Step by Step. Bye to My Dummy - Giulia Pesavento - Bog - Sassi - Plusbog.dk

Step by Step. Bye to My Dummy - Giulia Pesavento - Bog - Sassi - Plusbog.dk

The dummy, for many children, is a cuddle and an object that gives them security. When, however, the time comes to take it away, many children find it hard to let go. The same applies to Little Panda: he knows that his dummy ‘understands’ his emotions and can console him. He will discover, however, that even without the dummy he can manage his emotions, even negative ones, in a positive way: all he has to do is try to express his emotions in words to Big Panda, and together they will try to find the best solution to manage anger, sadness or fear.

Portishead's Dummy - Rj Wheaton - Bog - Continuum Publishing Corporation - Plusbog.dk

Portishead's Dummy - Rj Wheaton - Bog - Continuum Publishing Corporation - Plusbog.dk

An album which distilled a genre from the musical, cultural, and social ether, Portishead''s Dummy was such a complete artistic achievement that its ubiquitous successes threatened to exhaust its own potential. RJ Wheaton offers an impressionistic investigation of Dummy that imitates the cumulative structure of the album itself, piecing together interviews, impressions of time and place, cultural criticism, and a thorough exploration of the music itself. The approach focuses as much on the reception and response that Dummy engendered as it does on the original production of the album. How is that so many people have, collectively, made a quintessential headphone album into a nightclub album? How have they made the product of a niche local scene into an international success? This is the story of how an innovative, experimental album became the iconic sound for the better part of a decade; and an aesthetic template for the experience of music in the digital age.

Regression with Dummy Variables - Melissa A. Hardy - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

Regression with Dummy Variables - Melissa A. Hardy - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

Social scientists are often interested in studying differences in groups, such as gender or race differences in attitudes, buying behaviors, or socioeconomic characteristics. When the researcher seeks to estimate group differences through the use of independent variables that are qualitative (i.e., measured at only the nominal level), dummy variables will allow the researcher to represent information about group membership in quantitative terms without imposing unrealistic measurement assumptions on the categorical variables. Beginning with the simplest model, Hardy probes the use of dummy variable regression in increasingly complex specifications, exploring issues such as: interaction, heteroscedasticity, multiple comparisons and significance testing, the use of effects or contrast coding, testing for curvilinearity, and estimating a piecewise linear regression.

Battling the Inner Dummy - David L. Weiner - Bog - Prometheus Books - Plusbog.dk

Battling the Inner Dummy - David L. Weiner - Bog - Prometheus Books - Plusbog.dk

From the sexcapades of Bill Clinton to the unbelievable story of Hugh Grant and the prostitute; from the 15-year-old who weighs only 82 pounds but believes she''s obese, to the professor who screams profanities at other drivers in snarled traffic--we wonder out loud, "What are they thinking?!" What drives so many apparently normal, intelligent people to act irrationally, harming themselves and others?According to Sigmund Freud, such behavior may be caused by the "id," our built-in mental invitation to everything from dangerous fun to horrendous acts of irrationality. For popular psychology writer David Weiner, "id" stands for "Inner Dummy," the part of the brain that we must come to understand if we are ever to know why we do foolish, irrational, and compulsive things. Drawing on the groundbreaking theories of evolutionary psychology, Battling the Inner Dummy localizes the source of our irrationality in the limbic id-the most primitive part of our brain that endlessly thirsts for status, sex, territory, nurturance, and survival. "We become captured by these drives," Weiner says. "By understanding our Inner Dummy, we can avoid disasters in our own lives."Along with sound advice from clinical psychiatrist Dr. Gilbert Hefter on how to handle our own Inner Dummies with built-in rewards and punishments, Weiner brilliantly interweaves delightful, imagined conversations with Freud and staffers at a mythical advertising agency, who have been given the assignment of communicating the nature of the id''s irrationalities to the general public (e.g., t-shirts that say, "Would someone please fix my Inner Dummy before I fall in love with another idiot?" and a bathroom scale that allows you to weigh eight pounds less each time you use it).This inviting, humorous romp with Inner Dummies who have made the news illustrates how we can apply "ID prevention" in our daily lives and includes all the major strategies science and medicine have developed over the years to counter Inner Dummies that threaten our well-being. See how well you''re handling your own inner dummy by taking the quizzes at www.innerdummy.com.

