La mort par cancer

"This collection gives a widely spread voice to the widening acknowledgement of what maps mean and do; how and where they occur. Comprising a series of related but distinctive, lively, well worked and critically engaging chapters, the book will find readers across a range of disciplines and subjects." - David Crouch, University of Derby, UK

"Mapping Cultures offers a collection of innovative studies and theoretical essays, each confronting the diffusion of cartographic method and rhetoric throughout humanities and social science research over the past two decades. . . . [the book] is brimming with insight into the emergent mapping practices and vocabularies by which we might better resist authoritarian, anti-democratic practices, which themselves do work through mapping. And it helps clear a path by which researchers in the humanities and social sciences alike might better understand and express that ''it is not so much what people do with maps as it is what maps do with people'' (Wood, p. 300). For this alone, the book is an important bridge between the relatively recent innovations of critical cartography, in particular, and a host of other fields just as recently innovated by the methods and metaphors of cartography in general." - Cartographica 48 (2), 2013.

"The book closes with a call for a more explicit critical reorientation towards mapping, and map use a project of the anthropology of cartography (D. Wood). This call seems to be still valid and one can admit that Mapping Cultures is a significant step towards achieving the goal. Readers from different disciplines will find valuable contributions both theoretical and empirical in the collection. For a tourism researcher or student, the book is thought-provoking for several reasons, not only because of the enhancing awareness of cartography in relation to areas such as cinema, music, travel..." - Tourism, Culture and Communication 12, 2013.

“The book is a valuable contribution to literature
because there are very limited books that are written specifically for the
issue of South-South Cooperation. … the book is enriched with examples that
clearly define the discussed concepts and comments. Moreover, the book gives a
great place to the international and regional institutions in the context of
South-South Cooperation, and it is very crucial in this globalized world that
the role of the institutions is not denied.” (Yağmur Erşan, Turkish Weekly,
turkishweekly.net, December, 2015)

&ldquo;Child grabs hold with the first page and won't let go until the finish. This is pulse-pounding suspense, and Child hardly misses a beat.&rdquo;&mdash;The Arizona Daily Star  &ldquo;Good thrillers exist in a class of their own. The point of such a book is total escape and Tripwire fills the bill. A bang-up finale which makes the reader sit back and gasp with both wonder and understanding.&rdquo;&mdash;The Denver Post&ldquo;Not only bang-on suspense but an insightful look into how humans work.&rdquo;&mdash;Houston Chronicle&ldquo;A stylish thriller as complex and disturbing as its hero.&rdquo;&mdash;Stephen White &ldquo;A tightly-drawn and swift thriller that gives new meaning to what a page-turner should be.&rdquo;&mdash;Michael Connelly&ldquo;Page for page, there's probably more fisticuffs in a Lee Child thriller than anywhere else.&rdquo;&mdash;Chicago Tribune &ldquo;When you put a good villain together with a great hero like Jack Reacher...the result is a thriller good to the last drop.

This book articulates a vision of the theory and practice of personality assessment that will inform beginners and experts alike. Wiggins' portrayal of different traditions in the field highlights the goals and accomplishments of each approach, and successfully transmits the excitement and fascination with assessment that is characteristic of practitioners. This is not a 'how-to-do-it' text, but a thoughtful, scholarly, and readable consideration of central questions in assessment. Beginning students will find this volume a welcome introduction to personality assessment vivified by a multifaceted study of a single case; more advanced readers will find a coherent vision that integrates theory and practice. There is no comparable treatment of the scientific and practical foundations of personality assessment.--Daniel J. Ozer, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of California, RiversideIn this long-awaited book, one of the recognized giants of personality assessment has summarized the history and state of the art of five assessment paradigms. Wiggins' approach might be described as 'zealous eclecticism': his broad scholarship is infused with genuine enthusiasm for each paradigm. He offers a theoretical integration in a chapter on agency and communion, and has assembled a cast of experts to illustrate their methods in what will doubtless become a celebrated case history. This is an essential text for anyone who assesses personality. It is suitable for use in graduate-level clinical psychology courses, as well as personality courses for graduates and advanced undergrads.--Robert R. McCrae, PhDThis book is the mature work of a wise and gifted scholar and writer. It beautifully describes the essence of five approaches to personality assessment. From the opening pages, the reader is engaged--and rewarded--with a sympathetic yet balanced appreciation of each approach. Using his own rich personal experiences and his encyclopedic academic knowledge, Jerry S. Wiggins has provided numerous impressive insights into fascinating ideas and the people who generated them.--Leonard M. Horowitz, PhD, Department of Psychology, Stanford University-Very much a must-read book for personality assessment specialists and their students....destined to become another classic and a want-to-read book for many psychologists.--Canadian Psychology, 10/6/2005
