This is the first major study of the cultural work performed by grammatica, the central discipline concerned with literacy, language, interpretation, and literature in medieval society. Grammatica was concerned with all aspects of the Latin literary text, its language, meaning, and value. Martin Irvine demonstrates that grammatica, though the first of the liberal arts, was not simply one discipline among many: it had an essentially constitutive function, defining language, meaning, and texts for the other medieval disciplines. Martin Irvine draws together several aspects of medieval culture - literary theory, the nature of literacy, education, biblical interpretation, the literary canon, and linguistic thought - in order to disclose the more far-reaching social effects of grammatica, chief of which was the making of textual culture in the medieval West. The book is based on new and previously neglected sources, many of which have been edited and translated from medieval manuscripts for the first time.

In The Poverty of Work , Van Arsdale goes inside the world of temping and discovers a type of work dreadfully insecure yet growing rapidly. Furthermore, through a comprehensive historiography, he illustrates how employment agencies moved from England to North America during the colonial period, where they sold workers into many deprived employment statuses, including indentured servitude and slavery. Van Arsdale contends that had the history of employment agencies been better understood, they would have likely been abolished with slavery, or at the very least, more tightly controlled by government. Today, left largely unregulated, employment agencies are powerful corporations generating astonishing revenue by selling flexible, on-demand temporary workers. Unfortunately, this labor is trapping millions in a cycle of unemployment, despair, and poverty.

With the number of patients living with congenital heart disease steadily increasing, relevant training in anesthesia care for these patients is becoming ever more important. Written by experts in the field, this highly illustrated book succinctly reviews the pathophysiology of congenital cardiac lesions along with important anesthetic implications for each. Case scenarios cover patients of wide-ranging ages, with a focus on care in non-cardiac operating room settings, including the general operating room, cardiac catheterization laboratory and radiology. Divided into sections corresponding to the anatomic classification of each cardiac lesion, the book includes keywords for easy cross-referencing. Several lesions have multiple scenarios presented in order to allow readers to learn how to discern more critically ill patients. The stepwise approach to understanding complex lesions provides a readily accessible guide for all anesthesia providers who care for patients with congenital heart disease. The book is also a useful tool for intraoperative teaching.

In 1980, Michel Foucault's work makes two decisive turns. On the one hand, as announced at the start of his course at the Collège de France for that year, __Le Gouvernement des vivants__, his topic will be the modalities through which power constitutes itself in relation to truth. On the other, the texts on which he will concentrate will no longer be those of the early modern period. Rather, he begins with one by Dio Cassius on the emperor Septimius Severus and then proceeds to spend the next two sessions offering a reading of __Oedipus Tyrannus__. He will concentrate on works from antiquity for the rest of his life. This book will offer the first detailed account of these lectures, examining both the development of their philosophical argument and the ancient texts on which that argument is based. This is the period during which Foucault also began work on Volumes 2 and 3 of the __History of Sexuality__. Yet, while there are clear overlaps between the work he was presenting in his course and the last books he published before his death, nonetheless the seminars are anything but rough drafts for the published work. Instead they offer a sustained encounter with the texts of the classical and early Christian era while seeking to trace a genealogy of the western subject as a speaker of truth.

When Lainey left the little farming town in Iowa on her eighteenth birthday, she thought she was finally free. She didn't have to live in fear anymore wondering which day was going to be her last. For those two years, she was able to live in peace. She'd made a new friend, was going to a school she loved, and was setting the path for her future career. That all changed with one phone call from her mother. With the push of her best friend, Randi, Lainey goes back into the town she once promised was forever in her rear-view mirror. The dark memories of her past loom around every corner, and Lainey can't seem to conquer the demons inside of her in order to fully move on. Bryce, on the other hand, had moved on. During middle school and high school, Lainey was his best friend, and it tore him apart when she left with only a note. A simple note saying good-bye and have a great life. Without his best friend around, Bryce's life quickly spiraled out of control. He got into drugs, had some trouble with the law, and found himself partying a little too hard. Sweet Annabeth brought him out of that stage in his life, and ultimately saved his life. With Lainey back in town, Bryce is at a loss at what do. She wants nothing to do with him or the town, but he is the only person who knows her full history and may be able to help her. Knowing that Lainey's a flight risk, and with one wrong move, she'd pack everything up and leave again, Bryce steps out to help her find the one thing she doesn't know she needs.

