Despite its safety and efficacy, emergency contraception (EC)
continues to spark political controversy worldwide. In this edited
volume, authors explore how emergency contraception has been
received, interpreted, and politicized, through the in-depth
examination of the journey of EC in 16 individual countries.
His resume of roles includes Macbeth, Cyrano de Bergerac, Ebenezer
Scrooge and Oedipus Rex. His career has encompassed theatre and
television in England, Canada and the United States. With a gift
for developing offbeat characters, Barry Morse has had a prolific
acting career, and the story of his life is a veritable history of
20th century theatre from the days before World War II through the
early 21st century. In this memoir, Morse traces his life and
career, including his years at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art,
his radio jobs with the BBC, his 60-year marriage to actress Sydney
Sturgess and their years together in the Court Players, his roles
on television shows (""The Fugitive"", ""Space: 1999""), and his
acquaintance with literary lights (George Bernard Shaw) and screen
stars (Robert Mitchum and Peter Cushing). Photographs from the
Morse family collection are included.

Arab Masculinities provides a groundbreaking analysis of Arab men's
lives in the precarious aftermath of the 2011 Arab uprisings. It
challenges received wisdoms and entrenched stereotypes about Arab
men, offering new understandings of rujula, or masculinity, across
the Middle East and North Africa. The 10 individual chapters of the
book foreground the voices and stories of Arab men as they face
economic precarity, forced displacement, and new challenges to
marriage and family life. Rich in ethnographic details, they
illuminate how men develop alternative strategies of affective
labor, how they attempt to care for themselves and their families
within their local moral worlds, and what it means to be a good
son, husband, father, and community member. Arab Masculinities
sheds light on the most private spaces of Arab men's
lives—offering stories that rarely enter the public realm. It is
a pioneering volume that reflects the urgent need for new
anthropological scholarship on men and masculinities in a changing
Middle East.
