![]() ![]() ![]() The Wife Upstairs puts a modern twist on the Gothic thriller, and the setting (Alabama), sets the tone for the story. ![]() Sure, sometimes the husband is the prime suspect, but in a wealthy neighborhood full of gossip, is anyone really safe? Eddie, recently widowed, is taking care of his late wife’s multi-million dollar business, and not everyone in the community thinks he’s totally innocent. After almost being hit by a car, she falls for the driver, Eddie, and quickly finds herself in a serious relationship. The story follows Jane, a dog-walker working in an affluent neighborhood, as she’s trying to reinvent herself and leave her past behind. And friends, that’s exactly how I felt with this one □ I don’t want to think about who might have done what, or for the twist to be super obvious I just want to power read and be satisfied at the end of it. I like my thrillers to be fast, thoughtless page-turners that keep me entertained, but are quick to get through. The last few thrillers I’ve read have been □□ so I’ll admit I was a little hesitant to start The Wife Upstairs by Rachel Hawkins. ![]()

These operations can only be done if the clinical information from the narratives is properly extracted and structured.

Using a large body of racial-type images and a variety of historical and archival sources, and concentrating mainly on developments in Britain, the USA and Nazi Germany, the author argues that photography, as the most powerful visual medium of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, was vital to the Eugenics Movement's success - not only did it allow eugenicists to identify the people with superior and inferior hereditary traits, but it helped publicize and lend scientific authority to eugenicists' racial theories.The author further argues for a strong connection between the racial-type photographs that eugenicists created and the photographic images produced by nineteenth-century anthropologists and prison authorities, and that the photographic works of contemporary liberal anthropologists played a significant role in the Eugenics Movement's downfall.Besides adding to our knowledge of photography's crucial role in helping to authorize and implement some of the most controversial social policies of modern times, this book makes a major contribution to our understanding of the history of racism. Type: Book This book documents and critically analyzes the photographs that helped strengthen as well as bring down the Eugenics Movement. ![]() We're sorry this specific copy is no longer available. ![]() |
