Living and Loving Through and Past Cancer

A Spouse's Perspective

The wedding went off without a hitch, everyone partied, and our life together had officially started. The following day we were off to Hawaii for our honeymoon. We were in Maui, one of my favorite Hawaiian islands. I had been here many times before and was enjoying showing Monica around this beautiful island and doing the touristy things people do when in Hawaii. One morning, while she was showering, she felt a lump on one of her breasts. What would you do if you had only been married for a few days and found out that your wife had breast cancer? When his wife, Monica, found a lump on her breast while on their honeymoon in Maui, Steven was forced to ask himself that question. But for him, the answer was simple; he was going to stay by the side of the woman that he loved, show her love and affection every day, and support her in their fight against breast cancer. Monica lost both of her breasts. She underwent chemotherapy. She lost her hair. She struggled with the disease physically and mentally. But through it all, Steven loved and supported her unconditionally. Living and Loving Through and Past Cancer: A Spouse's Perspective is about more than just Steven and Monica's fifteen year battle against cancer; it is a inspiring story of unconditional love in which Steven shares his heart and soul. Living and Loving Through and Past Cancer gives readers insight into not only the trials and tribulations that Steven and Monica endured, but it also reveals how their love and relationship grew stronger in spite of cancer.

Experimental Design and Analysis

This volume introduces the reader to one of the most fundamental topics in social science statistics: experimental design. The authors clearly show how to select an experimental design based on the number of independent variables and the number of subjects. Other topics addressed include variability, hypothesis testing, how ANOVA can be extended to the multi-group situation, the logic of the t test and completely randomized designs.

Steven R. Brown, Lawrence E. Melamed. SERIES EDITOR'S INTRODUCTION
Social science methods can be divided in two, nonexperimental and
experimental. A key principle of experimental work is manipulation of a treatment
variable (X), followed by observation of a response variable (Y). If I change X,
and Y changes in the hypothesized way, then I am tempted to say X causes Y
However, this causal inference rests on soft ground, unless the experiment has
been properly ...

Riddle of the Waves

Afghanistan, Iraq, Kosovo, Ireland – every crewmember aboard the Spirit of Falmouth had served in one of these trouble spots, had had almost unimaginably traumatic experiences there, and then had trouble readjusting to civilian life. Some were hospitalised, others ended up living on the streets, many of them found themselves alone and isolated. This unique and inspiring account follows the Spirit of Falmouth's June 2016 voyage around the country these men had sworn to protect. The tall ship is the last remaining Merseyside Pilot Schooner, and the voyage was organised by veterans' charity Turn To Starboard to coincide with the 250th anniversary of the pilot service. The route took the men from Falmouth back to Liverpool, where the service started in 1766, the long way. For many of the men it was a pilgrimage, visiting the places they cherish, family homes, spiritual places, the homes of their heroes. It was a chance for each of them all to finally put to bed the issues they all faced when returning to civilian life. Sailing proved to be greatly restorative, helping them to find purpose in their lives, friendship after months of isolation and finally to regain their sense of worth. This is the story of the Spirit of Falmouth's crew – dramatic, uplifting, moving, and told with the inevitable darkly hilarious humour of those who have served.

Structural Phenomenology

An Empirically-based Model of Consciousness

This book represents a major step forward in the philosophy of mind. Steven Ravett Brown makes an important contribution to the field of naturalized phenomenology by developing a -structural phenomenology- model based on contemporary studies of gestalts and attention. This model clearly and explicitly brings scientific data to bear upon the nature of conscious experience. Synthesizing empirical data from several fields, Brown provides a phenomenological analysis of structural components of intentionality, a reconsideration of functional processes of gestalts, and a reformulation and indepth analysis of higher-order processing and the -tip of the tongue- meta-cognitive phenomenon. The unique importance of this book lies in its providing an explanatory tool that can predict as well as elucidate mental phenomena. It demands attention from all philosophers, psychologists, and neuroscientists engaged in research into the mental."

Theatricalities of Power

The Cultural Politics of Noh

Through an extended reading of the noh play Aoi ne Ue, as well as briefer examinations of several other plays, this book sheds new light on the circulation of power and desire in the middle and late medieval periods in Japan. It argues that these plays constituted an active force in the theater of the medieval cultural imaginary by engaging specific sociopolitical issues and problems.

The Cultural Politics of Noh Steven T. Brown. CHAPTER I. Instituting. Noh.
Although noh is thought to have derived, in part, from various forms of
entertainment performed at court, such as Chinese dance (gigaku,] bugaku) and
music (gagaku), imported into Japan in the seventh and eighth centuries, its
beginnings were more popular than courtly. The early popular dramatic forms
that seem to have exerted the greatest influence on the development of noh
include various sacred and ...

The Social Psychology of Experience

Studies in Remembering and Forgetting

As their argument unfolds, the authors reveal that memories do not solely reside in a linear passage of time, linking past, present and future, nor do they soley rest within the individual's conciousness, but that memory sits at the very heart of 'lived experience'; whether collective or individual, the vehicle for how we remember or forget is linked to social interaction, object interaction and the different durations of living that we all have. It is very much connected to the social psychology of experience.
