Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) When Dr Thomas Doherty published his groundbreaking paper 'The Psychological Impacts of Global Climate Change' in American Psychologist over a decade ago, he predicted a perfect storm brewing for a mental health crisis of global proportions. Today that crisis has arrived. We are more anxious than ever, seized by an impossible new source of mental anguish: climate change and the global environmental crisis. Doherty, a pioneer in this crucial, fast-growing field, recognizes that this is a very real crisis as well as an existential one. The magnitude of our fear is so great, that many of us...

Hollywood's Censor: Joseph I. Breen and the Production Code Administration
ISBN: 9780231143585 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) From 1934 to 1954 Joseph I. Breen, a media-savvy Victorian Irishman, reigned over the Production Code Administration, the Hollywood office tasked with censoring the American screen. Though little known outside the ranks of the studio system, this former journalist and public relations agent was one of the most powerful men in the motion picture industry. As enforcer of the puritanical Production Code, Breen dictated "final cut" over more movies than anyone in the history of American cinema. His editorial decisions profoundly influenced the images and values projected by Hollywood during the...

Pre-Code Hollywood: Sex, Immorality, and Insurrection in American Cinema, 1930â "1934
ISBN: 9780231110952 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Pre-Code Hollywood explores the fascinating period in American motion picture history from 1930 to 1934 when the commandments of the Production Code Administration were violated with impunity in a series of wildly unconventional films--a time when censorship was lax and Hollywood made the most of it. Though more unbridled, salacious, subversive, and just plain bizarre than what came afterwards, the films of the period do indeed have the look of Hollywood cinema--but the moral terrain is so off-kilter that they seem imported from a parallel universe. In a sense, Doherty avers, the...

Cold War, Cool Medium: Television, McCarthyism, and American Culture
ISBN: 9780231129534 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Conventional wisdom holds that television was a co-conspirator in the repressions of Cold War America, that it was a facilitator to the blacklist and handmaiden to McCarthyism. But Thomas Doherty argues that, through the influence of television, America actually became a more open and tolerant place. Although many books have been written about this period, Cold War, Cool Medium is the only one to examine it through the lens of television programming. To the unjaded viewership of Cold War America, the television set was not a harbinger of intellectual degradation and moral decay,...

Teenagers and Teenpics: The Juvenilization of American Movies in the 1950's
ISBN: 9781566399456 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) "Teenagers and Teenpics" tells the story of two signature developments in the 1950s: the decline of the classical Hollywood cinema and the emergence of that strange new creature, the American teenager. Hollywood's discovery of the teenage moviegoer initiated a progressive 'juvenilization' of film content that is today the operative reality of the American motion picture industry. The juvenilization of the American movies is best revealed in the development of the 1950s 'teenpic', a picture targeted at teenagers even to the exclusion of their elders. In a wry and readable style, Doherty...

Hollywood and Hitler, 1933-1939
ISBN: 9780231163927 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Between 1933 and 1939, representations of the Nazis and the full meaning of Nazism came slowly to Hollywood, growing more ominous and distinct only as the decade wore on. Recapturing what ordinary Americans saw on the screen during the emerging Nazi threat, Thomas Doherty reclaims forgotten films, such as Hitler's Reign of Terror (1934), a pioneering anti-Nazi docudrama by Cornelius Vanderbilt Jr.; I Was a Captive of Nazi Germany (1936), a sensational true tale of "a Hollywood girl in Naziland "; and Professor Mamlock (1938), an anti-Nazi film made by German refugees...

Rural practice presents important yet challenging issues for psychology, especially given uneven population distribution, high levels of need, limited availability of rural services, and ongoing migration to urban centers.
