The Need for Words

Voice and the Text

By: Patsy Rodenburg

As one of the world's leading voice coaches, Patsy Rodenburg describes practical ways to approach language, using Shakespeare, Romantic poetry, modern prose and a range of other texts to help each of us discover our own unique need for words. In Part One Rodenburg attacks the myth that there is only one correct way to speak by clearing away the blocks that can make language inaccessible. Part Two, a series of language and text exercises, connects the voice to the shape and quality of individual words and phrases. Drawing on Rodenburg's time spent coaching in the worlds of business and politics, this edition reflects on how the way we use words has changed since the book was first published. It brings a renewed focus on the language of power, spoken in the worlds of politicians and company directors. This gives readers an insight into the potency of clear, direct communication. Language and text exercises provide readers with unmediated access to this new research, allowing them to practice and master the language and words that drive the modern world. Foreword by Antony Sher.

Capturing Nature

The Cement Sculpture of Dionicio Rodríguez

By: Patsy Pittman Light

Over a period of some twenty years, Mexican-born artisan Dionicio Rodríguez created imaginative sculptures of reinforced concrete that imitated the natural forms and textures of trees and rocks. He worked in eight different states from 1924 through the early 1950s but spent much of his early career in San Antonio, where several of his creations have become beloved landmarks. More than a dozen of Rodríguez’s works have been included on the National Register of Historic Places. Patsy Pittman Light has spent a decade documenting the trabajo rústico (“rustic work”) of Rodríguez, along with its antecedents in Europe and Mexico, and the subsequent work of those Rodríguez trained in San Antonio. Rodríguez’s unique and unusual art will fascinate those new to it and delight those to whom it is familiar. San Antonio sites such as the bus stop on Broadway, the faux bois bridge in Brackenridge Park, and the “rocks” on the Miraflores Gate at the San Antonio Museum of Art, along with the Old Mill at T. R. Pugh Memorial Park in North Little Rock and Memorial Park Cemetery in Memphis, are just a few of the locations covered in this volume celebrating the life and work of a Latino artisan. Students and devotees of Texas and Southwestern art will welcome this book and its long-overdue appreciation of this artist. Additionally, this book will commend itself to those interested in Latino studies, art history, and folklore.

Well, Holy God

My Life as an Irish, Catholic, Agnostic Correspondent

By: Patsy McGarry

As the Religious Affairs Correspondent of The Irish Times from 1997, Patsy McGarry reported on some of the most troubling scandals to have rocked both Catholic and Protestant Churches in the last few decades. In Well, Holy God, he looks back not only on his time in journalism, recalling some of the most distressing stories he has had to cover, but also his own history with Catholicism and of a faith lost when the stark realities of being part of that Church became apparent to him. This book covers the gamut of his career, from the horrors of the various clerical child sex abuse cases, the vilification of Bishop Eamonn Casey and the muted reaction the Church of Ireland to the violence at Drumcree, to the role of women in the Catholic Church and the tragedies of the Mother and Baby Homes and the Magdalene laundries. Alongside accounts of such seismic events, there are lighter anecdotes, including the perils of travelling with a pope, some characters he’s met along the way and a look at the good that those with a true calling can do. Well, Holy God is a memoir brimming with personality, charting the highs and lows of a truly fascinating career.

In addition, it offers day-to-day practical advice on how to cope with procedures, hospitalization, family and friends, school, social and financial issues, and communication.

As many parents have already found, advice from "veteran" parents can be a lifeline. Woven among the medical details and the practical advice are the voices of parents and children who have lived with cancer and its treatments. As many parents know, advice from "veteran" parents can be a lifeline. Obtaining a basic understanding of topics such as medical terminology, how drugs work, common side effects of chemotherapy, and how to work more effectively with medical personnel improves the quality of life for the whole family. Having parents describe their own emotional ups and downs, how they coped, and how they molded their family life around hospitalizations can be a tremendous comfort. Just knowing that there are other kids on chemotherapy who refuse to eat anything but tacos or who have frequent rages can make one feel less alone. Parents who read this book will find understandable medical infomation, obtain advice that eases their daily life, and feel empowered to be strong advocates for their child. It also contains a personal treatment summary and long-term follow-up guide for your child to keep as a permanent record.

