Disease Prevention and the Environmental Breast Cancer Movement

# data[].attributes.description
From the early 1980s, the U.S. environmental breast cancer movement has championed the goal of eradicating the disease by emphasizing the importance of reducingeven eliminating exposure to chemicals and toxins. From Pink to Green chronicles the movement's disease prevention philosophy from the beginning.
Challenging the broader cultural milieu of pink ribbon symbolism and breast cancer "awareness" campaigns, this movement has grown from a handful of community-based organizations into a national entity, shaping the cultural, political, and public health landscape. Much of the activists' everyday work revolves around describing how the so called "cancer industry" downplays possible environmental links to protect their political and economic interests and they demand that the public play a role in scientific, policy, and public health decision-making to build a new framework of breast cancer prevention.

From Pink to Green successfully explores the intersection between breast cancer activism and the environmental health sciences, incorporating public and scientific debates as well as policy implications to public health and environmental agendas.

Como cambiar: una perspectiva saturada por el evangelio

# data[].attributes.description
Usted no puede. Dios si puede. La vida siempre puede mejorarse en nosotros mismos, en nuestras relaciones y practicamente en todo. Pero todos nuestros audaces intentos por mejorar si es que alguna vez cambian algo son incompletos en el mejor de los casos o son absolutos fracasos en el peor de ellos. A veces son mucho peor que eso. A menos que... El evangelio de Jesucristo es la gran definicion de la vida que comienza con a menos que... tanto para quienes ya creen (pero que no pueden creer los lios en los que todavia se meten), como asi tambien aquellos que todavia no creen pero simplemente admiten que vivir como viven actualmente no los lleva con exito a ninguna parte.Redencion, escrito con la audaz intensidad de un pastor y la profunda percepcion de un consejero, permite que el lector profundice en las Escrituras y tambien en si mismo, descubriendo asi que el corazon de todos nuestros problemas es verdaderamente el problema de nuestro corazon. Sin embargo, gracias a lo que Dios ha hecho y lo que Dios puede hacer, la persona mas segura y satisfecha que haya conocido podria ser usted redimido por medio de Jesucristo. De hecho, ninguno de nosotros puede hacer lo necesario para que nuestra vida mejore, tomando lo que siempre es frustrante y convirtiendolo en algo perfectamente satisfactorio. No obstante, a pesar de que suene tan desesperante, es la absoluta verdad en que las buenas noticias cobran vida... en su vida. Asi como lo que se ha perdido puede hallarse, lo que esta mal incluso ahora puede recuperarse.You cant. God can. Life never lacks for improvementin ourselves, in our relationships, in just about everything. But all our brave stabs at getting better, if they ever change anything, are incomplete at best, complete failures at worst. Sometimes much worse. Unless . . . The gospel of Jesus Christ is the great unless of lifeboth for those who already believe (but cant believe the messes theyre still capable of making), as well as those who dont yet believe but just know their way isnt working.Recovering Redemption, written with a pastors bold intensity and a counselors discerning insight, takes you deeply into Scripture to take you deeply inside yourself, discovering that the heart of all our problems is truly the problem of our hearts. But because of what God has done, and because of what God can do, the most confident, contented person you know could actually be youredeemed through Jesus Christ. None of us, really, can do whats required to change our lives for the better, taking whats persistently frustrating and making it perfectly satisfying. Yet as hopeless as that may sound, it is the flat-line truth in which good news comes to life . . . to your life. For just as whats lost can be found, whats wrong caneven nowbe recovered.

Were a happy team at Hawthorn ... Well, happy isnt the word more like delirious. I wept, I quaffed Veuve Clicquot, I hugged grown men ... The ether was abuzz with electronic missives, the very air alive and humming with Hawthorn transmissions.

This book tracks Hawthorns triumphant 2013 season through the eyes of Phillip Taylor, Hawks tragic. A hallucinatory account of all things Hawthorn, it celebrates the sartorial splendour of the brown and gold stripes, traces the numerological power of the number 23 and reveals how Hawthorn broke its Groundhog Day disorder against Geelong.

These days, there are more television hours spent analysing the AFL each week than there is actual game time. This book doesnt dwell on the kicks, corkies, handballs or hard-ball gets. Rather, it traces Hawthorns dramatic and eventful season from the fans perspective, giving voice to the excitement, exasperation and ultimately exhilaration that all Hawks supporters felt.

