Sommario/riassunto

This edited book demonstrates how love both unites and separates academic thinking across the arts and humanities, and beyond: from popular romance studies to border criminology, from sexology to peace studies, and into the fields of health, medicine, and engineering. This book is both a reflection and a call for a greater understanding of the complexity and importance of love in our lives, and in our world. Dr Madalena Grobbelaar is an academic, a clinical psychologist and clinical psychosexual therapist in private practice. She is a lecturer in the Counselling and Psychotherapy programmes at Edith Cowan University and has taught into the Master of Sexology at Curtin University, Australia. Dr Elizabeth Reid Boyd is an academic in the School of Arts and Humanities at Edith Cowan University, Australia. She writes fiction as Eliza Redgold, based upon the Gaelic meaning of her name. Naked: A Novel of Lady Godiva was published by St Martin’s Press, New York and is currently in script development as feature film GODIVA. Dr Debra Dudek is an Associate Professor in the English Program at Edith Cowan University, Australia.

Sommario/riassunto

During the early decades of the twentieth century, agricultural practice in America was transformed from a pre-industrial to an industrial



activity. In this book Deborah Fitzgerald argues that farms became modernized in the 1920's because they adopted not only new machinery but also the financial, cultural, and ideological apparatus of industrialism. Fitzgerald examines how bankers and emerging professionals in engineering and economics pushed for systematic, businesslike farming. She discusses how factory practices served as a template for the creation across the country of industrial or corporate farms. She looks at how farming was affected by this revolution and concludes by following several agricultural enthusiasts to the Soviet Union, where the lessons of industrial farming were studied.
