Stupid TV, Be More Funny - Alan Siegel

This comprehensive account of the meteoric rise of The Simpsons combines incisive pop culture criticism and interviews with the show s creative team that take readers inside the making of an American phenomenon during its most influential decade, the 1990s.The Simpsons is an American institution. But its status as an occasionally sharp yet ultimately safe sitcom that s still going after 33 years on the air undercuts its revolutionary origins. The early years of the animated series didn t just impact Hollywood, they changed popular culture. It wasn t a watercooler show; it was a show that altered the way we talked around the watercooler, in school hallways, and on the campaign trail, by bridging generations with its comedic sensibility and prescient cultural commentary.In STUPID TV, BE MORE FUNNY, writer Alan Siegel reveals how the first decade of the show laid the groundwork for the series true influence. He explores how the show s rise from 1990 to 1998 intertwined with the supposedly ascendent post-Cold War America, turning Fox into the juggernaut we know today, simultaneously shaking its head at America s culture wars while finding itself in the middle of them. By packing the book with anecdotes from icons like Conan O Brien and Yeardley Smith, Siegel also provides readers with an unparalleled look inside the making of the show.Through interviews with the show s legendary staff and whip-smart analysis, Siegel charts how The Simpsons developed its singular sensibility throughout the 90s, one that was at once groundbreakingly subversive for a primetime cartoon and shocking wholesome. The result is a definitive history of The Simpsons most essential decade.

Forensic Crime Fiction - Aliki Varvogli

This study of forensic crime fiction from the US and the UK examines the prominent roles that women play in many of these novels, arguing that there are historical continuities with earlier forms of contact with the dead body. Refuting claims that the female forensic examiner exhibits traits of typically masculine behaviour, it suggests that the female gaze humanises the victims of crime and alters their representations. Utilising the views of a world-famous forensic scientist interviewed for this Element, this study also explores the role and treatment of science in forensic crime fiction, shedding light on an area of the genre. Finally, there is a consideration of killers in forensic crime novels, proposing that the relationship between killer and investigator is different from that of the classic crime novel. There are also two Appendices containing interviews with Professor Niamh Nic Daeid and with Val McDermid.

Still Life with Bones: A forensic quest for justice among Latin Americaâ

ONE OF THE NEW YORKER S BEST BOOKS OF 2023 SO FARCHOSEN BY FINANCIAL TIMES READERS FOR BEST BOOKS OF 2023A NEW YORK TIMES BOOKS EDITOR S CHOICE Has the makings of a classic. -The TLS Chilling and vital. . . sensitive and thought-provoking. - The Times Exhumation can divide brothers and restore fathers, open old wounds and open the possibility of regeneration-of building something new with the pile of broken mirrors that is loss and mourning. In this haunting and poetic account, anthropologist Alexa Hagerty joins forensic teams and families of the missing as they search for the hundreds of thousands victims of genocidal violence unleashed by authoritarian governments in Latin America.In Guatemala and Argentina, she learns to see the dead body with a forensic eye. She examines bones for evidence of torture and cause of death - hands bound by rope, cuts from machetes - but also for signs of a life lived: a weaver is recognized from the tiny bones of the toes, molded by years of kneeling before a loom; a girl is identified alongside her pet dog. Hagerty shows us how exhumation can bring meaning to families dealing with unimaginable loss and justice to societies in the aftermath of state terror and genocide. Weaving together powerful stories about investigative breakthroughs, grieving families, histories of violence, and her own forensic coming of age, Hagerty crafts a moving portrait of the living and the dead. Touching, but achingly honest - a most amazing account of training as a forensic anthropologist. When Hagerty talks about lives being violently made into bones, I defy you not to be moved. The text is unflinching, but then the crimes and the victims deserve nothing less. I guarantee this will make you think long and hard about cruelty and human rights and the dedication and humanity of the forensic scientist. - Sue Black, author of All That remains Essential reading as a human. - Alex Marzano-Lesnevich, author of Fact of a Body

Všímavý terapeut - Daniel J. Siegel

Z nejnovějších vědeckých výzkumů vyplývá, že nejdůležitějšími faktory, jež mohou přispět ke klientovu uzdravení, jsou terapeutova přítomnost a styl, jakým komunikuje s klientem. Obětavost, účast a soucit terapeuta, který zůstává všímavý ke svému já – a ke vztahu mezi tímto já a klientem – mohou mít na průběh terapie skutečně zásadní vliv.Kniha Všímavý terapeut podrobně objasňuje pojem „všímavost“ a ukazuje, jak lze tuto vlastnost pěstovat v terapeutických vztazích (a nejen v nich). Kniha je psána osobitým stylem – autor se v ní obrací přímo ke čtenáři jako kolegovi v neformální, a přesto do hloubky vedené diskusi o mysli, mozku a mezilidských vztazích.Své tvrzení, že příznivý výsledek psychoterapie závisí na přítomném bytí terapeuta jako lidské bytosti, dokládá Siegel vědeckými důkazy a nabízí prožitkové techniky sloužící ke kultivaci tzv. všímavé přítomnosti. Cvičení popsaná v této knize rozvíjejí „vnitřní zrak“ – schopnost vnímat a ovlivňovat tok energie a informací v sobě i mezi námi. A vnitřní nazírání podporuje integraci, všímavou přítomnost a vztahovou empatii – klíčové aspekty každé úspěšné terapie.Všímavý terapeut pomůže začínajícím i zkušeným klinickým pracovníkům lépe porozumět mechanismům interakce mezi myslí a mozkem a ukáže jim, jak chaos a rigiditu proměnit v integraci a harmonii.

