Stranded in the Sky: The Untold Story of Pan Am Luxury Airliners Trapped on the Day of Infamy by Philip Jett
English | May 16, 2023 | ISBN: 1684429366 | 416 pages | EPUB | 7.60 Mb
From the author of Taking Mr. Exxon and The Death of an Heir comes the untold story of four luxury airliners trapped in the Pacific Ocean on and after the Day of Infamy.In the first week of December 1941, four Pan American Airways System (Pan Am) flying clippers-the largest and most lavish transpacific airliners in the world-took off from the North American West Coast, loaded with wealthy and affluent passengers on their way to exotic destinations.On December 7, 1941, the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service executed a surprise coordinated attack against the US naval base at Pearl Harbor. Within hours, Midway Atoll, Wake Island, Guam, and Manila-all of which were refueling stops for these Pan Am flying clippers-were targeted and bombed by the same Japanese forces that had devastated Pearl Harbor.Strandedwithin the vast boundaries of the Pacific Ocean, these civilian airlines were unexpectedly at risk of being captured orshot down by Japanese military. The assault on Pearl Harbor removed any possibility for US military assistance, and the attack of the refueling stations made it impossible for these airlines to refuel their depleting gas tanks. Alone and unreachable, Pan Am crews and their frightened passengers were left with no choice but to make their own way across the volatile Pacific Ocean, where neither land, air, nor sea could promise safety, and do their best to survive-if they could.

Christopher S. Butler, "Structure and Function - A Guide to Three Major Structural-Functional Theories"
English | 2003 | pages: 594 | ISBN: 9027230706 | PDF | 4,2 mb
This book and its companion volume present a detailed guide to three major structural-functional theories: Functional Grammar, Role and Reference Grammar and Systemic Functional Grammar. This first volume provides the necessary background through a discussion of the characteristics of functional theories, followed by a brief analysis of six approaches to language in the light of this discussion. These chapters lead to a characterization of a smaller set of 'structural-functional grammars', among which FG, RRG and SFG are central. An overview of each of these theories in relation to the simplex clause is then presented, followed by a more critical comparison. The remainder of the book deals with the structure and meaning of phrasal units, the representation of situations, and the treatment of tense, aspect, modality and polarity, across the three theories. A major feature of the book is the use of examples from corpora of English and other languages, which serve not only to exemplify theoretical and descriptive claims, but also at times to challenge them.

Submerged Rice: Morphological, Molecular and Genetic Analyses by Pranab Basuchaudhuri
English | August 23, 2024 | ISBN: 1032660538 | 228 pages | PDF | 9.18 Mb
Water stagnation and submergence are major factors in rice growing. Water stagnation and submergence happen as a result of excessive rainfall or flash floods. The duration of submergence can last several weeks, and the level of water may be as high as 100 cm. This impacts rice yields. This book analyzes different aspects, viz., morphology, physiology, biochemistry and genetics, and reviews the suitability of different varieties for better sustainability and reduction of yield loss. It also reviews the different types of floods, and studies biological changes in indigenous and recently developed rice varieties. There are seven chapters: Introduction, History of floods, Diversity of submergence, Adoptive morphology, Physiological aspects, Molecular and genetic aspects, and Yield and yield-gaps. It is comprehensive with scientific dogma, findings and reasonings for students at universities and researchers.

Andreas Follesdal, "Subsidiarity "
English | ISBN: 1009571656 | 2025 | 100 pages | PDF | 2 MB
'Subsidiarity' is vague and contested, yet popular in scholarship about international law due to its role in the European Union (EU). Which conceptions of subsidiarity are more justifiable, and how might they contribute to international law? A principle of subsidiarity concerns how to establish, allocate, or use authority within a social or legal order, stating a rebuttable presumption for the local. Various historical patterns, practices, principles, and justifications offer different recommendations. Seven normative theories vary in how immunity protecting or person promoting they are. The latter appear more justifiable and withstand criticism often raised against subsidiarity. Some conceptions of person promoting subsidiarity serve as a structuring principle for international law and fullfills several criteria of a general principle of law. It can harmonize domestic and international law but is not sufficient to reduce fragmentation among sectors with different objectives.

