Schizogenesis The Art of Rosemarie Trockel【電子書籍】[ Katherine Guinness ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A deep analysis of an enigmatic artist whose oeuvre opens new spaces for understanding feminism, the body, and identity</strong></p> <p>Popular and pioneering as a conceptual artist, Rosemarie Trockel has never before been examined at length in a dedicated book. This volume fills that gap while articulating a new interpretation of feminist theory and bodily identity based around the idea of schizogenesis central to Trockel’s work.</p> <p>Schizogenesis is a fission-like form of asexual reproduction in which new organisms are created but no original is left behind. Author Katherine Guinness applies it in surprising and insightful ways to the career of an artist who has continually reimagined herself and her artistic vision. Drawing on the philosophies of feminists such as Simone de Beauvoir, Shulamith Firestone, and Monique Wittig, Guinness argues that Trockel’s varied output of painting, fabric, sculpture, film, and performance is best seen as opening a space that is peculiarly feminist yet not contained by dominant articulations of feminism.</p> <p>Utilizing a wide range of historical and popular knowledgeーfrom Baader Meinhof to Pinocchio, poodles, NASA, and BrechtーKatherine Guinness gives us the associative and ever-branching readings that Trockel’s art requires. With a spirit for pursuing the surprising and the obscure, Guinness delves deep into a creator who is largely seen as an enigma, revealing Trockel as a thinker who challenges and transforms the possibilities of bodily representation and identity.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,870円

How Doctors Think Clinical Judgment and the Practice of Medicine【電子書籍】[ Kathryn Montgomery ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>How Doctors Think</em> defines the nature and importance of clinical judgment. Although physicians make use of science, this book argues that medicine is not itself a science but rather an interpretive practice that relies on clinical reasoning. A physician looks at the patient's history along with the presenting physical signs and symptoms and juxtaposes these with clinical experience and empirical studies to construct a tentative account of the illness. <em>How Doctors Think</em> is divided into four parts. Part one introduces the concept of medicine as a practice rather than a science; part two discusses the idea of causation; part three delves into the process of forming clinical judgment; and part four considers clinical judgment within the uncertain nature of medicine itself. In <em>How Doctors Think</em>, Montgomery contends that assuming medicine is strictly a science can have adverse side effects, and suggests reducing these by recognizing the vital role of clinical judgment.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 5,618円

Eleven Possible Cases Deciphering Intriguing Mysteries in the Victorian Era【電子書籍】[ Anna Katharine Green ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "Eleven Possible Cases," Anna Katharine Green delves into the intricate world of detective fiction, a genre she helped pioneer in the late 19th century. This collection comprises eleven compelling stories that elegantly interweave mystery with psychological complexity. Green'??s prose is distinguished by its meticulous attention to detail and a profound understanding of human motivation, offering readers not just puzzles to be solved but also rich character studies. The book encapsulates the essence of an era transitioning from traditional narrative forms to modern detective storytelling, reflecting the societal fascination with crime and justice at the turn of the century. Anna Katharine Green, often celebrated as the 'mother of detective fiction,' was born in 1846 and was one of the first female authors to make a significant mark in a predominantly male literary arena. Her background in law and her keen observance of Victorian society contributed to her ability to craft multidimensional characters and plots that often challenged societal norms. This foundational work builds upon her earlier successes and cements her legacy in the genre, influencing future authors and shaping the conventions of crime fiction. "Eleven Possible Cases" is a must-read for enthusiasts of mystery literature and scholars examining the evolution of the genre. Green'??s intricate narratives are both engaging and intellectually stimulating, making the book a perfect choice for those who appreciate the intertwining of literary craft and suspenseful storytelling.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 310円

