Paperback / softback. New. What is a house And what can architecture tell us about individual psychology national character and aspiration The house holds a central place in American mythology as Marilyn Chandler demonstrates in a series of "house tours" through American novels beginning with Thoreau's Walden and ending with Toni Morrison's Beloved and Marilynne Robinson's Housekeeping. Chandler illuminates the complex analogies between house and psyche house and family house and social environment and house and text. She traces a historical path from settlement to unsettledness in American culture and explores all the rituals in between: of building decorating inhabiting and abandoning houses. She notes the ambivalence between our desire for rootedness and our romanticization of wide open spaces relating these poles to the tension between materialism and spirituality in our national character. At a time when housing has become a problem of unprecedented dimensions in America this look at the place of houses and homes in the American imagination reveals some sources of the attitudes assumptions and expectations that underlie the designing and building of the homes we buy sell and dream about.

Avian influenza viruses are highly species-specific but have on rare occasions crossed the species barrier to infect humans. In domestic poultry infection with avian influenza viruses causes two main forms of disease distinguished by low and high extremes of virulence. The so-called ""low pathogenic"" form commonly causes only mild symptoms ruffled feathers a drop in egg production and may easily go undetected. The highly pathogenic form is far more dramatic. It spreads very rapidly through poultry flocks causes disease affecting multiple internal organs and has a mortality that can approach 100% often within 48 hours. A pandemic can start when three conditions have been a new influenza virus subtype emerges; it infects humans causing serious illness; and it spreads easily and sustainably among humans. The H5N1 virus amply meets the first two it is a new virus for humans H5N1 viruses have never circulated widely among people and it has infected more than 100 humans killing over half of them. No one will have immunity should an H5N1-like pandemic virus emerge. All prerequisites for the start of a pandemic have therefore been met save the establishment of efficient and sustained human-to-human transmission of the virus. The risk that the H5N1 virus will acquire this ability will persist as long as opportunities for human infections occur. These opportunities in turn will persist as long as the virus continues to circulate in birds and this situation could endure for some years to come.</p> Nova Science Pub Inc hardcover
