 Small-Scale Urban Greening: Creating Places of Health, Creativity, and Ecological Sustainability by Angela Loder 2020 | ISBN: 1138187879, 0367900831 | English | 262 pages | PDF | 8 MB Small-scale urban greening projects are changing the urban landscape, shifting our experience and understanding of greenspaces in our cities. This book argues that including power dynamics, symbolism, and aesthetics in our understanding of the human relationship to urban nature can help us create places that nurture ecological and human health and promote successful and equitable urban communities. Using an interdisciplinary approach to current research debates and new comparative case studies on community perceptions of these urban greening projects and policies, this book explores how small-scale urban greening projects can impact our sense of place, health, creativity, and concentration while also being part of a successful urban greening program. Arguing that wildness, emotion, and sense of place are key components of our human-nature relationship, this book will be of interest to designers, academics, and policy makers.

Sex, Violence and Crime: Foucault and the 'Man' Question By Adrian Howe 2008 | 247 Pages | ISBN: 1904385923 | PDF | 2 MB What happens when you sex violent crimes? More specifically, what happens when you make men’s violence against women the subject of a conversation or the focus of scholarly attention? The short answer is: all hell breaks loose. Adrian Howe explores some of the ways in which this persistent and pervasive form of violence has been named and unnamed as a significant social problem in western countries over the past four decades. Addressing what she calls the вЂMan’ question-so named because it pays attention to the discursive place occupied, or more usually vacated, by men in accounts of their violence against women-she explores what happens when that violence is placed on the criminological and political agenda. В Written in a theoretically-informed yet accessible style, Sex, Violence and Crime-Foucault and the вЂMan’ Question provides a novel and highly original approach to questions of sex and violence in contemporary western society. Directed at criminologists, students and, more widely, at anyone interested in these issues, it challenges readers to come to grips with postmodern feminist reconceptualisations of the fraught relationship between sex, violence and crime in order to better combat men’s violence against women and children.

Return to the Gospel of the Water and the Spirit. By Paul C. Jong 2000 | 293 Pages | ISBN: 8983140380 | PDF | 2 MB I am sure originality decides the intrinsic value of non-fiction books. Our books are absolutely original. They are the first books of our time to uncover the secret of Jesus baptism by John the Baptist. There was no Christmas for the first two centuries in the Early Church.The Early Church Christians along with Jesus Apostles had only commemorated January 6th as the Day of Jesus Baptism at the Jordan by John the Baptist. Why did they lay such a great emphasis on Jesus Baptism in their beliefs? Our books give a correct answer to the question. And the answer is the very key into the Christianity of Apostolic Tradition. The main theme of our titles is thoroughly the secret of Jesus Baptism and the gospel of the water and the Spirit (John 3:5). It is not a side issue of Christianity but the core concern of all Christians. Our titles are 100% Biblical and rational,but they will stir up nominal Christians to a tremendous sensation of the Gospel of the water and the Spirit.The message of this book will be an error-eterring tool to many truth seekers of the Bible.
