The Animalizing Imagination
Animals appear not just as biological creatures, but as vehicles of meaning for human imagination, mind and culture. Animal life may form the basis for an animalizing imagination that can enhance our cultural, religious and aesthetic sensibilities. This imagination is rooted in the pre-modern affective relationship between shamans and their familiars, but can be tracked to our post-modern ecological crisis, where we can reclaim a totemic identification with animals as signifiers of a new ecological understanding.

Connective Tissues in Arterial and Pulmonary Disease
The processes of distention and recoil have an essential role in the functions of arteries and lungs. In both organ systems, these processes involve to a great extent the connective tissues, in particular the manner in which the extracellular materials are arranged to afford such movements. This book concerns the microenvironment of the connective tissues in the walls of arteries and the stroma of lungs. Proteoglycans, collagen, and elastic fibers and their interrelationships are discussed by eight scientists who are established researchers in this area. Their reports include important findings on how this microenvironment is altered in diseases such as atherosclerosis, emphysema, and pulmon...
Medical Humanities
This ground-breaking book sets out a fresh vision for a future medical education by providing a radical reconceptualisation of the purposes of medical humanities through a lens of critical health psychology and liberatory pedagogy. The medical humanities are conceived as translational media through which reductive, instrumental biomedicine can be raised in quality, intensity, and complexity by embracing ethical, aesthetic, political, and transcendental values. This translation occurs through innovative use of metaphor. A note of caution is offered – that the medical humanities too can be instrumental and reductive if not framed well. Drawing on major theorists such as Michel Foucault and J...
The Bulldogs
Lutcher High School Football is football that's an attitude - David Richard Lutcher High is always had a legacy of excellence on the gridiron, and since starting football in 1925, many have tried to verbalize that excellence. However, none have offered a better definition than David Richard, a former Lutcher High School star running back and head football coach of the 1983 state champion Bulldogs. The Bulldogs: A History of Lutcher High School Footbal examines how teenage boys for generations have come together through hard work, dedication, and sacrifice to form something greater than the individual sum of their parts - to create an ever-evolving definition of Lutcher Football.
