The Intellectual Foundations of Alfred Marshall's Economic Science
This book provides a contextual study of the development of Alfred Marshall's thinking during the early years of his apprenticeship in the Cambridge moral sciences. Marshall's thought is situated in a crisis of academic liberal thinking that occurred in the late 1860s. His crisis of faith is shown to have formed part of his wider philosophical development, which saw him supplementing Anglican thought and mechanistic psychology with Hegel's Philosophy of History. This philosophical background informed Marshall's early reformulation of value theory and his subsequent wide-ranging reinterpretation of political economy as a whole. The book concludes with the suggestion that Marshall's mature economic science was conceived by him as but one part of a wider, neo-Hegelian, social philosophy.

Gender Stereotyping

Gender Stereotyping

Drawing on domestic and international law, as well as on judgments given by courts and human rights treaty bodies, Gender Stereotyping offers perspectives on ways gender stereotypes might be eliminated through the transnational legal process in order to ensure women's equality and the full exercise of their human rights. A leading international framework for debates on the subject of stereotypes, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women, was adopted in 1979 by the UN General Assembly and defines what constitutes discrimination against women. It also establishes an agenda to eliminate discrimination in all its forms in order to ensure substantive equality for women. Applying the Convention as the primary framework for analysis, this book provides essential strategies for eradicating gender stereotyping. Its proposed methodology requires naming operative gender stereotypes, identifying how they violate the human rights of women, and articulating states' obligations to eliminate and remedy these violations. According to Rebecca J. Cook and Simone Cusack, in order to abolish all forms of discrimination against women, priority needs to be given to the elimination of gender stereotypes. While stereotypes affect both men and women, they can have particularly egregious effects on women, often devaluing them and assigning them to subservient roles in society. As the legal perspectives offered in Gender Stereotyping demonstrate, treating women according to restrictive generalizations instead of their individual needs, abilities, and circumstances denies women their human rights and fundamental freedoms.

This book uncovers Forman's private world, that of a compulsive womaniser who kept a coded diary, a record of promiscuity as colourful as the journals of Pepys and Boswell.

Published as the companion volume to the BBC Television show of the same name, The Good Cook is a collection of 100 of legendary chef Simon Hopkinson's favorite recipes, drawn from his childhood, his restaurant career, and his most memorable meals. A good cook, for Simon, is someone who cares as much about eating as cooking. A good recipe becomes a great dish when the cook has thought about the ingredients and treated them well. These ingredients do not have to be expensive. Simon's genius lies in his belief that a cheap cut of meat, for example, cooked with care can often taste nicer than a choice one prepared by indifferent hand. Structured around Simon's love of good ingredients and written with his trademark perfectionism and precision, this book is for anyone who loves to cook and wants to learn from one of the best.
The Cook and the Cold: Collected Narrative Verse
The story is as old as man. Older, if you believe it came first, and us afterwards. And oldest of all story's incarnate tongues is poetry. From days when the nomad paid his poet in cattle, to our current electric era and its global reach, poetry has always held the story, and the story holds us. What then is the man in story? Since the time of Adam, he has been the monster, that which is alienated, that which does not fit. The vampire, the scientist's deformed creation, the killer, the cannibal, the dog-man, the corpse of funerals' past: all capture some facet of ourselves outside time, and place, and self. Such is the inheritance of grotesque creatures handed down to us through all folklore and fiction, culminating in Cosmic Poet Simon Pole's authoritative collection of narrative verse. Twenty-four poems-as-stories dissecting the monsters in man, and the monsters which live outside us. Twenty-four tales spun in traditional metre and rhyme, for their horrors are as old as the hills, as young as the new bride of spring. Twenty-four tales confronting the legacy of damnation we share, and our own incapacity to fix it. Story is the medicine, and poetry the strongest antidote of all. For this is where we explore, recount and cope. This is where we rise above, to the supernatural, that which is above our nature, the nature of the monster. This is the greatest story of all, and there we find our home. Bio His mind corrupted by childhood exposure to horror movie matinees, but equally enthralled by the atmosphere of old churches, Simon Pole writes cosmic poetry from the location of Kingsville, Ontario. A graduate of Harvard University, Simon has continued his studies of what is hidden in the dark. Writing is also in his blood, being the great-great-grandson of early Canadian poet Susie Drury.
