Straus tap the expertise of social science scholars and researchers who address issues of corporal punishment, a subject that is now characterized as a key issue in child welfare. The contributors discuss corporal...

Hesiod's Cosmos
ISBN: 9780521823920 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This study reveals the unity of Hesiod's vision of the Cosmos by reading both his poems as two complementary halves of a whole embracing the human and divine cosmos. In the Theogony and Works and Days, Hesiod, roughly contemporary with Homer, does not describe the deeds of the heroes. He provides instead the earliest comprehensive account of the genesis of the Greek gods and the nature of human life that became the foundation for later Greek literature and philosophy.

From 1975 to 1979, while Cambodia was ruled by the brutal Communist Party of Kampuchea (Khmer Rouge) regime, torture, starvation, rape, and forced labor contributed to the death of at least a fifth of the country's population. Despite the severity of these abuses, civil war and international interference prevented investigation until 2004, when protracted negotiations between the Cambodian government and the United Nations resulted in the establishment of the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC), or Khmer...

Psychiatry and Philosophy
ISBN: 9783642879869 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 161 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The three essays reprinted in this book were first published in 1963 as individual chapters of a psychiatric treatise entitled Psychiatrie der Gegen wart (Psychiatry of the Present Day). The editors, W. H. GRUHLE (Bonn), R. JUNG (Freiburg/Br. ), W. MAYER-GROSS (Birmingham, England), M. MUL LER (Bern, Switzerland), had not planned an encyclopedic presentation; they did not intend to present a "handbook" which would be as complete as possible in details and bibliographic reference. Their intention was to "raze the walls" separating Continental and Anglo-Saxon psychiatries and to offer a...

Systemic Silencing: Activism, Memory, and Sexual Violence in Indonesia
ISBN: 9780299344207 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Recognizing and addressing enforced military prostitution in occupied Indonesia. The system of prostitution imposed and enforced by the Japanese military during its wartime occupation of several countries in East and Southeast Asia is today well-known and uniformly condemned. Transnational activist movements have sought to recognize and redress survivors of this World War II-era system, euphemistically known as "comfort women," for decades, with a major wave beginning in the 1990s. However, Indonesian survivors, and even the system's history in Indonesia to begin with, have largely been...

Milton Babbitt: Words about Music
ISBN: 9780299107949 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Many consider Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Milton Babbitt to be the preeminent figure in post-World War II American music. Beyond the extraordinary power of his music, he is also, as he says, somewhat known as a talker. In fact, he is renowned as an energetic teacher and inspired lecturer. In 1983 at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Babbitt presented a concise summary of his most essential musical insights in a series of lectures and seminars. These are gathered here, presenting for the first time in book form a comprehensive overview of the subjects that have formed the core of his...

Stravinsky's Late Music
ISBN: 9780521602884 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is the first to be devoted to the music of Stravinsky's last compositional period. In the early 1950s, Stravinsky's compositional style began to change and evolve with astonishing rapidity. He abandoned the musical neoclassicism to which he had been committed for the preceding three decades and, with the stimulus provided by his newly gained knowledge of the music of Schoenberg and Webern, launched himself on a remarkable voyage of compositional discovery. The book focuses on five historical, analytical, and interpretive issues: Stravinsky's relationship to his serial predecessors...

Twelve-Tone Music in America
ISBN: 9781107637313 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 326 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Most histories of American music have ignored the presence of twelve-tone music before and during the Second World War, and virtually all have ignored its presence after 1970, even though so many major composers continued (and continue) to compose serially. This book provides a comprehensive history of twelve-tone music in America, and compels a revised picture of American music since 1925 as a dynamic steady-state within which twelve-tone serialism has long been, and still remains, a persistent presence: a vigorous and unbroken tradition for more than eighty years. Straus outlines how,...

Stress, Culture, and Aggression
ISBN: 9780300102093 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this important book, the authors use a widely accepted index to compare the stressfulness of life in different states, present new data on various kinds of violence, and make a compelling case that stress leads to widespread and often lethal aggression. They also examine how the norms of the various subcultural groups within states relate to drinking, the use of violence for socially legitimate purposes, the status of women, and readership of pornography, in an effort to explain geographic differences in the manifestations of violence. "A fascinating attempt to understand the relationship...

Uterine and Embryonic Factors in Early Pregnancy
ISBN: 9781461364924 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 291 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Human reproduction is the most dynamic of processes. The events which lead to the birth of a normal healthy infant have their origin long before actual fertilization. Indeed, the whole process can be looked upon as a continuum. Human fertilization and early development, once sequestered in the protective environment of the fallopian tubes and uterus, have now been exposed in the laboratory. These events have, over time, been extensively observed and catalogued in animal models. The tools of modem morphology and molecular biology have reopened issues long since considered settled as facets of...

The book is grounded in the unprecedented national survey of the extent, patterns, and causes of violence in the American family.
