Mining various archives and newspaper repositories, Morse Jones provides the first full-length study of this remarkable woman. Pennell, a 'New Art Critic', helped develop formalist methodology in Britain, which she applied to her mostly anonymous or pseudonymous reviews. Pennell used her platform to promote the work of ‘new’ artists, including Manet and Degas, as well as championing the work of Whistler for whom she wrote a biography. Her contributions to the art world highlight the pivotal role of criticism in the production and consumption of art in the late-nineteenth century.
In her light-hearted, accessible style, Dr. Denise O’Dwyer, Chartered Principal Psychologist from Ireland, offers a contemporary summary of thoughts, ideas, insights, research and reflections - many of which regularly present for people, both in and outside of formal therapy. Psychology with a Sparkle is a journey of professional insights, personal stories, scientific research, and tips and strategies for dealing with the seemingly fixed and immovable, to sparkling fluidity. The author explains how people can successfully overcome maladaptive thinking and behavior patterns, silence their inner critic, improve relationships, overcome imposter syndrome, and strive toward becoming their personal best – physically, emotionally, psychologically, spiritually and sartorially. Learn How To: • overcome fears and self-limiting beliefs • take an honest appraisal of strengths and areas for development • establish personal values, goals, standards and daily non-negotiables • improve relationships and sexual intimacy • explore adult attachment styles • lead from the heart as well as the intellect • dress to express • celebrate and share unique gifts and talents The author highlights how each individual’s definition of success is different, and how it is up to each person to define and establish what success means, in shaping their lives and lifestyles. “Someone who is healthy has a million dreams. Someone who is not, has one.”

In analyzing the evolution of patriarchal authority in nineteenth-century culture, Melissa Shields Jenkins argues that Victorian novelists found new models within non-narrative forms such as conduct books, biography, religious manuals, political speeches and professional writing in the fields of history and science. Jenkins’s book contributes to our understanding of the part played by fathers in the Victorian cultural imagination, and sheds new light on the structures underlying the Victorian novel.
Nutrition aside, there are other interesting topics worth exploring in the pursuit of health. Can cancer be prevented? Why doesn’t everyone live long, healthy lives? What is the relationship between cardiovascular disease and the immune system? How does the immune system affect overall health? Which is a healthier food option: natural and wholesome plant foods or animal-based foods? How do our lifestyles affect our health? Good health is not a secret. To achieve good health, we must first understand it. By drawing links between diet, health, and the immune system, this book provides fascinating insights into the preventive science of Nutritional Immunology.
Video art emerged as an art form that from the 1960s and onwards challenged the concept of art - hence, art historical practices. From the perspective of artists, critics, and scholars engaged with this new medium, art was seen as too limiting a notion. Video Art Historicized provides a novel, insightful and also challenging re-interpretation of this field by examining the discourse and its own premises. It takes a firm conceptual approach to the material, examining the conceptual, theoretical, and methodological implications that are simultaneously contested by both artists and authors, yet intertwined in both the legitimizing and the historicizing processes of video as art.
From breasts and orgasms to periods, pregnancies, and menopause—A Brief History of the Female Body is a fascinating science book explaining the mysteries of the female body through an evolutionary lens. Let's face it: The female body is an enigma. For teenagers first experiencing their periods, the monthly arrival of mood swings and cramps can be agonizing and inconvenient. With pregnancy—perhaps the most miraculous of bodily events—comes countless potential complications, including high blood pressure, diabetes, premature birth, and postpartum depression. And menopause is equally mystifying. Why do females lose their fertility over time and experience the notorious side effects—like hot flashes, weight gain, and hair loss—while males maintain their fertility forever? Evolutionary geneticist and educator Dr. Deena Emera has spent much of her career studying the evolution of female reproduction. A Brief History of the Female Body draws on her vast expertise as a biologist, her experience as a mother of four children, and her love of teaching to look far into our evolutionary past, illuminating how and, more importantly, why the female form has transformed over millions of years and its effects on women's health.
