This book is the first its kind to offer an innovative examination
of the intersecting influences, contexts, and challenges within the
field of children's dark tourism. It also outlines novel
conceptualizations and methods for scholarship in this overlooked
field. Presently, tourism research, and in dark tourism
specifically, relies primarily on adult-centered theories and data
collection methods. However, these approaches are inadequate for
understanding and developing children's experiences and
perspectives. This book seeks to inform and inspire research on
children's experiences of dark tourism. Designed to appeal to
students and scholars, it brings together insights from leading
experts. The book focuses on five themes, to explore the conceptual
and historic origins of children's dark tourism, developmental
contexts, child perspectives, specific contexts relevant to
children's encounters, and methodological approaches. This book is
aimed at an international array of scholars and students with
inherent research interests in the contemporary commodification of
death and 'difficult heritage' within the visitor economy. Thus,
the book will provide a multi-disciplinary scope within the fields
of history, heritage studies, childhood studies, psychology,
education, sociology, human geography, and tourism studies. The
volume is primarily intended for undergraduate and postgraduate
study, as well as scholars and tourism professionals.
When the possibility of wiretapping first became known to Americans
they were outraged. Now, in our post 9/11 world, it's accepted that
corporations are vested with human rights, and government agencies
and corporations use computers to monitor our private lives. David
H. Price pulls back the curtain to reveal how the FBI and other
government agencies have always functioned as the secret police of
American capitalism up to today, where they luxuriate in a
near-limitless NSA surveillance of all. Price looks through a
roster of campaigns by law enforcement, intelligence agencies and
corporations to understand how we got here. Starting with J. Edgar
Hoover and the early FBI's alignment with business, his access to
15,000 pages of never-before-seen FBI files shines a light on the
surveillance of Edward Said, Andre Gunder Frank and Alexander
Cockburn, Native American communists and progressive factory
owners. Price uncovers patterns of FBI monitoring and harassing of
activists and public figures, providing the vital means for us to
understanding how these new frightening surveillance operations are
weaponised by powerful governmental agencies that remain largely
shrouded in secrecy.
Originally published in 1986. This book's focus is on English
secondary schooling in the late 19th and 20th Centuries, during
which the definition of a general 'secondary' education was itself
negotiated and consolidated before the development of secondary
modern and then comprehensive schools. In each chapter, a
specialist contributor considers the changing ideology, shape and
status of one of the seven traditional academic subjects, namely
Classics, Modern Languages, English, History, Geography,
Mathematics and Science. These seven school subjects have dominated
the academic school curriculum since the nineteenth century and
continue to exert a powerful influence upon the contemporary school
curriculum today despite the emergence of various rivals and the
growing status of 'practical' subjects.

A variety of theoretical approaches to person-environment
psychology has been developed over the years, representing a rich
range of intellectual perspectives. This second edition links the
past and present and looks toward the future in reviewing new
directions and perspectives in person-environment psychology.
Stated differently, the main thrust of this volume is to present
contemporary models and perspectives that make some sensible
predictions concerning the individual and the environment using the
person-environment relationship. Within a person-environment
framework, these models and perspectives are concerned with how
people tend to influence environments and how environments
reciprocally tend to influence people. Thus, this second edition
presents new directions in person-environment psychology and the
implications for theory, research, and application.
In Cold War Anthropology, David H. Price offers a provocative
account of the profound influence that the American security state
has had on the field of anthropology since the Second World War.
Using a wealth of information unearthed in CIA, FBI, and military
records, he maps out the intricate connections between academia and
the intelligence community and the strategic use of anthropological
research to further the goals of the American military complex. The
rise of area studies programs, funded both openly and covertly by
government agencies, encouraged anthropologists to produce work
that had intellectual value within the field while also shaping
global counterinsurgency and development programs that furthered
America's Cold War objectives. Ultimately, the moral issues raised
by these activities prompted the American Anthropological
Association to establish its first ethics code. Price concludes by
comparing Cold War-era anthropology to the anthropological
expertise deployed by the military in the post-9/11 era.
Disorders of the hair can cause distress for patients and
physicians need to be aware of the factors involved before they
attempt to manage and treat the problem. This text is aimed at
those involved in this area, covering problems such as alopecia,
hirsutism, and abnormalities caused by cosmetics.
The purpose of this volume is to describe the impact of the
increased demand for flexibility on employees and its impact on
their individual work life trajectories and health. The volume
offers concrete examples of interventions aimed to find innovative
ways of sustainable work careers for today's workers. We focus on
the school to work transition, job insecurity, job loss and
re-employment and retirement. The interventions described offer
strategies for implementing support in employment contracts,
increasing preparedness of individual employees with public
education programs or developing work arrangements and support
systems in work organizations.

During the early Cold War, the Central Intelligence Agency created
dozens of funding fronts to support work that aligned with CIA
goals, from clandestine operations and research to liberal
anticommunist programs. While investigative journalists and
congressional inquiries exposed many of these fronts, little is
known about their daily internal workings. With a specific focus on
the 1950s and 1960s Asia Foundation, Cold War Deceptions provides a
rare view into the bureaucratic functioning of a covert operation
in which most employees did not know they were working for the CIA.
Drawing on the foundation’s extensive surviving archival records
and thousands of pages of declassified CIA documents, David H.
Price examines how the foundation, secretly created and funded by
the CIA, tried to shape Asian political, economic, intellectual,
and cultural developments during the early years of the Cold War.
Uncovering how unwitting scholars were used to support pro-American
and anticommunist positions, Price considers how political forces
shaped disciplinary knowledge and how these past events connect to
the present.
