Fatal Gambit: A Novel (Rekke, Book 2) by David Lagercrantz, translated by Ian Giles
English | September 10, 2024 | ISBN: 0593319230 | True EPUB | 352 pages | 1.3 MB
David Lagercrantz's detective duo, Rekke and Vargas, returns in a new installment of the internationally best-selling series that began with Dark Music ("A classic mystery . . . One Holmes himself would have loved to solve" -The Independent).

Dead women should not show up in photos fourteen years beyond the grave . . . But if anyone is likely to recognize Claire Lidman, it's her husband, Samuel. He brings the photo to Hans Rekke and Micaela Vargas. Their initial skepticism gives way to cautious belief-but where will this case lead them?
Meanwhile, Rekke's daughter, Julia, has a new boyfriend she's determined to keep secret. When word gets out, Micaela's world collapses around her, and Rekke is forced to confront a nemesis from his youth.
Plunging us back into the political upheaval and financial crisis of the 1990s, as the Iron Curtain is finally lifted, the second Rekke and Vargas investigation sees our heroes grapple with a fiendish case that affects them both in profoundly personal ways.

Steven Noll, "Feeble-Minded in Our Midst: Institutions for the Mentally Retarded in the South, 1900-1940"
English | 2009 | ISBN: 0807845310 | EPUB | pages: 272 | 3.7 mb
The problem of how to treat the mentally handicapped attracted much attention from American reformers in the first half of the twentieth century. In this book, Steven Noll traces the history and development of institutions for the 'feeble-minded' in the South between 1900 and 1940. He examines the influences of gender, race, and class in the institutionalization process and relates policies in the South to those in the North and Midwest, regions that had established similar institutions much earlier. At the center of the story is the debate between the humanitarians, who advocated institutionalization as a way of protecting and ministering to the mentally deficient, and public policy adherents, who were primarily interested in controlling and isolating perceived deviants. According to Noll, these conflicting ideologies meant that most southern institutions were founded without a clear mission or an understanding of their relationship to southern society at large. Noll creates a vivid portrait of life and work within institutions throughout the South and the impact of institutionalization on patients and their families. He also examines the composition of the population labeled feeble-minded and demonstrates a relationship between demographic variables and institutional placement, including their effect on the determination of a patient's degree of disability.

Fertility Control By JoAnne S. Richards, Stephanie A. Pangas (auth.), Ursula-F. Habenicht, R. John Aitken (eds.)
2010 | 263 Pages | ISBN: 3642020615 | PDF | 3 MB
The world's population is growing at an unsustainable rate. From a baseline ?gure of one billion in 1800, global population is predicted to exceed nine billion by 2050 and 87. 8% of this growth will be localized in less developed countries. Such uneven population growth will yield a harvest of poverty, malnutrition, disease and en- ronmental degradation that will affect us all. Amongst the complex mixture of political, social, cultural and technological changes needed to address this issue, the development of improved methods of fertility regulation will be critical. The inadequacy of current contraceptive technologies is indicated by recent data s- gesting that the contraceptive needs of over 120 million couples go unmet every year. As a direct consequence of this de?cit 38% of pregnancies are unplanned and more than 50% end in an abortion, generating a total of 46 million abortions per annum particularly among teenagers. If safe, effective contraceptives were ava- able to every couple experiencing an unmet family planning need, 1. 5 million lives would be saved each year (UNFPA 2003). Progress in contraceptive technology should not only generate more effective methods of regulating fertility, but should also provide a range of methods to meet the changing needs of the world's population. Contraceptive practice was revo- tionized in 1960 in the US and 1961 in Europe by the introduction of the oral contraceptive pill by Gregory Pincus, MC Chang and colleagues, based on fun- mental hormone research conducted in Germany.

