Hermaphroditic creatures reproduce both as male and as female individuals, providing a fascinating glimpse into alternative sexual practices in nature and their ecological and evolutionary successes and failures. Eloquently written by an award-winning biologist and pioneer in molecular ecology, this primer on hermaphroditism traces the phenomenon throughout Earth's myriad species, accounting for the adaptive significance of alternative sexual systems. Accessible and richly illustrated, the text maps the evolutionary origins of hermaphroditism, as well as its historical instances and fictional representations, underscoring the relevance of dual sexuality to our biological, intellectual, and cultural making. John C. Avise describes the genetics, ecology, phylogeny, and natural history of hermaphroditic plants, fish, and invertebrate animals and details organisms that either reproduce simultaneously as male and female or switch routinely between one sex and the other. Filled with surprising creatures and compelling revelations, this textbook stands alone in its clear yet comprehensive treatment of hermaphroditism and its unique challenge to the supremacy of separate sexes. 606 $aIntersexuality 606 $aIntersexuality in animals 615 0$aIntersexuality. 615 0$aIntersexuality in animals. 676 $a616.6/94 700 $aAvise$b John C$0531461 701 $aNicholson$b Trudy H$01580840 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789852703321 996 $aHermaphroditism$93862050 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03750nam 2200661 a 450 001 9910968583803321 005 20240416154859.0 010 $a9780674070998 010 $a0674070992 010 $a9780674067585 010 $a0674067584 024 7 $a10.4159/harvard.9780674067585 035 $a(CKB)2670000000330107 035 $a(StDuBDS)AH24970291 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000819568 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11974529 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000819568 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10845519 035 $a(PQKB)11115746 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3301214 035 $a(DE-B1597)178017 035 $a(OCoLC)827083283 035 $a(OCoLC)979740223 035 $a(DE-B1597)9780674067585 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3301214 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10654362 035 $a(Perlego)1148265 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000330107 100 $a20120525d2013 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aCitizenship and its discontents $ean Indian history /$fNiraja Gopal Jayal 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aCambridge, Mass. $cHarvard University Press$d2013 215 $a1 online resource (viii, 366 pages) 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 08$a9780674066847 311 08$a0674066847 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aThe subject-citizen: a colonial anomaly -- Legal citizenship and the long shadow of the partition -- Aspirational citizenship: migrants and emigrants -- Pedagogies of duty, protestations of rights -- The unsocial compact -- Social citizenship in neo-liberal times -- Genealogies of mediated citizenship -- Passages from backwardness to citizenship -- The future of the civic community. 330 $aBreaking new ground in scholarship, Niraja Jayal writes the first history of citizenship in the largest democracy in the world-India. Unlike the mature democracies of the west, India began as a true republic of equals with a complex architecture of citizenship rights that was sensitive to the many hierarchies of Indian society. In this provocative biography of the defining aspiration of modern India, Jayal shows how the progressive civic ideals embodied in the constitution have been challenged by exclusions based on social and economic inequality, and sometimes also, paradoxically, undermined by its own policies of inclusion. Citizenship and Its Discontents explores a century of contestations over citizenship from the colonial period to the present, analyzing evolving conceptions of citizenship as legal status, as rights, and as identity. The early optimism that a new India could be fashioned out of an unequal and diverse society led to a formally inclusive legal membership, an impulse to social and economic rights, and group-differentiated citizenship. Today, these policies to create a civic community of equals are losing support in a climate of social intolerance and weak solidarity. Once seen by Western political scientists as an anomaly, India today is a site where every major theoretical debate about citizenship is being enacted in practice, and one that no global discussion of the subject can afford to ignore. 606 $aCitizenship$zIndia$xHistory 606 $aCivics, East Indian 607 $aIndia$xPolitics and government$y1947- 615 0$aCitizenship$xHistory. 615 0$aCivics, East Indian. 676 $a323.60954 700 $aJayal$b Niraja Gopal$01805684 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910968583803321 996 $aCitizenship and its discontents$94354418 997 $aUNINA
