The Struggle for Taiwan by Sulmaan Wasif Khan
English | May 14, 2024 | ISBN: 0241674859 | 336 pages | PDF | 6.89 Mb
A gripping account of the past and future of Taiwan

'Deeply researched and fascinating' - The Guardian
In the overwhelming chaos across Asia at the end of the Second World War, one relatively minor issue was the future of the Japanese colony of Taiwan, a large island some one hundred miles off the coast of Fujian. Handed to the Kuomintang-ruled Republic of China, in 1949 it suddenly became the focus of global attention as a random cross-section of defeated Nationalists, including President Chiang Kai-shek, fled there from Mao's triumphant Communist forces.
The Struggle for Taiwan is a balanced and convincing account of the sequence of events that has left Taiwan for generations as a political anomaly, with issues around its status and future continuing to threaten war. With deepening democratization, Taiwan further goads Beijing, remaining functionally independent from China even as Xi Jinping clamours for unification.
This invaluable book allows readers to understand the complex story of this unique place and its role in international relations. With its striking economic dynamism and commitment to democracy, can Taiwan continue - as Hong Kong once did - to thrive, or will China conquer it? And will the world be able to maintain peace across the Taiwan Strait or will it stumble into war?

The Ten Big Anti-Israel Lies: And How to Refute Them with Truth
by Alan Dershowitz
English | 2024 | ISBN: 1510783547 | 80 Pages | True ePUB | 1.17 MB

The goal of The Ten Big Anti-Israel Lies: And How to Refute Them with Truth is to contribute to the marketplace if ideas by offering truthful and well-documented facts that disprove the defamatory fictions-the big lies-that are pervasive in the current protests against Israel. The book's intended audiences are open-minded students and others who seek to hear fact-based information on all sides of the relevant issues. It is also designed to provide intellectual ammunition to pro-Israel students who seek to engage in exchanges with their anti-Israel interlocutors.
It is hoped that this book, will help promote fact-based debate and dialogue about Israel and its enemies. As a lifelong Zionist and supporter-though often a critical supporter-of Israel, I am convinced that the unvarnished truth about all sides of the conflict will, if fairly assessed, refute the blood libels currently directed at the nation-state of the Jewish people.
This book will demonstrate that the vast majority of accusations leveled by the anti-Israel protestors and professors are false. I will describe their ten central accusations about the past, the present, and the future, and then refute them with indisputable documentary, historical, and empirical evidence.

The Trials of Laura Fair: Sex, Murder, and Insanity in the Victorian West by Carole Haber
English | August 1, 2013 | ISBN: 1469607581, 1469626462 | True EPUB | 328 pages | 8.4 MB
On November 3, 1870, on a San Francisco ferry, Laura Fair shot a bullet into the heart of her married lover, A. P. Crittenden. Throughout her two murder trials, Fair's lawyers, supported by expert testimony from physicians, claimed that the shooting was the result of temporary insanity caused by a severely painful menstrual cycle. The first jury disregarded such testimony, choosing instead to focus on Fair's disreputable character. In the second trial, however, an effective defense built on contemporary medical beliefs and gendered stereotypes led to a verdict that shocked Americans across the country. In this rousing history, Carole Haber probes changing ideas about morality and immorality, masculinity and femininity, love and marriage, health and disease, and mental illness to show that all these concepts were reinvented in the Victorian West.

Haber's book examines the era's most controversial issues, including suffrage, the gendered courts, women's physiology, and free love. This notorious story enriches our understanding of Victorian society, opening the door to a discussion about the ways in which reputation, especially female reputation, is shaped.

Tracy Ryan, "The Ultimate Book of CBD Remedies: Leading Experts Explain What Works, What Doesn't, and How CBD is Changing the World"
English | 2020 | pages: 288 | ISBN: 1510757449 | EPUB | 66,0 mb
Hemp has a rich history throughout many cultures and regions as an effective, natural cure to a variety of ailments that affect mammals and, more specifically, human beings. Clinical research conducted with hemp cannabinoids officially began in the 1940s in the United States, when CBD was first isolated from the molecular structure, despite ongoing international research proving the efficacy well before that time. Scientists and doctors from around the globe are heavily invested in the study of cannabinoids like CBD and their interaction with the human endocannabinoid system.

