Media and Water : Communication, Culture and Perception
As flooding, drought and water scarcity become more pronounced due to climate change, so the way in which these events are presented in the media assumes greater significance.In particular, the media plays an important role in shaping the public perception and understanding of water issues, and debates around extreme weather events more generally. Joanne Garde-Hansen’s book offers a sustained and comprehensive exploration of media representations of water.Drawing on a wide range of media – including newspapers, digital, photography, radio, television and video, as well as empirical research on media and memory – she examines how drought, flooding and water management have been portrayed in the media, both historically and in the contemporary world.The use of the media by water institutions to manage public perceptions and the use of digital media by the public to engage with water companies is also included. A particular feature of the book is an examination of water and gender in developed nations.One of the first books to look at media representations of water, this pioneering work provides valuable insights for both scholarly and professional water research.

Perception
Perception is one of the most pervasive and puzzling problems in philosophy, generating a great deal of attention and controversy in philosophy of mind, psychology and metaphysics.If perceptual illusion and hallucination are possible, how can perception be what it intuitively seems to be, a direct and immediate access to reality?How can perception be both internally dependent and externally directed?Perception is an outstanding introduction to this fundamental topic, covering both the perennial and recent work on the problem.Adam Pautz examines four of the most important theories of perception: the sense datum view; the internal physical state view; the representational view; and naïve realism, assessing each in turn.He also discusses the relationship between perception and the physical world and the issue of whether reality is as it appears. Useful examples are included throughout the book to illustrate the puzzles of perception, including hallucinations, illusions, the laws of appearance, blindsight, and neuroscientific explanations of our experience of pain, smell and color.The book covers both traditional philosophical arguments and more recent empirical arguments deriving from research in psychophysics and neuroscience.The addition of chapter summaries, suggestions for further reading and a glossary of terms make Perception essential reading for anyone studying the topic in detail, as well as for students of philosophy of mind, philosophy of psychology and metaphysics.

Face Perception
Human faces are unique biological structures that convey a complex variety of important social messages.Even strangers can tell things from our faces – our feelings, our locus of attention, something of what we are saying, our age, sex, and ethnic group, whether they find us attractive or approachable. Face Perception, second edition, has been thoroughly updated throughout, providing an up-to-date, integrative summary by two authors who have helped to develop and shape the field.The book begins with the foundations of face perception before considering what is known about how we see different things in faces.It concludes with a discussion of how face perception relates to wider questions involving interpersonal perception and re-examines the question of what makes faces ‘special’.The importance of integrating different research perspectives and asking critical theoretical questions is emphasised throughout, to develop a distinctive point of view of the area.Written in a clear and accessible style, this is invaluable reading for all students and researchers interested in studying face perception and social cognition.

Human Perception
It takes little or no effort for us to gather information by means of our senses but it would be a mistake to take this as a sign that perception is simple.It was in the 20th century and after the establishment of psychology as a scientific discipline that the study of perception flourished.This important volume gathers together a selection of articles and essays which represent some of the most interesting discoveries and theories.It gives a flavour of the many different approaches and ideas taken by cognitive psychologists in this fascinating area.Topics covered include: attention, brain systems, object interpolation and completion, object recognition and classification, different types of objects, and information processing and models.

First Perception
Crack open a can of lager and put on your dancing shoes, because PIGEON TOE's debut album "The First Perception" is a riotous journey through the weird and wonderful world of indie-pop. This band from the north of England has crafted an album that is as deliciously unpredictable as a Friday night out in Sheffield. From the opening track "Marmalade Moon" with its infectious guitar riffs and cheeky lyrics, to the synth-laden bangers like "Neon Nights" and "Disco Ballad", PIGEON TOE never fails to deliver the goods. Singer Jenny Smith's vocals are like a shot of whiskey - smooth, smoky, and guaranteed to give you a buzz. But what really sets this album apart is its willingness to embrace the absurd. Tracks like "Sausage Roll Serenade" and "Dancing with Dodos" are so bonkers, they shouldn't work - but somehow they do. It's like being at a party where everyone is just a little bit too drunk, but having the time of your life anyway. "The First Perception" is a breath of fresh air in a music scene that can sometimes take itself too seriously. PIGEON TOE remind us that music should be fun, experimental, and a little bit mad. So grab your feather boa and get ready to strut your stuff - this album is going to be on repeat all summer long.
