简介：Corsaro (sociology, Indiana U.) offers an interpretive perspective on the sociology of childhood, which is contrasted with more traditional socialization or outcome perspectives. He places the new sociology of childhood in historical and cultural context, then discusses the importance of children's peer cultures for a new sociology of childhood. New to this third edition is expanded discussion of children's introduction to symbolic and material aspects of peer culture and the impact of new technologies such as cell phones and social networking sites on peer culture. A final section looks at social problems of children, such as poverty and violence around the world. B&w photos and an extensive glossary are included. This third edition contains new case studies of children's dramatic play and new data on children's quality of life around the world. Pine Forge Press is an imprint of SAGE Publications.

简介：Summary: Publisher Summary 1 Logistic regression is a generalized linear model used for binomial regression for the purposes of predicting the probability of occurrence of an event by fitting data to a logistic curve. In this text, Menard (Sam Houston State U.) goes beyond his earlier monograph, Applied Logistic Regression Analysis (Sage, 2002), by offering more detailed discussion of technical details and practical applications. The text introduces logistic regression analysis from the perspectives of ordinary least squares linear regression analysis and log-linear analysis, deals with global model statistics, discusses interpretation of coefficients and inferential statistics for individual predictors in logistic regression, examines the diagnosis of and remedies for the problems in the dichotomous logistic regression model, details how path analysis can be applied in the logistic regression framework with categorical dependent and intervening variables as well as predictors, deals with logistic regression for polytomous dependent variables, discusses adjustments to the logistic regression model when data involve clustered or other dependent samples (including contextual dependencies), describes the use of logistic regression analysis for longitudinal data with few and many repeated measurements, examines multilevel change models and event history analysis using the proportional odds logistic regression model to model the relationship between categorical dependent variables and time dimensions, and briefly compares logistic regression to other methods of analysis such as probit models and discriminant analysis. A background in basic statistics through ordinary least squares regression is the minimal prerequisite, but background in multiple regression analysis and log-linear analysis will aid in understanding. Annotation 漏2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) Publisher Summary 2 In this text, author Scott Menard provides coverage of not only the basic logistic regression model but also advanced topics found in no other logistic regression text. The book keeps mathematical notation to a minimum, making it accessible to those with more limited statistics backgrounds, while including advanced topics of interest to more statistically sophisticated readers. Not dependent on any one software package, the book discusses limitations to existing software packages and ways to overcome them. Key Features聽聽聽Examines the logistic regression model in detailIllustrates concepts with applied examples to help readers understand how concepts are translated into the logistic regression model聽Helps readers make decisions about the criteria for evaluating logistic regression models through detailed coverage of how to assess overall models and individual predictors for categorical dependent variables聽Offers unique coverage of path analysis with logistic regression that shows readers how to examine both direct and indirect effects using logistic regression analysis聽Applies logistic regression analysis to longitudinal panel data, helping students understand the issues in measuring change with dichotomous, nominal, and ordinal dependent variablesShows readers how multilevel change models with logistic regression are different from multilevel growth curve models for continuous interval or ratio-scaled dependent variablesLogistic Regression is intended for courses such as Regression and Correlation, Intermediate/Advanced Statistics, and Quantitative Methods taught in departments throughout the behavioral, health, mathematical, and social sciences, including applied mathematics/statistics, biostatistics, criminology/criminal justice, education, political science, public health/epidemiology, psychology, and sociology.

简介：What difference does it make to think about the economy in geographical terms? The SAGE Handbook of Economic Geography illustrates the significance of thinking the 'economy' and the 'economic' geographically. It identifies significant stages in the discipline's development, and focuses on the key themes and ideas that inform present thinking in economic geography. Organized in sections with multiple chapters, The SAGE Handbook of Economic Geography is a complete overview of the discipline that critically assesses location, the quantitative revolution, the new economic geography; geographies of globalization -- making sense of globalization and its consequences; the geography of capitalism; geographies of scale and place: local and global, space and place; geographies of nature: agriculture; sustainable development; the political ecology and the social construction of nature; geographies of uneven development: economic decli≠ technology; money and finance; geographies of consumption and services: formal and informal spaces of consumption; the culture industries; performance and geographies of regulation and governance: neo-liberalism, regulation, welfare. Placing the discipline in vivid historical and contemporary context, The SAGE Handbook of Economic Geography is a timely, essential work for graduates, researchers and academics in economic geography.

简介：Using a practical, preventative approach the authors isolate sources of personal and organizational stress, that have been identified in some of the staff employed in the social and human services. The conclusion of the authors is that stress management involves individual choice. This centres around the question of whether or not one decides to become a victim of one's job, family, or other interpersonal relationships or situations. It has been stated that the effectiveness of a worker is directly related to his or her level of self-awareness. A decision to deal with stress positively is the responsibility of each individual. The book focuses on those issues that produce occupational stress, and ways of reducing such stress. The principles outlined in this volume of the series SAGE Human Services Guides are applicable beyond human services, to public administration and business. It will be a useful guide to recognizing and helping to combat stress.

简介：

The Politics of Upheaval, 1935-1936, volume three of PulitzerPrize-winning historian and biographer Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr."sAge of Roosevelt series, concentrates on the turbulent concludingyears of Franklin D. Roosevelt's first term. A measure of economicrecovery revived political conflict and emboldened FDR's critics todenounce "that man in the White house." To his left were demagoguesHuey Long, Father Coughlin, and Dr. Townsend. To his right were thechampions of the old order ex-president Herbert Hoover, theAmerican Liberty League, and the august Supreme Court. For a time,the New Deal seemed to lose its momentum. But in 1935 FDR ralliedand produced a legislative record even more impressive than theHundred Days of 1933 a set of statutes that transformed the socialand economic landscape of American life. In 1936 FDR coasted toreelection on a landslide. Schlesinger has his usual touch withcolorful personalities and draws a warmly sympathetic portrait ofAlf M. Landon, the Republican candidate of 1936.

简介：　　This book facilitates the introduction of SAGE into the laboratory and provides a framework for interpreting and comparing data derived from SAGE experiments. SAGE studies encompass 50,000 tags and can provide detailed knowledge of the 2000 most highly expressed genes in the tissue sample. The SAGE protocols presented are detailed, fully annotated, and tested, and are all written by experienced SAGE researchers from around the world. 　　Serial Analysis of Gene Expression (SAGE): Digital Gene Expression Profiling facilitates the introduction of SAGE into the laboratory, and provides a framework for interpreting and comparing data derived from SAGE experiments. Of the several methods of genetic profiling available, only SAGE measures the expression of both known and unknown genes. SAGE studies encompass 50,000 tags and can provide detailed knowledge of the 2000 most highly expressed genes in the tissue sample. The SAGE protocols presented are detailed, fully annotated, and tested, and are all written by experienced SAGE researchers from around the world. Part 1 is dedicated to experimental procedures of SAGE and related methods including aRNA LongSAGE, SuperSAGE, DeepSAGE, and GMAT. Part 2 provides methods for extraction and filtration of tags, analysis of ditag populations, and completing statistically correct comparisons of gene expression profiles. 　　Comparative transcriptomics enables scientists to understand the underlying genetics of biological changes such as development, disease, crop yield, and resistance. SAGE analysis is also used to obtain unknown tags, which can be used as gene-specific primers in Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends (RACE) reactions to generate full-length transcripts for cloning and sequencing. This book will be an indispensable tool for any lab engaged in genetic profiling and comparative transcriptomics, and will help many laboratories to successfully implement tag-based sequencing methods and procedures and obtain comprehensive, useful, and interpretative data.
