All rights reserved. Published 1952. Second Edition 1963. First Phoenix Impression 1963. Printed in the United States of America oi.uchicago.edu PREFACE HE book contains twelve chapters, but it can be broken up structurally into five parts. First, the place of writing among the various systems of human inter­ communication is discussed. This is followed by four Tchapters devoted to the descriptive and comparative treatment of the various types of writing in the world. The sixth chapter deals with the evolution of writing from the earliest stages of picture writing to a full alphabet. The next four chapters deal with general problems, such as the future of writing and the relationship of writing to speech, art, and religion. Of the two final chapters, one contains the first attempt to establish a full terminology of writing, the other an extensive bibliography. The aim of this study is to lay a foundation for a new science of writing which might be called grammatology. While the general histories of writing treat individual writings mainly from a descriptive-historical point of view, the new science attempts to establish general principles governing the use and evolution of writing on a comparative-typological basis.

  • Episodes of Anger on Prime Time Television: a Content
    ,, .' EPISODES OF ANGER ON PRIME TIME TELEVISION: A CONTENT ANALYSIS Rhoda Baruch, Ed.D. Suzanne Stutman, M.A., M.S.W. JANUARY 17, 1986 INSTITUTE FOR MENTAL HEALTH INITIATIVES 4545 42ND STREET', N.IJ. SUITE 312 WASHIMGTON~ D.C. 20016 INSlTIUTE hr MEN'D\L HEAIlH lNlTIATlVES 454542rxiSlIeet,NW Suile312 ~OC 2OD16 (202)244-5806 INTRODUCTION " Among many risks that are associated with anger and chronic hostility are coronary heart disease, hypertension, psychopathology and violence (Pierce,1984; Speilberger and London, 1982; Barefoot et al,1983; Manuck et al, in press). Unresolved hostility can be a factor in failed marriages (Beck, 1984) and careers. Moreover, suicide and homicide are sometimes the extreme expression of anger (Pierce, 1984). Suppressed anger incurs other risks as well; it deadens responsiveness, inhibits work effectiveness and productivity, and constricts creative endeavors (Bernardez, 1984) • However, contrary to general public belief that angry exchanges are uniformly negative experiences, conflict and anger, frequent occurrences in family living and other interpersonal relationships (Patterson, 1982, Jackson, 1984), can be perceived by both the angry person and the target to be beneficial under appropriate circumstances (Averill, 1982). Anger can provide an opportunity to make a grievance known, solve problems, correct an imbalance of power in a relationship and restore pride that has been reduced. (Miller,1983; Beck 1979; Pierce,1984; Novaco,in press; Inclan. 1984; Jackson, 1984). It contains the potential energy to effect change (Sparks, 1984). The reward' - 2 for the constructive expression and interchange of anger can be an i~proved emotional connection between people, a maintained sense of integrity and a safer feeling (Miller, .' Averi 11, Tavris, 1984).

  • Grant Tinker Dies at 90
    Grant Tinker Dies at 90 11.30.2016 Grant Tinker, a revered producer and executive who founded MTM Enterprises with Mary Tyler Moore and former NBC chairman-CEO who took the network from last place to first, has died at 90. Tinker died Monday at his home in California, according to a report Wednesday on NBC's Today, Variety reports. Tinker's television career spanned almost half a century, from its inception through the 1990s. His TV projects began with The Mary Tyler Moore Show through to Lou Grant, WKRP in Cincinnati and the dramatic hit Hill Street Blues. Two of Tinker's four children, sons Mark and John Tinker, are active in the TV business as producers and directors. "My father set the bar high both as a television executive and a father. I never heard anyone speak of him with anything other than respect and admiration. I'm proud to be his son and especially proud of the legacy he leaves behind in business and as a gentleman," Mark Tinker told Variety. Tinker is an executive producer on NBC's Chicago PD. "Grant Tinker was a great man who made an indelible mark on NBC and the history of television that continues to this day," said NBCUniversal CEO Steve Burke in a statement. "He loved creative people and protected them, while still expertly managing the business. Very few people have been able to achieve such a balance. We try to live up to the standards he set each and every day. Our hearts go out to his family and friends." At NBC, Tinker was known for his famous saying: "First be best, then be first." That mantra was put to use when Tinker and his programming chief Brandon Tartikoff stayed the course with shows such as Cheers and Hill Street Blues even when they were at the bottom of the Nielsen rankings.
