Geographies of Digital Exclusion
Who shapes our digital landscapes, and why are so many people excluded from them?
Digital Economies at Global Margins
Investigations of what increasing digital connectivity and the digitalization of the economy mean for people and places at the world's economic margins. Within the last decade, more than one billion people became new Internet users. Once, digital connectivity was confined to economically prosperous parts of the world; now Internet users make up a majority of the world's population. In this book, contributors from a range of disciplines and locations investigate the impact of increased digital connectivity on people and places at the world's economic margins. Does the advent of a digitalized economy mean that those in economic peripheries can transcend spatial, organizational, social, and pol...
A Year of Festivals in Ireland
Mark Graham decided to attend three festivals a week for a year. In this entertaining roller-coaster tour of Ireland, Mark paints a picture not of a broken and maudlin country, but of a people with a wealth of character, imagination, generosity, wildness, curiosity, creativity, and an insatiable hunger for fun and devilment. The surprising array of weird and wonderful festivals around Ireland are matched and surpassed by the cohort of characters and clients who attend them. Throwing himself into the thick of these gatherings may have nearly killed him, but he survived his year of festivals, enjoyed almost every minute, and was left with a tale or two to tell.

Afghanistan in the Cinema
In this timely critical introduction to the representation of Afghanistan in film, Mark Graham examines the often surprising combination of propaganda and poetry in films made in Hollywood and the East. Through the lenses of postcolonial theory and historical reassessment, Graham analyzes what these films say about Afghanistan, Islam, and the West and argues that they are integral tools for forming discourse on Afghanistan, a means for understanding and avoiding past mistakes, and symbols of the country's shaky but promising future. Thoughtfully addressing many of the misperceptions about Afghanistan perpetuated in the West, Afghanistan in the Cinema incorporates incisive analysis of the mar...
And Wrap Your Arms Around Living: A Collection of Poetry
AND WRAP YOUR ARMS AROUND LIVING. Six words that represent the heart and soul of a poetry collection by acclaimed novelist and artist Mark Graham. Inspiring, truthful, challenging. One hundred and ten poems that pull no punches exploring the journey each one of us faces in pursuit of the illusive, often tumultuous goal of living life successfully. One day a massive struggle, the next a glorious celebration, but always forward. One day crashing and burning, the next reveling in the gifts of the world, all the while employing every tool in the toolbox we call life. Each poem a story, each a study in self-honesty, nobility, and hope, and traversing both the successes we experience and the failures that drive us. Weaving the likes of nature, love, hard work, and hard roads into short, insightful tapestries and encouraging a world view unique to every individual, the author takes his readers on excursions that are as bold as they are unpredictable and as simple as they are empathetic. Often humorous and always thoughtful, each verse has at its core the often complicated, but always rewarding message inspiring us to wrap our arms around living.
Healing Is God's Children's Bread
Healing is not something of the past; healing is available for you today. Jesus suffered, bled, died, and rose from the dead so that you could walk in divine health and minister His healing virtue to those who are sick and afflicted. It is just as real and readily available today as the day Isaiah declared it, and then Peter echoed it: By His stripes you are healed. Healing is Gods childrens bread.
