Alan Krell
The Devil`s Rope: A Cultural History of Barbed Wire

2002 y.
Publisher: Reaktion Books
Description: While barbed wire has always cut across property, war and politics as a tool of control, it has other histories, constructed through image and text in the arts, media and popular culture, which have never before been examined. Invented in France in 1860 and welcomed by the frontier farmers of America, the menacing qualities of barbed wire became evident in the Boer War, the barbed wire no-man`s-land of World War I, and the Nazi concentration camps of World War II. Barbed wire became synonymous with repression. In the art of the late-twentieth century, its ambivalent character has made barbed wire the perfect symbol of post-modernity. Alan Krell`s amazing story investigates the place barbed wire holds in the social imagination. Формат издания: 15,5 см х 23,5 см. [detailed...]

The Devil`s Rose

2007 y.
Publisher: Abrams Books
Description: From the creator of the celebrated Plucker comes a frightening glimpse into hell and the afterlife. Escapees from the fiery underworld fill the richly illustrated pages of this novel set in modern-day Texas. They terrify and slay the living while trying to elude the guards who have been sent to round them up. Cole, one of the undead, has been sent to reclaim these souls in flight and return them to the fiery depths. But one escaped soul is not like the others: Rath, who in fact wants to return to hell. But why? And why does Cole, a tormented soul from hell, strive to capture his fellow hellmates? It has to do with a woman named Rose—a woman he has wronged—and a pact he made with the devil.

Федор Достоевский
The Devils

2004 y.
Publisher: Penguin Books Ltd.
Description: In `The Devils` Dostoyevsky created a chilling and prophetic story of revolutionaries and nihilists plotting the overthrow of the Russian government and the downfall of the Russian church. It focuses on the complex and tormented character of Stavrogin, a desperate man whose loss of faith makes him dangerous. Believing he is beyond guilt and remorse, he commits terrible crimes, infects others with ideas he does not believe and accepts love he does not deserve. Yet Stavrogin is only one of a small band of rebels whose hunger for a more democratic, Western system threatens the fabric of Russian society, and The Devils is a brilliant psychological analysis of a group of people possessed by a destructive passion for revolution.

Harold A. Hovey, The Century Foundation/Twentieth Century Fund
The Devolution Revolution Can the States Afford Devolution?

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: One underlying premise of the move toward devolution is that states are more capable of successfully managing various tasks than the federal government because they are better able to adapt to the particular challenges within their borders. The resourcesavailable to states to carry out those duties, however, are also limited to their ability to raise revenues from their own residents. In this report, Harold A. Hovey explores the constraints that states face in collecting taxes and assesses which states are best and least prepared to finance any added responsibilities. Among the forces Hovey examines that affect state fiscal capacity: competitive pressures among states to keep taxes low, tax systems that may or may not collect revenue at the same ratethat incomes rise, the impact of local and national economic cycles, the economic resources within each state, and mismatches between revenues and needs.

The Dharma Bums

Publisher: Penguin Books Ltd.
Description: Following the explosive energy of On the Road comes `The Dharma Bums`, in which Kerouac charts the spiritual quest of a group of friends in search of Dharma, or Truth. Ray Smith and his friend Japhy, along with Morley the yodeller, head off into the High Sierras to seek the lesson of solitude and experience the Zen way of life. But in wildly Bohemian San Francisco, with its poetry jam sessions, marathon drinking bouts and experiments in `yabyum`, they find the ascetic route distinctly hard to follow.

The Diabetic Patients Handbook: The Easy Guide To Managing Your Diabetes, Second Edition

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionWHY READ THIS BOOK? It has been said that without your health you have nothing. Having good health is a goal shared by all people regardless of their social or economic standing. Good health, like other desirable goals in life, is often not given to you, but has to be earned and then you can lose it without warning. If you are reading these words then you or someone close to you has diabetes. After getting over the initial shock of this news you can decide to do one of two things. Hope the doctor was wrong and it goes away or Declare war on it and fight back! Lets talk about the first choice. Persons with diabetes have a risk of dying from diabetic complication that is 1.5 to 2 times the general population. Ignoring the problem would not appear to be very wise. I recommend the second choice because the twin soldiers of knowledge and action can defeat diabetes. If you are at risk to become a diabetic it is not inevitable that you will develop it….

The Dialogue between Higher Education Research and Practice

Description: Book DescriptionNearly 24 years ago, in November 1979, 26 scholars and administrators, from 12 countries, met in the Sorbonne in Paris at the `First European AIR Forum`, to discuss `Institutional Research in North America and Europe`. Most of the European participants had not heard of `institutional research`, but discovered that what some of them had been engaged in for most of their careers was this very topic! Over the intervening period, 26 has grown to over 400 participants in the Annual Forum, a separate European Association (EAIR) has been established, and the Association`s influential journal, Tertiary Education And Management, is published quarterly and is now in its 9th year. This book addresses the interface between research, policy and practice in the fields of Higher Education Management and Institutional Research. It provides an overview of the current state of research and best managerial practice in the field of HE Management, so vital to the well-being of higher… [detailed...]

The Dialogues of Time and Entropy

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionAryeh Lev Stollman`s first novel, The Far Euphrates , was hailed as `radiant` and `remarkable` by The New York Times Book Review . The Boston Globe called his second novel, The Illuminated Soul , `profound`. But Stollman`s career began with stories that have appeared in leading literary journals, including American Short Fiction, The Yale Review , The Southwest Review , Tikkun , and Story magazine. Collected here, they address the themes he has grappled with so memorably in his novels: `the pull of the past over the present and the profound effects that one person can have on another` ( San Francisco Chronicle ), the aftershocks of the Holocaust, the convergence of science, the imagination, and the spiritual realm, and the way art can shape our humanity. In these stories, Stollman continues to blend the everyday with the mystical, the mundane with the extraordinary, and the waking world with the world of dreams. [detailed...]

The Diaper-Free Baby: The Natural Toilet Training Alternative

2007 y.
Publisher: Collins Living
Description: Imagine infants free from painful diaper rash, new parenthood without thousands of dollars wasted in diapering costs, toilet training that is natural and no coercive, and, most important, happier babies and parents. As Christine Gross-Loh reveals in her progressive, enlightening book, all this is possible and more. Infants are born with the ability to communicate their need to `go,` just as they communicate hunger or sleepiness. Gross-Loh, a mother of two children who were diaper-free at eighteen and fifteen months, uses the tenets of `elimination communication,` or EC, to teach parents how to identify and respond to their baby or toddler`s natural cues. Unlike the all-or-nothing approach of some parenting books, The Diaper-Free Baby addresses three categories of parents: full-time, part-time, and occasional EC`ers. Parents can practice EC as much or as little as fits their family and lifestyle. A support group within a book, The Diaper-Free Baby also includes inspiring… [detailed...]
