Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Eyes and Our Industries It has seemed to me, therefore, quite time that the nu necessary causes Of impaired vision, as well also as the natu ral and unavoidable ones which specially affect the mechanic and 'working classes, should be equally explained and set before those who have it in their power to control them; namely, our educational and school authorities, and those who engage any and all classes of employes in mill or work shop. While the professional or educated man, as he grows up, can, and probably will, look after himself and perhaps also his children in this respect, it is very different with those upon whom our great industries are dependent for their success, and who are the muscle and sinew of our State. These require as good, or better, eyesight, by which I mean capacity for continuous labor for many years with the visual organ, as do the educated professional or mercan tile class. A bookkeeper who has to write and compute in some large concern six or eight hours a day does not have to tax his eyes more than does the mechanic in certain depart ments of shoe manufacturing. These are unrealized and unrecognized facts which it has long been my purpose to bring before the community, and which it is the object of this article to point out and draw attention to.

Book excerpt: "Morbid and illuminating" (Entertainment Weekly)—a young mortician goes behind the scenes of her curious profession. Armed with a degree in medieval history and a flair for the macabre, Caitlin Doughty took a job at a crematory and turned morbid curiosity into her life’s work. She cared for bodies of every color, shape, and affliction, and became an intrepid explorer in the world of the dead. In this best-selling memoir, brimming with gallows humor and vivid characters, she marvels at the gruesome history of undertaking and relates her unique coming-of-age story with bold curiosity and mordant wit. By turns hilarious, dark, and uplifting, Smoke Gets in Your Eyes reveals how the fear of dying warps our society and "will make you reconsider how our culture treats the dead" (San Francisco Chronicle).

Download or read book The Bureaucracy of Beauty written by Arindam Dutta and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2006-11-06 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bureaucracy of Beauty is a wide-ranging work of cultural theory that connects literary studies, postcoloniality, the history of architecture and design, and the history and present of empire. Professor Ananya Roy of UC Berkeley calls it a "fantastic book," and in many ways this is the best description of it. The Bureaucracy of Beauty begins with nineteenth-century Britain's Department of Science and Arts, a venture organized by the Board of Trade, and how the DSA exerted a powerful influence on the growth of museums, design schools, and architecture throughout the British Empire. But this is only the book's literal subject: in a remarkable set of chapters, Dutta explores the development of international laws of intellectual property, ideas of design pedagogy, the technological distinction between craft and industry, the relation of colonial tutelage to economic policy, the politics and technology of exhibition, and competing philosophies of aesthetics. His thinking across these areas is ignited by engagements with Benjamin, Marx, Adam Smith and Jeremy Bentham, Kant, Mill, Ruskin, and Gandhi. A rich study in the history of ideas, of design and architecture, and of cultural politics, The Bureaucracy of Beauty converges on the issues of present-day globalization. From nineteenth-century Britain to twenty-first century America, The Bureaucracy of Beauty offers a theory of how things - big things -change.
