Download or read book Bizarre Privileged Items in the Universe written by Paul North and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-03-09 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An imaginative new theory of likeness that ranges widely across history and subjects, from physics and evolution to psychology, language, and art A butterfly is like another butterfly. A butterfly is also like a leaf and at the same time like a paper airplane, an owl’s face, a scholar flying from book to book. The most disparate things approach one another in a butterfly, the sort of dense nodule of likeness that Roger Caillois once proposed calling a “bizarre-privileged item.” In response, critical theorist Paul North proposes a spiritual exercise: imagine a universe made up solely of likenesses. There are no things, only traits acting according to the law of series, here and there a thick overlap that appears “bizarre.” Centuries of thought have fixated on the concept of difference. This book offers a theory that begins from likeness, where, at any instant, a vast array of series proliferates and remote regions come into contact. Bizarre-Privileged Items in the Universe follows likenesses as they traverse physics and the physical universe; evolution and evolutionary theory; psychology and the psyche; sociality, language, and art. Divergent sources from an eccentric history help give shape to a new trans-science, “homeotics.”
Download or read book Privileged Children written by Frances Vernon and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2014-09-18 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Privileged Children, first published in 1982, was the brilliant debut fiction by the prodigiously gifted Frances Vernon (1963-1991), which earned her the Author's Club Award for Best First Novel. When Diana Molloy dies in 1912 she leaves a curious inheritance to her 14-year-old daughter Alice - her collection of books, and a lasting attachment to her mother's bohemian friends. The self-possessed young Alice is dismayed, therefore, to be packed off to live with a rural clergyman uncle. But it's not long before she contrives an escape back to her beloved Bloomsbury, and the opportunity to forge her own way in the world. 'Saucy and daring... here is genuine sparkle and invention.' Daily Express 'Highly enjoyable' Jenny Uglow, TLS

In an exclusive all girls' secondary school, they become friends. They choose the same university, and through smoke-filled nights, lectures, sexual encounters and first loves, their bond deepens: a friendship which seems like it will last for evermore. But then, at an end-of-year party, something happens which changes everything ... Afterwards, they drift apart. Now Stella, a lawyer in New York, lives for her work; Laura, a struggling journalist in Dublin, is still waiting for the scoop to kick-start her career; while Amanda, broken and beautiful, lives a life of slow decay in London. Then the phone call comes which brings them back together, to the friendship they swore would last, and the night when it all went wrong.

Book excerpt: Joe and Mary Christianson have tried to become parents, but each attempt meets with failure, frustration, and tears. Looking for a fresh start, the couple leaves Philadelphia and selects Bethlehem as their new home. The Christiansons are pleased to discover that an old friend of Joe's, Dr. Benjamin Gabriel, is a successful fertility doctor in town, and they seek his help to start the family they've dreamed of. Dr. Gabriel accepts Joe and Mary as patients, but they have no idea they have now become part of the Bethlehem Project, a secret, government-sponsored research initiative that is working to manipulate genetics. Doctors are able to enhance a child's physical and mental abilities in order to create superior humans to participate in special missions. It's a project they hope to keep under wraps. But as their children age, the Christiansons become suspicious. "Genetically Privileged" is the first in a series of works that explores the consequences of genetic enhancement and what it means to parents, the children, and the world.
Download or read book The Privileged Few written by Clive Hamilton and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-05-09 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Male and white privilege are on the decline, yet elite privilege has gone from strength to strength. The privileges enjoyed by the rich and powerful are not only unfair but cause widespread harm, from the everyday slights and humiliations visited on those lower down the scale to the distortions in the labour market when elites use their networks to secure plum jobs, not least in new domains such as professional sports. In this book, Clive Hamilton and Myra Hamilton show that elite privilege is not a mere by-product of wealth but an organising principle for society as a whole. They explore the practices and processes that sustain, legitimise and reproduce elite privilege and show how we are all implicated in the system, both facilitating it and tolerating its harmful effects. Building on their original fieldwork and a wide range of other sources, the authors paint a vivid picture of the micropolitics of elite privilege, highlighting in particular the vital role played by exclusive private schools. Ranging across topics as diverse as ‘glamour suburbs’, philanthropy, Rhodes scholarships and super-yachts, The Privileged Few delves beneath attempts at concealment to expose how the elites keep getting away with it.