From the public bar to the members pocket at the MCG, this is the definitive record of Hawthorns 2013 premiership campaign, celebrating the AFLs latest (brown and) golden era.

Phillip Taylor has supported Hawthorn for 45 years, picking the brown-and-gold jumper out of a line-up at a sports store in 1969 a decision that not only attests to his heightened sense of fashion, but also proved somewhat prescient. He was at the MCG in 1971 when the Hawks won the premiership, and has now seen Hawthorn compete in 15 Grand Finals, winning 10 of them. He blogs about Hawthorn at www.hfctwenty3.blogspot.com.au.

Up from the Mission charts the life and thought of Noel Pearson, from his early days as a native title lawyer to his position today as one of Australias most influential figures.

This is writing of great passion and power, which introduces a fascinating man and a compelling writer. Many of the pieces included have been hard to find until now. Gathered together in a cohesive, broad-ranging book, they show a key Australian thinker coming into being.

Pearson evokes his early life in Hope Vale, Queensland. He includes sections of his epoch-making essay Our Right To Take Responsibility, which exposed the trap of passive welfare and proposed new ways forward. There are pieces on the apology; on Barack Obama and black leadership; on Australian party politics Keating, Howard and Rudd; and on alcoholism, despair and what can be done to mend Aboriginal communities that have fallen apart.

Up from the Mission is among the most relentless and exciting work I have read in recent years ... Pearsons analysis is blisteringly compelling Waleed Aly, Sunday Age

Pearson is a master of the essay as a literary form ... [Up from the Mission] is a serious contribution to Australian letters Peter Sutton, Monthly

Noel Pearson is the best political and social essayist in the country Michael Gawenda, Crikey

Noel Pearson is, I suspect, an historic figure ... Up From the Mission is the most engaging book on Australian politics I have read since Mark Lathams diaries. Martin Flanagan, the Age

A powerhouse of a book Jon Altman, Australian Book Review

Noel Pearson is the most influential intellectual in Australia John Hirst, Australian Literary Review

Noel Pearson is a lawyer and activist, and the founder of the Cape York Institute for Policy and Leadership. He is the author of Up from the Mission and two acclaimed Quarterly Essays, Radical Hope and A Rightful Place.

Teaching Character in the Primary Classroom

# data[].attributes.description
"Teaching Character in the Primary Classroom provides an excellent and very accessible overview of the emerging field of character education. It covers, in detail, the theory of character education as well as advice and guidance about how this should be applied in practice in primary schools."

Professor James Arthur, University of Birmingham

Character matters.

As more and more schools are choosing to teach Character Education, trainee and beginning teachers need to know more. What is Character Education? Can it really be taught? How does childrens learning benefit from discussions around character in the classroom? How do I teach it? What does good teaching of Character Education look like in the classroom?

Teaching Character Education in Primary schools tackles these questions, and many more. This is a practical guide to why and how we can teach character in primary schools. It begins by exploring why character matters and considers what character is and (importantly) what it is not. It goes on to discuss the place for teaching character in primary education and includes practical guidance on how it can be taught. The text also looks at character beyond the classroom, how parents and the wider community can be included in the teaching of character and how outdoor learning and education can contribute.

This book is written for all those who are new to teaching character.

Literarkritische und redaktionsgeschichtliche Untersuchungen zur Entstehung von Gen 3750

# data[].attributes.description
Die Arbeit rekonstruiert mit den Methoden der Redaktionsgeschichte die literarische Entstehung der Josefsgeschichte (Gen 3750) und fragt in diesem Zusammenhang auch nach ihrer Funktion als Fortfuhrung der Vatererzahlungen bzw. als Hinfuhrung zum Exodus. Dabei wird versucht, sich weitestgehend von Vorannahmen bzw. ubergeordneten Modellen zu losen und stattdessen von einer erneuten Analyse der Einzeltexte auszugehen. Im Ergebnis zeigt sich, dass die Josefsgeschichte sukzessive zu ihrer heutigen Gestalt angewachsen ist. Bereits der alteste Bestand (Gen 37 41*) durfte vor dem Hintergrund der Vatergeschichte (Gen 1236*) zu verstehen sein, wohingegen eine Verbindung mit dem Exodus erst sekundar, aber noch vor der Einfugung des priesterschriftlichen Materials, mit dem Aufbruch Israels nach Agypten (Gen 45ff) erfolgt sein wird.

