PART 1 Your resources for this discussion include the following: 1) reading from the book, The Invention of Clouds, 2) my “Theory of Clouds,” which is attached here a theory of clouds 213.doc, and 3) the website to the Cloud Appreciation Society: https://cloudappreciationsociety.org/ (This website is interesting/useful because it gives some wonderful visual illustration of the kinds of clouds and effects that are mentioned in both the Theory of Clouds and the Invention of Clouds.)
In this course we have been aiming to unite the social sciences and the humanities. Clouds, it seems to me, afford one of the best occasions to make this happen. You’ll see what I mean when you read my Theory of Clouds.
Do this: choose some aspect of clouds, perhaps one or another of the various kinds of clouds that exist (cirrus, nimbostratus, cumulus radiatus, lenticularis, asperatus, etc) or some cloud light effect (iridescence, glory, sun pillars, etc) or some form of precipitation (rain, hail, diamond dust, etc) — or anything at all having to do with clouds, their motion, or their weather effects — and explain some element of some issue that concerns society. Your explanation is, in effect, an application and elaboration of “The Theory of Clouds.” Your good two paragraphs here should refer specifically to something in the theory and refer specifically to something that you encountered in the book that we read this week, The Invention of Clouds (cite the book as necessary using page number[s]). And besides making connections, your response here should have something to say. The power of a theory rests not merely in its ability to explain but more importantly in its ability to facilitate insight into the human condition. In our work here we want to do more than offer a model, a metaphor that seems to match what we think is important. That would be nice, but we want to offer something new, something that has gone unthought until now. We want to shed new light on the world.
PART 2 In your own words, summarize the internal and external factors that are important for recovery and write a brief reflection on how the internal and external factors interplay to support the recovery process. How can you apply this understanding in supporting others, the concept of community as described in this module, or in your personal growth?
