Dan Green; Edward Widmer

KINGFISHER
2025
nidottu
Basher's U.S. Presidents shows you the nation's leaders as you've never seen them before Every president, from George Washington to Donald Trump's second term, has his own entry and speaks directly to the reader. Often humorous, these lively and enlightening vignettes bring history to life. Meet James Monroe, known as the "Last Cocked Hat" because he pranced around in an outdated wig, hat, and breeches Learn more about "Uncle Jumbo" (better known as Grover Cleveland): the first president to serve two non-consecutive terms. Find out how Ronald Reagan helped end the Cold War. Quirky facts add interest. Did you know that John Quincy Adams had a pet alligator? That Teddy Roosevelt (and his whole family) could walk on stilts? Or that Lyndon B. Johnson had worked as an elevator operator? Read this book, and you'll soon be on personal terms with every single US Head Honcho to date. Fully updated for 2025.

The Boatloads

The Boatloads

Dan Albergotti; Edward Hirsch

BOA Editions, Limited
2008
pokkari
Perhaps the most distinctive aspect of The Boatloads is its overt references to church and Christianity. Dan Albergotti's references are not mere proselytizing, though. In fact, the first poem in the book, "Vestibule," tells the story of the author's teenage experience making love to his girlfriend in a university chapel, saying: "Lord of this other world, let me recall that night. / Let me again hear how our whispered exclamations / near the end seemed like rising hymnal rhythm / and let me feel how those forgotten words came / from somewhere else and meant something."Dan Albergotti teaches at Coastal Carolina University in Conway, South Carolina.

Du tycker att samhällsfrågor är spännande och har ett särskilt intresse för kriser och oförutsedda händelser. Vad gör egentligen de som har ansvar och förväntningar på sig att ställa saker till rätta i en krissituation? Hur fungerar mediernas granskning och hur agerar andra parter som har till uppgift att utkräva ansvar? När väl den akuta fasen är över, vad lär sig de inblandade aktörerna, och hur fungerar förändringsarbetet och införandet av nya policyer? Perspektiv på krishantering är till för dig som vill fördjupa dig i dessa frågor.De perspektiv som presenteras är olika sätt att närma sig och studera krishantering som fenomen.Boken är indelad i tre övergripande perspektiv: hantera, granska och förändra. Genomgående i boken presenteras fallbeskrivningar av verkliga händelser och faktiskt handlande. Men fokus ligger inte på händelserna som sådana, utan på förståelsen av dem – de teoretiska perspektiven. Även om boken är rik på perspektiv gör den inte anspråk på att vara heltäckande. Snarare inbjuder den dig som är intresserad och engagerad att själv studera krishantering och bidra till kunskapsfältet.

Herbal Medicines in Pregnancy and Lactation

Herbal Medicines in Pregnancy and Lactation

Edward Mills; Jean-Jacques Dugoua; Dan Perri; Gideon Koren

CRC Press
2006
sidottu
Just as with prescription drugs, natural health products can present substantial risks and prompt the same areas of concern. Although some of these effects may be life-threatening, current literature on these important issues is scant. With the use of natural health products on the rise, physicians require quality evidence with which to make evidence-based decisions and provide answers to their patients. Herbal Medicines in Pregnancy and Lactation focuses entirely on the therapeutics, safety and risk information of herbs and supplements used during pregnancy and lactation for obstetricians, maternal-fetal medicine specialists, and primary care physicians.

The Economic Consequences of Investing in Shipbuilding

The Economic Consequences of Investing in Shipbuilding

RAND
2015
pokkari
This report assesses the economic impacts that a shipbuilder has on its local community and region. The authors utilize a case study methodology to examine two U.S. shipbuilders and the Saab Aeronautics Gripen program in Sweden. While each shipbuilder has had beneficial effects on its local economy, neither shipbuilder has given rise to the ecosystem of favorable spillovers and spin-offs that the Gripen program seems to have created.

Independent Chinese Documentary

Independent Chinese Documentary

Dan Edwards

Edinburgh University Press
2015
sidottu
This book analyses how independent documentaries are forging a new public sphere in today's China. Since the turn of the twenty first century there has been an explosion in Chinese independent documentary filmmaking. But how are we to understand this vibrant burst of activity? Are these films brave expressions of dissidence, or are they part of a broader, more complex push to expand the terms of public discourse in the People's Republic? Considering the relationship between independent documentaries and China's official film and television sectors, this timely study explores the ways in which independent films probe, question and challenge the dominant ideas and narratives circulating in the state sanctioned public sphere. Based on detailed interviews with Chinese documentary filmmakers that are rarely available in English, the author draws on his own insights as a journalist working in Beijing to provide a detailed analysis of key contemporary documentaries. This groundbreaking book reveals a sustained attempt to forge an alternative public sphere, where the views and experiences of petitioners, AIDS sufferers, dispossessed farmers and the victims of Mao's repression can be publicly aired for a small but steadily growing public. Offers a detailed account of one of the world's most active, vibrant and challenging contemporary documentary sectors; It draws extensively on first hand interviews with filmmakers; offers in depth, critical analyses of China's most challenging contemporary independent documentaries and discusses China's state sanctioned film and television sectors to cast new light on how the official public sphere is shaped and guided by the state.

Nick Carter and Hope Maguire had much in common, but Hope was resistant to a relationship with the older, divorced man. Commonality, however, drove the pair together. Neither of them found peace at night. Something haunted their dreams and disrupted sleep. Nightmares were common but could not be recalled. Suffering similar symptoms, they shared a psychologist. The horrible truth came to light when Nick and Hope were regressed through hypnosis. Matters worsened when Nick's teenage daughter and her friend disappeared for an extended period of time. Nick feared that the same was done to the teen girls as had been done to him and Hope. Disappearances and lost time became common issues. Something certainly was wrong in the mountains of Virginia.

Bullying of Staff in Schools

Bullying of Staff in Schools

Australian Council Educational Research (ACER)
2012
nidottu
Bullying of Staff in Schools aims to assist school employees to understand the phenomenon of bullying of staff, its existence, the forms it takes, and its impact on staff and their schools. This book does not aim to convert school employees into psychologists or counsellors but rather to ensure they are better informed about bullying of staff. Data from research studies involving over 2500 participants identifies bullies and targets, examines the phenomenon across 10 demographic classifications, details the human and economic costs, and provides helpful advice and recommendations to school employees and school leaders. The intention of this book is to reposition the debate on bullying of staff in schools from the periphery to the centre of a growing national and international concern about workplace bullying; to eliminate it from schools; and to provide a resource to which employees may turn daily in their efforts to meet and negate the negative impact of bullying of staff.
