Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A collection of prose poetry, exercises, lists and visual art that both lampoons and fully embraces self-help techniques. Michael Gillan Maxwell has found a balance between the absurd, the beautifully profound and the crushing. The Part Time Shaman Handbook, is just that, a handbook for the person who doesn't take themselves too seriously, but who also likes to dance naked in the dark, make music, commune with crows, cats, loons, coyotes, packs of wolves and other power animals, spirit guides, passing trains, cars on the distant highway, stars in the heavens, waves crashing on the shore, thunder and lightning and all of the above. The mix of Maxwell's original artwork with pieces of writing are moving, but also gut-busting at times. Perhaps even a few tears will be shed by the aspiring part- time shamans who fall under the spell of this wonderful book. There's nothing like it.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Much of the discussion of India in the public sphere has focused on economic policy settings and restructuring, annual growth rates, trade relations and the nation's status as an economic and political actor within the international system. This collection considers other dimensions of socio-economic transformation in India and its profound impact on society and nature. While economic and ecological fragility are now very apparently problems of a 'global' scale they are nevertheless grounded and experienced at the local scale where vulnerable and marginal people located in the urban periphery and in rural areas confront these 'crises' most acutely.The studies in this collection encompass many of the most important social and political concerns of India in this age of crisis, namely, the politics of water resources and land acquisition and use; the interaction between food security, markets, and institutions; the politics and strategies of labour movements; narratives and practices of 'development' and contestation over forms of agrarian production in India; the link between urbanisation and local class, caste and political actors; and the potential for civil society to either be co-opted or to contest neoliberal logics and forms of governance. This book was published as a special issue of South Asia: Journal of South Asian Studies.
