Fidget

By: Kenneth Goldsmith,Darren Sean Wershler-Henry

Poetry. FIDGET is Kenneth Goldsmith's transcription of every movement made by his body in a period of thirteen hours. Originally commissioned by the Whitney Museum of American Art as a collaboration with vocalist Theo Bleckmann, FIDGET attempts to reduce the body to a catalog of mechanical movements by a strict art of observation. The stress of this rigorous exercise creates a condition of shifting reference points and multiple levels of observation that inevitably undermines the author's objective approach, and the trajectory of the work begins to change. Kenneth Goldsmith is also a visual poet and music critic.

Naturally Artificial

By: Sean Casey

Detective Ben Easter is a hard-boiled police officer in a dystopic future underground city. Ben sees the world collapsing around him and is doing his best to clean up a small piece of the world, but he struggles to deal with the changing world mentally, morally, and physically. Detective Peter Willow is an aggressive and friendly officer partnered with Ben. Peter feels at home in the dark and intimidating caves and is the opposite of Ben. Peter’s tactics and personality clash with Ben and make it difficult for them to work as a team. Fredrick Wormwood is the heir to a tunnel construction empire, and he has been kidnapped. Fredrick was about to unveil his new project, which he promised would change underground life forever. Who would dare to take such a powerful and dangerous man? Was it a daring plot for money? Was it an old enemy, finally getting even? Was it a sibling making a grab for power? Ben and Peter investigate the case, piecing together the strange life and disappearance of Fredrick. Medical technology has given humans near-immortality through clone organ transplants. Androids serve humans as drivers and housekeepers, and the surface of the earth has become uninhabitable. Ben and Peter must navigate their strange and uncertain society searching for Fredrick, unsure of who they can trust. Together, they discover a sinister plot to take over a mega-corporation and learn of a dangerous cover-up.

Dictionary of the Ponca People

By: Louis V. Headman,Sean O'Neill

Published through the Recovering Languages and Literacies of the Americas initiative, supported by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Dictionary of the Ponca People presents approximately five thousand words and definitions used by Ponca speakers from the late nineteenth century to the present. Until relatively recently, the Ponca language had been passed down solely as part of an oral tradition in which children learned the language at home by listening to their elders. Almost every family on the southern Ponca reservation in Oklahoma spoke the language fluently until the 1940s, when English began to replace the Ponca language as children entered government boarding schools and were forced to learn English. In response to demand, Ponca language classes are now being offered to children and adults as people seek to gain knowledge of this important link to tradition and culture. The approximately five thousand words in this volume encompass the main artery of the language heard and spoken by the parents and grandparents of the Ponca Council of Elders. Additional words are included, such as those related to modern devices and technology. This dictionary has been compiled at a time when the southern Poncas are initiating a new syntactic structure to the language, as few can speak a full sentence. This dictionary is not intended to recover a cultural period or practice but rather as a reference to the spoken language of the people.

Musculoskeletal Disorders

The Fatigue Failure Mechanism

By: Sean Gallagher,Mary F. Barbe

Musculoskeletal Disorders Hands-on guidance and tools for the prevention of musculoskeletal injuries in the workplace In Musculoskeletal Disorders: The Fatigue Failure Mechanism, a team of accomplished occupational health experts delivers an essential and incisive discussion of how musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) develop and progress, as well as how they can be prevented and controlled. Offering a novel, evidence-based approach to this costly problem, the book has broad implications for employers, insurers, and other stakeholders in workplace health and safety. The authors identify new risk assessment approaches based on the cumulative effects of exposure to highly variable loading conditions. These new approaches can also be applied to evaluate the efficacy of job rotation scenarios and to quantify exoskeleton efficacy. The complexities associated with fatigue failure in biological environments are also explored in addition to suggested models for understanding how the body maintains musculoskeletal homeostasis. Readers will also find: Thorough introductions to the material properties of musculoskeletal tissues and the fundamental principles of fatigue failure analysis In-depth explorations of the structure and function of the musculoskeletal system and up-to-date epidemiological research on MSDs Comprehensive discussions of validated fatigue failure risk assessment methods, including continuous exposure assessment to better quantify injury risk Insightful treatments of remodeling and healing processes as they apply to MSD risk, as well as factors that impair the healing process, like stress, obesity, and aging Perfect for occupational and environmental health and safety (OEHS) professionals, Musculoskeletal Disorders: The Fatigue Failure Mechanism will also earn a place in the libraries of ergonomists, physical therapists, biomechanists, industrial hygienists, occupational physicians, orthopedists, and musculoskeletal disorder researchers.

Voidfarer

A Tale of the Moonworlds Saga

By: Sean Mcmullen

At first Wayfarer Inspector Danolarian thought the huge oval thing that had fallen from the sky was a dragon's egg. When it opened, however, he knew that it was much, much worse. His world was being invaded by pitiless sorcerers from Lupan, who could sweep whole armies aside, and even defeat the invulnerable glass dragons. Surrender or flight were the only options ... but not for Inspector Danolarian, his Wayfarer Constables, and his sweetheart, the sorceress Lavenci. Although Danolarian is no sorcerer, he's no ordinary Wayfarer either. Faced with civilization crumbling around him, and organized resistance shattered by the invincible magic of the Lupanians, he chances upon an unlikely ally and begins to fight back. It won't be easy, for he has to rally the demoralized sorcerers of Alberin, organize its terrified citizens, stay one step ahead of his own past, and, most importantly, survive a dinner party with Lavenci's mother.

