Quotations from the rear cover: "One of the more provocative studies of why middle America is making increasing use of ritual healing and what that choice tells us of problems with biomedical care in technological institutions. A welcome addition to anthropological studies of ritual healing in other societies, and it illuminates a huge component of our health care system that is poorly understood." -- Arthur Kleinman, M.D., Harvard University. "An all too rare volume, namely a scholarly work on the practice of healing in suburban or what we might call middle-class America. McGuire, perhaps uniquely, has set out the religious or 'ritual' healing beliefs and practices that are usually strictly segregated and kept apart. Any one who takes seriously the need to understand 'healing'. should obtain this book." -- HEALTH AND HEALING. "Develops an innovative sociological approach to the study of alternative healing practices through a methodologically sound qualitative study. The high quality of research and conceptualization and the meticulous documentation of the relevant literature make [this book] essential reading for those interested in the sociology and anthropology of religion and of medicine, and in the study of health and illness in contemporary America." -- CONTEMPORARY SOCIOLOGY. "The power of the book is in the larger cultural analysis it offers. a valuable contribution to medical sociology." -- SOCIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS. Keywords: Alternative Medicine . Fourth printing.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Dressing the Story is a rare, inside-the-room account of how films are truly made-not just written and directed, but seen. In these vivid, candid conversations, celebrated costume designer Debra McGuire, whose film and TV credits include Friends, Freaks and Geeks, The Morning Show, Anchorman…, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Knocked Up, Superbad and Walk Hard, reveals how clothing becomes character, how fabric carries emotion, and how the smallest visual detail can shape an audience's experience without them ever realizing it. Drawing on decades of work across film and television, she takes us from first script reading to final fitting, from instinct to execution, showing how costume design is not decoration but storytelling in its most immediate, visual form. At once a practical guide, a memoir of creative life, and a love letter to collaboration, this book captures the exhilaration-and the sheer labor-behind the craft. McGuire writes with warmth, wit, and hard-won authority about working with actors, navigating directors and producers, building teams, solving problems under pressure, and trusting intuition when it matters most. Whether you're a filmmaker, designer, or simply someone who loves cinema, Dressing the Story opens your eyes to an essential, often invisible art-and leaves you watching every film differently.Presented as a series of conversations with independent producer Jim Stark, and enriched by contributions from Gavin McGuire and longtime collaborator Joe Mastrolia, this book offers a uniquely intimate portrait of the collaborative spirit at the heart of costume design. Dressing the Story is an insider's look at the art of costume design, with acclaimed designer Debra McGuire revealing how clothing shapes character, emotion, and storytelling across film and television. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
