The police killing of George Floyd in May 2020 triggered a wave of protests like no other in history. Millions took to the streets in over forty US cities and across the globe in a multiracial, militant, and mobile uprising, calling not only for justice for all Black victims but for vast and visionary changes to police and social structures. How did we get here? Conducting a historical autopsy, Robin Kelley approaches the lives and deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Eric Garner, Breonna Taylor, and so many others as a portal to the racist histories that strangled them and their communities. From the slave patrols and lynch law of the Deep South to segregated housing, the war on drugs, slum clearance, predatory lending, and extraction of wealth, Kelley draws a direct line from the "blood at the root"-the racial terror at the heart of the American social and economic order-to the latest casualties of that terror. This is also the story of Black resistance, of decades of organizing, political education, and movement building. The protesters who came out swinging, calling to defund the police, are part of a long line of combatants fighting to emancipate, democratize, and lay to rest the America as we know it so that a new world may be born.

A world expert on Jesus and the Gospels cuts through the controversy surrounding Mel Gibson's new movie about the resurrection of Jesus and his journey through Hell.

This much-needed text will fill an important gap for the practicing obstetrician in connecting what is seen on ultrasound before delivery with what is seen grossly at delivery, how this is interpreted and reported by the pathologist, and its clinical relevance for the obstetrician. With the increasing need for clinicians to understand pathological correlation, this will be an essential reference for both obstetricians in general practice and trainees; perinatal pathologists will also find this an invaluable guide to what their colleagues need to know.

There is an increasing prevalence of large and complex datasets within the social sciences, and notably criminology in recent years.

Chirality plays a major role in biological processes and the enantiomers of a bioactive molecule often possess different biological effects. Accurate assessment is critical as isomeric impurities may have unwanted toxicological, pharmacological, or other effects. Separation techniques remain the method of choice for this area of drug research but there is a great deal of trial and error in choosing a particular column for a chiral separation. This book gives a rationale for choosing a stationary phase that is based on the relationship that exists between the analytes and the chiral stationary phases. The text provides examples to underline the separation mechanism.

This book examines the role of linen undergarments in concepts of propriety and health in early-modern England. Acknowledging the difficulties in researching the habits of cleanliness in the past, particularly the unreliability of personal testimony for reasons of bias and modesty, the study sets out a methodology for researching aspects of bodily hygiene, first delineating in full what the advice was in both conduct and medical literature. By incorporating not only dress, social and medical histories, but also evidence from surviving clothing, the book serves as an example of an interdisciplinary methodology and a potential model for other histories of other "unspoken" subjects.