InThe Ultimate Book of CBD Remedies, Ryan Lewis has interviewed highly regarded pioneers, developers, and doctors focused on the benefits of CBD and cannabinoids, as well as exploring ancient medicinal practices that reference hemp as a "cure-all"-all the while seeking to re-evaluate and re-define the application to modern disorders. Highlighted are personal experiences of these notables and an easy to understand collection of information showing how CBD works with many chronic conditions, without the risk of significant side effects.
Alongside the expected research and analysis, Lewis supplies readers with a solid basis upon which to select the right delivery system for themselves and their families. Whether that be the combination of topicals and tinctures for neurological/chronic pain or an "as needed" softgel regimen to encourage the return to an optimum state of homeostasis, consumers will understand how CBD interacts with their bodies and why immediate and lasting relief is often found with virtually no side effects.
The author, Ryan Lewis, is the founder and CEO of Global Cannabinoids, one of the largest wholesale CBD and hemp derived cannabinoid producers, manufacturers, and distributors in the world.Lewis built the very first company to distribute American grown hemp and CBD oil and has been a pioneer in building the global supply chain for hemp cannabinoids that are now found in thousands of CBD branded products worldwide.
Whether looking to CBD for debilitating pain, seizures, anxiety, depression and stress, or cancer treatment,The Ultimate Book of CBD Remediesdives into the myriad of health complications we face today and how hemp CBD has improved the lives of men, women, and children across the globe, both by treating conditions once thought to be untreatable with modern medicine and by keeping them away from harmful and dangerous opioids.
All profits from The Ultimate Book of CBD Remedies will be donated to Children's Cancer Research, via SavingSophie.org

The Village of Ben Suc (New York Review Books Classics) by Jonathan Schell
English | November 26, 2024 | ISBN: 1681378493 | True EPUB | 160 pages | 1.1 MB
With a new introduction by Wallace Shawn, a classic work of war reportage that describes, with unblinking vision, the systematic leveling of a Vietnamese village by American troops.

In January 1967, as President Lyndon Johnson sent more forces to the war in Vietnam, the US military began what was to be the largest ground operation of the entire conflict. Not far from Saigon, the capital of South Vietnam, and close to the Cambodian border was an area known as the Iron Triangle, long under Viet Cong control. Operation Cedar Falls set out to eliminate that guerrilla threat by sealing off the region, emptying its villages, and leveling the surrounding jungle. The local population would be transferred to model "New Life Villages" under US surveillance.
The village of Ben Suc was the Americans' first target, and Jonathan Schell, a reporter at the start of his career, accompanied them there. He witnessed the destruction of the village; the frantic efforts of young soldiers to figure out who was or wasn't a foe; the destruction of people's homes and possessions; and the chaotic transfer of women, children, old men, and livestock to a refugee camp where no preparations had been made for their arrival. He described it all in measured tones and unflinching detail. As a cautionary tale about the unintended and devastating consequences of military occupation, The Village of Ben Suc remains unequaled.
"Schell's book might have been the crystal ball that could have led American policymakers to realize that quasi-imperial American interventions of this type could not succeed in the contemporary world, and if the policymakers had read Schell's book and studied it carefully, who knows, maybe a million or more Vietnamese lives could have been saved, along with the lives of fifty thousand American soldiers, along with countless lives in Afghanistan and Iraq." -From Wallace Shawn's Introduction.

Dan Moller, "The Way of Bach: Three Years with the Man, the Music, and the Piano"
English | 2020 | pages: 224 | ISBN: 1643135805 | EPUB | 2,5 mb
A tale of passion and obsession from a philosophy professor who teaches himself to play Bach on the piano.

Dan Moller grew up listening to heavy metal in the Boston suburbs. But something changed when he dug out his mother's record of The Art of the Fugue, inexplicably wedged between 16 ABBA Hits and Kenny Rogers. Moller became fixated on Bach and his music, but only learned to play it for himself as an adult.
In The Way of Bach, Moller draws us into the strange and surprisingly funny world of the composer and his scene. Did you know The Goldberg Variations contain a song about having to eat too much cabbage? Or that Handel nearly died in a duel he fought while conducting an opera?
Along the way, Moller takes up such questions as, just what is so special about Bach's music? What can Americans-steeped in pop culture-learn from European craftsmanship? And why do some people see a connection between Bach's music and God?
By turns witty and thought-provoking, Moller infuses The Way of Bach with insights into music, culture, and philosophy alike.

