Paperback. Condition: Good. This book provides the history and genealogy of an increasingly important subject: liminality. Coming to the fore in recent years in social and political theory and extending beyond is original use as developed within anthropology, liminality has come to denote spaces and moments in which the taken-for-granted order of the world ceases to exist and novel forms emerge, often in unpredictable ways. Liminality and the Modern offers a comprehensive introduction to this concept, discussing its development and laying out a conceptual and experiential framework for thinking about change in terms of liminality. Applying this framework to questions surrounding the implosion of 'non-spaces', the analysis of major historical periods and the study of political revolution, the book also explores its possible uses in social science research and its implications for our understanding of the uncertainty and contingency of the liquid structures of modern society. Shedding new light on a concept central to social thought, as well as its capacity for pushing social and political theory in new directions, this book will be of interest to scholars across the social sciences and philosophy working in fields such as social, political and anthropological theory, cultural studies, social and cultural geography, and historical anthropology and sociology.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Inspired by tragic circumstances, Stories from the Heart of Ireland, like Make-A-Wish itself, provides positive experiences, thanks to fifty-eight different writers from around the country who have contributed stories. Who would have known that someone with an eating disorder could turn his life around to become a Michelin-starred chef, or that the loss of their son would lead to an Irish couple being responsible for saving thousands of lives in the US?Stories from the Heart of Ireland is the brainchild of Brendan Power, who lost his granddaughter when she was just nine years old, a few months after Make-A-Wish had flown her to Lapland where she met the real Father Christmas, lifting her spirits immeasurably. In return he wanted to do something that would raise funds to help other children with life-threatening conditions, and to honour her memory.With sixty-one stories, from well-known figures such as Joe Duffy, Adi Roche and Oliver Sears, a reader can dip in and out whenever they like. Some of the stories will bring a tear to your eye and others will bring a smile to your lips, but they will all provide you with a measure of inspiration.Billionaire John Magnier shares the simple truth of what determines the quality of our lives, Tommy Fleming shows that no matter how badly things go wrong, there is always a way back, and multi-million-selling author Cathy Kelly shares a very personal story of hope and inspiration.Since its launch in 1992, Make-A-Wish Ireland has granted almost three thousand wishes and they get more and more requests every year. They rely entirely on the generosity of the public for their funds and this book is one way in which everybody can help. All royalties from the sale of this book will go to Make-A-Wish Ireland. Stories from the Heart of Ireland provides 61 stories of inspiration and hope from well-known figures such as Joe Duffy, Cathy Kelly, John Magnier and Adi Roche, all in aid of Make-a-Wish Ireland. Some of the stories will bring a tear to your eye and others will bring a smile to your lips, but they will all provide you with a measure of inspiration Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
