Book Synopsis A Moveable Beast: Tales From L.A. & Beyond by : Jim Marquez
Download or read book A Moveable Beast: Tales From L.A. & Beyond written by Jim Marquez and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-04-07 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Jim Marquez, the acclaimed author of such whiskey-fueled contemporary classics as "Beastly Bus Tales", "Watching the Skies & Other Beastly Tales," and Jim's schizophrenic-murder-mystery "Pieces of L.A.", comes his long-awaited 15th self-published book "A Moveable Beast: Tales from L.A. & Beyond". As in Jim's previous titles the reader is assaulted with lurid and outlandish tales of sticky sex, cheap booze, cheaper dames, uncomfortable truths in race relations, violence, the homeless epidemic, bars, death, broken relationships, bad sex, no sex, and, in general, the corruption of the mind, body, and soul. Follow Jim across the rat infested, alcohol drenched, sad, pitiful, lost, and lonely streets of not only Jim's hometown of East Los Angeles and his adoptive backyards of Downtown LA and Koreatown, but, also Las Vegas, Paris, Berlin, Milan, Ireland, and South Korea. Devilishly written in Jim's infamous-no-holds-barred-over-the-top-foul-mouthed-and-train-wreck-first-person narrative.

Book Synopsis Environmental History and the American South by : Paul Sutter
Download or read book Environmental History and the American South written by Paul Sutter and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This reader gathers fifteen of the most important essays written in the field of southern environmental history over the past decade. Ideal for course use, the volume provides a convenient entrée into the recent literature on the region as it indicates the variety of directions in which the field is growing. As coeditor Paul S. Sutter writes in his introduction, “recent trends in environmental historiography--a renewed emphasis on agricultural landscapes and their hybridity, attention to the social and racial histories of environmental thought and practice, and connections between health and the environment among them--have made the South newly attractive terrain. This volume suggests, then, that southern environmental history has not only arrived but also that it may prove an important space for the growth of the larger environmental history enterprise.” The writings, which range in setting from the Texas plains to the Carolina Lowcountry, address a multiplicity of topics, such as husbandry practices in the Chesapeake colonies and the aftermath of Hurricane Andrew. The contributors’ varied disciplinary perspectives--including agricultural history, geography, the history of science, the history of technology, military history, colonial American history, urban and regional planning history, and ethnohistory--also point to the field’s vitality. Conveying the breadth, diversity, and liveliness of this maturing area of study,Environmental History and the American Southaffirms the critical importance of human-environmental interactions to the history and culture of the region.

Download or read book A Reason to Live written by Vicki Hutton and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2019-06-14 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Reason to Live explores the human-animal relationship through the narratives of eleven people living with HIV and their animal companions. The narratives, based on a series of interviews with HIV-positive individuals and their animal companions in Australia, span the entirety of the HIV epidemic, from public awareness and discrimination in the 1980s and 1990s to survival and hope in the twenty-first century. Each narrative is explored within the context of theory (for example, attachment theory, the "biophilia hypothesis," neurochemical and neurophysiological effects, laughter, play, death anxiety, and stigma) in order to understand the unique bond between human and animal during an "epidemic of stigma." A consistent theme is that these animals provided their human companions with "a reason to live" throughout the epidemic. Long-term survivors describe past animal companions who intuitively understood their needs and offered unconditional love and support during this turbulent period. More recently diagnosed HIV-positive narrators describe animal companions within the context of hope and the wellness narrative of living and aging with HIV in the twenty-first century. Bringing together these narratives offers insight into one aspect of the multifaceted HIV epidemic when human turned against human, and helps explain why it was frequently left to the animals to support their human companions. Importantly, it recognizes the enduring bond between human and animal within the context of theory and narrative, thus creating a cultural memory in a way that has never been done before.

Book Synopsis Environmental Health by : Dade W. Moeller
Download or read book Environmental Health written by Dade W. Moeller and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dramatic changes in the field of environmental health since the Third Edition was published in 2004 demand a new, radically updated version of this essential textbook. Based on the recommendations of advisory bodies and federal agency regulations, as well as a thorough review of the scientific literature, Dade W. Moeller’s Fourth Edition is the only fully current text in this burgeoning field. It features new tables and figures and revisions of those retained from previous editions. Environmental Health is also enriched with the knowledge and insights of professionals who are deeply involved in “real world” aspects of each subject covered. In eighteen chapters, students receive a complete but manageable introduction to the complex nature of the environment, how humans interact with it, and the mutual impact between people and the environments where they work or live. This new edition emphasizes the challenges students will face in the field: the local and global implications of environmental health initiatives, their short- and long-range effects, their importance to both developing and developed nations, and the roles individuals can play in helping to resolve these problems. Whether discussing toxicology, injury prevention, risk assessment, and ionizing and non-ionizing radiation, or more traditional subjects like the management and control of air, water, and food, Moeller emphasizes the need for a systems approach to analyzing new projects prior to their construction and operation. Environmental Health is indispensable reading for practitioners, students, and anyone considering a career in public health.
Book Synopsis Energy Impacts by : Jeffrey B. Jacquet
Download or read book Energy Impacts written by Jeffrey B. Jacquet and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Society and Natural Resources Book Series, copublished with the Society and Natural Resources Press Development of various energy sources continues across North America and around the world, raising questions about social and economic consequences for the places and communities where these activities occur. Energy Impacts brings together important new research on site-level social, economic, and behavioral impacts from large-scale energy development. Featuring conceptual and empirical multidisciplinary research from leading social scientists, the volume collects a broad range of perspectives to understand North America’s current energy uses and future energy needs. Twelve chapters from respected scholars in a variety of disciplines present new ways to consider and analyze energy impact research. Focused on varied energy topics, geographies, and disciplines, each chapter includes a policy brief that summarizes the work and provides “key takeaways” to apply the findings to policy and public discourse. Meaningful public engagement is critical in limiting the negative implications of energy development, and understanding the social influences on and of energy systems is a cornerstone of addressing the climate crisis. As such, Energy Impacts is a significant work for students, scholars, and professionals working in sociology, education, geography, environmental studies, and public health. This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. 1528422. Publication is also supported, in part, by Montana State University.
