Download or read book Cruising in the Global Economy written by Christine B.N. Chin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The business of cruise tourism in recent years has commanded news media attention especially on issues of environmental pollution, passenger safety and worker rights, yet consumer interest in cruise vacations has not been adversely affected by negative publicity and it continues to grow at an average of 8-9% per annum. This unique mode of business focusing on the production and consumption of pleasure at sea and on land offers us an unprecedented opportunity to analyze the manner in which ongoing economic restructuring processes to bring about free markets in goods, services and labour can and does involve both life on land and at sea. This interdisciplinary analysis elicits an examination of states' relationship to the maritime regulatory structure governing ship ownership, management and operations, cruise lines' business strategies, development of port communities to capture cruise-related revenue, changing leisure consumption patterns and meanings, and the employment of foreign migrant workers as seafarers.

Download or read book Giants of the Seas written by Aaron Saunders and published by Seaforth Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cruise ship market is a 30 billion-dollar industry, and in 2013 it is estimated that it will carry more than 20 million passengers; nor is there any sign of a slow down in the seven percent annual growth. What keeps the passengers coming in such huge numbers isn't the food, the ports or the entertainment. They come for the magnificent floating palaces themselves, the giants of the sea.?In this new book, the author showcases the most influential cruise ships of the last three decades beginning with Royal Caribbean's ground-breaking Sovereign of the Seas. When she was launched in 1988 she was the largest passenger ship constructed since Cunard's Queen Mary entered service some 48 years earlier, and her entry into service sparked a fiercely competitive building boom that continues to this day. ??The reader is taken aboard thirty of the most spectacular ships to reveal how their innovative designs changed the landscape of modern cruising. By employing original and archival photographs, deck plans, cruise programmes, as well as the author's intimate knowledge of many of these vessels, a unique picture is built up of these great ships and it becomes clear that the true Golden Age of Cruising is not in some distant past but exists right now, and that its origins can be traced back to one ship, launched in 1988.??A truly sumptuous and fascinating book for all those drawn to the world of the modern cruise ship.??As seen in Ships Monthly Magazine

Book excerpt: "A look at the story of cruising, this book documents a whole range of onboard experiences from the interwar heyday of liner transport right through to the present age of the ship as 'floating city'. With the aid of rare archive material as well as new photography, the authors examine all aspects of international cruising - with its many national variations - both elegant and restrained, kitsch and excessive." "Cruise shows how onboard culture has evolved over the decades to suit the changing needs of the cruise lines and their passengers. It is a study of interior and exterior design, of onboard entertainment, food and changes in the dining experience, of corporate identity, ephemera and graphics. Packed with illustrations, Cruise celebrates over a century of passenger seafaring and will appeal to anyone who has travelled the high seas, or who yearns to do so."--BOOK JACKET.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Ed is constantly on the lookout for another man to have sex with. He is always rating the male body parts he sees in the locker room, and his prey is any desirable man who will look him in the eye long enough for him to get that feeling in his gut. #2 Ed’s cruising produces a physical reaction. His heart races, he feels slightly dizzy, and his hands begin to sweat. He knows and easily recognizes all the signs of sexual interest. He can’t stop until he either finds someone for sex or masturbates to orgasm. #3 Ed is a thirty-one-year-old man who has become more depressed and irritable over the past few years. He has been unable to figure out the source of his distress, and he is constantly late for appointments with friends and coworkers because he is out completing sex acts. #4 Ed, an out gay man, is fully committed to open sexual choices and experiences. He does not discuss his sexual behavior with anyone, even good friends, because he believes that no one would challenge the wisdom of his late-night exploits or the danger inherent in his brushes with the law.

Download or read book Sex Addiction written by Barry Reay and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of sex addiction took hold in the 1980s as a product of cultural anxiety. Yet, despite being essentially mythical, sex addiction has to be taken seriously as a phenomenon. Its success as a purported malady lay with its medicalization, both as a self-help movement in terms of self-diagnosis, and as a rapidly growing industry of therapists treating the new disease. The media played a role in its history, first with TV, the tabloids and the case histories of claimed celebrity victims all helping to popularize the concept, and then with the impact of the Internet. This book is a critical history of an archetypically modern sexual syndrome. Reay, Attwood and Gooder argue that this strange history of social opportunism, diagnostic amorphism, therapeutic self-interest and popular cultural endorsement is marked by an essential social conservatism: sex addiction has become a convenient term to describe disapproved sex. It is a label without explanatory force. This book will be essential reading for those interested in sexuality studies, contemporary history, psychology, psychiatry, sociology, media studies and studies of the Internet. It will also be of interest to doctors and therapists currently working in this and related fields.