It has been widely assumed that Heschel's writings are poetic inspirations devoid of philosophical analysis and unresponsive to the evil of the Holocaust. Who Is Man? (1965) contains a detailed phenomenological analyis of man and being which is directed at the main work of Martin Heidegger found primarily in Being and Time (1927) and Letter on Humanism (1946). When the analysis of Who Is Man? is unapacked in the light of these associations it is clear that Heschel rejected poetry and metaphor as a means of theological elucidation, that he offered a profound examination of the Holocaust and that the major thrust of his thinking eschews Heidegerrian deconstruction and the postmodernism that ensued in its phenomenological wake. Who Is Man? contains direct and indirect criticisms of Heidegger's notions of 'Dasein', 'thrownness', 'facticity' and 'submission' to name a few essential Heideggerian concepts. In using his ontological connective method in opposition to Heidegger's 'ontological difference', Heschel makes the argument that the biblical notion of Adam as a being open to transcendence stands in oppostion to the philosophical tradition from Parmenides to Heidegger and is the only basis for a redemptive view of humanity.

The series Applications of Cognitive Linguistics (ACL) welcomes book proposals from any domain where the theoretical insights developed in Cognitive Linguistics (CL) have been (or could be) fruitfully applied. In the past thirty-five years, the CL movement has articulated a rich and satisfying view of language around a small number of foundational principles.  The first one argues that language faculties do not constitute a separate module of cognition, but emerge as specialized uses of more general cognitive abilities. The second principle emphasises the symbolic function of language. The grammar of individual languages (including the lexicon, morphology, and syntax) can be exclusively described as a structured inventory of conventionalized symbolic units. The third principle states that meaning is equated with conceptualization. It is subjective, anthropomorphic, and crucially incorporates humans' experience with their bodies and the world around them. Finally, CL's Usage-Based conception anchorsthe meaning of linguistic expressions in the rich soil of their social usage. Consequently, usage-related issues such as frequency and entrenchment contribute to their semantic import.  Taken together, these principles provide researchers in different academic fields with a powerful theoretical framework for the investigation of linguistic issues in the specific context of their particular disciplines. The primary focus of ACL is to serve as a high level forum for the result of these investigations.  To discuss your book idea or submit a proposal, please contact Odelia Ahdout

Seit dem Entstehen der modernen Textlinguistik in den 1960er Jahren ist eine Vielzahl z.T. hoch spezialisierter Analyseansatze in diesem Bereich entwickelt worden, die auch in diversen Einfuhrungen schon aufbereitet worden sind. Anliegen dieses Arbeitsheftes ist es, Grundlagen linguistischer Textanalyse vorzustellen, wie sie insbesondere Studierende philologischer Facher bei der Analyse literarischer und anspruchsvoller Sachtexte benotigen. Textlinguistik wird dabei nicht als eine Sonderdisziplin der Sprachwissenschaft aufgefasst, die sich nur mit der obersten Beschreibungsebene befasst, sondern im Sinne der von Peter Hartmann konzipierten verwendungsorientierten Sprachwissenschaft. Besonderer Wert wird darauf gelegt, die neue Textlinguistik auch in die Tradition fruherer Bemuhungen um den Gegenstand einzuordnen (Rhetorik, Hermeneutik, Literaturwissenschaft, vorstrukturalistische Grammatik). Das Schwergewicht der Darstellung liegt auf der mit vielen Beispielen angereicherten Erlauterung der vier zentralen Beschreibungsdimensionen: situativer Kontext, Funktion, Thema, sprachliche Gestalt. Hier werden nicht nur die den Textzusammenhalt gewahrleistenden Kohasionsmittel besprochen, sondern die Gesamtheit der sprachlichen Mittel, v.a. auf der Ebene von Lexik und Grammatik. Ziel ist es, die Verbindung zwischen Variationslinguistik und Textlinguistik zu verdeutlichen: Zu den Aufgaben der Letzteren gehort es, die Soll- und Ist-Normen von Varietaten und Textsorten zu beschreiben.
