Using firsthand evidence, he explains in detail how big business marketing campaigns penetrate and profoundly affect the lives of ordinary Americans.

The Contemporary Dictionary of Sexual Euphemisms

2007 y.
Publisher: St. Martin`s Press
Description: The sexual euphemism originated from society`s inability to accept sexuality as a normal part of existence. It was a mark of shame to have desire. The euphemism has been used as a shield against these judgments and has more recently been adopted by contemporary masculinity to be used as both shield and weapon. Contemporary masculinity is a fragile thing that is easily threatened by any form of change or emasculation. It is because of this that the lexicon of sexual euphemisms has several distinct categories. If examined, it is easy to decipher how and why these euphemisms were created to empower masculinity which, since the women`s movement, has become increasingly unstable and threatened. It is masculinity that stands as a threat to itself, and the euphemism is merely salting the wound. The inability of masculinity to define itself independent of femininity, rather than proclaiming itself as the antithesis of femininity, is catapulted to the forefront of society by the form and… [detailed...]

Description: As malaria and other tropical diseases continue their resurgence, questions about the potential impacts of environmental and demographic factors are becoming more critical. Recent attempts to understand the increase in malaria incidence often acknowledgethe importance of social, economic and other contextual variables, but fail to explicitly incorporate them into models or consider how they evolve in relation to one another. This problem is of crucial interest to the climate policy community, which has been buffeted by claims and counter-claims concerning the impact of climate change on malaria. This important volume examines the contextual determinants of malaria and attempts to develop methods for incorporating them into projections of future incidence. Internationally renowned health specialists, economists, and other social scientists provide regional and global perspectives on risk modeling, the history of eradication efforts, current determinants (including environmental,… [detailed...]
