        A cultural history of stress in twentieth-century Britain

        by Jill Kirby

        Examining the popular discourse of nerves and stress, this book provides a historical account of how ordinary Britons understood, explained and coped with the pressures and strains of daily life during the twentieth century. It traces the popular, vernacular discourse of stress, illuminating not just how stress was known, but the ways in which that knowledge was produced. Taking a cultural approach, the book focuses on contemporary popular understandings, revealing continuity of ideas about work, mental health, status, gender and individual weakness, as well as the changing socio-economic contexts that enabled stress to become a ubiquitous condition of everyday life by the end of the century. With accounts from sufferers, families and colleagues it also offers insight into self-help literature, the meanings of work and changing dynamics of domestic life, delivering a complementary perspective to medical histories of stress.

        Das zweischneidige Schwert

        Herrschaft und Widerspruch im Württemberg der Frühen Neuzeit

        by David Warren Sabean, Brigitte Luchesi

        Die Herrschaftsverhältnisse im Deutschland der frühen Neuzeit werden nirgends differenzierter sichtbar als auf der Ebene dörflicher und kleinstädtischer Gesellschaften. In den Quellen erscheinen Sprach-, Vorstellungs- und Handlungsstrukturen der »einfachen« Bevölkerung jedoch fast ausschließlich durch den Filter staatlicher oder kirchlicher Untersuchungsprotokolle. Wie solche Akten als Zeugnisse einer vergangenen Volkskultur erschlossen werden können, haben u. a. die großen Arbeiten von Emmanuel Le Roy Ladurie und Carlo Ginzburg gezeigt. David Sabean verbindet hier die Analyse bäuerlicher Handlungs- und Vorstellungsstrukturen mit der Untersuchung politischer und ökonomischer Herrschaftsformen und liefert damit einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur Debatte um die Volkskultur.

        Medicalising borders

        Selection, containment and quarantine since 1800

        by Sevasti Trubeta, Christian Promitzer, Paul Weindling, Hastings Donnan

        The research of pandemics, epidemics, and pathogens like COVID-19 reaches far beyond the scope of biomedicine. It is not only an objective for the health, political and social sciences, but epidemics and pandemics are a matter of geography: foci and vectors of communicable diseases continue to test the efficacy of medical control at state borders. This volume illuminates these issues from various disciplinary viewpoints. It starts by exploring historical models of quarantine, spatial isolation and detention as precautionary means against the dissemination of disease and contagion by border crossers, migrants and refugees. Besides the patterns of prejudice with which these groups are confronted, the book also deals with various kinds of fear of contamination from outside of the nation state. The contributors address the implementation of medical techniques at state borders in the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, as well as the presently practiced measures of medical and biometric screening of migrants and refugees. Uniquely, this volume shows that the current border security regimes of Western states exhibit a high share of medicalised techniques of power, which originate both in European modernity and in the medical and biological disciplines developed during the last quarter of the millennium. Drawing on the collective expertise of a network of international researchers, this interdisciplinary volume is essential reading for those wishing to understand the medicalisation of borders across the globe, from the early eighteenth century up to the present day.

        Dealing with Depression

        Dealing with Depression

        Information for Those Affected and Their Families

        by Martin Hautzinger

        Everybody feels sad or listless at some point. This is normal. Melancholia or depression are more severe and longerlasting variants of these moods. The entire body, thought patterns, life and social relationships are affected. Depression occurs frequently and in all stages of life but is often not recognized or recognized too late and often treated inappropriately. The consequences are unnecessary suffering, loss of quality of life, strain on the family, illnesses, and even shortened life expectancy despite the availability of successful treatment options. This title outlines the symptoms and patterns of depression as well as possible causes and treatment options. In addition, self-help options are presented. The guide helps to better understand the illness and is also suitable for being read in parallel to an ongoing treatment and thus supporting the therapy. For:• those affected and their families• psychotherapists• psychiatrists• psychological coaches• primary care physicians

        A strained partnership?

        US–UK relations in the era of détente, 1969–77

        by Thomas Robb

        This is the first monograph-length study that charts the coercive diplomacy of the administrations of Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford as practised against their British ally in order to persuade Edward Heath's government to follow a more amenable course throughout the 'Year of Europe' and to convince Harold Wilson's governments to lessen the severity of proposed defence cuts. Such diplomacy proved effective against Heath but rather less so against Wilson. It is argued that relations between the two sides were often strained, indeed, to the extent that the most 'special' elements of the relationship, that of intelligence and nuclear co-operation, were suspended. Yet, the relationship also witnessed considerable co-operation. This book offers new perspectives on US and UK policy towards British membership of the European Economic Community; demonstrates how US détente policies created strain in the 'special relationship'; reveals the temporary shutdown of US-UK intelligence and nuclear co-operation; provides new insights in US-UK defence co-operation, and re-evaluates the US-UK relationship throughout the IMF Crisis. ;

        Die Küste des Raunens

        Roman

        by Lídia Jorge, Karin Schweder-Schreiner

        Eva Lopo beginnt ihre eigene tastende, forschende Erinnerungsreise in eine Vergangenheit, die traumatisch ist. Damals, vor zwei Jahrzehnten, kam sie als Braut eines jungen Offiziers nach Moçambique. An der Küste dort lebten in einer prekären, halb schon unwirklichen Enklave von alter kolonialer Pracht die portugiesischen Offiziere mit ihren Frauen und Familien. Auf der Dachterrasse des Hotels Stella Maris erreicht sie die grelle Wirklichkeit des Kolonialkrieges und die ganz andere Wirklichkeit der afrikanischen Lebenswelt nur wie durch einen Filter. Es ereignen sich rätselhafte und erschreckende Vorkommnisse. Aber diese aus Europa verpflanzten, ganz dem Militärischen verschriebenen Männer und ihre sie beobachtenden Frauen leben der Wirklichkeit seltsam entrückt und können oder wollen die Feuerzeichen nicht lesen. Eva Lopo erzählt sich selbst die damaligen Ereignisse, das Geflecht der erotischen und der verborgenen Beziehungen, und vor ihrem erinnernden Auge ist alles wie frisch erblickt. Aus dem zeitlichen und räumlichen Abstand sucht sie Klarheit zu gewinnen über das, was geschah und wie es geschehen konnte. In leidenschaftlicher Wahrheitssuche tastet sie Sätze, Gesten, Blicke ab und gerät noch einmal in den Sog der damaligen Ereignisse.

