s for an unexpected natural wonder.A theater-infused visit to Cleveland, Ohio, where the performances match the levels of New York City’s Broadway.A tour of Portugal’s Azores, rather than the Hawaiian islands, for flora, fauna, and underwater adventures.A water-filled excursion through New York’s Thousand Islands instead of a cruise down Germany’s Rhine River.A trip to Detroit to find Art Deco skyscrapers (and even a beach in Motown) that rival those of Miami. Both surprising and inspiring, Here Not There offers readers a chance to think beyond our typical borders and discover undreamed-of destinations.

The case studies provided in Case Studies for Advances in Paleoimaging will provide the reader with real-world scenarios and case examples that will help prepare researchers to discover new ways to apply the various modalities associated with the technology. This book is a follow-up to the Beckett and Conlogue’s classic work Paleoimaging (2009) and companion to their new contribution Advances in Paleoimaging (2020). The case studies outlined demonstrate the problem-solving nature of imaging research and the application of critical thought to unique problems.Further, Case Studies for Advances in Paleoimaging demonstrates the incredible depth of application of these modalities including photography, endoscopy, x-ray fluorescence, plane radiography, digital radiography, and advanced imaging modalities like multi-detector computed tomography, micro-computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. Of particular note, case study seven, Contrast Media Injections, informs the researcher regarding methods to bring out specific anatomic structures that may be the target of a given research question.Intended for students, faculty, and seasoned researchers, Case Studies for Advances in Paleoimaging presents actual cases from the authors’ vast experience in the application of paleoimaging modalities in order to answer unique research problems. The book also serves as a field manual for current and future researchers as they approach similar or new cases that present unique challenges. These cases demonstrate how the varied imaging methodologies can provide data which greatly enriches our understanding of the subject at hand, be it ancient cultural remains, forensic recovery, museum holdings, or other anthropological and archaeological artifacts.

Publications on aesthetic rejuvenation often start with the treatment—such as fillers or lasers—and then work back to the patient problem. Comprehensive Aesthetic Rejuvenation: A Regional Approach starts from the perspective of what the patient perceives as the problem region of the body. It then moves to the appropriate range of treatments that can be offered and discusses how outcomes can be improved. Topics include: The new growth agent for eyelashes Multimodal approaches to healthy skin Aesthetic considerations in ethnic skin Hair loss and transplantation New developments in less invasive fat and cellulite treatments Body contouring surgery Enhanced with more than 200 color illustrations, this volume is an essential resource for all aesthetic and plastic surgeons.

Journey without End chronicles the years-long journey of extracontinentales—African and South Asian migrants moving through Latin America toward the United States. Based on five years of collaborative research between a journalist and an anthropologist, this book makes an engrossing, sometimes surreal, narrative-driven critique of how state-level immigration policy fails extracontinental migrants.The book begins with Kidane, an Eritrean migrant who has left his pregnant wife behind to make the four-year trip to North America; it then picks up the natural disaster–riddled voyage of Roshan and Kamala Dhakal from Nepal to Ecuador; and it continues to the trials of Cameroonian exile Jane Mtebe, who becomes trapped in a bizarre beachside resort town on the edge of the DariÉn Gap—the gateway from South to Central America.Journey without End follows these migrants as their fitful voyages put them in a semi-permanent state of legal and existential liminality as mercurial policy creates profit opportunities that transform migration bottlenecks—Quito’s tourist district, a Colombian beachside resort, Panama’s DariÉn Gap, and a Mexican border town—into spontaneous migration-oriented spaces rife with race, gender, and class exploitation. Even then, migrant solidarity allows for occasional glimpses of subaltern cosmopolitanism and the possibility of mobile futures.

As the first comprehensive study of Daves s career, this collection of essays seeks to deepen our understanding of his work, and also to problematize existing conceptions of him as a competent, conventional and even naive studio man.

While the world’s refugee population reaches record high numbers, countries offering third-country resettlement are increasingly shifting toward policies of exclusion and austerity. This edited volume envisions a more humane future for refugee resettlement. Combining anthropology with a variety of professional perspectives (education, health care, theology, administration, politics, and social work) ethnography is used to demonstrate the efficacy of programs and interventions that create and nurture social capital in culturally specific and accessible ways. The contributors present case studies of resettlement in the United States, England, Australia, and Canada and contend that social networks have an essential role—are the crux—in the reconfigurations of refugee well-being, belonging, and place-making vis-à-vis the bureaucratic limitations of state and institutional factors. This book includes short contributions from refugees, representatives of resettlement organizations, and government officials, including Jhuma N. Acharya, Bimala Bastola, Khada Bhandari, Kiri Hata, Govin Magar, Madhu Neupane, Natacha Nikokeza, Angela K. Plummer, Lance Rasbridge, Chris Sunderlin, David Thatcher, and John Tluang.
