Femininity and the Physically Active Woman

Femininity and the Physically Active Woman

The fitness boom of the last two decades has led to many people incorporating exercise into their lifestyles through activities such as jogging and aerobics. However whilst many physical and psychological health benefits have been documented far too few people actually take part in enough exercise to glean significant improvements and this is much more a problem for women than men. Femininity and the Physically Active Woman explores one reason many women offer for their lack of involvement in sport and exercise - that they are not the 'sporty' type. Precilla Y. L. Choi argues that the 'sporty' type is masculine and to determine how this notion might affect women's self-perceptions she critically examines the experiences of women athletes bodybuilders recreational exercisers and girls' physical education. What emerges is the importance of visible differences between women and men in terms of muscularity strength and agility in order to maintain the gender order. Thus if a girl or woman wishes to play the masculine game of sport she must do so in conformity with a number of patriarchal rules which ensure she is first and foremost recognised as a heterosexual feminine being. Contributing to a psychology of the physically active woman by examining women's experiences from critical feminist and gendered perspectives Femininity and the Physically Active Woman will be of great interest to students researchers practitioners and teachers from a range of disciplines. Precilla Y. L. Choi is the British Association for the Advancement of Science's Joseph Lister Lecturer for 2000. She has co-edited with Paula Nicolson Female Sexuality (Prentice Hall).

The Philadelphia School and the Future of Architecture

The Philadelphia School and the Future of Architecture

Flourishing from 1951 to 1965 the Philadelphia School was an architectural golden age that saw a unique convergence of city practice and education all in renewal. And it was a bringing together of architecture city and regional planning and landscape architecture education under the leadership of Dean G. Holmes Perkins. During that time at the architecture school at the University of Pennsylvania (known as the Graduate School of Fine Arts or GSFA) Louis Kahn and Robert Venturi were transforming modern architecture; Romaldo Giurgola was applying continental philosophy to architectural theory; Robert Le Ricolais was building experimental structures; Ian McHarg was questioning Western civilization and advancing urban and regional ecology; Herbert Gans was moving into Levittown; and Denise Scott Brown was forging a syncretism of European and American planning theory and discovering popular culture. And in the city Edmund Bacon was directing the most active city planning commission in the country. This book describes the history of the school the transformation of the city of Philadelphia and the philosophy of the Philadelphia School in the context of other movements of the time and looks at what the Philadelphia School has to offer to architecture today and in the future all from the point of view of a student who was there. | The Philadelphia School and the Future of Architecture

Language and Relationship in Wordsworth's Writing

Language and Relationship in Wordsworth's Writing

William Wordsworth (1770-1850) needs little introduction as the central figure in Romantic poetry and a crucial influence in the development of poetry generally. This broad-ranging survey redefines the variety of his writing by showing how it incorporates contemporary concepts of language difference and the ways in which popular and serious literature were compared and distinguished during this period. It discusses many of Wordsworth's later poems comparing his work with that of his regional contemporaries as well as major writers such as Scott. The key theme of relationship both between characters within poems and between poet and reader is explored through Wordsworth's construction of community and his use of power relationships. A serious discussion of the place of sexual feeling in his writing is also included. | Language and Relationship in Wordsworth's Writing

Historiography | Cosmography A Monograph in Honour of Professor Harjeet Singh Gill

Historiography | Cosmography A Monograph in Honour of Professor Harjeet Singh Gill

This book attempts to study Panjab historiography from the viewpoint of cosmography the concept derived from the cosmological paradigm which Professor Harjeet Singh Gill an eminent semiotician developed in his oeuvre. Since its introduction in the colonial Panjab the discipline of historiography subdued the indigenous craft of history writing such as katha qissa janamsakhi and jangnama wherein what Professor Gill has conceptualized as “the dialectic of representation and transcendence” remained ever active. This title has been co-published with Aakar Books. | Historiography | Cosmography A Monograph in Honour of Professor Harjeet Singh Gill

The Role of Subject Knowledge in the Early Years of Schooling

The Role of Subject Knowledge in the Early Years of Schooling

Originally published in 1994 the aim of the authors was to provide a comprehensive introduction to recent advances in research which had been made in learning and teaching in the early years of schooling at the time. Emphasis is placed on how subject knowledge is constructed or acquired and the organization of teaching to promote the learner’s active construction of meaning through the integration of new knowledge with existing understanding. The National Curriculum is founded in subject knowledge though little examination appears to have been made of this in terms of how subject matter is transformed into the content of teaching that young children can understand. It this remains for the teacher to develop instruction through the creation of a curriculum content and sequence which both reflects and advances the structure of existing forms of representation problem-solving and knowledge which the child brings to the school. The whole thrust of the book challenges the conventional early years ideology with its emphasis on child-centred concrete and empirical approaches to learning with a view of teaching which is concerned with making sense of children’s understanding and allowing their active construction of knowledge and information-processing to develop expertise in context. | The Role of Subject Knowledge in the Early Years of Schooling

The Spatialities of Radio Astronomy

The Spatialities of Radio Astronomy

The Spatialities of Radio Astronomy examines the multidisciplinary overlap between the spatial disciplines and the studies of science and technology through a comparative study of four of the world’s most important radio telescopes. Employing detailed analysis historical research interviews personal observations and various conceptual manoeuvres Guy Trangoš reveals the depth of spatial process active at these scientific sites and the territories they traverse. Through the conceptual frameworks of territory hyper-concentration and contingency Trangoš interprets the telescope as exploded across space and time present in multiple connected sites simultaneously and active in the production of space. He develops a historiographic and contemporary analysis of the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA Chile); the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST China); the Arecibo Observatory (Puerto Rico); and the MeerKAT/SKA (South Africa). These case studies are global exemplars of the different spatial transformations that occur through science. Their relationships to surrounding communities and landscapes reveal deeper constitutional processes embodied in each institutional and spatial form. This book spans the modern history of architecture and science the studies of science technology and society and urban theory. It is of specific interest to architects and designers expanding their analysis of spatial production scholars in the study of geography landscape science technology and astronomy and people fascinated with how these radio telescopes were conceptualised built and operate today.

Religious Division and Social Conflict The Emergence of Hindu Nationalism in Rural India

Religious Division and Social Conflict The Emergence of Hindu Nationalism in Rural India

This book is an ethnographic account of the emergence of Hindu nationalism in a tribal (adivasi) community in Chhattisgarh central India. It is argued that the successful spread of Hindu nationalism in this area is due to the involvement of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) a militant Hindu nationalist organization in local affairs. While active engagement in 'civilizing' strategies has enabled the RSS to legitimize its presence and endear itself to the local community the book argues that participation in more aggressive strategies has made it possible for this organization to fuel and attach local tensions to a broader Hindu nationalist agenda. | Religious Division and Social Conflict The Emergence of Hindu Nationalism in Rural India

He analyses both the problems besetting the centrally planned system and those that have paralysed perestroika and assesses whether the most ambitious attempt ever to reform the Soviet economy will succeed.
