Paul Charles Topalian, "Tradecraft Primer: A Framework for Aspiring Interrogators" English | 2016 | pages: 152 | ISBN: 113845849X | PDF | 4,3 mb Tradecraft Primer: A Framework for Aspiring Interrogators is a timely and relevant reference manual for a new generation of professionals as we enter a new era in our nation's interrogation programs. A must-read for anyone thinking of entering the interrogation profession, whether in law enforcement, the military, or intelligence, it provides fresh insights from the latest empirical-based studies that will enhance your results and contribute to best practices. It challenges past beliefs and legacy interrogation practices of previous generations by capturing novel approaches that no longer rely on physical and psychological coercion, unethical or questionable ruses, or abusive mistreatment.  Mr Sandeep Balakrishna, "Tipu Sultan The Tyrant of Mysore" English | ISBN: 8192788466 | 2014 | 224 pages | EPUB | 3 MB his book is part of series of books which will 'De-Falsify our existing History', We have seen, read, and heard about a lot of phony people claiming to be freedom fighters and receiving pensions from the Government. Several of these worthies would not have been born before Independence; yet they succeed in such blatant manipulations. There are instances of portraying certain ruler's & chieftains, as true heroes who fought against the British Empire. Post Freedom, India witnessed several catastrophic changes as a result of which many new icons and ideologies were propagated and their tentacles spread far and wide and even today, the people of India continue to suffer their ill-effects. Tipu is one such heavily-eulogised icon in both our textbooks and popular media. Sandeep in this book, which has been well researched, establishes the true facts on Tipu Sultan and proves his actual performance as a Chieftain.

Therapy and the Postpartum Woman: Notes on Healing Postpartum Depression for Clinicians and the Women Who Seek their Help English | 2023 | ISBN: 103216378X | 367 Pages | PDF (True) | 3 MB  Theory of Robot Control By Professor Carlos Canudas de Wit PhD, Professor Bruno Siciliano PhD (auth.), Professor Carlos Canudas de Wit PhD, Professor Bruno Siciliano PhD, Professor Georges Bastin PhD (eds.) 1996 | 392 Pages | ISBN: 1447115031 | PDF | 8 MB The advent of new high-speed microprocessor technology together with the need for high-performance robots created substantial and realistic place for control theory in the field of robotics. Since the beginning of the 80's, robotics and control theory have greatly benefited from a mutual fertiliza tion. On one hand, robot models (inherently highly nonlinear) have been used as good case studies for exemplifying general concepts of analysis and design of advanced control theory; on the other hand, robot manipulator by using new control algorithms. Fur performance has been improved thermore, many interesting robotics problems, e. g. , in mobile robots, have brought new control theory research lines and given rise to the development of new controllers (time-varying and nonlinear). Robots in control are more than a simple case study. They represent a natural source of inspiration and a great pedagogical tool for research and teaching in control theory. Several advanced control algorithms have been developed for different types of robots (rigid, flexible and mobile), based either on existing control techniques, e. g. , feedback linearization and adaptive control, or on new control techniques that have been developed on purpose. Most of those results, although widely spread, are nowadays rather dispersed in different journals and conference proceedings. The purpose of this book is to collect some of the most fundamental and current results on theory of robot control in a unified framework, by editing, improving and completing previous works in the area.

 Kelly Kollman, "The same-sex unions revolution in Western democracies: International norms and domestic policy change" English | ISBN: 0719084539 | 2013 | 232 pages | EPUB | 2 MB This book examines same-sex unions policy (SSU) developments in eighteen western democracies and seeks to explain why the overwhelming majority of these countries has implemented a national law to recognise gay and lesbian couples since 1989. Drawing on extensive interview and document analysis the book illustrates the ways in which SSU policy debates and outcomes have been catalysed by international norm diffusion and social learning. The second part of the study analyses these processes in greater depth using two comparative case studies (Germany and the Netherlands; the United States and Canada) to identify how the norm influences domestic policy debates as well as which factors determine how much power it can exert in different national environments. The case study analysis also reveals why western democracies have implemented different models of recognition (marriage vs. registered partnership vs. unregistered cohabitant). |
