Book Synopsis Sex Fiends, Perverts, and Pedophiles by : Chrysanthi S. Leon
Download or read book Sex Fiends, Perverts, and Pedophiles written by Chrysanthi S. Leon and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2011-08-22 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From sex fiend laws to Jessica's Law, every state regularly passes popular tough-on-crime legislation, often written after highly-publicized cases have made the gruesome rounds through the media. Chrysanthi Leon shows that, while the singular notion of the sexual bogeyman has been used to justify these harsh policies, not all sex offenders are the same and such 'one size fits all' policies are well-intentioned but badly implemented. Leon argues for much-needed changes to the criminal justice system, ultimately showing that when policies intended for the worst offenders take over, all of us suffer.
Download or read book TimeJack written by Keith Spratley and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001-05-31 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered what it would be like to able to control time? Not by using a time machine… The actual manipulation of temporal flow by sheer mind power… Brian Fox knows all about this topic. He is a timejockey, one of a small number of people blessed, or maybe cursed, with this ability. Cursed because his children and then his wife are hijacked in time, timejacked, by terrifying individuals who wish Fox to use his temporal capabilities to perform a little task for them—a task that could possibly mean the end of the Universe! Blessed because only by the use of these capabilities can he save the ones he loves and, incidentally, the Universe. The TimeJack storyline spans from the twentieth to the twenty-seventh century and, if not quite across the Galaxy, at least along most of our spiral arm. Along the way, various strange and interesting characters are encountered, from the amazingly cute and pixiesque M’phtl to the appalling Lardhead, by way of Jenny Carter, down to earth English rose and nanny to the Fox household. The action includes hand to hand combat, use of puns, sword fights, gun fights and even a space battle.

The one with no heavy lifting and no one tries to kill her. Well, one out of two's not bad... Punching well above their weight, Max and Markham set out to bring down a sinister organisation founded in the future - with a suspicious focus on the past.

But non-stop leaping around the timeline - from witnessing Magna Carta to disturbing a certain young man with a penchant for gunpowder - is beginning to take its toll. Is Max going mad?

Book Synopsis Walter Ralegh's History of the World and the Historical Culture of the Late Renaissance by : Nicholas Popper
Download or read book Walter Ralegh's History of the World and the Historical Culture of the Late Renaissance written by Nicholas Popper and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2012-11-02 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imprisoned in the Tower of London after the death of Queen Elizabeth in 1603, Sir Walter Ralegh spent seven years producing his massive History of the World. Created with the aid of a library of more than five hundred books that he was allowed to keep in his quarters, this incredible work of English vernacular would become a best seller, with nearly twenty editions, abridgments, and continuations issued in the years that followed. Nicholas Popper uses Ralegh’s History as a touchstone in this lively exploration of the culture of history writing and historical thinking in the late Renaissance. From Popper we learn why early modern Europeans ascribed heightened value to the study of the past and how scholars and statesmen began to see historical expertise as not just a foundation for political practice and theory, but as a means of advancing their power in the courts and councils of contemporary Europe. The rise of historical scholarship during this period encouraged the circulation of its methods to other disciplines, transforming Europe’s intellectual—and political—regimes. More than a mere study of Ralegh’s History of the World, Popper’s book reveals how the methods that historians devised to illuminate the past structured the dynamics of early modernity in Europe and England.
Book Synopsis Justice Perverted by : Derek J. Sherwood
Download or read book Justice Perverted written by Derek J. Sherwood and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1975, Dr. Richard Charles Haefner had it all--a Ph.D. from Penn State University, a prestigious job offer with UCLA and a thriving family business. Then it all came crashing down. Two boys who worked for Haefner accused him of sexual molestation, but allegations of police brutality, prosecutorial misconduct, bribery and corruption soon overshadowed what seemed like an "open-and-shut-case," ultimately resulting in the Pennsylvania Supreme Court's amending state law. Drawing on interviews and recently discovered documents, the author revisits the case and explores a number of open questions--including whether Haefner was set up by police as he claimed.

