Comrades - Brothers, Fathers, Heroes, Sons, Pals (Paperback, Trade P/bk): Stephen E. Ambrose Comrades - Brothers, Fathers, Heroes, Sons, Pals (Paperback, Trade P/bk)
Stephen E. Ambrose
R421 R342 Discovery Miles 3 420 Save R79 (19%) Ships in 10 - 15 working days

From the author of Undaunted Courage and D-Day comes this celebration of male friendship, taken both from the pages of history and from Ambrose's own life.

Acclaimed historian Stephen Ambrose begins his examination with a glance inward -- he starts this book with his brothers, his first and forever friends, and the shared experiences that join them for a lifetime, overcoming distance and misunderstandings. He writes of Dwight D. Eisenhower, who had a golden gift for friendship and who shared a perfect trust with his younger brother Milton in spite of their apparently unequal stations. With great feeling, Ambrose brings to life the relationships of the young soldiers of Easy Company who fought and died together from Normandy to Germany, and he describes with admiration three who fought in different armies on different sides in that war and became friends later. He recounts the friendships of Lewis and Clark and of Crazy Horse and He Dog, and he tells the story of the Custer brothers who died together at the Little Big Horn.

Comrades concludes with the author's moving recollection of his own friendship with his father. "He was my first and always most important friend. I didn't learn that until the end, when he taught me the most important thing, that the love of father-son-father-son is a continuum, just as love and friendship are expansive."

Sex Before Marriage (Hardcover): Eleanor Hamilton Sex Before Marriage (Hardcover)
Eleanor Hamilton
R2,569 Discovery Miles 25 690 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

In this book, originally published in Britain in 1971, and reissued here with a new preface, Eleanor Hamilton provides an enlightened and practical guide to the problems of sex and love for the increasing number of young men and women who wanted to enjoy a full and rich relationship before marriage, still frowned upon at the time. Following in the footsteps of pioneers like Eustace Chesser and Alfred Kinsey, Dr Hamilton presents facts and ideas in a warm, open-minded and sympathetic way. Simply and clearly, she explains the art and techniques of lovemaking (coital and non-coital), sexual development in childhood and adolescence, birth control, personal and emotional problems, how to handle accidental pregnancy and how to understand sexual difficulties and so-called deviations. This book is a re-issue originally published in 1969. The language used and views portrayed are a reflection of its era and no offence is meant by the Publishers to any reader by this re-publication.

The Dandy - Peacock or Enigma? (Hardcover, New): Nigel Rodgers The Dandy - Peacock or Enigma? (Hardcover, New)
Nigel Rodgers 1
R762 Discovery Miles 7 620 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The 'Dandy' is not just an elaborately, well-dressed man - nor is he an exclusively English phenomenon. He is something far more universal and intriguing. The author captures the lives of the Dandies - some were aristocratic but most were not. All, however, had the chutzpah and style to be a true Dandy. Their stories are told against a backdrop of revolutions and war in the world's great cities (London, Paris, New York, Hollywood, Moscow, Berlin), and amid financial and sexual scandals. All too often Dandies lived in luxury but died in penury. The Dandy's place in history is assured. Not because Dandies have made any major contributions to politics, economics or warfare, but because they were, and continue to be, figures of huge but subtle significance - baffling, enigmatic, iconic.

