Air Band Radio Handbook

Air Band Radio Handbook

Smith David J.

Sutton Publishing Ltd
2005
nidottu
Air band radio is the means of communication between aircraft and those on the ground that control them. For more than fifteen years, Air Band Radio Handbook has been acknowledged as the essential reference for both ground-based air band listeners and flyers. David J. Smith's accessible and comprehensive text explains the intricacies of air traffic control and its jargon, enabling the reader to locate and interpret what is actually going on in the airways overhead. He also describes the types of air band radio available and how to use them. Now available again in this fully updated eighth edition, Air Band Radio Handbook includes the very latest on ATC including the newly opened Swanwick Control Centre, the use of datalink by Oceanic Control Centres and the reduction in use of HF, changes to Departure Flow methods, and a completely new chapter on air band radios and related publications for the enthusiast - both in print and on the internet.

Folklore of the Winnebago Tribe

Folklore of the Winnebago Tribe

Smith David Lee

University of Oklahoma Press
1997
sidottu
The oral tradition of the Winnebago, or Ho-Chunk, people ranges from creation myths to Trickster stories and histories of the tribe. It is particularly strong in animal tales, as storyteller and tribal historian David Lee Smith vividly demonstrates in Folklore of the Winnebago Tribe, a collection drawn from the Smithsonian Institution and other sources, including the work of contemporaries. Smith himself contributes fourteen tales.In the book we meet relatively recent characters such as Ho-poe-kaw (Glory-of-the-Morning), the famed and formidable woman chief who battled many other tribes as well as whites, threw historic alliances into disarray, and - although she often discomfited the French - married a Frenchman. We also encounter traditional figures, Trickster, talking dogs, Eagle, Owl, and Rabbit, moving through the chronicles of these Woodland people who stemmed from the Great Lakes region. The tales incorporate both the visionary and the down-to-earth. Some are deeply moving. Some, reflecting earlier items, are full of violence.

Sir Edward Coke and the Reformation of the Laws

Sir Edward Coke and the Reformation of the Laws

Smith David Chan

Cambridge University Press
2014
sidottu
Throughout his early career, Sir Edward Coke joined many of his contemporaries in his concern about the uncertainty of the common law. Coke attributed this uncertainty to the ignorance and entrepreneurship of practitioners, litigants, and other users of legal power whose actions eroded confidence in the law. Working to limit their behaviours, Coke also simultaneously sought to strengthen royal authority and the Reformation settlement. Yet the tensions in his thought led him into conflict with James I, who had accepted many of the criticisms of the common law. Sir Edward Coke and the Reformation of the Laws reframes the origins of Coke's legal thought within the context of law reform and provides a new interpretation of his early career, the development of his legal thought, and the path from royalism to opposition in the turbulent decades leading up to the English civil wars.

Less Than Human

Less Than Human

Smith David Livingstone

St Martin's Press
2012
nidottu
"Brute." "Cockroach." "Lice." "Vermin." People often regard members of their own kind as less than human, and use terms like these for those whom they wish to harm, enslave, or exterminate. Dehumanization has made atrocities like the Holocaust, the genocide in Rwanda, and the slave trade possible. But it isn't just a relic of the past. We still find it in war, genocide, xenophobia, and racism. Smith shows that it is a dangerous mistake to think of dehumanization as the exclusive preserve of Nazis, communists, terrorists, Jews, Palestinians, or any other monster of the moment. We are all potential dehumanizers, just as we are all potential objects of dehumanization. The problem of dehumanization is everyone's problem. "Less Than Human" is the first book to illuminate precisely how and why we sometimes think of others as subhuman creatures. It draws on a rich mix of history, evolutionary psychology, biology, anthropology, and philosophy to document the pervasiveness of dehumanization, describe its forms, and explain why we so often resort to it. "Less Than Human" is a powerful and highly original study of the roots of human violence and bigotry, and it as timely as it is relevant.

Culture Trumps Strategy: Achieving High Performance Through People

Culture Trumps Strategy: Achieving High Performance Through People

Smith David

Grosvenor House Publishing Ltd
2016
nidottu
This is David Smith's much requested second business book, which utilises his 7 principles of building a high performance culture. In this book, David has interviewed numerous CEOs and discusses how they have developed high performance cultures. His storytelling brings the subject alive, and the lessons of the book are practical, simple and arresting. There is a body of evidence to suggest that 'switched on' leaders are producing great results from cultural stimuli. David has made his book deliberately shorter than his first - since he recognises that busy people, in the age of Twitter, have limited time to read.

The Hindu Erotic

The Hindu Erotic

Smith David

I.B. Tauris
2020
sidottu
Perhaps more than any other religion Hinduism is associated in the modern mind with the erotic. "The Kama Sutra" and the sexual activity portrayed in stone at the great medieval Indian temple complex of Khajuraho are renowned the world over. The classical Hindu exploration of eroticism is manifestly one of the supreme expressions of the human spirit. Hindu sculpture, defined as uniquely able to express inner states of being, is no less able to portray the beauty of eroticism. At the same time, many Hindus see their religion rising above the world of the senses and deprecate western enthusiasm for a perceived erotic India. In this important book David Smith explores the true significance of Hindu eroticism. He shows that while withdrawal from the senses is a major component of Hinduism, it is precisely because the Hindu appreciation of the power of the senses is so very refined that asceticism developed in India as a counter-reaction. He argues that so varied, extensive and diffused is the Hindu idea of the erotic that it is central to understanding the inner heart of Hinduism. Profound and stimulating in equal measure, and illustrated throughout by some of the greatest examples of Hindu erotic art, "The Hindu Erotic" will be essential reading for anyone interested in Indian religion, sexuality, and South Asian culture.

Hidden Conversations

Hidden Conversations

Smith David Livingstone

Karnac Books
1991
nidottu
Hidden Conversations introduces Robert Langs radical reinterpretation of psychoanalysis by presenting and expanding his ideas in new and accessible ways. It is the first clear account of the theories underlying Langs approach, placing them within the context of the history of psychoanalysis and showing, for example, that Freud nearly discovered the communicative approach in the late 1890s, and that in the 1930s Ferenczi also anticipated the method. David Livingstone Smith illustrates this communicative approach with a wealth of practical detail and clinical examples, including verbatim accounts of communicative psychoanalytical sessions with a commentary on the unconscious processes underlying them.

Nation-Building and Minority Politics in Post-Socialist States

Nation-Building and Minority Politics in Post-Socialist States

David J Galbreath; David J Smith

ibidem-Verlag, Jessica Haunschild u Christian Schon
2005
nidottu
Despite socialism's best efforts, ethnic identity remained a salient feature in Central and Eastern Europe. Not only did ethno-nationalism help to bring about the fall of the socialist regimes in this region, but it also characterized much of the post-socialist politics. Nation-Building and Minority Politics examines the issue of minority politics in post-socialist states within this dual structure. In particular, it offers an in-depth analysis of post-restoration politics in Estonia and Latvia, covering four issues. First, it looks at the historical context of the current group relations. Second, the study explores the domestic nature of minority politics in Estonia and Latvia by looking at domestic politics and policies. Third, it examines the role of the Russian Federation as an 'external national homeland' through illustrating developments within Russian foreign policy. Finally, the book analyses the role of three significant European organizations, namely the OSCE, EU and the Council of Europe as agents of 'conditionality'.Overall, this study combines old and new theoretical approaches to nation-building and minority politics to exhibit the changing nature of the relationship between majority, minority, external national homeland, and international organizations in today's Europe.
