Things go unexpectedly from the beginning, when Aiden discovers a drawing that seems to suggest a bigfoot-like character in the monument's ghost town, and the students are trapped by an earthquake that not only seals them in the caves but also seems to transport them to an entirely new world populated by Sasquatch and ruled by a human tyrant.

Essays in Persuasion, John Maynard Keynes , , , The essays in this volume show Keynes's attempts to influence the course of events by public persuasion over the period of In the light of subsequent history, Essays in Persuasion is a remarkably prophetic volume covering a wide range of issues in political economy. In articles on the Versailles Treaty. John Maynard Keynes foresaw all too clearly that excessive Allied demands for reparations and indemnities would lead to the economic collapse of Germany.

In Keynes's essays on inflation and deflation, the reader can find ideas that were to become the foundations of his most renowned treatise, The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money With startling accuracy Keynes forecast the economic fluctuations that were to beset the economies of Europe and the United States and even proposed measures which, if heeded at the time, might have warded off an era of world-wide depression.

His views on Soviet Russia, on the decline of laissez-faire, and the possibilities of economic growth are as relevant today as when Keynes originally set them forth.

At first glance this may be just? However, if the firearm is obsolete and no new parts are available, the? You find that you can neither buy a new or used part and you have nothing to use as a pattern in making or locating a replacement part. To put the situation in a nutshell Until LeeRoy Wisner wrote this book, that is. This is the first and only book ever written to help you repair guns you simply cannot find parts for by giving you drawings and dimensions you can use to manufacture - or have manufactured for you - the part you need.

It can also help you identify the miscellaneous parts you have in your shop, or find at gun shows. The parts in the following pages are drawn from actual parts. The drawings are NOT based upon original or even secondary factory blueprints - in the vast majority of cases such blueprints or machinist drawings simply no longer exist. But, because these drawings are based upon used parts, parts that came out of guns that may have seen lots of wear during use, or parts that may have been hand-fitted during assembly when the guns were made, you may have to vary some dimensions of the parts you make from these drawings to get them to function properly in the gun you are repairing.

Expect, at the very least be prepared, to custom fit the part you make to your particular firearm.

Esbjornson , , , Wolves and the Wilderness in the Middle Ages, Aleksander Pluskowski , , , The wolf, a common metaphor for vice in medieval Christian literature, is today an iconic symbol of the intense fear and insecurity that some associate with the middle ages. In reality, responses to wolves varied across medieval Europe. Although not dependent on the wilderness, wolves were conceptually linked to this environment - which although on the fringes of medieval society, became increasingly exploited from the eighth to fourteenth centuries, so bringing people and livestock closer to the wolf.

This book compares responses to wolves, focusing on two regions, Britain and southern Scandinavia.

Did you get a clearer sense of her impetus as a writer of the motives, the purposes, that drove her? Habegger pays close attention to the books Dickinson is known to have read. Which books or authors seem to have made a big difference to her? Were there any that helped her define her own vocation as poet 3.

Does it surprise you that over a thousand letters by Dickinson have survived, including several long ones from her girlhood? What does this extensive correspondence suggest about her? Was there anything in her letters that struck you as especially revealing? Do you see any connections between her writing of letters and her writing of poems? Does it make sense to you that Dickinson was apparently opposed to the publication of her poems yet sent many of them to friends? How would you explain the contradiction? One of the difficulties a biographer faces in understanding Dickinsons relationships is that almost none of her friends letters to her are extant.

What effect does this gap in the evidence have on our understanding of her life? What patterns do you see in her relationships? As a rule, who seems to be the more needy, she or her correspondents and friends? How would you characterize her thirty-year friendship with Susan Gilbert Dickinson?

Habegger gives considerable attention to the poets relationship with Master, identifying this figure as the Reverend Charles Wadsworth. Do you find this identification convincing? If so, what do you think Dickinsons love of this man tells us about her? Why did Wadsworth appeal to her? In what ways was he a surprising and even inappropriate choice?

Was there something in her that gravitated toward an impossible and inaccessible lover? Edward Dickinson, the poets father, has been viewed by some as a tyrannical presence in her life. Habegger doesnt see him in this way, yet emphasizes his reactionary views on women and his authority as an old-fashioned paterfamilias.

In what ways was the poet apparently satisfied to depend on Edwards authority? In what ways did she challenge or escape it? Can it be said that in some ways she modeled herself on him? Finally, how would you characterize the father-daughter relationship? What do you see as her most unusual qualities and tendencies? At what moments in her life did she strike you as seriously isolated from others? At what points did she seem recognizably maybe even ordinarily social?

