Killing us softly 4 : advertising's image of women
"In this new, highly anticipated update of her pioneering Killing us softly series, the first in more than a decade, Jean Kilbourne takes a fresh look at how advertising traffics in distorted and destructive ideals of femininity. The film marshals a range of new print and television advertisements to lay bare a stunning pattern of damaging gender stereotypes--images and messages that too often reinforce unrealistic, and unhealthy, perceptions of beauty, perfection, and sexuality. By bringing Kilbourne's groundbreaking analysis up to date, Killing us softly 4 stands to challenge a new generation of students to take advertising seriously, and to think critically about popular culture and its relationship to sexism, eating disorders, and gender violence"--Container.

Digital Nation
Within a single generation, digital media and the World Wide Web have transformed virtually every aspect of modern culture, from the way we learn and work to the ways in which we socialize and even conduct war. But is the technology moving faster than we can adapt to it? And is our 24/7 wired world causing us to lose as much as we've gained? This in-depth exploration of what it means to be human in a 21st-century digital world continues a line of investigation that began in 2008, with the FRONTLINE report "Growing Up Online." The journalists attempt to understand the implications of living in a world consumed by technology and the impact that this constant connectivity may have on future generations. Originally broadcast on PBS as segments of Frontline on Feb. 2, 2010.

HV6431 .T37 2010 dvd
Targeting Terror
"The war on terror requires greater cooperation among countries and a deeper understanding of terrorism's causes and manifestations. This program spotlights five nations caught in the crosshairs to examine regional history, terror-related issues, and counterterrorism actions: the U.S., post-9/11, where captured international terrorists have been handled by military rather than civilian courts; the U.K., where fighting the IRA has ultimately conferred little advantage to the country in its battle against the Islamic extremists in its midst; Germany and Japan, whose counterterrorism efforts are constitutionally constrained by their history as aggressors in World War II; and Columbia, a land of narcoterrorism where extradition to America has been the government's key anti-terror weapon ." -- Container.

QH450 .G46 2008 dvd
Ghost in your Genes
While the discovery of DNA appeared to supplant much, or possibly all, of the nature vs. nurture question, this documentary highlights how life choices , stress, nutrition, may in fact impact or even change DNA processes. The filmmakers explore newer evidence that suggests DNA replication may not be as automatic as had been thought, and is shaped and affected by a second "epigenetic" chemical code that reacts with environmental changes, activating or deactivating various genes, all with potentially dramatic and even permanent results. As such, the nature vs. nurture question gains new prominence and new import, with the implication that people's choices with their own lives and the lives of their children have far-reaching consequences.

QH460 M872 2009 dvd
Mutations : Changing the Code
"A mutagen is an agent (physical, chemical or biological) capable of altering the structure of DNA within our cells. Mutagens generally act either directly on the DNA themselves or produce chemicals that in turn act on the DNA causing substitutions, deletions, insertions, or rearrangement of important genetic code. In this program we take a look inside the human body to discover how the DNA in our cells can be affected by chemicals, radiation, and other things we encounter in our everyday lives. We also discuss how mutagens can result in the development of cancers in the human body." -- Container.

QP571 .M47 1984 dvd

But where do these nutrients come from? And in what foods are they found? This program explores the nutritional dangers of not eating a balanced and nutritional diet.

Poisoned Waters
"More than three decades after the Clean Water Act, two iconic waterways -- the great coastal estuaries of Puget Sound and the Chesapeake Bay -- are in perilous condition. With polluted runoff still flowing in from industry, agriculture and massive suburban development, scientists fear contamination to the food chain and drinking water for millions of people. A growing list of endangered species also is threatened in both estuaries. [This film] examines the rising hazards to human health and the ecosystem and why it's so hard to keep our waters clean." -- Container. Originally aired Apr. 21, 2009 as an episode of the PBS television series Frontline.

Body Panic: Gender, Health, and the Selling of Fitness
by Shari L. Dworkin and Faye Linda Wachs
Call Number: New Book Shelf
BF697.5.B63 D86 2009

Are you ripped? Do you need to work on your abs? Do you know your ideal body weight? Your body fat index? Increasingly, Americans are being sold on a fitness ideal, not just thin but toned, not just muscular but cut, that is harder and harder to reach. In Body Panic, authors Shari L. Dworkin and Faye Linda Wachs ask why. How did these particular body types come to be fit? And how is it that having an unfit body gets melded with being a bad citizen?

While women and body image are often studied together, Body Panic considers both women's and men's bodies side-by-side and over time in order to offer a more in-depth understanding of this pervasive cultural trend.

Check out Body Panic: Gender, Health, and the Selling of Fitness today, available on the library's New Book Shelf.
