Book Synopsis Female Infanticide in India by : Rashmi Dube Bhatnagar
Download or read book Female Infanticide in India written by Rashmi Dube Bhatnagar and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Female Infanticide in India is a theoretical and discursive intervention in the field of postcolonial feminist theory. It focuses on the devaluation of women through an examination of the practice of female infanticide in colonial India and the reemergence of this practice in the form of femicide (selective killing of female fetuses) in postcolonial India. The authors argue that femicide is seen as part of the continuum of violence on, and devaluation of, the postcolonial girl-child and woman. In order to fully understand the material and discursive practices through which the limited and localized crime of female infanticide in colonial India became a generalized practice of femicide in postcolonial India, the authors closely examine the progressivist British-colonial history of the discovery, reform, and eradication of the practice of female infanticide. Contemporary tactics of resistance are offered in the closing chapters.
Book Synopsis The Raging Agnostics: Volume One by : Peter Richter
Download or read book The Raging Agnostics: Volume One written by Peter Richter and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2021-05-28 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A series of natural disasters conceal what might be terrorist attacks. Enter Edward Talbot, the latest member of a generation of an anonymous and singular family line of what might be deemed “Messiahs-in-waiting” or “God’s warriors”. On loan from the secret government organisation who resource his family line (and study them with perhaps an eye to control them), Edward helps investigate the reasons behind the disasters. He soon discovers strange truths that threaten to fully negate the prospect of him ever being Messiah. Amongst the mysteries he encounters is what appears to be an alien incursion, a sub-culture of militant vampires and an insidious government experiment involving neurological dimmer switches. Additionally, the demonic entities he regularly encounters start to look like they may have nothing to do with religion and everything to do with quantum physics. And all of it begins to look disturbingly interconnected. Luckily for Edward, he’s been the recipient of an in-depth scientific education that has made him agnostic – meaning he no longer accepts anything on faith but instead thrives on questioning everything and will not stop until he has all the answers – much to the chagrin (and frequent alarm) of those who are most happy to blindly follow him.

Book Synopsis Great Power Security Cooperation by : David W. Kearn
Download or read book Great Power Security Cooperation written by David W. Kearn and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2014-12-18 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains the conditions under which great powers are likely to cooperate to improve their security by engaging in qualitative arms control. In agreeing to limit or proscribe certain classes of weapons, states will constrain their military capabilities and therefore decrease the threat they pose to potential adversaries. Focusing on the expected military impact of technological change and the capacity of states to confidently monitor the activities of its negotiating partners, it may be possible to forge lasting agreements that improves the security of the participating states. However, at other times, the nature technological change may force states to engage in competitive behavior, precluding cooperation and increasing the probability of conflict. Examining a diverse set of cases, including the Washington Naval Conference, The World Disarmament Conference at Geneva, the Baruch Plan for the International Control of Atomic Energy, and the SALT I Accords (including the ABM Treaty), this volume presents a persuasive, comprehensive and interesting contribution to the literature on arms racing and arms control, and should be of interest to students of international relations theory and security studies. By presenting a theoretical-informed model that explicitly links the security strategies of states to their choices about development and deployment of new weapons and, consequently, their willingness to engage in arms control cooperation, this book provides an important refinement upon existing theoretical and historical approaches.

Book Synopsis The Limits of Empire: European Imperial Formations in Early Modern World History by : William Reger
Download or read book The Limits of Empire: European Imperial Formations in Early Modern World History written by William Reger and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, published in honor of historian Geoffrey Parker, explores the working of European empires in a global perspective, focusing on one of the most important themes of Parker’s work: the limits of empire, which is to say, the centrifugal forces - sacral, dynastic, military, diplomatic, geographical, informational - that plagued imperial formations in the early modern period (1500-1800). During this time of wrenching technological, demographic, climatic, and economic change, empires had to struggle with new religious movements, incipient nationalisms, new sea routes, new military technologies, and an evolving state system with complex new rules of diplomacy. Engaging with a host of current debates, the chapters in this book break away from conventional historical conceptions of empire as an essentially western phenomenon with clear demarcation lines between the colonizer and the colonized. These are replaced here by much more fluid and subtle conceptions that highlight complex interplays between coalitions of rulers and ruled. In so doing, the volume builds upon recent work that increasingly suggests that empires simply could not exist without the consent of their imperial subjects, or at least significant groups of them. This was as true for the British Raj as it was for imperial China or Russia. Whilst the thirteen chapters in this book focus on a number of geographic regions and adopt different approaches, each shares a focus on, and interest in, the working of empires and the ways that imperial formations dealt with - or failed to deal with - the challenges that beset them. Taken together, they reflect a new phase in the evolving historiography of empire. They also reflect the scholarly contributions of the dedicatee, Geoffrey Parker, whose life and work are discussed in the introductory chapters and, we’re proud to say, in a delightful chapter by Parker himself, an autobiographical reflection that closes the book.
Book Synopsis The Heirs of Fate by : Susan Wilson Younkins
Download or read book The Heirs of Fate written by Susan Wilson Younkins and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2006-06-01 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Legends of King Arthur--what if Mallory got it wrong? What if the ancient script used by Troyes contained translation errors? What if the monks in the middle ages forgot to transpose the nouns and adjectives in the ancient Latin texts and what should have read 'rotunda on the plateau' instead came out as the nonsensical 'round table.' The Heirs of Fate unscrambles the puzzle and turns the Arthurian legends into a logical and more credible novel. With unforgettable characters and action-packed drama, Ms. Younkins has woven a novel that will be hard to put down. Set in the 5th and 6th Centuries C.E., the novel starts with Merlin's rise to fame, travels through Arthur's stellar achievements, and ends with the collapse of the Romano-Briton Empire.

