Описание:
Both a demonstration of and critical self-reflection on method, this book explores how methodologies shape our understanding of the diversity of Buddhist traditions, both in the past and the present. International contributors from both the West and Asia explore case studies and reflect on methods in the study of Buddhism, united by their debt to influential Buddhist studies scholar Richard K. Payne.
Methods in Buddhist Studies features new translations of Buddhist works as well as ethnographic studies on contemporary Buddhism in the United States and China. Topics discussed include Buddhist practices in relation to food, material culture, and imperial rituals; the development of modern Buddhist universities; the construction of the canon from the perspective of history, textual analysis, and ritual studies; and the ethical obligations of scholars toward the subject of Buddhism itself.
Chapters are drawn from both Payne's students and his colleagues, demonstrating the breadth of his intellectual interests. Payne's scholarship has left a remarkable impact on the field, making this volume essential reading for students and scholars of contemporary Buddhism and Buddhist studies.

Описание:
Rare Birds creatively re-imagines the rich and gripping story of Holloway Prison through the voices of prisoners, staff and others connected to its history, in order to explore some of the injustices of the penal system during its first hundred years. Natalie Scott's meticulously researched, moving and lyrical poems bring to life well-known voices such as Ruth Ellis, Sylvia Pankhurst, Emily Wilding Davison and Edith Thompson, plus a host of lesser-known names, to tell Holloway's story in a truly unique and fascinating way.
Hear inmates at their most vulnerable moments: Ruth Ellis in the last few minutes as she stands at the scaffold describing her executioner; Edith Thompson believing she will be given a stay due to her pregnancy; Selina Salter on her return to prison after being recorded as a lunatic. Join in with rousing suffragette songs composed whilst in prison; hear the testimonies of hunger strikes and forcible feeding; and learn about the shocking differences in treatment shown towards 1st and 3rd division inmates.
Despite Holloway Prison's notoriety as a women's prison, the poems voice women in roles other than that of criminal: there are social campaigners, comrades, as well as sisters, daughters, mothers, wives, lovers and companions. The collection explores many topics which are still just as relevant today: human rights, gender, sexuality, mental illness and socio-economic status, with some of the problems women faced in the 19th century being not so different from the issues they face now.
From the author of The Little Black Book of Innovation, a new guide for using the power of habit to build a culture of innovation
Leaders have experimented with open innovation programs, corporate accelerators, venture capital arms, skunkworks, and innovation contests. They've trekked to Silicon Valley, Shenzhen, and Tel Aviv to learn from today's hottest, most successful tech companies. Yet most would admit they've failed to create truly innovative cultures. There's a better way. And it all starts with the power of habit.
In Eat, Sleep, Innovate, innovation expert Scott Anthony and his impressive team of coauthors use groundbreaking research in behavioral science to provide a first-of-its-kind playbook for empowering individuals and teams to be their most curious and creative—every single day.
Throughout the book, the authors reveal a collection of BEANs—behavior enablers, artifacts, and nudges—they've collected from workplaces across the globe that will unleash the natural innovator inside everyone. In addition to case studies of "normal organizations doing extraordinary things," they provide readers with the tools to create their own hacks and habits, which they can then use to build and sustain their own models of a culture of innovation.
Fun, lively, and utterly unique, Eat, Sleep, Innovate is the book you need to make innovation a natural and habitual act within your team or organization.
