Описание: Auction catalogs can tell you a lot about a person—their passions and vanities, peccadilloes and aesthetics; their flush years and lean. Think of the collections of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Truman Capote, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor.
In Leanne Shapton’s marvelously inventive and invented auction catalog, the 325 lots up for auction are what remain from the relationship between Lenore Doolan and Harold Morris (who aren’t real people, but might as well be). Through photographs of the couple’s personal effects—the usual auction items (jewelry, fine art, and rare furniture) and the seemingly worthless (pajamas, Post-it notes, worn paperbacks)—the story of a failed love affair vividly (and cleverly) emerges. From first meeting to final separation, the progress and rituals of intimacy are revealed through the couple’s accumulated relics and memorabilia. And a love story, in all its tenderness and struggle, emerges from the evidence that has been left behind, laid out for us to appraise and appreciate.
In an earlier work, "Was She Pretty?," Shapton, a talented artist and illustrator, subtly explored the seemingly simple yet powerfully complicated nature of sexual jealousy. In "Important Artifacts and Personal Property from the Collection of Lenore Doolan and Harold Morris"—a very different yet equally original book—she invites us to contemplate what is truly valuable, and to consider the art we make of our private lives.

Описание: Improved hygiene practices are known to reduce diarrhoeal disease and child mortality rates. But how should water and sanitation fieldworkers approach the task of changing people's hygiene behaviours, and how can they measure the effectiveness of their programmes? This handbook provides practical guidelines for evaluating water and sanitation-related hygiene practices for the purposes of project planning, monitoring, or final assessment of impact. It is designed to make qualitative research skills accessible to practitioners with little or no previous training in social sciences and emphasizes how to gather, review, and interpret qualitative information. The skills and experiences of engineers, health workers, and community development workers are all relevant when trying to investigate and analyse activities around water supply and sanitation. This handbook provides examples of a variety of tools designed to make the participation of local people in your assessment effective. Hygiene Evaluation Procedures was developed primarily for field-level personnel in water supply, sanitation, and hygiene education projects, including water and/or sanitary engineers, public health technicians, community workers, health educators, communication specialists, health workers, and other public health practitioners as well as project planners, managers, and trainers. It may also be useful to students and researchers in public health and other academic institutions interested in interdisciplinary enquiries into health behaviour.
