Thirty years ago, the bestselling "letter to the government" Work in America published to national acclaim, including front-page coverage in The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and Washington Post. It sounded an alarm about worker dissatisfaction and the effects on the nation as a whole. Now, based on thirty years of research, this new book sheds light on what has changed--and what hasn't. This groundbreaking work will illuminate the new critical issues--from worker demands to the new ethical rules to the revolution in culture at work.

Описание: At the turn of the twentieth century, the US-Mexico border was home to some of the largest and most technologically advanced industrial copper mines. Mining the Borderlands argues that this was only possible because of the emergence of mining engineers - a distinct technocratic class of professionals who connected capital, labour, and expertise.

Описание: In 1942 at the beginning of the United States entry into WWII, Frank enlisted in the army and soon rose to First Lieutenant in Patton's Third Army. After grueling training in the Anti-Aircraft Artillery (A.A.A.) in the Desert Training Center, Frank shipped out to the European Theater of Operations in April 1944. He left his new wife Catherine and their newborn son John after only holding his child for an hour in the hospital. Frank wrote letters to his wife, who kept them hidden in a tin box until found in 2015 after her death. Frank's communication reveals little about the war due to security, rather more about his love and longing for home and family. As an orphan, Frank always wanted a family, and now he feared he might not return to his wife and child. Still, he had a duty to his country and was determined to fight for freedom against the Nazis. Frank's story emerges not only from his letters but from the declassified Third Army's After-Action, the 546th A.A.A. Morning Reports, and Patton's diary detailing what had happened during the battles and campaigns. Frank's letters spared Catherine the gruesome details of war; instead, he shared stories of camaraderie, the beautiful countryside, and his longing for her and his son. Lamb uses the letters to look through Frank's lens and writes as if he is telling the story, expressing feelings of happiness, sadness, frustration, anger, and love. Darling captivates the reader as if the action is happening in the present time, never knowing when it will all end.

Maggie O'Toole was the pampered daughter of a well off banker in Port Royal in the 1800's; until that fateful day she came home to find she wasn't who she thought she was. As soon as she walked in the door, the house keeper, Mrs. Harper, told her that her father wanted to see her in the study. Once she had entered and sat down, he began to tell her about her mother. He explained that he wasn't really her father; he was her mother's brother, Cyrus. He explained that when Maggie's mother arrived at his home, she had a cold and it wasn't long before it progressed into pneumonia. She was sent to a hospital and soon went into labor and eventually gave birth to Maggie. But, between the advanced pneumonia and being in labor for over two days, her health failed and she died not long after making Cyrus swear to raise Maggie as his daughter. Cyrus told her that her real father had found out about her and been granted custody. They packed up some of Maggie's possessions and took the two day train trip to Cedar Falls. That night at supper, when the hotel owner's wife was serving them, Maggie learned some people would shun her because her parents weren't married. It made her feel dirty.

Описание: For twenty years, Ireland`s economic miracle was supposed to be the envy of the world. For years, those with economic power had been investing in a gigantic property bubble. In Ship of Fools Fintan O`Toole tells the story of this dizzying rise and sickening fall. This is the essential analysis of Ireland`s economic suicide.
"For generations, American Catholics... lived out their faith through countless unremarkable routines. Deep questions of theology usually meant little to them, but parishioners clung to deeply ingrained habits of devotion, both public and private. Particular devotions changed over time, waxing or waning in popularity, but the habits endured: going to mass on Sunday, saying prayers privately and teaching their children to do the same, filling their homes with crucifixes and other religious images, participating in special services, blending the church's calendar of feast and fast days with the secular cycles of work and citizenship, negotiating their conformity (or not) to the church's demands regarding sexual behavior and even diet.... It was religious practice, carried out in daily and weekly observance, that embodied their faith, more than any abstract set of dogmas."—from the Introduction
In Habits of Devotion, four senior scholars take the measure of the central religious practices and devotions that by the middle of the twentieth century defined the "ordinary, week-to-week religion" of the majority of American Catholics. Their essays investigate prayer, devotion to Mary, confession, and the Eucharist as practiced by Catholics in the United States before and shortly after the Second Vatican Council.

Описание: Ethnographic performance has been enthusiastically embraced by qualitative researchers as a powerful way to bring a research report to life, especially in the fields of education, health and community studies, where it is being increasingly employed in research and post-graduate training.
Most accounts are of successful projects and barely acknowledge the complex problem at the heart of ethnodrama. In blending the demands of research with the aesthetic of theatre and other agendas like education or therapy, research is inevitably compromised: choices and trade-offs are constantly made. In this book, the authors explore the paradoxes of the form-and its usefulness and appeal. Five groups of researcher/performers have bravely offered their projects up for critical examination to provide case studies for the book.