Mantz & J. Middleton Murry Kathleen Mansfield Murry (1888?1923) was a prominent New Zealand modernist short story writer who was born and brought up in colonial New Zealand and wrote under the pen name of Katherine Mansfield. At 19, Mansfield left New Zealand and settled in the United Kingdom, where she became a friend of modernist writers such as D.H. Lawrence and Virginia Woolf. Like Woolf, Mansfield was also interested in the feelings and thoughts of her characters rather than plot development and hence her short stories show the complexities of a character's interior life in all its various shades.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 300円

Good Nature The New Science of How Nature Improves Our Health【電子書籍】[ Kathy Willis ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>'This <strong>lucid and entertaining</strong> book presents compelling scientific evidence that proves what many of us have perhaps long suspected: nature is really good for us. I found it <strong>revelatory</strong>' <strong>Richard Deverell,</strong> <strong>Director of Kew</strong></p> <p><strong>A revolutionary, science-based look at the ways nature can help make us healthier.</strong></p> <p>Fifteen years ago, University of Oxford Professor Kathy Willis read a study that radically changed her view of our relationship to the natural world. The study revealed that hospital patients recovering from surgery improved three times faster when they looked out of their windows at trees rather than seeing walls.</p> <p>Since then, she has dedicated her research to proving this link between the amount of green space in our lives and our better health, mood and longevity. For the first time ever, Good Nature brings together these recent scientific findings and shares the simple changes we can all make in our lives. The book is full of surprising and practical ways that nature can improve our lives, such as: did you know that cedar enhances cancer-fighting cells in our immune system? Or that touching wood makes us feel calmer (the woodier, the knot-ier, the better)? Or that the scent of roses helps people drive more calmly and safely? Even having a pot plant by your desk can make a difference.</p> <p>A book with applications to everything from which way we walk to work to choosing where our kids should go to school, <em>Good Nature</em> brings the latest scientific research into our homes and workplaces. It shows how nature can help reduce the costs of healthcare and how, by bringing nature into our towns and cities, we can create a better, happier and healthier environment for all.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,565円

Kafka the Joker & Letter to a Friend【電子書籍】[ Don A Lashomb ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The early 20th century left him thoroughly alienated, but what if Franz Kafka came back to exact vengeance on a 21st century that was even less to his liking? Having once been buried in the roots of modernity, Kafka now seeks to discipline and correct a near-future not quite our own, and he does so with a smile. Told from the perspective of a police profiler finally getting to meet her literary hero--in his jail cell--"Kafka the Joker" takes a nonsensical situation and makes it mean something.</p> <p>"Letter to a Friend" uses the premise of private correspondence and turns it into a series of essays--twisted and twisting, insightful and inciting--which ultimately contribute to the dystopia already laid out in the first story. The lines between fact and fiction are blurred even further as a new "Underground Man" spins a whirlwind treatise about technological addiction, politics, serial killers--everything from Rousseau to the Unabomber--civilization and its malcontents.</p> <p>Two interlinked fictional experiments--presented in one ebook.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,286円

Successful Fundraising for the Academic Library Philanthropy in Higher Education【電子書籍】[ Kathryn Dilworth ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Successful Fundraising for the Academic Library: Philanthropy in Higher Education covers fundraising, a task that is often grouped into a combination role that may include, for example, the university museum or performance venue, thus diluting the opportunity for successful fundraising. Because the traditional model for higher education fundraising entails the cultivation of alumni from specific departments and colleges, the library is traditionally left out, often becoming a low-performing development area with smaller appropriations for fundraising positions. Most higher education development professionals consider the library fundraising position a stepping stone into another position with higher pay and more potential for professional advancement down the road rather than as a focus for their career. However, for universities that invest in development professionals who know how to leverage the mission of libraries to the larger alumni and friend community, the results include innovative and successful approaches to messaging that resonates with donors. This book provides information that applies to all fundraising professionals and academic leaders looking to strengthen their programs with philanthropic support, even those beyond university libraries. - Makes the case for university libraries as a viable avenue for donor engagement that translates to all academic areas of higher education fundraising - Highlights the importance of collaborative relationships and fundraising strategies with academic leaders, donors, and fundraising staff - Outlines strategies that have resulted in fundraising success for academic and research libraries at universities of varying size and culture</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 8,348円

