Poverty, Wealth, and Well-Being

Experiencing Penia in Democratic Athens

By: Claire Taylor

Poverty in fifth- and fourth-century BCE Athens was a markedly different concept to that with which we are familiar today. Reflecting contemporary ideas about labour, leisure, and good citizenship, the 'poor' were considered to be not only those who were destitute, or those who were living at the borders of subsistence, but also those who were moderately well-off but had to work for a living. Defined in this way, this group covered around 99 per cent of the population of Athens. This conception of penia (poverty) was also ideologically charged: the poor were contrasted with the rich and found, for the most part, to be both materially and morally deficient. Poverty, Wealth, and Well-Being sets out to rethink what it meant to be poor in a world where this was understood as the need to work for a living, exploring the discourses that constructed poverty as something to fear and linking them with experiences of penia among different social groups in Athens. Drawing on current research into and debates around poverty within the social sciences, it provides a critical reassessment of poverty in democratic Athens and argues that it need not necessarily be seen in terms of these elitist ideological categories, nor indeed solely as an economic condition (the state of having no wealth), but that it should also be understood in terms of social relations, capabilities, and well-being. In developing a framework to analyse the complexities of poverty so conceived and exploring the discourses that shaped it, the volume reframes poverty as being dynamic and multidimensional, and provides a valuable insight into what the poor in Athens - men and women, citizen and non-citizen, slave and free - were able to do or to be.

For ALL It’s Worth, Because You Matter

By: Nathalie Marie-Claire

Supermen. Marshmallows. Infinite magnitudes. Intuitions. The art of gentleness, presence, and prayer. Our lives are marked by what appear to be significant yet disjointed stories and micro-narratives. But what if they all joined together to produce something even greater than the sum of their parts? For ALL It’s Worth, Because You Matter is a compilation of thoughtful and true stories by Nathalie Marie-Claire, weaving together the people and moments that have tested and challenged her preconceptions about what matters in life and how this shaped her future life encounters. This book explores the interconnectedness of the author’s experiences and challenges the reader to do the same using the lessons that arise in each chapter. It is both a story and a guide, designed to prompt introspection and impart joy. Written in a lighthearted manner, it unpacks an important journey. The intention is to help the reader identify what matters in their own lives and to find love, inner freedom, peace and harmony in the wider tapestry of their own experiences. Because You Matter.

Evidence-based Clinical Chinese Medicine - Volume 2: Psoriasis Vulgaris

By: Claire Shuiqing Zhang,Jingjie Yu

Evidence-based Clinical Chinese Medicine: Volume 2: Psoriasis Vulgaris provides a 'whole evidence' analysis of the Chinese medicine management of psoriasis vulgaris. Evidence from the classical Chinese medicine literature, contemporary clinical literature, and the outcomes of clinical trials and experimental studies are reviewed, analysed and synthesised. The data from all these sources are condensed to provide evidence-based statements which will inform clinical practice and guide future research.This book has been designed to be an easy reference at the point of care. During a patient consultation, Chinese medicine practitioners can refer to this book for guidance on which Chinese herbal medicine formulas, specific herbs, or acupuncture points, can best treat their patient, and be confident there is evidence which supports its use.Currently, Chinese medicine practitioners who develop a special interest in a particular health condition such as psoriasis have to consult a variety of sources to further their knowledge. Typically, they use the contemporary clinical literature to understand the theory, aetiology, pathogenesis and obtain expert opinions on the Chinese medicine management of psoriasis. They search the electronic literature to identify systematic reviews of clinical trials, if any exist, to obtain assessments of the current state of the clinical evidence for particular interventions. If they have the skills and resources, they may search the classical Chinese medicine literature for an historical perspective on treatments that have stood the test of time.This book provides all of this information for practitioners in one handy, easy to use reference. This allows practitioners to focus on their job of providing high quality health care, with the knowledge it is based on the best available evidence.
