 Ann Brooks, "Women, Politics and the Public Sphere" English | 2019 | pages: 176 | ISBN: 1447330633, 144734135X | PDF | 9,0 mb Women, Politics and the Public Sphere is a socio-historical analysis of the relationship between women, politics and the public sphere. It looks at the fault-lines established in the eighteenth century for later developments in social and political discourse and considers the implications for the political representation of women in the West and globally, highlighting how women public intellectuals now reflect much more social and cultural diversity. Covering the legacy of eighteenth-century intellectual groupings which were dominated by women such as members of the 'bluestocking circles' and other more radical intellectual and philosophical thinkers, the book focuses on women such as Catherine Macaulay and Mary Wollstonecraft. These individuals and groups which emerged in the eighteenth century established 'intellectual spaces' for the emergence of women public intellectuals in subsequent centuries. It also examines women public intellectuals in the US including Samantha Power, Anne-Marie Slaughter, Elizabeth Warren, Condoleezza Rice, Susan Rice, Hillary Clinton and Sheryl Sandberg.  Susan L. Averett, "Women in the Workforce: What Everyone Needs to Know ® " English | ISBN: 0190093390 | 2022 | 252 pages | EPUB | 2 MB An accessible overview of the power of women in the economy and the obstacles they face  Women Pay the Price: Structural Adjustment in Africa and the Caribbean By Gloria Thomas-Emeagwali 1995 | 165 Pages | ISBN: 0865434298 | PDF | 6 MB In this scholarly compilation, a group of Third World researchers argue that IMF/World Bank structural adjustment policies have wreaked havoc on a large percentage of humanity.These studies further show that IMF/World Bank policies have induced or intensified the finalization of poverty and have reversed a great deal of the socioeconomic gains of the post-colonial era of the last thirty years. These studies embrace the research of a multi-disciplinary range of scholars from three continents. The area of focus is Africa and the Caribbean. Among the programs included are the removal of subsidies for health and education, privatization and the various forms of shock therapy with which currency devaluations have been associated. Female-headed households are the most affected by the IMF/World Bank policies. It is pointed out that in terms of land ownership, access to hired labor and services, women find themselves in a vulnerable position. This tendency is clearly manifested in regions as geographically diverse as Nigeria, Zambia, and Trinidad and Tobago.
 Wolff-Parkinson-White and Other Preexcitation Syndromes: Simple to Complex Electrophysiology and Ablation of Accessory Pathways by Ján Hluchý English | November 23, 2022 | ISBN: 3030987485 | True EPUB | 676 pages | 435 MB This book presents the features of Wolff-Parkinson-White and other preexcitation syndromes with detailed discussion of the management and treatment of these patients. Catheter ablation has become a curative first-line treatment for circus movement tachycardias involving accessory pathway conduction. However, diagnostic and interventional challenges may be associated with anatomically and electrophysiologically complex single accessory pathway conduction, multiple accessory pathways, accessory pathways with other coexistent tachycardias, including atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia and atrial tachycardias, and accessory pathways with coexistent congenital heart disease. The complexity involved requires a thorough theoretical and practical knowledge for performing unequivocally conclusive/meaningful electrophysiological testing and successful catheter ablation. This book is based on the author's personal long-term experience and contains over 700 illustrations of intracardiac recordings and fluoroscopic images, as well as clear and user-friendly descriptions of the electrophysiologic data, its analysis and interpretation. It therefore offers a comprehensive practical guide for mapping and catheter ablation. The systematic approach is also invaluable for accessory pathways coexistent with other arrhythmias or congenital heart diseases.  Wittgenstein and Psychoanalysis By John M. Heaton 2000 | 80 Pages | ISBN: 1840461322 | PDF | 2 MB Sigmund Freud and Ludwig Wittgenstein were contemporaries. Freud created psychoanalysis, and Wittgenstein was perhaps the greatest 20th century philosopher. Both thinkers are essentially concerned with illusion and our inveterate tendency to deceive ourselves. Freud approaches this problem from a psychiatric angle the cure of neurosis, psychosis, perversion, and so on. He assumes that his readers are sensible people who can see through the self-deceptions of the neurotics he describes. Wittgenstein, on the other hand, takes an ironical approach to himself and his readers, believing that we are almost certainly deluded, even if we have been analysed by an orthodox analyst. He makes us feel that language, understanding and knowledge are but a thin net over an abyss. "Wittgenstein and Psychoanalysis" brings these two great, enormously influential Viennese thinkers together in the arena of a postmodern encounter. The question at issue is which of these two philosophies is the better form of relevant therapy for us today? Or is it ever a matter of contest between them?
