The Future of Nudity: Exploring the Evolution of Nudity and Body Freedom In Our Modern World....And What We Can Expect in the Years Ahead by Kristin Williams English | August 14, 2024 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0DB867155 | 55 pages | EPUB | 0.08 Mb Let's be honest-nudity is one of those topics that gets people talking, blushing, and maybe even squirming a little bit in their seats. But for those of us who've embraced the liberating lifestyle of living nude, it's something to celebrate, not shy away from. So here we are, ready to dive headfirst into the fascinating, sometimes controversial, but always intriguing world of nudity. Welcome to The Future of Nudity-where we're going to explore what body freedom looks like in our modern world and how it's evolving faster than you can say "clothing optional." Now, if you're already a card-carrying nudist (figuratively speaking, of course-where would you keep the card?), you probably know the joys that come with shedding those unnecessary layers. The freedom! The connection to nature! The utter bliss of not having to worry about matching socks! But even if you're just curious about the idea of nudity or wondering why anyone would want to stroll around in their birthday suit, this book is for you too. We're living in a time where the conversation around nudity is changing. What was once considered taboo or scandalous is now being reevaluated, redefined, and, in many circles, embraced as a healthy, natural way to live. The world is slowly but surely catching on to what we nudists have known all along-there's nothing more empowering, more freeing, or more joyful than being comfortable in your own skin, literally. In this book, we're going to explore the past, present, and future of nudity. We'll take a look at how different cultures throughout history have viewed the naked body, how modern nudism has developed, and what the future might hold for body freedom in a world that's increasingly connected, yet often still divided on issues of personal expression. And don't worry-we're going to keep things light, fun, and full of the positive energy that comes naturally when you're living life without the constraints of clothing. We'll talk about everything from the legalities of public nudity (because, yes, sometimes you do need to know where and when it's okay to let it all hang out) to the role of nudity in art, media, and social change. We'll also dive into the psychology of nudity-how being naked affects your mind, your body image, and your relationships with others. And of course, we'll discuss the exciting ways technology is intersecting with nudism, from virtual communities to the impact of social media. But most importantly, this book is about celebrating the human body in all its forms. It's about embracing who you are, feeling confident in your skin, and rejecting the notion that you need to hide or cover up to be accepted. Whether you're a seasoned nudist or someone just dipping their toes into the idea, I hope this book inspires you to see nudity not as something to be feared, but as something to be celebrated.

Margrit Schulte Beerbühl, "The Forgotten Majority: German Merchants in London, Naturalization, and Global Trade 1660-1815 " English | ISBN: 1782384472 | 2014 | 326 pages | PDF | 2 MB The "forgotten majority" of German merchants in London between the end of the Hanseatic League and the end of the Napoleonic Wars became the largest mercantile Christian immigrant group in the eighteenth century. Using previously neglected and little used evidence, this book assesses the causes of their migration, the establishment of their businesses in the capital, and the global reach of the enterprises. As the acquisition of British nationality was the admission ticket to Britain's commercial empire, it investigates the commercial function of British naturalization policy in the early modern period, while also considering the risks of failure and chance for a new beginning in a foreign environment. As more German merchants integrated into British commercial society, they contributed to London becoming the leading place of exchange between the European continent, Russia, and the New World.

The First Cold War: Anglo-Russian Relations in the 19th Century by Barbara Emerson English | August 1, 2024 | ISBN: 180526057X | 560 pages | MOBI | 13 Mb Britain and Russia maintained a frosty civility for a few years after Napoleon's defeat in 1815. But, by the 1820s, their relations degenerated into constant acrimonious rivalry over Persia, the Ottoman Empire, Central Asia-the Great Game-and, towards the end of the century, East Asia. The First Cold War presents for the first time the Russian perspective on this 'game', drawing on the archives of the Tsars' Imperial Ministry. Both world powers became convinced of the expansionist aims of the other, and considered these to be at their own expense. When one was successful, the other upped the ante, and so it went on. London and St Petersburg were at war only once, during the Crimean War. But Russophobia and Anglophobia became ingrained on each side, as these two great empires hovered on the brink of hostilities for nearly 100 years. Not until Britain and Russia recognized that they had more to fear from Wilhelmine Germany did they largely set aside their rivalries in the Anglo-Russian Convention of 1907, which also had major repercussions for the balance of power in Europe. Before that came a century of competition, diplomacy and tension, lucidly charted in this comprehensive new history.

