The Forgotten Women of British Intelligence

The Battle That Turned World War II in the East

Burma '44

A reprint of the sold-out 2007 first edition with a new introduction, Mapping Water embraces uncharted artistic terrains.&nbsp;Tuwaletstiwa writes, “In this vast desert, a thin membrane separates the daily world and the world of spirit. This elemental landscape holds a deep reservoir of the unconscious, continually reminding me of the fragility and tenacity of life. Whether writing, painting, working with fiber, sand, or glass, I seek to embody the elusive images that emanate from the unconscious.”The first section in Mapping Water explores the etymology of the word “genesis” alongside paintings that relate (and don’t relate) to parts of the text, evoking thoughts on the “genesis” of ideas. Subsequent sections continue this exploration with content that varies from the deconstruction of an iconic Holocaust photograph to the construction of a series using feathers and bones to honor the spirit of a dead crow.

The Game Changer

This handbook covers East Asia as a region, and as individual countries. The military histories of each nation are distinct yet these peoples and states have a long history of interactions. An international team of contributors cover topics such as the People¿s liberation army, Japanese martial arts, the history of guns, and the Korean War. Divided into sections on Korea, China, Japan and East Asia, this handbook is an essential resource for anyone researching on East Asiäs military history.

The importance of East Asia has grown in recent decades as a result of the sharp rise in the region’s economic and military power. A similar increase in scholarship on the military history of East Asia now makes the time ripe for a handbook that will facilitate understanding of this critical aspect of its history and current state of relations. As a relatively recent field, East Asian military history is still somewhat uneven in scholarly coverage, making this handbook extremely useful for those attempting to engage the research.This handbook covers East Asia as a region, and as individual countries.

In this inspiring book of divine discovery, poet and seeker Arundhathi Subramaniam gives us a glimpse into the lives of four self-contained, unapologetic female spiritual travelers. “among the finest pieces of spiritual truth-telling literature I have ever read…a book to savor and celebrate”—Mirabai Starr, author of Wild Mercy and Ordinary Mysticism“As the pages turn one feels a growing sense of shared humanity, even kinship with these extraordinary practitioners of the sacred”—Tim Parks, author of&nbsp;Teach Us to Sit Still: A Skeptic’s Search for Health and HealingIn life, spiritual paths are often as unique as we are. Bringing together the voices of four women mystics walking very different spiritual paths, poet Arundhathi Subramaniam reveals the expansive potential of forging an intimate, personal connection with the divine. We'll meet these four travelers:<ul><li>Sri Annapurani Amma, who left the safety of home to follow the summons of a long-dead saint and chooses to live naked,</li><li>Balarishi Vishwashirasini, a nada yoga teacher who became a guru as a child and admits she's missed out on a real childhood,</li><li>Maa Karpoori, who needed to resist pressure to marry, and found her calling in a local yoga class and now radiates fierce independence and the contagious joy of living, and</li><li>Lata Mani, who discovered tantra after a major accident left her with a brain injury and today talks of how the spiritual life is deeply anchored in the wisdom of the body—not unlike the redwood trees of her adopted home.</li></ul>Sensitive, insightful, and lyrical, Women Who Wear Only Themselves bathes us in divine love and invites us to connect with all that sparks our spiritual fire.

Four Travelers on Their Sacred Journeys

Women Who Wear Only Themselves

Foundations in Global Studies

From the Foundations in Global Studies series, this student-friendly text presents a brief historical overview of women's status in the lead-up to the contemporary era and a brief history of women's and gender studies. Students are guided through the key concepts and the theoretical constructs that define the global context of women and gender, and and understanding of how theory meets reality. A final section uses case studies to examine theory and practice at work in particular situations across disciplines and across regions.

From the Foundations in Global Studies series, this student-friendly text follows a three-pronged approach. First, it presents foundational material that gives students the conceptual underpinnings required for rigorous analysis. This section opens with a brief historical overview of women’s status in the lead-up to the contemporary era and a brief history of women’s and gender studies. Following this, the text will then present key concepts and theoretical constructs that define the global context of women and gender, such as transnational feminisms, cultural agency, family organization, class structure, race, and ethnicity. The second part of the book examines the space where theory meets reality. It touches on such topics as the condition of women in today’s world, women’s roles in human rights and social justice movements, women and economic empowerment, international instruments and organizations dedicated to women’s issues, and the like. The third section employs case studies to examine theory and practice at work in particular situations. The case studies have been selected with an eye toward comprehensiveness of coverage across disciplines and across regions.

Genders & Sexualities in Minds & Cultures

In this landmark collection of original essays, originally published in 1989, outstanding feminist critics in Britain, France, and the United States present new perspectives on feminism and psychoanalysis, opening out deadlocked debates. The discussion ranges widely, with contributions from feminists identified with different, often opposed views on psychoanalytic criticism. The contributors reassess the history of Lacanian psychoanalysis and feminism and explore the significance of its institutional context and write against the received views on 'French feminism' and essentialism. This Classic Edition of the book features a new introduction.

Between Feminism and Psychoanalysis

"The book considers the rates and conditions of women's participation in the public sphere and explores the implications for politics, democracy, and society"--

Why women’s voices are outnumbered online and what we can do about it, by a New York Times comment moderator. If you’ve read the comments posted by readers of online news sites, you may have noticed the absence of women’s voices. Men are by far the most prolific commenters on politics and public affairs. When women do comment, they are often attacked or dismissed more than men are. In fact, the comment forums on news sites replicate conditions of the offline and social media worlds, where women are routinely interrupted, threatened, demeaned, and called wrong, unruly, disgusting, and out of place. In Digital Suffragists, Marie Tessier—a veteran journalist and a New York Times comment moderator for more than a decade—investigates why women’s voices are outnumbered online and what we can do about it. The suffragists of the early twentieth century were jailed for trying to vote. Can a twenty-first century democracy be functional when half of the population is not fully represented in a primary form of political communication? Tessier shows that for online comments, it’s a design problem: the linear blog comment formula was based on deeply gender-biased assumptions. Technologies designed with a broad range of end users in mind, she points out, are more successful and beneficial than those that reflect the designer’s own habits of mind. Tessier outlines benchmarks for a more democratic media, all of which stem from one fundamental idea: media must adopt gender and racial representation as key performance indicators. Equal speaking time for women is a measure of democracy.

Methuen Drama Play Collections

This collection brings Crothers's best plays back into the public eye, outside of archives, to prove their continued relevance to life in the 21st century. The issues raised in plays such as Susan and God (1937), Mary the Third (1923), and A Man's World (1910) concern career versus motherhood/parenthood, marriage, the double standard, generational divisions providing representations that audiences today understand and appreciate. Rachel Crothers was considered in her own time to be "the most famous woman playwright in America" (Charles E. Barnum, Sunday Morning Star). At her peak, 26 of her plays graced Broadway and touring stages, on par with Eugene O'Neill's record, and Hollywood adapted more than half of those for the silver screen, making her one of the most prominent playwrights of the early 20th century. Forgotten Broadway is the first edited collection of plays by Crothers, demonstrating her impressive accomplishments as a writer-director during one of the most important periods of Broadway history. Known by her contemporaries as an "all-around woman of the theatre" due to her double duty as a writer and practitioner, despite all her successes, her plays have fallen out of print and are rarely produced in any theatrical setting.
