Big Rural - Crystal Cook Marshall - Bog - Lexington Books - Plusbog.dk

Big Rural - Crystal Cook Marshall - Bog - Lexington Books - Plusbog.dk

In Big Rural: Rural Industrial Places, Democracy, and What Next, Crystal Cook Marshall unveils the rural not as wild and unknowable but as measured and intervened-in as big cities. Drawing international comparisons with a case study centering on the Pocahontas Coalfield, Cook Marshall documents that rural places are often systems among systems that scientists and engineers heavily shape both in landscape and culture. Often single sector economies with consolidated power and automation away of jobs, these rural industrial places compound the problems of their inhabitants, even threatening their capacity to practice democracy. Cook Marshall interacts with rural interveners from industry to Rural Studies and Science and Technology scholars to policy advocates, also detailing the gaps in related scholarship. Building from analysis, she proposes a range of antidotes to the extraction and destruction of “Big Rural” both in material life and in knowledge, such as potential National Rural and Sustainable Agricultural strategies. Through these, in interviews with rural change agents, through research, and through local and federal paths, Cook Marshall asserts a way forward for the rural that is more equitable and just.

Inscrutable Malice - Jonathan A. Cook - Bog - Cornell University Press - Plusbog.dk

Inscrutable Malice - Jonathan A. Cook - Bog - Cornell University Press - Plusbog.dk

In Inscrutable Malice , Jonathan A. Cook expertly illuminates Melville''s abiding preoccupation with the problem of evil and the dominant role of the Bible in shaping his best-known novel. Drawing on recent research in the fields of biblical studies, the history of religion, and comparative mythology, Cook provides a new interpretation of Moby-Dick that places Melville''s creative adaptation of the Bible at the center of the work. Cook identifies two ongoing concerns in the narrative in relation to their key biblical sources: the attempt to reconcile the goodness of God with the existence of evil, as dramatized in the book of Job; and the discourse of the Christian end-times involving the final destruction of evil, as found in the apocalyptic books and eschatological passages of the Old and New Testaments. With his detailed reading of Moby-Dick in relation to its most important source text, Cook greatly expands the reader''s understanding of the moral, religious, and mythical dimensions of the novel. Both accessible and erudite, Inscrutable Malice will appeal to scholars, students, and enthusiasts of Melville''s classic whaling narrative.

Unintended Consequences of Electronic Medical Records - Barbara Cook Overton - Bog - Lexington Books - Plusbog.dk

Unintended Consequences of Electronic Medical Records - Barbara Cook Overton - Bog - Lexington Books - Plusbog.dk

Unintended Consequences of Electronic Medical Records: An Emergency Room Ethnography argues that, while electronic medical records (EMRs) were supposed to improve health care delivery, EMRs’ unintended consequences have affected emergency medicine providers and patients in alarming ways. Higher health care costs, decreased physician productivity, increased provider burnout, lower levels of patient satisfaction, and more medical mistakes are just a few of the unintended consequences Barbara Cook Overton observes while studying one emergency room’s EMR adoption. With data collected over six years, Cook Overton demonstrates how EMRs harm health care organizations and thrust providers into the midst of incompatible rule systems without appropriate strategies for coping with these challenges, thus robbing them of agency. Using structuration theory and its derivatives to frame her analysis, Cook Overton explores ways providers communicatively and performatively receive and manage EMRs in emergency rooms. Scholars of communication and medicine will find this book particularly useful.

The Long Sexual Revolution - Hera Cook - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

The Long Sexual Revolution - Hera Cook - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

In this book Hera Cook traces the path of sexuality in England, and shows how its route was determined by the gradual exertion of control over fertility. Most sexual activity had major economic and social costs, the most fundamental of which was the physical cost of children upon women''s bodies. Around 1800 birth rates reached historical heights. Using a combination of demographic and qualitative sources, Dr Cook examines the connection between the struggle to lower fertility and the increasing repression of sexuality throughout the nineteenth century. Contraception became a viable option in the early twentieth century. The book charts the resulting slow relaxation of attitudes to sexuality and the remaking of heterosexual physical behaviour, culminating in the sexual revolution of the 1960s.

Music, Encounter, Togetherness - Nicholas Cook - Bog - Oxford University Press Inc - Plusbog.dk

Music, Encounter, Togetherness - Nicholas Cook - Bog - Oxford University Press Inc - Plusbog.dk

In today''s technological and globalised world, music remains a basic dimension of society. Music, Encounter, Togetherness outlines a relational approach to music that creates space for both human agency and social relationship. Throughout the book, author Nicholas Cook puts Euro-American musical traditions into dialogue with other world music cultures, complementing theory-driven approaches with comprehensive case studies ranging from late eighteenth-century India to contemporary China, and from Debussy''s encounter with Javanese music and dance to cross-cultural musicking in Australia and in cyberspace. Through these examples, Cook examines how music affords interpersonal relationship and social togetherness, and what happens when musicians from different cultures interact.Central to the book is the idea of encounter, which highlights the dynamic and processual nature of musicking, as much in therapy or at home as in the jazz club or concert hall. Western musicologists have traditionally thought of music as primarily a repertory of objects; Cook illustrates how thinking of it in processual terms--through an expanded idea of performance--can make as much sense of Western art music as of other traditions. In basing an understanding of music on acts rather than objects and focussing on people and their relationships rather than on the impersonal forces of evolutionary or stylistic histories, the book opens up ways of thinking that counter some of the dehumanising aspects of musical thinking and practice in global modernity.

