Making a vital contribution to our understanding of North American borderlands history through its examination of the northernmost stretches of the U.S.-Canada border, Andrea Geiger highlights the role that the North Pacific borderlands played in the construction of race and citizenship on both sides of the international border from 1867, when the United States acquired Russia's interests in Alaska, through the end of World War II. Imperial, national, provincial, territorial, reserve, and municipal borders worked together to create a dynamic legal landscape that both Indigenous and non-Indigenous people negotiated in myriad ways as they traversed these borderlands. Adventurers, prospectors, laborers, and settlers from Europe, Canada, the United States, Latin America, and Asia made and remade themselves as they crossed from one jurisdiction to another. Within this broader framework, Geiger pays particular attention to the ways in which Japanese migrants and the Indigenous people who had made this borderlands region their home for millennia—Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian among others—negotiated the web of intersecting boundaries that emerged over time, charting the ways in which they infused these reconfigured national, provincial, and territorial spaces with new meanings.

Millennials: The group of people born between 1982 and 2000, are also sometimes called the Net Generation because (at least according to some people) they don't remember a time when there was no Internet. As a result of growing up with the Internet and associated devices, millennials are often said to be the most technologically savvy generation to date. But what was it like for them as they were learning to use this technology? My daughter, Brittany, was born in 1987, and as she entered college things were happening fast. I was in the perfect position to see not only how things had changed from when I was her age, but how they changed monthly and even weekly for her This collection of stories spans her four years in college and the following four years until her wedding day.

The Mahavamsa (English translation: "Great Chronicle") is a historical book written in the Pali language about the Kings of Sri Lanka. The first version of it covered the period from the coming of King Vijaya of the Rarh region of ancient Bengal in 543 BCE to the reign of King Mahasena (334-361 AD). It covers the early history of religion in Sri Lanka, beginning with the time of Siddhartha Gautama, the founder of Buddhism. It also briefly recounts the history of Buddhism in India, from the date of the Buddha's death to the various Buddhist councils where the Dharma was reviewed. Every chapter of the Mahavamsa ends by stating that it is written for the "serene joy of the pious". From the emphasis of its point-of-view, it can be said to have been compiled to record the good deeds of the kings who were patrons of the Mahavihara temple in Anuradhapura. This edition is the English translation of the Mahavamsa.
Luke Geiger expresses through his poems a personal contemplation of his spirituality through academia, and the contemporary state of the Christian religion. A sensitive confession to a faith he longs to return to with dignity and honesty, only to wish for an understanding heart that may never accept his willingness to learn further than the congregation he once knew to be his own.

In der Person von Carl Schurz (1829-1906) verbinden sich einige der besten deutschen und amerikanischen politischen Traditionen. Rudolf Geiger zeichnet in dieser Biographie den abenteuerlichen Lebensweg des deutschen Revolution rs von 1848/49 und Freund Abraham Lincolns nach. Vor Henry Kissinger war Schurz der einzige in Deutschland geborene Politiker, der als Minister in einer amerikanischen Bundesregierung diente. In seinem politischen Leben in den USA ging es um die Unterst tzung Lincolns im Kampf gegen die Sklaverei, dann um die Auseinandersetzungen angesichts der Cliquenwirtschaft in den Parteizentralen und im Staatsdienst, berdies um eine menschlichere Indianerpolitik. In seinen letzten Jahren wandte sich Carl Schurz besonders gegen eine imperialistische Au enpolitik, wobei sich manche Parallelen zur heutigen Zeit geradezu aufdr ngen. Die Biographie von Schurz macht nicht zuletzt die Eigenart des amerikanischen politischen Denkens besser verst ndlich.
In a business world where we are told that time is money, the real currency is communicating clearly at a poised and measured pace. Better Business Speech: Techniques, Tricks, and Shortcuts for Public Speaking at Work by Paul Geiger focuses on the challenges of being a strong communicator in a range of business settings.

Seasoned speech coach Paul Geiger offers tricks, techniques, and shortcuts that all seem shockingly simple; but it is the retraining of the mind and body that is the hard part. He details practical daily exercises that lead to better speech habits and addresses the causes of ineffective speech pattern in both personal and business settings. The physical and mental aspects of speech are explored in the context of forming a strong speech technique foundation that never loses sight of the importance of always sounding authentic. By offering action steps and helpful online tutorials, Geiger provides readers with the tools necessary to make lasting changes that will enhance speaking skills in all facets of business life.
