Abstract

“This book elegantly demonstrates how fecund cultural sociology might be when its different traditions and factions are brought into real dialogue with each other. Through a series of engaging case studies and thoughtful theoretical discussions, it points the way to a renewal of the sociology of art and music.” —David Hesmondhalgh, author of Why Music Matters “Lisa McCormick’s collection shows things have come a long way since debates in the sociology of the arts were mired in oppositions between aesthetic and social approaches. The contributions demonstrate it is possible to metaphorically chew gum and walk (if not run or perform cartwheels) at the same time. The authors draw on perspectives from French pragmatism, social aesthetics, textural sociology, symbolic boundaries, creative ecologies and the Strong Program. A timely set of contributions to an important but sometimes overlooked field of sociology.” —Eduardo de la Fuente, University of South Australia, Australia This edited collection develops the Strong Program’s contribution to the sociological study of the arts and places it in conversation with other cultural perspectives in the field. Presenting some of the newest and most original research by both renowned figures and early career scholars, the volume marks a new stage in the development of the cultural sociology of art and music. The chapters in Part 1 set new agendas by reflecting on the field’s history, presenting theoretical innovations, and suggesting future directions for research. Part 2 explores aesthetic issues and challenges in the creation, experience, and interpretation of art and music. Part 3 focuses on the material environments and social settings where people engage with art and music. In Part 4, the contributors examine controversies about music and contestation over artistic matters, whether in the public sphere, in the American judicial system, or in an emerging academic discipline. The editor’s introduction and Ron Eyerman's afterword place the chapters in context and reflect on their collective contribution to meaning-centered sociology. Lisa McCormick is Senior Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Edinburgh, UK. She was co-editor of the journal Cultural Sociology from 2016 to 2020.

Abstract

Since the publication of the sixth edition of this benchmark text, numerous advances in the field have been made - particularly in stem cells, 3D culture, scale-up, STR profiling, and culture of specialized cells. Culture of Animal Cells: A Manual of Basic Technique and Specialized Applications, Seventh Edition is the updated version of this benchmark text, addressing these recent developments in the field as well as the basic skills and protocols. This eagerly awaited edition reviews the increasing diversity of the applications of cell culture and the proliferation of specialized techniques, and provides an introduction to new subtopics in mini-reviews. New features also include a new chapter on cell line authentication with a review of the major issues and appropriate protocols including DNA profiling and barcoding, as well as some new specialized protocols. Because of the continuing expansion of cell culture, and to keep the bulk of the book to a reasonable size, some specialized protocols are presented as supplementary material online. Culture of Animal Cells: A Manual of Basic Technique and Specialized Applications, Seventh Edition provides the most accessible and comprehensive introduction available to the culture and experimental manipulation of animal cells. This text is an indispensable resource for those in or entering the field, including academic research scientists, clinical and biopharmaceutical researchers, undergraduate and graduate students, cell and molecular biology and genetics lab managers, trainees and technicians.

Abstract

This edited book demonstrates how love both unites and separates academic thinking across the arts and humanities, and beyond: from popular romance studies to border criminology, from sexology to peace studies, and into the fields of health, medicine, and engineering. This book is both a reflection and a call for a greater understanding of the complexity and importance of love in our lives, and in our world. Dr Madalena Grobbelaar is an academic, a clinical psychologist and clinical psychosexual therapist in private practice. She is a lecturer in the Counselling and Psychotherapy programmes at Edith Cowan University and has taught into the Master of Sexology at Curtin University, Australia. Dr Elizabeth Reid Boyd is an academic in the School of Arts and Humanities at Edith Cowan University, Australia. She writes fiction as Eliza Redgold, based upon the Gaelic meaning of her name. Naked: A Novel of Lady Godiva was published by St Martin’s Press, New York and is currently in script development as feature film GODIVA. Dr Debra Dudek is an Associate Professor in the English Program at Edith Cowan University, Australia. She has published internationally on visual and verbal texts for young people, including the single-authored manuscript The Beloved Does Not Bite: Moral Vampires and the Humans Who Love Them.

Abstract

"Netflix cofounder Reed Hastings reveals for the first time the unorthodox culture behind one of the world's most innovative, imaginative, and successful companies. There's never before been a company like Netflix. Not only because it has led a revolution in the entertainment industries; or because it generates billions of dollars in annual revenue; or even because it is watched by hundreds of millions of people in nearly 200 countries. When Reed Hastings co-founded Netflix, he developed a set of counterintuitive and radical management principles, defying all tradition and expectation, which would allow the company to reinvent itself over and over on the way to becoming one of the most loved brands in the world. Rejecting the conventional wisdom under which other companies operate, Reed set new standards, valuing people over process, emphasizing innovation over efficiency, and giving employees context, not controls. At Netflix, adequate performance gets a generous severance and hard work is irrelevant. At Netflix, you don't try to please your boss, you practice radical candor instead. At Netflix, employees never need approval, and the company always pays top of market. When Hastings and his team first devised these principles, the implications were unknown and untested, but over just a short period of time they have led to unprecedented flexibility, speed, and boldness. The culture of freedom and responsibility has allowed the company to constantly grow and change as the world, and its members' needs, have also transformed. Here for the first time, Hastings and Erin Meyer, bestselling author of The Culture Map and one of the world's most influential business thinkers, dive deep into the controversial philosophies at the heart of the Netflix psyche, which have generated results that are the envy of the business world. Drawing on hundreds of interviews with current and past Netflix employees from around the globe and never-before-told stories of trial and error fro m his own career, No Rules Rules is the full, fascinating, and untold story of a unique company making its mark on the world"-- When Hastings co-founded Netflix, he developed a set of counterintuitive and radical management principles which would allow the company to reinvent itself over and over on the way to becoming one of the most loved brands in the world. Rejecting the conventional wisdom under which other companies operate, he set new standards, valuing people over process, emphasizing innovation over efficiency, and giving employees context, not controls. This culture of freedom and responsibility has allowed the company to constantly grow and change as the world, and its members' needs, have also transformed. Hastings and Meyer dive deep into the controversial philosophies at the heart of the Netflix psyche to present the story of a unique company making its mark on the world. -- adapted from jacket