Close to the Earth - Judith Cook - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Close to the Earth - Judith Cook - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

First published in 1984, Close to the Earth is a record of a vanishing age in Britain, of working communities and working individuals who made their living from the land, the rivers and the sea. It is based on conversations and personal memories collected for over twenty years and is illustrated with many contemporary photographs of the times remembered. The people Judith Cook talked to—who among other things mined, fished, worked the land and brewed ale, and worked in stone and slate—lived through an era which spanned man’s first flight and the first landing on the moon. Their way of life, which in many parts of the country had remained unchanged over the centuries, is fast passing from sight and memory. What Judith Cook succeeded brilliantly in doing is to record the stories of some extraordinary ordinary people, how they worked and how they felt, before it was too late.

Social Control and Socialization - Jenny Cook Gumperz - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Social Control and Socialization - Jenny Cook Gumperz - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Basil Bernstein’s theory of social control was the foundation for this pioneer study of the language mothers use to socialize their children, and how it affects their understanding of social values and social attitudes as they grow older. Originally published in 1973, Dr Cook-Gumperz’s research was particularly important in that it made use of analytical methods which could measure numerically the manifestations of the three kinds of control – imperative, positional, personal – that Bernstein distinguished. Using the coding grid developed by Professor Bernstein and herself, Jenny Cook-Gumperz demonstrates clearly the relations between maternal class, maternal approach to discipline and the child’s progress. By showing that the effects of early upbringing on the educational potential of children were measurable, this significant work in the comparatively new field of sociolinguistics would form a basis for the methodological approach to further practical investigations of a similar nature at the time. Today it can be read in its historical context.

Continuity and Change in the Native American Village - Robert A. Cook - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Continuity and Change in the Native American Village - Robert A. Cook - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Two common questions asked in archaeological investigations are: where did a particular culture come from, and which living cultures is it related to? In this book, Robert A. Cook brings a theoretically and methodologically holistic perspective to his study on the origins and continuity of Native American villages in the North American Midcontinent. He shows that to affiliate archaeological remains with descendant communities fully we need to unaffiliate some of our well-established archaeological constructs. Cook demonstrates how and why Native American villages formed and responded to events such as migration, environment and agricultural developments. He focuses on the big picture of cultural relatedness over broad regions and the amount of social detail that can be gleaned from archaeological and biological data, as well as oral histories.

The Moral Project of Childhood - Daniel Thomas Cook - Bog - New York University Press - Plusbog.dk

The Moral Project of Childhood - Daniel Thomas Cook - Bog - New York University Press - Plusbog.dk

Examines the Protestant origins of motherhood and the child consumer Throughout history, the responsibility for children’s moral well-being has fallen into the laps of mothers. In The Moral Project of Childhood, the noted childhood studies scholar Daniel Thomas Cook illustrates how mothers in the nineteenth-century United States meticulously managed their children’s needs and wants, pleasures and pains, through the material world so as to produce the “child” as a moral project. Drawing on a century of religiously-oriented child care advice in women’s periodicals, he examines how children ultimately came to be understood by mothers—and later, by commercial actors—as consumers. From concerns about taste, to forms of discipline and punishment, to play and toys, Cook delves into the social politics of motherhood, historical anxieties about childhood, and early children’s consumer culture. An engaging read, The Moral Project of Childhood provides a rich cultural history of childhood.

Preaching and Popular Christianity - James Daniel Cook - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Preaching and Popular Christianity - James Daniel Cook - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

The vast homiletic corpus of John Chrysostom has received renewed attention in recent years as a source for the wider cultural and historical context within which his sermons were preached. Scholars have demonstrated the exciting potential his sermons have to shed light on aspects of daily life, popular attitudes, and practices of lay piety. In short, Chrysostom''s sermons have been recognised as a valuable source for the study of ''popular Christianity'' at the end of the fourth century. This study, however, questions the validity of some recent conclusions. James Daniel Cook illustrates that Chrysostom is often seen as at odds with the congregations to whom he preached. On this view, the Christianity of élites such as Chrysostom had made little inroads into popular thought beyond the fairly superficial, and congregations were still living with older, more culturally traditional views about religious beliefs which preachers were doing their utmost to overcome. Cook argues that such a portrayal is based on a misreading of Chrysostom''s sermons and fails to explain satisfactorily the apparent popularity that Chrysostom enjoyed as a preacher.Preaching and Popular Christianity: Reading the Sermons of John Chrysostom reassesses how we read Chrysostom''s sermons, with a particular focus on the stern language which permeated his preaching, and on which the image of the contrary congregation is largely based. In doing this, Cook recovers a neglected portrayal of Chrysostom as a pastor and of preaching as a pastoral and liturgical activity, and it becomes clear that his use of critical language says more about how he understood his role as preacher than about the nature of popular Christianity in late-antique society. Thus, a very different picture of late-antique Christianity emerges, in which Chrysostom''s congregations are more willing to listen and learn from their preacher than is often assumed.

