Hard Looks is a fascinating examination of the new masculine imagery that has developed in relation to popular consumption over the last decade. the author skilfully investigates the development of this 'new man' imagery and its relationship to contemporary formations of masculinity and masculine culture. Focusing on the emergence in the mid-1980s of a wide range of new representations of masculinity in the retail, advertising and publishing industries, the author analyses the practices and derives used to underpin the production and circulation of this imagery. The author traces the novelty of these commercially produced representations and analyses their role in producing a space for an ambivalent masculine sexual identity. Drawing strongly on contemporary cultural theory, Hard Looks combines stimulating theoretical debates on representation and cultural identity with authoritative empirical research on the media and retail industries. This lively and innovative study will prove essential reading for sociologists interested in the study of men and masculinities and students of culture, media and gender studies.
In characteristically daring style, Anthony Burgess combines two responses to Orwell's 1984 in one book. The first is a sharp analysis: through dialogues, parodies and essays, Burgess sheds new light on what he called 'an apocalyptic codex of our worst fears', creating a critique that is literature in its own right.Part two is Burgess' own dystopic vision, written in 1978. He skewers both the present and the future, describing a state where industrial disputes and social unrest compete with overwhelming surveillance, security concerns and the dominance of technology to make life a thing to be suffered rather than lived.Together these two works form a unique guide to one of the twentieth century's most talented, imaginative and prescient writers. Several decades later, Burgess' most singular work still stands.
Sought after his entire adult life to help others achieve their workout goals, Arcaro put his weight lifting theories and routines into this manual. His “Case Studies,” true stories from his 40+ years of working out (completely natural) bring a sense of reality to the average gym-goer who just wants to get in shape, stay in shape, and most-importantly, not quit. No gimmicks, just discussion and formulas that can be tailored to any situation regardless of how long or how intensely one has been working out.
Tito was really enjoying this special daythe last day of 1999, the last day of the twentieth century. He had a great feeling about this evenings celebrations and about the new century that was only hours away. Little did he know that the greatest surprise of the evening was to have nothing to do with the special dishes that he and his wife, Pat, were planning to serve, the entertainment they were to offer during the course of this auspicious night, or the gifts that they had so carefully selected for each of their guests. You could say that Tito and Pat had been mere instruments in a larger, more complex plan not of their making. It had begun long before either of them were even born, and it would shape their lives and the lives of others in the twenty-first century. Sacramento seamlessly interlaces an engaging tale of political, historical, and religious congruence. Reviewed by Brittany Smith, US Review of Books. The book is timely and offers gentle encouragement for our troubled times. Reviewed by S. Marie Vernon, Pacific Book Review.