Cerebral Cortex

Architecture, Connections, and the Dual Origin Concept

By: Deepak Pandya,Michael Petrides,Patsy Benny Cipolloni

Cerebral Cortex is a comprehensive and detailed work covering the dual nature of the organization of the architecture and connections of the cerebral cortex. After establishing the evolutionary approach of the cerebral cortex's origin, the authors have systematically analyzed, in detail, the common principle underlying the structure and connections of sensory and motor systems. This important book describes the frontal, limbic, and multimodal association areas, as well as the long fiber pathways in a similar manner. The anatomical investigations have been complimented with current clinical and experimental observations, as well as neuroimaging studies. This unique approach, exploring the underlying principle of the architecture and connections of the cerebral cortex, has previously never been undertaken. In the concluding chapter of the book, the authors have provided the usefulness of such an approach for future investigations. Cerebral Cortex provides extensive illustrations, along with historical references to each sensory, motor and association systems.

Global Business Citizenship: A Transformative Framework for Ethics and Sustainable Capitalism

A Transformative Framework for Ethics and Sustainable Capitalism

By: Donna J. Wood,Jeanne M. Logsdon,Patsy G. Lewellyn,Kimberly S. Davenport

This practical and engaging book provides a coherent approach to global business responsibility and ethics based on the latest research, theory, and practice. The authors incorporate numerous interesting and current real world examples to support the argument that corporations need to - and can - identify and implement processes that foster ethical conduct, ensure basic human rights, protect the natural environment, and enhance social justice wherever businesses operate around the globe. "Global Business Citizenship" combines elements of political theory, stakeholder relationships, business ethics, corporate social performance, accountability and measurement, and organizational change. Its practical approach encompasses "best practices" in stakeholder management, experiments in applying corporate values to local conditions, and social environmental auditing and reporting. Focusing on the strategic alignment and change management process for implementing business citizenship principles and practices, it is an essential supplement for any course concerned with ethics and social responsibility in today's global business climate.

The Ashgate Research Companion to Planning Theory

Conceptual Challenges for Spatial Planning

By: Patsy Healey

At a time of potentially radical changes in the ways in which humans interact with their environments - through financial, environmental and/or social crises - the raison d'être of spatial planning faces significant conceptual and empirical challenges. This Companion presents a multidimensional collection of critical narratives of conceptual challenges for spatial planning. The authors draw on various disciplinary traditions and theoretical frames to explore different ways of conceptualising spatial planning and the challenges it faces. Through problematising planning itself, the values which underpin planning and theory-practice relations, contributions make visible the limits of established planning theories and illustrate how, by thinking about new issues, or about issues in new ways, spatial planning might be advanced both theoretically and practically. There cannot be definitive answers to the conceptual challenges posed, but the authors in this collection provoke critical questions and debates over important issues for spatial planning and its future. A key question is not so much what planning theory is, but what might planning theory do in times of uncertainty and complexity. An underlying rationale is that planning theory and practice are intrinsically connected. The Companion is presented in three linked parts: issues which arise from an interactive understanding of the relations between planning ideas and the political-institutional contexts in which such ideas are put to work; key concepts in current theorising from mainly poststructuralist perspectives and what discussion on complexity may offer planning theory and practice.

Patsy Montana

The Cowboy's Sweetheart

By: Patsy Montana,Jane Frost

Born Ruby Rebecca Blevins in a log cabin nestled among the Arkansas Ozarks in 1908, Patsy Montana began her musical career performing in the 1920s with the California-based Montana Cowgirls trio. She went solo and in 1936 became the first female country and western singer to sell one million records with her self-penned "I Want to Be a Cowboy's Sweetheart." Her career spanned eight decades, and in 1996 (also the year of her death) she was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame. Here is the story of a tiny, blue-eyed woman who had a pioneering spirit and a big voice. Patsy Montana describes in her own words and in vivid detail her life, career, and success at a time in music history when women did not cut gold records, gold records were not even given, and Billboard did not even have a chart for western music.

