Description:

This book explores the nature of one of the most ancient tools for nonverbal communication: drawings. They are naturally adaptable enough to meet an incredibly wide range of communication needs. But how exactly do they do their job so well?
Avoiding the kinds of aesthetic rankings of different graphic domains so often made by art historians and critics, Manfredo Massironi considers an extensive and representative sample of graphic applications with an open mind. He finds a deep mutuality between the material components of images and the activation of the perceptual and cognitive processes that create and decipher them.
Massironi first examines the material components themselves: the mark or line, the plane of representation (the angle formed by the actual drawing surface and the depicted objects), and the position of the viewpoint relative to the depicted objects. The roles played by these three components are independent of the content of the drawing; they function in the same way in concrete and abstract representations. He then closely scrutinizes the choices made by the person planning and executing the drawings. Given that any object can be depicted in an infinite number of different ways, the drawer performs continuous work emphasizing and excluding different features. The choices are typically unconscious and guided by his or her communicative goals. A successful graph, be it simple or complex, is always successful precisely because the emphasized features are far fewer in number than the excluded ones. Finally, he analyzes the perceptual and cognitive integrations made by the viewer.
Drawings are not simply tools for communication but important instruments for investigating reality and its structure. Richly illustrated, the book includes a series of graphic exercises that enable readers to get a sense of their own perceptual and cognitive activity when inspecting images. Massironi’s pathbreaking taxonomy of graphic productions will illuminate all the processes involved in producing and understanding graphic images for a wide audience, in fields ranging from perceptual and cognitive psychology through human factors and graphic design to architecture and art history.

Description:

Horses are fascinating and perceptive creatures. Developing a thorough understanding of how a horse interprets the world around them and deliberately being self-aware as a rider, are the essential skills to a successful and fulfilling partnership. In The Psychology of Horsemanship, well-known equestrian author and horse expert, Claire Lilley, shares her passion and knowledge about horses and riders developed from over forty years’ experience in the equestrian world, and more recently several years in the mental health profession. Divided into three sections, the book covers: Equine psychology – the horses’s senses, primary responses and emotion; Training psychology – the rider’s communication, training and learning from past experiences; Relational psychology – the goals, the development and the challenges faced in successful horsemanship. With high-quality photographs, diagrams and extended real-life examples, this book explores the application of psychology to the world of horses and how the understanding and evolvement of the horse-rider relationship impacts on both mental and physical development.

Description:

"After reading Teaching to Transgress I am once again struck by bell hooks’s never-ending, unquiet intellectual energy, an energy that makes her radical and loving." — Paulo Freire

In Teaching to Transgress, bell hooks–writer, teacher, and insurgent black intellectual–writes about a new kind of education, education as the practice of freedom. Teaching students to "transgress" against racial, sexual, and class boundaries in order to achieve the gift of freedom is, for hooks, the teacher’s most important goal.

bell hooks speaks to the heart of education today: how can we rethink teaching practices in the age of multiculturalism? What do we do about teachers who do not want to teach, and students who do not want to learn? How should we deal with racism and sexism in the classroom?

Full of passion and politics, Teaching to Transgress combines a practical knowledge of the classroom with a deeply felt connection to the world of emotions and feelings. This is the rare book about teachers and students that dares to raise questions about eros and rage, grief and reconciliation, and the future of teaching itself.

"To educate is the practice of freedom," writes bell hooks, "is a way of teaching anyone can learn." Teaching to Transgress is the record of one gifted teacher’s struggle to make classrooms work.

