Book Description
Lonnie H. Athens’ path-breaking work examines a problem that has baffled experts and the general public alike: How does a person become a predatory violent criminal? In the original edition, the process that Athens labeled “violentization” encompassed four stages: brutalization, defiance, dominative engagements, and virulency. In this edition, Athens identifies a new final stage, violent predation, as the culmination of the violent criminal’s development. He uses vivid first-person accounts gleaned from in-depth interviews and participant observation of nascent and hardened violent criminals to back up his theory. In this vastly expanded edition, Athens examines how his thinking and ideas have evolved over the past thirty years and renames and clarifies two stages of development. Athens also addresses, for the first time, criticisms of his original theory. Milestones of this important work are discussed, as well as the paradoxes surrounding its present-day status in the field of criminology. Athens proposes a revised theoretical model that will be useful for classroom use, as well as for interested general readers and professionals.

Sensing the World
Author : David Le Breton

Category : Social Science
ISBN : 1000183394
Book Description
Sensing the World: An Anthropology of the Senses is a highly original and comprehensive overview of the anthropology and sociology of the body and the senses. Discussing each sense in turn – seeing, hearing, touch, smell, and taste – Le Breton has written a truly monumental work, vast in scope and deeply engaging in style. Among other pioneering moves, he gives equal attention to light and darkness, sound and silence, and his disputation of taste explores aspects of disgust and revulsion. Part phenomenological, part historical, this is above all a cultural account of perception, which returns the body and the senses to the center of social life. Le Breton is the leading authority on the anthropology of the body and the senses in French academia. With a repute comparable to the late Pierre Bourdieu, his 30+ books have been translated into numerous languages. This is the first of his works to be made available in English. This sensuously nuanced translation of La Saveur du monde is accompanied by a spicy preface from series editor David Howes, who introduces Le Breton's work to an English-speaking audience and highlights its implications for the disciplines of anthropology, sociology, and the cross-disciplinary field of sensory studies.
Men's Intrusion, Women's Embodiment

ISBN : 1317360109
Book Description
Research on violence against women tends to focus on topics such as sexual assault and intimate partner violence, arguably to the detriment of investigating men’s violence and intrusion in women’s everyday lives. The reality and possibility of the routine intrusions women experience from men in public space – from unwanted comments, to flashing, following and frottage – are frequently unaddressed in research, as well as in theoretical and policy-based responses to violence against women. Often at their height during women’s adolescence, such practices are commonly dismissed as trivial, relatively harmless expressions of free speech too subjective to be legislated against. Based on original empirical research, this book is the first of its kind to conduct a feminist phenomenological analysis of the experience for women of men’s stranger intrusions in public spaces. It suggests that intrusion from unknown men is a fundamental factor in how women understand and enact their embodied selfhood. This book is essential reading for academics and students involved in the study of violence against women, feminist philosophy, applied sociology, feminist criminology and gender studies.
Research Anthology on Applied Linguistics and Language Practices

Book Description
Whether through speech, writing, or other methods, language and communication has been an essential tool for human cooperation and development. Across the world, language varies drastically based on culture and disposition. Even in areas in which the language is standardized, it is common to have many varieties of dialects. It is essential to understand applied linguistics and language practices to create equitable spaces for all dialects and languages. The Research Anthology on Applied Linguistics and Language Practices discusses in-depth the current global research on linguistics from the development of language to the practices in language acquisition. It further discusses the social factors behind language and dialect as well as cultural identity found behind unique traits in language and dialect. Covering topics such as linguistic equity, phonology, and sociolinguistics, this major reference work is an indispensable resource for linguists, pre-service teachers, libraries, students and educators of higher education, educational administration, ESL organizations, government officials, researchers, and academicians.
Debunking the Myths of Colonization

Book Description
Debunking the Myths of Colonization. examines Salman Rushdie's thesis on the paradoxical nature of colonialism and its horrific impact on the psyche of the colonized. It probes Frantz Fanon's theories concerning the relationship between colonizers and colonized, and attempts to apply these theories to modern Arabic literature. Like Rushdi and Fanon, many Arab writers have embarked on a journey to the metropolis of their ex-colonial masters. Due to their encounter with English or French culture, they have written memoirs, poems, or fictions in which they have represented themselves and the 'other.' Their representations differ markedly according to their own make up as human beings, their class, education, experiences, and gender. Yet what brings them together is their love-hate relationship with the ex-colonizer. In the case of the Palestinian writers, however, there is only bitterness and bewilderment at Israel as a colonizing power in the 21st century and its Jewish citizens, who were once victims in Europe but now have turned into victimizers.

This work is being released after being hindered for a little over 3 years. However, due to the importance, continued promptings, encouragement, consistent help and steadfastness of the Holy Spirit, we are finally able to release it to the body of Christ as led and directed by the Lord. Seeing that none of us are perfect, we have done our best to help you understand how the Lord is desiring us to gain the ability to resist dark spirit infiltrations, development and infestations against our body, soul, spirit life and relationships, which could lead to spiritual captivity, spiritual spoil, spirit domination and can even cause or produce servants of corruption without, consistent releases from dark spirit activity and intrusions of dark spirit life. Although, it may not be a perfect work (it is the Lord that perfects His work in our lives), it is a complete assignment within itself. None of us will ever be perfect outside of Christ. We have stood in the gap to complete this work for the body of Christ and those desiring to be in the Lord's camp, by the will of the Lord and by His grace we humbly release this writing, to help you stand in these last days, in obedience to the Lord and we pray to do a Volume Two to continue working towards perfecting anything we could have missed while continuing to stand, during try times and hindrances, to complete this work. It continues to be a good fight of faith all the way for the honor and glory of His name! Eze 22.30. Sam 15.22. Eph 6.13. Please remember that our independent flow charts are now available (to help preserve the body, soul and/or spirit life and situations in Christ) and can be used as a supplement to this writing to help you stand in battle in these areas and/or withstand whatever and however the enemy is trying to affect and/or operate in your life. Be encouraged, there is hope in Christ Jesus because of His complete work at Calvary. HE IS RISEN! He is Lord, in the spirit realm. He is Lord of all! Mt. 28.6. We bless you in the name of the Lord!
