Caribbean Herbalism -...

Aleya Fraser

For millennia, people have utilized plants as foods, medicines, hallucinogens, clothing, shelter, perfumes, dyes, and even poisons. In the Caribbean, medicinal and practical use of plants began with its first inhabitants, the Amerindians. New plants and knowledge were introduced through both triangular trade with Asia, Africa, and Europe and the enslavement of Africans and Indians from Southeast Asia, culminating in the modern-day system of Caribbean herbalism.Caribbean Herbalism tells the rich and complex stories of Caribbean people and the plants that have sustained them. Inside you'll find: 
A practical guide to a meaningful selection of herbs and their traditional usesBotanical field notes and drawings that tell the stories of the Indigenous, African, East Indian, and European plants that inhabit the regionCulturally important traditions, remedies, and recipesInterviews with Caribbean people 
 
This book offers practical tools you need to build a relationship with plants and make common Caribbean herbal remedies like bush teas, bush baths, herbal wines, infused alcohols and oils, and more!

Machine Readable Me - The Hidden...

Zara Rahman

As we go about our day-to-day lives, digital information about who we are is gathered from all angles via biometric scans, passport applications, and, of course, social media. This data can never fully capture our complex, fluid identities over decades of our lives. Yet, this data populates numerous databases we may not even be aware of that can make life-or-death decisions such as who is allowed access to welfare benefits or who is granted food parcels as they pass war-torn borders.
Machine Readable Me considers how and why data that is gathered about us is increasingly limiting what we can and can't do in our lives and, crucially, what the alternatives are.
