10. Kamari Maxime Clark, Associate Professor of Anthropology and African American Studies. Box 1

Over the years, Clarke's research has ranged from studies of diasporic and religious movements in the United States and West Africa to related transnational legal movements, to inquiries into the cultural politics of power and new international justice regimes connected to nongovernmental organizations and international criminal legal institutions. She is the author of Mapping Yoruba Networks: Power and Agency in the Making of Transnational Networks (Duke University Press, 2004), Globalization and Race: Transformations in the Cultural Politics of Blackness (Duke University Press, 2006), and Testimonies and Transformations: Reflections on the Uses of Ethnographic Knowledge (forthcoming). Her current project explores issues related to human rights movements and the cultural politics of international treaties, tribunals, courts, and the increasing roles of Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs) in new relations of governance. Her specialization is the cultural aspects of globalization, relationships between religion and law, and social theory and the micro processes of governance.

Women demonstrate different sensitivity to nicotine and exhibit a poorer response to nicotine replacement therapies compared to men, and across the menstrual cycle. We hypothesized that these differences are due to variations in nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) in brain. nAChRs containing the beta2 subunit (beta2-nAChR) are one of the initial sites of action of nicotine in brain, and are critical for reinforcing effects of nicotine. We evaluated beta2-nAChR availability using single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and the nicotinic agonist radiotracer [I-123]5-IA-85380 ([I-123]5-IA) (1) in men versus women nonsmokers to examine sex differences and (2) in women nonsmokers over the course of the menstrual cycle. Ten men (age 27.7 + 7.3) and 19 women (aged 26.2 + 6.8) participated in one [I-123]5-IA scan and one MRI. Nine women (age 18-39 y) participated in a second [123I]5-IA scan. Scans were performed during the early follicular (days 4-7 and one subject on day 11) and midluteal (days19-25) phases of the menstrual cycle. beta2-nAChR availability was approximately 20% higher in women versus men nonsmokers throughout the brain. beta2-nAChR availability did not vary with menstrual cycle. Thus, women have higher beta2-nAChR availability compared to men; however, this does not appear to be a function of menstrual cycle phase. This suggests that sex differences may be determined in utero or during brain maturation. Higher beta2-nAChR availability in women compared to men explains the differential sensitivity to nicotine, and may explain why it is more difficult for women to quit smoking.

The second volume contains letters, dated between 1722 and 1732, by various correspondents including Mary, Countess Cowper, the Duchess of Kent, the Countess of Pomfret, and the Countess of Pembroke, and are of a primarily social nature; topics include visits in town and Mrs. Clayton's health.
