courses). Cutting edge microbiology research for today's learners
Tortora, Funke, and Case's Microbiology, An Introduction brings a
21st-century lens to the #1 best-selling text on the market. Known
for its exceptionally clear presentation of complex topics, this
trusted text provides a careful balance of concepts and
applications, pedagogically superior art, and robust animations and
media via Mastering (TM) Microbiology. With the 13th Edition, new
Exploring the Microbiome boxes present updated research on the
microbiome and how microbes influence human health. Four new Big
Picture spreads cover vaccine-preventable diseases, the "hygiene
hypothesis," vertical transmission, and bioterrorism.
Glass slippers, a fairy godmother, a ball, a prince, an evil
stepfamily, and a poor girl known for sitting amongst the ashes:
incarnations of the Cinderella fairy tale have resonated throughout
the ages. Hidden between the lines of this fairy tale exists a
history of fantasy about agency, power, and empowerment. This book
examines twenty-first-century "Cinderella" adaptations that
envision the classic tale in the twenty-first century through the
lens of wokenesss by shifting rhetorical implications and
self-reflexively granting different possibilities for protagonists.
The contributors argue that the Cinderella archetype expands past
traditional takes on the passive princess. From Sex and the City to
Game of Thrones, from cyborg Cinderellas to Inglorious Basterds,
contributors explore gender-bending and feminist adaptations,
explorations of race and the body, and post-human and post-truth
rewritings. The collection posits that contemporary "Cinderella"
adaptations create a substantive cultural product that both inform
and reflect a contemporary social zeitgeist.
