Rich McCormick, "A More Perfect Union" English | 2022 | ASIN: B0B28VHSMT | 52 pages | EPUB | 2.5 MB A Chaos Space Marines Story A Literature of Restitution: Critical Essays on W.G. Sebald By Jeannette Baxter; Valerie Henitiuk; Ben Hutchinson 2013 | 336 Pages | ISBN: 0719088526 | EPUB | 6 MB This book investigates the crucial question of 'restitution' in the work of W. G. Sebald. Written by leading scholars from a range of disciplines, with a foreword by his English translator Anthea Bell, the essays collected in this volume place Sebald's oeuvre within the broader context of European culture in order to better understand his engagement with the ethics of aesthetics.Whilst opening up his work to a range of under-explored areas including dissident surrealism, Anglo-Irish relations, contemporary performance practices and the writings of H. G. Adler, the volume notably returns to the original German texts. The recurring themes identified in the essays - from Sebald's carefully calibrated syntax to his self-consciousness about 'genre', from his interest in liminal spaces to his literal and metaphorical preoccupation with blindness and vision - all suggest that the 'attempt at restitution' constitutes the very essence of Sebald's understanding of literature. A Life in Balance: The Book of Health and Soul by Ryan James English | 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B09TFK8P2X | 65 pages | EPUB | 0.32 Mb In 1986, the member states of the WHO agreed on comprehensive guidelines for global health policy. The underlying concept of health, which is still valid today, is:Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.Is that an unrealistic ideal, or does it really exist that you can completely" comfortable? Be that as it may, this definition met with general agreement. Health is not just the opposite of illness. Health has now become an industry and plays an important role not only in medicine, but also in politics and environmental protection, psychology and relationship issues, industry and consumer protection - and ultimately our health is also closely related to the lifestyle that each one of us chose on his own responsibility. Each of the areas mentioned has a major impact on our health; but making changes to the lifestyle we choose is arguably the most effective change we can make. Therefore, the topics of exercise, nutrition and relationships should be highlighted here; own experiences and insights from work and everyday life also flow into this.

Thomas Crump, "A Brief History of Science: As Seen Through the Development of Scientific Instruments" English | ISBN: 0786709073 | 2001 | 425 pages | PDF | 9 MB From the gnomons and sundials of ancient times to the 26-kilometer underground particle accelerator of the twenty-first century, this fascinating and enlightening volume by mathematician and anthropologist Thomas Crump shows how science has continually redefined the world's horizons, extended the frontiers of knowledge, and advanced human civilization. With sixteen pages of photographs, and vivid vignettes of scientists and their inventions, Crump guides readers through early attempts to measure time and space-from astronomical charts and calendars to Arabic numerals and algebraic notation-before he examines the birth of an essentially modern technology in the 1600s. With Galileo's telescopic exploration of the skies at the beginning of the seventeenth century and Newton's experiments with the prism and light at its end, the optical instruments fundamental to all scientific research had been invented. Crump then proceeds to electromagnets, cathode tubes, thermometers, vacuum pumps, X rays, accelerators, semiconductors, microprocessors, and instruments currently being designed to operate in subzero temperatures. Here, then, in an accessible, succinctly narrated volume, is the enduring human quest for knowledge through technology. Here, too, is the proof that what is knowable is, and has always been, far more compelling than what is known. "[Crump] provides lively summaries of the progress in different fields, and succeeds in breathing new life into familiar stories."-The Economist "Fascinating reading."-Publishers Weekly
