'This time show us like we really are ' This mandate from Do-a Clara, homemaker-market merchant in the community of TepoztlOn, makes explicit the dimensions of this concertedly empirical, multidisciplinary study of women's ways of using a neoliberal development model that systematically disadvantages them to create value and values. Members of one of the first New World populations to have their labor globally feminized, into the twenty-first century, Tepoztecas have continuously contrived to adjust organizationally to production-reproduction systems that use gender inequalities to be global. The many faceted work experiences and broad academic interests of the anthropologist/author uniquely equip her to demystify and give a history to women's work during the period of 1990 to 2000, a time of great transformation for Tepoztecas on the frontlines of massive economic, social, and political challenges for stakeholders. The 'strange reciprocity' disaggregated as worksite exchanges of valued things is women's ways of turning to their advantage the very ideologies and technologies that simultaneously make them central to Free Market capitalism while constraining their access to resources that can be exchanged at prices set by and for awesomely powerful interests_or not. Nevertheless, Strange Reciprocity qualitatively and quantitatively confirms that as Tepoztecas construct small economies against the grain of what take over agendas seem to have in mind for them, they are structurally adjusting the big economies of the winners.

The Swedish Cavalier - A Novel (Paperback): Leo Perutz The Swedish Cavalier - A Novel (Paperback)
Leo Perutz; Translated by John Brownjohn
R377 Discovery Miles 3 770 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

A thief and a nobleman, both down on their luck, cross paths on a bitter winter's day in 1701. One, known locally as "The Fowl-Filcher," is fleeing the gallows; the other, the callow Christian von Tornefeld, has escaped execution to fight for his Swedish king. Neither will reach his destination. Sent with a message to secure aid for von Tornefeld, the thief falls in love with his companion's secret fiancee. He resolves to win her love for himself, and through a clever stratagem, exchanges his fate for the other man's. Risking everything to attain the woman and station of his dreams, he becomes the Swedish cavalier, staying one step ahead of exposure. Later, he sacrifices everything so that is daughter won't learn of his secret past.
In this book he considered is masterpiece, Leo Perutz has created a picaresque world of barons and brigands, swashbuckling dragoons and spurned lovers, gentleman farmers and masked robbers, and lucky parchments, magic spells, and mystical visions. Part adventure, part historical novel of war-ravaged Europe, "The Sweddish Cavalier" is also a moral tale of deceit, betrayal, and redemption.

Since the beginning of the twentieth century, the world's population has increased threefold. The "demographic revolution" has not only changed the size of the population; it is radically transforming its age structure and its spatial distribution, with attendant problems and contradictions. Despite measurable advances in human welfare, such as increased longevity, more than one billion people - about one third of the total population of the Third World - live in poverty, according to a recent World Bank report. Sharply diverging rates of population growth have been accompanied by increasing disparities in income and quality of life across nations. These papers examine the relationship between physical and human resources and population within this context of mass poverty, historically unprecedented population growth, and environmental deterioration. Attention focused on those resources most critical for human well-being, including soil, water, and energy, on the one hand, and education, social organization and economic management, on the other. The discussion is framed by a broad supervision into six parts, examining demographic history and global population prospects; the relationships between population and physical, biological, and human resources; human health; and human settlements. Introductory statements, including an address by Pope John Paul II, and concluding remarks draw out the common threads and point the way towards future action and research. This book originated in a study week organized by the Pontifical Academy of Sciences to bring the best available scientific evidence to bear on this complex and still inadequately explored topic. The study week brought together experts in demography and from the physical, biological, political, economic, anthropological, religious, cultural, and health sciences, to investigate past experience and observed trends. Through this multidisciplinary analysis, a reference base was assembled that is factual, amply documented, and as scientifically indisputable as possible.

Mindworks - An Introduction to NLP (Paperback): Anne Linden, Kathrin Perutz Mindworks - An Introduction to NLP (Paperback)

Using the amazingly effective tools of Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), Mindworks shows you how to unlock the resources, abilities and creativity that you already have in order to accomplish whatever you want to do and take control of your life. Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), a group of psychological techniques developed in the early 1970s, has been a huge influence on today's motivational writers. As its name suggests, NLP is based on the idea that the human mind is a sort of computer; our verbal and body languages are the programming that allows us to change our thoughts and to influence other people. Anne Linden, The First Lady of NLP, was a witness and participant in the creation of NLP. She was a member of the very first certification training group, the founders of NLP John Grinder and Richard Bandler offered. Previously available in hardback (ISBN 0836221680), Mindworks shows you how to change your mind, reprogram your thoughts, gain control of your fears and fulfil your desires and potential and is still one of the best introductions to NLP available.

Aus Vorlesungen und arztlichen Fortbildungskursen entstan den, soil dieses Biichlein dem praktizierenden Arzt die Moglichkeit geben, sich iiber Klinik, Diagnose und Therapie der Harnrohren gonorrhoe des Mannes zu informieren. Es wurden die wichtigsten neueren Errungenschaften der Forschung auf diesem Gebiete mit den alten, aus jahrzehntelangen Beobachtungen gewonnenen Re sultaten wiedergegeben. Wiederholung aItbekannter Tatsachen war daher unvermeidlich. Andererseits muBten gelegentlich theoretische Erorterungen gemacht werden, sofern sie fiir das Verstandnis von Notwendigkeit waren. lch habe die Ergebnisse oft tabellarisch zusammengestellt, da die schematische Darstellung wesentlich zur Erfassung des Gesagten beitragt. Besonderer Wert wurde auf die Differentialdiagnose gelegt, wobei Exkursionen auf dem Gebiete der Urologie unvermeidlich waren. Denjenigen, die sich eingehender mit dieser Materie befassen wollen, sei das ausgezeichnete Buch von Buschke und Langer (Lehrbuch der Gonorrhoe, Julius Springer, Berlin 1926) empfohlen. Beziiglich ausfiihrlicher Darstellung der Therapie verweise ich auf meine Monographie "Die medikamentOse Behandlung der Harnrohrengonorrhoe des Mannes und ihre pharma kologischen Grundlagen" (Urban & Schwarzenberg, Wien und Berlin, 1925).

1930. The Master of the Day of Judgment is about a drug, created in Florence in the 16th century, that makes people see the Master (God). The downside is that they also see the Day of Judgment and all the demons of Hell, which leads them to believe that they are being attacked by the demons of Hell and then they commit suicide. The novel, set in Vienna in 1909, is structured like a murder mystery, with the identity of the victim only being revealed near the end. A Kirkus review said, The identity of the Master provides a solution that, like that of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, is more disturbing than the mystery itself.
