Black Feminist Thought 30th Anniversary Edition Knowledge Consciousness and the Politics of Empowerment

Black Feminist Thought 30th Anniversary Edition Knowledge Consciousness and the Politics of Empowerment

In the first major update to this classic book in many years Collins traces the history and contours of Black women’s ideas and actions to argue that Black feminist thought is the discourse that fosters Black women’s survival persistence and success against the odds. Through meticulous research that synthesizes the important intellectual work done by Black women Collins’s timely update demonstrates that Black women’s ideas and actions are not marginal concerns but rather are central to the future of social justice within democratic societies. The combination of the text’s classic arguments and a preface and epilogue written expressly for this edition speak to people who have long been working on social justice and to a new generation of readers who are encountering the ideas and actions of Black women for the first time. For this 30th year anniversary edition Patricia Hill Collins examines how the ideas in this classic text speak to contemporary social issues and identifies the directions needed for the future of Black feminist thought. | Black Feminist Thought 30th Anniversary Edition Knowledge Consciousness and the Politics of Empowerment

Operating System Design The Xinu Approach Second Edition

Operating System Design The Xinu Approach Second Edition

An Update of the Most Practical A-to-Z Operating System BookWidely lauded for avoiding the typical black box approach found in other operating system textbooks the first edition of this bestselling book taught readers how an operating system works and explained how to build it from the ground up. Continuing to follow a logical pattern for system design Operating System Design: The Xinu Approach Second Edition removes the mystery from operating system design and consolidates the body of material into a systematic discipline. It presents a hierarchical design paradigm that organizes major operating system components in an orderly understandable manner. The book guides readers through the construction of a conventional process-based operating system using practical straightforward primitives. It gives the implementation details of one set of primitives usually the most popular set. Once readers understand how primitives can be implemented on conventional hardware they can then easily implement alternative versions. The text begins with a bare machine and proceeds step-by-step through the design and implementation of Xinu which is a small elegant operating system that supports dynamic process creation dynamic memory allocation network communication local and remote file systems a shell and device-independent I/O functions. The Xinu code runs on many hardware platforms. This second edition has been completely rewritten to contrast operating systems for RISC and CISC processors. Encouraging hands-on experimentation the book provides updated code throughout and examples for two low-cost experimenter boards: BeagleBone Black from ARM and Galileo from Intel. | Operating System Design The Xinu Approach Second Edition

The Psychology of Anxiety Second Edition

The Psychology of Anxiety Second Edition

Originally published in 1980 this title builds on the first edition which provided a comprehensive review and evaluation of theory and research on anxiety at the time. In the time between publications there had been many studies of anxiety phenomena and substantial progress in our conceptual understanding of the nature of anxiety and its measurement. The author incorporates those advances in empirical knowledge and new theoretical insights into this second edition. The most important and well-documented empirical findings in anxiety research are emphasized throughout the book but attention is also called to unresolved theoretical issues and problem areas of the time where there was urgent need for additional research. Although much research has been done since the authoritative analysis of anxiety phenomena that is presented in this book will still be of interest to medical social and behavioral scientists and personality theorists and to mental health workers of all disciplines who are engaged in clinical work with emotionally disturbed persons. | The Psychology of Anxiety Second Edition

White Twentieth Anniversary Edition

White Twentieth Anniversary Edition

Now twenty years since its initial release Richard Dyer’s classic text White remains a groundbreaking and insightful study of the representation of whiteness in Western visual culture. White explores how while racial representation is central to the organisation of the contemporary world white people have remained a largely unexamined category in sharp contrast to the many studies of images of black and Asian peoples. Looking beyond the apparent unremarkability of whiteness Dyer demonstrates the importance of analysing images of white people. Dyer places this representation within the contexts of Christianity ‘race’ and colonialism. In a series of absorbing case studies he shows the construction of whiteness in the technology of photography and film as part of a wider ‘culture of light’; discusses heroic white masculinity in muscle-man action cinema from Tarzan and Hercules to Conan and Rambo; analyses the stifling role of white women in end-of-empire fictions like Jewel in the Crown and traces the associations of whiteness with death in Falling Down horror movies and cult dystopian films such as Blade Runner and the Aliens trilogy. This twentieth anniversary edition includes a new introductory chapter by Maxime Cervulle entitled ‘Looking into the light: Whiteness racism and regimes of representation’. This new introduction illuminates how Dyer has made a major contribution to the study of contemporary regimes of representation by unveiling the cultural mechanisms that have formed and reinforced white hegemony mechanisms under which white people have come to represent what is ordinary neutral even universal. | White Twentieth Anniversary Edition