A respected leader in men's work shares a practical guide to redefine, heal, and re-embrace masculinity in our world. Men today face a crisis of identity. While we can see how the old paradigm of patriarchal dominance needs to go, is the solution really to deconstruct the very idea of masculinity out of existence? No--that's not the answer. As John Wineland writes, "We need a generation of conscious men who can provide guidance and direction in their communities, just as we need to support and encourage women to do the same." With From the Core, Wineland sets out a clear roadmap for men who want to live, love, and lead from the most profound places within them. The techniques in From the Core will help you adapt to a changing world while staying in touch with your masculine essence. If you're willing to spend at least 30 minutes a day in practice, you can transform your entire approach to love, success, and relationships. Here you'll learn how to: - Get strong--go beyond building your muscles to strengthening your nervous system, awareness, and ability to conduct energy - Become masterful in the art of sexual and energetic polarity - Align with the Sacred Feminine--operate in harmony and trust with the feminine forces within you and in others - Take responsibility for the life you've created, the legacy of manhood, and your personal role in healing our damaged world - Prioritize depth over comfort--becoming highly attuned to the truth of your heart and the power of your intention - Use the Eleven Precepts of Conscious Warriorhood as your life's compass "Despite all of the flak men have received," writes Wineland, "I see brothers every day who are hungrier than ever to step into their lives more powerfully, nobly honor and protect their feminine partners, and be a source of healing and liberation in their communities." From the Core is an inspirational guide and a call to action for men who are ready to embody conscious awareness, unflinching accountability, and true leadership.

In the last three decades, the human body has gained increasing prominence in contemporary political debates, and it has become a central topic of modern social sciences and humanities. Modern technologies - such as organ transplants, stem-cell research, nanotechnology, cosmetic surgery and cryonics - have changed how we think about the body. In this collection of thirty original essays by leading figures in the field, these issues are explored across a number of theoretical and disciplinary perspectives, including pragmatism, feminism, queer theory, post-modernism, post-humanism, cultural sociology, philosophy and anthropology. A wide range of case studies, which include cosmetics, diet, organ transplants, racial bodies, masculinity and sexuality, eating disorders, religion and the sacred body, and disability, are used to appraise these different perspectives. In addition, this Handbook explores various epistemological approaches to the basic question: what is a body? It also offers a strongly themed range of chapters on empirical topics that are organized around religion, medicine, gender, technology and consumption. It also contributes to the debate over the globalization of the body: how have military technology, modern medicine, sport and consumption led to this contemporary obsession with matters corporeal? The Handbook's clear, direct style will appeal to a wide undergraduate audience in the social sciences, particularly for those studying medical sociology, gender studies, sports studies, disability studies, social gerontology, or the sociology of religion. It will serve to consolidate the new field of body studies.

Charles Berg (1892-1957) trained medically at St Thomas's Hospital, but before he could qualify the First World War broke out. He served in several medical positions throughout the war, having been released to obtain his medical qualification. After the war he started his career in general practice, but more interested in the causation of illness, went on to train firstly as a psychiatrist, then as a psychoanalyst, working at the Tavistock Clinic for seventeen years. During his time there under the founder Crichton-Miller he learnt to treat patients from the point of view of psychotherapy and eventually opened his own psychiatric and analytical practice. Out of print for many years, the Collected Works of Charles Berg is a great opportunity to revisit some of his finest works including his 'Sort of Autobiography'. This set will be a useful resource for those interested in the history of psychology, psychiatry, psychoanalysis, queer studies and beyond.

Masculinities (Paperback, 2nd Edition): Raewyn W Connell Masculinities (Paperback, 2nd Edition)
Raewyn W Connell
R617 Discovery Miles 6 170 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This is an exciting new edition of R.W. Connella s ground--breaking text, which has become a classic work on the nature and construction of masculine identity. Connell argues that there is not one masculinity, but many different masculinities, each associated with different positions of power. In a world gender order that continues to privilege men over women, but also raises difficult issues for men and boys, his account is more pertinent than ever before. In a substantial new introduction and conclusion, Connell discusses the development of masculinity studies in the ten years since the booka s initial publication. He explores global gender relations, new theories, and practical uses of mascunlinity research. Looking to the future, his new concluding chapter addresses the politics of masculinities, and the implications of masculinity research for understanding current world issues. Against the backdrop of an increasingly divided world, dominated by neo--conservative politics, Connella s account highlights a series of compelling questions about the future of human society. This second edition of Connella s classic book will be essential reading for students taking courses on masculinities and gender studies, and will be of interest to students and scholars across the humanities and social sciences.

