Book Synopsis Dark Forces at Work by : Cynthia J. Miller
Download or read book Dark Forces at Work written by Cynthia J. Miller and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-11-06 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dark Forces at Work examines the role of race, class, gender, religion, and the economy as they are portrayed in, and help construct, horror narratives across a range of films and eras. These larger social forces not only create the context for our cinematic horrors, but serve as connective tissue between fantasy and lived reality, as well. While several of the essays focus on “name” horror films such as IT, Get Out, Hellraiser, and Don’t Breathe, the collection also features essays focused on horror films produced in Asia, Europe, and Latin America, and on American classic thrillers such as Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho. Key social issues addressed include the war on terror, poverty, the housing crisis, and the Time’s Up movement. The volume grounds its analysis in the films, rather than theory, in order to explore the ways in which institutions, identities, and ideologies work within the horror genre.

Book Synopsis Musculoskeletal Disorders and the Workplace by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book Musculoskeletal Disorders and the Workplace written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-05-24 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every year workers' low-back, hand, and arm problems lead to time away from jobs and reduce the nation's economic productivity. The connection of these problems to workplace activities-from carrying boxes to lifting patients to pounding computer keyboards-is the subject of major disagreements among workers, employers, advocacy groups, and researchers. Musculoskeletal Disorders and the Workplace examines the scientific basis for connecting musculoskeletal disorders with the workplace, considering people, job tasks, and work environments. A multidisciplinary panel draws conclusions about the likelihood of causal links and the effectiveness of various intervention strategies. The panel also offers recommendations for what actions can be considered on the basis of current information and for closing information gaps. This book presents the latest information on the prevalence, incidence, and costs of musculoskeletal disorders and identifies factors that influence injury reporting. It reviews the broad scope of evidence: epidemiological studies of physical and psychosocial variables, basic biology, biomechanics, and physical and behavioral responses to stress. Given the magnitude of the problem-approximately 1 million people miss some work each year-and the current trends in workplace practices, this volume will be a must for advocates for workplace health, policy makers, employers, employees, medical professionals, engineers, lawyers, and labor officials.

Download or read book Forces at Work written by Amy Shapiro and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we choose our careers? Forces At Work shows what influenced 85 people in a long-term study, correlating career path to the natal chart. This book gives new perspectives on career development, with "blind" insights by astrologer Oskar Adler, a new look at Gauquelin Sectors, Part of Fortune, Asteroids, Chiron, Ceres and Eris. A great tool for Astrologers and Career Counselors. Reviewer comments from the back cover: "Amy Shapiro's new book, Forces at Work: Astrology and Career is a thorough and comprehensive astrological guide for anyone wishing to understand the uncanny connections between their astrological chart and their work path. Every HR department should have a copy for reference!" -- Shelley L. Ackerman, Astrologer, Author, Columnist, Karmic Relief.com, TheAsthete.com"Amy's Forces at Work fills a gap in the astrological literature of career by providing in-depth research that combines personality theory with astrology. Her study, based on a thorough career survey, incorporates insights from the work of Dr. Oskar Adler, along with comments from study participants to pinpoint astrological findings. This work will appeal to the intermediate to advanced astrologer who wants to refine career counseling methodology." -- Stephanie Jean Clement, Ph.D., Astrologer, Author, President, American Federation of Astrologers"Amy Shapiro's comprehensive book on the use of astrology in career counseling is unique for its detailed case studies through which her depth of counseling experience shines. I was particularly intrigued by her inclusion of the new (since 2006) planets Eris and Ceres in her interpretations-not many astrologers are using Eris at all yet, and most still treat Ceres as an asteroid. Amy's description of Eris as 'provocateur' is interesting, insightful and well supported within her analyses." -- Maria Kay Simms, Astrologer, Artist, Author Starcrafts Publishing"Besides relationships and health, choice of a career and life direction is commonly one of an astrological client's most pressing issues. Uniquely, Shapiro not only discusses the usual vocational indicators in the horoscope, she also adds unfamiliar but powerful concepts and interpretations from the legendary Dr. Oskar Adler. Plus, she backs up the theory with scores of charts accompanied by feedback in the subjects' own words. This book will give seasoned counselors new and useful insights. Augmented by handy tips, definitions and checklists, it will also set beginners on the road to perfecting this all-important part of their practice."--Patricia White, Vice-President, Astrolabe"Amy Shapiro is a brilliant Astrologer whose writings illumine deep cosmic connections between one's personal passions and professional path. Amy reveals the power of Astrology as a healing and guiding force and innovative and profound tool for Career Counselors." -- Patricia Huxley-Cohen, MSW, LICSW, Psychotherapist / Counselor; pioneered programs adopted by the Dept of Labor."Forces at Work combines traditional career counseling techniques with classic astrology. Amy's unique ability to employ her technical skills in both disciplines is revealed in this in-depth study, which the serious practitioner will find insightful." -- Ed Kaznocha, Labor Market Economist In his Foreword, Economist Ed Kaznocha explains how this book explores realms beyond the tools of standard career evaluation surveys.
Book Synopsis Musimathics, Volume 1 by : Gareth Loy
Download or read book Musimathics, Volume 1 written by Gareth Loy and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2011-08-19 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A commonsense, self-contained introduction to the mathematics and physics of music; essential reading for musicians, music engineers, and anyone interested in the intersection of art and science. “Mathematics can be as effortless as humming a tune, if you know the tune,” writes Gareth Loy. In Musimathics, Loy teaches us the tune, providing a friendly and spirited tour of the mathematics of music—a commonsense, self-contained introduction for the nonspecialist reader. It is designed for musicians who find their art increasingly mediated by technology, and for anyone who is interested in the intersection of art and science. In Volume 1, Loy presents the materials of music (notes, intervals, and scales); the physical properties of music (frequency, amplitude, duration, and timbre); the perception of music and sound (how we hear); and music composition. Calling himself “a composer seduced into mathematics,” Loy provides answers to foundational questions about the mathematics of music accessibly yet rigorously. The examples given are all practical problems in music and audio. Additional material can be found at http://www.musimathics.com.
