W. J. T. Mitchell
What Do Pictures Want?: The Lives and Loves of Images

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Why do we have such extraordinarily powerful responses toward the images and pictures we see in everyday life? Why do we behave as if pictures were alive, possessing the power to influence us, to demand things from us, to persuade us, seduce us, or even lead us astray? According to W. J. T. Mitchell, we need to reckon with images not just as inert objects that convey meaning but as animated beings with desires, needs, appetites, demands, and drives of their own. What Do Pictures Want? explores this idea and highlights Mitchell`s innovative and profoundly influential thinking on picture theory and the lives and loves of images. Ranging across the visual arts, literature, and mass media, Mitchell applies characteristically brilliant and wry analyses to Byzantine icons and cyberpunk films, racial stereotypes and public monuments, ancient idols and modern clones, offensive images and found objects, American photography and aboriginal painting. Opening new vistas in… [detailed...]

What Do Women REALLY Want? Chocolate!

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionWhat do women really want? Chocolate! But you already knew that, right? Everyone knows the delicious anticipation of dipping into a fresh box of chocolates…and so it is with this charming collection of cartoons by New Yorker cartoonist Donna Barstow. Chocolate is on the minds of many ladies most of the time, and we`re lucky that cartoonist Barstow has been willing to share her own obsession with it. Why do women crave it, anyway? Why is it more important than love? How many uses canone find for it? These and other questions may be answered - or not - in these cool cartoons about women and their not so secret madness. Ranging from `laugh out loud` to `I gotta send this to a friend,` the over 120 drawings here are New Yorker-typecartoons with a distinctive girly slant. The pen-and-ink line drawings with wash are reproduced well in this medium-sized hardcover. Quotations on chocolate from authors like Mel Gibson to George Bernard Shaw are also included, and an… [detailed...]

What Do You Do When Your Parents Live Forever?: A practical guide to caring for the elderly

2007 y.
Publisher: O Books
Description: Life expectancy is going up. Our parents are increasingly likely to be living into their eighties and nineties. Many find themselves in the position of caring for their parents when they are already retired themselves, or not in good health, or still have children to support financially. Do you feel your parents are a burden? Do they feel that? How do we cope with the huge costs of geriatric care? How do we manage this conflicting tangle of interests? This is a practical book that looks at the range of alternatives and provides realistic solutions. It also recognizes the negative and ambivalent feelings that plague families on all sides. Extreme old age is not easy. We need to help our parents through the difficulties they inevitably face during their final years, and balance those needs with equally pressing ones elsewhere. Dan and Lavinia Cohn-Sherbok here provide a succinct overview of the problems and answers for all with elderly parents. [detailed...]

What Do You Mean?: Conceptual Clarity in Social Policy

Description: Efficiency and equity are priorities in the social policies of both industrial and developing countries. However, policy studies use efficiency and equity objectives in a general way, while in practice they may refer to specific concepts. What Do You Mean? looks at the political dimension of the economic problem--different value judgments lead to different concepts of efficiency and equity--and shows how conceptual clarity can improve social services delivery. The design of social policies dependson the interpretation--rarely explicit--of policymakers. [detailed...]

What Does Mr. Greenspan Really Think?: Alan Greenspan`s Speech at the Catholic University Leuven, Leuven, Belgium January 14, 1997

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: `There are very few people who understand the arcane ways in which money is created or, for that matter, who benefits and who is adversely affected by this act of creation. By parsing the language of the Fed chairman, Larry Parks has uncovered a minefield of illuminating observations. Larry Parks, the president of FAME, is the quintessential truth-teller in a world of obscurantism and misunderstanding. For most people, banking and global finance are a mystery wrapped in an enigma. However, the creation of fiat money affects transactions, buying power, investments, personal wealth and the rise and fall of nation states. Even today the runaway inflation during the German Weimar period in the 1930`s affects the attitude of the European Central bankers. Through textual analysis Mr. Parks offers extraordinary insight into the operation of the Federal Reserve and, as importantly, the future purchasing power of money. Lest anyone think these are either abstract or pettifogging matters, the… [detailed...]

What Drives Global Capital Flows?: Myth, Speculation and Currency Diplomacy

This book presents a novel geography of these flows, revealing the driving forces behind them and the crucial turntable roles played by Europe. The market mechanisms necessary for a smooth global flow of funds are shown to be robust but vulnerable to short-circuits triggered by monetary disequilibrium, especially deflation. The game of currency diplomacy, as played between Paris, Washington, Tokyo, and Beijing, largely disregards this danger. [detailed...]

Taking off from her acclaimed one-woman show of the same title, Woodbury continually surprises in this novel with her ability to create new forms while always locating the unique, resonant humanity that links all the characters to one another—and to the… [detailed...]
