Book excerpt: A product of a poor gene pool, Hiya endeavored to live beyond her physical limitations and intellectually excel beyond those around her. She lived a life of constant discovery, research, learning, and teaching, which was complicated frequently by doctors, hospitals, treatments, insurance companies, and the law. After serving as the go to research driven caregiver for family and friends for most of her adult life, Hiya found herself in critical need of medical attention. Living on the brink of poverty and without family support, she did what shed always done for others and became her own advocate. Written as an inspired biography, the story of Hiya and the epilogue were written as a legacy to an amazing woman who epitomized patient advocacy and why it has become a critical determining factor in the quality of healthcare that an individual may receive. What readers have said The book was very well written and I found the Epilogue to be particularly compelling and strong. The story itself kept me interested and motivated to keep reading. I have known patients like Hiya in my years in healthcare and I could well see how you became very attached to her. Anonymous professional caregiver Hiyas story is illustrative of the key messages involving patient advocacy and the healthcare system. For others, perhaps theyd like to read the Epilogue first, they then would read Hiyas amazing story of tenacity. Lorraine Stiehl, patient advocate coordinator, California Institute for Regenerative Medicine

Book Synopsis Emotions in Crosslinguistic Perspective by : Jean Harkins
Download or read book Emotions in Crosslinguistic Perspective written by Jean Harkins and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2010-12-14 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume aims to enrich the current interdisciplinary theoretical discussion of human emo-tions by presenting studies based on extensive linguistic data from a wide range of languages of the world. Each language-specific study gives detailed semantic descriptions of the meanings of culturally salient emotion words and expressions, offering fascinating insights into people's emotional lives in diverse cultures including Amharic, Chinese, German, Japanese, Lao, Malay, Mbula, Polish and Russian. The book is unique in its emphasis on empirical language data, analyzed in a framework free of ethnocentrism and not dependent upon English emotion terms, but relying instead on independently established conceptual universals. Students of languages and cultures, psychology and cognition will find this volume a rich resource of description and analysis of emotional meanings in cultural context.

Book Synopsis Finding Our Feet by : Mary Isabelle Bresnahan
Download or read book Finding Our Feet written by Mary Isabelle Bresnahan and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 1991 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Westerners and Americans in particular, Philippine culture is deceptively familiar. Vestiges of Spanish and American colonial culture, as well as contemporary American media, have created resonances for identifying American culture in Philippine culture. This book guides the reader in re-examining these assumptions of sameness. By taking an unfamiliar text of a noted writer of Tagalog fiction, this study restores the sense of wonder in experiencing Tagalog culture on its own terms rather than by tastes dictated from the outside. The book also examines the broader Tagalog traditions in which the writer, Amado Hernandez, wrote.
Book Synopsis 33 Traditional Native American Songs for Tongue Drum and Handpan by : Helen Winter
Download or read book 33 Traditional Native American Songs for Tongue Drum and Handpan written by Helen Winter and published by Helen Winter. This book was released on 2021-05-25 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music is an integral part in the life of the Native Americans, playing a key role in ceremonies, recreational activities, self expression, and healing. Many different instruments are used in Native American music, including drums, flutes, and other percussion instruments. These songs were adapted here for Tongue Drum and Handpan and they are possible to play on most drum models. The steel tongue drum (aka tong drum, tank drum, gluck-o-phone, hapi, or steeldrum) and the handpan (aka hank drum, UFO drum, zen drum, meditation, healing, yoga or chakra drum) are percussion musical instruments designed to help you focus on your feelings, sensations, and body. In musical science, a unique Native American style of singing can be distinguished. It is characterized by rhythmic breathing, a tense voice, and syllabic sounds being more important than lyrics. These technical features helped the shaman achieve a trance state. Although the tongue drum is a modern musical instrument, is perfectly suitable for any tribal songs. Attention: Songs have been transposed for a DIATONIC range. Some melodies might be changed and simplified. If your drum has flat keys, it is recommended that you use classic sheet music for piano. We write the note numbers above the notes because our sheet music is aimed at absolute beginners. Just follow numbers and enjoy. Here you can find traditional songs, handed down from generation to generation: ceremonial (such as corn grinding or moccasin game songs) or healing songs. Also, we add a QR code to most songs. Follow the link and find this song on YouTube, so that you can listen to the rhythm before beginning to play. For which tongue drum are these songs suitable? Each tongue drum is very different and it is impossible to accommodate songs for all kinds of tongue drums in one book. The songs which have been collected in this book can be played on most drum models. If you have less than 1 octave of keys on your drum, you may need to skip some songs. However, if your drum has many sharp notes, you will need a book that contains chromatic songs. Here, we have collected only simplified diatonic melodies. Contents Ani Couni. Arapaho Song.

