The Exercising Female: Science and Its Application is the first
book to provide students, researchers, and professionals with an
evidence-based reference on the exceptional scientific issues
associated with female participation in sport and exercise. Based
on the latest research, and treating women as a unique population,
the book seeks to critically evaluate current debates, present the
science underpinning female sport and exercise performance, and
inform applied practice for the exercising female. Featuring
contributions from leading scientists from around the world, and
adopting a multidisciplinary approach-from exercise physiology,
endocrinology, and biochemistry to psychology, biomechanics, and
sociology-the book includes chapters on topics such as: Exercise
and the menstrual cycle, contraception, pregnancy, motherhood, and
menopause. Body image, exercise dependency, the psychology of
sports performance, and homophobia in female sport. The Female
Athlete Triad, bone health, musculoskeletal injury, and breast
biomechanics. Nutritional requirements for the exercising female,
immune function and exercise, and cardiovascular health. Filling a
considerable gap in book literature around the science of female
sport and exercise, this is crucial reading for any student
studying female sport and exercise science, researchers of female
sport, and any coach, sport scientist, strength and conditioning
coach, sport psychologist, physician, or physiotherapist working
with female athletes.

Throughout his career, French philosopher Pierre Bourdieu sought to
interrogate what he described as the 'social unconscious', the
means by which power is held and transmitted across generations.
Bourdieu's work has been hugely influential in disciplines across
the social sciences and humanities for decades, yet Schirato and
Roberts argue that few scholars are using his work to its full
potential. Bourdieu's work is so wide-ranging that commentary tends
to focus on specific theoretical concepts he developed or his books
on particular fields of inquiry. However he continued to develop
these concepts in his work across his whole career, and much of the
richness of his thinking is lost if this isn't taken into account.
Drawing on recently released lectures, Schirato and Roberts offer a
systematic account of Bourdieu's full body of work, from his early
research in Algiers to his last lectures in Paris. They show how
Bourdieu continued to develop his concepts of habitus, field,
capital, power and socio-cultural reproduction well into his later
years. They also offer a nuanced reading of Bourdieu's thinking
about education, class, language, knowledge and culture beyond the
individual books Bourdieu published on these topics. This critical
introduction to Bourdieu is essential reading for all Bourdieu
scholars, and for researchers and thinkers using Bourdieu's work in
their own social and cultural analysis. 'A terrific book, which
sets out a comprehensive overview of Bourdieu's oeuvre in a way
that no other text I know has done' - Professor John Frow,
University of Sydney
A magnificently illustrated showcase of the work of 300 women
photographers from all over the world, from the invention of the
medium to the dawn of the 21st century. As in many fields of art
history, the work of women photographers has often been overlooked,
and few of their names are now widely recognized. However, women
were closely involved in all major photography movements of the
19th and 20th centuries, and have used the camera as an
extraordinary tool for emancipation and experimentation. These are
artists who never stopped documenting, questioning and transforming
the world, breaking down social boundaries, challenging gender
roles and expressing their imagination and sexuality. To capture
the diversity of this global body of work, Luce Lebart and Marie
Robert have invited 160 international women writers to contribute
to this volume, which is a bold and beautifully illustrated
manifesto as well as an invaluable work of reference.

INTERNET MARKETING provides comprehensive coverage of the rapidly
changing field of Internet marketing that is timely and relevant.
It relies on extant marketing theory where appropriate and
introduces many conceptual frameworks to structure student
understanding of Internet marketing issues. Above all, it works on
the premise that the Internet--whether used as a medium of
communication or as a channel of distribution--is only one
component of the contemporary marketer's arsenal.
The writer Mary Roberts (1788-1864) developed an interest in
natural history while growing up in the Gloucestershire
countryside. This work of observations on wildlife, plants and the
weather, though written while she was living in the village of
Sheepscombe, near Painswick, was not published until 1831, some
time after she had moved to London with her widowed mother and was
a published author. Each chapter is devoted to a month of the year,
and Roberts' acute observation of nature is enhanced by her
considerable knowledge: she cites Withering and Cuvier (both also
reissued in the Cambridge Library Collection) as her reference
sources for plants and animals respectively. Her motive is 'a
sincere desire to interest the dwellers among rural scenes in the
... natural objects that surround them', and there is plenty to
interest the modern reader in this charming account of the ecology
of a remote rural hamlet.
Harness the power of ideas to overcome the hurdles of daily life, with advice from the greatest Western philosophers.
This international bestseller will introduce you to twelve thinkers who can help you to keep it together, even when everything in your life seems to be falling apart. You'll get advice from Epicurus about how to disconnect from digital media, Aristotle's help with curing hangovers, Nietzsche's take on getting in shape, John Stuart Mill's tips for dealing with nightmare social occasions, and many other classic insights to help you navigate life today.
This is philosophy for the real world: the key ideas that can guide you through life's difficult times, when you're angry, embarrassed, scared, or confused. It turns out that many of our contemporary crises are far from new. As teacher and philosophy professor Marie Robert shows, sometimes the best solutions to modern problems are timeless.

Rinehart's famous story mixes chilling suspense and romance with
good humor to produce an absorbing and entertaining mystery.
Middle-aged spinster Rachel Innes leases a country house for the
summer, and unaware that the old house hides a sinister secret, she
unwittingly sets off a chain of mysterious and murderous events.
"The Circular Staircase, " Mary Roberts Rinehart's classic tale
of murder and intrigue in a pre-World War I mansion, is evocative
yet strangely modern, a sort of CSI: Downton Abbey, with butlers
and maids sprinkled in amongst the bodies and evidence.
With elements of romance, white collar crime, class, race,
poverty, and privilege, it's a story told with such a deft hand
that it will keep you guessing right to the end, all the while
keeping you entertained with the trappings of the gilded age and a
hint of the supernatural.
Sporting its famous 1952 Mapback jacket with original cover
painting by Robert Stanley, this new edition from Blackbird Books
is a must for all mystery readers.