Such Sweet Thunder: A Novel (Pushkin Press Classics) by Vincent O. Carter
English | February 4, 2025 | ISBN: 180533266X | True EPUB | 652 pages | 1.3 MB
"Astonishing ... an uncommonly rich picture of Black American family life in early 20th century Jim Crow America." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)

This "vibrant portrait of African American life" in Jazz Age Kansas City captures the magic of childhood and parental love through the eyes of a remarkable boy (New York Times)
This must-read rediscovery, published in an elegant and unabridged paperback edition with a new foreword, is a literary masterpiece poised to take its rightful place in the American literary canon.
Such Sweet Thunder immerses readers in the life of a precocious infant, Amerigo Jones, and then tells the story of his first 18 years as he becomes aware of the adult world, from racism and crime to falling in love. All the while, in one of the most moving homages to parents ever to appear in literature, Amerigo is protected by Viola and Rutherford, who are loving and, mostly, even-tempered, but also desperately young - teenagers themselves when Amerigo is born - and poor.
When it was finally published in 2003, 40 years after Carter completed it and 20 years after he died, Critics hailed the novel's "unflinching condemnation of a society that rejects bright, eager Black children" (The Cleveland Plain Dealer).
This "colossal work of fiction" (The Kansas City Star) and "vibrant portrait of African-American life" (New York Times) is set in an era marred by racial segregation and relentless, daily injustices and yet renders with deep appreciation and artistry a time and place enriched by a widely influential African American culture and a fierce feeling for family and community.

Sucker Punch: Essays by Scaachi Koul
English | March 4, 2025 | ISBN: 1250270502 | True EPUB | 272 pages | 1.2 MB
The long-awaited follow-up from one of the most original and hilarious voices writing today.

Scaachi Koul's first book was a collection of raw, perceptive, and hilarious essays reckoning with the issues of race, body image, love, friendship, and growing up the daughter of immigrants. When the time came to start writing her next book, Scaachi assumed she'd be updating her story with essays about her elaborate four-day wedding, settling down to domestic bliss, and continuing her never-ending arguments with her parents. Instead, the Covid-19 pandemic hit, Scaachi's marriage fell apart, she lost her job, and her mother was diagnosed with cancer.
Sucker Punch is about what happens when the life you thought you'd be living radically changes course, everything you thought you knew about the world and yourself has tilted on its axis, and you have to start forging a new path forward. Scaachi employs her biting wit to interrogate her previous belief that fighting is the most effective tool for progress. She examines the fights she's had―with her parents, her ex-husband, her friends, online strangers, and herself―all in an attempt to understand when a fight is worth having, and when it's better to walk away.

Kashshaf Ghani, "Sufi Rituals and Practices: Experiences from South Asia, 1200-1450"
English | ISBN: 0192889222 | 2024 | 306 pages | EPUB | 14 MB
The book is an in-depth study of the lesser-explored history of Sufi practices in South Asia. Covering the formative period of Sufism in this region, the work studies practices like 'sama' (listening to poetry and music) and 'zikr' (remembrance of God) through the careers of the earliest Sufi orders in the region, 'Chishti and Suhrawardi'. The book allows the reader critical insight into 'Sufi exercises', the meaning, structure, and performance of sama, the long debate on the legality of music, dance and poetry as religious practices, tensions between Sufis and the State around the permissibility of sama, zikr as a core Sufi exercise, the practice of sama and zikr across orders, and the importance of etiquette in Sufi communities. The work essentially understands spiritual practices as a critical element in the development of Sufism in South Asia. Moving beyond the limits of the north-south binary, the author also focuses on the Deccan, weaving a seamless narrative that reflects the contributions of generations of important Sufi masters. Shedding light on the private world of Sufi practices, the work, for the first time, introduces English language readers to a full-length translation of a treatise written in defence of listening to music and poetry as an integral spiritual exercise.

Suicide by Proxy in Early Modern Germany: Crime, Sin and Salvation by Kathy Stuart
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 480 Pages | ISBN : 3031252438 | 112.3 MB
Suicide by Proxy became a major societal problem after 1650. Suicidal people committed capital crimes with the explicit goal of "earning" their executions, as a short-cut to their salvation. Desiring to die repentantly at the hands of divinely-instituted government, perpetrators hoped to escape eternal damnation that befell direct suicides. Kathy Stuart shows how this crime emerged as an unintended consequence of aggressive social disciplining campaigns by confessional states. Paradoxically, suicide by proxy exposed the limits of early modern state power, as governments struggled unsuccessfully to suppress the tactic. Some perpetrators committed arson or blasphemy, or confessed to long-past crimes, usually infanticide, or bestiality. Most frequently, however, they murdered young children, believing that their innocent victims would also enter paradise. The crime had cross-confessional appeal, as illustrated in case studies of Lutheran Hamburg and Catholic Vienna.
