"By My Absolute Royal Authority": Justice and the Castilian Commonwealth at the Beginning of the First Global Age By J. B. Owens 2005 | 396 Pages | ISBN: 1580462014 | PDF | 11 MB "By My Absolute Royal Authority": Justice and the Castilian Commonwealth at the Beginning of the First Global Age is a study of judicial administration. From the fifteenth century to the seventeenth, the kingdom of Castile experienced a remarkable proliferation of judicial institutions, which historians have generally seen as part of a metanarrative of "state-building." Yet, Castile's frontiers were extremely porous, and a crown government that could not control the kingdom's borders exhibited neither the ability to obtain information and shape affairs, nor the centrality of court politics that many historians claim in an effort to craft a tidy narrative of this period. Castilians retained their loyalty to the monarchy not because of the "power" of the institutions of a developing "state," but because they shared an identity as citizens of a commonwealth in which a high value was given to justice as an ultimate purpose of the political community and a conviction that the sovereign possessed "absolute royal authority" to see that justice was done. This expectation served as a foundation for the political identity and loyalty that held together for several centuries the disparate and globally-dispersed domains of the Hispanic Monarchy, but perceptions of how well crown judicial institutions worked were a fundamental determinant of the degree of support a monarch could attract to meet fiscal and military goals. This book maps part of this unfamiliar terrain through a microhistory of an extended, high profile lawsuit that was carefully watched by generations of Castilian leaders. Justices from the late fifteenth century to the reign of Philip II had difficulty resolving the conflict because the proper exercise of "absolute royal authority" was itself the central legal issue and the dispute pitted against each other members of important groups who demonstrated a tendency to give prominence to different interpretive schemes as they tried to comprehend their world. The account brings together political ideas and political action by giving serious attention to how well royal justices were able to handle difficult, prominent lawsuits that raised politically troubling questions and involved major litigants. J. B. Owens is professor of the history and director of the Glenn E. Tyler Collection at Idaho State University, where he specializes in Spanish history and the use of Geographic Information Systems for research and teaching.

Brain Computer Interface: Can't beat'em, Join'em by Fouad Sabry English | ISBN: 9781005580087 | ASIN: B08TRXZ95P | 77 pages | EPUB | January 20, 2021 | 2.89 Mb The idea of interfacing minds with computers has captured human imagination for a long time. Recent developments in neuroscience and engineering have made this concept a possibility, opening the door to restoring and potentially growing human physical and mental capabilities. Medical applications such as cochlear implants for deaf patients and deep brain stimulation for Parkinson's disease are becoming increasingly common. Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) (also known as brain-machine interfaces or BMIs) are currently being explored in applications as diverse as defense, lie detection, alertness monitoring, telepresence, gaming, education, art, and human enhancement.
Boy Soldier: A memoir of innocence lost and humanity regained in northern Uganda by Norman Okello, Theo Hollander English | ISBN: 1783528117 | 528 pages | EPUB | January 21, 2021 | 0.75 Mb Uganda's civil war with Joseph Kony's Lord's Resistance Army has raged since the 1980s, claiming over 100,000 lives and displacing around 1.5 million people. Kony's rebel force, who combine religious mysticism with extreme brutality, have abducted tens of thousands of children: their child soldiers. Their insurgency continues to this day, though most of us know little about it. Norman Okello was only twelve when he was abducted by the LRA. In captivity, he was subjected to a ruthless training regime aimed at turning him into a killing machine free from conscience and fear. Forced to commit unspeakable acts of violence, Norman struggled not just to stay alive but to hold on to the last shreds of his humanity. When he finally escaped the clutches of the LRA, he faced his next ordeal: trying to reintegrate into a society that feared and despised him. Harrowing, heart-rending and enlightening in equal measure, Boy Soldier is above all a story of survival and redemption against unbelievable odds. |
