Making up more than ten percent of Alaska's population, Native Alaskans are the state's largest minority group. Yet most non-Native Alaskans know surprisingly little about the histories and cultures of their indigenous neighbors, or about the important issues they face. This concise book compiles frequently asked questions and provides informative and accessible responses that shed light on some common misconceptions. With responses composed by scholars within the represented communities and reviewed by a panel of experts, this easy-to-read compendium aims to facilitate a deeper exploration and richer discussion of the complex and compelling issues that are part of Alaska Native life today.

Generally considered the most important study of American Indian education, this book, originally published in 1972, has been unavailable for several years. It examines every facet of the education of Native Americans, both present and future. Education for Indian youth across the nation varies strikingly according to numerous factors such as sources of funding for the schools, location, curriculum, faculty, and cultural differences. In her new introduction, Margaret Connell Szasz brings the book up to date, accounting for the events of the decade 1972-82 and their significance -- Back cover.

An analysis of Aleut personal names is presented, derived from census data obtained during a 1790-1792 scientific expedition to the Aleutian Islands. The census contained about 1,500 different Aleut male names from 66 villages, listed alphabetically and interpreted here. Some identifiable female names are also included. The work also provides insight into Aleut culture and values. An introductory section provides background about the expedition, the finding of the manuscripts containing the census information, issues in interpretation of the manuscript data (including spelling variations), an analysis of formal aspects of Aleut names (one-word and phrasal names, word classes and construction, dialectal features, foreign elements), different accounts of naming customs, and a tentative semantic classification of names as referring to human beings, nature, subsistence, social relations, and other elements. The corpus of names is then presented by location. Names are also indexed, and a map of Aleut communities is included. (MSE)
