Women Veterans Lifting the Veil of Invisibility

Women Veterans Lifting the Veil of Invisibility

Women who fight in wars also have to fight for their right to do so. But what are the obstacles impeding their progress in achieving equal status as both active service members and as veterans? This book written by a team of female veterans and military scholars demonstrates the ways in which women service members and veterans experience a unique set of challenges when attempting to both honorably serve their country and reintegrate into civilian society following military service. These challenges include – but are not limited to – discrimination staggering rates of suicide and barriers to obtaining treatment for military sexual trauma and other critical benefits through the U. S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Women Veterans: Lifting the Veil of Invisibility examines current service-related policies and gender in the military’s hierarchical power structure. Here a confluence of white male privilege and entitlement the culture of domination and the effeminization of the enemy manifest themselves as a backlash against women calling into question a woman’s agency and her very status as a citizen. Special attention in the book is paid to the civil-military divide representative bureaucracy and the function of the military and civilian justice systems. Moreover the need for appropriate healthcare policies and structures is examined within a ‘wicked problems’ framework. The authors conclude that the responsibility for women veterans and all veterans for that matter must become a matter of compelling government interest. This ground-breaking book is required reading for practitioners of public policy and administration with an interest in military and veterans affairs public health NGOs and activist groups as well as scholars of gender and public service public personnel management and nonprofit management. | Women Veterans Lifting the Veil of Invisibility

The Future Is Fat Theorizing Time in Relation to Body Weight and Stigma

The Future Is Fat Theorizing Time in Relation to Body Weight and Stigma

Fat bodies of today are commonly assumed to have no future at all. In this line of thinking a fat life is framed as failure and a fast track towards death itself. Meanwhile the histories of modern fat existence communities activists and artists have been essentially unknown written out of origins and existence. Most medical and cultural evaluations of fat have rendered the fat body more and more visible and yet the lived experiences of fat people are continually erased. At a moment when scholars from various disciplines are contending with the question of who has a future this book explores the relationship between fat experience and the social construction of time. The works in this volume draw from fields as diverse as social geography women and gender studies critical race theory disability studies cultural studies visual art and craft social work communication studies and queer theory generating renewed understandings of the relationship between fatness and temporality. The Future Is Fat reimagines understandings of time to allow for new expressions of fat experience. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Fat Studies: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Body Weight and Society. | The Future Is Fat Theorizing Time in Relation to Body Weight and Stigma

Group Theory for High Energy Physicists

Group Theory for High Energy Physicists

Although group theory has played a significant role in the development of various disciplines of physics there are few recent books that start from the beginning and then build on to consider applications of group theory from the point of view of high energy physicists. Group Theory for High Energy Physicists fills that role. It presents groups especially Lie groups and their characteristics in a way that is easily comprehensible to physicists. The book first introduces the concept of a group and the characteristics that are imperative for developing group theory as applied to high energy physics. It then describes group representations since matrix representations of a group are often more convenient to deal with than the abstract group itself. With a focus on continuous groups the text analyzes the root structure of important groups and obtains the weights of various representations of these groups. It also explains how symmetry principles associated with group theoretical techniques can be used to interpret experimental results and make predictions. This concise gentle introduction is accessible to undergraduate and graduate students in physics and mathematics as well as researchers in high energy physics. It shows how to apply group theory to solve high energy physics problems.

Expressive Conducting Movement and Performance Theory for Conductors

Expressive Conducting Movement and Performance Theory for Conductors

Expressive Conducting: Movement and Performance Theory for Conductors applies the insight of movement and performance theory to the practice of conducting offering a groundbreaking new approach to conducting.
