  This new 2023 edition includes an audio download link.
  Scottish Gaelic in Twelve Weeks has been written both as a self-tuition course for beginners and also for use within the classroom. You may want to learn Gaelic because of a general interest in Celtic or Scottish history and culture, or because it was the everyday language of your ancestors. The cynical observer may wonder if the exercise is worthwhile, when only 1.5 per cent of Scotland's population speak the language.
  However, Gaelic is far from dead; in some parts of the Highlands and Western Isles it is the everyday language and it represents an important part of the United Kingdom's cultural mix. There are Gaelic-learning classes in almost every area of Scotland. Each lesson in the book contains some essential points of grammar explained and illustrated, exercises, a list of new vocabulary (with a guide to pronunciation, using the International Phonetics Alphabet), and an item of conversation.

  The Sociology of Consumption -...

  Consumption is more than just the act of buying goods and services; it is deeply embedded in social life, shaping identities, relationships, and cultural norms. Every purchase, whether intentional or subconscious, communicates something about an individual’s values, social status, and aspirations. From luxury fashion to everyday grocery choices, consumption reflects broader social trends and plays a crucial role in defining personal and collective identities. 
  One of the key aspects of consumption is its role in self-expression. People often use products to craft and communicate their identities, signaling their tastes, lifestyles, and even political beliefs. Clothing, for example, can represent a person’s social class, cultural background, or profession, while the brands they choose may indicate affiliations with certain social groups. The rise of sustainable fashion, vegan products, and ethical brands demonstrates how consumers align their purchases with their moral values, reinforcing the idea that buying is not just about necessity but about meaning. 
  In addition to personal identity, consumption is tied to social status and economic class. French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu argued that consumption patterns are shaped by “cultural capital,” or the knowledge, tastes, and habits associated with different social classes. Wealthy individuals may engage in conspicuous consumption, a term coined by Thorstein Veblen, where luxury goods serve as symbols of status and exclusivity. However, in modern consumer societies, status can also be displayed through experiences, such as luxury travel or exclusive events, rather than material possessions alone.
