Jane Van Buren
Mothers and Daughters and the Origins of Female Subjectivity

2007 y.
Publisher: Routledge
Description: `Mothers and Daughters and the Origins of Female Subjectivity` challenges the theory of the Oedipus complex, which permeates psychoanalytic theory, psychology, semiotics and cultural studies. The book focuses on the re-examination of women`s development through the theories of primitive mental states. Women`s subjectivity has been profoundly limited by continuing anxieties about the mother`s body. Jane Van Buren describes how women are gradually escaping the curse of inferiority and finding a voice, enabling the mother to provide their daughters with a legacy of rightful agency over their bodies and minds. Drawing on the theories of Klein, Bion and Winnicott, and incorporating recent developments in psychobiology, this book provides a novel approach to subjects including the dreams, myths and phantasies of individuals, the nature of mother and daughter relationships, sexuality, pregnancy, menstruation and the idea of the mother`s body as problematic and dangerous.

Patizia Albanese
Mothers of the Nation: Women, Families, and Nationalism in Twentieth-Century Europe (Studies in Comparative Political Economy and Public Policy)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: How do nationalist governments cope with gender relations? Do their policies modernize, or entrench pre-modern gender roles? In Mothers of the Nation , Patrizia Albanese addresses these questions by assessing the impact of nationalist regimes on the status of women and families in Germany, Italy, Yugoslavia, and Russia, at two different points in history: the aftermath of the First World War, which saw a rise in the number of nationalist governments in power, and the last decade of the twentieth century, which saw a revival of ethno-nationalist sentiment in these areas. Comparing nationalist and non-nationalist polities in order to establish the degree to which these governments differ in their treatment of women and families, Albanese concludes that although most ethno-nationalist regimes intend to return women to their `natural` place in the home as housewives and mothers, their initiatives are mostly ineffective. These reforms are vehemently opposed by women`s groups… [detailed...]

Mothers on the Fast Track: How a New Generation Can Balance Family and Careers

2007 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In the past few decades the number of women entering graduate and professional schools has been going up and up, while the number of women reaching the top rung of the corporate and academic worlds has remained relatively stagnant. Why are so many women falling off the fast track? In this timely book, Mary Ann Mason traces the career paths of the first generation of ambitious women who started careers in academia, law, medicine, business, and the media in large numbers in the 1970s and `80s. Many women who had started families but continued working had ended up veering off the path to upper management at a point she calls `the second glass ceiling.` Rather than sticking to their original career goals, they allowed themselves to slide into a second tier of management that offers fewer hours, less pay, lower prestige, and limited upward mobility. Men who did likewise--entered the career world with high aspirations and then started families while working--not only did not show the… [detailed...]

Mothers-in-Law and Daughters-in-Law: Love, Hate, Rivalry and Reconciliation

2001 y.
Publisher: New Horizon Press
Description: Susan Shapiro Barash, acclaimed author of Second Wives and Sisters, turns her penetrating powers of observation to the oldest of triangles, exploring the uncharted dimensions of mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, and son/husband roles. Women whose mother/daughter-in-law status is fast approaching, newly acquired, or well established will benefit from this book, as will the son/husband stuck in the middle. Barash leads readers through this complex relationship to a better understanding of the dynamics of insecurity, generational jealousies, child rearing dilemmas and power struggles. Utilizing an extensive survey of hundreds of women, their mothers-in-law and the men they share, Barash presents the real voices of those affected, the mixed feelings and problems faced as well as the ways in which they learned to cope and solutions devised. Interspersed with these first-hand accounts are the insights and recommendations of noted psychologists and relationship counselors. From… [detailed...]

Deborah M. Merrill
Mothers-in-Law and Daughters-in-Law: Understanding the Relationship and What Makes Them Friends or Foe

2007 y.
Publisher: Praeger Publishers
Description: We all know-and have perhaps told-stories about mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law. It seems the stories are nearly always about relationships filled with conflict and abrasive words or actions. But why is this relationship so difficult? Is it always as bad as popular belief would have us think? Deborah Merrill, a woman`s advocate and Sociology professor at one of our nation`s top universities, has been studying the relationship for nearly a decade. In this book, she explains where the difficulty is rooted, how friendly pairs have made it past problems that surface between a man`s mother and his wife, and how they became friends. Dozens of interviews with pairs of women made in-laws by marriage illustrate Merrill`s points, from harmful ideas and actions to helpful approaches. At its core, this book holds that marriage requires the creation of a new and separate family, which requires changes in roles, as well as a redefinition of relationships. Hence, family boundaries need to be… [detailed...]

Description: I held the hat while the Deacon brought the board. Then with trembling care we slipped it under, and carefully carried the moth into the conservatory. First we turned on the light, and made sure that every ventilator was closed, then we released the Io for the night. In the morning we found a female clinging to a shelf, dotting it with little top-shaped eggs. I was delighted, for I thought this meant the complete history of a beautiful moth. So exquisite was the living, breathing creature, she put to shame the form and colouring of the mounted specimens. No wonder I had not cared for them! [detailed...]

Motigraphics : The Analysis and Measurement of Human Motivations in Marketing

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Motigraphics is the natural complement to demographics and psychographics. It is the completion of a triad. This is because motives are the most important dimension of all human behavior. For consumers, motives lead directly to decisions and decisions directly to purchasing behavior. Demographics and psychographics tell us the what, when, where, and how of consumer behavior but Motigraphics tells us why consumers do what they do. It studies motives, the most important element of consumer behavior. Not only does Dr. Maddock show how to measure motives, but also how to assess the amount of emotion involved in a brand so that brand equity may be measured. Motigraphics defines the `subliminal cue` as the basic unit of measurement, and with this unit of measurement consumer motives can now be assessed objectively. Since most consumer decisions are based upon emotion and not reason, this book will be of the utmost importance to professionals in advertising, marketing, sales, and the… [detailed...]

Description: The monograph written by Ron Alterovitz and Ken Goldberg combines ideas from robotics, physically-based modeling, and operations research to develop new motion planning and optimization algorithms for image-guided medical procedures. A challenge clinicians commonly face is compensating for errors caused by soft tissue deformations that occur when imaging devices or surgical tools physically contact soft tissue. A number of methods are presented which can be applied to a variety of medical procedures, from biopsies to anaesthesia injections to radiation cancer treatment. They can also be extended to address problems outside the context of medical robotics, including nonholonomic motion planning for mobile robots in field or manufacturing environments. [detailed...]
