Fitzgerald, "Puritans Behaving Badly: Gender, Punishment, and Religion in Early America" English | ISBN: 1108478786 | 2020 | 186 pages | PDF | 7 MB Tracing the first three generations in Puritan New England, this book explores changes in language, gender expectations, and religious identities for men and women. The book argues that laypeople shaped gender conventions by challenging the ideas of ministers and rectifying more traditional ideas of masculinity and femininity. Although Puritan's emphasis on spiritual equality had the opportunity to radically alter gender roles, in daily practice laymen censured men and women differently - punishing men for public behavior that threatened the peace of their communities, and women for private sins that allegedly revealed their spiritual corruption. In order to retain their public masculine identity, men altered the original mission of Puritanism, infusing gender into the construction of religious ideas about public service, the creation of the individual, and the gendering of separate spheres. With these practices, Puritans transformed their 'errand into the wilderness' and the normative Puritan became female. ![]() Jeremy Road, Pearce Wilcox, "Pulmonary Function Tests in Clinical Practice" English | 2009 | pages: 285 | ISBN: 1848822308, 3319936514 | PDF | 3,5 mb Spirometry.- Lung Volumes.- Gas Transfer.- Bronchial Challenge Testing.- Respiratory Muscle Function & Other Pulmonary Function Studies.- Approach to PFT Interpretation.- Illustrative Cases on PFT.- Arterial Blood Gas Interpretation.- Exercise Testing.- Diagnostic Tests for Sleep Disorders. ![]() Robert P.

The book elucidates contemporary developments in psychoanalytic thinking about sexuality from a post-heteronormative standpoint, including an examination of how heteronormative bias has relegated lived sexual experience to the sidelines. The book challenges this bias and introduces new ways of using psychoanalytic ideas as well as illustrating their relevance to clinical practice. Drawing on vignettes, the authors describe current challenges that clinicians face and discuss the dilemmas that these challenges present, both for qualified clinicians as well as those in training. ![]() Psychoanalysis Under Nazi Occupation: The Origins, Impact and Influence of the Berlin Institute By Laura Sokolowsky 2021 | 266 Pages | ISBN: 1032105186 | PDF | 6 MB Laura Sokolowsky's survey of psychoanalysis under Weimar and Nazism explores how the paradigm of a 'psychoanalysis for all' became untenable as the Nazis rose to power. Mainly discussing the evolution of the Berlin Institute during the period between Freud's creation of free psychoanalytic centres after the founding of the Weimar Republic and the Nazi seizure of power in 1933, the book explores the ideal of making psychoanalysis available to the population of a shattered country after World War I, and charts how the Institute later came under Nazi control following the segregation and dismissal of Jewish colleagues in the late 1930s. The book shows how Freudian standards resisted the medicalisation of psychoanalysis for purposes of adaptation and normalisation, but also follows Freud's distinction between sacrifice (where you know what you have given up) and concession (an abandonment of position through compromise) to demonstrate how German psychoanalysts put themselves at the service of the fascist master, in the hope of obtaining official recognition and material rewards. Discussing the relations of psychoanalysis with politics and ethics, as well as the origin of the Lacanian movement as a response to the institutionalisation of psychoanalysis during the Nazi occupation, this book is fascinating reading for scholars and practitioners of psychoanalysis working today. ![]() Provincializing Empire: Omi Merchants in the Japanese Transpacific Diaspora (Asia Pacific Modern, v. 18) by Jun Uchida 2023 | ISBN: 0520390113 | English | 378 pages | PDF | 39 MB Provincializing Empire explores the global history of Japanese expansion through a regional lens. It rethinks the nation-centered geography and chronology of empire by uncovering the pivotal role of expeditionary merchants from Ōmi (present-day Shiga Prefecture) and their modern successors. Tracing their lives from the early modern era, and writing them into the global histories of empire, diaspora, and capitalism, Jun Uchida offers an innovative analysis of expansion through a story previously untold: how the nation's provincials built on their traditions to create a transpacific diaspora that stretched from Seoul to Vancouver, while helping shape the modern world of transoceanic exchange. |