Malestrom - How Jesus Dismantles Patriarchy and Redefines Manhood (Paperback): Carolyn Custis James Malestrom - How Jesus Dismantles Patriarchy and Redefines Manhood (Paperback)
Carolyn Custis James; Foreword by Kristin Kobes DuMez
R295 Discovery Miles 2 950 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Updated and expanded-with a new foreword by Kristin Kobes Du Mez, author of Jesus and John Wayne-Malestrom provides a redemptive vision of biblical manhood and a way through the treacherous seas of patriarchy. Like the danger of a maelstrom in the open seas, a relentless force threatens our culture, swirling with hidden currents that distorts God's image of personhood. This book reveals how the malestrom is one of the Enemy's single most successful strategies. Its victories are flashed before us every day in the headlines as men lose sight of who God created them to be. It has consumed the evangelical church that stoops to offering toxic "manly" solutions to the wrongs it perceives in society and distracts from the rich potential God has entrusted to his sons. Digging deeply into the stories of men in the Bible who subverted cultural hierarchies, Carolyn Custis James shows us how countercultural God's design for men really is. Through personal story, biblical commentary, and cultural analysis, Custis James: Makes a strong case for the unbiblical nature of patriarchy. Illuminates the sociology of marginalization and cultural gender roles. Takes a close biblical look at Jesus and what his character and humanity means to the men of the church today. Malestrom offers what we so desperately need-a biblical, global, timeless vision of godly personhood that is big enough to encompass the diversity of men's lives and strong enough to withstand the crises they face. "It is one thing to critique the abuses of a domineering masculinity and lament the religious and societal consequences, but Carolyn Custis James takes the next crucial step and offers us a better path forward. For those asking, "What now?" Malestrom serves as a sure-footed guide." -Kristin Kobes Du Mez

The Changing Faces of Families - Diverse family forms in various national policy contexts (Paperback): Marina Adler, Karl Lenz The Changing Faces of Families - Diverse family forms in various national policy contexts (Paperback)
Marina Adler, Karl Lenz
R1,129 Discovery Miles 11 290 Ships in 9 - 15 working days

With a focus on nine different national contexts, this book explores contemporary family diversity. With attention to the different welfare states and cultures of care in each setting, it problematises the pre-eminence of research and policy centred on heteronormative families, showing the extent to which family diversity exists cross-nationally in relation to different gendered and "family-friendly" policies. Considering variations in family forms, including differences in the number and marital status of parents, their gender, sexual orientation and biological relationship to the children (adoption), multi-cultural families, and families created by technological assistance or surrogacy, it presents demographic information, alongside quantitative and qualitative research, across a number of advanced countries. A contribution to our understanding of the diversity of family forms, how diversity is lived in families, and what family diversity means in various international policy contexts The Changing Faces of Families will appeal to scholars with interests in the sociology of the family.

In The Christian Man, Patrick Morley--bestselling author of The Man in the Mirror--offers men practical ways to deal with life's problems and become the men of God they aspire to be. No man fails on purpose. Quite the opposite. When our feet hit the floor every morning, we're looking for a win. But these are turbulent times to be a man. In gathering material for this book, Morley interviewed many men. Their input was powerful. And transparent. They agreed that it's increasingly difficult to juggle all their responsibilities as men, husbands, fathers, friends, workers, churchmen, and citizens. No one understands what you're going through more than men's expert Patrick Morley, author of the landmark bestseller The Man in the Mirror, which has sold over 4 million copies. And now, Morley has put together a game plan so you can get that win you're looking for. The Christian Man is filled with powerful stories and refreshingly practical answers to questions like: How can I lead a more balanced life? How can I have a deeper walk with God? What makes a great husband? How can I become a dad who makes a difference? How should I think about my work? What's the right way to deal with lust? By the end of this must-read book, you will know how to intentionally release the power of God on the issues that matter most to you. You'll be able to walk with confidence in the one identity that matters most: The Christian Man.
