 The Leader's Guide to Mindfulness: How to Use Soft Skills to Get Hard Results by Audrey Tang English | 2019 | ISBN: 1292248408 | 256 Pages | true EPUB | 1.48 MB  Tim Saunders, "The Island: Nijmegen to Arnhem" English | 2008 | ISBN: 0850528615 | EPUB | pages: 191 | 70.3 mb Having fought their way up fifty miles of Hell's Highway and through Nijmegen, XXX Corps was just ten miles from Arnhem and the 1st British Airborne Division. Here it found itself on an island of flat land between the Waal at Nijmegen and the Rhine at Arnhem. The situation was increasingly bad with the remainder of II SS Panzer Corps in the area and German counter attacks on Hell's Highway preventing the Allies applying their material superiority. The Guards Armoured and then 43rd Wessex Infantry Division took turns to lead before reaching the Rhine opposite the paratroopers in the Oosterbeek Perimeter.
 The Historical Imagination of G.K. Chesterton: Locality, Patriotism, and Nationalism By Joseph R. McCleary 2009 | 173 Pages | ISBN: 0415991757 | PDF | 2 MB This study examines a selection of Chesterton’s novels, poetry, and literary criticism and outlines the distinctive philosophy of history that emerges from these writings. Looking at Chesteron's relationship with and influence upon authors including William Cobbett, Sir Walter Scott, Belloc, Shaw, H.G. Wells, Christopher Dawson, Evelyn Waugh, and Marshall McLuhan, McCleary contends that Chesterton’s recurring use of the themes of locality, patriotism, and nationalism embodies a distinctive understanding of what gives history its coherence. The study concludes that Chesterton’s emphasis on locality is the hallmark of his historical philosophy in that it blends the concepts of free will, specificity, and creatureliness which he uses to make sense of history.  Ezio Portis, Alberto Acquadro, Sergio Lanteri, "The Globe Artichoke Genome" English | 2019 | ISBN: 3030200116 | PDF | pages: 238 | 12.3 mb This book presents the latest information on the genetics and genomics of the globe artichoke. It focuses on the latest findings, tools and strategies employed in genome sequencing, physical map development and QTL analyses, as well as genomic resources. The re-sequencing of four globe artichoke genotypes, representative of the core varietal types in cultivation, as well as the genotype of cultivated cardoon, has recently been completed. Here, the five genomes are reconstructed at the chromosome scale and annotated. Moreover, functional SNP analyses highlight numerous genetic variants, which represent key tools for dissecting the path from sequence variation to phenotype, as well as for designing effective diagnostic markers.  The FAL Rifle Classic Edition 1998 | ISBN: 0889351686 | English | 827 Pages | PDF | 650 MB [center]  Peter Singer, "The Expanding Circle: Ethics, Evolution, and Moral Progress" English | ISBN 10: 0691150699 | 2011 | PDF | 232 pages | 11,1 MB What is ethics? Where do moral standards come from? Are they based on emotions, reason, or some innate sense of right and wrong? For many scientists, the key lies entirely in biology-especially in Darwinian theories of evolution and self-preservation. But if evolution is a struggle for survival, why are we still capable of altruism?
 The Evolution of the Chinese Internet: Creative Visibility in the Digital Public by Shaohua Guo English | ISBN: 1503613771, 1503614433 | 326 pages | EPUB | December 15, 2020 | 0.97 Mb Despite widespread consensus that China's digital revolution was sure to bring about massive democratic reforms, such changes have not come to pass. While scholars and policy makers alternate between predicting change and disparaging a stubbornly authoritarian regime, in this book Shaohua Guo demonstrates how this dichotomy misses the far more complex reality. The Evolution of the Chinese Internet traces the emergence and maturation of one of the most creative digital cultures in the world through four major technological platforms: the bulletin board system, the blog, the microblog, and WeChat. Guo transcends typical binaries of freedom and control, to argue that Chinese Internet culture displays a uniquely sophisticated interplay between multiple extremes, and that its vibrancy is dependent on these complex negotiations. In contrast to the flourishing of research findings on what is made invisible online, this book examines the driving mechanisms that grant visibility to particular kinds of user-generated content. Offering a systematic account of how and why an ingenious Internet culture has been able to thrive, Guo highlights the pivotal roles that media institutions, technological platforms, and creative practices of Chinese netizens have played in shaping culture on- and offline.  The Electron: New Theory and Experiment by David Hestenes English | PDF | 1991 | 405 Pages | ISBN : 9401055823 | 34.6 MB techniques, and raises new issues of physical interpretation as well as possibilities for deepening the theory. (3) Barut contributes a comprehensive review of his own ambitious program in electron theory and quantum electrodynamics.
 The Economic Breakthrough: How to Monitor GDP Growth or Contraction and Boost a Country's Economy by Clifton Chambers English | 2021 | ASIN: B08RDGRYXW | 75 Pages | EPUB | 2 MB  The DevOps Toolkit: Catalog, Patterns, And Blueprints English | 2020 | ISBN: n/a | 419 Pages | PDF EPUB MOBI | 44 MB Unlike my other books where I typically dive into a single tool or a single process, this time, I chose a different approach. Instead of going to great lengths trying to help someone become proficient in one thing, this time, I am trying to give you a quick introduction into many different tools and processes. We will skip the potentially lengthy discussions and in-depth exercises. What I want, this time, is to help you make decisions. Which tool works the best for a given task? What should we explore in more depth, and what is a waste of time? The goal is not to learn everything about a tool in detail but rather to dive into many concepts and a plethora of tools right away. The aim is to get you up-to-speed fast while producing useful "real world" results. Think of each chapter as a crash-course into something with the outcome that you can use right away. |
