Simone Pulver, Kathryn J. Fiorella, Meghan L. Avolio, "Foundations of Socio-Environmental Research: Legacy Readings with Commentaries"
English | 2023 | ISBN: 1009177842 | PDF | pages: 775 | 244.6 mb
This anthology convenes 53 foundational readings that showcase the rich history of socio-environmental research from the late 1700s onwards. The introduction orients readers to the topic and how it has evolved and describes how to best use the book. The original readings are organised into six sections, documenting the emergence of socio-environmental research, first as a shared concern and then as a topic of specific interest to anthropology and geography; economics, sociology and political science; ecology; ethics, religious studies, and history; and technology, energy, and materials. A noted scholar introduces each section, putting the readings into historical and intellectual context. The conclusion links the legacy readings to contemporary approaches to socio-environmental research and discusses how these links can enrich the reader's understanding and work. Invaluable to students, instructors and researchers alike, this canonical reference illuminates underappreciated linkages across research domains and creates a shared basis for dialogue and collaboration.

Frans Hals or not Frans Hals: Connoisseurship, Technical Analysis and Digital Tools
English | 2025 | ISBN: 3031594886 | 288 Pages | PDF (True) | 68 MB
Frans Hals is hailed as one of the three greatest painters of the Dutch seventeenth century along with Rembrandt and Vermeer. Of all seventeenth-century Dutch painters, Frans Hals is also the most controversial in as far as the exact scope of his oeuvre is concerned. Hals's popularity, the lack of technical reference material as well as the differing views among experts as to the exact scope of his oeuvre make works in his style prone to doubts and misattributions. It has led to fierce debates and legal battles about the attribution of paintings done in his style.

Linda Stratmann, "Fraudsters and Charlatans"
English | ISBN: 0752457101 | 2010 | 260 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
In 1817 a young woman of exotic appearance was found wandering near Bristol. She spoke in a language that no one could understand except, seemingly a Portuguese sailor. He claimed that she was a Sumatran princess from the island of Javasu. Princess Caraboo, as she was known, became a national celebrity and lived in a grand style, entertaining many distinguished visitors. A few weeks later, however, she was exposed as Mary Baker, the daughter of a cobbler from Devonshire. Mary's deception is one of several intriguing stories of nineteenth-century fraudsters brought to light in Linda Stratmann's entertaining look at some of history's greatest rogues. From bankers who forged share certificates, ruining hundreds of small investors, to 'Louis de Rougemont' whose tales of high adventure branded him The Greatest Liar on Earth', these riveting tales of true crime expose the seedy side of life in which corruption, avarice and scandal hold sway.

Funktionale Analyse: Grundlagen und Anwendungen in der Körperpsychotherapie By Will Davis
2020 | 358 Pages | ISBN: 3837929701 | PDF | 9 MB
Die Funktionale Analyse ist eine körperorientierte Psychotherapie. Sie gründet in Wilhelm Reichs funktionalem Modell, dem zufolge Psyche und Soma sich nicht nur gegenseitig beeinflussen, sondern zwei Formen desselben sind. Als Grundlage für den Entwicklungs- und Heilungsprozess wird in der Funktionalen Analyse die Selbst-zu-Selbst-Beziehung in Ergänzung zur Selbst-zum-Anderen-Beziehung betrachtet. Will Davis zeigt, wie relevant Reichs Forschungsergebnisse bis heute sind, wie sie sich den aktuellen Strömungen der Psychotherapie entsprechend weiterentwickelt haben und wie fruchtbar Reichs Pionierarbeit für Davis' eigenes therapeutisches Wirken der letzten 45 Jahre ist. Der hier vorgestellte nicht-invasive, selbstorientierte Ansatz der Funktionalen Analyse ist besonders für die Arbeit mit Menschen mit frühen Störungen oder Traumata geeignet.

Genes, Germs And Medicine: The Life Of Joshua Lederberg
English | 2021 | ISBN: 9811225478 | 424 Pages | PDF (True) | 183 MB
Genes, Germs and Medicine explores the development of modern biomedical science in the United States through the life of one of the Twentieth Century's most influential scientists.Joshua Lederberg was a scientific renaissance man. He and his collaborators founded the field of bacterial genetics, and he was awarded the Nobel Prize at the age of 33 (the second youngest in history). He helped to lay the foundations for genetic engineering, made fundamental revisions to immunological and evolutionary theory, and developed medical genetics. He initiated the search for extraterrestrial microbial life, developed artificial intelligence, and was a visionary of the Digital Age. Lederberg coined some of the central terms of modern biology: plasmid, transduction, exobiology, euphenics and microbiome.A complex humanist who spoke out for social justice, Lederberg confronted racism, and denied a gene-centered view of humans. Pondering our social evolution outside of nature, he forewarned of the complex ethical issues arising from bioengineering. He sounded the alarm about coming pandemics at a time when few would listen, and warned of the peril of biowarfare and strove to prevent it. Lederberg was a man with a deep sense of social and intellectual responsibility, a trusted advisor to eight presidential administrations.

George Washington's Final Battle: The Epic Struggle to Build a Capital City and a Nation by Robert P. Watson
English | February 15, 2021 | ISBN: 1626167842 | 400 pages | PDF | 5.67 Mb
George Washington is remembered for leading the Continental Army to victory, presiding over the Constitution, and forging a new nation, but few know the story of his involvement in the establishment of a capital city and how it nearly tore the United States apart.
In George Washington's Final Battle, Robert P. Watson brings this tale to life, telling how the country's first president tirelessly advocated for a capital on the shores of the Potomac. Washington envisioned and had a direct role in planning many aspects of the city that would house the young republic. In doing so, he created a landmark that gave the fledgling democracy credibility, united a fractious country, and created a sense of American identity.
Although Washington died just months before the federal government's official relocation, his vision and influence live on in the city that bears his name.
This little-known story of founding intrigue throws George Washington's political acumen into sharp relief and provides a historical lesson in leadership and consensus-building that remains relevant today. This book will fascinate anyone interested in the founding period, the American presidency, and the history of Washington, DC.

The Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine in 1960 was awarded to two renowned scientists in Australia and Britain, Frank Macfarlane Burnet and Peter Brian Medawar. Many historical accounts have described Burnet's theoretical prediction of immunological 'tolerance' and its experimental confirmation by Medawar as a momentous achievement in immunology. This book examines their distinct research pathways, especially their different ways of approaching the immunological changes of the host organism during embryogenesis and foetal development.

Getanzte Politik: Franz Anton Hilverding und die Inszenierung des kaiserlichen Hofes im Wiener Ballett von 1750 bis 1765 By Karin Fenböck
2019 | 320 Pages | ISBN: 373290573X | PDF | 6 MB
Mit den Neuerungsbestrebungen im Bühnentanz des 18. Jahrhunderts werden primär die Namen Jean Georges Noverre und Gasparo Angiolini verbunden. Dabei hat der aus einer Theaterdynastie stammende Wiener Ballettmeister Franz Anton Hilverding (1710-1768) schon um die Mitte des 18. Jahrhunderts erste choreographische Gestaltungsversuche jenseits der barocken Formschemata gewagt. Möglich wurde das durch sein einzigartiges Arbeitsumfeld am Theater nächst der Burg bzw. am Kärntnertortheater, die vom beinahe allmächtigen Staatskanzler Wenzel Anton Kaunitz-Rietberg unterstützt und vom Wiener Hof finanziert wurden. Vor dem Hintergrund zeitgenössischer Diskurse zur Tanz- und Theatertheorie und der österreichischen Innen- und Außenpolitik jener Jahre beleuchtet Karin Fenböck erstmals Hilverdings innovative und praxisnahe Auseinandersetzung mit den Aufführungskonventionen des Bühnentanzes.

Global Ecology and Unequal Exchange: Fetishism in a Zero-Sum World (Routledge Studies in Ecological Economics) By Alf Hornborg
2011 | 208 Pages | ISBN: 0415614864 | EPUB | 1 MB
In modern society, we tend to have faith in technology. But is our concept of 'technology' itself a cultural illusion? This book challenges the idea that humanity as a whole is united in a common development toward increasingly efficient technologies. Instead it argues that modern technology implies a kind of global 'zero-sum game' involving uneven resource flows, which make it possible for wealthier parts of global society to save time and space at the expense of humans and environments in the poorer parts. We tend to think of the functioning of machines as if it were detached from the social relations of exchange which make machines economically and physically possible (in some areas). But even the steam engine that was the core of the Industrial Revolution in England was indissolubly linked to slave labour and soil erosion in distant cotton plantations. And even as seemingly benign a technology as railways have historically saved time (and accessed space) primarily for those who can afford them, but at the expense of labour time and natural space lost for other social groups with less purchasing power. The existence of technology, in other words, is not a cornucopia signifying general human progress, but the unevenly distributed result of unequal resource transfers that the science of economics is not equipped to perceive. Technology is not simply a relation between humans and their natural environment, but more fundamentally a way of organizing global human society. From the very start it has been a global phenomenon, which has intertwined political, economic and environmental histories in complex and inequitable ways. This book unravels these complex connections and rejects the widespread notion that technology will make the world sustainable. Instead it suggests a radical reform of money, which would be as useful for achieving sustainability as for avoiding financial breakdown.It brings together various perspectives from environmental and economic anthropology, ecological economics, political ecology, world-system analysis, fetishism theory, semiotics, environmental and economic history, and development theory. Its main contribution is a new understanding of technological development and concerns about global sustainability as questions of power and uneven distribution, ultimately deriving from the inherent logic of general-purpose money. It should be of interest to students and professionals with a background or current engagement in anthropology, sustainability studies, environmental history, economic history, or development studies.

Hamburger Hill 1969
by Dr James H. Willbanks
English | December 19, 2024 | ISBN: 1472861558 | 96 Pages | epub | 26,33 MB
A highly illustrated, authoritative exploration of Operation Apache Snow, including the infamous Battle of Hamburger Hill (Ap Bia Mountain), one of the most significant and well-known actions in the Vietnam War.
Operation Apache Snow was the result of a renewed Allied effort in early 1969 to neutralize the North Vietnamese forces in the A Shau, a 45km-long valley located in the southwestern Thua Thien Province. This area had long provided an infiltration corridor for Communist forces from the Ho Chi Minh Trail in Laos to the coastal cities of northern I Corps Tactical Zone.
The ensuing battle to take Ap Bia Mountain, which became known as Hamburger Hill, lasted for ten days. Although US and South Vietnamese forces were ultimately successful in taking the hill, the heavy casualties incurred in the bitter fighting caused a furor in Congress, with many congressmen denouncing the action.
In this work, respected Vietnam War historian James H. Willbanks documents the planning and execution of Operation Apache Snow. The progress of the operation is carefully presented using maps and diagrams, and the forces and weaponry of both sides are brought to life in photos and color battlescenes. Willbanks also explores why, despite the Allied success in taking Hamburger Hill, the battle came to symbolize the frustration of winning costly encounters without ever consummating a strategic victory.