Money and Murder in Narrow Creek

By: Patsy Pridgen

It’s October in small-town Narrow Creek, North Carolina, and Dee Ann Bulluck is set for a fun morning of picking pumpkins when five-year-old Heather discovers a lady “taking a nap” in Elmer’s Pumpkin Patch. The attractive, well-dressed woman in stiletto heels isn’t asleep—she’s dead—and amateur detective Dee Ann wonders about the identity of this stranger and who strangled her. As usual, husband Joe advises her to stay out of police business. Chief McSwain doesn’t want her meddling in his investigation either. But Dee Ann has a mind of her own and suspects to pursue. Who lured this woman to town and killed her? Was it a plotting boyfriend or a double-crossing drug dealer? Or maybe the body of the mystery woman was randomly dumped off the nearby interstate? It’s almost more than a working mama who’s also trying to renovate an old Victorian home has time to investigate, especially when Dee Ann is asked to tail one of her suspects to an out-of-town location. Husband-wife feuds and wife-mistress confrontations offer clues, or do they? Will Dee Ann discover the killer's identity ? Or will she become the next victim when she gets too close to the truth? Set in 1984, this third cozy mystery in the Narrow Creek Series again features feisty, opinionated Dee Ann Bulluck along with many of the quirky Southern characters readers have come to know in Ms. Dee Ann Meets Murder and Life and Death in Narrow Creek.

Historically African American Leisure Destinations Around Washington, D.C.

By: Patsy Mose Fletcher

From the late nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century, African Americans in the Washington, D.C. area sought leisure destinations where they could relax without the burden of racial oppression. Local picnic parks such as Eureka and Madre's were accessible by streetcars. Black-owned steamboats ferried passengers seeking sun and sand to places like Collingwood Beach, and African American families settled into quiet beach-side communities along the Western Shore of Maryland. Author and public historian Patsy M. Fletcher reveals the history behind Washington's forgotten era of African American leisure.

Ms. Dee Ann Meets Murder

By: Patsy Pridgen

Married for just sixteen months, since December 14, 1977, Dee Ann Bulluck is unhappy with her husband Joe about moving to isolated Narrow Creek, North Carolina, for his job as the new man at the bank. She has a baby girl, no family close by, and no job herself. Dee Ann feels doomed to a life of genteel poverty and boredom--until the murder of the town's two-timing, drug-dealing playboy. Tempted by the $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest in the case, she decides she has a chance of discovering the identity of the killer by simply reading about the murder in the local paper and listening to any gossip Joe brings home from the bank. After all, there's only so much investigating a stay-at-home mama can do. But Dee Ann soon ventures out in Narrow Creek, getting an earful about the murdered man along with a curly perm at the Kut and Kurl. She overhears two of the victim's former girlfriends accuse each other at the Narrow Creek Ladies' Society Arts and Crafts Bazaar and meets another person of interest, the victim's jealous uncle, when she goes for a job interview at the community college. As Dee Ann searches for the killer's identity, she finds her niche in Narrow Creek. She learns her new hometown, respectable on the surface, has an underbelly of cheating women and sexist men. Ms. Dee Ann Meets Murder depicts small-town Southern life in the late 1970s, with leisure suits, funeral food, Sunday church...and a feisty amateur sleuth.

The Confederate Hospitals of Madison, Georgia / their records & histories / 1861-1865

By: Bonnie P. (Patsy) Harris

Madison, Georgia was a hoppin' place while it hosted three (and later a fourth) Confederate hospitals during the eight months before their final retreat in July 1864. Every few days the train depot was a flurry of activity as surgeons, attendants, and locals unloaded hundreds of sick and wounded soldiers fresh from the battles in Tennessee and North Georgia. Most of the records of their care were saved by the Director of Hospitals of the Army of Tennessee and then ferreted out 140 years later by the author from collections scattered across many states. This book includes verbatim transcriptions of those documents, the subsequent hospital histories, surgeon biographies, and thousands of names in hundreds of regiments.

