Literary Skinheads? Writing From The Right In Reunified Germany, Jay Julian Rosellini
Literary Skinheads? Writing From The Right In Reunified Germany, Jay Julian Rosellini
Purdue University Press Books
"Literary Skinheads? is a very nuanced, meticulously researched and vividly written study of a series of important debates in German literary circles since the fall of the Berlin Wall and the rapid political transformations that have accompanied German unification. No other book in the English-speaking world offers such a comprehensive survey of the legacy of radical conservative ideas in German political life. Rosellini not only offers trenchant interpretations of major political controversies of the last decade in Germany, but he also provides the necessary background information needed to make sense of these important public debates." Elliott Neaman, author of …
Constructing The Criollo Archive: Subjects Of Knowledge In The Bibliotheca Mexicana And The Rusticatio Mexicana, Antony Higgins
Constructing The Criollo Archive: Subjects Of Knowledge In The Bibliotheca Mexicana And The Rusticatio Mexicana, Antony Higgins
Purdue University Press Books
This book constitutes an attempt to theorize the process of the emergence, in eighteenth-century New Spain, of a position of intellectual subjectivity differentiated from that established by the regime of Spanish imperial authority. The principal concern has been to trace how certain groups of Criollo intellectuals try to construct such discourses, paradoxically, out of the framework of available European systems of knowledge and representation. In this fashion, it was sought to discern the outline of an ideological program for Criollo political and cultural hegemony in the eighteenth-century.
Women Succeeding In The Sciences: Theories And Practices Across Disciplines, Jody Bart
Women Succeeding In The Sciences: Theories And Practices Across Disciplines, Jody Bart
Purdue University Press Books
Ample evidence has been provided that women historically have suffered numerous social, political, and institutional barriers to their entrance and success in the sciences. The articles in this anthology refocus the discussion and reflect the interdisciplinary nature of the issues surrounding women in the sciences. While the barriers that women have faced as researchers, subjects of research, students of science, and theorists have been well documented, this anthology breaks new ground. It presents the ways women succeed in the sciences, overcome these historical barriers, and contribute to the social practice of science and the philosophy of science in both theory …
Call Center Benchmarking: How Good Is, Jon Anton, David Gustin
Call Center Benchmarking: How Good Is, Jon Anton, David Gustin
Purdue University Press Books
Executives are beginning to recognize the potential of the call center as a significant revenue generator, perhaps one of the surest investments they can make in enhancing and creating customer value and bottom-line profits. Return on investments made in customer accessibility is seldom less than 100% in the first year, and frequently even more if customer lifetime value is included in the equation. Herein lies the challenge and the primary reason to benchmark your call center metrics against not only the best-in-the-world, but also your most direct competitors, i.e., best-in-class.
A Story For All Americans: Vietnam, Victims, And Veterans, Frank L. Grzyb, John F. Kerry
A Story For All Americans: Vietnam, Victims, And Veterans, Frank L. Grzyb, John F. Kerry
Purdue University Press Books
Story for All Americans: Vietnam, Victims, and Veterans (formerly titled, Touched by the Dragon) details wartime accounts of average servicemen and women-some heroic, some frightening, some amusing, some nearly unbelievable. The work is a historical compendium of fascinating and compelling stories woven together in a theme format. What makes this book truly unique, however, is its absence of literary pretentiousness. Relating oral accounts, the veterans speak in a no-nonsense, matter-of-fact way. As seen through the eyes of the veterans, the stories include first-person experiences of infantry soldiers, a flight officer, a medic, a nurse, a combat engineer, an intelligence soldier, …
Bypass: A Memoir, Joseph A. Amato
Bypass: A Memoir, Joseph A. Amato
Purdue University Press Books
This inquiry into matters of heart, conducted under the shadows of pending surgery, awakens themes of boyhood, education, and marriage and prompt questions about loyalty to a deceased father, connections with immigrant grandparents, loss and rediscovery of faith, and solitude versus community. A medical narrative, the book also chronicles a span of contemporary American life. Throughout Amato's account, the consistent reminder of his upcoming bypass invites readers to reflect on their own lives and selves. This is an intelligent and witty guide to an immensely common operation that nevertheless for each patient constitutes a unique experience-a veritable rite of passage.
