  • by Massey Doreen Massey
    £18.49

    This new book brings together Doreen Massey's key writings on three areas central to a range of disciplines. In addition, the author reflects on the development of these ideas and outlines her current position on these important issues. The book is organized around the three themes of space, place and gender. It traces the development of ideas about the social nature of space and place and the relation of both to issues of gender and debates within feminism. It is debates in these areas which have been crucial in bringing geography to the centre of social sciences thinking in recent years, and this book includes writings that have been fundamental to that process. Beginning with the economy and social structures of production, it develops a wider notion of spatiality as the product of intersecting social relations. In turn this has lead to conceptions of 'place' as essentially open and hybrid, always provisional and contested. These themes intersect with much current thinking about identity within both feminism and cultural studies. Each of the themes is preceded by a section which reflects on the development of ideas and sets out the context of their production. The introduction assesses the current state of play and argues for the close relationship of new thinking on each of these themes. This book will be of interest to students in geography, social theory, women's studies and cultural studies.

  • by Bauman Zygmunt Bauman & Tester Keith Tester
    £15.99

    Zygmunt Bauman is one of the leading figures in contemporary social thought. His work ranges across issues of ethics, culture and politics. It never forgets that social thought ought to help men and women make sense of their lives and aspire towards something different. His books and essays always focus on the here and now: violence and moral indifference, globalization, consumerism, politics and individualization. They cast a sharp eye on the panaceas of there is no alternative'; the embrace of community and the fads of the counselling boom'; through which men and women are told that they can achieve biographical solutions to what are, in fact, systemic problems. In this new book, Zygmunt Bauman and Keith Tester engage in five accessible conversations that uncover and explore the assumptions and commitments underpinning Bauman's ground-breaking social thought. The conversations show how those commitments have influenced Bauman's analyses of modernity, postmodernity and liquid modernity'. The book ranges widely, from autobiographical reflection through to pointers for the understanding and future of Bauman's social thought. The conversations illustrate the moral substance of Bauman's refusal to accept that the world cannot be made different. They show why social thought is a human necessity. Conversations with Zygmunt Bauman is a book which will offer fresh insight into Bauman's work for those who are familiar with it, and provide an engaging and helpful entry point for those who are new to it.

Still Standing gives leaders the ability to adapt by using their most underutilized asset: tough conversations." --DAN MARTELL, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Buy Back Your Time "Still Standing was written with entrepreneurs and leaders in mind. A practical resource, this book gives leaders the tools to thrive and to lean into the tough conversations that unlock our greatness." --GIOVANNI MARSICO, three-time Emmy-winning producer and Founder and CEO at Archangel "Still Standing is needed at a time when business leaders, especially founders, are navigating tough times. Being a founder is a rollercoaster ride, and in the most difficult times, there are few resources available. This book is genuine, uplifting, but most of all, empowering to those who need more real talk in their lives." --BEDY YANG, Managing Partner at 500 Global "This book is an important contribution to our innovation ecosystem.

Still Standing is an honest and compassionate look at the conversations founders and leaders need to have today to ensure long-term health and vitality." --JANET BANNISTER, Founder and Managing Partner at Staircase Ventures
