In this fully illustrated book, originally published to tie in with his BBC TV series, Ray Mears brings to life the survival skills used by native peoples in the most inhospitable, yet most incredible, environments on Earth. With photographs taken from the Arctic to the Kalahari and the Australian outback, this is both a practical guide to survival and an extensive journey around the world in a study of different cultures and lands. Ray shows us how much we can learn from the skills and techniques of these ancient peoples and how they are still applicable in modern times.

At the turn of the century, women represented over half of the American foreign mission force and had settled in “heathen” China to preach the lessons of Christian domesticity. In this engrossing narrative, Jane Hunter uses diaries, reminiscences, and letters to recreate the backgrounds of the missionaries and the problems and satisfactions they found in China. Her book offers insights not only into the experiences of these women but also into the ways they mirrored the female culture of Victorian America. “A subtle and finely written book… [on] an aspect of the mission world in China that has never before received such probing, affectionate, detailed treatment.”―Jonathan Spence, New York Review of Books “An important and often entertaining work….New angles on imperialism and gentility alike.”―Martin E. Marty, Reviews in American History “A triumph of sophisticated subtle intelligence. Though quite cognizant of the dark side of the confluence of American nationalism and the missionary enterprise, Hunter’s interest is in moving beyond that understanding to explore how the meeting of two cultures affected, and was shaped by, a female angle of vision.”―Regina Morantz-Sanchez, Signs “Jane Hunter writes better than most novelists, and she has a topic more demanding and rewarding than the subjects many novelists deal with. Her story of the valiant and ofttimes guilt-ridden women who ventured to China, singly or with spouses, to win the country for Christ creates a world and beckons readers into it.”―Christian Century

"This book offers a new, research-based approach to STEM education in early, elementary, and middle years of schooling, concentrating on building teacher agency and integrated approaches in high possibility STEM classrooms. Based on large-scale research data from three long-term studies across 14 schools conducted in multicultural, disadvantaged, and urbanized communities in Australia, author Jane Hunter presents a globally minded, contemporary framework for powerful, integrated STEM learning. Theory, creativity, life preparation, and contextual accommodations are all utilized to help educators create hands-on, inquiry-led, and project-based approaches to STEM education in the classroom. A set of highly accessible case studies are offered that place pedagogy at the center of practice - an approach valuable for researchers, school leaders, and teachers alike. Ultimately, this text responds to the call for examples of what successfully integrated STEM teaching and learning looks like in schools. Concluding with an evidence-based blueprint in the final chapter - demonstrating 10 directions for the future of Integrated STEM in school education - Hunter argues not only for high possibility STEM classrooms, but for high possibility STEM schools, reviving the dialogue around the future direction of STEM, STEAM, assessment, and development within the classroom setting. Jane Hunter is a researcher and teacher in K-12 education, Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences, University of Technology Sydney, Australia"--