Why do you think Habegger gives so much attention to her mothers and fathers families, and to early nineteenth-century developments such as the resurgence of Calvinist evangelicalism and the founding of Amherst College? Did these preliminary and contextual matters help you understand Dickinsons development? Certain Christian ideas the crucifixion, the immortal soul, heaven often show up in Dickinsons poetry. Yet from girlhood on, she resisted the conversion experienced by most of her early friends and by everyone in her immediate family.

So what would you say: Was she a religious poet or not? What unanswered questions do you have about Dickinson after reading Habeggers biography? What one question would you ask him if you had the chance?

What one moment in the poets life do you wish you could have witnessed, or asked her about? Do you think she would have been willing to satisfy your curiosity? The book as the subject of a distinct historical discipline dates from the landmark publication of L'Apparition du livre by Lucien Febvre and Henri-Jean Martin in In this further contribution to his pathbreaking work with Febvre, eminent French historian Henri-Jean Martin explores the role of the book and book industry in early modern France.

Martin begins with a sweeping look at the revolutionary role played by the new technology of printing in Europe of the Renaissance and Reformation. Shifting the focus to France, he then examines the political implications of publishing in the reign of Francis I, including such topics as the founding of royal and university libraries, the role of church-state relations, Richelieu's cultural program, and censorship. In revealing case studies of Rouen and Grenoble, Martin pinpoints precisely which books were sold and to which social groups, and explains why the initially successful printers of Rouen were eventually forced out of business by the Parisian courts.

Martin also casts a discerning eye on early graphic designfrom the first illustrated "coffee table" books purchased by the newly rich to the invention of the paragraph to facilitate reading. And he shows how attempts by the French government to suppress and control publication were eventually thwarted by free market forces from Amsterdam and Neufchatel. This is a book that will be of interest to those who study the history of the book, intellectual history of early modern Europe, and the relation between politics and ideas. Yorkshire in the 17th Century, Jack Binns , , , Choosing Your Independent School: Health, healing, and religion: Explicitly dealing with the religious aspects of healing and healers, this unique and intriguing book examines illness, healing, and religion in cross-cultural perspective by looking at how sickness is understood and treated in a wide variety of cultures.

Centered around three principle themes, the text: A illustrates how crucial it is to frame illness in a meaningful context in every culture and how this process is almost always bound up with religious, spiritual, and moral concerns; B shows how many beliefs, strategies, and practices that characterize traditional cultures also appear in Christianity, putting healing in the Christian tradition in a broad, rational context, and; C discusses the continuities between traditional, explicitly religious, and modern medical cultures demonstrating that many features of modern scientific medicine are symbolic and ritualistic, and that many aspects and practices of modern medicine are similar to healing as seen in traditional, pre-scientific medical cultures.

For those in the religious, anthropological and medical professions. Handbook of the Scottish Central Institutions: Ramsey; of a small group of strangers in Denver, Colorado who are mysteriously brought together to find a spiritual solution to this crime. The story focuses on breaking through denial and eventually leads the reader to a message of hope and healing Spanish Greens, Miranda Pearson , , , Fifty Eight Poems, , Robin Thurston , , , Once an obscure group of outcasts from the ghettoes of West Kingston, Jamaica, the Rastafarians have transformed themselves into a vibrant movement, firmly grounded in Jamaican society and beyond.

In Rastafari, Ennis Barrington Edmonds provides a compelling portrait of the Rastafarian phenomenon and chronicles how this group, much maligned and persecuted, became a dominant cultural force in the world today. Edmonds charts the evolution of the relationship between Rastafari and the wider Jamaican society, from confrontation and repression to grudging tolerance and eventually to cultural integration.

Edmonds focuses in particular on the internal development of Rastafarianism as a social movement, with its network of "houses" small, informal groups that form around leading Rastas and "mansions" larger, more communal associations , to track the process of this strikingly successful integration. He further demonstrates how Rastafarian artistic creativity, especially in fashioning the music and message of reggae, was a significant factor in the transition of Rastas from the status of outcasts to the position of cultural bearers.

Tang , , , Writer's Notebook Ibm, Coronado , ,. Managerialism and the Public Services: Cuts Or Cultural Change in the s? Managerialism and the Public Services shows how, during the s, a new orthodoxy was imposed on many American and British public services. In this second edition, Christopher Pollitt carefully analyses the ideas and practices that went into this would-be revolution.

He identifies strengths and weaknesses in the ideas themselves, and charts the extensive resistance offered by many of those who worked in the services concerned. Pollitt also reviews the main alternatives to the new orthodoxy and considers how, from the late s, an important new emphasis on cultural change and quality improvement has appeared.

In conclusion, he reflects on the difficulty of achieving quality services in a climate of expenditure restraint.

This history of three powerful family firms located in different European countries takes place over a period of more than two hundred years. The interplay and the changing social and legal arrangements of the families shaped the development of a European capitalism quite different from the Anglo-American variety.

