Nina had the feeling that someone was following her ever since she and Gabriella had decided to open up their design business together. She couldn't understand why someone would want to follow her but she just knew someone was by the eerie feeling she had from time to time. She was out looking at properties for their business today while Gabriella and Niko were on their honeymoon. Nina's quest was to find the perfect property to show Gabriella when she got back. The property she was looking at she called the "House of Gables". It was so unique she wanted to get a better look at the grounds around back. While looking at the back property she heard the sound of tires crunching on leaves. Like someone had pulled into the driveway. She wanted to panic, but she knew that wouldn't help, she reached for her cell phone but she had left that and her purse in her vehicle. Damn now what could she do, her Dad was right she should not have come out here alone. Why was she so stubborn and never listened to anyone? She was trapped and no way to call for help. She wondered who this person was and why was he trying to scare her. Well try or not he had definitely succeeded in scaring her half to death. More importantly would she get to see her family again!!
This book draws inspiration from Maurice Merleau-Ponty's concept of intercorporeality to offer a new, multidisciplinary perspective on the body. By drawing attention to the body's ability to simultaneously sense and be sensed, Merleau-Ponty transcends the object-subject divide and describes how bodies are about, into, and within other bodies. Such inherent relationality constitutes the essence of intercorporeality, and the chapters in this book examine such relationality from a host of diverse perspectives. The book begins with an introductory chapter in which the editors review the current research on bodily interaction, and introduce the notion of intercorporeality as a potentially integrative framework. The first section then offers four chapters devoted to clarifying theoretical and developmental perspectives on intercorporeality. Section 2 contains three chapters that provide insight on intercorporeality from evolutionary, historical, and cross-sectional perspectives. In Section 3, four chapters examine the intercorporeal nature of meaning-making during human interaction. Section 4 then presents three chapters that explore the intercorporeal nature of multi-agent interactions and the role that non-animate bodies (i.e., objects) play in such interaction. Throughout all the chapters, the authors work to integrate research in their specific discipline into the larger, transdisciplinary notion of intercorporeality. This collection provides an indisputably unique perspective on bodies-in-interaction, while simultaneously offering an interdisciplinary way forward in contemporary scholarship on bodies, meaning, and interaction.

A mountain. A blizzard. A young man new to hiking and to love, making mistakes in both. First year of college. A great time to re-invent yourself. Nathan Bartlett takes the opportunity very seriously—maybe a little too seriously. And he makes mistakes. His mistakes? Falling for a straight guy who reminds him of his beloved older brother. Getting too invested in the substance abuse disorders of two other students. And climbing a mountain in a snowstorm for all the wrong reasons. But he also develops friendships that will be his for life. He faces his inner demons and comes up with a plan. And he realizes that answers to important questions are seldom waiting on the surface but must be worked for, or struggled for, or suffered for—and sometimes all three. Nathan is a trailblazer on his own journey. His success will be measured not by how well he follows someone else's path, but by whether he can forge his own. This first book in a series of three novels gets Nathan started on a journey that will teach him about himself, about life, and about love. Walk with him.
This collection provides a kaleidoscopic view of a range of identity struggles in the workplace context. It features twenty-two case studies that present an eclectic mix of workplaces in different socio-cultural contexts. They include, among others, household workers in Peru and Hong Kong, female professionals in India and the UK, social workers in Botswana and on Canadian reserves, tourist guides in Europe and construction workers in New Zealand. The volume addresses important questions on professional competence, group membership, (sometimes competing) expectations, and identity boundaries. The chapters establish that identity struggles are a reflection of issues of knowledge, competing norms and attempts for social change.
The overall goal of the volume is to offer an extensive and qualified description of the current research that may stimulate genuine attention on Spoken communication. The volume gives updated insights on theoretical aspects, specific case studies and the issues of speech representation as well. In the first part different aspects of the cognitive and pragmatic perspectives are analyzed. An insightful account of language pathologies, multimodal spoken dialog interaction and voice expressiveness is given in part two, while sign languages, representation of intonation and automatic detection of disfluencies in speech transcriptions are investigated in the last section.
