Self-Made Men Widening Participation, Selfhood and First-in-Family Males

Self-Made Men Widening Participation, Selfhood and First-in-Family Males
Self-Made Men: Widening Participation, Selfhood and First-in-Family Males
English | 2022 | ISBN: 3031079531 | 341 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 2 MB
This book explores how boys from low-socioeconomic status backgrounds disengage from their education, and are resultantly severely underrepresented in post-compulsory education. For those who attend university, many will be first-in-their-family. As first-in-family students, they may encounter significant barriers which may limit their participation in university life and their acquisition of social and cultural capital. Drawing on a longitudinal study of young Australian men pursuing higher education, the book provides the first detailed account of socially mobile working-class masculinities. Investigating the experiences of these young men, this book analyses their acclimatisation to new learning environments as well as their changing subjectivities. The monograph draws on various sociological theories to analyse empirical data and make practical recommendations which will drive innovation in widening participation initiatives internationally. This book will be of interest to scholars interested in widening participation, transitions, social mobility and Critical Studies of Men and Masculinities.

Self-Improvement Technologies of the Soul in the Age of Artificial Intelligence

Self-Improvement Technologies of the Soul in the Age of Artificial Intelligence
Mark Coeckelbergh, "Self-Improvement: Technologies of the Soul in the Age of Artificial Intelligence (No Limits)"
English | ISBN: 0231206542, 0231206550 | 2022 | EPUB | 152 pages | 2 MB
We are obsessed with self-improvement; it's a billion-dollar industry. But apps, workshops, speakers, retreats, and life hacks have not made us happier. Obsessed with the endless task of perfecting ourselves, we have become restless, anxious, and desperate. We are improving ourselves to death. The culture of self-improvement stems from philosophical classics, perfectionist religions, and a ruthless strain of capitalism-but today, new technologies shape what it means to improve the self. The old humanist culture has given way to artificial intelligence, social media, and big dаta: powerful tools that do not only inform us but also measure, compare, and perhaps change us forever.

Reviews of Physiology Biochemistry and Pharmacology, Volume 134
Reviews of Physiology Biochemistry and Pharmacology, Volume 134 By Richard A. Murphy (auth.)

The objectives in this special issue are (1) to critically review current information on the mechanisms coupling extracellular regulatory signals to regulation of cross-bridge cycling and proliferation in smooth muscle, and (2) identify significant gaps or unresolved issues that are important topics for future research. The experimental and analytical difficulties discussed above are increasingly recognized and surmounted. Elucidation of the molecular and cellular events underlying the biologal properties of smooth muscle is in the midst of a period of rapid progress. While the reviews reveal many gaps to be filled and illustrate areas of contention, they also capture the excitement of new discoveries.
