Reclaiming the Commons: Biodiversity, Traditional Knowledge, and the Rights of Mother Earth lays out the scientific, legal, political, and cultural struggle to defend the sovereignty of biodiversity and indigenous knowledge. Corporate war on nature and people through patents and corporate Intellectual Property Rights has unleashed an epidemic of biopiracy resulting in important legal battles fighting efforts to patent the rights to many plants, including basmati, neem, and wheat. The author presents details of the specific attempts made by corporations to secure these patents and the legal actions taken to fight them. The book goes beyond the legal struggle to position the necessary solutions to corporate control including the exploring the Rights of Nature and proposing a framework for a Universal Declaration of the Rights of Mother Earth. It is the first detailed legal history of the international and national laws related to biodiversity and Intellectual Property Rights.

Clean, comfortable staple for casual business wear
Color: Black, Size: Medium
Every wardrobe needs a sharp black button-down, and this JEMLDL Oxford shirt hits the nail on the head for versatile styling. The fabric has a nice, substantial weight to it—it's classic oxford cotton that feels durable but remains soft against the skin. The fit is tailored nicely without being a restrictive slim-fit, and the integrated back pleat gives your shoulders plenty of room to move without the shirt pulling untucked. It features a traditional chest pocket and a crisp button-down collar that holds its shape under a blazer or worn casually open over a white tee. It washes up great and doesn't shrink up into a mini-shirt after a cycle in the dryer. Pros: Heavy-duty, high-quality oxford cotton weave. Back pleat offers excellent shoulder mobility for active movement. Versatile styling that dresses up or down effortlessly. Cons: Like all quality cotton oxfords, it requires a quick iron or steam to look crisp. Fits true to size, but has zero elastane stretch in the fabric.

Nice Quality, Great Fit, and Very Comfortable!
Color: White, Size: XX-Large, Color: White, Size: XX-Large
I ordered this shirt for my husband, and he is very pleased with it. He says it is a really nice shirt that fits true to size and looks sharp. The fabric has a great, quality weight to it that gives it a structured appearance, making it versatile enough to easily transition from a casual day out to a more business casual setting at work. The biggest selling point for him is how comfortable it is. He mentioned that it feels great against the skin and offers excellent mobility throughout the day, thanks in large part to the classic back pleat design. The chest pocket is a nice, practical addition, and the classic Oxford style looks great right out of the dryer. It is a well made, reliable closet staple that he is already getting a lot of use out of, and we highly recommend it!