The society enjoys moderate success in the back room of their local pub, The Half Moon, with other enthusiasts drawn to the initial promise of the weekly gathering.However, as the club gains popularity, its founderâ ™s uncompromising dogma results in a schism within the movement and soon a counter group forms. Then the arrival of a young woman called Alice further fractures the unity of the vulnerable society. As rifts are forged and gulfs widen, Magnus Mills examines the surreal nature of ordinary lives. The master of the comic deadpan returns for his ninth novel, a spectacularly disingenuous exploration of power, fanaticism and really, really good records.

Why Rebel - Jay Griffiths

If bravery itself could write, it would write like she does John BergerWhy rebel?Because our footprint on the Earth has never mattered more than now. How we treat it, in the spirit of gift or of theft, has never been more important.Because we need a politics of kindness, but the very opposite is on the rise. Libertarian fascism, with its triumphal brutalism, its racism and misogyny - a politics that loathes the living world.Because nature is not a hobby. It is the life on which we depend, as Indigenous societies have never forgotten.Only when it is dark enough can you see the stars, and they are lining up now to write rebellion across the skies.From the author of Wild, this passionate, poetic manifesto for urgent rebellion is also a paean to the deep and extraordinary beauty of the natural world.â ˜Jay Griffiths helped redefine activism for a generation, combining detailed research with a poetâ ™s flair for language. Her works defy categorisation and fizz with original ideas and excitementâ ™ Byline Times Jay s writing has reduced me to hot throbs of grief; through beauty and subtlety, to the depths of the hurt of these times . . . and what a liberation to express this, to free the space in my chest to feel the love that propels me forwards Gail Bradbrook Chewy, erudite, filled with swing: this is a dazzling book, urgent without ever being worthy, a book that crackles. Why Rebel is a Tardis, to read it is to enter the massive, a deep interior that hydrates vocation in a time of trouble Martin Shaw This short book is beautifully written, and packs a powerful emotional punch. I found myself welling up as I reached the end. At this desperate moment in human history, Why Rebel is surely part of the wake-up call we need Prof. Rupert Read There s a book called Life and Fate and in it, it says that when surrounded by death and destruction the most human thing to do is to engage in an act of kindness. Jay s book is such an act Roger Hallam

How Animals Heal Us - Jay Griffiths

rom celebrated author Jay Griffiths comes a unique and heartfelt insight into the healing nature of our relationship with animalsPet-owners and animal-lovers instinctively know that animals heal. This book offers the evidence, drawing widely on scientific discoveries, history, and Indigenous knowledge. We meet a pot-bellied pig who saved her owner s life, lions who guarded a girl from kidnappers, dolphins and whales rescuing people in danger, and dogs who can smell cancer and phone the Emergency Services.Animal sounds, from insects to birdsong and the purring of cats, are directly medicinal and their presence can heal the pain of loneliness. Animals, including donkeys, can be natural therapists for the hurt psyche, alleviating trauma, fear and depression. In this original, revelatory and exuberant book, Jay Griffiths explores how animals can have a role in every level of healing, from the individual to the collective, guiding us in how we might create societies that are healthier, fairer and kinder.Wolves may be teachers of ethics; monkeys and dogs can object to unfairness and bees take collective decisions. Animals are irresistible medicine for a healthy culture, animating the arts with spectacular vitality and verve, as poetry knows. Open-hearted, playful and wise, How Animals Heal Us puts animals at the heart of a restorative vision of health.

A Framework for K-12 Science Education - National Research Council, Board on Science Education, Division of Behavioral and Social Sciences and Educati

Science, engineering, and technology permeate nearly every facet of modern life and hold the key to solving many of humanity s most pressing current and future challenges. The United States position in the global economy is declining, in part because U.S. workers lack fundamental knowledge in these fields. To address the critical issues of U.S. competitiveness and to better prepare the workforce, A Framework for K-12 Science Education proposes a new approach to K-12 science education that will capture students interest and provide them with the necessary foundational knowledge in the field. A Framework for K-12 Science Education outlines a broad set of expectations for students in science and engineering in grades K-12. These expectations will inform the development of new standards for K-12 science education and, subsequently, revisions to curriculum, instruction, assessment, and professional development for educators. This book identifies three dimensions that convey the core ideas and practices around which science and engineering education in these grades should be built. These three dimensions are: crosscutting concepts that unify the study of science through their common application across science and engineering; scientific and engineering practices; and disciplinary core ideas in the physical sciences, life sciences, and earth and space sciences and for engineering, technology, and the applications of science. The overarching goal is for all high school graduates to have sufficient knowledge of science and engineering to engage in public discussions on science-related issues, be careful consumers of scientific and technical information, and enter the careers of their choice. A Framework for K-12 Science Education is the first step in a process that can inform state-level decisions and achieve a research-grounded basis for improving science instruction and learning across the country. The book will guide standards developers, teachers, curriculum designers, assessment developers, state and district science administrators, and educators who teach science in informal environments.
