From 1957 to 1961 Averin and Geoffrey Hinton were attached to the British Embassy in Bangkok. Geoffrey was officially a diplomat with the rank of 1st Secretary, but this was cover for his role as MI6 intelligence officer, though the letters give no hint of what he was really up to.Throughout the posting, Averin wrote round-robin letters to the family back in England, and most of these letters have survived. They show Averin throwing herself with gusto into the role of diplomat's wife, running a household with six or seven servants and their families, entertaining dignitaries, teaching English, mixing with royalty, all amidst an endless whirl of cocktail and dinner parties.
Book Synopsis Averin's Letters from Bangkok 1957-1961 by : Michael Richard Hinton
Download or read book Averin's Letters from Bangkok 1957-1961 written by Michael Richard Hinton and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-05-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1957 to 1961 Averin and Geoffrey Hinton were attached to the British Embassy in Bangkok. Geoffrey was officially a diplomat with the rank of 1st Secretary, but this was cover for his real role as an intelligence officer working for MI6. Throughout the posting, Averin wrote round-robin letters to the family back in England, and most of these letters have survived. Averin had herself worked for SIS, the Secret Intelligence Service, during the Seoncd World War. Like Geoffrey, she was bound by the Official Secrets Act and so, frustratingly, there is no hint at all in any of the letters as to Geoffrey's real role. The letters give a vivid and candid picture of life in Thailand in the 1950s and early 1960s as seen through the eyes of a middle-class British woman: the politics, the frequent coups d'état, summary executions, cholera epidemics, religion, etiquette, manners, food, dress, education, and much more. And all the while Averin threw herself with gusto into the role of diplomat's wife, running a household with six or seven servants and their families, entertaining dignitaries, mixing with royalty, holidaying by the sea, all amidst an endless whirl of cocktail and dinner parties.

Book Synopsis The Nature and Challenges of Indigenous Psychologies by : Carl Martin Allwood
Download or read book The Nature and Challenges of Indigenous Psychologies written by Carl Martin Allwood and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-23 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The indigenous psychologies (IPs) stress the importance of research being grounded in the conditions and culture of the researcher's own society due to the dominance of Western culture in mainstream psychology. The nature and challenges of the IPs are discussed from the perspectives of science studies and anthropology of knowledge (the study of human understanding in its social context). The Element describes general social conditions for the development of science and the IPs globally, and their development and form in some specific countries. Next, some more specific issues relating to the IPs are discussed. These issues include the nature of the IPs, scientific standards, type of culture concept favored, views on the philosophy of science, understanding of mainstream psychology, generalization of findings, and the IPs' isolation and independence. Finally, conclusions are drawn, for example with respect to the future of the IPs.

Book Synopsis Fundamentals of Nanotechnology by : Gabor L. Hornyak
Download or read book Fundamentals of Nanotechnology written by Gabor L. Hornyak and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-12-14 with total page 812 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WINNER 2009 CHOICE AWARD OUTSTANDING ACADEMIC TITLE! Nanotechnology is no longer a subdiscipline of chemistry, engineering, or any other field. It represents the convergence of many fields, and therefore demands a new paradigm for teaching. This textbook is for the next generation of nanotechnologists. It surveys the field’s broad landscape, exploring the physical basics such as nanorheology, nanofluidics, and nanomechanics as well as industrial concerns such as manufacturing, reliability, and safety. The authors then explore the vast range of nanomaterials and systematically outline devices and applications in various industrial sectors. This color text is an ideal companion to Introduction to Nanoscience by the same group of esteemed authors. Both titles are also available as the single volume Introduction to Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Qualifying instructors who purchase either of these volumes (or the combined set) are given online access to a wealth of instructional materials. These include detailed lecture notes, review summaries, slides, exercises, and more. The authors provide enough material for both one- and two-semester courses.

Book excerpt: Dans un passé assez récent, un intérêt sans précédent s'est développé concernant les ressources globales. Nous nous rendons maintenant compte que les ressources biologiques sont loin d'être illimitées et pendant les dernières décennies du 20ème siècle, des efforts ont débuté pour contrôler nos usages de l'environnement et qui agissent les uns avec les autres dans les écosystèmes dont nous dépendons finalement. Le projet "Mers au millénaire": Une Evatuation Environmentale sur la zone côtière couvre le secteur où vit plus d'un quart de l'humanité, et jusque au bas du plateau continental. Ces trois livres se concentrent sur la biosphère où les interactions de l'homme avec les mers et leurs systèmes biologiques et physiques sont le plus sensibles. 135 chapitres écrits par les experts internationaux et les scientifiques travaillant dans ce domaine offrent un sommaire unique des mers et des océans du monde. À la fin du millénaire les auteurs à travers le monde ont examiné l'état de nos habitats marins et côtiers. Pour la première fois, ils ont uni leurs efforts de par le monde pour s'assurer que ces habitats restent dans un état de fonctionnement durable et stable; l'information a été documentée et assemblée dans une source bibliographique unique. "Mers au millénaire" fournit aux scientifiques dans le monde entier une occasion unique pour s'enrichir de toutes ces expériences. Les trois volumes de "Mers au millénaire" couvrent des chapîtres d'importance globale et régionale comme : description biologique des eaux côtières et du plateau continental; développement et utilisation de la zone côtière; effets des dragages et autres techniques d'accrétion sédimentaire; effet dans le temps des déversement de polluants;de pêche; méthodes et techniques de gestion utilisées pour gérer en continu les écosystèmes. Plus de 800 figures comprenant des cartes, les graphiques, les dessins au trait et les photograph.
