Doctors of Another Calling : Physicians Who Are Known Best in Fields Other than Medicine (9781611495973)

The medical profession is rich in those who have made names for themselves outside of medicine. The fields of literature, exploration, business, sport, entertainment, and beyond abound with doctors whose interests lie outside medicine. This book, largely written by members of the medical profession, examines the efforts of doctors in non-medical fields. The doctors discussed here are those who are, or were, well-known to the public for their contributions to their non-medical fields of choice. In many cases, the public may have been unaware that a subject was medically qualified.

Max Weber-Gesamtausgabe : Band II/9: Briefe 1915-1917 (9783161494826)

In dem nun vorgelegten Briefband 1915 bis 1917, mit uber 400 Briefen, nehmen Max Webers kritische Betrachtungen zur deutschen Kriegsfuhrung eine zentrale Stellung ein. Er wendet sich gegen die Annexionspolitik und den "verscharften U-Boot-Krieg" und befurchtet mit dem Eintritt der Vereinigten Staaten in den Krieg die deutsche Niederlage. Seine Hoffnungen richten sich auf einen Verstandigungsfrieden, der die Stellung Deutschlands als einer Weltmacht sichert, und auf eine Parlamentarisierung der Regierung. Die Briefe erganzen die bereits edierten Schriften und Reden "Zur Politik im Weltkrieg" (MWG I/15) und lassen Ansichten Webers vielfach noch deutlicher erkennen. Nach der Beendigung seines Militardienstes in der Heidelberg Lazarettverwaltung bemuhte sich Weber um politischen Einfluss. Es gelang ihm nicht, eine amtliche Verwendung beim Generalgouvernement in Brussel und bei Regierungsstellen in Berlin zu erhalten. Er zog sich zuruck auf publizistische Interventionen

Tradition as Truth and Communication : A Cognitive Description of Traditional Discourse (9780521374170)

Tradition is a central concept in the social sciences, but it is commonly treated as unproblematic. Dr Boyer insists that social anthropology requires a theory of tradition, its constitution and transmission. He treats tradition 'as a type of interaction which results in the repetition which results in the repetition of certain communicative events', and therefore as a form of social action. Tradition as Truth and Communication deals particularly with oral communication and focuses on the privileged role of licensed speakers and the ritual contexts in which certain aspects of tradition are characteristically transmitted. Drawing on cognitive psychology, Dr Boyer proposes a set of general hypotheses to be tested by ethnographic field research. He has opened up an important new field for investigation within social anthropology. Product details Format

The Steinway Hunter : A Memoir (9781733767002)

"Every piano has a story to tell. And Bob Friedman has been chasing pianos and the stories behind them for decades!" -Jon Regen Editor, Keyboard Magazine "The average life span of a piano is about seventy-five to one hundred years. If a piano could talk, what would it say? What has it witnessed in its lifetime? Whose fingers have played it? How many times has someone played 'Happy Birthday' on it? How many children have learned to love music through its ivory keys? Has it been neglected in a cold, dark, damp basement for the last fifty years, or has it graced the stage of one of the world's most prestigious concert halls? In this book, Bob gives a voice to some of those pianos and we learn the answer to some of those questions." -Joe Ross Founder, PianoMart.com Piano Technicians Guild Registered Piano Technician "Bob Friedman's legacy as the Steinway Hunter has no doubt connected more Steinways with more people than anyone else.

Gross Anatomy (9780008292720)

`Here is a book that will set you free, wake you up, and get you on your own team.' Chelsea Handler `I love how Gross Anatomy delightfully reveals Mara Altman's upbeat and life-affirming obsession with the human body - our loveliness and not-so-lovelinesses.' Jon Ronson From the hilarious Mara Altman, Gross Anatomy unapologetically explores the beautiful, and sometimes not so beautiful, aspects of our bodies, and why they're worth loving anyway. From hairy chins to braless outings, lice-infestations to PMS, no body part is left undiscussed as Altman takes the reader on a wild journey from head to toe, recounting experiences most of us are too polite to share.

Through a combination of personal anecdotes and fascinating research, Mara Altman proves herself as a fearless and thoroughly charming writer, creating one of the most compulsive feminist reads of the year.