        In the Dementia Maze

        A Graphic Novel

        by Albin Zauner

        Is it possible to tell in drawings how people with dementia experience, cope with, or fail in their everyday lives? The art therapist Albin Zauner has accom­plished this feat. The picture story comprises 84 drawings and is one of the frst graphic novels on the subject of dementia. The focus is not on the medical­pathologizing view of the dis­ease pattern or course, but on the pro­tagonist’s inner world of experience. The existential effects, the loss of spa­tial and temporal orientation, the memo­ry lapses and the breakdown of speech, permeate the old man’s world of experi­ence in symbolic image sequences.

        Pest Management and Phytosanitary Trade Barriers

        by Neil Heather, Guy Hallman

        A significant amount of the world's economy is based upon the international trade of agricultural produce. For the producing countries, a growing concern is the potential economic and ecological damage that invasive species could cause. While threats can be decreased through the regulation of items potentially carrying invasive species, the effect of such restrictions on international trade also needs to be considered. A balance must therefore be met that permits the transfer of produce while filtering out unwanted pests.Drawing on the author's extensive experience, the social and financial implications of phytosanitary trade barriers are reviewed. This book offers valuable and comprehensive coverage of pest related barriers and strategies for their implementation.

        Bovine Tuberculosis

        by Mark Chambers, Stephen Gordon, Francisco Olea-Popelka, Paul Barrow

        This book is contemporary, topical and global in its approach, and provides an essential, comprehensive treatise on bovine tuberculosis and the bacterium that causes it, Mycobacterium bovis. Bovine tuberculosis remains a major cause of economic loss in cattle industries worldwide, exacerbated in some countries by the presence of a substantial wildlife reservoir. It is a major zoonosis, causing human infection through consumption of unpasteurised milk or by close contact with infected animals. Following a systematic approach, expert international authors cover epidemiology and the global situation; microbial virulence and pathogenesis; host responses to the pathogen; and diagnosis and control of the disease. Aimed at researchers and practising veterinarians, this book is essential for those needing comprehensive information on the pathogen and disease, and offers a summary of key information learned from human tuberculosis research. It will be useful to those studying the infection and for those responsible for controlling the disease.

        One Day of Us

        by Zhu Hongyan

        "One Day of Us" expresses the concepts and methods of education from three perspectives of primary school teachers, students, and parents, and presents them in the form of picture books that both adults and children are happy to accept. Through vivid stories, the essence and truth of education are subtly conveyed to every reader. Reading is like a trickle, warm and delicate. A teacher’s day through the work of a new teacher who has just started working on the campus on the first day of work, so that teachers can understand the standards and standards of behavior. There is no blunt "ban", but the spring breeze has turned the rain, moisturizing things silently, it is a set of behavior norms that all teachers are willing to accept and are willing to follow this standard. All the paintings of the children's day are done by the children themselves. Go out of the house in the early morning and come to the beautiful campus, where there are a variety of after-school activities, lively and interesting subjects learning, and warm moments of mutual help and mutual assistance that occur in the corner of the campus. In the picture book-style narrative, children are taught the correct learning attitude and ethics subtly.

        Children of the World Illustrate the Bible

        Children of the World Illustrate the Bible

        by Amos Rolnik

        Children of the World Illustrate the Bible It all began when we were looking forward to the fiftieth year Jubilee of the State of Israel. We were looking for a way, something unconventional, to bring Israel to the attention of hundreds of millions of people throughout the world. And so we came up with the idea, rather self-evident: The Bible. The Book of Books, which speaks to each and every one in dozens of countries and countless cultures. We asked ourselves: Who will bring this message? And then the idea came up: A worldwide competition among children to draw the stories of the Bible. We did not limit the subjects. Anything would be accepted as long as it was in line with the stories of the Bible. And wonder of wonders: Just like a fire in a field of thorns, the message went from country to country, from city to city, from school to school, from family to family: The children of the world are drawing the Bible. And the project reached 91 countries. Hundreds of thousands of drawings reached us. Only a handful of the thousands are brought in this album, which is the first in the series of titles flowing from the illustrations that were sent to Israel and were chosen by our staff of curators. And indeed from this handful we can already see their uniqueness. We all know the stories of the Bible, but here they materialize before our very eyes. As the children from five continents described them in their imagination, it seems that even the authors of the Bible themselves would not believe how alive and full were their heroes, as depicted with the brushes of these little children. Not only did we find a drawing of a story, but also a wide rainbow of emotions, notions, beliefs and outlooks of the world. And above all: Personal expression and riveting exposition without filters, analysis or criticism. We conducted the project throughout the world for three years, and at the end, when the thousands of drawings began streaming to the country, we were astounded by this enormous and absorbing crop. We could not avoid falling captives to the charm, strength of expression and intensity of experience that flowed from these drawings. It seems that thanks to the remarkable coming to the rescue by the children of the world, the stories of the Bible won an inspiring, artistic revival.
