The Unequal Homeless

Men on the Streets, Women in their Place

By: Joanne Passaro

The Unequal Homeless explores the persistence, as opposed to the occurrence, of homelessness. With this focus, which is absent in most of the contemporary homelessness literature, the author shows how cultural expressions of beliefs about gender difference help to perpetuate the homelessness of particular groups of people in New York City. The people who are persistently homeless in New York are, overwhelmingly, black men. The reason, Passaro contends, is that homelessness is not simply an economic predicament, but a cultural and moral location as well.

Vanishing Angle

By: JoAnne Warren

Ali Summer has successfully managed to escape her former life as a singer in a popular band for the anonymity of a life at sea, or so she thought. Plagued for years by an unidentified stalker, her job now as an officer on a cruise ship had so far proved to be inconspicuous enough to hide her identity and keep her out of harm’s way. Assigned to a new ship, she looks forward to working with some of her closest friends again and Captain Carlos Passaro - somewhat of an icon himself in the company. Despite her hard and fast rule of not getting involved with anyone on the ships, she soon finds herself falling for the handsome, yet modest Italian captain. Her blossoming relationship with Carlos finds Ali happier than she has been in years. Unfortunately, that happiness is short-lived when she starts receiving cryptic messages that seem to indicate her stalker has found her again. A myriad of tragedies and challenges happening on board the ship test her new relationship with Carlos, and the appearance of Ali’s twin sister Elle only serves to complicate things. There for her destination wedding, Elle has brought along their parents, whom Ali has been estranged from for years. Thrown together again, secrets from the past and long-held resentments begin unveiling themselves, secrets that could hold the key to who Ali’s stalker is and the accidents happening on the ship. As the crew band together to protect Ali and do their own investigating, several potential suspects emerge, including some within their innermost circle. Things draw to a close with a dramatic confrontation on deck and what seems to be an uncertain future for Ali and Carlos.

Organizational Culture

Mapping the Terrain

By: Joanne Martin

Organizational Culture provides a sweeping interdisciplinary overview of the organizational culture literature, showing how and why researchers have disagreed about such fundamental questions as: What is organizational culture? What are the major theoretical perspectives used to understand cultures in organizations? How can a researcher decipher the political interests inherent in research that claims to be political neutral -- merely "descriptive"? Expert author Joanne Martin examines a variety of conflicting ways to study cultures in organizations, including different theoretical orientations, political ideologies (managerial, critical, and apparently neutral); methods (qualitative, quantitative, and hybrid approaches), and styles of writing about culture (ranging from traditional to postmodern and experimental). In addition, she offers a guide for those who might want to study culture themselves, addressing such issues as: What qualitative, quantitative, and hybrid methods can be used to study culture? What standards are used when reviewers evaluate these various types of research? What innovative ways of writing about culture have been introduced? And finally, what are the most important unanswered questions for future organizational culture researchers? Intended for graduate students and established scholars who need to understand, value, and utilize highly divergent approaches to the study of culture. The book will also be useful for researchers who do not study culture, but who are interested in the ways political interests affect scholarly writing, the ways critical and managerial approaches to theory differ, the use and justification of qualitative methods in domains where quantitative methods are the norm.
