 Leanne Betasamosake Simpson, "A Short History of the Blockade: Giant Beavers, Diplomacy, and Regeneration in Nishnaabewin " English | ISBN: 1772125385 | 2021 | 88 pages | PDF | 4 MB In A Short History of the Blockade, award-winning writer Leanne Betasamosake Simpson uses Michi Saagiig Nishnaabeg stories, storytelling aesthetics, and practices to explore the generative nature of Indigenous blockades through our relative, the beaver―or in Nishnaabemowin, Amik. Moving through genres, shifting through time, amikwag stories become a lens for the life-giving possibilities of dams and the world-building possibilities of blockades, deepening our understanding of Indigenous resistance as both a negation and an affirmation. Widely recognized as one of the most compelling Indigenous voices of her generation, Simpson's work breaks open the intersections between politics, story, and song, bringing audiences into a rich and layered world of sound, light, and sovereign creativity. A Short History of the Blockade reveals how the practice of telling stories is also a culture of listening, "a thinking through together," and ultimately, like the dam or the blockade, an affirmation of life.  A Short History of Police and Policing by Clive Emsley English | 2021 | ISBN: 0198844603 | 240 pages | True PDF | 2 MB The police are constantly under scrutiny. They are criticized for failings, praised for successes, and hailed as heroes for their sacrifices. Starting from the premise that every society has norms and ways of dealing with transgressors, A Short History of Police and Policing traces the evolution of the multiple forms of 'policing' that existed in the past. It examines the historical development of the various bodies, individuals, and officials who carried these out in different societies, in Europe and European colonies, but also with reference to countries such as ancient Egypt, China, and the USA. By demonstrating that policing was never the exclusive dominion of the police, and that the institution of the police, as we know it today, is a relatively recent creation, Professor Emsley explores the idea and reality of policing, and shows how an institution we now call 'the police' came to be virtually universal in our modern world.

 A Case-Based Approach to Knee Pain by Michelle Leong, Grant Cooper, Joseph E. Herrera, Peter Murphy English | 2022 | ISBN: 3031153553 | 337 pages | True PDF EPUB | 30.54 MB  A Brief Guide to Academic Bullying English | 2022 | ISBN: 9814877794 | 121 Pages | PDF (True) | 4.4 MB Targets of bullying are often the most vulnerable members of the scientific workforce-they may be low-paid graduate students or postdocs, living in a foreign country, navigating a foreign language and culture, and whose immigration status is tied directly to their employment. They may also have young families, be living paycheck-to-paycheck, and have health insurance and other benefits that depend on a contract position that can be revoked with little to no notice or cause. Finally, targets on the low end of a power differential are not likely to be supported by their institutions, particularly institutions that rely on the big grant earnings brought in by senior "bullies." This book is a brief guide to the causes of academic bullying and to their solutions.  A Brief Apocalyptic History of Psychoanalysis: Erasing Trauma by Carlo Bonomi and Peter L.
