Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
Self and Society is a clearly written, up-to-date, and
authoritative introduction to the symbolic interactionist
perspective in social psychology and in sociology as a whole.
Filled with examples, this book has been used not only in the
classroom, but also cited in literature as an authoritative source.
Self and Society is not a distillation of textbook knowledge, but
rather, a thoughtful, well-organized presentation that makes its
own contribution to the advancement of symbolic interactionism.
First published in 1980, More Bad News is the Second Volume in
the research findings of the Glasgow University Media Group. It
develops the analytic findings and methods of the first volume Bad
News through a series of Case Studies of Television News Coverage,
and argues that much of what passes as balanced and factual news
reporting is produced from a highly partial viewpoint.
Focusing on the British economy in crisis, and its thematic
linkage with the Social Contract during the first four months of
1975, the book deals with three main levels of activity: the story,
the language and the visuals. As the book unpacks each level of
routine news coverage a picture emerges which has the surface
appearance of neutrality and balance but is in fact highly partial
and restricted
It is a commonly held belief that television news in Britain, on
whatever channel, is more objective, more trustworthy, more neutral
than press reporting. The illusion is exploded in this
controversial study by the Glasgow University Media Group,
originally published in 1976.
The authors undertook an exhaustive monitoring of all television
broadcasts over 6 months, from January to June 1975, with
particular focus upon industrial news broadcasts, the TUC, strikes
and industrial action, business and economic affairs.
Their analysis showed how television news favours certain
individuals by giving them more time and status. But their findings
did not merely deny the neutrality of the news, they gave a new
insight into the picture of industrial society that TV news
constructs.

conducted by Elais Neau and other Angelic clerks for the society

'... the universal poet, servant of the medium, renewer of the
forms, discoverer of the nugget of harmony in the language of
ourselves.' Seamus Heaney 'He brings to Irish poetry an invaluable
chronicle of mixed allegiances and lost worlds of the ambiguities
of the colony and the defeats of victory. No one else has quite had
his themes; no one else has quite ventured on his enquiries.' Eavan
Boland Edited, with a new introduction, by acclaimed poets Michael
Longley and Frank Ormsby, Selected Poems is a testament to John
Hewitt's remarkable literary legacy, and a celebration of a unique,
compelling and still urgent voice in 20th century Irish poetry.
