Starstrike: Task Force Mars by Kevin Dockery

Drawing on an ethnographic study of a remote community in the Auvergne, Dr. Reed-Danahay challenges conventional views about the operation of the French school system. She shows how parents subvert and resist the ideological messages of the teachers, and describes the ways in which a sense of local difference is sustained and valued, even in the official educational discourse. A significant contribution to the anthropology of education, this book offers fresh insights into the ways in which French culture is transmitted to the coming generation. Dr. Reed-Danahay also provides lucid and critical discussions of sociological theories on education, including those of Bourdieu.
Kevin Dockery is a noted military historian and the author of many books, including Future Weapons, Navy SEALs: The Complete History, and One Perfect Op: Navy SEAL Special Warfare Teams. He served in the President's Guard under Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, and spent time in Iraq and Kuwait during Desert Storm as, as he puts it, a corporate mercenary. He lives in Ohio.

Douglas Niles has written more than thirty-five novels, including the WWII alternate-history thrillers MacArthur's War: A Novel of the Invasion of Japan, Fox on the Rhine, and Fox at the Front (all co-authored with Michael Dobson). The latter two novels were both Main Selections of the Military Book Club and Featured Selections of the Science Fiction Book Club. He lives in Delavan, Wisconsin.
