Brain Dead - Augmented book 4: A Post-Apocalyptic Zombie Series

Brain Dead - Augmented book 4: A Post-Apocalyptic Zombie Series

Disaster has struck. Rebels have rendered Neraka defenceless, leaving thousands of innocents at the mercy of the largest zombie horde ever recorded. Total annihilation seems inevitable. Yet still, amidst the chaos of war, John and his dwindling crew refuse to surrender. They have the brains and guts to win the fight against the undead, and they're making new alliances. Plus, finally, the facts of the zomb-augpocalypse are within reach. Newer, deadlier threats are on the horizon, however. Technology is being used against the AugFrees. For once, zomb-augs are not at the top of the food chain. Facing murderous cyborgs and crippling nanotech, John must be at his cleverest to survive. If he fails, the family he's building is doomed. But will his new-found responsibilities, along with the rise of the most dangerous traitor thus far, prove too much? Can John beat the odds again, or will he and his fellow Nerakans wind up as dead as the monsters at the gate?

Somehow, John has defeated his enemies both inside and outside Neraka. He's become the city's leader, which means the lives of two hundred thousand civilians, as well as Amber's and their unborn child's, are in his hands. He never asked for the role of Temporary Chief Executive, though; he doesn't yearn for power like some of his rivals. Now they face the greatest threat of all. The Shepherds, the shadowy global organisation who marshal the zomb-augs, have had their noses bloodied by John and his city. Their maniacal ruler swears to destroy the AugFrees of West Virginia in retaliation. John faces the ultimate choice: should he fight fire with fire and use his foes' weapons against them? Or will he ignore his instincts and trust the zombie-killing skills he's honed over the last two years? In the meantime, enemies closer to home continue to wreak havoc. If a certain former vice president has his way, the invading undead millions will find only smoke and ashes when they arrive. The stakes have never been higher, the chances of survival slimmer than ever before. But one way or another, the war ends here. Who will still be standing at the end?

Into the Inferno: A Photographer's Journey Through California's Megafires and Fallout

Into the Inferno: A Photographer's Journey Through California's Megafires and Fallout

Stuart Palley

Blackstone Publishing
2022
sidottu
In the tradition of Young Men and Fire and Fire on the Mountain, Stuart Palley's memoir Into the Inferno documents eight years of devastating wildfire in California, showing how fire can transform a landscape as well as a soul ... For nearly a decade, Palley has been on the front line of fire. He has witnessed homeowners on the worst day of their lives. He's seen puddles of aluminum where cars were once parked. He's watched as 150-foot walls of flame cascaded down mountainsides and crashed into the Pacific Ocean. And he's captured, time and again, the tireless commitment of firefighters as they work to save lives and homes, in terrain where fire always seems to have the upper hand. In this memoir, Palley recalls how he went from learning to be safe on the fire line to a fire-savvy documentarian of wildfire and climate change. He covers some of California's largest, most destructive, and deadliest fires between 2012 and 2020, lugging his gear from the Wine Country Fire Siege to the Thomas Fire and ultimately to the Woolsey Fire in Malibu. And he shows how, in a relatively short span of time, fire season in California has grown into a perpetual crisis, requiring billions of dollars and thousands of firefighters each year. Ultimately, the experiences, the voices, and the science shared in the memoir form an urgent call for climate action. Into the Inferno stands alongside Palley's photography to show just what kind of environmental tragedy we can expect if we do nothing.

A Concise History of Australia

A Concise History of Australia

Macintyre Stuart

Cambridge University Press
2015
pokkari
Australia is the last continent to be settled by Europeans, but it also sustains a people and a culture tens of thousands years old. For much of the past 225 years the newcomers have sought to replace the old with the new. This book tells how they imposed themselves on the land and describes how they brought technology, institutions and ideas to make it their own. The fourth edition incorporates the far-reaching effects of an export and investment boom in the early years of the twenty-first century that lifted Australia to unprecedented prosperity. The sale of minerals and energy enabled the economy to withstand the global financial crisis of 2007–08 but there was no agreement on how the wealth was to be managed and its benefits distributed. The book describes a continuing search for solutions to climate change, the unauthorised arrival of refugees, Indigenous disadvantage and generational change.