Sergia Gonzalez Rodriguez, Michael Parker-Stainback, "The Femicide Machine" English | 2012 | ISBN: 1584351101 | PDF | pages: 69 | 2.2 mb An account and analysis of the systematic murder of women and girls in the Mexican border town of Ciudad Juárez. In Ciudad Juarez, a territorial power normalized barbarism. This anomalous ecology mutated into a femicide machine: an apparatus that didn't just create the conditions for the murders of dozens of women and little girls, but developed the institutions that guarantee impunity for those crimes and even legalize them. A lawless city sponsored by a State in crisis. The facts speak for themselves. -from The Femicide Machine Best known to American readers for his cameo appearances as The Journalist in Roberto Bolano's 2666 and as a literary detective in Javier Marías's novel Dark Back of Time, Sergio González Rodríguez is one of Mexico's most important contemporary writers. He is the author of Bones in the Desert, the most definitive work on the murders of women and girls in Juárez, Mexico, as well as The Headless Man, a sharp meditation on the recurrent uses of symbolic violence; Infectious, a novel; and Original Evil, a long essay. The Femicide Machine is the first book by González Rodríguez to appear in English translation. Written especially for Semiotext(e) Intervention series, The Femicide Machine synthesizes González Rodríguez's documentation of the Juárez crimes, his analysis of the unique urban conditions in which they take place, and a discussion of the terror techniques of narco-warfare that have spread to both sides of the border. The result is a gripping polemic. The Femicide Machine probes the anarchic confluence of global capital with corrupt national politics and displaced, transient labor, and introduces the work of one of Mexico's most eminent writers to American readers.

Peter G. Smithurst, "The Evolution of Gun Making: Machine made weapons, 1700-1820" English | ISBN: 1036107787 | 2024 | 224 pages | EPUB | 25 MB Examines the shift from hand-craft to mechanized firearm production, focusing on the French Model 1777 and Russian Model 1808 muskets. A variety of factors surround military firearms - they needed to be produced in large numbers to a standardised pattern at an affordable price. This books examines the transition from traditional hand-craft methods to the beginnings of mechanised manufacture using as examples the French Model 1777 and the Russian Model 1808 infantry muskets. A number of factors led to this choice. The French Model 1777 musket, designed by Honoré Blanc working under General Gribeauval, contained many novel features which became blueprints for the arms of numerous countries and was copied in its entirety by Russia. Another factor is that they are the only firearms whose manufacture is covered in contemporary accounts. A third factor is that they provide contrasts in their methods of manufacture; the French 1777 musket was largely produced by hand-craft methods, whereas in Russia we see the beginnings of extensive mechanisation in the early 19th century. Another important aspect which appears is 'interchangeability' - the ability to exchange identical parts of identical mechanism without 'special adjustment'. This is a vital factor at the foundation of modern manufacturing and first appears in early 18th century France, was pursued again by Blanc in 1777 and was picked up in Russia. For the first time, all these 'technologies' are examined, explained, compared and contrasted in extensive detail.

The Downfall of God: A History of Atheism in the West: From Prehistory to 1600 by S. T. Joshi English | November 12, 2024 | ISBN: 1634312589 | True EPUB | 515 pages | 1.4 MB Atheism has been on the rise in the West for several decades, but its roots, including those belonging to secularism, agnosticism, and freethought, run deep in Western history, philosophy, and thought. Drawing on a multitude of sources from a number of disciplines, S. T. Joshi outlines the natural origins of religious belief in primitive times and charts the slow development of secular accounts of natural phenomena in the Greco-Roman world. Adopting the "Christ myth" theory, he surveys the emergence of a new faith-Christianity-that grew out of Judaism and explores its evolution through the medieval period. He then examines the increasing schisms within the church and conflicts between religious and political entities that caused a fracturing of the monolith of Christianity and the birth of the Renaissance, which not only brought to light the literary glories of the Greco-Roman world but also led to a scientific resurgence and the development of a secular view of the cosmos. By the end of the sixteenth century, as he concludes, the stage was set for the emergence of a worldview free of religion.

The Dialectical Method: A Treatise Hegel Never Wrote By Clark Butler 2011 | 276 Pages | ISBN: 1616144890 | PDF | 8 MB Most people, if they have heard anything about Hegel, associate him with the "dialectical method" he claimed to use. The associated "Hegelian dialectic" is often cavalierly explained as thesis, antithesis, and synthesis. Yet, in fact, Hegel never wrote any substantial account of dialectical logic or dialectical method. This book reopens the whole question of the dialectical method in a contemporary context. Dialectical logic is explained in terms of variations on indirect proof translatable into today's standard formal logic, and evidence is given that it can be found embedded in individual and collective histories. Hegel scholar Clark Butler distinguishes Hegel's use of the dialectical method for understanding the standpoint of the present from its little-recognized adaptation by Sigmund Freud and from its well-known use by Karl Marx. Butler notes a strong convergence emerging from the historical Hegel, psychoanalysis, and historical materialism. Beyond Hegel scholarship, he suggests ways of continuing Hegel's work in our own time. This book will be of interest not only to Hegel scholars but also to students of history, psychoanalysis, Marxism, theology, and formal logic.