The Way of the Satisfied Woman: Reclaiming Feminine Power by Alanna Kaivalya
English | November 26th, 2024 | ISBN: 1608689387 | 234 pages | True PDF | 5.95 MB
EXPLORE THE FULLEST POTENTIAL OF YOUR POWER AS A WOMAN

Although women today have greater opportunity to make our own choices, build independent lives, and craft powerful careers, we all too often forge our path by following the trajectory laid out by men. By emulating what men identify as desirable goals and strategies, we deny our truest, most innate feminine qualities and desires.
The Way of the Satisfied Woman offers an alternative path for women, and for any person who cares to focus more on the feminine than the masculine. The path of the feminine is simply different - perfect in its own right yet integral and complementary to the path of the masculine. Alanna Kaivalya shows how embodying feminine energy sets us free, relaxes us, and allows us to more completely manifest the things that are most important to us, including connection, communion, and compassion. The Way of the Satisfied Woman explores:
* definitions of feminine and masculine energies that embrace gender differences and affirm the experience of the modern woman
* prominent qualities of the feminine as represented by mythological archetypes and modern psychology
* ways of redefining the feminine in modern language, ideas, and arenas, including intimate relationships, career, family, success, community, and legacy
* the relationship between masculine and feminine and its manifestations in intimate partnerships
It is time for women to take our place in the world and embrace the power, potency, and purpose of the feminine, which will profoundly impact not just our own lives, but the balance of all life around us.

The Weighted Bootstrap By Philippe Barbe, Patrice Bertail (auth.)
1995 | 230 Pages | ISBN: 0387944788 | PDF | 4 MB
INTRODUCTION 1) Introduction In 1979, Efron introduced the bootstrap method as a kind of universal tool to obtain approximation of the distribution of statistics. The now well known underlying idea is the following : consider a sample X of Xl ' n independent and identically distributed H.i.d.) random variables (r. v,'s) with unknown probability measure (p.m.) P . Assume we are interested in approximating the distribution of a statistical functional T(P ) the -1 nn empirical counterpart of the functional T(P) , where P n := n l:i=l aX. is 1 the empirical p.m. Since in some sense P is close to P when n is large, n * * LLd. from P and builds the empirical p.m. if one samples Xl ' ... , Xm n n -1 mn * * P T(P ) conditionally on := mn l: i =1 a * ' then the behaviour of P m n,m n n n X. 1 T(P ) should imitate that of when n and mn get large. n This idea has lead to considerable investigations to see when it is correct, and when it is not. When it is not, one looks if there is any way to adapt it.

Lawrence I. Conrad, "The Western Medical Tradition: 800 BC to AD 1800"
English | ISBN: 0521381355 | | 570 pages | PDF | 351 MB
The influence of Greek medical practices dating back to the fifth century B.C. has had an immeasurable impact on the development of medicine in the West over the subsequent centuries. This text is designed to cover the history of Western medicine from Classical Antiquity to 1800. As one guiding thread it takes the system of medical ideas that, in large part, went back to the Greeks of the fifth century B.C., and played a major role in the understanding and treatment of health and disease. The influence of Greek medicine spread from the Aegean basin to the rest of the Mediterranean region, to Europe, and then to European settlements overseas. By the nineteenth century, however, this tradition no longer carried the same force or occupied so central a position within medicine. This book charts the influence of this tradition through twenty centuries, examining it in its social and historical context. It is essential reading as a new synthesis for all students of the history of medicine.

The intoxicating message of Khayyam's famous Ruba'iyyat created an image of exotic Orientalism in the West but, as author Mehdi Aminrazavi reveals, Khayyam's achievements went far beyond the intoxicating message within these verses. Philosopher, mathematician, scientist, and mystic - his many different identities are examined here in detail, creating a coherent picture of this complex and often misunderstood figure.

Austin E. Quiqley, "Theoretical Inquiry: Language, Linguistics, and Literature"
English | 2003 | pages: 287 | ISBN: 030010166X | PDF | 1,0 mb
In the aftermath of debate about the death of literary theory, Austin E. Quigley asks whether theory has failed us or we have failed literary theory. Theory can thrive, he argues, only if we understand how it can be strategically deployed to reveal what it does not presuppose. This involves the repositioning of theoretical inquiry relative to historical and critical inquiry and the repositioning of theories relative to each other.

What follows is a thought-provoking reexamination of the controversial claims of pluralism in literary studies. The book explores the related roles of literary history, criticism, and theory by tracing the fascinating history of linguistics as an intellectual problem in the twentieth century. Quigley's approach clarifies the pluralistic nature of literary inquiry, the viability and life cycles of theories, the controversial status of canonicity, and the polemical nature of the culture wars by positioning them all in the context of recurring debates about language that have their earliest exemplifications in classical times.
