Crime, Protest, Community, and Police in Nineteenth-Century Britain

Crime, Protest, Community, and Police in Nineteenth-Century Britain

David Jones

Routledge
2017
nidottu
This study, first published in 1982, is concerned with the nature of crime in nineteenth-century Britain, and explores the response of the community and the police authorities. Each chapter is linked by common themes and questions, and the topics described in detail range from popular forms of rural crime and protest, through crime in industrial and urban communities, to a study of the vagrant. The author pays special attention to the relationship between illegal activities and protest, and emphasizes the context and complexity of official crime rates and of many forms of criminal behaviour. This title will be of interest to students of history and criminology.

"She was like the dawn, insubstantial and somehow transient, as though she would fade from reality at any moment." Every day the villagers watch as Death, a spectral suit of black armour mounted upon a horse, rides through the valley beneath their mountain top home. After a lifetime living on the edge of Death's domain, his close proximity is neither terrible or threatening, rather he has become a simple fact of life and a familiar neighbour. Nothing seems to change until one night a young boy, alone in the meadows beneath a summer moon, watches a mysterious figure in white approaching the village through the tall grass. That fateful night culminates in a love story that crosses the borders between the village and the valley, childhood and adulthood, and even life and death. Death's Door is a novella from the author best selling "Love and Space Dust" and "Could You Ever Live Without?"

This is a Christian book with a difference. True Christianity is under attack and the Holy Bible has been labelled a 'hate document'. Christian freedoms of speech and prayer are constantly being denied. Christian leaders have reacted by adapting what they preach to what people want to hear rather than what the Bible, the Word of God, actually says. As a result congregations are shrinking and churches are closing. Part 1 of this book sets out why the Bible should be believed and what it actually teaches. Then in Part 2 we read how and why things started to go wrong in the past, right back to the early Church Fathers. Was it Roman Catholicism with the Crusades and the Inquisition or was it Calvinism with it's absurd doctrine and cruelty? Then we move to the present day and examine what is filling the vacuum now that so many people have turned their backs on our Christian roots. Is it Humanism or is it to be Critical Theory (Woke ideology) with the destruction of all truth? Or will it be Islam?

The Aha! Moment

The Aha! Moment

David Jones

Johns Hopkins University Press
2012
sidottu
This book is about having ideas and-a much longer haul-making them work. David Jones, best known for his Daedalus column, tells many stories about creators and their creations, including his own fantastical-seeming contributions to mainstream science-such as unrideable bicycles and chemical gardens in space. His theory of creativity endows each of us with a Random-Ideas Generator, a Censor, and an Observer-Reasoner. Jones applies the theory to a wide range of weird scientific experiments that he has conducted for serious scientific papers, for challenging printed expositions, and for presentations to a TV audience. He even suggests new ones, not yet tried! Creativity is as essential to science as curiosity, physical intuition, and shrewd deduction from well-planned experiments. But, says Jones, ingenuity is very uncertain-even for the greatest inventors, about 80 percent of ideas fail. Jokiness can help, and so can lots of random data. Jones has copious clever advice that will help you have that madly brilliant private thought in the first place-and will encourage you to take it further. Neither dense nor demanding, The Aha! Moment is engrossing, edifying, and scientifically serious; yet it is lightly written, has many jokes, and asks lots of silly questions. As Jones shows, it can often pay to take an absurd idea seriously.