The Demands of Liberal Education By Meira Levinson 2002 | 250 Pages | ISBN: 0199250448 | PDF | 21 MB What should the aims of education be in a liberal society? Who should exercise control over education? How can children be taught to become good citizens of a pluralistic state? The Demands of Liberal Education seeks to answer these questions by drawing on political theory, philosophy of education, and empirical research to develop a liberal theory of children's education. Author Meira Levinson argues that contrary to the assumptions of many philosophers, educators, parents, and politicians, the liberal state is obligated as a matter of justice to help all children develop the capacity for autonomy. Forwarding a provocative new view, Levinson contends that liberal governments should exercise much greater control over schools than they currently maintain.

The Decline and Fall of the Ptolemies: Ptolemaic Egypt 146-30 BC by John D Grainger English | 2024 | ISBN: 1399090127 | 257 Pages | PDF | 43 MB Explores the turbulent reign of Ptolemy VIII, his successors, and Egypt's decline under Roman influence. The death of Ptolemy VI brought his younger brother Ptolemy VIII to the kingship. This was the start of a prolonged, if intermittent, turbulent period of family strife, punctuated by rebellions, Descriptions and wars. One king, Ptolemy VII, was murdered, Ptolemy VIII's two simultaneous wives Descriptionted and rebelled, and when he died one of these, Kleopatra III, was his effective successor. Ptolemy VIII was in fact not a bad king in some ways, and encouraged the exploitation of the discovery of the monsoon climate of the Indian Ocean to develop trade with India, as well as using his (much reduced) navy to maintain contact with the lands of the Mediterranean. Kleopatra III made a renewed effort to reconquer Palestine, but failed (Eighth Syrian War). From the death of Ptolemy IX in 80 BC there were two overriding problems. Ptolemy IX was the last legitimate Ptolemy, and the succession was constantly in dispute from then on. And looming over all was the rising power of Rome. This had been largely absent from the eastern Mediterranean until the Mithradatic wars brought its power repeatedly into the East. Egypt gradually became drawn into the republic's orbit, mainly as a source of cash to fund its wars and the greed of the Roman aristocracy until, choosing the side of Mark Antony, the final Ptolemy, Kleopatra VII, went down to defeat before Octavian's forces.

Leffler, "The Dangerous First Year: National Security at the Start of a New Presidency" English | 2016 | ASIN: B01M1CKYA6 | EPUB | pages: 86 | 0.6 mb "You've got to give it all you can that first year.... You've got just one year when they treat you right, and before they start worrying about themselves.... So, you've got one year."-Lyndon B. Johnson, January 1965 In an increasingly polarized political environment, the first year of the new president's term will be especially challenging. With a fresh mandate, however, the first year also offers opportunities that may never come again. The First Year Project is a fascinating initiative by the Miller Center of the University of Virginia that brings together top scholars on the American presidency and experienced officials to explore the first twelve months of past administrations, and draw practical lessons from that history, as we prepare to inaugurate a new president in January 2017. This project is the basis for a new series of digital shorts published as Miller Center Studies on the Presidency. Addressing the theme of national security, this debut volume examines the first-year experiences of five previous administrations, including those of John F. Kennedy, Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush. Presented as specially priced collections published exclusively in an ebook format, these timely examinations recognize the experiences of past presidents as an invaluable resource that can edify and instruct the incoming president.

The Cinema of Wang Bing: Chinese Documentary between History and Labor by Bruno Lessard English | December 2, 2023 | ISBN: 9888805770 | True EPUB | 188 pages | 19.8 MB An examination of the films of Chinese documentarian Wang Bing. In The Cinema of Wang Bing, Bruno Lessard examines documentarian Wang Bing's most important films. He focuses on the two obsessions at the heart of Wang's oeuvre-the legacy of Maoist China in the present and the transformation of labor since China's entry into the market economy-and how the crucial figures of survivor and worker are represented on screen. Bruno Lessard argues that Wang is a minjian (grassroots) intellectual whose films document the impact of Mao's Great Leap Forward on Chinese collective memory and register the repercussions of China's turn to neoliberalism on workers in the post-Reform era. Bringing together Chinese documentary studies and China studies, Lessard shows how Wang's practice reflects the minjian ethos when documenting the survivors of the Great Famine and those who have not benefitted from China's neoliberal policies-from laid-off workers to migrant workers. The films discussed include some of Wang's most celebrated works such as West of the Tracks and Dead Souls, as well as neglected documentaries such as Coal Money and Bitter Money.

