Talk:Bob Pease

Circumstances of death
'...while driving one-handed...' is likely speculation and seems in poor taste. Editorializing the importance of stretching one's abilities to do tasks like driving without using one hand or the other is hardly a basis for claiming this was how Pease was driving when he died. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.126.80.245 (talk) 03:12, 21 June 2011 (UTC)


 * As of now, we don't know much of the particulars of Bob Pease's death. The San Jose Mercury News reported that the California Highway Patrol said he was not wearing a seatbelt.  We don't know if he was driving one-handed, or even if he habitually did so.  We don't know whether he had any medical problem that may have precipitated the crash.  There presumably  will be an autopsy, so we'll just have to wait.


 * On the other hand, the book he wrote, How to Drive into Accidents - And How Not to was/is a real book, not a joke. Bob Pease was rather proud of it, and readily autographed copies of it sent to him  for that purpose.  I know, because I once mailed 3 copies to him, which he happily inscribed and sent back to my wife and myself.  We kept one, gave one to a graduating high school student we knew, and donated the third copy to his high school library.  The book  is indeed idiosyncratic, original, and far from boring.  The review ratings on Amazon are bi-modal — readers tended to love or hate it.  It is worth reading for the new insights he brings to the subject, whether you agree with everything he says, only some things, or nothing at all.  Pease's work should not be censored, out of a misplaced sense of propriety or pity; he would still want his book to be read after his death, regardless of the circumstances surrounding it.


 * Bob Pease was a brilliant analog circuit designer, both within the integrated circuit chip, and in the application of said chips to real-world problems. He was also a master teacher and technology author.  His sudden loss is a shock to the field of circuit design. Rather than speculate prematurely on the exact circumstances of his demise, we should write about his lifetime of accomplishments.  Reify-tech (talk) 04:26, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

Whomever added the photo and caption please update the date on the half-mast flag photo. The date is listed as 21 July, which is tomorrow. Either you have a time machine, or you got the date wrong. NetJohn (talk) 18:28, 20 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Oops, misread it. It's 21 JUNE.  Apparently the flag has nothing to do with Mr. Pease. NetJohn (talk) 18:29, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

Move
Prof Pease wrote this 2000 book. Amazon's summary says of him:

Professor Bob Pease is the Chair of Social Work in the School of Health and Social Development. He has published over 80 refereed journal articles and book chapters and is author of
 * 1) Men and Sexual Politics: A Profeminist Approach (Dulwich 1997)
 * 2) Recreating Men: Postmodern Masculinity Politics (Sage 2000)
 * 3) Men and Gender Relations (Tertiary Press 2002)
 * 4) Undoing Privilege: Unearned Advantage in a Divide World (Zed 2010)

co-editor of
 * 1) Transforming Social Work Practice: Postmodern Critical Perspectives (Allen and Unwin 1997)
 * 2) Working With Men in the Human Services (Allen and Unwin 2001)
 * 3) A Man's World? Changing Men's Practices in a Globalized World (Zed 2001)
 * 4) Critical Social Work (Allen and Unwin 2003)
 * 5) International Encyclopedia of Men and Masculinities (Routhledge 2007)
 * 6) Critical Social Work: Theories and Practices for a Socially Just World (Allen and Unwin second edition 2009
 * 7) Migrant Men, Critical Studies of Masculinities and the Migration Experience (Routledge 2010)
 * 8) Men and Masculinities Around the World: Transforming Men's Practices (Palgrave 2011).

Unfortunately I don't yet have anything to go on besides Bob Pease and since this guy is a professor and involved in a dozen books I think it would be important to cover him too.

Bob Pease → Robert Allen Pease – There is more than one Bob Pease in the world so this page could be a disambiguation page while we could host this article at his proper name and not nickname. For example there is a Professor Bob Pease we could make a page for. Ranze (talk) 09:07, 28 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Oppose move. No need to disambiguate, since there are no other Bob Pease articles. Bob Pease (Robert A. Pease of National Semiconductor) still seems to be far better known than any other Bob Pease. The article is named Bob Pease according to WP:COMMONNAME, because this was the name he chose to be known by, published under, and was referred to by others. So RAP is currently the WP:Primary topic based on usage and long term significance. And, for information's sake, we tend not to spell out middle names if that form is not how an individual is known. (Side note: feel free to write the article under WP:AFC, if you so desire. Be prepared for the usual uphill battle getting WP:BLP approved, and don't be discouraged.) --Lexein (talk) 18:02, 28 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Oppose for now – Make an article on the other guy and then we can talk about the best way to disambiguate. Dicklyon (talk) 18:36, 28 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Oppose for now – WP:WTAF, and if it is notable, we can work out a reasonable re-arrangement of article titles. Reify-tech (talk) 18:54, 28 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Oppose move. No showing that current article would not be the primary topic. Primary is not demonstrated by number of articles written but rather how well known the person is. As above, WTAF using a qualified name, put an about at this article, and revisit. Glrx (talk) 03:51, 29 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Oppose. No other articles and we use common name in our article titles. I think it might be a good idea if User:Ranze reviewed our naming conventions, as he has made several similar proposals over the last few months and continues to do so despite our conventions being explained to him every time. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:57, 29 July 2013 (UTC)
 * The other Bob Pease also publishes under that name. I didn't know we had to have the other article in place to begin disambiguating, I was kinda of hoping to find out more information before building it. Ranze (talk) 09:31, 30 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, we only disambiguate when at least two articles exist. -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:35, 30 July 2013 (UTC)
 * The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
