Description

Something in the Soil: Legacies and Reckonings in the New WestIn Something in the Soil, Patricia Nelson Limerick travels far outside the usual academic circles to bring Western past and Western present into a spirited union. Whether her topic is the rapid growth in the West today, the patent awfulness of most academic writing, or struggles over the standing of the "Great White Men" of the region s past, Limerick operates on the principle that history is an active presence in the West, layers of collective memory

In Something in the Soil, Patricia Nelson Limerick travels far outside the usual academic circles to bring Western past and Western present into a spirited union. Whether her topic is the rapid growth in the West today, the patent awfulness of most academic writing, or struggles over the standing of the "Great White Men" of the region s past, Limerick operates on the principle that history is an active presence in the West, layers of collective memory that are, quite literally, "something in the soil." Enlightening and always witty, this wide-ranging collection of essays and arguments from the New West s landmark historian offers an artful journey into its dramatic past and contentious present."

Essential Resource for Agile Practitioners and Exam Prep
Format: Paperback
The Agile Practice Guide by PMI is an indispensable resource for anyone looking to understand and implement agile methodologies. As someone preparing for the CAPM exam (or working in project management), I found this guide incredibly clear and concise. It effectively breaks down complex agile concepts into digestible information, making it easy to grasp the core principles. It's not just theoretical; it provides practical insights that are directly applicable to real-world projects. A must-have for both certification candidates and active project managers.