Vagrant Alcoholics - Tim Cook - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Vagrant Alcoholics - Tim Cook - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

In the 1970s the vagrant alcoholic was not a new problem, and for the previous two hundred years people had asked: What can be done to help them? Why not lock them up? Why don’t they get jobs? Tim Cook had worked for many years with homeless men and in this book, originally published in 1975, he describes the problems of vagrant alcoholics and the way in which one voluntary organization, the Alcoholics Recovery Project, based in South London, responded to these problems. The response had in essence been one of experimentation beginning with the first hostel in 1966, the development of non-residential shop fronts in 1970, and the employment of a team of recovered alcoholics in 1974. The Project sought to break down the mistrust surrounding the problem on all sides and to rediscover the potential of the so-called ‘hopeless’ skid row alcoholic. Tim Cook places the Project’s work in the wider context of social work and social responsibility, and shows that its methods had relevance for other agencies. He also examines the persistent failure of successive governments to take any positive action to tackle the problems of vagrant alcoholics. Throughout the book the views of the alcoholics themselves are integrated with the attitudes and experiences of the Project workers. The author offers an assessment of the Project’s work, and an outline of its limitations, stressing that no easy answer exists to this problem. But, he believed, the Project had made valuable progress towards a greater understanding of the vagrant alcoholic and his milieu.

Postcinematic Vision - Roger F. Cook - Bog - University of Minnesota Press - Plusbog.dk

Postcinematic Vision - Roger F. Cook - Bog - University of Minnesota Press - Plusbog.dk

A study of how film has continually intervened in our sense of perception, with far-ranging insights into the current state of lived experience How has cinema transformed our senses, and how does it continue to do so? Positing film as a stage in the long coevolution of human consciousness and visual technology, Postcinematic Vision offer a fresh perspective on the history of film while providing startling new insights into the so-called divide between cinematic and digital media. Starting with the argument that film viewing has long altered neural circuitry in our brains, Roger F. Cook proceeds to reevaluate film’s origins, as well as its merger with digital imaging in the 1990s. His animating argument is that film has continually altered the relation between media and human perception, challenging the visual nature of modern culture in favor of a more unified, pan-sensual way of perceiving. Through this approach, he makes original contributions to our understanding of how mediation is altering lived experience. Along the way, Cook provides important reevaluations of well-known figures such as Franz Kafka, closely reading cinematic passages in the great author’s work; he reassesses the conventional wisdom that Marshall McLuhan was a technological determinist; and he lodges an original new reading of The Matrix . Full of provocative and far-reaching ideas, Postcinematic Vision is a powerful work that helps us see old concepts anew while providing new ideas for future investigation.

The Conflict Between the California Indian and White Civilization - Sherburne F. Cook - Bog - University of California Press - Plusbog.dk

The Conflict Between the California Indian and White Civilization - Sherburne F. Cook - Bog - University of California Press - Plusbog.dk

The Conflict Between the California Indian and White Civilization presents six groundbreaking essays by Sherburne Cook, originally published in the 1940s, which transformed the study of California's Native populations and their interactions with European settlers. Employing a biologist's analytical rigor, Cook approached historical records as if observing a population in a controlled experiment, systematically examining the reactions of indigenous communities to the disruptive influences of missionization, secularization, and Anglo-American settlement. Through meticulous statistical analysis of mission punishment records, food distribution, and settlers' treatment of Native peoples, Cook revealed a sobering narrative of systemic exploitation and destruction. These essays not only challenged the romanticized views of Franciscan missions but also highlighted the devastating impact of Anglo-American policies, igniting passionate debates upon their release. This reissued collection is a timeless contribution to California history and anthropology, widely recognized for its pioneering methodologies and transformative insights. By placing Cook’s earlier works on population trends and dietary adaptation alongside his later essays on Indian-white relations, this edition offers a comprehensive look at his evolving perspectives. A seminal work in the field of ethnohistory, it continues to inform and inspire new generations of scholars, shedding light on the profound consequences of cultural conflict in California's past. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1976.

Reading Swift's Poetry - Daniel Cook - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Reading Swift's Poetry - Daniel Cook - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Poets are makers, etymologically speaking. In practice, they are also thieves. Over a long career, from the early 1690s to the late 1730s, Jonathan Swift thrived on a creative tension between original poetry-making and the filching of familiar material from the poetic archive. The most extensive study of Swift''s verse to appear in more than thirty years, Reading Swift''s Poetry offers detailed readings of dozens of major poems, as well as neglected and recently recovered pieces. This book reaffirms Swift''s prominence in competing literary traditions as diverse as the pastoral and the political, the metaphysical and the satirical, and demonstrates the persistence of unlikely literary tropes across his multifaceted career. Daniel Cook also considers the audacious ways in which Swift engages with Juvenal''s satires, Horace''s epistles, Milton''s epics, Cowley''s odes, and an astonishing array of other canonical and forgotten writers.
