Book excerpt: Visions of the future and turning into people's thoughts come naturally to Clara Quinn thanks to her inherited Quinn Sense.

Clara believes Rick is innocent, but she's not sure whether that belief comes from the Quinn Sense in her head or simply from a desire in her heart...

Book excerpt: BOOKER PRIZE WINNER • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A novel that follows a middle-aged man as he contends with a past he never much thought about—until his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance: one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present. A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single setting, The Sense of an Ending has the psychological and emotional depth and sophistication of Henry James at his best, and is a stunning achievement in Julian Barnes's oeuvre. Tony Webster thought he left his past behind as he built a life for himself, and his career has provided him with a secure retirement and an amicable relationship with his ex-wife and daughter, who now has a family of her own. But when he is presented with a mysterious legacy, he is forced to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.

Download or read book Wildness Sensation written by Rob van Ginkel and published by Maklu. This book was released on 2007 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'What's the system in the madness?' or 'What's the madness in the system?' Of course, it is a query that is - or ought to be - basic to any type of thorough ethnography and grounded theory. It is to these dimensions that the present volume is devoted. The social sciences - including anthropology - predominantly deal with order, not disorder or chaos. Social scientists tend to overlook the wild, uncivilized, transgressive and abhorrent elements of human existence, while they ought to devote systematic attention to this dimension, since it is intrinsic to the human condition, the flipside of 'civilization'. It is in various forms of radical inclusion and exclusion that sensorial sensations and experiences, language, fantasies and art play a vital role in bringing about order and disorder. Hence anthropologists should systematically devote their attention to the importance of all senses in such meaning-making acts: the total sensorial experience of the world and peoples sensitive knowledge of it. Part I, Double-edged Swords: Wildness and Civilization deals with the wild, and often horrible, sides of civilized societies and their body politic. Part II, Making Sense is concerned with material culture, embodied and sensorial experiences and particularly aisthesis and anaesthesia. The modes and manners of imagination, classification, sensitization and representation are the books common denominator and are addressed in an ethnographic, conceptual and a theoretical sense. Around this pivotal issue inspired by the seminal work of Jojada Verrips the editors have succeeded in bringing together an intriguing and thought-provoking set of articles.
