| textbook meme: Meme Wars Kalle Lasn, Adbusters, 2013-01-15 From the editor and magazine that started and named the Occupy Wall Street movement, Meme Wars: The Creative Destruction of Neoclassical Economics is an articulation of what could be the next steps in rethinking and remaking our world that challenges and debunks many of the assumptions of neoclassical economics and brings to light a more ecological model. Meme Wars aims to accelerate the shift into this new paradigm that takes into account psychonomics, bionomics, and other aspects of our physical and mental environment that are often left out in discussions of economics. Like Adbusters, the book will be image heavy and full-color throughout. Lasn calls it a textbook for the future that provides the building blocks, in texts and visuals, for a new way of looking at and changing our world. Through an examination of alternative economies, Lasn hopes to spur students to become barefoot economists and to see that a humanization of economics is possible. Meme Wars will include contributions from Nobel Prize winner Joseph Stiglitz, Paul Samuelson, George Akerlof, Lourdes Benería, Julie Matthaei, Manfred Max-Neef, David Orrell, Paul Gilding, Mathis Wackernagel and the father of ecological economics Herman Daly, among others. Based on ideas that were presented in a special issue of Adbusters entitled Thought Control in Economics: Beyond the Growth Paradigm / An Activist Toolkit, Meme Wars will help move forward the Occupy Wall Street movement. |
| textbook meme: The Meme Machine Susan J. Blackmore, 2000-03-16 Humans are extraordinary creatures, with the unique ability among animals to imitate and so copy from one another ideas, habits, skills, behaviours, inventions, songs, and stories. These are all memes, a term first coined by Richard Dawkins in 1976 in his book The Selfish Gene. Memes, like genes, are replicators, and this enthralling book is an investigation of whether this link between genes and memes can lead to important discoveries about the nature of the inner self.Confronting the deepest questions about our inner selves, with all our emotions, memories, beliefs, and decisions, Susan Blackmore makes a compelling case for the theory that the inner self is merely an illusion created by the memes for the sake of replication. |
| textbook meme: The Discursive Power of Memes in Digital Culture Bradley E. Wiggins, 2019-02-25 Shared, posted, tweeted, commented upon, and discussed online as well as off-line, internet memes represent a new genre of online communication, and an understanding of their production, dissemination, and implications in the real world enables an improved ability to navigate digital culture. This book explores cases of cultural, economic, and political critique levied by the purposeful production and consumption of internet memes. Often images, animated GIFs, or videos are remixed in such a way to incorporate intertextual references, quite frequently to popular culture, alongside a joke or critique of some aspect of the human experience. Ideology, semiotics, and intertextuality coalesce in the book’s argument that internet memes represent a new form of meaning-making, and the rapidity by which they are produced and spread underscores their importance. |

| textbook meme: The Selfish Gene Richard Dawkins, 1989 Science need not be dull and bogged down by jargon, as Richard Dawkins proves in this entertaining look at evolution. The themes he takes up are the concepts of altruistic and selfish behaviour; the genetical definition of selfish interest; the evolution of aggressive behaviour; kinshiptheory; sex ratio theory; reciprocal altruism; deceit; and the natural selection of sex differences. 'Should be read, can be read by almost anyone. It describes with great skill a new face of the theory of evolution.' W.D. Hamilton, Science |