Keegan leads you into the dark world of the supernatural—where those who have died still live! Tom Gardner, anguished and guilt-ridden by the death of his young wife, Elise, leaves his life in Jamestown to escape the insanity he barely survived after her death. At Remington House, Tom finds he is tormented not only by his dead wife's spirit, but also by other spirits who have remained in this New England coastal home. The moment he begins his journey to his new home, the nightmare begins. The previous owners, Helen and Gabriel Lindeman, dead for many years, still reside in Remington House. And Tom is not a welcome guest. The Lindemans will horrify you as you realize their frightening powers over the entire household. Elise's ghost will stop at nothing to bring about the demise of her husband and all that is dear to him. Possession of those around her, the ability to appear as a human, her cunning newfound strength and an alliance with Benjamin, a dark and formidable spirit, make her far more dangerous. With lights dimmed, but never turned off, you will read into the night, turning page after page. You never know who is lurking at the end of the next hall. Is that a shadow or . . . a ghost? We will begin when we end. That is the rule of eternity. The end. The beginning. The finalization of life, the birth of the haunt. —so begins the story of Remington House.

Book Synopsis Reclaiming Power in Congregational and Community Ministry by : Fritz Ritsch
Download or read book Reclaiming Power in Congregational and Community Ministry written by Fritz Ritsch and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-11-14 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Partisan religious interests have highjacked faith in America for political power, in the process dividing our nation and giving religion a bad name. Faith groups who want to build unity, in contrast, feel powerless to attain their goals. Congregations who can adapt to a more democratic approach to ministry, in which power is shared by both staff and congregants, can dramatically strengthen their congregations and serve their neighbors more effectively. Shared power strengthens individuals, congregations, and community efforts, enabling us to work with others, build community, and recognize and overcome negative power dynamics so that people can work together to build healthier congregations and communities. It also burnishes religion's tarnished image by demonstrating faithful, cooperative, and positive civic engagement for the community's good. This book also addresses the inevitable power dynamics in any congregation, allowing leaders to recognize unhealthy dynamics, foster healthy ones, and discover and cultivate the hidden power in each parishioner, so that individually they can live more fully into God's intention for them, and together the congregation can become the outpost of God's reign that it is meant to be.
Download or read book Incarnate written by Josh Stolberg and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-07-25 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An ambitious and sharp-witted clinical psychiatrist turns detective when one of her patients comes under investigation for a series of brutal murders—is she a psychopath or a victim herself? Brilliant psychiatric resident Dr. Kim Patterson has one major flaw: she is too committed to her patients. Her willingness to break the rules and use unconventional methods to help her patients heal has already gotten her thrown out of several hospitals. And when Scarlett Hascall is brought into the psychiatric ward, Kim can’t resist getting involved, even if it means breaking protocol—because Kim can see what the other doctors cannot. Scarlett is suffering from a rare condition: Dissociative Identity Disorder, otherwise known as Multiple Personalities. But even Kim is at a loss when she realizes that some of Scarlett’s alternate identities are claiming to be people who have gone missing from their town. And when Scarlett’s alter identity “Izzi” knows way too much about the whereabouts of the missing Isabel Wilcox, the police begin to suspect that Scarlett may have been involved with Isabel’s disappearance. Only Kim defends Scarlett, certain of the girl’s innocence. But her new theory is a radical one, one she can hardly believe herself: What if Kim is channeling the troubled souls of these victims? With the help of local police officer Zack Trainor, Kim digs further into Isabel’s case, trying to find proof that Scarlett wasn’t involved. The more they discover, the more it becomes apparent that something strange and frightening is going on with Scarlett. Is it possible she is truly harboring lost souls? Or is Scarlett playing a twisted game with her doctors and the police?