A System of Logic, Ratiocinative and Inductive

A System of Logic, Ratiocinative and Inductive

John Stuart Mill

Cambridge University Press
2011
pokkari
This two-volume work, first published in 1843, was John Stuart Mill's first major book. It reinvented the modern study of logic and laid the foundations for his later work in the areas of political economy, women's rights and representative government. In clear, systematic prose, Mill (1806–73) disentangles syllogistic logic from its origins in Aristotle and scholasticism and grounds it instead in processes of inductive reasoning. An important attempt at integrating empiricism within a more general theory of human knowledge, the work constitutes essential reading for anyone seeking a full understanding of Mill's thought. Volume 1 contains Mill's introduction, which elaborates upon his definition of logic as 'not the science of Belief, but the science of Proof, or Evidence'. It also features discussions of the central components of logical reasoning - propositions and syllogisms - in relation to Mill's theories of inductive reasoning and experimental method.

Continuing the discussion of induction, Volume 2 concludes with Book VI, 'On the Logic of the Moral Sciences', in which Mill applies empirical reasoning to human behaviour. A crucial early formulation of his thinking regarding free will and necessity, this book establishes the centrality of 'the social science' to Mill's philosophy.

A Thought-Reader's Thoughts

A Thought-Reader's Thoughts

Cumberland Stuart C.

Cambridge University Press
2012
pokkari
Although famous throughout Europe for his mind-reading skills, Stuart C. Cumberland (1857–1922) was a staunch critic of the 'rascality' of some spiritualist practices and their practitioners. He claimed that many of the séances and other events which he had experienced were merely fraudulent money-making impostures. He wrote several books on his life as a thought-reader, in which he also revealed the techniques of fake mediums and psychics. (His That Other World, of 1918, is also reissued in this series.) In this 1888 work, Cumberland narrates his own history and career and describes some of his most memorable séances. One of these took place in the House of Commons, where Cumberland subjected none other than the prime minister at the time, W. E. Gladstone, to having his thoughts read. Their encounter made a great impression on the author, who found Gladstone one of his most remarkable subjects.

A History of the Zulu Rebellion 1906

A History of the Zulu Rebellion 1906

James Stuart

Cambridge University Press
2013
pokkari
After many years of relatively peaceful coexistence, a dispute over taxation in 1906 stirred thousands of Zulus into bloody revolt against the British in Natal. Following the rebellion's defeat, James Stuart (1868–1942), an expert on Zulu customs and history, was commissioned to write the official history of military operations. It later became a private project of much broader scope. Providing a thoroughly researched account of the rebellion, Stuart wrote using the full breadth of his knowledge of Africa, drawing on the contacts and materials that became available to him during his time as an intelligence officer in the Natal Field Artillery. First published in 1913, the work also covers the administration of the Zulu territories and goes on to investigate the aftermath of the rebellion, including the arrest and imprisonment of the Zulu king, Dinuzulu.

Implement the Common Core for ELA without all the stress A Non-Freaked Out Guide to Teaching the Common Core uses the often-neglected anchor standards to get to the heart of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS)—teaching students the skills they need to be college and career ready. Each anchor standard is broken down into its key points, and a discussion of each anchor standard's central purpose helps outline the context for each required skill. This easy-to-read guide gives educators the kind of clear explanations, examples, and strategies they need to feel comfortable teaching the CCSS, and shows how CCSS skills can be integrated into virtually any existing lesson plan. Getting a firm grasp of the anchor standards is the quickest way to start teaching the key concepts of the CCSS, and this user-friendly guide is designed to pave the way for both the first-time teacher and the experienced pro.

A-Z Guide to Modern Social and Political Theorists

A-Z Guide to Modern Social and Political Theorists

Professor Stuart Sim; Noel Parker

Routledge
2017
sidottu
The A-Z Guide to Modern Social and Political Theories is a companion volume to the already published A-Z Guide to Modern Literary and Cultural Theorists. It ranges widely through the social sciences and related areas to identify thinkers who have had a major impact on the development of modern social and political theory and given clear, accessible summaries of their work. While the accent is on the later twentieth century, several up-and-coming theorists are included to ensure a contemporary edge to the volume, classic names in the field from the earlier twentieth century are not neglected, and the collection also delves back into the nineteenth century for such founding figures of the social sciences as Marx and Comte. The volume is therefore both up-to-date and mindful of the sources of modern debates.

First published in 1962. This volume is a collection of the papers from the Mercantile College that preserved as examples of the 'accounts of many distinguished and eminent merchants deceased ... who trod the Royal Exchange with supreme credit and dignity'. They bring together the commercial pride which was reached in the eighteenth century, before the challenge of industry and an economic interpretation based on its predominance brought its sobering influence to bear on 'the great mercantile classes of England'.