| textbook meme: A Unified Theory of Cats on the Internet E.J. White, 2020-07-21 This cultural history reveals how cats became the undisputed mascot of the internet—“an essential look at life online” (Ryan Milner, author of The World Made Meme). Journalists and their readers seem to need no explanation for the line, “The internet is made of cats.” Everyone understands the joke, but few know how it started. A Unified Theory of Cats on the Internet is the first book to explore the history of how the cat became the internet’s best friend. Internet cats can differ in dramatic ways, from the goth cats of Twitter to the glamourpusses of Instagram to the giddy, nonsensical silliness of Nyan Cat. But they all share common traits and values. Bringing together fun anecdotes, thoughtful analyses, and hidden histories of the communities that built the internet, Elyse White shows how japonisme, punk culture, cute culture, and the battle among different communities for the soul of the internet informed the sensibility of online felines. Internet cats offer a playful and useful way to understand how culture shapes—and is shaped by—technology. Western culture has used cats for centuries as symbols of darkness, pathos, and alienation. The communities that helped build the internet represented themselves as outsiders, with snark and alienation at the core of their identity. Thus cats became the sine qua non of cultural literacy for the Extremely Online, as well as an everyday medium of expression for the rest of us. Whatever direction the internet takes next, the “series of tubes” is likely to remain cat-shaped. |
| textbook meme: The Body Economic David Stuckler, Sanjay Basu, 2013-05-21 Politicians have talked endlessly about the seismic economic and social impacts of the recent financial crisis, but many continue to ignore its disastrous effects on human health—and have even exacerbated them, by adopting harsh austerity measures and cutting key social programs at a time when constituents need them most. The result, as pioneering public health experts David Stuckler and Sanjay Basu reveal in this provocative book, is that many countries have turned their recessions into veritable epidemics, ruining or extinguishing thousands of lives in a misguided attempt to balance budgets and shore up financial markets. Yet sound alternative policies could instead help improve economies and protect public health at the same time. In The Body Economic, Stuckler and Basu mine data from around the globe and throughout history to show how government policy becomes a matter of life and death during financial crises. In a series of historical case studies stretching from 1930s America, to Russia and Indonesia in the 1990s, to present-day Greece, Britain, Spain, and the U.S., Stuckler and Basu reveal that governmental mismanagement of financial strife has resulted in a grim array of human tragedies, from suicides to HIV infections. Yet people can and do stay healthy, and even get healthier, during downturns. During the Great Depression, U.S. deaths actually plummeted, and today Iceland, Norway, and Japan are happier and healthier than ever, proof that public wellbeing need not be sacrificed for fiscal health. Full of shocking and counterintuitive revelations and bold policy recommendations, The Body Economic offers an alternative to austerity—one that will prevent widespread suffering, both now and in the future. |
| textbook meme: Textbook for the United life supporting Medicine Bodo Koehler, 2021-10-26 This textbook sets new standards in the diagnosis and therapy of chronically ill people. The research results of important scientists were put into practice. The book shows the way for a long overdue union of conventional medicine and naturopathy. This step leads to another dimension of medicine, by integrating new, synergistic methods. This results in a higher quality with simultaneous cost efficiency, which can initiate the necessary paradigm shift: from specialist to generalist, who can grasp overarching relationships. Quantum mechanics has made a significant contribution to this and opened up new perspectives. The author Dr Bodo Koehler, MD, as an internist with extensive additional training in naturopathy, has more than 45 years of experience in clinic and his own practice. Through intensive research with a focus on biophysics and the exchange with many top-class scientists, he has acquired a comprehensive knowledge. In addition to several specialist books and over 150 publications, this has resulted in his own therapeutic methods and the development of medical products. The author is active as a lecturer at home and abroad. |
| textbook meme: Ditch That Textbook Matt Miller, 2015-04-13 Textbooks are symbols of centuries-old education. They're often outdated as soon as they hit students' desks.

| textbook meme: Analysis III Herbert Amann, Joachim Escher, 2009-04-21 This third volume concludes our introduction to analysis, wherein we ?nish laying the groundwork needed for further study of the subject. As with the ?rst two, this volume contains more material than can treated in a single course. It is therefore important in preparing lectures to choose a suitable subset of its content; the remainder can be treated in seminars or left to independent study. For a quick overview of this content, consult the table of contents and the chapter introductions. Thisbookisalsosuitableasbackgroundforothercoursesorforselfstudy. We hope that its numerous glimpses into more advanced analysis will arouse curiosity and so invite students to further explore the beauty and scope of this branch of mathematics. In writing this volume, we counted on the invaluable help of friends, c- leagues, sta?, and students. Special thanks go to Georg Prokert, Pavol Quittner, Olivier Steiger, and Christoph Walker, who worked through the entire text cr- ically and so helped us remove errors and make substantial improvements. Our thanks also goes out to Carlheinz Kneisel and Bea Wollenmann, who likewise read the majority of the manuscript and pointed out various inconsistencies. Without the inestimable e?ortofour “typesetting perfectionist”, this volume could not have reached its present form: her tirelessness and patience with T X E and other software brought not only the end product, but also numerous previous versions,to a high degree of perfection. For this contribution, she has our greatest thanks. |