The Journals of Aiden Hunter : The Marakata Shard by David Edward Albright (2012, Paperback)

Qualifying claims by Alfred Chandler and David Landes that family firms tend to be dysfunctional, Harold James shows how and why these steel and engineering firms were successful over long periods of time. Indeed, he sees the family enterprise as particularly conducive to managing risk during periods of upheaval and uncertainty when both states and markets are disturbed.

He also identifies the key roles played by women executives during such times. In "Family Capitalism," James tells how "iron masters" of a classical industrial cast were succeeded by new generations who wanted to shift to information-age systems technologies, and how families and firms wrestled with social and economic changes that occasionally tore them apart. Finally, the author shows how the trajectories of the firms were influenced by political, military, economic, and social events and how these firms illuminate a European model of "relationship capitalism.

While scholars in political science, social psychology, and mass communications have made notable contributions to understanding democratic citizenship, they concentrate on very different dimensions of citizenship. The current volume challenges this fragmentary pattern of inquiry, and adopts an interdisciplinary approach to the analysis of citizenship that offers new insights and integrates previously disparate research agendas. It also suggests the possibility of informed interventions aimed at meeting new challenges faced by citizens in modern democracies.

The volume is organized around five themes related to democratic citizenship: These themes address the key challenges to existing perspectives on citizenship, represent themes that are central to the health of democratic societies, and reflect ongoing lines of research that offer important contributions to an interdisciplinary political psychology perspective on citizenship. In several cases, scholars may be unaware of work in other disciplines on the same topic and might well benefit from greater intellectual commerce.

These themes provide excellent opportunities for the interdisciplinary cross-talk that characterizes the contributions to this volume by prominent scholars from psychology, political science, sociology, and mass communications. In the final section, distinguished commentators reflect on different aspects of the scholarly agenda put forth in this volume, including what this body of work suggests about the state of political psychology's contributions to our understanding of these issues.

Thus this volume aims to provide a multifaceted, interdisciplinary look at the political psychology of democratic citizenship. The interdisciplinary bent of contemporary work in political psychology may uniquely equip it to create a more nuanced understanding of citizenship issues and of competing democratic theories.

Age Barriers to Work in Commonwealth Laws: America at War, Samuel Van Valkenburg , ,. A People of One Book: The Bible and the Victorians, Timothy Larsen , , , Although the Victorians were awash in texts, the Bible was such a pervasive and dominant presence that they may fittingly be thought of as 'a people of one book'. They habitually read the Bible, quoted it, adopted its phraseology as their own, thought in its categories, and viewed their own lives and experiences through a scriptural lens.

This astonishingly deep, relentless, and resonant engagement with the Bible was true across the religious spectrum from Catholics to Unitarians and beyond. The scripture-saturated culture of nineteenth-century England is displayed by Timothy Larsen in a series of lively case studies of representative figures ranging from the Quaker prison reformer Elizabeth Fry to the liberal Anglican pioneer of nursing Florence Nightingale to the Baptist preacher C. Spurgeon to the Jewish author Grace Aguilar.

Even the agnostic man of science T. Huxley and the atheist leaders Charles Bradlaugh and Annie Besant were thoroughly and profoundly preoccupied with the Bible. Serving as a tour of the diversity and variety of nineteenth-century views, Larsen's study presents the distinctive beliefs and practices of all the major Victorian religious and sceptical traditions from Anglo- Catholics to the Salvation Army to Spiritualism, while simultaneously drawing out their common, shared culture as a people of one book.

Whitehouse , , , Historical Calendar , , ,. Price Waterhouse, Edgar Jones , , , The History of King Lear: The Quarto, William Shakespeare , , , King Lear, widely considered Shakespeare's most deeply moving, passionately expressed, and intellectually ambitious play, has almost always been edited from the revised version printed in the First Folio of , with additions from the quarto of Acting on recent discoveries, this volume presents the first full, scholarly edition to be based firmly on the quarto, now recognized as the base text from which all others derive.

A thorough, attractively written introduction suggests how the work grew slowly in Shakespeare's imagination, fed by years of reading, thinking, and experience as a practical dramatist. Analysis of the great range of literary and other sources from which he shaped the tragedy, and of its critical and theatrical history, indicates that the play felt as shocking and original to early audiences as it does now. Its challenges have often been evaded, notably in Nahum Tate's notorious adaptation. During the twentieth century, however, deeper understanding of the conventions of Shakespeare's theatre restored confidence in the theatrical viability of his original text, while the play has also generated a remarkable range of offshoots in film, television, the visual arts, music, and literature.

The commentary to this edition offers detailed help in understanding the language and dramaturgy in relation to the theatres in which King Lear was first performed. Additional sections reprint the early ballad, ignored by all modern editors, which was among its earliest derivatives, and provide additional guides to understanding and appreciating one of the greatest masterworks of Western civilization.
