A very good book in my field.

My postdoc mentor is one of the authors, and it was an inspiration to me during my studies

The Tall Woman honors an enduring fortitude: born from the will to serve others, nourished by the beauty of the land, and dedicated to the bonds of family and community.

History seems to have forgotten that before Adam Smith published The Wealth of Nations, he published The Theory or Moral Sentiments. Many elements of our modern society and economy have developed with insights from the later work, while ignoring that it was meant to be viewed through the lens of the first work. Collier makes excellent points about how ethics and empathy are needed to soften the impact of pure capitalism.

A little-known story of the horrible conditions faced by brave race pioneers in college sports in our own state.

One of my favorites.

After reading this book, I knew I wanted to pursue a PhD in European History.

I'm intentionally seeking out work by women of color writing about the environment - not just for the sake of representation, but because these voices bring essential perspectives that are too often overlooked. Their work tends to be rooted in community, justice, and lived experience, offering insights we desperately need in the climate movement. This isn't about identity alone - it's about broadening the conversation to include the people already leading some of the most creative and courageous environmental work.
