Van Bueren is a man's man. He likes scotch, long legs and Die Hard. His world is direct with no room for spoilsports. He paints, he philanders and he loves bacon. When he goes to an LA party and has his lights punched out, he wakes up in Paris and has to walk a fine line between disbelief and acceptance. The Pantheon has been working on project Paragon for a long time, and they need new talent, like Van. Apparently, the math and science folks have got it all wrong. Armed with that knowledge, people are now trying to kill him! With the help of his mysterious bombshell assistant, Evette, and his totally boss Mustang GT, Katie, he's got to stay one step ahead of his enemies, and two steps ahead of the trail of emotional wreckage he leaves in his wake. Tossed between two feuding secret societies, will he survive to once again swing his libido like a medieval weapon? Will he save the day, the girl and, more importantly, his car?
This collection offers a uniquely comprehensive guide to the sociology of the body. With a strong historical scope and conceptual framework, it provides an indispensable reference for undergraduate and postgraduate students, and a robust source for scholars working in the area. The central focus is on understanding sociology through the body; what is often described as re-reading sociology in a 'more corporeal light'. This is an interdisciplinary process, drawing on history, feminism, cultural history, art history, anthropology, social psychology, philosophy, medical sociology and media and communications, as well as sociology. While this has been primarily a Western practice, The Body seeks to broaden the perspective to include references that draw on alternative cultural assumptions, beliefs and practices (including Japan, and South America.)
Allow yourself to awaken from the slumber of monotony you exist in and there is where you may find the answers which your heart most desires. Under the cloak of control and power you wait anxiously for signs of salvation which you are not capable of seeing. Pull away the layers of theory, religion and politics and face what is real. And although I am only 11 years old, I tell you with full confidence, your beginning is near and soon you too will realize that there is more to what you might have believed about life, death, failure and success. Look around you and open your mind to the possibility that all is not black and white or even right or wrong. We live among you and although you may never sense us, we are here and we are real. Consider me your guide in a world very few are fortunate enough to see. I am like you and I struggle to understand what I am to do with this life I have been given. Yet what is truly important is that you understand that your existence is complex and I shall venture to say that your definition of "The Circle of Life" will change forever. Believe it or not? I dare you...double dare you to turn to the next page.