Download or read book Silence is Golden written by Patricia Molloy and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the readers who have read my first book Life and Deaf published in April 2004. this new story will answer their desire to know what happened to our daughter Rosemary who became deaf at the age of two years due to an overdose of streptomycin, and her progress thereafter despite eminent specialists suggesting her only vocabulary would be "singing" and her speech would be very limited. It was always our hope and indeed our determination to see she grew up to be a happy, self-confident and friendly adult, one who would be welcomed by the rest of society as a normal, capable and totally trustworthy individual. I think this is the ideal of any parents of a disabled child. We were so very fortunate that with the teaching of her wonderful teachers at St John's School for the Deaf in Boston Spa allied to her own wonderfully straightforward resilient nature, our goal appeared to have been reached by the close of my first book. This was in spite of many early battles, which I must stress often ended in terrible tears and tantrums. The previous book closed on the day Rosemary married Steve, a day that was such a triumph for us as we heard Rosemary, who had been unable to say a single word from the age of two until she was seven, standing in Church and making her wedding vows for all to hear. This book continues the saga!

Download or read book Routledge International Handbook of Sexual Addiction written by Thaddeus Birchard and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-11 with total page 968 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of sexual addiction has gained increasing recognition in the academic and healthcare communities since the 1990s. It has also captured the attention of the media, where there has been much debate over whether it can truly be described as an addiction. What is certain is that many people struggle with out of control sexual behaviour, which takes over their lives and has harmful consequences for their relationships, careers and finances. The Routledge International Handbook of Sexual Addiction brings together a comprehensive range of perspectives on sexual addiction from a worldwide selection of scholars and therapists. It sets out to define sexual addiction and to study its causes from a range of different psychological perspectives. A series of presentations of sexual addiction are outlined, including internet sexual addiction and the relationship between paraphilias and sex addiction. The handbook considers both individual and group treatment strategies, drawing on a wide range of approaches, including cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness and 12-step programmes. The book studies sex addiction in specific populations including women, adolescents and men who have sex with men. Finally, it considers some of the alternative discourses surrounding the concept of sexual addiction. This is the first comprehensive reference book to bring together global viewpoints on advances in research, theory and practice in one volume. This handbook provides an essential guide for academics and students of psychotherapy, counselling, nursing, addiction, sexualities, social work and health and social care, as well as professionals in practice and in training working with sexual addiction and related issues.

Download or read book White written by Bret Easton Ellis and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2019-04-16 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Own it, snowflakes: you've lost everything you claim to hold dear. White is Bret Easton Ellis's first work of nonfiction. Already the bad boy of American literature, from Less Than Zero to American Psycho, Ellis has also earned the wrath of right-thinking people everywhere with his provocations on social media, and here he escalates his admonishment of received truths as expressed by today's version of "the left." Eschewing convention, he embraces views that will make many in literary and media communities cringe, as he takes aim at the relentless anti-Trump fixation, coastal elites, corporate censorship, Hollywood, identity politics, Generation Wuss, "woke" cultural watchdogs, the obfuscation of ideals once both cherished and clear, and the fugue state of American democracy. In a young century marked by hysterical correctness and obsessive fervency on both sides of an aisle that's taken on the scale of the Grand Canyon, White is a clarion call for freedom of speech and artistic freedom. "The central tension in Ellis's art—or his life, for that matter—is that while [his] aesthetic is the cool reserve of his native California, detachment over ideology, he can't stop generating heat.... He's hard-wired to break furniture."—Karen Heller, The Washington Post "Sweating with rage . . . humming with paranoia."—Anna Leszkiewicz, The Guardian "Snowflakes on both coasts in withdrawal from Rachel Maddow's nightly Kremlinology lesson can purchase a whole book to inspire paroxysms of rage . . . a veritable thirst trap for the easily microaggressed. It's all here. Rants about Trump derangement syndrome; MSNBC; #MeToo; safe spaces."—Bari Weiss, The New York Times
