Public Relations: Best Practices and Applications gathers exemplary chapters, readings, excerpts, appendices, and case studies within the discipline to help bridge the gap between students' understanding of public relations and its practical application in the real world.The book is organized into three units. Unit I introduces students to the world of public relations and details a case study about a major PR crisis that involved Southwest Airlines. Unit II focuses on new media and social responsibility. Recognizing that shifts in technology, business, and digital culture require a fresh approach, this unit explores the current best practices that are shaping not what public relations is or accomplishes but how it is practiced. The final unit offers students a plethora of sample campaigns and campaign proposal examples.Enlightening and highly practical, Public Relations is an excellent supplementary textbook for courses and programs in public relations.
Romantic Egypt: Abyssal Ground of British Romanticism traces the historical, cultural and intellectual affiliations between Ancient Egypt and Romantic-period Britain and Germany, including the influences contributed by European thought, politics, and interventions such as Napoleon’s 1799 Egyptian Campaign. Until the contributions of Napoleon’s expedition to scientific knowledge of Ancient Egyptian monuments and ruins, Egypt had been largely swathed in mystical explanations of its past, its achievements, its beliefs, and its cultural importance; however, the increased knowledge about Ancient Egypt competed with the allure of a more mythically imbued antiquity in the Romantic imagination. Romantic Egypt argues that this balance between knowing and not-knowing, between deciphering and imagining a golden-age Egypt, between enlightened thought and mysticism, was essential to the development of the Romantic imaginary because, for the Romantics, western philosophy and art had their birth in the all-but-lost wisdom of Ancient Egypt.

Reading Sartre's Second Ethics

Reading Sartre’s Second Ethics: Morality, History, and Integral Humanity provides a comprehensive, reconstructive, and critical interpretation of Jean-Paul Sartre’s mature dialectical ethics. Generally referred to as the “second ethics,” the key texts are two posthumously published lectures, one delivered at the Gramsci Institute in Rome in 1964, the other scheduled to be delivered at Cornell University in 1965 but cancelled by Sartre in protest of U.S. foreign policy. Though quite different in content, method, and intended audience, Sartre gave both lectures the shared title “Morality and History.” This is because, Elizabeth A. Bowman and Robert V. Stone argue, these texts comprise a single, systematic ethic in two parts. The first part (Rome) focuses primarily on the ends or goals of historical conduct; the second part (Cornell) focuses primarily on normativity and its ambiguous place in lived moral experience. The Cornell text argues that the ethical task of “making the human” cannot be properly understood apart from a regressive and phenomenological analysis; the Rome text argues that the progressive and dialectical goal of historical conduct is, precisely, “integral humanity.” Taken together, the two texts demonstrate that integral humanity is always possible because the means to it can always be invented.
We have entered an ephod fundamentally at variance with anything we have experienced before, in the third world. The plight of orphans from poor and deprived backgrounds in the face of HIV/AIDS related deaths have impacted health of many children. In the face of postmodernism where traditional family network support is diminishing, an effective alternative option is required. A practical and comprehensive presentation of the qualitative research on orphan children highlights health issues from a model sample and provides practical advice on key health issues affecting orphan children in Kenya and other third world countries. This book is a must-read piece, as it presents the results of a search forthe answers to some key issues: 1. The prevalence and associated causes of orphanhood. 2. Basic health needs of orphans. 3. Support required by orphan children. The solution to health issues of the orphans is beyond individual families and any community. It requires a multi-disciplinary team inthe Nations, including Government departments, non-governmental organizations, Faith based organizations and communities. Although the findings of this research encompass only a small part of a Nation in Africa, it can be replicated in the third world. It is surprisingly relevant and remarkably practical.
While a number of movements seek state secession, the majority never achieves internationally recognized statehood. Paradoxically, some movements that have succeeded have had weaker claims to statehood than many movements that have failed. Regional Politics and State Secession seeks to explain the variation in outcomes for secessionist movements and explores the reasons for why some movements succeed when so many fail.The author proposes a novel theory of secession based on the politics of the region, with the argument that only those secessionist movements that have the support of regional state and institutional actors will succeed in achieving internationally recognized statehood. Through an analysis of six movements across three regions, this book demonstrates why and how regional actors hold the key to understanding when a secessionist movement will find success. This work will appeal to an interdisciplinary academic audience. It lies at the intersection of international relations, international law, and comparative politics. While its core argument is based in international relations, its engagement with legal issues and its in-depth case studies, make it particularly relevant for those interested in international law and comparative politics.
Though many factors can influence the likelihood that we remember a past experience, one critical determinant is whether the experience caused us to have an emotional response. Emotional experiences are more likely to be remembered than nonemotional ones, and over the past couple of decades there has been an increased interest in understanding how emotion conveys this memory benefit.This book begins with a broad overview of emotion, memory, and the neural underpinnings of each, providing the reader with an appreciation of the complex interplay between emotion and memory. It then examines how emotion influences young adults’ abilities to store information temporarily, or over the long term. It explains emotion’s influence on the memory processes that young adults use consciously and on the processes that guide young adults’ preferences and actions without their awareness. This book then moves on to describe how each of these influences of emotion are affected by the aging process, and by age-related disease, providing the reader with a lifespan perspective of emotional memory.Within each of the domains covered, the book integrates research from cognitive psychology, cognitive neuroscience, and neuropsychological perspectives, examining both the behavioral and thought processes that lead to emotion’s effects on memory and also the underlying brain processes that guide those influences of emotion.This book will be of interest to researchers and graduate students in memory, emotion, and aging, working in the fields of cognitive psychology, cognitive or affective neuroscience, and developmental or lifespan psychology.
The Construction of the Roman Legionary Fortress at Inchtuthil
Elizabeth A M Shirley
BAR Publishing
2000
nidottu
This volume presents a detailed examination of the resource implications of building a large fortress, focusing on evidence from the unique site of Inchtuthil, Scotland, which was constructed and demolished within a period of only three years (AD 83-86). Elizabeth Shirley creates a methodology for determining the quantities of material and labour input required and the factors which affected construction. She then assesses additional structural aspects: roof-framing, roof coverings, walkways, flooring, lighting and ventilation and internal finishes. The majority of the study calculates quantities of materials, working methods and rates and labour requirements for work on and off the construction site. This includes large amounts of detailed information about a wide variety of structures within a Roman fort. The results are contrasted with other sites, including Strageath and Fendoch. Shirley argues that a study of the practicalities of constructing such a large-scale military building provides valuable information about the military advance into Scotland, the everyday life of Roman legionaries and their organisational and practical skills.
