Flame - Retardant Polymeric Materials Springer-Verlag New York Inc.

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Flammability has been recognized as an increasingly important social and scientific problem. Fire statistics in the United States (Report on the National Commission on Fire Prevention and Control, "America Burning," 1973) emphasized the vast devastation to life and property-12,000 lives lost annually due to fire and these deaths are usually caused by inhaling smoke or toxic gases; 300,000 fire injuries; 11. 4 billion dollars in fire cost of which 2. 7 billion dollars is related to property loss; a billion dollars to burn injury treatment; and 3. 3 billion dollars in productivity loss. It is obvious that much human and economic misery can be attributed to fire situations. In relation to this, polymer flammability has been recognized as an increasingly important social and scientific problem. The development of flame-retardant polymeric materials is a current example where the initiative for major scientific and technological developments is motivated by sociological pressure and legisla tion. This is part of the important trend toward a safer environment and sets a pattern for future example. Flame retardancy deals with our basic everyday life situations-housing, work areas, transportation, clothing and so forth the "macroenvironment" capsule within which "homosapiens" live. As a result, flame-retardant polymers are now emerging as a specific class of materials leading to new and diversified scientific and technological ventures.

David Myers' Social Psychology continues to set the standard by which other Social Psychology texts are judged. Its renowned authorĹźs engaging writing style and unique, intimate voice make the text compelling without being simplistic. The organization logically moves the student through the study of how people think, influence, and relate, with an appropriate balance of basic research and applied material. This edition offers greater emphasis on contemporary research, and uses video clips and vignettes to emphasize the relevance of social psychology research."The Story Behind the Research" boxes (selected and updated from the previous editionĹźs "Behind the Theory boxes") continues to offer interviews with classic researchers and now also include contemporary, cutting-edge researchers.|A new feature, "The Personal Postscript," offers a question for reflection that engages the readers in connecting principles of social psychology to their lives.|Several "Focus On" boxes have been updated to emphasize news and current events related to topics in social psychology, as well as the real life role of social psychology.|Packaged free with the text, the Social Connection CD-ROM includes short video outtakes from interviews with researchers, which elaborate on studies detailed within the text or provide new insight into how famous researchers became interested in social psychology; this footage is not included in the modules created for classroom use. The CD also includes multiple choice questions for each chapter. |The Online Learning Center now includes PowerWeb--a unique resource that brings the latest scientific findings into the classroom with current articles from The New York Times. Curriculum-based materials, weekly updates with quizzes, refereed Web links, research tools, study aids, and interactive exercises give students the opportunity to sharpen their critical thinking skills. A PowerWeb access card is packaged free with each new copy of the text!|The text pioneered the effective organization that divides the material into three sections: "Social Thinking," "Social Influence," and "Social Relations." This structure allows students to develop an integrated understanding of the subject as they progress logically from one area of social psychology to the next. |Applications of social psychology are interwoven throughout every chapter, reflected in major chapter headings, and highlighted in the applied chapters clustered as three concluding modules: "Social Psychology in the Clinic," "Social Psychology in Court," and "Social Psychology and the Sustainable Future." |Relevant examples from the arts, business, sports, and current events appeal to students from a variety of majors and backgrounds. |The engaging and personal writing style reflects the authorĹźs enthusiasm for the subject. |Brief "Social Connection" video modules, free to adopters of the text, combine recreations of classic social psychology experiments, footage from original experiments, and interviews with high-profile social psychologists. Available for each chapter of the text, these modules range from 5 to 18 minutes in length, and are all contained on one videotape or CD-ROM for ease of use.

Art of Life Polity Press

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

In our individualized society we are all artists of life - whether we know it or not, will it or not and like it or not, by decree of society if not by our own choice. In this society we are all expected, rightly or wrongly, to give our lives purpose and form by using our own skills and resources, even if we lack the tools and materials with which artists' studios need to be equipped for the artist's work to be conceived and executed. And we are praised or censured for the results - for what we have managed or failed to accomplish and for what we have achieved and lost. In our liquid modern society we are also taught to believe that the purpose of the art of life should be and can be happiness - though it's not clear what happiness is, the images of a happy state keep changing and the state of happiness remains most of the time something yet-to-be-reached. This new book by Zygmunt Bauman - one of the most original and influential social thinkers writing today - is not a book of designs for the art of life nor a 'how to' book: the construction of a design for life and the way it is pursued is and cannot but be an individual responsibility and individual accomplishment.It is instead a brilliant account of conditions under which our designs-for-life are chosen, of the constraints that might be imposed on their choice and of the interplay of design, accident and character that shape their implementation. Last but not least, it is a study of the ways in which our society - the liquid modern, individualized society of consumers - influences (but does not determine) the way we construct and narrate our life trajectories.

