A Wired Must-Read Book of Summer"Gretchen McCulloch is the internet's favorite linguist, and this book is essential reading. Reading her work is like suddenly being able to see the matrix." --Jonny Sun, author of everyone's a aliebn when ur a aliebn tooBecause Internet is for anyone who's ever puzzled over how to punctuate a text message or wondered where memes come from. It's the perfect book for understanding how the internet is changing the English language, why that's a good thing, and what our online interactions reveal about who we are. Language is humanity's most spectacular open-source project, and the internet is making our language change faster and in more interesting ways than ever before. Internet conversations are structured by the shape of our apps and platforms, from the grammar of status updates to the protocols of comments and @replies. Linguistically inventive online communities spread new slang and jargon with dizzying speed. What's more, social media is a vast laboratory of unedited, unfiltered words where we can watch language evolve in real time. Even the most absurd-looking slang has genuine patterns behind it. Internet linguist Gretchen McCulloch explores the deep forces that shape human language and influence the way we communicate with one another. She explains how your first social internet experience influences whether you prefer "LOL" or "lol," why sparkly tildes succeeded where centuries of proposals for irony punctuation had failed, what emoji have in common with physical gestures, and how the artfully disarrayed language of animal memes like lolcats and doggo made them more likely to spread.

Описание: The Emerald Handbook of Criminology, Feminism and Social Change combines a wide range of international contributors to chart the uneasy relationship between feminism, criminology and victimology. It explores historical and contemporary questions posed for criminology and victimology by feminist work. The book is split into four sections: part one discovers the origins of feminist criminology; part two showcases research and broadens the conceptual and spatial horizons of feminist criminological endeavour through the inclusion of voices from the Global South, setting a challenging agenda for those in the Global North to listen to. Part three, ‘Extending the Criminological Agenda’, illustrates how feminist thought has pushed the boundaries of criminological work to offer more nuanced approaches to thinking about crime and criminal victimisation, and introduce differently problematic behaviour into the orbit of the discipline. Finally, part four looks ahead to set the agenda for the future relationship between feminism and criminology. Comprehensive and current, this handbook provides fresh insight and commentary on the capacity of criminology to listen to feminist voices and is essential reading for anyone interested in feminism, criminology and social change.

Heather McCulloch is a mother of three and an elementary school teacher, and she teaches the Kids 4 Christ group at her church. McCulloch has always dreamed of writing children's books, but she never knew that God would call her to write a devotional soon after the birth of her third child. "This book was truly a work of God," she says. "He just used my hands to write His words. I praise Him and thank Him for pushing me to use the gift He gave me." While writing God's Little Creatures, McCulloch knew that God had called her to use her talents to reach others for His glory. Her children love this devotional book and ask her to read it to them every night.

Описание:
The Way of a Seabird is the story of a real life adventure.
Malcolm McCulloch at age forty-two was an airline captain at the top of his game. He had eighteen years left to serve in his career with Air Canada.
He also had dreams and aspirations for his life, which could only be realized by resigning from his lucrative occupation and allowing himself to interact with events randomly and spontaneously.
The author invites his readers to share the entirety of this thirty-year, inspirational journey as it unfolds throughout the book.
The narrative, teeming with anecdotes and sprinkled with the author's unique philosophy is a study of the determination never to lose track of life's short but noble experiment.
