Book Synopsis The Geography of Intellect by : Nathaniel Weyl
Download or read book The Geography of Intellect written by Nathaniel Weyl and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until the first publication of the Geography of Intellect in 1963, the study of human intelligence, its distribution and causes, had been confined to inaccessible scholars’ journals. With the publication of works by Carleton S. Coon, Ernst Mayr and others—dealing with the evolution of man and his various sub-groups—has grown a strong popular interest in the findings of anthropological science: What has made man? Why do his civilizations rise and fall? How can we make certain that our current rate of material progress is maintained or increased, that we do not fall into the graveyard of civilizations wherein are buried Periclean Greece, Imperial Rome, Post-Inquisition Spain, Islamic civilization and the monstrous Nazi regime? “No one can read Nathaniel Weyl without realizing the has is clearly a man of intellectual honesty, attempting to perform a signal service for us all.”—NATIONAL REVIEW “So lucid and admirable a style”—NEW REPUBLIC “Professor Possony is an admirable historian, and his book is a careful and well-documented account.”—THE ANNALS “Dr. Possony—deeply steeped in general sociology—stands out among the younger historians whose work has commanded attention in Europe and in this country.”—THE NEW LEADER
Book Synopsis Cruising the Library by : Melissa Adler
Download or read book Cruising the Library written by Melissa Adler and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2017-04-03 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cruising the Library offers a highly innovative analysis of the history of sexuality and categories of sexual perversion through a critical examination of the Library of Congress and its cataloging practices. Taking the publication of Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick’s Epistemologies of the Closet as emblematic of the Library’s inability to account for sexual difference, Melissa Adler embarks upon a detailed critique of how cataloging systems have delimited and proscribed expressions of gender, sexuality, ethnicity, and race in a manner that mirrors psychiatric and sociological attempts to pathologize non-normative sexual practices and civil subjects. Taking up a parallel analysis, Adler utilizes Roderick A. Ferguson’s Aberrations in Black as another example of how the Library of Congress fails to account for, and thereby “buries,” difference. She examines the physical space of the Library as one that encourages forms of governmentality as theorized by Michel Foucault while also allowing for its utopian possibilities. Finally, she offers a brief but highly illuminating history of the Delta Collection. Likely established before the turn of the twentieth century and active until its gradual dissolution in the 1960s, the Delta Collection was a secret archive within the Library of Congress that housed materials confiscated by the United States Post Office and other federal agencies. These were materials deemed too obscene for public dissemination or general access. Adler reveals how the Delta Collection was used to regulate difference and squelch dissent in the McCarthy era while also linking it to evolving understandings of so-called perversion in the scientific study of sexual difference. Sophisticated, engrossing, and highly readable, Cruising the Library provides us with a critical understanding of library science, an alternative view of discourses around the history of sexuality, and an analysis of the relationship between governmentality and the cataloging of research and information—as well as categories of difference—in American culture.

Book Synopsis Everything You Know About God Is Wrong by : Russ Kick
Download or read book Everything You Know About God Is Wrong written by Russ Kick and published by Red Wheel Weiser. This book was released on 2007-06-01 with total page 778 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the new mega-anthology from best-selling editor Russ Kick, more than fifty writers, reporters, and researchers invade the inner sanctum for an unrestrained look at the wild and wooly world of organized belief. Richard Dawkins shows us the strange, scary properties of religion; Neil Gaiman turns a biblical atrocity story into a comic (that almost sent a publisher to prison); Erik Davis looks at what happens when religion and California collide; Mike Dash eyes stigmatics; Douglas Rushkoff exposes the trouble with Judaism; Paul Krassner reveals his “Confessions of an Atheist”; and best-selling lexicographer Jonathon Green interprets the language of religious prejudice. Among the dozens of other articles and essays, you’ll find: a sweeping look at classical composers and Great American Songbook writers who were unbelievers, such as Irving Berlin, creator of “God Bless America”; the definitive explanation of why America is not a Christian nation; the bizarre, Catholic-fundamentalist books by Mel Gibson’s father; eye-popping photos of bizarre religious objects and ceremonies, including snake-handlers and pot-smoking children; the thinly veiled anti-Semitism in the Left Behind novels; an extract from the rare, suppressed book The Sex Life of Brigham Young; and rarely seen anti-religious writings from Mark Twain and H.G. Wells. Further topics include exorcisms, religious curses, Wicca, the Church of John Coltrane, crimes by clergy, death without God, Christian sex manuals, the “ex-gay” movement, failed prophecies, bizarre theology, religious bowling, atheist rock and roll, “how to be a good Christian,” an entertaining look at the best (and worst) books on religion, and much more.

Book Synopsis Ideas and Art in Asian Civilizations by : Kenneth R. Stunkel
Download or read book Ideas and Art in Asian Civilizations written by Kenneth R. Stunkel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-05-11 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work covers topics related to the exercise of influence by individuals and groups within organizations. It includes an introductory group of articles dealing with the nature of influence processes and power. With more than two-thirds fresh material, this new updated edition of Organizational Influence Processes provides an overview of the most important scholarly work on topics related to the exercise of influence by individuals and groups within organizations. In selecting articles for inclusion the editors were guided by the conviction that the most useful and interesting way to view organizational influence is to take a directional approach - that is, to consider the process from the perspective of downward, lateral, and upward influence. They have organized the readings around this framework, preceded by an introductory group of articles dealing more generally with the nature of influence processes and power. The book includes both classic readings and the latest cutting edge research from some of the most respected experts writing in the field. It will be equally useful for any upper level undergraduate or graduate course concerned with organizational behavior, group behavior, leadership or power and politics.

Book Synopsis A Global History of Sexual Science, 1880–1960 by : Veronika Fuechtner
Download or read book A Global History of Sexual Science, 1880–1960 written by Veronika Fuechtner and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sex has no history, but sexual science does. Starting in the late nineteenth century, scholars and activists all over the world suddenly began to insist that understandings of sex be based on science. As Japanese and Indian sexologists influenced their German, British and American counterparts, and vice versa, sexuality, modernity, and imaginings of exotified “Others” became intimately linked. The first anthology to provide a worldwide perspective on the birth and development of the field, A Global History of Sexual Science contends that actors outside of Europe—in Asia, Latin America, and Africa—became important interlocutors in debates on prostitution, birth control or transvestitism. Ideas circulated through intellectual exchange, travel, and internationally produced and disseminated publications. Twenty scholars tackle specific issues, including the female orgasm and the criminalization of male homosexuality, to demonstrate how concepts and ideas introduced by sexual scientists gained currency throughout the modern world.
