  • Vision and Revision: A Reader for Writers by Karen S. Uehling

    Vision and Revision: A Reader for Writers

    Karen S. Uehling

    Vision and Revision is a multicultural, cross-generational reader which addresses the needs of nontraditional students: returning adults and younger students with adult responsibilities. Diverse selections, including essays, excerpts, articles, oral histories, letters, poems, short stories, and student-authored selections are organized thematically around such adult issues as returning to school, relationships and parenting, and work and recreation.

    Grounded in reader-response literacy theory, this text encourages students to read and respond actively and critically. Pre- and postreading journal entries and suggested writing projects prompt students to write personal, creative responses and analytical expository papers.

    Vision and Revision can be used as a companion volume to the author's rhetoric Starting Out or Starting Over: A Guide for Writing.

  • Starting Out or Starting Over: A Guide for Writing by Karen S. Uehling

    Starting Out or Starting Over: A Guide for Writing

    Karen S. Uehling

    Janice's "dorm" is the two-family house she shares with her husband, parents, and three children.

    Bill's idea of "homework" is his full-time carpentry business.

    And the last time Joe was in a classroom, he was meeting with his daughter's high-school teacher.

    These are the "new" students on college campuses: returning adults and younger students who have jobs, families, or both. Starting Out or Starting Over is the first basic writing text created specifically to suit their needs.

    The text incorporates many features that mature students can relate to: interviews, journal entries, and sample student essays that speak specifically to "new" students; emphasis on writing complete and personally significant essays right from the start; acknowledgment of special concerns that adults who have not written papers in a while might have, such as writer's block and anxiety; and a unique presentation of grammar guidelines, instead of rules.

    This book makes starting out or starting over not only less intimidating, but downright inviting.

  • Tümpisa (Panamint) Shoshone Dictionary by Jon P. Dayley

    Tümpisa (Panamint) Shoshone Dictionary

    Jon P. Dayley

    This dictionary is primarily of the Death Valley variety of what has come to be known in the linguistic and anthropological literature in recent years as Panamint (e.g., Freeze and Iannucci 1979; Lamb 1958 and 1964; McLaughlin 1987; Miller 1984), or sometimes Panamint Shoshone (Miller et al. 1971). In the nineteenth century and up to the middle of this century, it was often called Coso (sometimes spelled Koso) or Coso Shoshone (e.g., Kroeber 1925; Lamb 1958). In aboriginal times and even well into this century, Panamint was spoken by small bands of people living in southeastern California and extreme southwestern Nevada in the valleys and mountain ranges east of the Sierra Nevada. Thus, Panamint territory included the southern end of Owens Valley around Owens Lake, the Coso Range and Little Lake area, the southern end of Eureka Valley, Saline Valley and the eastern slopes of the Inyo Mountains, the Argus Range, northern Panamint Valley and the Panamint Mountains, northern and central Death Valley, the Grapevine Mountains and Funeral Range, the Amargosa Desert and area around Beatty, Nevada (see Maps, pp. x-xi; also Kroeber 1925:589-90 and Steward 1938:70ff).
