Sigmund Freud
The Future of an Illusion

1989 y.
Publisher: W. W. Norton &, Company, Inc.
Description: Of the various English translations of Freud`s major works to appear in his lifetime, only one was authorized by Freud himself: The Standard Edition of the `Complete Psychological Works` of Sigmund Freud under the general editorship of James Strachey. Freud approved the overall editorial plan, specific renderings of key words and phrases, and the addition of valuable notes, both bibliographical and explanatory. Many of the translations were done by Strachey himself, the rest were prepared under his supervision. The result was to place the Standard Edition in a position of unquestioned supremacy over all other existing versions. Newly designed in a uniform format, each new paperback in the Standard Edition opens with a biographical essay on Freud`s life and work-along with a note on the individual volume - by Peter Gay, Sterling Professor of History at Yale. `The Future of an Illusion` In the manner of the eighteenth-century philosophe, Freud argued that religion and… [detailed...]

The Future of the American Labor Movement

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Coming at a time of profound change in the global conditions under which American organized labor exists, The Future of the American Labor Movement describes and analyzes labor`s strategic alternatives. It casts its net broadly, taking into account ideasthat range from the current European Social Dialogue to the methods of the nineteenth Century American Knights of Labor. There are a number of intriguing strategies that have potential for reviving the U.S. labor movement, of which worker ownership and labor capital strategies are examples.

The Future of the Environment: Ecological Economics and Technological Change

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: One of the most important and complex problems facing both developing and industrialized nations is how to sustain economic growth without harming the environment. Faye Duchin and Glenn-Marie Lange address this issue in a practical and realistic way: through a detailed evaluation of the well-known approach to sustainable development outlined in the Brundtland Report, Our Common Future. Taking issue with the Brundtland Report`s optimistic and widely accepted assumptions, the authors show that the positive effects of recycling, increased fuel-efficiency, and other technological adjustments will not go far enough to provide for truly sustainable development in the long term. Through a new, broad-based empirical analysis, they argue that unless there aresignificant changes in lifestyles and the use of technologies, continued environmental degradation cannot be avoided. They warn that the trend of making only slight adjustments in the use of technologies, while feasible from an… [detailed...]

The Futures of European Capitalism

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In this path-breaking book, the author argues that European countries` political-economic policies, practices, and discourses have changed profoundly in response to globalization and Europeanization, but they have not converged. Although national policies may now be more similar, especially where they follow from common European policies, they are not the same. National practices, although moving in the same general direction toward greater market orientation, continue to be differentiable into not just one or even two but three varieties of capitalism. And national discourses that generate and legitimate changes in policies and practices not only remain distinct, they matter. The book is a tour de force which combines sophisticated theoretical insights and innovative methods to show that European countries generally, but in particular Britain, France, and Germany , have had very different experiences of economic adjustment, and will continue to do so into the future.

The Futurist Moment: Avant-Garde, Avant Guerre, and the Language of Rupture, with a New Preface

2003 y.
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
Description: Marjorie Perloff`s stunning book was one of the first to offer a serious and far-reaching examination of the momentous flourishing of Futurist aesthetics in the European art and literature of the early twentieth century. Offering penetrating considerations of the prose, visual art, poetry, and carefully crafted manifestos of Futurists from Russia to Italy, Perloff reveals the Moment`s impulses and operations, tracing its echoes through the years to the work of `postmodern` figures like Roland Barthes. This updated edition, with its new preface, reexamines the Futurist Moment in the light of a new century, in which Futurist aesthetics seem to have steadily more to say to the present. [detailed...]

Description: For years, Elisabeth Hasselbeck couldn`t figure out what was making her sick. She asked doctors and consulted nutritionists, but no one seemed to have any answers. It wasn`t until spending time in the Australian Outback, living off the land on the grueling Survivor TV show, that, ironically, her symptoms vanished. Returning home, she pinpointed the food that made her sick -- gluten, the binding element in wheat. By simply eliminating it from her diet, she was able to enjoy a completely normal, healthy life. But that wasn`t all. Hasselbeck discovered the myriad benefits that anyone can enjoy from a gluten-free diet: from weight loss and increased energy to even the alleviation of the conditions of autism. In this all-inclusive book, Hasselbeck shares her hard-earned wisdom on living life without gluten and loving it. She gives you everything you need to know to start living a gluten-free life, from defining gluten - where to find it, how to read food labels - to targeting gluten-free… [detailed...]
