Book Description
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1943, Upton Sinclair was a prolific American novelist and polemicist for socialism, health, temperance, free speech and worker rights. His classic muckraking novel ‘The Jungle’ is regarded as a landmark naturalistic proletarian work, praised by Jack London as “the ‘Uncle Tom’s Cabin’ of wage slavery.” Sinclair also reached a wide audience with his Lanny Budd series of contemporary historical novels, concerning the adventures of an antifascist hero, who witnesses key events surrounding the two World Wars.

Book Description
Many farmers in sub-Saharan Africa suffer heavily from crop losses due to stem borer pests. Insecticides are often unaffordable; therefore, maize plants must be made resistant to pests. The 'Insect Resistant Maize for Africa' (IRMA) project in Kenya was aimed at developing new maize varieties both by conventional methods and by biotechnologically incorporating the endotoxin produced by the soil bacteriumBacillus thuringiensis. The author gives an impartial and chronological account of this exemplary project between 1999 and 2008, supplemented by discussions of agricultural development policy and descriptions of Kenyan smallholders and the project team. He also takes critical and rational positions on the use of modern plant breeding techniques, biotechnology and development policy.

Book Description
Irma's Seed is dedicated to, and inspired by, the author's high school English teacher, Irma Eareckson, whose brilliant year-long homework assignment in her 1961-62 creative writing class has been long remembered by students who benefited from its challenge and breath of scope. Miss Eareckson asked each student to write a novel, whose chapters were presented in different forms of creative writing, including a short story, free-verse poem, sonnet, one-act play, traditional chapter narrative, convincing dialogue, soliloquy, rhyming poem, etc.-in whatever order the student selected so long as the novel was coherent in the story line, within and among the numerous writing forms. The motto of The Principia School is "As the Sowing, the Reaping," and this volume of beach poems and life poems, published many decades later, may be said to have sprung from Irma's seed. Irma Eareckson's challenging gauntlet thrown to her students so long ago is reflected in the variety of poems in this collection, including haiku, a bit of doggerel paying homage to Ogden Nash, limericks inspired by Edward Lear, and an assortment of autobiographical verses that steps beyond the personal to the universal.