| textbook meme: TEXTBOOK OF ANIMAL BEHAVIOUR, FOURTH EDITION MANDAL, FATIK BARAN, 2025-02-01 This well-accepted book, now in its Fourth Edition, is a need-based extension of the previous book. The text is further enriched with more information to understand animal behaviour coherently and scientifically. In the new edition, the book introduces its readers with the recent topics, such as eusociality, social learning, imitation, ritualization, mating, sexual cannibalism, gravireception, and magnetoreception. The book attempts to provide a reasonably suitable account of animal behaviour for undergraduate and postgraduate students. Although the behaviour of animals has fascinated people for a long time, behavioural biology has been introduced into syllabi very recently. The study of behaviour received its important boost from the work of Charles Darwin who used the term 'instinct', to refer to the natural behaviour of animals. In the 1930s, a comprehensive theory of animal behaviour emerged through the work of Konrad Lorenz and, later by Niko Tinbergen. Biological study of behaviour, in fact, came of age as a science when Lorenz, Tinbergen, and Karl von Frisch received the Nobel Prize for their contribution to science. Observing and describing exactly what animals do is fascinating, and scientific analysis of their behaviour is significant for several reasons. Each species tends to have an array of stereotyped behaviours, some of which are shared with related species, but others are unique. Ecology, natural selection, macroevolution, microevolution, and genes constitute the foundation of animal behaviour. Various animal groups exhibit diverse strategies for survival and reproduction which are discussed in this book. KEY FEATURES • Presents a well-balanced view of ethology. • Discusses current developments, challenges, and prospects in the field. • Includes a glossary of important terms. • Offers chapter-end questions to check students' understanding of the concept. TARGET AUDIENCE • B.Sc. (Biology) • M.Sc. (Zoology/Life Sciences) • Sociology and Anthropology |

