Mark Nash's "Screen Theory Culture" demonstrates the influence of
Screen magazine on structuralist and post-structuralist film
studies. More current articles make connections between this body
of work and the art of the contemporary moving image art work.
Based on interviews with pregnant women, this book provides a
multi-disciplinary empirical account of pregnant embodiment and how
it relates to wider sociological and feminist discourses about

How do rapid social and technological changes shape reproductive

postpartum body image.
"The Origins of Women's Higher Education in America "examines
female education in the United States from the early national
period through the formation of the institutions that are widely
recognized as the forerunners of the women's college movement.
Margaret A. Nash argues that in this period education was not as
strongly gendered as other historians have posited. The rising
rhetoric of human rights, Enlightenment thought, and evangelical
Christianity, in an age of dynamic economic change, helped build a
broad ideological base for the spread of female education.
Education was key to the project of class formation, and therefore,
Nash contends, class and race were more salient than gender in the
construction of educational institutions.

A weak economy prompts a young, newly married couple from the
Chicago suburbs to leave all that is familiar and stake out a new
life far from home. They settle in the northern climes of Minot,
North Dakota. Friendships, volatile weather, and unforeseen events
shape not only their future, but that of the people they meet along
the way. This is the story of three couples struggling to find the
meaning of life through humor, determination and overcoming
obstacles not always in their control. Exposing both fragility and
strength, the clues to their questions are found in the most
unexpected ways.