The Chinese Émigrés of Thailand in the Twentieth Century By Disaphol Chansiri 2008 | 248 Pages | ISBN: 1934043745 | PDF | 18 MB examines Thai-Chinese relations, dating back to the first Thai dynasty (Sukhothai) to the present (Ratanakosin). The study explores the Thai domestic policies that have affected the Chinese population since World War II and assimilation policies of the Thai government towards the Chinese. This book also analyzes both Skinner's and Chan and Tong's arguments, and their main idea in the context of the present day environment and situation for the ethnic Chinese. This research supports the Skinnerian paradigm, which asserts that "a majority of the descendants of Chinese immigrants in each generation merge with Thai society and become indistinguishable from the indigenous population to the extent that fourth-generation Chinese are practically non-existent." The validation of the Skinnerian paradigm rejects Chan and Tong's hypothesis, which claims that Skinner has "overemphasized the forces of assimilation" and that the Chinese in Thailand have not assimilated but retained their Chinese identity. To support Skinner's assertion and reject Chan and Tong's argument, this book presents rich empirical data collected via surveys conducted with the ethnic Chinese in Thailand from 2003-2004. This study uncovers that the forces of assimilation occur at two levels. On the first level, the Chinese in Thailand possess natural attributes which facilitate social and cultural integration and assimilation into Thai society. On the second level, government pro-assimilation policies, driven by the bilateral relations between Thailand and China and the political situation in both countries, are also responsible for the assimilation of the Chinese in Thailand. As the most current in-depth study on the Chinese in Thailand, The Chinese Émigrés of Thailand in the Twentieth Century is a critical addition for all collections in Asian Studies as well as Ethnic and Immigrant Studies.

The Children of the Ghetto: Star of the Sea by Elias Khoury, translated by Humphrey Davies English | November 12, 2024 | ISBN: 1962770060 | True EPUB | 417 pages | 1 MB An acclaimed Lebanese writer speaks to the complexity of the Palestinian experience in a devastating account of resilience and loss "Gives voice to rooted exiles and trapped refugees, to dissolving boundaries and changing identities, to radical demands and new languages." - Edward Said Weaving personal and cultural memory into a tale that humanizes the complex Palestinian experience, Star of the Sea traces the contours of the unspeakable. Adam Dannoun's story is one of beginnings. Born in a war-torn Israel, Adam dreams of becoming a writer. He is just an infant when Jewish forces uproot and massacre thousands of Palestinians in the 1948 Nakba, including his own father. Adam's mother, crumbling with loss, takes her son to Haifa and remarries. Soon she feels stifled by her new husband. Adam flees this lifeless home and writes himself a second beginning. With nothing but his father's will and the image of his mother at the doorway, Adam is born again into the streets of Haifa. Here he spins a new life alongside an auto-shop owner, Gabriel. Adam Dannoun shapeshifts into Adam Danon, an Israeli born into the Warsaw ghetto, and Gabriel's younger brother. There are limits to this charade, lines he's forbidden to cross-and when he falls in love with Gabriel's only daughter he steps, unawares, into a third life. Life after life, Adam confronts the horrors of his past. Following My Name Is Adam, Star of the Sea is the second installment of a brilliant trilogy-an epic tale of love, survival, and ongoing devastation.

The Chatter of the Visible: Montage and Narrative in Weimar Germany by Patrizia C. McBride English | March 22, 2016 | ISBN: 0472053035 | True EPUB | 246 pages | 3.8 MB The Chatter of the Visible examines the paradoxical narrative features of the photomontage aesthetics of artists associated with Dada, Constructivism, and the New Objectivity. While montage strategies have commonly been associated with the purposeful interruption of and challenge to narrative consistency and continuity, McBride offers an historicized reappraisal of 1920s and 1930s German photomontage work to show that its peculiar mimicry was less a rejection of narrative and more an extension or permutation of it-a means for thinking in narrative textures exceeding constraints imposed by "flat" print media (especially the novel and other literary genres). McBride's contribution to the conversation around Weimar-era montage is in her situation of the form of the work as a discursive practice in its own right, which affords humans a new way to negotiate temporality, as a particular mode of thinking that productively relates the particular to the universal, or as a culturally specific form of cognition.