Book Synopsis The SAGE Encyclopedia of Filipina/x/o American Studies by : Kevin Leo Yabut Nadal

This book was released on 2022-11-03 with total page 2037 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Filipino Americans are one of the three largest Asian American groups in the United States and the second largest immigrant population in the country. Yet within the field of Asian American Studies, Filipino American history and culture have received comparatively less attention than have other ethnic groups. Over the past twenty years, however, Filipino American scholars across various disciplines have published numerous books and research articles, as a way of addressing their unique concerns and experiences as an ethnic group. The SAGE Encyclopedia of Filipina/x/o American Studies, the first on the topic of Filipino American Studies, offers a comprehensive survey of an emerging field, focusing on the Filipino diaspora in the United States as well as highlighting issues facing immigrant groups in general. It covers a broad range of topics and disciplines including activism and education, arts and humanities, health, history and historical figures, immigration, psychology, regional trends, and sociology and social issues.
Book Synopsis Keyboard for Adult Beginners. Traditional Native American Songs by : Helen Winter
Download or read book Keyboard for Adult Beginners. Traditional Native American Songs written by Helen Winter and published by Helen Winter. This book was released on with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most difficult thing about playing Native American songs is their irregular rhythms. It might change several times during a song because rhythm is generally more important than melody. Songs for American tribes are traditionally a method of communicating with their ancestors and supernatural powers. Music is used to help grow a harvest, bring rain, bring victory in battle or cure the sick. Music is seldom performed for its own sake and as a rule, the tribes tried to repeat sounds that were heard in nature (whispering winds, rain sounds, etc). That is why the rhythm prevailed and words were not so important. Some songs such as ceremonial or medicinal ones often were inspired by dreams. Here you can find traditional songs, handed down from generation to generation These traditional American folk songs are possible to play on the piano, Melodica, glockenspiel, xylophone, or synthesizer keyboard, but remember that traditional American music never involved or included a piano or other keyboard instrument. We added a QR code to each song. Follow the link and listen to the rhythm before beginning to play. Table of Contents 1. Ani Couni. Arapaho Song. (Version 1) 2. Ani Couni. Arapaho Song.

Book Synopsis Bodily Exchanges, Bioethics and Border Crossing by : Erik Malmqvist
Download or read book Bodily Exchanges, Bioethics and Border Crossing written by Erik Malmqvist and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medical therapy, research and technology enable us to make our bodies, or parts of them, available to others in an increasing number of ways. This is the case in organ, tissue, egg and sperm donation as well as in surrogate motherhood and clinical research. Bringing together leading scholars working on the ethical, social and cultural aspects of such bodily exchanges, this cutting-edge book develops new ways of understanding them. Bodily Exchanges, Bioethics and Border Crossing both probes the established giving and selling frameworks for conceptualising bodily exchanges in medicine, and seeks to develop and examine another, less familiar framework: that of sharing. A framework of sharing can capture practices that involve giving up and giving away part of one’s body, such as organ and tissue donation, and practices that do not, such as surrogacy and research participation. Sharing also recognizes the multiple relationalities that these exchanges can involve and invites inquiry into the context in which they occur. In addition, the book explores the multiple forms of border crossing that bodily exchanges in medicine involve, from the physical boundaries of the body to relational borders – as can happen in surrogacy – to national borders and the range of ethical issues that these various border-crossings can give rise to. Engaging with anthropology, sociology, philosophy, and feminist and postcolonical perspectives, this is an original and timely contribution to contemporary bioethics in a time of increasing globalization. It will be of use to students and researchers from a range of humanities and social science backgrounds as well as medical and other healthcare professionals with an interest in bioethics.
Book Synopsis The Politics of Emotional Shockwaves by : Ana Falcato
Download or read book The Politics of Emotional Shockwaves written by Ana Falcato and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-08 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interdisciplinary volume brings together specialists from different backgrounds to deliver expert views on the relationship between morality and emotion, putting a special emphasis on issues related to emotional shocks. One of the distinctive aspects of social existence today is our subjection to traumatic events on a global scale, and our subsequent embodiment of the emotional responses these events provoke. Covering various methodological angles, the contributors ensure careful and heterogeneous reflection on this delicate topic. With eleven original essays, the collection spans a wide variety of fields from philosophy and literary theory, to the visual arts, history, and psychology. The authors cover diverse themes, including philosophical approaches to political polarization; the impact of negative emotions such as anger on inter-relational balance; humour and politics; media and the idea of progress; photography and trauma discourse; democratic morality in modern Indian society; emotional olfactory experiences; phenomenological readings of spatial disorientation, and the significance of moral shocks. This timely volume offers crucial perspectives on contemporary questions relating to ethical behaviours, and the challenges of a globalized society on the verge of political, financial and emotional collapse.

Book Synopsis From Indra’s Net to Internet by : Daniel Veidlinger
Download or read book From Indra’s Net to Internet written by Daniel Veidlinger and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2018-08-31 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this sweeping and ambitious intellectual history, Daniel Veidlinger traces the affinity between Buddhist ideas and communications media back to the efflorescence of Buddhism in the Axial Age of the mid-first millennium BCE. He uses both communications theory and the idea of convergent evolution to show how Buddhism arose in the largely urban milieu of Axial Age northeastern India and spread rapidly along the transportation and trading nodes of the Silk Road, where it appealed to merchants and traders from a variety of backgrounds. Throughout, he compares early phases of Buddhism with contemporary developments in which rapid changes in patterns of social interaction were also experienced and brought about by large-scale urbanization and growth in communication and transportation. In both cases, such changes supported the expansive consciousness needed to allow Buddhism to germinate. Veidlinger argues that Buddhist ideas tend to fare well in certain media environments; through a careful analysis of communications used in these contexts, he finds persuasive parallels with modern advances in communications technology that amplify the conditions and effects found along ancient trade routes. From Indra’s Net to Internet incorporates historical research as well as data collected using computer-based analysis of user-generated web content to demonstrate that robust communication networks, which allow for relatively easy contact among a variety of people, support a de-centered understanding of the self, greater compassion for others, an appreciation of interdependence, a universal outlook, and a reduction in emphasis on the efficacy of ritual—all of which lie at the heart of the Buddha’s teachings. The book’s interdisciplinary approach should appeal to those interested in not only Buddhism, media studies and history, but also computer science, cognitive science, and cultural evolution.
