Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cavitt Izon Breeze was born with a relatively rare eye disorder called micropthalmia, which means he has been totally blind since birth. At the very beginning of his life family member started to lay the framework for him to one day become totally independent. This independence requires preparing his mind, body, and spirit to respond to each life's event with proper thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in order to ensure proper development of his physical, emotional, cognitive, social, and moralistic well-being. These areas of development are the main subject of this book. Each issue, experience, accomplishment, and failure shared by the blind people in this book are addressed to Cavitt, who is five years old, but are applicable to any child who is blind and entering the pathway to independence. The stories you will read in this book are about real people with one thing in common, blindness. Some, like little Cavitt they were blind from birth. Others became blind shortly after birth but do not remember ever seeing. They all have a message, "I did it my way, and here is my way." These unique people, who are blind, expressed their mental and emotional selves in a manner that illustrated the physical, psychological, intellectual, social, and moralistic situations in their lives. They showed a willingness to live a life to its fullest despite their handicap.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "There is perhaps no object as uncanny as the corpse--or more subject to elaborate taboos--and few topics yield as much cross-cultural anxiety as human mortality. Yet beliefs and practices around death never stand still. The New Death brings together scholars who are intrigued by today's rapidly changing death practices and attitudes. New and different ways of treating the body and memorializing the dead are proliferating across global cities. What are the beliefs, values, and ontologies entwined with these emergent death practices? Are we witnessing a shifting relationship between the living and the dead? Using ethnographic, historical, and media-based approaches, the contributors to this volume focus on new attittudes and practices around mortality and mourning--from the possibilities of digitally enhanced afterlives to industrialized 'necro-waste,' the ethics of care, the meaning of secular rituals, and the political economy of death. Together, the chapters coalesce around the argument that there are two major currents running through the new death-reconfigurations of temporality and of intimacy. Some aspects of the new death represent a remaking of older ideas and practices. But whether they draw on 'tradition' or on evolving technologies, people are reaching for new memorial objects to keep the dead present in their lives and new rituals to manage the timing and tempo of death. Pushing back against the folklorization endemic to anthropological studies of death practices and the whiteness of death studies as a field, the chapters strive to override divisions between the Global South and the Anglophone world, focusing instead on syncretization, globalization, and magic within the mundane" --

This book was released on 2023-10-13 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1984, Death, Burial and the Individual in Early Modern England traces how and why the modern reaction to death has come about by examining English attitudes to death since the Middle Ages. In earlier centuries death was very much in the midst of life since it was not, as now, associated mainly with old age. War, plague and infant mortality gave it a very different aspect to its present one. The author shows in detail how modern concern with the individual has gradually alienated death from our society; the greater the emphasis on personal uniqueness, the more intense the anguish when an individual dies. Changes in attitudes to death are traced through alterations in funeral rituals, covering all sections of society from paupers to princes. This gracefully written book is a unique, scholarly and thorough treatment of the subject, providing both a sensitive insight into the feelings of people in early modern England and an explanation of the modern anxiety about death. The range and assurance of this book will commend it to historians and the interested general reader alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times article once stated that “the art of the essay as delivered by [Sam] Pickering is the art of the front porch ramble.” As Pickering himself puts it, “Well, I have gotten considerably older, and humor has come to mean more and more to me. And if I’m on the front porch, I am in a rocking chair.” All My Days Are Saturdays offers fifteen new pieces in which he ponders a world that has changed and, in new ways, still delights him. This collection features Pickering writing about teaching and his recent retirement, visits to various locales, and, as he tell us, “the many people I meet...who tell me their stories, small tales that make one laugh and sigh.” Distinctive and unmistakable, Pickering’s style deftly mixes the colloquial language of everyday life with references to a lifetime of extensive reading. The seamless blend of these two worlds in his writing is indicative of how they fuse together in his daily life. As Pickering puts it, “All my life I have roamed libraries, almost as much as I have roamed the natural world. I try to get at many truths, but when I tell the truth, I ‘tell it slant.’ I do so to describe life as it is and indeed celebrate that ‘as it is.’” “Pickering is a master of his craft, one of the finest of personal essayists around, and these essays bear many of the characteristics of his other volumes—reflections on his everyday activities and on individuals around him, humorous exchanges with his wife, and so forth. But this volume seems to have something else as well. We find here a thoughtful meditation on time and self and relative old age demonstrating a close attention to the natural world—a tone not unlike Thoreau’s at times.” -- Fred C. Hobson, Professor of English, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, and author or editor of fourteen books, most recently A Southern Enigma: Essays on the U.S. South

Book excerpt: Dr. Bethany Witt wasn't well liked, but Dr. Tara Ross was sure nobody wanted her colleague dead. That is until Tara finds the young woman embalmed and posed in the Barn, an annex of her office once used for embalming 100 years ago. It's a slam-dunk case when Troopers arrest Bethany's ill-tempered ex-boyfriend, a local funeral home employee, based on forensics linking him to the crime scene. Although it looks bad for Bethany's ex, Tara and her fiancé, NYPD Captain Jeffrey Corrigan, aren't convinced he's the right guy and search for another possible killer. Their investigation takes a twisted turn when Brewster Medical Center's CEO suffers the same gruesome fate. With Bethany's ex-boyfriend jailed, homicide investigator, Ty Marchinski, insists a copycat killer did in the CEO, dismissing Jeffrey's theory that the murders are related. Neither murders in his jurisdiction, Jeffrey has no choice but to heed to Ty's request to back off the case. However, Tara persists in her own investigation, determined to find The Embalmer. After she disappears, Jeffrey is back in the game, racing Ty to find the woman he loves before The Embalmer silences her.