Book excerpt: Why we are so fascinated with sex and sexuality—from the preeminent philosopher of the 20th century.

Book Synopsis Five Hundred Years of LGBTQIA+ History in Western Nicaragua by : Victoria González-Rivera
Download or read book Five Hundred Years of LGBTQIA+ History in Western Nicaragua written by Victoria González-Rivera and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2024-10-08 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking book reframes five hundred years of western Nicaraguan history by giving gender and sexuality the attention they deserve. Victoria González-Rivera decenters nationalist narratives of triumphant mestizaje and argues that western Nicaragua’s LGBTQIA+ history is a profoundly Indigenous one. In this expansive history, González-Rivera documents connections between Indigeneity, local commerce, and femininity (cis and trans), demonstrating the long history of LGBTQIA+ Nicaraguans. She sheds light on historical events, such as Andres Caballero’s 1536 burning at the stake for sodomy. González-Rivera discusses how elite efforts after independence to “modernize” open-air markets led to increased surveillance of LGBTQIA+ working-class individuals. She also examines the 1960s and the Somoza dictatorship, when another wave of persecution emerged, targeting working-class gay men and trans women, leading to a more stringent anti-sodomy law. The centuries prior to the post-1990 political movement for greater LGBTQIA+ rights demonstrate that, far from being marginal, LGBTQIA+ Nicaraguans have been active in every area of society for hundreds of years.
Download or read book Dear Pervert written by Jalena Dawn and published by . This book was released on 2019-02-12 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Jalena's riveting memoir, Dear Pervert, she boldly shares her story of enduring the undeniable and unavoidable pain of being victimized by someone she trusted most. She bravely speaks directly to the man who sexually abused her throughout her childhood, spilling all of his dirty little secrets as she recalls the horrific things he did to her and reflects on how she has progressively coped - and also the soul-crushing embarrassing times she just couldn't cope - with the trauma. Jalena also reflects on how she utilized this experience to recover and reclaim herself mentally, emotionally, physically and most of all, spiritually, as she describes the ways this has shaped her into the wife, adoptive mother and healthful lifestyle coach she is today, and how her tumultuous relationship with God ultimately came to grips.More than calling her abuser out on his perverted ways, Jalena speaks to her fellow sisters - women and girls everywhere - because 1 in 3 can relate in some way and need to know they are not alone and their voices do matter! They CAN stop being a victim to their pain and start healing from their trauma. Her vulnerability shines through on each page as her message offers hope to all.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A North America settled by the Spanish, rather than the English. The culture, society, and law… all dictated by the Catholic church. And only one person knows it should never have been that way. Isabella Jaramillo is accustomed to getting what she wants. Living a comfortable life as the daughter of the world’s sole time travel magnate, Isabella has never suffered the irritation of being told no. Until now. In a bitter act of revenge, Isabella’s planned trip to the 20th century is sabotaged, propelling her into Saxon-era Britain. Captured, brutalized, and facing worse than death, reality crashes down on her, and Isabella Jaramillo—the social queen of Miami—finds herself a slave. Taken as property, Isabella makes some surprising allies and discovers the truth behind her father’s rise to power and the terrible price the entire world paid for it. Can Isabella break free and find a way home, not only to save herself, but to restore history to its rightful direction?
Book Synopsis Hoax: A History of Deception by : Ian Tattersall
Download or read book Hoax: A History of Deception written by Ian Tattersall and published by Black Dog & Leventhal. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An entertaining collection of the most audacious and underhanded deceptions in the history of mankind, from sacred relics to financial schemes to fake art, music, and identities. World history is littered with tall tales and those who have fallen for them. Ian Tattersall, a curator emeritus at the American Museum of Natural History, has teamed up with Peter Névraumont to tell this anti-history of the world, in which Michelangelo fakes a masterpiece; Arctic explorers seek an entrance into a hollow Earth; a Shakespeare tragedy is "rediscovered"; a financial scheme inspires Charles Ponzi; a spirit photographer snaps Abraham Lincoln's ghost; people can survive ingesting only air and sunshine; Edgar Allen Poe is the forefather of fake news; and the first human was not only British but played cricket. Told chronologically, HOAX begins with the first documented announcement of the end of the world in 2800 BC and winds its way through controversial tales such as the Loch Ness Monster and the Shroud of Turin, past proven fakes such as the Thomas Jefferson's ancient wine and the Davenport Tablets built by a lost race, and explores bald-faced lies in the worlds of art, science, literature, journalism, and finance.

