      Wales and the British overseas empire

      Interactions and influences, 1650–1830

      by H.V. Bowen

      This unique collection of essays is the first book to explore the many relationships that developed between Wales and the British overseas empire between 1650 and 1830. Written by leading specialists in the field, the essays explore economic, social, cultural, political, and religious interactions between Wales and the empire. The geographical coverage is very broad, with examinations of the contributions made by Wales to expansion in the Atlantic world, Caribbean, and South Asia. The book explores Welsh influences on the emergence of 'British' imperialism, as well as the impact that the empire had upon the development of Wales itself. The book will be of interest to academic historians, postgraduate students, and undergraduates. It will be indispensable to those interested in the history of Wales, Britain, and the empire, as well as those who wish to compare Welsh imperial experiences with those of the English, Irish, and Scots.

      Yourself and Others as Tourists

      by David Bowen

      This fully updated edition responds to themes emerging over the decade since publication of the first edition and transmits the content into the 2020s.

Examples are introduced from all parts of the world, capturing the explosion of research on tourist behaviour, to produce a text that is strong both on theory and practical application. The second edition: - Compares classic and contemporary studies. - Evaluates recently emergent themes. - Discusses worldwide examples. - Contains extensive use of figures/tables and full colour photographic images. This is the go-to text for students and academics interested in tourist behaviour both from within the tourism field and from other fields and disciplines.

      Schizophrenie und Familie

      by Hans-Werner Saß, Caspar Kulenkampff

      Die in diesem Band enthaltenen Texte »sind das Ergebnis jahrelanger Forschungen mehrerer unabhängig voneinander arbeitenden Teams, denen Psychoanalytiker, klinische Psychiater, Lerntheoretiker und Kulturanthropologen angehört haben. Einige beschäftigen sich mehr mit Kommunikationsstilen (Bateson, Wynne), andere mehr mit der Familie als sozialem System (Lidz), andere wieder mit der Motivation pathogenen Elternverhaltens (Searles, Bowen, Vogel). Immer sind aber alle drei Aspekte, wenngleich mit verschiedenem Schwergewicht, miteinander verbunden. Das Kernstück des Buches ist die Batesonsche Lehre vom sogenannten ›double-bind‹ als Schizophrenie produzierendem Kommunikationsstil, was sich am ehesten mit ›Beziehungsfalle‹ oder ›Zwickmühlensituation‹ übersetzen läßt«.
