Como tercera hija en la colonia agrícola de Meterion, las perspectivas de futuro de Susan no son demasiado prometedoras. Una cara bonita, unas habilidades de primera y el trabajo duro no significan nada si tu dote no incluye tierras fértiles. Cuando se acerca su vigésimo quinto cumpleaños sin que ningún pretendiente se acerque a ella, Susan se verá obligada a abandonar las tierras de su familia para trabajar como sirvienta en la capital. Su única salida es conformarse con un matrimonio concertado a través de la AP, la Agencia Primaria. Pero nunca esperó que la emparejaran con un hombre lagarto malhumorado y macizo y, sobre todo, que no se encariñara tanto con sus escamas y sus formas extravagantes.

Con todo lo que está ocurriendo, lo último que necesita Olix es una pareja que sea especialmente blanda, sin escamas, con formas extrañas y con una obsesión por la agricultura. Él es un cazador, no un excavador de tierras. La Vidente debió equivocarse cuando insistió en que, por el bien del pueblo, tomara una pareja de las estrellas. Cómo puede una cosa tan insignificante ser su salvación? Y, sin embargo, la dulzura de su Susan es inquietantemente adictiva, al tiempo que esconde una sorprendente resistencia.

Con sus tierras ancestrales en juego y el futuro de los clanes amenazado, podrá esta pequeña mujer cambiar su destino?

There Is Room for All of You Here is an excavation of the past that leads to a celebration of queer love.

My name is Sam George. In spite of everything that happened to me, by the grace of the Creator, I have lived to be an Elder.

Set in the Vancouver area in the late 1940s and through to the present day, this candid account follows Sam from his idyllic childhood growing up on the Eslhá7an (Mission) reserve to the confines of St. Paul's Indian Residential School and then into a life of addiction and incarceration. But an ember of Sam's spirit always burned within him, and even in the darkest of places he retained his humor and dignity until he found the strength to face his past.

The Fire Still Burns is an unflinching look at the horrors of a childhood spent trapped within the Indian Residential School system and the long-term effects on survivors. It illustrates the healing power of one's culture and the resilience that allows an individual to rebuild a life and a future.

How can urban housing, and the land underneath, now account for half of all global wealth? According to Patrick Condon in Broken City, the simple answer is that land has become an asset rather than a utility. If the rich only indulged themselves with gold, jewels, and art, we wouldn't have a global housing crisis. But once global capital markets realized land was a good speculative investment, runaway housing costs ensued. For example, in Vancouver, land prices increased by six hundred percent between 2008 and 2016. How much wealth have investors extracted from urban land? In this engaging, readable, and insightful treatise, Patrick Condon explains how we have let land, our most durable resource, shift away from the common good and proposes bold strategies for how cities in North America can shift it back.

Nature belongs in cities, but how do we put nature first without pushing people aside? Nature-First Cities reveals the false dichotomy of that question by recognizing that people and nature are indivisible. Western urbanization has meant the ongoing expulsion of nature, which is engendering biodiversity loss and inequality, thwarting economic potential, and affecting health. This volume instead applies the science and practice of nature-directed stewardship to cities. Tested through case studies, this methodology for urban ecosystem restoration is uniquely effective at revitalizing our strained cities. Nature is woven into networks, distributed equitably across neighborhoods, and partnered with the urban density that is essential for addressing the climate crisis.

Nature-First Cities offers a practical framework for urban planning that reinforces our place in nature both physically, by ensuring that cities are replete with biodiversity and intact ecosystems, and conceptually, by rebalancing our relationships with the planet and with one another.

As the climate warms and the hydrological cycle falters, ice is no longer a reliable feature of higher latitudes or winter seasons. What are the consequences of the planet's waning capacity to cool? In other words, what comes after ice?

This collection examines the implications of the end of consistent freezing and thawing cycles. After Ice gathers experts in a wide range of disciplines to articulate aspects of the cold humanities. They investigate ice and its dynamic properties as a foundational element of Indigenous communities in the Arctic regions, as a commodity with technological and political value, and as a reflection of environmental change and the passage of time.

