Locating the Field: Space, Place and Context in Anthropology

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Coleman, Simon / Collins, Peter, PUBLISHER: Berg Publishers, Are reports of the death of conventional fieldwork in anthropology greatly exaggerated? This book takes a critical look at the latest developments and key issues in fieldwork. The nature of "locality" itself is problematic for both research subjects and fieldworkers, on the grounds that it now must be maintained and represented in relation to widening (and fragmenting) social frames and networks. Such developments have raised questions concerning the nature of ethnographic presence and scales of comparison. From the social space of a cybercafe, to cities in India, the UK and South Africa among others, this book features a wide range of ethnographic studies that provide new ways of looking at the concepts of "locality" and "site."

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Haviland, William A., PUBLISHER: Wadsworth Publishing Company, Haviland et al. present anthropology from a holistic, four-field perspective using three unifying themes to provide a framework for the text: the varied ways human groups face the many challenges of existence, the connections between human culture and human biology, and the disparate impact of globalization on peoples and cultures around the world. Between the superlative writing-which instructors raved about in their reviews-and the strong pedagogical program, the text is designed to help students grasp the concepts and their relevance to today's complex world. Such pedagogy as the "Challenge Issue" at the beginning of each chapter and the "Questions for Reflection" at the end of each chapter--which are linked to the Challenge Issue--provide a framework that ensures that the chapters consistently focus on and reflect the text's themes. Boxed features such as "Biocultural Connections," "Original Studies," and "Anthropology Applied" hone in on particularly interesting examples that give students deeper insight into the meaning and relevance of a wide range of topics covered in the general narrative.

The Future Is Happy

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Sarai, Sarah, PUBLISHER: Blazevox Books, Poetry. "With both wit and tenderness, Sarah Sarai rigorously navigates the dialectics of knowledge and not knowing, thinking and being, the fantastic and the quotidian, the spiritual and the earthy, in language that is by turns crisp and lush. These are heady, whip-smart, funny and moving poems in which time becomes fluid and vertical--high-rise pageant of art, ephemera, filigree and memory through which our physical and temporal bodies spark and fall much too quickly"--Lee Ann Roripaugh.

A Window Into Eternity: A Jungian Perspective on Marriage

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hill, Psy D. Robert D. / Hill, Robert D., Psy., PUBLISHER: PublishAmerica, All things in the universe were originally created as pairs of opposites. Life is also created as pairs of opposites, that of male and female. While men and women are physically separate individuals, this is not the case of the inner spiritual being that is revealed as opposites of a single reality. This book explains how to unite the opposites of male and female so this inner spiritual reality can be experienced. Carl Jung gave exact definitions of the human soul and the nature of the inner spiritual reality that has nothing to do with any religious view. Jung defined religion as a numinous experience, or spiritual, and all organized religion as the codification of the original numinous experience. Marriage is a spiritual experience where the uniting of the opposites leads to the very throb of creation itself. The nature and source of life can only be realized through the combination of male and female and never as separate individuals. The uniting of the opposites provides us with A Window Into Eternity.

The Soul of Psychotherapy: Recapturing the Spiritual

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Cornett, Carlton, PUBLISHER: Free Press, Mental health professionals often struggle to understand spirituality and the role it plays in their clients' lives. Many therapists would like to take spiritual issues into account, and to incorporate them, as they do with other areas of patients' lives, into their overall approach, but feel they lack the training or competency to do so effectively. In this concise, thoughtful, and practical book, clinician Carlton Cornett describes how to integrate the issues of spirituality into everyday practice. Cornett addresses the needs of therapists and counselors who treat both clients committed to their religious beliefs, and those who initially might not identify spirituality as an area of struggle, but for whom spiritual issues are real, yet hidden, sources of distress. He shows therapists how to open the door to the spiritual dimension in their work through cases from his practice, and demonstrates the impact and relevance of religion and spirituality on the clinical process.
