The Emerging Role of Geomedia in the Environmental Humanities,
edited by Mark Terry and Michael Hewson, provides the latest
scholarship on the various methods and approaches being used by
environmental humanists to incorporate geomedia into their research
and analyses. Chapters in the book examine such applications as
geographic information systems, global positioning systems, geo-doc
filmmaking, and related geo-locative systems all being used as new
technologies of research and analysis in investigations in the
environmental humanities. The contributors also explore how these
new methodologies impact the production of knowledge in this field
of study as well as promote the impact of First Nation people
perspectives.
Key features: High quality full color photographs and descriptive
texts on the location and removal of the organs from the mouse
Instructive methods and clear visuals for trimming and orienting
the organs for paraffin histology to obtain the best possible
sections for analysis Full color photomicrographs of the resulting
section for each organ stained with hematoxylin and eosin
demonstrating important features and landmarks for the histologist
to ensure the optimal area for analysis is achieved All in one,
easy to use guide organized by individual organs of the laboratory
mouse Spiralbound for easy reference in the lab This "one-stop"
guide offers an essential resource for any academic, research or
development operation where mouse necropsy and/or histology are
performed. Connecting the reader 'from the mouse to the
microscope', it provides a detailed guide for locating, trimming,
orientating and embedding of the most frequently investigated
tissues collected in the laboratory mouse. It shows where the
organs reside in the mouse, how to trim and embed them as well as
the resulting optimal sections. This guide brings together the
wealth of scattered information into one high-quality text, the
emphasis is on providing knowledge that will help histologists and
scientists get better results in any downstream assays where ideal
sections are needed.
"It amazes me that after all these years and countless books, the
scope of subject matter on The Beatles is so amazingly large that
writers always find a new angle. This book does that in a very
unique and clever way. It's a must for every Beatles fan." -Billy
J. Kramer "...It's a magical mystery tour through the band's life
and times." -Yahoo Entertainment The It-List "Part biography and
part map to the stars, The Beatles: Fab Four Cities is your "Ticket
to Ride" and walk in the footsteps of John, Paul, George and Ringo.
It's the next best thing to actually driving their car..."-Nina
Violi, Capitol File. and Gotham magazine "While the book can be
used as a handy tour guide filled with addresses, maps and photos,
it also makes for great reading." -Steve Matteo, The Vinyl District
"But now comes a "magic carpet volume" for Beatles fans that blends
travel guide with historical reference in an expanded study of The
Beatles' homes, schools, pubs, venues, and important historic
sites..." -Jude Southerland Kessler, Culture Sonar John Lennon
said: "We were born in Liverpool, but we grew up in Hamburg." To
paraphrase Lennon, we could say that: "The Beatles were born in
Liverpool, grew up in Hamburg, reached maturity in London, and
immortality in New York." Four cities. Four stars. The Fab Four -
the Beatles - are revered the world over, but it is in these urban
centres that their legacy shines brightest. Liverpool: where the
band graduated from church halls, leaving their initial line-up as
'The Quarrymen' far behind. Hamburg: where their raucous stage act
was honed; where arrests earned them a more notorious celebrity
reputation, but they became a true emblem of rock 'n' roll. London:
where The Beatles produced Sgt Pepper, and home to the iconic album
cover for Abbey Road. And New York: the city that became John
Lennon's home, where their appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show
announced them to 73 million Americans. The Beatles: Fab Four
Cities invites the reader on a cosmopolitan trek across continents,
tracing the Beatles' rise to fame from one metropolis to the next.
Flush with timelines, stories, trivia, the numerous links and
connections between the cities and both pop cultural and local
history, this is a travel guide like no other.
As the first woman to win two Best Documentary Oscars and the
recipient of numerous lifetime achievement awards, Barbara Kopple
deserves scholarly attention. Two of her early documentaries,
Harlan County USA and American Dream, not only won Academy Awards
but are foundational within the study of documentary as a whole. In
ReFocus: The Films of Barbara Kopple, a range of international
scholars trace Kopple's career to date, analysing her contributions
in the contexts of funding, style, production and reception, and
examining her films' interrogations of social class using the
lenses of gender, sexuality and race. In a shifting digital media
landscape, Kopple's critical reputation is also assessed, alongside
her enduring influence on contemporary filmmakers.
