The Growing Ute Living Language Program is a “just in time” revitalization effort, working hand-in-hand with Tribal Elders to record and teach the Ute language and culture for future generations. Across the continent, Indigenous languages are going extinct, robbing communities of their ancient connection to ancestors, thought processes, and way of life. With just 20 living, fluent Elders remaining, the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe has stepped in with dramatic and impactful language revitalization efforts. 

These books are part of that effort. Highly collectible, rare and sought after. 

There is one minor bump on the cover of the second volume (pictured above).

Propaganda, Myth, and History in Four Ancient Civilizations

She convincingly demonstrates that while it may have been based on actual persons and events, this body of prehistoric writing is a deliberately created tangle of what we could call propaganda, myth, and fact, written for political purposes, and not (as many contemporary scholars have come to believe) reliable history in a modern sense.

David B. Malament

2012 University of Chicago. Minor scratches on cover. No annotations or highlights. Almost like new.

In Topics in the Foundations of General Relativity and Newtonian Gravitation Theory, David B. Malament presents the basic logical-mathematical structure of general relativity and considers a number of special topics concerning the foundations of general relativity and its relation to Newtonian gravitation theory. These special topics include the geometrized formulation of Newtonian theory (also known as Newton-Cartan theory), the concept of rotation in general relativity, and Gödel spacetime. One of the highlights of the book is a no-go theorem that can be understood to show that there is no criterion of orbital rotation in general relativity that fully answers to our classical intuitions. Topics is intended for both students and researchers in mathematical physics and philosophy of science.

Traditional Mexican American Herbal Remedies

Traditional Mexican American herbal potions and remedies and their history are explained in an introductory book for the general reader. The importance of curanderismo, or green medicine, in Mexican and Mexican American cultures is explored. A brief history traces the herbal aspects of curanderismo through Mayan and Aztec cultures, the Spanish conquest, and Hippocrates' theory of humors, and finds contributions from many cultures intermixed with native lore. Other chapters discuss where to obtain herbs, preparation methods, and hazards of herb use. A glossary defines 33 substance effect terms. The largest part of the book contains information about 99 of the most widely used herbs arranged alphabetically by their English common name, with their Spanish name and cross-references provided. Entries include history of the herbs, medicinal uses, and preparation methods. A brief, annotated bibliography lists nine books about herbal medicine, Mexican remedies, and curanderismo. (LFL)