Legacy of Letters

By: Patsy Gilbert Coleman

Most every family has a batch of personal letters tucked away in a drawer or a cedar chest, perhaps from someone who was away at war, visiting a foreign land, professing love, apologizing for a major wrong or just pouring out the deepest feelings. But it’s rare to find a collection that tells a universal story. Legacy of Letters reveals in depth the ever-changing dynamics of a family circle. At its center is a young Southern girl who took the “normal” path to her vision of a fulfilled, contented maturity, only to arrive feeling empty and restless, and compelled to explore the puzzling questions about life and purpose. The true story is told through a series of actual letters and diary entries written between 1932 and 1977 and preserved by the author and members of her family. These treasured documents tell of ordinary facets of life but together make up an extraordinary portrait. This book is the first in a series that carries the story to the present day. In today’s age of instantaneous communication, we take for granted just how much of our history is preserved by the written word. Legacy of Letters captures a snapshot of real American history and passes it down through time to current and future generations.

Swimming Upstream

One man's fight to save the Atlantic wild salmon

By: Patsy Peril,Deirdre Nuttall

Patsy Peril was born in 1943 in Coonagh, a small fishing community on the Shannon, not far from Limerick. His family fished from a traditional gandelow boat, using hemp nets. Further upriver was Ardnacrusha, the enormous hydro-electric station, opened in 1929 and hailed as an engineering marvel, which provided 87% of the country's electricity. Even before the station opened, concerns were raised about the effect it would have on the river's wild salmon, blocking them from swimming upstream to spawn. And the concerns proved well-founded – salmon numbers plummeted and have continued to do so ever since. The problem is exacerbated by fish farms in the Shannon estuary, where disease and parasites are rampant among the tightly crowded fish. Patsy has made it his mission to do what he can to save the Shannon's wild salmon, and indeed wild salmon all over the Atlantic. He has campaigned restlessly on the subject for decades, working with the North Atlantic Salmon Conservation Organisation.

Searcy

By: Carolyn Boyles,Patsy Pipkin

Searcy, designated the seat of White County in 1837, was named for Richard Searcy in the same year. Mr. Searcy was a frontier lawyer appointed by Pres. James Monroe to the Superior Court of the Arkansas Territory. Searcy's proximity to rivers and plentiful game made it a natural place to settle. The many springs in the area attracted people from 1820 until the early part of the 20th century, when industry and education took over as the major draw of the area. Today, the gas industry, manufacturing companies, a Walmart distribution center, and educational opportunities make Searcy a thriving community.

The Gift of Cancer

My Greatest Teacher

By: Patsy McLean

The diagnosis of cancer can be the scariest feeling in the world, but for some, cancer can be your greatest teacher. For Pasty McLean, having cancer exposed her to a new world of education - from nutritional deficiencies and exercise to the importance of mind-body balance. Researching how toxins affect the body and how nutrition can work to benefit or cripple our immune system, this book will go through the journey of how Patsy beat cancer and evaluated her life and values. Facing death was not a death sentence but rather the start of a whole new life! Patsy is the 2014 recipient of the Julie Main International Woman Leader Scholarship.

Caring for Place

Community Development in Rural England

By: Patsy Healey

This book draws on preeminent planning theorist Patsy Healey’s personal experiences as a resident of a small rural town in England, to explore what place and community mean in a particular context, and how different initiatives struggle to get a stake in the wider governance relations while maintaining their own focus and ways of working. Throughout the book, Healey assesses the public value generated by community initiatives and the impact of such activity on wider governance dynamics. Healey explores the power which small communities are able to mobilise through self-organisation and grassroots activism. Through the lens of Wooler and Glendale as a micro-society, the book centres on a community experiencing an economic and demographic transition. It focuses on three initiatives developed and led by local people – a small community development trust, an informal attentionmobilising network, and a Neighbourhood Plan project which uses an opportunity provided within the formal planning system. It examines how, in such civil society activism, people came together to promote local development in a place and community neglected by the dominant political economy. The book details the power and force of community initiative and its potential for transforming both the future possibilities for the place and community itself, as well as wider governance relations. Overall, it seeks to enrich academic and policy discussion about how the relations between formal government and civil society energy could evolve in more productive and progressive directions.