Fervid Filmmaking: 66 Cult Pictures of Vision, Verve and No Self-Restraint By Mike Watt
2013 | 256 Pages | ISBN: 0786470666 | EPUB | 5 MB
For fervid or feverish film professionals and buffs, there is a term--"Kitchen Sink movies"--referring to films that take severe-angle turns at unexpected moments, where a filmmaker will borrow from across the artistic spectrum to create a wild, disorienting ride. They are what this book is about. Throwing marketing reports and box-office projections to the wind, the writer-director-producers conjure a whirl of ideas, of images, of themes or Descriptions, that inexplicably come together despite conventional reason. Almost always cult films, these movies rarely succeed in their first run. Indeed, some of the very best remain unknown to mainstream audiences. This volume provides in-depth examinations of 66 of these cultural oddities, from such disparate films as La Morte en direct, The Final Programme, and Head to lesser known independents like The Prodigy, Land of College Prophets, and Scrapbook. Putting these unusual films into a cultural context promotes an under appreciated but fascinating facet of movie-making.

Michelle Duffy, "Festival Encounters: Theoretical Perspectives on Festival Events "
English | ISBN: 1138186023 | 2017 | 166 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Festivals and events are of enormous significance to many communities around the world. They can have historic, religious, cultural and traditional significance, and they are also important parts of community building.

This book focuses on these small-scale, non-metropolitan events (i.e. rural, regional and peri-urban) to explore the complex relationships between place, community and identity and the ways in which festival events bring these into being. By drawing on the notion of 'encounter', this book examines how festivals and events can be seen primarily as spaces where different people meet. This notion of encounter helps us to understand how conviviality and social relations are developed, and what this then means in terms of social cohesion and social justice. It also draws on current theoretical and methodological approaches that can tell us about the role of festivals in contemporary life, and it includes the sensual approach, the geographies of affect and emotion, the notion of the right to the city and nonrepresentation theory.

Fighting Back against Scams by Emilia Heber
English | March 1, 2024 | ISBN: 8891135445 | 227 pages | PDF | 21 Mb
In 2022, the top scam types reported to the Committee shared many similarities to those reported by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC): imposter scams and prizes, sweepstakes, and lottery scams are both cited as some of the top reported categories. Though many of the same types of scams present themselves year after year, the methods through which scammers contact victims have diversified-Artificial Intelligence (AI) and social media now play a prominent role. Scammers are also using new payment methods, making losses difficult to trace. Gift cards are the main payment method used by scammers to request and steal money from older adults. In 2021, 27 percent of adults 60 and older who lost money paid a scammer using a gift card or a reloadable card. Peer-to-peer payment apps, like Zelle, Venmo, CashApp, and PayPal, are also increasingly used by scammers.

Walter Reid, "Fighting Retreat: Churchill and India"
English | ISBN: 1805260502 | 2024 | 344 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Winston Churchill was closely connected with India from 1896, when he landed in Bombay with his regiment, until 1947, when independence was finally achieved. No other British statesman had such a long association with the sub-continent-or interfered in its politics so consistently and harmfully.

Churchill strove to sabotage any moves towards independence, crippling the Government of India Act over five years of dogged opposition to its passage in the 1930s. As Prime Minister during the Second World War, Churchill frustrated the freedom struggle from behind the scenes, delaying independence by a decade. To this day he is 'the' imperialist villain for Indians, held personally responsible for the Bengal Famine.
This book reveals Churchill at his worst: cruel, obstructive and selfish. The same man was outstandingly liberal at the Colonial Office, risking his career with his generosity to the Boers and the Irish, and later speeding up independence in the Middle East. Why was he so strangely hostile towards India?

E. Alexander Powell, "Fighting in Flanders"
English | 2016 | ISBN: 1535395931 | EPUB | pages: 112 | 3.2 mb
Fighting in Flanders is a classic World War One memoir by E. Alexander Powell. Nothing is more unwise, on general principles, than to attempt to write about a war before that war is finished and before history has given it the justice of perspective. The campaign which began with the flight of the Belgian Government from Brussels and which culminated in the fall of Antwerp formed, however, a separate and distinct phase of the Greatest of Wars, and I feel that I should write of that campaign while its events are still sharp and clear in my memory and before the impressions it produced have begun to fade. I hope that those in search of a detailed or technical account of the campaign in Flanders will not read this book, because they are certain to be disappointed. It contains nothing about strategy or tactics and few military lessons can be drawn from it. It is merely the WW1 story, in simple words, of what I, a professional onlooker, who was accorded rather exceptional facilities for observation, saw in Belgium during that nation's hour of trial.

