Trieste Publishing has a massive catalogue of classic book titles. Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago. Books from that period are often spoiled by imperfections that did not exist in the original. Imperfections could be in the form of blurred text, photographs, or missing pages. It is highly unlikely that this would occur with one of our books. Our extensive quality control ensures that the readers of Trieste Publishing's books will be delighted with their purchase. Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers. Generally, Trieste books are purchased singly - on demand, however they may also be purchased in bulk. Readers interested in bulk purchases are invited to contact us directly to enquire about our tailored bulk rates.
Work-based learning, in which professional work experience is closely integrated with professional study, now forms an important part of many courses in tertiary institutions. A Model for Work-Based Learning offers a plan designed to enhance the professional experience through facilitated mentoring and reflective learning, and is based on an internship that has proven highly successful over the last ten years at the University of Canberra. This strategy, which features collaborative teaching and learning, is applicable to other professional courses within tertiary environments. Part 1 describes the research base for all aspects of the model and shows how a program based on the theoretical model can be implemented, bringing together facilitated mentoring and theory. Part 2 contains a range of activities that can be used by educators during all aspects of the work experience, from preparing students and mentors through assisting the student's move into the professional workforce. The conclusion explores the crucial success factors of the work-based learning model. This volume is an invaluable guide to educators and mentors in the workplace.
This is a sample book, 4 chapters. It has now been superseded by Tax Man and Myth of England, The River of Gold and Gifts from the Gods; it also includes a chapter on the Mau-Mau revolt which appears nowhere else, for the moment. Only buy it if you want to read about the Mau-Mau, can't be bothered to read the much improved other books, or want to have a classic on your coffe table. The title and cover I will use to describe the psychological aspects of my theory of taxation, which is why I keep this book available, so that no-one steals my idea. The crescent of circumcision is very real, but has nothing to do with religion, and only incidentally to do with taxation. It is really a piece of social engineering which helps dense populations cope with each other.Real history is about banal subjects: the preference for drinking beer over wine or water; the selection of a type of sail to escape the narrow channel of a wind-swept estuary; the adoption of a 10% tax, rather than a 1% or a 50% tax; and above all the circumcision of young, muscular men. Today's confrontation between circumcised Americans and circumcised Muslims on the Crescent that links San Diego to Bali is no accident, but the inevitable outcome or man's horrific battle with his hormones, and his destiny to dominate the globe.Although popularly thought to be a religious or medical process, circumcision is clearly a geographic phenomenon that follows an arc from Northern Mexico to northern Australia, an arc formed by recent vulcanology. Along this arc lies a heavy concentration of humanity, indeed most of the world's densest populations. Thus, although proponents of circumcision claim social and medical benefits, and critics claim physical and psychological damage, the facts seem to show that demographic success is congruent with circumcision.None of which explains how it could have started as a social process along this arc, nor why it was successful. Circumcision is only one form of social control which allows the human adaptation of extreme gregariousness to function, and is merely a subset of behaviour which can be called taxation. Taxation is a rare, lop-sided transaction in which one party demands and receives a benefit, while the other contributes it. Curiously, the threat of violence is assumed, but rarely invoked. Modern man's defining characteristic is indeed his pacifism, his acquiescence. In comparison, every other wild animal and even man's primitive ancestors would fight to the death rather than pay taxes. And yet, the evidence throughout millennia and throughout the history of the great Empires is that this acquiescence is a strategy that succeeds in demographic terms.This combination of taxation and acquiescence is responsible for the great growth in human population, from the typical numbers experienced by early hominids, lions and wolves of a few million worldwide, to the billions of today, and the expected ten billion of tomorrow. No other large animal has been so successful.Success has been attributed to great men, yet there is little evidence that this success comes from their behaviour. The behaviour of great men differs little from that of men dead young, or that of abject failures. It appears that the success of men, enterprises and nations depends on a few specific actions, which can repeatedly be seen in every story of success. Each of these actions can be discerned as the driver of great empires, and human destiny can be followed through the development of new and better methods of doing them. Analysing the succession of European empires can allow us to understand today's political situation better, and to predict the future, and to minimise suffering if that is desired. For great empires require a victim, and it can be shown why. These victims have always existed in great empires, and can be easily identified today, although it is not always recognised as such. They are the ultimate tax-payers.
