While the recorded use of toxins in warfare in some ancient populations is rarely disputed (the use of arsenical smoke in China, which dates to at least 1000 BC, for example) the use of "poison arrows" and other deadly substances by Native American groups has been fraught with contradiction. At last revealing clear documentation to support these theories, anthropologist David Jones transforms the realm of ethnobotany in Poison Arrows. Examining evidence within the few extant descriptive accounts of Native American warfare, along with grooved arrowheads and clues from botanical knowledge, Jones builds a solid case to indicate widespread and very effective use of many types of toxins. He argues that various groups applied them to not only warfare but also to hunting, and even as an early form of insect extermination. Culling extensive ethnological, historical, and archaeological data, Jones provides a thoroughly comprehensive survey of the use of ethnobotanical and entomological compounds applied in wide-ranging ways, including homicide and suicide. Although many narratives from the contact period in North America deny such uses, Jones now offers conclusive documentation to prove otherwise. A groundbreaking study of a subject that has been long overlooked, Poison Arrows imparts an extraordinary new perspective to the history of warfare, weaponry, and deadly human ingenuity. 606 $aIndian weapons$zNorth America 606 $aIndians of North America$xEthnobotany 606 $aIndians of North America$xHunting 606 $aArrow poisons$zNorth America 606 $aPoisonous plants$zNorth America 606 $aPoisonous animals$zNorth America 606 $aNeurotoxic agents$zNorth America 615 0$aIndian weapons 615 0$aIndians of North America$xEthnobotany. 615 0$aIndians of North America$xHunting. 615 0$aArrow poisons 615 0$aPoisonous plants 615 0$aPoisonous animals 615 0$aNeurotoxic agents 676 $a355.8/2 700 $aJones$b David E.$f1942-$0196542 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910973852903321 996 $aPoison arrows$94345142 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05120nam 2200733Ia 450 001 9910968479003321 005 20251117084009.0 010 $a1-280-77631-5 010 $a9786613686701 010 $a0-203-11943-6 010 $a1-136-31513-6 024 7 $a10.4324/9780203119433 035 $a(CKB)2670000000205705 035 $a(EBL)981956 035 $a(OCoLC)796932319 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000686029 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11399568 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000686029 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10731547 035 $a(PQKB)11204643 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC981956 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL981956 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10572254 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL368670 035 $a(OCoLC)796813513 035 $a(OCoLC)1086539720 035 $a(FINmELB)ELB134441 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000205705 100 $a20111107d2012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 04$aThe global economic crisis and the developing world $eimplications and prospects for recovery and growth /$fedited by Ashwini Deshpande and Keith Nurse 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aLondon ;$aNew York $cRoutledge$d2012 210 1$aLondon ;$aNew York :$cRoutledge,$d2012. 215 $a1 online resource (381 p.) 225 1 $aRoutledge studies in development economics ;$v95 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a1-138-80820-2 311 08$a0-415-67128-0 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aFront Cover; The Global Economic Crisis and the Developing World; Copyright Page; Contents; List of figures; List of tables; Notes on contributors; 1.

As back then, the crisis has exposed the major structural imbalances in financial and credit markets in addition to global trade forcing many governments, developed and developing, to impose debilitating austerity measures that are exacerbating the structural weaknesses that caused the crisis in the first place.This volume offers historical insights into the origins of the contemporary crisis as well as detailed analyses of the financial and 410 0$aRoutledge studies in development economics ;$v95. 606 $aGlobal Financial Crisis, 2008-2009 607 $aDeveloping countries$xEconomic conditions$y21st century 607 $aDeveloping countries$xEconomic policy$y21st century 615 0$aGlobal Financial Crisis, 2008-2009. 676 $a330.9172/4 701 $aDeshpande$b Ashwini$f1965-$01876374 701 $aNurse$b Keith$01876375 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910968479003321 996 $aThe global economic crisis and the developing world$94488002 997 $aUNINA
