Описание: On 4 July 2012, the announcement came that one of the longest-running mysteries in physics had finally been solved: the Higgs boson, the missing piece in understanding why particles have mass. On the rostrum, surrounded by jostling physicists and media, was the particle's retiring namesake - the only person in history to have an existing single particle named for them.Drawing on years of conversations with Higgs and others, Close explores how Higgs became one of the world's most important scientists. Close shows that scientific competition between people, institutions and states played as much of a role in making Higgs famous as Higgs's work itself. The Mystery of Mass is a revelatory study of both a scientist and his era, which challenges and transforms our understanding of modern physics.

'Ageing, Corporeality and Embodiment' argues that both ageing as a unitary social process and agedness as a distinct social location have become fragmented. The book concentrates on the emergence of a 'new ageing' mediated in part through the processes of 'embodiment'.
The first section provides the main theoretical context for the book, with the first chapter outlining the new 'sociology of the body' and the second outlining the emergence of new ageing and its 're-orientation' toward the body. The second section explores the relationship between new ageing and key aspects of embodied identity, namely gender, race, disability and sexuality. In each of these sections, the authors provide a brief historical perspective on the emergence of these embodied identities as social movements during the cultural ferment of the 1960s, and explore their subsequent confrontation, or avoidance of confrontation with, the issue of ageing.
The third section covers embodied practices, from sexual practice and its re-orientation toward age and ageing, to the embodied practices of 'appearance management', particularly those associated with cosmetics, clothing and fashion. Finally, the book considers 'new enhancement technologies' of the body, such as plastic surgery, with relation to ideas of 'rejuvenation'. By focusing upon those embodied practices that are oriented toward age and ageing, and their place in expressing, maintaining or recreating other 'pre-performed' identities, the work allows a more embodied understanding of ageing and its diverse engagements within society to be realised.

The largest island in the Mediterranean, Sicily has been continuously inhabited for millennia. Its strategic position and fertile soil, enriched by the fires of Mount Etna, made it alluring to successive waves of settlers and conquerors. Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, and Normans vied to stake their claim on the island. Periods of decline, exploitation, and neglect alternated with those of enlightenment and prosperity, during which the arts flourished.This book, accompanying a major 2016 exhibition at the British Museum, offers a broad survey of the island's geography and its rich mythological and historical past, while focusing on Sicily's two most artistically innovative periods. Greeks began settling on the island in the late eighth century BCE, encountering Phoenicians and other peoples. The artistic achievements of this Classical golden age include some of the most awe-inspiring temples seen anywhere in the Greek Mediterranean. A second extraordinary period of enlightenment took place under Norman rule in the twelfth century AD, when Sicily became a power broker in the Mediterranean world and one of the wealthiest and most culturally prosperous places in Europe.Richly illustrated with full-color images of more than two hundred remarkable objects drawn from the collection in the British Museum and from museums across Sicily and around the world, this book highlights the skills of artists and artisans, architects and builders--and the vision of their patrons across the centuries--who together produced some of the most unique and significant works of art in the history of the Mediterranean.
