ISBN: 9781612052304 / Angielski / Twarda / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Worlding brings ideas about "virtual" places and societies together with perceptions about the "real" world in an era of mounting global uncertainty. As mass media and the Internet consume ever-increasing portions of our lives, are we becoming disengaged from face-to-face human interaction and real-world concerns? Or is the virtual world actually bringing people closer together and making them more involved with social issues? Worlding argues that the "virtual" and the "real" are profoundly interconnected, often in ways we don't fully appreciate. Drawing on sociology, cultural studies,...

Anorexic Bodies: A Feminist and Sociological Perspective on Anorexia Nervosa
ISBN: 9781138418769 / Angielski / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book explores the ways in which anorexic women use their eating to control their bodies. It argues that the female body in modern Western culture is understood as open and accessible and female appetite as dangerous and voracious. Anorexia attempts to resist both these constructions in the creation of a closed, desireless body. Since anorexic women resist the power of collective ideologies their resistance cannot work - the closed body becomes its own prison.
