As a result of technological and methodological progress in archaeology, mobility has become increasingly visible on the level of the individual. However, as a concept it does not seem to fit with current approaches in Amazonian archaeology, which favour a move away from viewing small mobile groups as models for the deeper past. Instead of ignoring such ethnographic tyrannies, in this book they are considered to be essential for arriving at a different past. 9789088900983, £33.00, Available Now PB, 330p, 43 b/w & 71 col illus, Sidestone Press The story of ethnographic collecting is one of crosscultural encounters. This book focuses on collecting encounters in the Kamoro region of Papua from the earliest collections made in 1828 until 2011. Exploring the links between representation and collecting, the author focuses on the creative and pragmatic agency of Kamoro people in these collecting encounters. By considering objects as visualizations of social relations, and as enactments of personal, social or historical narrative, this book combines filling a gap in the literature on Kamoro culture with an interest in broader questions that surround the nature of ethnographic collecting, representation, patronage and objectification. 9789088900884, £30.00, Available Now PB, 280p, 10 b/w, 36 col images, 182 x 257mm Sidestone Press
Intergenerational transmission of criminal and violent behaviour Sytske Besemer (Author) This dissertation investigates mechanisms that might explain why children with criminal parents have a higher risk of committing crime. Sytske Besemer investigated this in England as well as in the Netherlands. She answers questions such as: does it matter when the parents committed crime in the child’s life? Do more persistent offenders transmit crime more than sporadic offenders? Do violent offenders specifically transmit violent behaviour or general crime to their children? Might the police and courts be biased against certain families? Could a deprived environment explain why parents as well as children show criminal behaviour? Does parental imprisonment pose an extra risk? This dissertation is the first study to specifically investigate these mechanisms of intergenerational continuity. 9789088901010, £30.00, February 2013 PB, 198p, 182 x 257 mm, 5 fc, 7 b/w illus, Sidestone Press Personality Dynamics Meaning Construction, the Social World, and the Embodied Mind Tomasz Maruszewski (Editor); Malgorzata Fajkowska (Editor); Michael W. Eysenck (Editor); Daniel Cervone (Editor) This series grows out of the Biennial Symposia on Personality and Social Psychology (BSPSP; http://www.bspsp.edu.pl), which are intended to become a regular forum for psychologists and representatives of allied disciplines. The goal of BSPSP is to understand and analyze the integrative approach to studying human psychology. The growing achievements of psychology allow us to conceptualize, measure, and influence complex behavior. Research has become more specialized, resulting in difficulties in communication and collaboration. BSPSP is an important forum for cross-disciplinary discussions concerning important aspects of the human brain and mind.