Spat the Dummy - Ed Macdonald - Bog - Anvil Press Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

Spat the Dummy - Ed Macdonald - Bog - Anvil Press Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

At forty, deeply iconoclastic Spat Ryan is recently divorced, unemployed, and frequently intoxicated. Inspired by the cliche "we're only as sick as our secrets," he decides to reveal himself a piece at a time for the "cure." A deeply skeptical outsider, stunted by many adolescent appetites, Spat survived his often violent, terrifying past by keeping his darkest truths out of mind. A wholly unpopular student, he was christened "Big Dummy" by a nun teaching at his junior high. The name Spat the Dummy and an unearned bad reputation followed him to the end of his miserable school years. Raised by a bagman for the Irish mob, Spat has fictionalized or ignored chuinks of his life too painful to contemplate. When he meets an old friend of his father's in a bar on the Main, they develop a camaraderie built on memories of the man they both revered. During a drinking session with his father's old friend, it is revealed that she, too, has been keeping the same secret that ultimately shaped Spat's tumultuous life. Her reaction to the recollection ends their friendship and begins his quest to understand how he became hiself. 'Spat the Dummy' is a brilliant debut novel that will have readers longing for more from this wildly original writer. "This is a satisfying read from a talented author that manages to convey the rather hopeful message that each od Spat's small successes mean moe than all of his spectacular failures combined." - Montreal Gazette

Grappling with Monuments of Oppression - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Grappling with Monuments of Oppression - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Grappling with Monuments of Oppression provides a timely analysis of the diverse approaches being used around the world to confront colonial and imperial monuments and to promote social equity. Presenting 12 interdisciplinary, international case studies, this volume explores the ways in which the materiality of social domination can be combated. With contributions from activists, scholars, artists, and policymakers, the book envisions the theme of restorative justice in heritage and archaeology as encompassing initiatives for the reconciliation of past societal transgressions using processes that are multivocal, dialogic, historically informed, community-based, negotiated, and transformative. Arguing that monuments to historical figures who engaged in oppressive regimes provide rich opportunities for dialogue and negotiation, chapters within the book demonstrate that, by confronting these monuments, citizens can envision new ways to address the context and significance of the figures they memorialize and the many people who were targets of their oppression. Contributors to the book also provide a toolkit of methods and strategies for addressing the continuing structures of social domination. Grappling with Monuments of Oppression will be essential reading for academics and students working in heritage studies, archaeology, anthropology, material culture studies, landscape analysis, and museum studies. It will also be of great interest to practitioners and activists around the world.

The Horrible Dummy and Other Stories - Gerald Kersh - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

The Horrible Dummy and Other Stories - Gerald Kersh - Bog - Faber & Faber - Plusbog.dk

''It is a quality of flamboyant vigour in Mr Kersh that wins attention first of all for his fiction, and more especially, perhaps, for his occasional short story. When his flamboyant energy of sentiment and language comes off he achieves an effect of genuine distinction; at his surest, that is, he is a short story writer of a strongly individual and rewarding kind... the best and cleverest [of the 23 stories in this volume] tells with excellent economy of a ventriloquist''s dummy which was inhabited, or so it seemed, by the spirit of the ventriloquist''s murdered father... ''The Drunk And The Blind'', the sketch of an old, battered and mentally ruined boxer, is done with a telling and slightly brutal power. ''The Devil That Troubled The Chess-Board''... is another sound thing in a vein of the slightly macabre.'' Times Literary Supplement (1944)
