Does Freud still have something to teach us? The premise of this volume is that he most certainly does. Approaching Freud from not only the philosophical but also historical, psychoanalytical, anthropological, & sociological perspectives, the contributors show us how Freud gave us a new & powerful way to think about human thought & action. They consider the context of Freud`s thought & the structure of his arguments to reveal how he made sense of ranges of experience generally neglected or misunderstood. All the central topics of Freud`s work, from sexuality & neurosis to morality, art, & culture are covered. ...

The arresting cover of this A-Z book tells us much about London's workhouse, Camden Town. It pictures part of the depot for the Birmingham to Euston Railway
- the two chimneys relate to machinery which pulled carriages up by cable from Euston for connection to the early steam engines at Camden. Camden Town's history exemplifies inner London areas: a settlement transformed in the 19th century by railways & industry leading to overcrowded dereliction, but revamped by late 20th century gentrification. Camden now sports flourishing markets. A vivid, fascinating area brought to life in this book.

In the late nineteenth century & early twentieth, hundreds of amateur photographers took part in the photographic survey movement in Engl&. They sought to record the material remains of the English past so that it might be preserved for future generations. In The Camera as Historian, the groundbreaking historical & visual anthropologist Elizabeth Edwards works with an archive of nearly 55, 000 photographs taken by 1, 000 photographers, mostly unknown until now. She approaches the survey movement & its social & material practices ethnographically. Considering how the amateur photographers understood the value of their project, Edwards links the surveys to the rise of popular photography, concepts of leisure, & understandings of the local & the national. Her examination of how the photographers negotiated between scientific objectivity & aesthetic responses to the past leads her to argue that the survey movement was as concerned with the conditions of its own modernity & the creation of an archive for an anticipated future as it was nostalgic about the imagined past. Including more than 120 duotone images, The Camera as Historian offers new perspectives on the forces that shaped Victorian & Edwardian Britain, as well as contemporary debates about cultural identity, nationality, empire, material practices, & art. ...