It shares the business skills, techniques and wisdom gleaned from twenty-five years of experience. |
| textbook meme: Alfred Marshall's Last Challenge Katia Caldari, Tamotsu Nishizawa, 2023-04-24 This text presents Alfred Marshall's final, unfinished, and unpublished book. His main volume, Principles of Economics, was first published in 1890, and was, for a long period of time, the textbook par excellence on which generations of economists were trained. Despite its success and its importance, the book, in its eight editions, testifies to some extent to the failure of Marshall's original editorial project which should have consisted of multiple volumes and culminated with the publication of a final work on economic progress. Marshall's death in 1924 made it impossible to realize his project, but many notes written for it have survived. These notes, collected here, constitute a fundamental element in fully understanding the thought and perspectives of this great economist and in appreciating his great modernity and wisdom. |
| textbook meme: Language Arts Unit: A Rap Textbook Rhys Langston Podell, 2020-01-16 Language Arts Unit: A Rap Textbook is an exploration of rap as theory and praxis, race as form and content, music as social mobilizer and opiate. In a winding, discursive prefatory note Rhys Langston Podell utilizes a biting, absurdist humor to seriously appraise the power of words, music, and all manner of extra-lingual connotations in the age of rapid-transit information technologies. As the written half of a multimedia project, what follows are the lyrics from his long play album, written as poems with the clever enjambment of his characteristically idiosyncratic wordplay. Taken together, the prose and verse of Language Arts Unit present two forms talking between themselves as a product and response to the context of their creation: in one aspect, to write a lyric essay with sentences as bars, proposing a new, verbose sense of realness in a take-no-prisoners rapper's ethos of [trash]-talking between paragraphs; from another angle, to craft a rap album of nuance and expressionist poetics, proposing the form as an essential means of delivering ideas, one able to communicate complexities on various levels of understanding and comprehension. |
| textbook meme: The New Politics of the Textbook Heather Hickman, Brad J. Porfilio, 2012-10-13 In an age of unprecedented corporate and political control over life inside of educational institutions, this book provides a needed intervention to investigate how the economic and political elite use traditional artifacts in K-16 schools to perpetuate their interests at the expense of minoritized social groups. The contributors provide a comprehensive examination of how textbooks, the most dominant cultural force in which corporations and political leaders impact the schooling curricula, shape students’ thoughts and behavior, perpetuate power in dominant groups, and trivialize social groups who are oppressed on the structural axes of race, class, gender, sexuality, and (dis)ability. Several contributors also generate critical insight in how power shapes the production of textbooks and evaluate whether textbooks still perpetuate dominant Western narratives that normalize and privilege patriotism, militarism, consumerism, White supremacy, heterosexism, rugged individualism, technology, and a positivistic conception of the world. Finally, the book highlights several textbooks that challenge readers to rethink their stereotypical views of the Other, to reflect upon the constitutive forces causing oppression in schools and in the wider society, and to reflect upon how to challenge corporate and political dominance over knowledge production. |

Edwards, Nick Weldon, 2021-02 Depicted as a graphic history and informed by newly discovered primary sources and years of archival research, Monumental resurrects, in vivid detail, Louisiana and New Orleans after the Civil War, and an iconic American life that never should have been forgotten. The graphic history is supplemented with personal and historiographical essays as well as a map, timeline, and endnotes that explore the riveting scenes in even greater depth. Monumental is a story of determination, scandal, betrayal-and how one man's principled fight for equality and justice may have cost him everything-- |

| textbook meme: Terrorism and Communication Jonathan Matusitz, 2012-08-30 Based on the premise that terrorism is essentially a message, Terrorism and Communication: A Critical Introduction examines terrorism from a communication perspective—making it the first text to offer a complete picture of the role of communication in terrorist activity. Through the extensive examination of state-of-the-art research on terrorism as well as recent case studies and speech excerpts, communication and terrorism scholar Jonathan Matusitz explores the ways that terrorists communicate messages through actions and discourse. Using a multifaceted approach, he draws valuable insights from relevant disciplines, including mass communication, political communication, and visual communication, as he illustrates the key role that media outlets play in communicating terrorists′ objectives and examines the role of global communication channels in both spreading and combating terrorism. This is an essential introduction to understanding what terrorism is, how it functions primarily through communication, how we talk about it, and how we prevent it. |

| textbook meme: Multiple Representations in Biological Education David F. Treagust, Chi-Yan Tsui, 2013-02-01 This new publication in the Models and Modeling in Science Education series synthesizes a wealth of international research on using multiple representations in biology education and aims for a coherent framework in using them to improve higher-order learning. Addressing a major gap in the literature, the volume proposes a theoretical model for advancing biology educators’ notions of how multiple external representations (MERs) such as analogies, metaphors and visualizations can best be harnessed for improving teaching and learning in biology at all pedagogical levels. The content tackles the conceptual and linguistic difficulties of learning biology at each level—macro, micro, sub-micro, and symbolic, illustrating how MERs can be used in teaching across these levels and in various combinations, as well as in differing contexts and topic areas. The strategies outlined will help students’ reasoning and problem-solving skills, enhance their ability to construct mental models and internal representations, and, ultimately, will assist in increasing public understanding of biology-related issues, a key goal in today’s world of pressing concerns over societal problems about food, environment, energy, and health. The book concludes by highlighting important aspects of research in biological education in the post-genomic, information age. |