Collecting David Harvey's finest work on Paris during the second empire, Paris, Capital of Modernity offers brilliant insights ranging from the birth of consumerist spectacle on the Parisian boulevards, the creative visions of Balzac, Baudelaire and Zola, and the reactionary cultural politics of the bombastic Sacre Couer. The book is heavily illustrated and includes a number drawings, portraits and cartoons by Daumier, one of the greatest political caricaturists of the nineteenth century. From Publishers Weekly Drawing on essays written over the last 30 years, Harvey brings one of the most fascinating and confounding periods of French-or for that matter, European-history into sharp relief. He asserts that two conceptions of modernity were nurtured in Paris in the years after the First Empire-one bourgeois, and the other founded on the idea of the "social republic" geared toward benefiting all classes of citizens. Harvey traces these conflicting movements over the decades leading up to the Revolution of 1848 and charts their reverberations through the final days of the Paris Commune. The book is richly illustrated with over a hundred period photographs and cartoons by Daumier and others, which serve to reinforce the notion of Paris as a city of contrasts in a period of profound change. And Harvey is as comfortable and adept at quoting pertinent passages from the romantic novelists as he is offering detailed economic analyses of real estate and labor market dynamics. By making use of primary sources from diverse disciplines, he offers a thorough examination of the period: he explores, for instance, the role of women and class strictures and the consequences of urban planning and public transportation. The worst that can be said of this exhaustive investigation into the complicated and turbulent era of the Second Empire is that Harvey presupposes an intermediate knowledge of many of the important actors and events. As he weaves the humanities, philosophy, economics and sociology into a detailed tapestry, the author leaves remedial explanations of Parisian and French social movements to the authors listed in a well-annotated bibliography. This is not a problem in and of itself, but readers expecting a breezy history of the "City of Lights" may find themselves overwhelmed by the complexity and depth of this book. Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information, Inc. Review "'Harvey's work is notable for the sheer diversity of sources he draws on... A stunning book that will engage anyone with an interest in 19th century politics and urbanism... a definitive work on the historical geography of Paris which shows tremendous insight, forceful arguments, and above all, an obvious passion.' - Environment and Planning C: Government and Policy 'Harvey brings one of the most fascinating and confounding periods of French - or for that, European - history into sharp relief.' Publishers Weekly 'Much more than a simple narrative... [a] complex and sophisticated work.' - Library Journal 'David Harvey is perhaps the most important urban scholar writing in the English language, and here he is at his best.' - Thomas Bender, author of The Unfinished City: New York and the Metropolitan idea"

While the term 'bestseller' explicitly relates books to sales, commercially successful books are also products of individual creative work. This Element presents a new perspective on the relationship between art and the market, with particular reference to bestselling writers and books. We examine some existing perspectives on art's relationship to the marketplace to trouble persistent binaries that see the two in opposition; we break down the monolith of the marketplace by thinking of it as made up of a range of invested, non-hostile participants such as publishing personnel and readers; we articulate the material dimensions of creative writing in the industry through the words of bestselling writers themselves; and we examine how the existence of bestselling books and writers in the world of letters bears enormous influence on the industry, and on the practice of other writers.

1 online resource (i, 213 pages) In The Poverty of Work , Van Arsdale goes inside the world of temping and discovers a type of work dreadfully insecure yet growing rapidly. Furthermore, through a comprehensive historiography, he illustrates how employment agencies moved from England to North America during the colonial period, where they sold workers into many deprived employment statuses, including indentured servitude and slavery. Van Arsdale contends that had the history of employment agencies been better understood, they would have likely been abolished with slavery, or at the very least, more tightly controlled by government. Today, left largely unregulated, employment agencies are powerful corporations generating astonishing revenue by selling flexible, on-demand temporary workers. Unfortunately, this labor is trapping millions in a cycle of unemployment, despair, and poverty Includes bibliographical references and index Online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on August 23, 2016) The Poverty of Work: Selling Servant, Slave and Temporary Labor on the Free Market; Copyright; Dedication; Contents; Preface; Acknowledgements; List of Figures and Tables; 1: A Perfect Marriage: Flexible Employment Standards and the Staffing Industry; Flexible Fields, Flexible Factories; The Globalization of Flexible Employment Standards; Non-corporate Employment Agencies; Corporate Employment Agencies; Aim of the Book; Organization and Methodology; 2: Inside Employment Agency Labor: Participant Observation Experiences; Anatomy of a Corporate Employment Agency Getting Hired, Demographics, Health RisksWaiting Rooms, Dispatch Anxiety, Low-Wages; The Dawn of Virtual Waiting Rooms; Dispatch from a Corporate Employment Agency; Waiting for Work; On a Ticket; The Revolving Door; "Why Don't You Get a Job Someplace Else?"; "Catch 22": Trapped in Temping; The Paradox of Flexible Labor; The Growth of Unregulated Hiring; Dispatch from a Non-corporate Employment Agency; Temping at the Food Factory; Temping at the Plastics Factory; 3: Exchange Alley: The Origins of Employment Agencies; A Labor of Investment Capitalism Early Contradictions in At-Will Employment Relations: Registering Servants and MastersThe Privatization of Employment Agencies; Case Study: The Intelligence Office for Seamen; Growth and Competition among Intelligence Offices in London; Public Criticism of Employment Agencies in London; Adam Smith on Intelligence Offices; 4: From Slave Agency to Temporary Help: The Historical Development of Employment Agencies; The Labor Trade West of London; Marketing Racial and Ethnic Employment Statuses and the Limitation of Harriet Beecher Stowe's Theory on the Labor Trade The Rise of Benevolent Intelligence OfficesThe Anti-slavery Intelligence Office; The Emigrant Depot Intelligence Office; Selling Bridget; Trafficking Women into Brothels; From Intelligence Office to Employment Agency; The Discontents of Employment Agency Labor; From Employment Agency to Temporary Help; Misrepresenting Intelligence Offices in North American Literary Rhetoric; 5: The Poverty of Work: Shifting from Jobs that Solved Poverty to Jobs that Make It; Returning to the Contemporary Labor Trade; The Changing Nature and Provisions of Work The Production of the Idea of Work as Solution to PovertyThe Production of Poverty in Work; Selling the Unemployed as Leverage for Capital Gains; 6: Preventing the Reproduction of Deprived Employment Statuses among Temporary Laborers; The Pitfalls of Unregulated Triangular Employment Exchanges: Revising Stowe's Thesis on the Labor Trade; Solutions for Preventing Deprived Employment; Legislative Solutions; Community and Organized Labor Actions; Appendix; International Staffing Companies, Economic Overview; U.S. Staffing Companies, Economic Overview; Bibliography; Index