Book Synopsis How to Become an American by : Daniel Wolff
Download or read book How to Become an American written by Daniel Wolff and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2022-12-13 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An odyssey from pre–Civil War Charleston to post–World War II Minneapolis through Jewish immigrants' eyes The histories of US immigrants do not always begin and end in Ellis Island and northeastern cities. Many arrived earlier and some migrated south and west, fanning out into their vast new country. They sought a renewed life, fresh prospects, and a safe harbor, despite a nation that was not always welcoming and not always tolerant. How to Become an American begins with an abandoned diary—and from there author Daniel Wolff examines the sweeping history of immigration into the United States through the experiences of one unnamed, seemingly unremarkable Jewish family, and, in the process, makes their lives remarkable. It is a deeply human odyssey that journeys from pre–Civil War Charleston, South Carolina, to post–World War II Minneapolis, Minnesota. In some ways, the family's journey parallels that of the nation, as it struggled to define itself through the Industrial Age. A persistent strain of loneliness permeates this story, and Wolff holds up this theme for contemplation. In a country that prides itself on being "a nation of immigrants," where "all men are created equal," why do we end up feeling alone in the land we love?
Book Synopsis The Bible Predicts the Mandela Effect by : Steve Adams
Download or read book The Bible Predicts the Mandela Effect written by Steve Adams and published by Magus Books. This book was released on with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you heard of Dead Humanity theory? It says that humanity died on 21 December, 2012, exactly as predicted by the Mayans. This might come as a big surprise to you given that you no doubt believe you are very much alive. But are you? Haven't you noticed that things have been getting seriously weird in the last few years? Things don't seem to be, er, as real as they used to be. We seem to be in some fantasy world, getting more bizarre by the second. People are behaving extremely oddly. Have we all actually become ghosts and just didn't realize we actually died? Dead Humanity theory says that 21 December, 2012 was actually when we were uploaded overnight into a technological Singularity and became part of an amazing simulation, a true Matrix. Our bodies became avatars, so realistic we couldn't tell the difference (or we were programmed not to see any difference). We were given a new "reality principle" which was to accept the simulation as reality and to believe we had always been in this reality, when in fact we only entered it a few years ago. Our memories were adjusted by the Readjustment Bureau to make everything seem "normal". In the years leading up to the Death of Humanity, many people were subjected to various test experiments to prove the concept. They had their consciousness uploaded to the Singularity, then back again. Since they experienced different things in the Simulation, they ended up with conflicting memories. This all became known as the Mandela effect. Some people in the simulation realized that things had changed dramatically and they came up with the Dead Internet theory, which said that the Internet wasn't the same as it used to be. It had actually died and been replaced by an Internet controlled by AI, algorithms and bots. Most content on the Internet was bot-generated. Most social media updates were by bots. We were responding to a bot-created world that had less and less need for humans. These people hadn't got quite the right theory. It wasn't the Internet that had died, it was humanity! However, these people had powerfully intuited that something phenomenally strange was going on. They just hadn't realized how strange. As Sir Arthur Eddington said, "Not only is the universe stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we can imagine." When in doubt, consult the Bible. It has all the answers, God's answers. What people have failed to realize is that the Bible itself predicts the Mandela effect.