Life Choices Lucky Duck

Inne 1

Teachers, parents and carers worry that the decisions that children and young people make might be unwise or dangerous. Decision making is a skill involving both a cognitive and an affective process. It is an ability to: recognize the thoughts and feelings; consider the consequences; and choose the best outcome. Decision making is a highly valued facility leading to resilience, achievement and responsibility. The skill can be taught and here the authors provide all the materials needed to teach a course on decision making to adolescents. The programme provides a menu of stories related to the real life experiences of the young people. Topics are selected to be age appropriate and include: stealing; lying; social behaviours; risks; justice; loss, grief and bereavement; prejudice; first love; disability; leaving home; and family relationships. The teacher notes indicate 'stopping points' where reflection and discussion is encouraged. A choice of endings is offered or the young people can develop their own ideas about what might happen next.

Spalona Żywcem Wyd. Kieszonkowe - Souad

Książki & Multimedia > Książki

Opis - Pierwsze na świecie świadectwo ofiary zbrodni honorowej. Miała siedemnaście lat i zakochała się: zhańbiła rodzinę. Więc rodzina wydała na nią wyrok śmierci... Pokochała go pierwszą miłością. Myślała, że się z nią ożeni. Ale ukochany zniknął, a ona odkryła, że jest w ciąży. A w jej świecie to najcięższa zbrodnia... W zapomnianej przez Boga wiosce w Cisjordanii kobiety są warte mniej niż zwierzęta domowe. Tu mężczyzna jest panem życia i śmierci żony, córki, siostry. Brat może bezkarnie zabić siostrę, matka - córkę, kolejną bezużyteczną dziewczynkę, jaka się urodzi. Tu kobiecie odbiera się godność, a nawet życie zgodnie z odwiecznym obyczajem i uświęconą tradycją. A śmierć jest karą dla dziewczyny, która zhańbi rodzinę. Tak jak Souad. Wyrok wydaje jej ojciec. Szwagier dokonuje egzekucji. Oblewa Souad benzyną i podpala... SOUAD przeżyła - cudem, ale rodzina usiłowała zabić ją nawet w szpitalu. Na zawsze jednak pozostanie straszliwie okaleczona - na ciele i duszy. I wciąż musi się ukrywać; dopóki żyje, jej rodzinę okrywa hańba. Spalona żywcem, opublikowana pod pseudonimem szokująca opowieść o piekle, jakim było jej dzieciństwo i młodość, stała się międzynarodowym bestsellerem. Wydana w 37 w krajach książka przerywa tabu milczenia wobec istniejącej nadal w krajach muzułmańskich barbarzyńskiej tradycji. Nieludzkiego obyczaju, prawa mężczyzn, na mocy którego co najmniej pięć tysięcy kobiet pada co roku ofiarą zbrodni honorowej. Nazwa - Spalona Żywcem Wyd.

Dressing Renaissance Florence Johns Hopkins University Press

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

As portraits, private diaries, and estate inventories make clear, elite families of the Italian Renaissance were obsessed with fashion, investing as much as forty percent of their fortunes on clothing. In fact, the most elaborate outfits of the period could cost more than a good-sized farm out in the Mugello. Yet despite its prominence in both daily life and the economy, clothing has been largely overlooked in the rich historiography of Renaissance Italy. In Dressing Renaissance Florence, however, Carole Collier Frick provides the first in-depth study of the Renaissance fashion industry, focusing on Florence, a city founded on cloth, a city of wool manufacturers, finishers, and merchants, of silk dyers, brocade weavers, pearl dealers, and goldsmiths. From the artisans who designed and assembled the outfits to the families who amassed fabulous wardrobes, Frick's wide-ranging and innovative interdisciplinary history explores the social and political implications of clothing in Renaissance Italy's most style-conscious city.Frick begins with a detailed account of the industry itself-its organization within the guild structure of the city, the specialized work done by male and female workers of differing social status, the materials used and their sources, and the garments and accessories produced. She then shows how the driving force behind the growth of the industry was the elite families of Florence, who, in order to maintain their social standing and family honor, made continuous purchases of clothing-whether for everyday use or special occasions-for their families and households. And she concludes with an analysis of the clothes themselves: what pieces made up an outfit; how outfits differed for men, women, and children; and what colors, fabrics, and design elements were popular. Further, and perhaps more basically, she asks how we know what we know about Renaissance fashion and looks to both Florence's sumptuary laws, which defined what could be worn on the streets, and the depiction of contemporary clothing in Florentine art for the answer. For Florence's elite, appearance and display were intimately bound up with self-identity.Dressing Renaissance Florence enables us to better understand the social and cultural milieu of Renaissance Italy.