As the future of the cryosphere is increasingly determined by human behavior, this thought-provoking exploration envisions ice as both a phase of water and as a milieu for sensemaking. It asks us to consider how to define, describe, and materially characterize our warming world.

As a third daughter on the farming colony of Meterion, Susan's future prospects aren't too promising. A pretty face, top-notch skills, and hard work mean nothing if your dowry doesn't include fertile lands. With her twenty-fifth birthday approaching, and no suitors even remotely sniffing in her general direction, Susan will be forced to leave the family lands to work as an indentured servant in the capital city. Her only way out is to settle for an arranged marriage through the PMA - the Prime Mating Agency. She just never expected to be paired to a grumpy, massive lizardman, and above all not to grow so fond of his scales and quirky ways.

With everything going on, the last thing Olix needs is a mate, especially a squishy, scaleless, off-worlder with strange ways, and an obsession with farming. He is a Hunter, not a dirt digger. The Seer must have been mistaken when she insisted that, for the sake of the people, he take a mate from the stars. How can such a tiny thing be their salvation? And yet, his Susan's softness is disturbingly addictive while hiding a surprising resilience.

With his ancestral lands on the line and the future of the clans threatened, could this wisp of a woman turn their fate around?

Life is a daring adventure or nothing -Helen Keller

Aligned with global trends in post-industrialization, the economy of metro Vancouver is changing, but along its own trajectory. The focus is shifting away from resource-based activities to local entrepreneurial initiatives across a remarkable range of industries, from software to craft beer, biopharmaceuticals, and mountain bikes. This evolution is being shaped by local business and the city's location on the national and global periphery.

The Thin Edge of Innovation focuses on the performance of signature businesses in these entrepreneurial sectors to grow and foster industrial clusters and integrate with the global economy. The contributors give a mixed report card to this economic transition. Within metro Vancouver, innovation has stimulated economic diversification and promises to deliver high-income jobs. But this diversification has also been thinly spread and lacks deep local roots or dominant anchor companies.

This constructive study examines the distinctive opportunities facing metro Vancouver. Despite challenges, it reveals a region with undoubted potential for sustained, broadly beneficial local development.

In 1931, Japan began a brutal occupation of Manchuria, and in 1937, China and Japan entered a full-scale war that ended with Japan's defeat in 1945. The War of Resistance became the Chinese experience of the Second World War, yet women are scarcely mentioned in most accounts of the fourteen-year conflict. Through interviews, published reminiscences, and oral histories, Not Just a Man's War uncovers the extraordinary stories of ordinary Chinese women during the war.

Communist women speak of fighting as soldiers for a good war and contributing to the party's rise to power. Nationalist women attribute their survival to the strength of the human spirit while acknowledging tremendous suffering. Women from the working poor and the middle classes describe the hardships of Japanese aggression and in their narratives refuse to be ignored as passive beings. In speaking up, the survivors of sexual violence become activists demanding justice. These women demonstrate a striking autonomy regardless of political association, socioeconomic status, or education. By attending to their insights, Not Just a Man's War produces a multi-faceted, inclusive narrative of China's War of Resistance.

Drumming Our Way Home demonstrates how telling, retelling, and re-storying lived experiences not only pass on traditional ways but also open up a world of culture-based learning.

Georgina Martin was taken from her mother not long after birth in a tuberculosis hospital. Her experience is representative of the intergenerational trauma inflicted by the Canadian state on Indigenous peoples. Here she tells her story and invites Elder Jean William and youth Colten Wycotte to reflect critically on their own family and community experiences. Throughout, she is guided by her hand drum, reflecting on its use as a way to uphold community protocols and honor teachings. Her journey provides a powerful example of reconnection to culture through healing, affirmation, and intergenerational learning.

Drumming Our Way Home is evidence of the value of using storytelling as a tool for teaching, learning, and making meaning.