Catching Breath The Making and Unmaking of Tuberculosis【電子書籍】[ Miss Kathryn Lougheed ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Tuberculosis is an ancient disease, but it's not a disease of history.</strong> With more than a million victims every year ? more than any other disease, including malaria ? and antibiotic resistance now found in every country worldwide, tuberculosis is once again proving itself to be one of the smartest killers humanity has ever faced. But it's hardly surprising considering how long it's had to hone its skills. Forty-thousand years ago, our ancestors set off from the cradle of civilisation on their journey towards populating the planet. Tuberculosis hitched a lift and came with us, and it's been there ever since; waiting, watching, and learning. In <em>The Robber of Youth</em>, Kathryn Lougheed, a former TB research scientist, tells the story of how tuberculosis and humanity have grown up together, with each being shaped by the other in more ways than you could imagine. This relationship between man and microbe has spanned many millennia and has left its mark on both species. We can see evidence of its constant shadow in our genes; in the bones of the ancient dead; in art, music and literature. Tuberculosis has shaped societies - and it continues to do so today.<br /> The organism responsible for TB, <em>Mycobacterium tuberculosis,</em> has had plenty of time to adapt to its chosen habitat ? human lungs ? and has learnt through natural selection to be an almost perfect pathogen. Using our own immune cells as a Trojan Horse to aid its spread, it's come up with clever ways to avoid being killed by antibiotics. But patience has been its biggest lesson - the bacterium can enter into a latent state when times are tough, only to come back to life when a host's immune system can no longer put up a fight. Today, more than one million people die of the disease every year and around one-third of the world's population are believed to be infected. That's more than two billion people. Throw in the compounding problems of drug resistance, the HIV epidemic and poverty, and it's clear that tuberculosis remains one of the most serious problems in world medicine.</p> <p><em>The Robber of Youth</em> follows the history of TB through the ages, from its time as an infection of hunter-gatherers to the first human villages, which set it up with everything it needed to become the monstrous disease it is today, through to the perils of industrialisation and urbanisation. It goes on to look at the latest research in fighting the disease, with stories of modern scientific research, interviews doctors on the frontline treating the disease, and the personal experiences of those affected by TB.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,438円

Now Coultonーa dashing colonelーis back. But Adriana has changed. No longer plain and thin, the years have transformed the arisctocratic lady into one of society’s most desirable maidens. When Coulton finally meets the lady he once spurned, will he feel differently about the ravishing beauty Adriana has become?</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,210円

<p>Originally published in 1956, this is a critical analysis of the comedies of Aristophanes and Menander studied in the context of the history of comedy, of the allied arts, and of contemporary life.</p> <p>Aristophanes and Menander are deservedly the most famous writers of Greek comedy. The extant comedies of Aristophanes are notable for wit, comical action, beautiful poetry, and the dramatization of such problems as health of mind and body, sex, money, government, law, religion, education, and drama, music and poetry. Menander portrays with delicate and sympathetic understanding a world in which the seeming evils of loss and discord eventually lead to the genuine goods of discovery and concord. The art of Aristophanes is critically examined in three chapters and that of Menander in one.</p> <p>For centuries Dionysos had been worshipped in a spirit of ecstasy which manifested itself in song, dance and the wearing of masks and costumes, pantomime, farce, and satire. The processes by which these diverse elements were developed and fused into the complex literary form of Old Comedy are the subject of the first three chapters.</p> <p>Aristophanes was not only pre-eminent as a writer of Old Comedy; he also participated in the transformation of Old Comedy into Middle Comedy, a curious and interesting dramatic form which is fully treated in the seventh chapter. In the last chapter the emergence of New Comedy is traced and the art of Menander criticized. The book ends with a brief indication of the various forms in which the spirit of Greek comedy had survived to the present day.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 6,447円
