Much controversy has existed over the claims of Native Americans and other indigenous peoples that they have a right--based on original occupancy of land, historical transfers of sovereignty, and principles of self-determination--to a political status separate from the states in which they now find themselves embedded. How valid are these claims on moral grounds?

Burke Hendrix tackles these thorny questions in this book. Rather than focusing on the legal and constitutional status of indigenous nations within the states now ruling them, he starts at a more basic level, interrogating...

The papers in this book are based on efforts by an international group of soil ecologists to assess the biological and ecological mechanisms of earthworm invasions. They examine their geographic extent and impacts on terrestrial ecosystems, and possible means by which earthworm invasions might be mitigated. The book broadens the discussion on invasion biology and ecology to belowground systems.

This book represents the first compilation of the major research findings regarding Maspin—a mammary serpin (or serine) protease inhibitor. Maspin was originally discovered through subtractive hybridization and differential display analyses, comparing the differences in gene expression in normal mammary epithelium and invasive carcinoma cells. This work originated in the laboratory of Dr. Ruth Sager, a world-renowned geneticist, at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical School. The first introduction of Maspin to the research community occurred as a report in Science...
