A love story of unusual circumstance - and outcome. Explores the senses, provokes awareness, sensitivity, thoughts, and inflames emotions. Offers a message about life. Holds to a moral plane of human behavior in the face of powerful carnal and erotic experiences. The setting: the minds, emotions, hearts, and bodies of people in unusual circumstance while sharing days on an island in Greece and later, elsewhere in the world. Suitable for adults not offended by graphic depiction of erotic scenes and circumstances. A few days and experiences with an unusual woman force a man to recognize he has wandered away from feelings, suppressed emotions, and forgotten the significance of life. Journeys of the mind - and the flesh - compel him to return to the heart. A woman provokes his senses and leads him beyond the fringes of consciousness back to the Heart, the Soul, to the passion of Life - to rediscover Life. In the midst of consuming passion and the erotic ransacking of the senses, a naive and beautiful young nymph shares the days with them, challenges their senses and duty as humans - and forces moral decision and behavior. During these few days or erotic explorations of unusual relationships, they must preserve the treasure of Life for tomorrow.

Reprint. 15,000 first printing.
The first full account in English of the archaeological material from early Rome and the surrounding region of Latium, from the Late Bronze Age down to the end of the sixth century BC. The book sets for the first time the region of Latium in its proper context as the hinterland of Rome, and as participating in the major developments in central Italy, including Campania and Etruria, and as a witness to the radical transformation of the Mediterranean as a whole in the Late Bronze and Early Iron Age. Dr Smith presents the most recent evidence from the whole region as well as Rome itself, and discusses the reliability and usefulness of the literary accounts of early Latium, as well as applying theoretical models of regional economy and archaeological interpretation.
Peace, War and the European Powers, 1814–1914

1996

The causes of war have tended to attract more attention than the causes of peace, yet the two are intimately related, Indeed there was much talk of war during the unprecedentedly long periods of peace between the European great powers in the years 1815-1854 and again in 1871-1914, the Near Eastern crises of 1878 and 1887-8 being only two of the more notable examples. In the case of the latter, there occurred a spell of fatalistic and belligerent talk in both Berlin and Vienna which in many ways anticipated that which gripped those capitals by 1914. A study of the whole question of the best methods by which to defend and advance the national interest is often more illuminating on why wars were avoided that are studies of the documentation surrounding the Holy Alliance, the congress system or the Concert of Europe. It is clear that the Concert tended to become most active only after a war had already been fought, or when the powers had already decided that conflict was likely to prove too costly, dangerous and unpredicatable in its effects both at home and abroad. Thus the Russians twice advanced almost to the gates of Constantinople only to recoil at the implications of trying to obtain control of the Straits. Similarly, Habsburg thoughts of war were frequently neutralised by reminders of financial weakness. This valuable book will be welcomed by anyone wishing to understand the nature of European state relations in the nineteenth century. Professor Bartlett examines why major wars did happen and did not happen, with particular attention being paid to the events of 1914.
A collection of poetry and other writings that explores questions regarding birth, spiritual rebirth, our relationship to the earth, and our relationship to God. The author mixes the mundane with the divine to create a volume of poetry that is uniquely Latter-day Saint. Insightful and at times playful and provocative, this faith filled volume is nevertheless accessible to all readers.
The first book to tell the whole story of SNAP and to explain why all Americans should support it. The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program is the nation’s largest government effort for helping low-income Americans obtain an adequate diet. How did SNAP, formerly the food stamp program, evolve from a Depression-era project to use up surplus goods into America’s foundational food assistance program? And how does SNAP survive? Incisive and original, Why SNAP Works is the first book to provide a comprehensive history and evaluation of the nation’s most important food insecurity and poverty alleviation effort. Everyone has an opinion about SNAP, not all of them positive, but its benefits are felt broadly and across party lines. Christopher Bosso makes a clear, nuanced, and impassioned case for protecting this unique food program, exploring its history and breaking down the facts for readers across the political spectrum. Why SNAP Works is an essential book for anyone concerned about food access, poverty, and social welfare in the United States.

The Politics of South India 1920–1937

Cambridge University Press
2007

The interwar years witnessed great changes in the political life of India, with the establishment of new governmental institutions, the emergence of political movements based on class, caste and ideology, and the rapid expansion of the nationalist campaign. This book looks at the complex of political changes during this crucial and formative period in the Madras Presidency, the largest but often the most neglected province of British India. Among the many strands of political life and behaviour which Dr Baker studies are the non-Brahman movement, peasant agitations, caste movements and the rise of the Indian National Congress to a position of undisputed primacy in the region. Making use of hitherto unresearched materials Dr Baker attempts the first overall study of the political process and the dynamics of political change in the province. The book may also be seen as a case-study of political change in a late-colonial society.

Untangling Knots of Confusion: Clarifying Common Sources of Confusion
Christopher John Irving
Irving Publishing
2020
nidottu
This book contains a series of lucid essays on common sources of confusion. In each case, the author introduces the topic about which there is confusion, specifies where the confusion lies, articulates the causes of each particular type and replaces the confusion with clarity.A knot of confusion occurs wherever an association of ideas leads to erroneous conclusions. Such associations are inappropriate and misleading and if undetected may seed chain reactions of confusion, which inevitably result in chain reactions of correspondingly inappropriate action. In addition to these illegitimate associations, there are also an array of erroneous assumptions and simple misconceptions.Frequently the confusion is due to the fact that there are a number of different matters all tangled up together. The process of clarification consists of identifying the different ideas that have tangled together to form knots of confusion, disentangling these separate strands and making the actual or legitimate relationships between them explicit.The topics covered are varied and are reflected in the titles of the essays. These titles are 'The Art of Inquiry', 'Truth and Belief', 'On Judgement', Is Evolution Compatible with Creation', 'Clarifying Spiritual Discourse', 'The Psychology of Conspiracy Theories', 'Synchronicity Meaning and Scepticism', 'Depression', 'Is Should a Dirty Word', 'Are Sceptical Societies a Form of Cult', 'Responsibility', 'Speculations on the Concept of Information', 'Randomness', 'Core Beliefs' and 'Too Many Words'.
