In Hot Pursuit of Language in Prehistory

Author: John D. Bengtson
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing
ISBN: 9027232520
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 500

Book Description
Compiled in honor and celebration of veteran anthropologist Harold C. Fleming, this book contains 23 articles by anthropologists (in the general sense) from the four main disciplines of prehistory: archaeology, biogenetics, paleoanthropology, and genetic (historical) linguistics. Because of Professor Fleming's major focus on language he founded the Association for the Study of Language in Prehistory and the journal Mother Tongue the content of the book is heavily tilted toward the study of human language, its origins, historical development, and taxonomy. Because of Fleming's extensive field experience in Africa some of the articles deal with African topics. This volume is intended to exemplify the principle, in the words of Fleming himself, that each of the four disciplines is enriched when it combines with any one of the other four. The authors are representative of the cutting edge of their respective fields, and this book is unusual in including contributions from a wide range of anthropological fields rather than concentrating in any one of them.

Book Description
Criminal Alliance - Angi Morgan The fate of the city rests in their hands. When FBI operative Therese Ortis and Texas Ranger Wade Hamilton agree to team up, they have one goal in mind: find and stop an algorithm that could destroy Dallas -- or worse. But going undercover in order to bring down a criminal organisation comes with its own form of danger. If discovered, they're bound to be torn apart. Then, not only will their beloved city pay the price, but Therese and Wade will suffer unforeseen -- and unimaginable -- consequences. Secret Agent Surrender - Elizabeth Heiter This undercover agent can't disguise his true desire! Undercover DEA agent Marcos Costa is shocked to see Brenna Hartwell -- his very first crush -- cosying up to the brutal drug lord he's about to bust! He hasn't seen her since childhood, but he never imagined she'd turn to a life of crime. What the hunky agent doesn't know is that Brenna's working her own bust as a rookie cop undercover. Brenna didn't think she'd ever see Marcos again, especially not on her first undercover mission! She knows she has to keep her distance...but while she and Marcos play out their daring ruse, their youthful passion reignites. One wrong move could blow their covers. Can two loners used to self-reliance trust their lives -- and hearts -- to each other? Alpha One - Cynthia Eden 'Julie's missing. You have to get her back.' The minute he got the message, undercover agent Logan Quinn sprang into action. Getting Juliana James out of Mexico alive was the Elite Ops covert agent's only priority. But once the senator's daughter was safely back in their Mississippi hometown, Logan had a new mission: to get another chance with the woman he couldn't lose again. Juliana never forgot the day, ten years ago, when Logan left her heart in pieces. Now he was back in her life, sworn to protect her from the ruthless weapons dealer who wanted her dead. As passion blindsided her -- and she was once again thrust into danger -- Julie realised how much she'd risk for one more day in Logan's arms.
