This books restores the concept of action to the central stage of psychological agenda, dealing with difficult conceptual issues with a light touch and not without a sense of humour. Theories of action are explored through consideration of a range of fascinating topics including time management, planning, counselling, and human error. Other topics posing particular problems for agentic theory are also given an imaginative treatment. The author concludes on an optimistic note by setting out a heuristic framework for research, advocating an eclectic fusion of methods old and new.

The heart of Smith's well-researched, meticulously assembled discography is the detailed chronology of every Cash recording date through April 1984. Information given includes session date, location, musicians, producer, songs recorded (including takes), songwriter and release history. Scholarly notes aid the user in tracing retitled or redone versions of the same song. There are separate indexes for U.S., European, and bootleg releases; a song title index; and a listing of the songs Cash performed on his ABC television series. Superbly done; for appropriate research collections. Library Journal

A continuation of the 40-year recording career of one of the most popular country music performers of our time, this second volume (the first published by Greenwood in 1985) follows Johnny Cash's recording activity from 1984 through 1993. New to this volume are the Billboard Chart Listings, which follow the popularity of any one Cash release, and the combined Sessions Index for 1954 through 1993. An Appendix details several pre-1984 sessions not contained in the first volume. The index serves as a quick cross-reference of song titles, musicians, composers, producers, and studio locations.
This volume is designed so that each section will complement and act as a cross-reference to the others. For example, the Sessions section will give session date, location, list of musicians, producers, composers, song titles, and first release information, as it pertains to singles, albums, and CDs. Then follows a Releases section, which gives a wider view as to the number of releases and contents. This listing will include domestic as well as foreign issues. The Billboard Chart Listings chapter is a tool for following the popularity of a single and/or album (CD) on both the Pop and Country charts week by week. Appendix B is an alphabetical listing of all singles and albums (CD) that have appeared on the Billboard charts from 1954 through 1993, making it easy to locate a certain entry in the listings section. The Sessions Index includes sessions from the 1985 volume as well as those pre-1984 sessions from Appendix A. The two volumes serve as a 40-year history for music historians, students of country music, and fans of Johnny Cash.

This catalog is divided into four major sections: singles, extended-play albums, long-play albums, and compact discs. An appendix lists the liner notes Cash has written for his own releases, as well as those of a number of prominent performers over the years. It also lists music videos Cash has appeared in. An accompanying index is a composite of the four sections and the appendix, listing albums and compact disc titles as well as the song titles included in those releases.
Johnny Cash's popularity seems to have reached new heights during 1994, making this Catalog, along with the two earlier discographies, invaluable to fans, who will appreciate the comprehensive coverage. That coverage includes over 1,000 song titles on 228 different record labels, 431 singles, 108 extended-play albums, 1,408 long-play albums, and 254 compact discs from the United States, Canada, and 26 foreign countries.

A prime source of one of country music's greatest, this closely-documented history follows the musical career of Waylon Jennings―from his early days as a member of Buddy Holly's group, The Crickets, through his sometimes combative relationship with the Nashville musical establishment and his emergence as a viable force in the country music scene, to his current status as a superstar. Popular music scholars and students as well as country music fans will find this a valuable source of information, not only on Jennings, but on the country music industry. In his foreword to this volume, Johnny Cash describes his friend as an American original.

In addition to his relationship with the Holly organization (he gave up his seat on the plane that would crash shortly after take-off from Mason City, Iowa, in February 1959 killing Holly, Ritchie Valens, and J. P. Richardson, The Big Bopper), the Sessions section shows Waylon's association with Willie Nelson, his partnership with Nelson, Cash, and Kris Kristofferson in forming the Highwaymen group, and his success in the rejuvenated country music world. Uncompromised, he continues to produce his own brand of Waylon Music. The Discography numbers 360 pages, including extensive Releases and Billboard Chart sections, making this a comprehensive reference work. Johnny Cash and Johnny Western both contributed forewords for their great friend and colleague.

This serious, scholarly, yet lively, text, restores the concept of action to the central stage of the psychological agenda in an exploration of the growing tensions and conflicts between action and behaviour. Theories of action are explored through careful consideration of a range of well-established and contemporary issues within psychology, with agentic improvement explored in terms of time management and counselling, and agentic malfunction through human error research. A detailed and imaginative treatment is offered to the problems posed for agentic theory by the realities of masochism, obedience to authority, hypnosis and suicide. The author takes every opportunity to relate classic studies and approaches, carried out within the discipline of psychology over the past century, to contemporary theoretical and methodological issues. He concludes on an optimistic note by setting out a heuristic framework for research, advocating an eclectic fusion of methods old and new.

The Psychology of Food and Eating: A Fresh Approach to Theory and Method

There has long been an interest in food among psychologists across the full range of the discipline, from the physiology of hunger and the psychophysics of taste and smell to the development of food preferences and the social psychology of food-related behaviour and attitudes. In this new text, John L. Smith takes a much-needed broad view of the field, bringing together physiological research, psychodynamic theory, and sociological perspectives in a way that both celebrates their differences and explores their potential fusion. The Psychology of Food and Eating provides more than a 'dry' decontextualised physiological explanation of food and eating. It moves on to enable students to see food in its wider context in terms of everyday life and real routines. It provides an overview of social scientific approaches to the study of food (biosocial, socioanthropological, structural, feminist/psychodynamic) and an appreciation of the various ways that social psychological perspectives can be applied to real-life contexts. With its detailed (and almost confessional) account of the research process, students will gain an insider's perspective on how observational and idiographic techniques are deployed in practice in everyday settings. The book will prove of interest not only to students and researchers on health psychology, applied psychology and critical psychology courses, but also to all those looking for a really accessible introduction to contemporary alternatives to the more conventional research techniques used in this field.
