Most essays show gratitude for the wonders of modern science, with a focus on medical discoveries in infectious disease, vaccinology, and microbiology that have changed the course of humanity. Along the way, Nick also shares his appreciation for people, places, and events that have personally touched him in his own journey as a physician, a father, and a sports fan. He chose the timing of each essay to correspond to an important event in history, and uses this association to recount the significance of each achievement. This book showcases Nick's favorite stories, each showing the positive side of a world often dominated by negativity, mistrust, and skepticism.
Book Synopsis Classics of International Relations by : Henrik Bliddal
Download or read book Classics of International Relations written by Henrik Bliddal and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-24 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classics of International Relations introduces, contextualises and assesses 24 of the most important works on international relations of the last 100 years. Providing an indispensable guide for all students of IR theory, from advanced undergraduates to academic specialists, it asks why are these works considered classics? Is their status deserved? Will it endure? It takes as its starting point Norman Angell’s best-selling The Great Illusion (1909) and concludes with Daniel Deudney’s award winning Bounding Power (2006). The volume does not ignore established classics such as Morgenthau’s Politics Among Nations and Waltz’s Theory of International Politics, but seeks to expand the ‘IR canon’ beyond its core realist and liberal texts. It thus considers emerging classics such as Linklater’s critical sociology of moral boundaries, Men and Citizens in the Theory of International Relations, and Enloe’s pioneering gender analysis, Bananas, Beaches and Bases. It also innovatively considers certain ‘alternative format’ classics such as Kubrick’s satire on the nuclear arms race, Dr Strangelove, and Errol Morris’s powerful documentary on war and US foreign policy, The Fog of War. With an international cast of contributors, many of them leading authorities on their subject, Classics of International Relations will become a standard reference for all those wishing to make sense of a rapidly developing and diversifying field. Classics of International Relations is designed to become a standard reference text for advanced undergraduates, post-graduates and lecturers in the field of IR.
Book Synopsis Anglo-Saxon Poetry by : Lewis E. Nicholson
Download or read book Anglo-Saxon Poetry written by Lewis E. Nicholson and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume of previously unpublished essays on Anglo-Saxon poetry has been created in honor of John C. McGalliard on the occasion of his retirement from the University of Iowa after a distinguished career as a scholar-teacher of medieval literatures. As a critical anthology designed to respond to all of the major and most of the minor poems in the Anglo-Saxon canon, this collection will prove valuable to every class in Anglo-Saxon, whether introductory or advanced. The twenty-five essays take up individual problems concerned with the interpretation of specific poems. In offering their solutions to these problems the contributors evince their great love of poetry and their impressive knowledge of Anglo-Saxon scholarship. The contributors, who include Robert P. Greed, Charles Donahue, Norman E. Eliason, John Gardner, Margaret Goldsmith, Stanley Greenfield, Alvin A. Lee, Burton Raffle, Fred C. Robinson, Alain Renoir, and Robert Stevick, are prominent among the world-wide community of Anglo-Saxonists, and represent the entire range of critical approaches to Old English Literature. Their lively willingness to accept specific titular assignments is a tribute to the man who inspired this project. Among them are practicing poets, novelists, and translators - a reflection of the genuine humanism and erudition of Professor McGalliard. It is the editors' hope that the ongoing usefulness of this book whose attractive critical unity springs from the self-limited nature of the Anglo-Saxon poetic corpus, will constitute an added honorific dimension. The editors are both former students of John C. McGalliard. Lewis E, Nicholson is Associate Professor of English at the University of Notre Dame. He has published essays on Anglo-Saxon poetry and is editor of An Anthology of Beowulf Criticism. Delores Warwick Frese is Assistant Professor of English at the University of Notre Dame. In addition to scholarly articles she has published two novels as well as poems and short stories.
Book Synopsis The Aesthetic Appreciation of Nature by : Malcolm Budd
Download or read book The Aesthetic Appreciation of Nature written by Malcolm Budd and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 2005-11-03 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aesthetics of nature has over the last few decades become an intense focus of philosophical reflection, as it has been ever more widely recognised that it is not a mere appendage to the aesthetics of art. Everyone delights in the beauty of flowers, and some are thrilled by the immensity of mountains or of the night sky. But what is involved in serious aesthetic appreciation of the natural world? Malcolm Budd presents four interlinked studies in the aesthetics of nature, approaching the subject from a variety of angles. As well as developing Budd's own original ideas, the book provides a comprehensive treatment of Kant's classic aesthetics of nature, and an encyclopaedic critical survey of recent literature on the subject.