Description:

Lorena Walsh offers an enlightening history of plantation management in the Chesapeake colonies of Virginia and Maryland, ranging from the founding of Jamestown to the close of the Seven Years’ War and the end of the “Golden Age” of colonial Chesapeake agriculture.
Walsh focuses on the operation of more than thirty individual plantations and on the decisions that large planters made about how they would run their farms. She argues that, in the mid-seventeenth century, Chesapeake planter elites deliberately chose to embrace slavery. Prior to 1763 the primary reason for large planters’ debt was their purchase of capital assets – especially slaves – early in their careers. In the later stages of their careers, chronic indebtedness was rare.
Walsh’s narrative incorporates stories about the planters themselves, including family dynamics and relationships with enslaved workers. Accounts of personal and family fortunes among the privileged minority and the less well documented accounts of the suffering, resistance, and occasional minor victories of the enslaved workers add a personal dimension to more concrete measures of planter success or failure.

Description:

President Trump has torn up the TTIP and TPP. Britain is distancing itself from the European Union. Does this means that corporate globalization is in retreat? Privatized Planet exposes the truth about ‘free trade’ in this new era of globalization. And this time it’s even worse for working people… Quoting leaked documents, corporate lobby memos and a host of other primary sources, it seeks to prove that corporate globalization is simply changing shape, not coming to an end. Author T.J. Coles takes us on a tour of US-led corporate free trade deals from WWII to the present. He argues that activists helped beat back the big multilateral trade deals, TTIP and TPP, and that they must now pay attention to the ‘noodle bowl’ (as economists call it) of bilateral deals being signed in secret, like the ongoing US-UK free trade deal. Whether it’s privatizing Britain’s National Health Service, lobbying to get genetically-modified foods and hormone-treated beef into Europe, pushing fracking on Eastern European countries, or murdering environmental activists in the third world, the US-led corporate empire will stop at nothing until the planet is in private hands.

Description:

Women in the Printing Trades: A Sociological Study is a pioneering work by James Ramsay MacDonald, first published in 1904, that offers an in-depth exploration of the roles, experiences, and challenges faced by women working in the British printing industry at the turn of the twentieth century. Drawing on extensive research, interviews, and statistical data, the book examines the social, economic, and industrial conditions that shaped women’s employment in various branches of the printing trades, including compositors, bookbinders, machine minders, and other related occupations. MacDonald delves into the historical context of women’s entry into the printing workforce, tracing the evolution of their participation from the early days of the industry to the contemporary period of his study. He analyzes the factors that influenced women’s employment, such as technological advancements, trade union policies, educational opportunities, and prevailing social attitudes toward gender roles. The book provides detailed accounts of working conditions, wages, hours, and the division of labor between men and women, highlighting both the progress made and the persistent inequalities that women faced. Through vivid case studies and personal testimonies, Women in the Printing Trades brings to life the daily realities of female workers, their aspirations, and the obstacles they encountered, including discrimination, limited access to skilled positions, and the struggle for fair treatment and representation within trade unions. MacDonald also discusses the impact of legislation and reform movements aimed at improving the status and welfare of women in the workplace. A significant contribution to the fields of labor history, gender studies, and industrial sociology, this book not only documents the experiences of women in a key sector of the British economy but also raises important questions about the broader implications of women’s work for social change and gender equality. Women in the Printing Trades remains a valuable resource for understanding the complexities of women’s labor and the ongoing quest for justice and opportunity in the world of work.

Description:

Whether it’s the rule-defying lifer, the sharp-witted female newshound, or the irascible editor in chief, journalists in popular culture have shaped our views of the press and its role in a free society since mass culture arose over a century ago.

Drawing on portrayals of journalists in television, film, radio, novels, comics, plays, and other media, Matthew C. Ehrlich and Joe Saltzman survey how popular media has depicted the profession across time. Their creative use of media artifacts provides thought-provoking forays into such fundamental issues as how pop culture mythologizes and demythologizes key events in journalism history and how it confronts issues of race, gender, and sexual orientation on the job.

From Network to The Wire, from Lois Lane to Mikael Blomkvist, Heroes and Scoundrels reveals how portrayals of journalism’s relationship to history, professionalism, power, image, and war influence our thinking and the very practice of democracy.