Red Snow

By: Sean Ryan Stuart

Red Snow" is a fast paced action adventure involving a former Army Special Forces officer turned CIA agent. His journey takes him all over the world as he fights rogue Russian SPETSNAZ forces in Afghanistan and later in the USA. His quest brings him in contact with fierce mujahidin warriors in their search for independence and at the same time, Jeremy Grant (our hero), relives the horrors of war in Vietnam. His mission continues after his CIA retirement due to severe injuries suffered in Afghanistan. His many treks take him throughout Afghanistan, Pakistan, Germany, France, Russia, and eventually back to San Francisco and his new job with the United States Customs Service. His new job, as the Chief of Intelligence for the law enforcement division, leads him to a new conflict with his old arch-nemesis Oleg V. Kolkov, formerly of Afghanistan and now a major participant in Russian Organized Crime (ROC) in California. Continually betrayed and followed by his enemies throughout his travels, Jeremy must use his training and experience to defeat them. This exciting and sometimes romantic adventure will remind you of land based "Hunt for Red October." About the Author Sean Ryan Stuart is a southern boy by birth and heritage, however as the only son of a professional military man he traveled extensively throughout the world. His personal military experience includes six years in the Air Force and seventeen in the US Army as a counterintelligence special agent.

Cultural Contact and Linguistic Relativity Among the Indians of Northwestern California

Cultural Contact and Linguistic Relativity Among the Indians of Northwestern California

By: Sean O'Neill

Examines the linguistic relativity principle in relation to the Hupa, Yurok, and Karuk Indians Despite centuries of intertribal contact, the American Indian peoples of northwestern California have continued to speak a variety of distinct languages. At the same time, they have come to embrace a common way of life based on salmon fishing and shared religious practices. In this thought-provoking re-examination of the hypothesis of linguistic relativity, Sean O’Neill looks closely at the Hupa, Yurok, and Karuk peoples to explore the striking juxtaposition between linguistic diversity and relative cultural uniformity among their communities. O’Neill examines intertribal contact, multilingualism, storytelling, and historical change among the three tribes, focusing on the traditional culture of the region as it existed during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. He asks important historical questions at the heart of the linguistic relativity hypothesis: Have the languages in fact grown more similar as a result of contact, multilingualism, and cultural convergence? Or have they instead maintained some of their striking grammatical and semantic differences? Through comparison of the three languages, O’Neill shows that long-term contact among the tribes intensified their linguistic differences, creating unique Hupa, Yurok, and Karuk identities. If language encapsulates worldview, as the principle of linguistic relativity suggests, then this region’s linguistic diversity is puzzling. Analyzing patterns of linguistic accommodation as seen in the semantics of space and time, grammatical classification, and specialized cultural vocabularies, O’Neill resolves the apparent paradox by assessing long-term effects of contact.

Philosophy of Time

A Contemporary Introduction

By: Sean Enda Power

As a growing area of research, the philosophy of time is increasingly relevant to different areas of philosophy and even other disciplines. This book describes and evaluates the most important debates in philosophy of time, under several subject areas: metaphysics, epistemology, physics, philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, cognitive science, rationality, and art. Questions this book investigates include the following. Can we know what time really is? Is time possible, especially given modern physics? Must there be time because we cannot think without it? What do we experience of time? How might philosophy of time be relevant to understanding the mind–body relationship or evidence in cognitive science? Can the philosophy of time help us understand biases toward the future and the fear of death? How is time relevant to art—and is art relevant to philosophical debates about time? Finally, what exactly could time travel be? And could time travel satisfy emotions such as nostalgia and regret? Through asking such questions, and showing how they might be best answered, the book demonstrates the importance philosophy of time has in contemporary thought. Each of the book’s ten chapters begins with a helpful introduction and ends with study questions and an annotated list of further reading. This and a comprehensive bibliography at the end of the book prepare the reader to go further in their study of the philosophy of time.

Mind and World in Aristotle's De Anima

Mind and World in Aristotle's De Anima

By: Sean Kelsey

Why is the human mind able to perceive and understand the truth about reality; that is, why does it seem to be the mind's specific function to know the world? Sean Kelsey argues that both the question itself and the way Aristotle answers it are key to understanding his work De Anima, a systematic philosophical account of the soul and its powers. In this original reading of a familiar but highly compressed text, Kelsey shows how this question underpins Aristotle's inquiry into the nature of soul, sensibility, and intelligence. He argues that, for Aristotle, the reason why it is in human nature to know beings is that 'the soul in a way is all beings'. This new perspective on the De Anima throws fresh and interesting light on familiar Aristotelian doctrines: for example, that sensibility is a kind of ratio (logos), or that the intellect is simple, separate, and unmixed.