Federico Della Negra, "Financial Services Contracts in EU Law"
English | ISBN: 0192866605 | 2024 | 384 pages | PDF | 3 MB
In the wake of the 2008 Global Financial Crisis, misconduct and unfair contract terms in financial services contracts triggered a wave of litigation before national courts. Litigation did not remain a national law issue but soon became an EU law issue. National courts sought, through the preliminary reference procedure, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU)'s guidance to interpret EU financial services legislation and determine the scope of consumers' rights and private law remedies vis-à-vis financial service providers (FSPs).

The high number of CJEU's rulings have significantly innovated numerous EU and national private law rules on financial services contracts. The CJEU has often expanded consumers' private law remedies, based on general principles of EU law, beyond the letter of the law, thus 'creating' new private law principles for these contracts.
This book provides the first comprehensive and systematic analysis of the rapidly evolving and complex CJEU case law on retail credit, payment, and investment services contracts. It extensively discusses the rationales of the CJEU's judgments and gives guidance on the role of general principles of EU law in the CJEU's reasoning. This volume identifies emerging principles of private law which should apply across credit, payment, and investment services contracts. Building on this analysis, the work provides an assessment of the significant legal and policy implications of the CJEU case law on national and EU private law.

Alma J. Carten, "Find a Way or Make One: A Documentary History of Clark Atlanta University Whitney M. Young Jr. School of Social Work "
English | ISBN: 019751846X | 2020 | 468 pages | PDF | 27 MB
Clark Atlanta University Whitney M. Young Jr. School of Social Work was founded in 1920 in Atlanta, Georgia, as the Atlanta School of Social Work to prepare social workers for practice in underserved black neighborhoods. Spearheaded by black scholars and progressive whites during an era of racial segregation, 2020 marks its centennial as the first accredited social work program at a historically black college and university. In this book, social work professor Alma J. Carten describes the School's transitions from its beginnings amid the pervasive racism sanctioned by Supreme Court rulings in the Dred Scott and Plessy v. Ferguson cases, through the decades of 20th century progressive civil rights reforms, and into the new conservatism of the 21st century.

Referencing archival documents, Carten illustrates the School's commitment to the democratic principles of the profession despite the blatant racism of the segregated South and the less visible structural inequalities following desegregation from which mainstream social work education was not immune. The book describes the influence of iconic thought leaders on the School's culture and academic programs, beginning with Jesse O. Thomas's speech on the need for a black school of social work, given from the segregated section of the 1920 National Conference on Social Work; and including W.E.B. DuBois' Atlanta University Studies that pioneered the model of social progress powered by science; E. Franklin Frazier and Forrester B. Washington, who championed "black social work" and the integration of race critical content in the curriculum of all schools; and Whitney M. Young, Jr., who chastised social workers for their waning interest in advocacy for marginalized populations and encouraged them to become politically active.
Carten examines the evolution of the School within the context of changes in US social welfare policy, CSWE accrediting standards, and NASW Code of Ethics. Highly readable, the book brings to light the under-reported contributions of HBCU social work programs to social work education, and it thoughtfully engages with the School's efforts to legitimize the Afrocentric perspective and the humanistic values embraced by HBCU social work programs.

Robert H. Miller, "Finding My Father's War: Revelations from the Red Cross Diary of an American POW in Nazi Germany"
English | ISBN: 0615322395 | 2009 | 299 pages | EPUB | 3 MB
This is the remarkable story of my father, Herbert Henry Miller, who was drafted into the army in August 1942. So begins this book about an ordinary man thrust into extraordinary circumstances during World War II. The writer is Herbert Miller's son, Robert, who was amazed to discover his father's Red Cross war diary at the back of a drawer in the weeks following his 1994 death. The diary was crammed full of his dreams for survival and of the death and destruction he had witnessed as a soldier and a POW. Finding his father's journal became the catalyst for Robert Miller to learn more about his father and his father's war.
