DAVIS FRED
Fashion Culture And Identity
The University of Chicago Press Chicago and London: 1991. Softcover. Brand new book. What do our clothes say about who we are or who we think we are How does the way we dress communicate messages about our identity Is the desire to be "in fashion" universal or is it unique to Western culture How do fashions change These are just a few of the intriguing questions Fred Davis sets out to answer in this provocative look at what we do with our clothes�and what they can do to us. Much of what we assume to be individual preference Davis shows really reflects deeper social and cultural forces. Ours is an ambivalent social world characterized by tensions over gender roles social status and the expression of sexuality. Predicting what people will wear becomes a risky gamble when the link between private self and public persona can be so unstable. Includes an Index. "Fashion Culture and Identity is provocative and intelligent. While many writers on fashion suggest that clothing represents a set of symbols like a language Davis claims that the role of clothing is far more complex. This argument and his elegant writing make this a book worth reading." - Gary Alan Fine Department of Sociology University of Georgia The University of Chicago Press, Chicago and London: 1991 hardcover

MILLER NEIL
Kartchner Caverns: How Two Cavers Discovered And Saved One Of The Wonders Of The Natural World
University of Arizona Press Tucson . Softcover. Brand new book. It was all routine even if hundreds of pounds of earth were pressing down on their heads even though the ceiling might potentially collapse at any moment even if they were surrounded by a sea of darkness and had no idea what lay in front of them. Award-winning author Neil Miller soon tells us that what lay in front of amateur spelunkers Randy Tufts and Gary Tenen was anything but routine. These young men had crawled into a virgin cave a landscape untouched and unseen for hundreds of thousands of years. In cave terminology this underground oasis was "living"�water still seeped down the limestone walls depositing minerals that slowly built up into stunningly beautiful formations. In a time when countless caves had been destroyed by vandals and looters who had defaced the walls and had broken formations this pristine discovery was every caver's dream. While duplicating that moment might seem difficult this fascinating account of the fight to preserve Kartchner Caverns lends us the same sense of awe and urgency. In an arresting tale spanning the twenty-five-year period in which Tufts and Tenen struggled to protect their find Miller skillfully weaves together personal interviews biographical information political maneuvering and geological facts. Presented in full color with dazzling photographs showcasing the natural wonder of the caverns this is an invitation to take in the mysterious stunning beauty of a cave as if discovering it for the first time. The triumph of the conservationists and the opening of Kartchner Caverns as a state park are known to anyone who has visited the caves as a tourist. But this narrative offers a chance to go beyond the guidebooks with its revealing look at this unspoiled natural wonder and the science of cave conservation. With as much depth and colorful detail as the caverns themselves this page-turning account will captivate anyone interested in caves and the preservation of natural wonders.

NABHAN GARY PAUL
The Desert Smells Like Rain: A Naturalist In O'odham County
University of Arizona Press Tucson . Softcover. Brand new book. Longtime residents of the Sonoran Desert the Tohono O'odham people have spent centuries living off the land�a land that most modern citizens of southern Arizona consider totally inhospitable. Ethnobotanist Gary Nabhan has lived with the Tohono O'odham long known as the Papagos observing the delicate balance between these people and their environment. Bringing O'odham voices to the page at every turn he writes elegantly of how they husband scant water supplies grow crops and utilize wild edible foods. Woven through his account are coyote tales O'odham children's impressions of the desert and observations on the political problems that come with living on both sides of an international border. Whether visiting a sacred cave in the Baboquivari Mountains or attending a saguaro wine-drinking ceremony Nabhan conveys the everyday life and extraordinary perseverance of these desert people in a book that has become a contemporary classic of environmental literature.

GOLDSMITH ARTHUR
The Nude In Photography
Playboy Press Chicago: 1975. Hardcover with dustjacket. Fair condition. Dustjacket is very worn and torn. Since the invention of the camera no subject has fascinated the loving eye of photographers - and challenged their artistic and technical ingenuity - as much as the nude human body. For some 120 years the architectural grace and sensual vitality have been expressed in every kind of attitude in every kind of attitude in every kind of setting and with every possible photographic motive from lust to veneration. The Nude in Photography portrays these attitudes settings and motives as they have evolved since the 1850s when the photographer Durieu posed some of the earliest nudes in history under the direction of the artist Delacroix in Paris. The pictures have been assembled from around the world by Arthur Goldsmith whose taste and discernment are expert and whose position as editorial director of Popular Photography has given him an extraordinary vantage point from which to select not only the best of yesterday and today but the trends leading to tomorrow. Includes an Index of the photographers. ISBN: 0872234452. Playboy Press, Chicago: 1975 hardcover

PORTER. ELIOT PHOTOGRAPHS; EISELEY LOREN & MILTON JOHN P. INTRODUCTIONS; BROWER KENNETH FOREWORD
Galapagos: The Flow Of Wildness - Two Volumes - I. Discovery 2. Prospect
Sierra Club San Francisco. Hardcovers with dustjackets in a slipcase. Good condition but the dustjackets are slightly frayed. This is a book in praise of islands. Its two volumes are an investigation of the virtues of islands as points of reference both scientific and poetic. They are concerned with islands as laboratories refuges genetic reservoirs and places for future discovery. The book arose from concern for islands and the fragile life forms they have evolved the gentle insular wildness that is vanishing so rapidly around the world. Its concern is both for oceanic islands like the Galapagos and for islands isolated in other ways - for islands of life like the very small island of whooping cranes a last island of common genes and nesting calls or like the limited fraternity of the Indian rhinoceros or that of the freshwater seals of Lake Baikal.
