Vardalos

My Life in Ruins
$29.98
I have a degree in Art History, so maybe I'm biased about Greek antiquities and can relate to the life of a tour guide. But really this film was hilarious and really entertaining. Sadly it seems like Nia Vardalos has been 'dismissed' for not coming out with another Big Fat Greek Wedding (even though she still works with many actors from that cast), when really she's got so much more to offer comedically then just a mere sequel. This movie is definitely about finding one's self during circumstances one would rather change. It's about stepping back, letting things happen, and enjoy life as a result; NOT about trying to control what's beyond our control. Stopping to smell the roses, even when they're not there. The actors in the tour group are a laugh out loud riot. And Richard Dreyfuss goes from being a grumpy old man to lovable in the blink of an eye. Great movie, great acting.

Engaging Terror: A Critical and Interdisciplinary Approach
$34.95
Engaging Terror: A Critical and Interdisciplinary Approach is a collection of select extended papers drawn from The Human Condition Series (THCS) conference on Terror that took place in May, 2008. The international scope of the conference drew participants from twenty-three countries including Brazil, Columbia, Cuba, France, Israel, Lebanon, Lithuania, New Zealand, Nigeria, Pakistan, the Philippines, Scotland, Singapore, South Africa, Turkey, and the United Kingdom. The thirty-five essays presented here are a representative sample of the interdisciplinary discussion which sought to analyze popular concepts like 'terrorism' and 'terrorist' as social, political, and psychosocial phenomena. Engaging Terror seeks to reveal the diverse forms of terror that persist in contemporary societies. For instance, cultural forms such as the fine arts, film, literature, mass media, religion, and market economy continue to define and limit rationality and freedom through institutionalized forms of terror. In this way, terror shapes our experiences not only through the politics of nation-building and international relations, but also through the social and ideological production of fear in everyday life. Topics covered in this volume include the representation and production of terror from a multiplicity of sites, ranging from mental health practices and organized religion, to news coverage and musical scores. This book will appeal to both scholars and general readers interested in how seemingly benign forms of terror shape and maintain the contemporary human condition. Reaching beyond mainstream studies on terror as simply an international political phenomenon, this interdisciplinary collection of work multiplies the fields of critical research to broaden the scope of analysis and fundamentally challenge the state of modernity.
