Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I wonder how many times you’ve said to yourself, “If only I could live my life again”? Well, if you’re anything like me, then you’ve asked this hundreds of times. But we can’t live our lives over. It’s as plain and simple as that! We should all remember the best moments of our past life and enjoy the moment we are living in right now. This little book has its roots in life – the real life of me and my little dog, Mumps. Set against the backdrop of many weekends spent beavering away at the national pastime of car booting, Catch Mumps at the Boot Sale is full of anecdotes, suspense, and tragedy. A good dose of humour is thrown in for good measure. Life is humorous. If only we could see the funny side of things, no matter how bad it gets. Any doctor will tell you that laughter is one of the best medicines he or she can prescribe, so why not grab yourself a dose by dipping into this little novel? Not laughing is for your wife when you ask her if you can borrow her lipstick because your girlfriend has smudged hers on your best white collar! This novel is not one of those books where you have to plough through pages and pages of description to get to the point. The chapters in this book are succinct, single doses. They are to be injected straight into your funny bone whenever you need a dose. Enjoy!

This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theories of performativity have garnered considerable attention within the social sciences and humanities over the past two decades. At the same time, there has also been a growing recognition that the social production of space is fundamental to assertions of political authority and the practices of everyday life. However, comparatively little scholarship has explored the full implications that arise from the confluence of these two streams of social and political thought. This is the first book-length, edited collection devoted explicitly to showcasing geographical scholarship on the spatial politics of performativity. It offers a timely intervention within the field of critical human geography by exploring the performativity of political spaces and the spatiality of performative politics. Through a series of geographical case studies, the contributors to this volume consider the ways in which a performative conception of the "political" might reshape our understanding of sovereignty, political subjectification, and the production of social space. Marking the 20th anniversary of the publication of Judith Butler’s classic, Bodies That Matter (1993), this edited volume brings together a range of contemporary geographical works that draw exciting new connections between performativity, space, and politics.
