ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: McCusker, John J. / Morgan, Kenneth O. / Morgan, Kenneth, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, This book throws new light on the interlocking commercial relationships of the Atlantic trading world during the centuries ending with the American and French Revolutions.

Modernity - An Ethnographic Approach: Dualism and Mass

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Miller, Daniel, PUBLISHER: Berg Publishers, From cultural studies, sociology, media studies, gender studies and elsewhere there have been a spate of books recently which have attempted to characterize the state of modernity. Many of these have also argued that what is required is an ethnographic work to determine how far these supposed trends actually apply to a given population. This book explicitly accepts this challenge and, in so doing, demonstrates the potential of modern anthropology studies. It starts by summarizing some debates on modernity and then argues that the Caribbean island of Trinidad is particularly apt for such a study given the origins of its population in slavery and indentured labour, both forms of extreme social rupture.The particular focus of this book is on mass consumption and the way goods and imported images such as soap opera have been used to express and develop a number of key contradictions of modernity. It will be of interest to anthropologists looking for a new potential for the discipline, as well as students in other fields who will be interested in the new contribution of anthropology to their debates.

Webern Studies

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bailey, Kathryn / Kathryn, Bailey, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, This book looks at the music of Webern from several new perspectives. The most recent Webern scholarship has emphasized Webern's lyricism, and this is a theme running through Webern Studies. Other techniques not generally associated with Webern are also explored: two chapters illustrate and examine his apparent early interest in octatonic and pitch-specific motivic collections. In addition to previously unpublished entries from Webern's diaries, the volume includes all the row tables for his twelve-note music. There is also a new and comprehensive Webern bibliography.

Authorship and Film

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gerstner, David A. / Staiger, Janet, PUBLISHER: Routledge, Authorship in film has been a persistent theme in the field of cinema studies. This volume of new work revitalizes the question of authorship by connecting it to larger issues of identity--in film, in the marketplace, in society, in culture. Essays range from the auteur theory and "Casablanca" to Oscar Micheaux, from the American avant-garde to community video, all illuminating how "authorship" is a complex idea with far-reaching implications. This ambitious and wide-ranging book will be essential reading for anyone concerned with film studies and the concept of the author.

Case Studies in General and Systematic Pathology

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Underwood / Underwood, J. C. E. / Underwood, James C. E., PUBLISHER: Churchill Livingstone, A collection of 60 case studies, each presented as a common clinical problem, with some intriguing titles, including: 'He's just not himself anymore' and 'My leg gave way'. Each case history takes form of a narrative interrupted by questions with the relevant answers alongside. With its problem-based approach, it helps students appreciate the correct path to diagnosis of the pathological signs and symptoms. An excellent revision companion, each case has a revision box of key topics linked in to the main textbook so the student can refer to it for more details. Although the case studies correspond to chapters in the main textbook (three cases per chapter), the reader approaches each case as they would present in life, symptom-first. Illustrated throughout with full color gross and histopathological photographs as well as clinical photographs, radiographs and line diagrams, this book has an instant visual appeal and presents the subject in a refreshing and innovative way.
