Also considered are the great National libraries, and the modern library as a source of information. The second part contains visionar

The second volume of the two-volume set The Fruits of Empirical Linguistics focuses on the linguistic outcomes of empirical linguistics. The contributions present some of the insights that linguists can gain by applying the new methods: progress within language study is accelerated by the new evidence since language systems are more precisely captured. Readers will enjoy the fresh perspective on linguistic questions made possible by the evidence-based approach.

For nearly sixty years, Frank Sinatra (1915-98) triumphed in concert, in the recording studio, on television, and on the big screen, refashioning his image to suit the temper of the times. Sinatra did it "his way," remaining both elusive and alluring, and appealing to men and women alike. This collection analyzes the qualities that ensured Sinatra’s staying power: his impeccable musicality, his charisma, his tough-mindedness, and even his peccadilloes. The contributors to this volume evaluate Sinatra’s impact on all areas of entertainment, and examine many of the cultural forces h

Drawing on social science perspectives, "Contested Categories" presents a series of empirical studies that engage with the often shifting and day-to-day realities of life sciences categories. In doing so, it shows how such categories remain contested and dynamic, and that the boundaries they create are subject to negotiation as well as re-configuration and re-stabilization processes. Organized around the themes of biological substances and objects, personhood and the genomic body and the creation and dispersion of knowledge, each of the volume’s chapters reveals the elusive nature of fix

There’s a tug-of-war going on, and your health is at risk. Business interests are pulling on one end and science is tugging at the other. Veteran nutritionist and health writer Nan Kathryn Fuchs knows how confusing and frustrating this is. She knows that it takes time to sift through current information and separate hype from the real deal. Aware that very few people actually have the time to read technical scientific studies and to question researchers and doctors to better understand the validity of their conclusions, this "health detective" has done it for you. There are truly miracul
