Download or read book My Los Angeles written by Edward W. Soja and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2014-03-14 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At once informative and entertaining, inspiring and challenging, My Los Angeles provides a deep understanding of urban development and change over the past forty years in Los Angeles and other city regions of the world. Once the least dense American metropolis, Los Angeles is now the country’s densest urbanized area and one of the most culturally heterogeneous cities in the world. Soja takes us through this urban metamorphosis, analyzing urban restructuring, deindustrialization and reindustrialization, the globalization of capital and labor, and the formation of an information-intensive New Economy. By examining his own evolving interpretations of Los Angeles and the debates on the so-called Los Angeles School of urban studies, Soja argues that a radical shift is taking place in the nature of the urbanization process, from the familiar metropolitan model to regional urbanization. By looking at such concepts as new regionalism, the spatial turn, the end of the metropolis era, the urbanization of suburbia, the global spread of industrial urbanism, and the transformative urban-industrialization of China, Soja offers a unique and remarkable perspective on critical urban and regional studies.

Download or read book Brand New Memory written by ElÕas Miguel MuÐoz and published by Arte Publico Press. This book was released on 1998-03-30 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gina Domingo lives in the world of southern California pop culture. Cuban-American by birth, Gina is less a multiculturalist than an omniculturalist, absorbing everything in her path. But her life with her overly-protective parents takes an unexpected turn when GinaÍs paternal grandmother, Estela, visits. Here is GinaÍs abuelawhom Gina hasnÍt seen since the family left Cubacome to set the record straight. Now GinaÍs entire range of experience, memories, and family truths begin to change. Estela doesnÍt impose her history on a family still coming to grips with its past and life in exile. Instead, she regales her granddaughter with tales of the island. When Estela unexpectedly dies while visiting the United States, Gina finds she has been bequeathed a legacy of freedom to create her own memories, her own version of the past. Like SalingerÍs Holden Caulfield, or the heroines of Joyce Carol OatesÍs Foxfire, the teenaged protagonist of Brand New Memory is possessed of a voice so simpàticaso engrossing in her perception of herself, her family, and her friendsthat we find ourselves mesmerized and unable to stop turning the pages.
Download or read book High written by Jodie Gould and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-04-28 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There may be fewer options than usual for feeling good and finding a healthy high while we’re both in recovery and in the pandemic, but they're available - even indoors and at home. Explore our universal human need to feel good, to escape, or to feel high, and examine what these altered states look like in the brain. Plus discover the six pleasure principles that can provide you the most natural and long-lasting highs. All creatures naturally seek pleasure and avoid pain. And when just feeling okay isn’t enough, people (and many animals as well) often seek or even crave something more—to feel high. For millions of years, humans have used alcohol, marijuana, and other drugs to help them feel better, elephants have sought out fermented fruit, and cats have rolled ecstatically in catnip. At the same time, people have found alternative highs without mood-altering substances, through the joy of natural activities such as play, creative expression, and bonding with others. Drawing on current research and interviews with experts and everyday people, award-winning journalist Jodie Gould explores the universal need to feel good in High: The Guilt-Free Guide to Healthy Pleasure and Escape. Through this engaging read, we explore the history of how and why people have continued to find ways to expand their consciousness and the biology of getting high, including what these altered states look like in the brain. From there we learn why some people can use mood-altering chemicals with few consequences while others struggle with addiction. At the heart of Gould’s provocative findings, she identifies six pleasure principles that show how anyone can experience the best and most lasting natural highs through the joy of: • moving and playing • connecting with other people • finding purpose and meaning • creative self-expression • celebrating milestones • and giving to others High is your guide to experiencing the greatest high of all: Life itself!

Download or read book Primates Face to Face written by Agustín Fuentes and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-01-17 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As our closest evolutionary relatives, nonhuman primates are integral elements in our mythologies, diets and scientific paradigms, yet most species now face an uncertain future through exploitation for the pet and bushmeat trades as well as progressive habitat loss. New information about disease transmission, dietary and economic linkage, and the continuing international focus on conservation and primate research have created a surge of interest in primates, and focus on the diverse interaction of human and nonhuman primates has become an important component in primatological and ethnographic studies. By examining the diverse and fascinating range of relationships between humans and other primates, and how this plays a critical role in conservation practice and programs, Primates Face to Face disseminates the information gained from the anthropological study of nonhuman primates to the wider academic and non-academic world.
