- Comments: The spine of a book is often the first to show signs of aging and frequent use, bearing the weight of repeated opening and closing. This wear might manifest as creases, cracks, or even partial detachment, but it also signifies that the book has been well-loved and thoroughly read. Such physical characteristics add a layer of history and character to the book, distinguishing it from pristine, untouched copies.

SUMMARY
"Sandhya Shukla and Heidi Tinsman have put together a remarkable volume that takes the reader in surprising scholarly directions. The essays stage vital conversations between the Pacific Rim and Latin America through the vector of U. S. empire; between black diaspora and mestizaje through the comparative calculus of race; between queer, feminist histories and Cold War politics in the crucible of the Caribbean. This volume represents the next wave of scholarship in transnational American studies, one in which the coordinates have necessarily shifted beyond the geographical confines of 'the Americas' but which is ever-focused on relations of power."-MarÍa Josefina SaldaÑa-Portillo, author ofThe Revolutionary Imagination in the Americas and the Age of DevelopmentShukla, Sandhya is the author of 'Imagining Our Americas Toward a Transnational Frame', published 2007 under ISBN 9780822339618 and ISBN 0822339617.
